Just trying to cheer up a dreary day.

And how come I was the only one online last night. Had to get out ot 9:00 when my son needed the machine. What time do you folks get here. I was very lonely and had to find ways to amuse myself. That's not right.

1. Hey TayTay
I decided to watch none of it. I just can't I'll be in and out during the day. I know what you mean. It's a day that we need to "get by with a little help from our friends" :hug:

I got on around 9, and there was little activity. I felt out of sorts without you all to talk to.

3. I'll be here...
I might have to hop off occasionally to do things, but I'll be around. and I'll stay up a bit to hang with.

7. Me too.
I'd avoided thinking about what today would be like, but I'm so much sadder than I'd imagined I'd be.

Here's my mantra today: Don't be a pussy. Okay, I admit it. John's a lot tougher than I'll ever be.

On the other hand, how much you want to bet Teresa's yelling at her tv today?? ;-)

4. I'm just not going to ask what you did to amuse yourself
;)

But I was here until two a.m. PST. I'm generally not online between 6:00 and 8:00 PST due to my commute.

5. I was on and off.
Sometimes I feel the same way. Had my house to myself last night, and was luxuriating in the freedom.

Guess what my daughter did? She went to Drinking Liberally last night in Boston after her class. Had a great time. Overabundance of guys there (she said only 3 girls), but a very nice group. Very young and friendly.

6. Because of school and whatnot
I sometimes can't get on until 10 or 11 central time. Looks like it'll be that way again tonight - got an Illini basketball game to go to.

8. Good luck!
I hope that Illini at Champaign-Urbana in the not flat part of Illinois wins. I will be here in Boston, seeing if they throw another terrorist alert at us.

Personally, I think it was just a warning shot because JK and Kennedy are going to vote against Condi next week. The White House is saying, "Vote against us again and we will destroy Cambridge." I wouldn't put it passed them.

9. Well...
I honestly don't put 9/11 past them. :tinfoilhat: LIHOP? MIHOP? I really can't say I think it's impossible.

And I certainly hope the Illini win. We ARE the number one ranked college basketball team in the nation. However, we are definitely in the flat part of Illinois. You have to drive at least two hours to encounter hills.

Well, off to a pre-game dinner... wearing my black "Vote Kerry" shirt (game or no, I'm in mourning). I'll see you on tonight perhaps?

Pick: Friday or Saturday. I can go late on either night.
