Alright, what brings you to the Lounge this Saturday night?
It's almost 7:30 where I am, snow all over the streets...I don't get out much this time of the year, and I don't like television...

I might have a date or two lined up in the near future, but that won't be for a while...

So hows about you, what brings you here? :hi:

2. I am home alone,
blissful peace. I should practice but am procrastinating. I need to do laundry but do not want to. In essence I am sitting here being a lazy bones and enjoying it! :hi:

15. A nap!
I had not thought of that option! I think I will just plotz over right here on the couch instead of getting up. Push the Lab outta the way and there is plenty of room. Great idea. Thanks.

20. You should entertain us all
with your pictures! That would be fun and I could tell myself that I had to wait for pictures before I could practice. Yes. Are they digital?

31. I glad you like my picture threads...
I hope you don't have dial up though...

I showed the same thread to my Brother in Laws Mother earlier today and it took almost 20 minutes for all the pictures to load...

33. Nope, cable.
For now, when we move to the farm we will have to deal with DSL. I love the photos. They are beautiful with the snow, even though sad to see the abandonment. BTW, you are a cutie!

36. I love the color composition myself...
Edited on Sat Mar-12-05 08:26 PM by Longgrain
The vast fields of rich blue at the top, with the long stretches of white at the bottom.

Add to that the splash of pink or green down the center and...

Wait!

I'm a cutie?

Unfortunately you're not the first DUer to tell me that...:7

38. The sky was especially
blue and beautiful, the contrast was very nice. What, you don't like cute? Seriously, I am old enough to be your mother so anyone your age is cute rather than handsome I guess. :shrug: For the record, my boys hate it when I call them cute but they just put up with it. :hi:

My wife and daughter are in the other room watching the Cat in the Hat movie, and I am sitting here surfing the lounge and watching the Capitol Gang and screaming at Novak (Douchebag of Liberty)..

10. I'm tired.
The last couple of weeks I've felt like shit. I've got this middle ear imbalance noise and I'm dragging my ass. Plus it's snowing.

I would like to have gone out to a movie, say, but don't have the energy. The GF is snoozing on the couch and channel surfing.

It's really quite lame.

27. I don't want to go in tonight.
It's been pretty slow lately. Tonight is the part-time job. I think my next day off is in another three weeks (not joking).

29. It's almost 5:00 here and I just got home from work.
I'll be out on the road again at 4:30 a.m. tomorrow, working again. I don't really have weekends, so unwinding in the Lounge is a frequent occurence.
