Good Friday Morning, Crew!

:donut::hi:
Welcome to the Friday edition of the Early Morning Crew thread! :bounce::woohoo: We made it to Friday...now we just have to make it through today's work shift and the weekend will be upon us! :bounce: I hope you had a good day yesterday. Mine certainly was interesting! Our DM was there when I arrived and she was her regular ol jolly, laughing self. Right after I got there...things started to get broken. We had an employee working on a glass shelving unit and she didn't have the shelf clips in tight enough, and one of the glass shelves fell, hitting the shelf below it, and both of them shattered into a trillion little pieces! I'm telling you it went EVERYWHERE! No one got hurt, but it surely was a mess! Then, a customer knocked over a glass top table and THAT broke into pieces! Out came the brooms again. Finally, to top it all off, a storm came through Tallahassee and we had a nice long power outtage. It was when the power went out that our DM said she was going to leave before the building fell down or exploded something! :rofl:

My General Manager is on vacation starting today, and so the store has been handed over to me for the next 8 days! So, I'm going to be a busy boy next week.

Are you ready to get this day started so we can get to the weekend that much faster? I hope you are, because here we go! :bounce:

:hi:
It's good to see you this morning! :bounce: I saw in your thread that you awoke at 4am today. IS that typical for you?

Also listening to the coyotes howling in woods across the street. I hope all the cats are in their houses, coyotes like cats.

Yeah, I hope all the cats are inside too! By the way, I just added you to the Early Morning Crew roster! Your name will be in there starting in the morning! :woohoo::bounce::party: Welcome to the Crew, my dear! :hug:

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

I saw one of the coyotes last weekend when I was walking my dog, got some video.

We have a lot of wildlife around here, poor things are losing their space.

I think a coyote got the kitten's mother, that would explain why she never came back for the kitten.

And I'm happy to have you as part of my crew! :bounce: I'd love to have all the wildlife around my place...I'm sure it's interesting as hells. But, I'd really have to watch all the pets.

she wanted some fresh food. She never came back and her baby is in the house.

I have fenced in yard and my other cat stays in the yard so everyone is safe.

My dog is not happy with the coyotes, all the neighbor dogs are barking right now.

I'm sorry to hear the poor kittens mother never came back. I think you're probably right...the coyotes got her. :cry: Is the kitten doing OK though? I assume you had to feed it with a bottle and stuff..

I did get some baby animal milk from the pet store, she likes the bottle.

Now I have two kittens, I went from having one old cat to three cats in just a few weeks.

Animals know to come to my house.

Animals seem to know where her house is and they ALL appear on her front porch sooner or later! :rofl: I'm glad you're taking care of the little thing. :hug:

playing with my other kitten. My old cat isn't happy, he just got used to the older kitten. Now he has to be a foster father to two kittens, he is given me some looks.

My dog is helping with the kittens, she sleeps with them. She is a happy dog.

Looks or no looks! :rofl: Even the dog is getting into the act! :woohoo: That's wonderful!

I think it is the Collie and German Shepherd in her, she is very protective of the kittens.

But I'm SO happy to hear it! It must be cute as hells! :loveya:

mother. The kittens climb all over my dog, she plays with them.

I don't need to get a babysitter, I have a four footed one.

My dog is the same with little kids and old people, very sweet and protective.

:bounce:
I'm SO happy to hear all that!

:hi:
You're number one today, Man! :bounce: How are ya?

You? :hi:

Having some coffee and waking up with all my friends here on DU! :bounce: Do you have any big plans for today?

Maybe read something. :shrug:

Of course, I do need to start packing for my move.

Wow. Everybody is moving! Yes, if you're going to move soon, you probably should get started. Packing sucks, Man!

try not to put it off for TOO long or you'll turn around and it will be moving day with absolutely nothing packed! :rofl:

:woohoo:

How many do I have to post in before I get put on The List? :shrug:

:hi:
Usually, when you hit three, I add you to the Crew roster! But, if you're planning to continue to come in and say Good Morning to us, I'll add you right now! :bounce: And I'd be happy to have you in the Crew, Man! :bounce:

Good Morning! :hi:

Good morning! :hi:

I just added you to the crew roster and you'll be in there starting in tomorrows thread! :bounce: Welcome to the Early Morning Crew, my friend! :woohoo::party:

:bounce:

With all the work I'm doing on my animation project (not even out of necessity, just because I want to), I might make tomorrow's thread, too! :woohoo:

:bounce::party::woohoo:
You're welcome to come in EVERY SINGLE DAY, Man! It'll be great to see you here with us!

My project is currently best described as "orgasmically great."

Seriously, even though I only have fourteen seconds of it completed, it is mind-blowingly AWESOME!!!! :bounce: :party: :woohoo:

I AM FREAKING GOD!!

(Can you tell I'm a little excited about this? :D)

That's OK though...all of that is hard work I'm sure and when it comes out so good it feels awesome! Congrats, Zombie! When you get it finished, I'd LOVE to see it! :bounce:

You didn't take my advice too seriously and O.D. on coffee and Red Bull did you? :scared:

I'm just pumped because this thing is so unimaginably perfect it blows my mind. Even at low frame rate it looks incredible. It also synchs up absolutely perfectly with the music I picked out, too. :bounce:

Congratulations. :toast:

It's always a good feeling when the vague ideas floating round one's head can come to a crystalisation in a perfect solution.

I bet it really is a damn fine animation too. :bounce:

....a nice long weekend.

Just be sure to take a moment to remember those who fell fighting for this country.:patriot: It's because of them that we can still fight and speak out without being thrown in prison or worse.:patriot:

Doesn't sound to me like your boss brings very good luck with her. It's a good think she left when she did because otherwise you may not have a job to go to today. Now that the DM is gone I hope everything is back to normal again. At least no one got hurt, that's the important thing. You'll do a lot better though. Hey, maybe you and her should switch jobs.:bounce: :applause:

:hugs: to everyone. :grouphug:

:hi:
Yes, she DID say that she brought a lot of bad luck with her this time and we all had a good laugh! :rofl: Everything is back to normal now thank all the gods! Good morning! :hi:

Wow, it sounds like you had a "bull in a China shop" sort of day. :rofl: I hope your weekend goes a little...no, a LOT better.


Nothing much is going on here. In fact, nothing is going on here. Life right now is so ordinary it's boring. :boring: Could be worse though....

:hi::hug:
Yeah, we sure did have one of "those" days! :rofl: I'm sure the weekend will be better. We haven't had stuff broken like that in one day in ages and ages, so I'm sure it was just a fluke.

:hi:
Are you staying out of trouble, young man?

airsealed themselves as enourmous alarms went off.

It was not my fault btw.

But it was pretty freaky.

(The reason for the nutter doors is that the chem section I was in was for the very advanced only, thus if something goes wrong it could be for all the wrong reasons)

Did you ever find out what happened that they shut, locked and airsealed themselves? Sounds like something out of Stephen King's "The Stand"!

explosives & toxic gasses have to be prevented. (We use the fire escape).

That is one safe lab though. Fire extinguishers everywhere, fire blankets, emergency showers, you name it they have it.

:scared:
I'm glad to hear it's such a safe lab! :bounce:

That was the other thing! Me 'n my lab partner this week made the finest dodecanol based sulfonate detergent our demonstrator had ever seen! He was walking around with it showing all the other experiments too!

I'm sure you got an "A" for THAT one! :bounce:

but I'm off on Sunday. Haven't really made any plans yet...I'll just play it by ear and see what comes up! I'm doing fine, thank you!

than to play by rear!

;)

Which reminds me, has the EMC ever been locked?

Thank all the gods! I've had to have one deleted and started a second one before because it was so large it took forever to load...but it's never been locked.

Someone said something to me about it in this thread.

No...never heard that before...what'd they say about it?

well apparently.

I've never read one of them, so I am making a judgment on them without any basis or knowledge. They are immensely popular here!

except you don't actually believe what you say.

So, they were popular because they contained recipes for MIND ALTERING DRUGS, I say.

Or perhaps Evil Atheist Conspiracy mind control?

Make up your own theory!

I can tell you more positively afterwards. I'll let you know...:rofl:

stupid crystal ball! :argh:

so don't feel bad. You're in good company, Mate.

but we should probably take them back for a refund! :rofl: Time to get going, Random! I'll see you in the morning! :hi:

Snape is for once, genuinely pleased.
:hi:

Snape is the hard taskmaster Potions professor at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

That Harry Potter stuff...I know nothing about it. :shrug:

:rofl:
That's what I say! :rofl:

Is what I say when bieng chased by hordes of angry buffalo that are on fire when I need to warn people about it.

Let me try again.

Congratulations on your really excellent achievement and for the great positive feedback you got from the demonstrator. :applause:

i'm at the start of my three day weekend

yay!

hope your friday is good!!!

:bounce:

:hi:
I hope you have a great three day weekend too! Do you have any big plans?

plus a bbq with my best girl who is over from germany for a week for her brother's graduation

i just hope to feel human before monday comes

:rofl:

not sure which yet

:rofl:

You'll be under the table if you don't watch it! :rofl:

:rofl:

Well hey...if you *like* it under there! :rofl: I myself don't drink at ALL...well...coffee. I got drunk once. When I was 23. It sucked BIG TIME. HAven't touched booze since!

I'm glad no one was hurt yesterday!

:hi::hug:
I'm glad too! Although, after so much got broken, we all had a good laugh, including our DM! How are YOU today?

use the complementary coffee that's in the room. :scared:

Still though...when I'm at a hotel that has a maker in the room...I go ahead and make it and THEN go down and get some more! :rofl: What city are you in now?

Phil is brave. He is making coffee. My taste buds may need the rest of the day off.

How are you? You're way down south, now, aren't you? :hi:

I've had to use some of that coffee before just to help me out the door! Then I can go find some better stuff! I hope you're enjoying your travels! :loveya:

All of the beach-front hotels are being replaced with condos. The charm is gone!

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Are you down here now? :bounce: Did you have a good trip? :bounce:

I can't believe this place. x(

We had supper at Shula's last night and that was awesome. It's great seeing Phil again.

:hi:

Sounds like you had some fun there. :eyes:

All's good here - managed to have a nice long lie-in. :D But I'm still already showered, dressed, fed and coffeed.

C.D. Masters on Radio 3 playing at the moment, but about to get turned off because the presenter irritates me. I don't recognise the actual piece itself - very 19th century, probably German, but I can't get any closer than that.

:hug:

:hi::hug:
I'm glad to see you this morning and I'm happy you got to sleep in a little today! We ALL need that sometimes. What is it about the presenter on Radio 3 that irritates you? His voice?

with a certain je ne sais quoi which I don't really like. The voice of a radio presenter is particularly important - can be wonderful or terrible.

I've heard some particularly bad ones too and when they're bad...they make the whole experience awful!

For example, I'm strongly in favour of what is variously called "period instrument" "authentic performance" and many other terms. This basically argues that when a composer wrote music, he had an instrument in mind, and so when we perform it the instrument used should be as similar to that which the composer had in mind as possible.

For example, the piano is a fairly modern instrument - most of the earlier works which are commonly played on piano were written for harpsichord (which sounds very different). So those of us who favour period instruments would suggest that they should be played on harpsichords, rather than on pianos.

He seems to fall into the old-school notion that the modern instruments are the best (being the most modern) so we should play all music on them.

I agree with you, TJ! If the piece was written for the harpsichord it should be played on one! That way, you can hear it as the composer meant it to sound!

:hi: :hug:

:hi:

How are things with you?

:hug:

We don't know anything more on my father and it is tough to wait.

How is your day going? I see you got to sleep in. :woohoo:

:loveya:

I'm in a jolly merry mood.

Unfortunately I've got to vanish now, so I can't stay and chat with my chums here. x(

Let us know how things go with your father - I lit a candle for him at Mass yesterday. :hug: :loveya:

:loveya:

:hi: :hug:

Been thinking about you and your dad.:grouphug: Good vibes, thoughts, prayers are coming your way. :hug:

Sorry I missed your reply the other day (my head is falling off, I think). I'm moving next Friday. Won't be around for a few days after that. I will try to come to the morning thread before we get everything unhooked.

me. :hug: :loveya: DUers are the best. I hope everything goes smoothly. :) :loveya:

Please PM me with updates if you have time and think of it. I'm not here enough to catch all the threads lately and would sure hate to miss the one where he's all better. :hug: :loveya:

I've learned something about this move ... it's worth it to pay THEM to pack all the stuff. I don't think we saved much money at all by doing it ourselves. :shrug: Anyway, I hope things go smoothly for your, too. :hug:

:hi::hug:
I'm glad to see you today, my dear! :loveya:

:hug: :loveya:

How are you darlin???? Nice to see you

Forgive me, but I'm feeling like a silly girl right now. But I will share this with you:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x5202256

Hope all is well with you. :loveya:

:hi::hug:
It's good to see you too this morning, sweetie pie! :loveya: I'm doing just fine, thank you! HAving some coffee and waking up with my friends and Crew here on DU! Life is good! :bounce: I'll go check out that post...

far more that I ever have done, and for the beauty of this place we call home. :loveya:

Beautiful! :loveya: I have GOT to come see Seattle sometime! :bounce:

But I promise, Seattle is just as beautiful, and you and your love are welcome here ANY time! :loveya:

I saw that it was Oregon...silly me! :silly: Thank you for the invite, my dear! I'd love to come visit you and the rest of Seattle! :bounce: Maybe you could take us on a tour!

You are most welcome. And I will be so happy to be the tour guide for the city I love so much! :hug:

We'll have to plan that sometime, and I'll let you know! :bounce: That would be SO much fun, wouldn't it?! :bounce:

Any time you and your love can make it out here, I'll be most happy to be Tour Guide!!


:loveya: :bounce: :loveya:

:rofl:
I would absolutely LOVE that, my dear! :loveya:

You mean, it's near time for us girls to Bounce Our Boobies???

Woohooooo! :bounce: :bounce:

Well no, that's not what I meant...but it sounds fun! :rofl::rofl:

Or thus sayeth Randi Rhodes!!!

Bounce 'em if ya got 'em!!

:bounce: :bounce:





(Don't you go laughin' at my boobies, now!)

Clintmax, TJ, Swimboy...Hope you're all having a great morning

:hi:

Sounds nasty - early in on a Friday.

All's going well here today thanks.

:hug:

:hi:
Early Fridays, huh? That would be OK with me...the day would over early and then I could start my long weekend earlier! :bounce: Maybe THIS will help somewhat...

I always like seeing pictures of TJ when he first wakes up!




:rofl:

Well, if THAT'S the way he looks when he first gets up, I'm going to have to make a trip to Britian! :rofl:

T.J. looks nothing like that when he first wakes up.

It would take several years of hard work for T.J. to look like that.

:rofl:

I hope they let you leave early too. That'd be only fair.

Great to see you! :hi:

Have a great weekend! :hug:

Clint in Charge! It's always interesting to see what happens when you find yourself having to "boss" your co-workers around. Good experience for you. Tampa is trying hard to get the repug 08 convention. Horrors. In this area, that would put the ratio of repugs to dems into beyond gag proportions.

:hi:
I have to do that every time she goes on vacation, so this isn't the first time for me. I enjoy it! I hope Tampa loses out on the repug convention, Dude. That would completely suck. x( I hope you have a great day today!

are you having a memorial day sale at your store?
:hi::hug:

:hi::hug:
Yes, we surely are! It actually started on Monday and goes through Memorial day! :bounce: How's every little thing with YOU?

for an average white girl...

I'm doing good for an average white boy! So, we're a pair you and I! :bounce:

:donut: :hi: :hug:

Good thing no one was hurt with all that glass breaking! DM was right to leave when she did. :rofl:

I'm still half asleep, but trying to wake up. Another gloomy day is on the horizon. x(

:hi::hug:
I was glad to see her go too, let me just tell ya! Funny thing though...after she left, all the bad things stopped happening! :rofl::rofl: Is it the weather that's making it gloomy? We're supposed to have sunny and 92 today up here in Tallahassee!

:rofl:

Yep, it's the weather. Been raining for days now ... not constantly, but it's all cloudy and dreary. We're supposed to have a BBQ with Joani tomorrow, but I think we'll have to go to plan B. We went for months without a drop of rain and it's all coming at once now. :( I hope it doesn't rain next Friday. :scared:

and it sure came down yesterday! But none today. Sunny and hot. Just like I like it! I hope it doesn't rain next Friday for you also! Who wants to move in the rain? :shrug:

I counted them up in my head when I was doing stuff yesterday. And I have NEVER moved in the rain! I sure hope this isn't the first time ... what will happen to my piano? :scared: :cry:

I like it sunny and hot, too, but the humidity has been getting to me lately. Guess I've been hanging around harleydad too long. :shrug:

Good gods! That's WAY too many, my dear! :scared: I hate moving SO much...I can't imagine that many times. Yes, the humidity can get to ANYONE, even me. :rofl: It feels sometimes like one is swimming through the air.

It'll be an even 20 when we get into the new, FINAL house. Ten of the moves happened when I was a kid (Army brat) and the rest happened after we got married ... the old Methodist "circuit rider" deal and then working for I've Been Moved (IBM), although I asked for that one. One good thing is that it keeps the house cleaned out. They actually use the length of time you've been in a place as a factor in estimating the cost of the move -- the longer you're their, the more junk you have. :rofl:

It DOES feel like swimming through the air! And with my breathing problems, it's sometimes hard to actually breathe it in. I'm anxious to get up to where it's a little easier to breathe.

I just can't imagine. :scared: Hopefully, once you get up to Tennessee, it WILL be easier for you, my dear! :hug:

I'm a little nervous about living alone and out of town. Might have to break down and get another dog. You should be seeing a LOT of me then, unless I find so much to do I don't have time to come to DU. :rofl:

One thing I am looking forward to is the huge yards, even in the rental house. I'm deathly allergic to fragranced laundry products and our neighbor's dryer vent is 10 feet away from my patio ... blows directly into the patio and chases me inside every time she starts up her dryer. If I fight it and stay outside with it, I'm sick for the rest of the day. x( And I LOVE being outdoors! So that part will be great! :bounce:

We get the Arm&Hammer detergent that is fragrance free and the Bounce dryer sheets that are as well. I got tired of smelling like bounce all the time. I'll be glad to see you here even more then when you get up there and get settled in! :bounce:

You could live next door to me and I wouldn't get sick when you did your laundry! :bounce: Smart thing you did -- those fragrance chemicals are really toxic and people don't even know it. :cry:

Yeah, now if only we could get my laptop fixed. I was looking at the Apple website the other day. That's what I'm getting next. I have bought my last Dell EVER. It still boots up, but the display goes crazy after a few hours and then it has to cool down for several hours before it'll work again. I need to run diagnostics on it again, but I've been too busy. Guess I'll put the PC in a central location in the new place, just in case.

I was sorry to hear about how bad Dell has become. I was thinking about going with one for my next computer...but not now. x( I hate computer problems, any kind. x(

He's a slow learner, apparently (also a repug). He had trouble with his new computer a few years ago and had to take it to the Best Buy geeks to get it fixed. Then he bought a Dell DJ and couldn't get his music loaded on it ... couldn't even get the software installed. Dell was useless with that after several hours of phone calls, so I got it going for him. (BTW, my iPod worked fine right out of the box!) Then he just bought my sister a new Dell computer and it had so many problems she was ready to send it back the first week -- only they said they wouldn't take it back! She had to spend hours on the phone getting it fixed. He still thinks Dell is the best. :shrug: Like I said, slow learner. :shrug:

I'm glad I didn't go with them first!

What's funny is that I could probably get my laptop fixed for under $500, but I'm already looking at buying a new Apple for probably about $1500. I guess I'm afraid I'll have spent that much once I start replacing parts and then I still won't have a warranty. I read somewhere that the Dell laptops are designed to wear out after a few years. :scared:

:rofl:
Don't try to replace parts...THAT'S a never ending mess. It's best to just move to a better one.

I'll be taking up a collection for it now. :rofl:

Computers are damned expensive for the short amount of time they last and aren't obsolete. x(

I have several errands to run before I have to go to work. It's always good to start my mornings with you! Thank you for being here with me! :loveya:

You gotta go just when I'm getting started. :cry: That's OK. I hope you have a great day. Don't forget the Cat Attract when you do your errands. (I'm a shameless nag! :rofl:)

Thank YOU for being here with me! :loveya: :hug: :hi:

and I have to go. I guess I could stay around for a little while longer...

Remember the song she used to sing at the end?

I'm so glad we had this time together
Just to have a laugh and sing a song.
Seems we just get started and before you know it
Comes the time we have to say so long.

... or something like that.

You're gonna stay longer? :bounce: :woohoo:

I loved the Carol Burnett show! The Mrs.Wiggins bit has hilarious and I'd crack up every time THEY started laughing in the middle of it too! Well...I really *need* to get around...so I should be getting along.

I need to be getting along, too. Time to un-mount the toaster oven and can opener today, plug up the holes, etc. Just puttering-type of things.

Have a WONDERFUL day, my friend! :loveya: :hug:

Try not to work too hard! :hug::loveya:

Damn! Seems forever and a day since I've seen you! :loveya: :hi: :loveya:

Nice to see you! I gotta get me to thee bed afore I fall over, but I'm so glad I ran into you! :loveya:

BTW: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x5202256

Okay, a bit egotistical, but I can't help it. I was just drawn that way! :rofl:

I've been here in the mornings, but that's about it. I miss all my friends here. :cry: :loveya: :grouphug:

Just saw your pic thread ... beautiful! And not egotistical at all!

BTW, we're moving next Friday, so don't worry if you don't see me around for a few days. We won't be hooked up again until the following Monday or Tuesday.

I was real disappointed when it turned out yesterday WASN'T Friday! :rofl: Now that crazy time is over, I'm having a ball at work.

Sorry about the poltergeist(s) at your store. It was good of the visitor to jokingly take the blame for all the disasters and call herself the Jonah.

Three-day weekend coming up! :bounce:

We put the rental house up on craigslist Richmond and we're getting calls already. It was free and we could post four pictures. It must be putting a hurting on the standard classifieds. (If you want to see it, look for 812 West Clay Street posted on Wed. May 24)

I'm looking to relax this weekend and go through some of the piles of paper that are sitting around. Where does this shit come from, an angry junk mail fairy? :rofl:

Have a great day today, Cap'n! :hug: :hi:

:hi:

Things sound good in your corner of the world.

Do you get a long week-end as well? Sounds good to me.

:hug: :loveya:

:hi::hug:
I have days like that too, where it *feels* like a different day, and then I'm all disappointed that it isn't the one I *thought* it was! So, you're not alone there.

I'll go check out the Craigslist! I love that site!

I hope you have a great day too, my friend!

:donut:


:hi:

:hi::hug:
It's great to see you today, my dear! :loveya:

I have a few errands to run before I go to work and I'm never going to get them all done if I don't get started! Take care of each other! :grouphug: And I'll see everyone in the morning! :bounce:

Clint

Am I in time to say Good morning?!

:hug:

:loveya::hug:
Good morning, good morning! I'm glad you caught me!

:hug: :loveya:

Have a fantastic day. :)

:hi::hug::loveya:
Sorry we don't get to talk more today! :hug:

I slept late. :D

:hug: :hi:

I usually try to on Sundays, but most times I wake up early as usual.

but I couldn't fall asleep until nearly 4am. x(

I've no idea why. :silly:

I hate that shit! :mad::grr:

Now I'll be dragging my ass all day. :boring: :D

Which I hope you do! Talk to you tomorrow, my dear! I'm off!

Ugh...what a night. Ginsberg, one of the cats, came home barely able to walk and his leg was ripped open and bleeding. So it was off to the vet ER at around 2am. It turns out it had been an old bite/scratch that had gotten an aggressive infection (he was fine a couple hours before) and ruptured. They gave him a heavy duty antibiotic shot there and sent him home with more antibiotics. His leg is just awful to look at and he can barely walk. It's rough seeing a young, hyper cat so lamed up.

Another SR trailer came out with Xmen The Last Stand, but I have yet to find a decent download of it...:( sorry...
