I've thought of a way to get out of Maine (two degrees was our high temp today)

I need to cyber-date somebody who lives in Oregon, preferably Ashland; or else in southwestern Washington State. Or parts of California or anywhere in any country where "cold" is zero degrees celsius. Will this work? Any suggestions e.g. pretend I don't come with three kids - send photoshopped pics of my head with Angelina Jolie's body instead of my own - claim to have great wealth...?? It's too cold and lonely here :scared:

On edit: Now I have to go into my frigid kitchen (no insulation on the outer wall, WTF?) and make something to eat. How I suffer....

I'd go for south of the border somewhere

go for the Caymans

or somewhere even farther south

but if I go too far south I can't grow peaches and that'd be a crime.

That's where you can go and grow lots of things!

You grow them, I'll help you get them shipped (I have connections right now in the shipping industry, may not have them soon, nah, money is money!)

:hi:

In this vision however, I'm not actually working but growing for personal consumption. Cash; I need cash AND warmth.

you have field hands growing for cash

you have a big garden in the valley

:shrug:

then you have cash and garden

cash and garden

and cash and garden

and a way to get your cash crops out and shipped

and a garden

and cash

did I say cash? and a garden?

Off to cook now. :rofl:

facelift included

too cold and rainy to go do field work today. The high was 44, I think. :scared:

Forty-four degrees. *snort*

There are people here from LA who put on a coat and scarf when the temperature hits 70! :o

I grew up on the west coast, in Vancouver and then in Oregon. I'm currently negotiating to go live with a mike_c in Humboldt, CA. Keep your fingers crossed!

His lab is the center of all goodness at the school he teaches at. :D

Something to do with feminine freshness...

20 degrees right now which feels like kind of a heat wave after the zeros.

I'll give you cold and lonely....:scared:

You are not allowed to go on cyber-dates without me tagging along as the ugly friend you need to set up. Just tell them that I have a really good sense of humor.

:rofl:

to send pictures of you instead of me... a "Cyrano" scenario, if you will. He will fall in love with my voice and written word (because you ain't allowed to make a peep!) and when we meet, I pretend I've had extensive cosmetic surgery :) Thanks, my dear friend!

and nice legs!

:hug:

and you aren't ugly by any stretch!

How many men dream of having a cyber menage-a-trois with you and Crimson?

Do tell... :) Crim son and I will be very happy to entertain that notion. We will need applications (notarized) and a full physical exam.

Signature:_______Prag___________________ Date:___________Today________

And I think you know why :P

I only lied on every answer except #9... Where I was entirely full of truthiness.

Be very careful... there's a lot riding on your response hehe

So, I chose what seemed to be the warmest answer.

Truth be told I'd excuse myself and rush out into the cold cold night air and freeze to
death leaving a substantial estate to some lucky beneficiary.

What's yer address?:smoke:

Nah, I don't smoke, but I might start.

Before we go swapping salutations.

First things first.

Don't you want me Baby?

Rrrow!

Arrrooo!

Hotcha!

Arf!

( :rofl: )

It's having kids... it does it to you every time (makes you grow a beard) :rofl:

Not to worry.

I've been wanting one of those power tweezers I keep seeing on those TeeVee Infomercials
anyway.

We'll run you through the full spa treatment... I'm sure you'll clean up just fine!

A new dress... Run a comb through your... uh, locks. A facial (or two) Maybe a visit
to a electrolosis center(or two) and you'll be in the pink again.

I love to be pampered! :*

That is BNL's exclusively.

Can't have everyone going around nit picking! Lemme tell ya!

Maybe she will pick my nits too.

I've already sent her all of my personal financial information to process.

Her and the Honorable Sir Mister Doctor Professor Raul Bumbaumbwe Esq. of Nigeria with whom
I have a discreet business deal regarding the Late Half-brother of a Widowed Widower
who was killed ship board by a falling aircraft.

*greedily rubs hands together chuckling*

Uh, where *is* she anyway? Haven't heard a peep since like #17.

She'll be back!

:loveya:

*stomps feet* I go away for a little while and look what happens....

I can't trust either of you two. x(

You need to resend the financial information, it must have gotten lost in the mail.

And then you must TOUCH MY MONKEY!!! :(|)

Uh, we weren't doing anything... Really! Honest!

Except extolling Lysol Brand Disinfectant's darker side.

:rofl:

As to touching your monkey... Mark a spot, baby! ;)

No really...:7

That is just too cute!

I gotta get me some monkey!

Next to me...in bed...come and get 'em. :evilgrin:




;)

Why that lil' rascal!

Here I am sleeping in a pile of branches!

;)

No tree top nest of branches here, just warm sheets, blankets and pillows. :) And all the bananas they can eat!

:thumbsup:

I love her too :loveya:

I'm feeling like a big pile of smoooooshiness and may burst into a rounding rendition of Kumbaya (sp) and cry and then say "I love ya man! No serioushly, I lurve you. hic." and then pass out nekkid in the bathtub...

Now do you really want to see that?





;) :loveya: :hug:

you know I do! I would find a pillow, place it under your head and cover you tenderly with a blanket. :loveya: :hug: :loveya:

...but not without taking a few blackmail appropriate pictures first, right? :rofl:

Unless I can't find a job.

They wouldn't pay the rent.

I miss all the fun stuff.

You are too funny monkey man! :rofl:

If you could live with that maybe we could get something going.

:rofl:

I'm pretty easygoing when it comes to physical appearance so I'm sure there would be no problem there. Hmmm. What do you drive? :P

wannabe.

I'm not sure. The emblem fell off years ago, along with the rest of the trim.
If you really want to know I can look for it in what's left of the back seat.

;)

Oh no not my monkey man....

:cry:


oooo-oooo-aahhh-ahhh *sniffle*

I'm never picking nits off your back EVAH again!

preening relationship.

I always save the best nits for you!

*sulk*

I'm totally interested in trying to figure out what your car is. Nit picking? I'm in!

Still haven't heard back from BNL, tho.

We don't accept just anybody. Or did I just say we do?

BNL. All your nits are hers, prag :hi:

although lately it has been serious winter too.

physically active, though. It ain't gonna happen :)

is outdoorsy

So I wouldn't be much of a catch :)

okay, cooking now

You are the #1 contender :loveya:

:hug:

hint, hint.

But I think our high was only 20 something. Plus I bought a big house on purpose just in case I had a girlfriend with child move in. I have two bedrooms and a bathroom and basement that I really do not use (except for my newish dog who still thinks the basement is a toilet).

But realistically I do not even think there is room for one more person here. I am just too disorgandized, plus I still own about 1/3 of a bookstore.

I'm four people, at least to start :) I don't necessarily have to move in... I just need a good reason to leave.

Night time temps can get down to freezing, but usually not more that a dozen or so times all winter. Plus I have a nice cozy fire. And a hot tub.

Your move.

As long as your middle initial isn't J, let's talk.

:rofl:

never can be to sure...

:rofl:

Nope, my middle initial is A.

He was booted and you might have been his unnatural resurrection! Humboldt, huh? I had a friend who went to school there... environmental studies or something like that.

The other Mike C. I mean.

If your friend studied environmental biology it was my dept-- if it was in the last ten years he/she likely knows me. We also have an environmental engineering dept.

Come visit in MA!! :bounce:

Westwood and a ex-boss/good friend in Allston. I should come down, shouldn't I? :P :bounce:

:bounce:

:D

I lived in Boston for three years and I got around, baby! I'll come if you all are nice to me :) :bounce:

we live right on the Red Line :D

We like to drink, smoke, watch reality tv, cook like maniacs...Good things :D

Not really. That was my line when I lived in the city and jerks asked me what I did for a living. Scared them away very quickly. I think it would be a party to meet you guys :D

without an exit strategy! Now look where we are! LOL

was NO SNOW. Within eighteen months, here I was :(

Where in Maine are you, anyhow?

Beautiful Downtown Bangor! :rofl: I want to visit you! We all need to get together somehow.

Yes, we need to hook up.

We would meet and I'd scare you :hug: But we will meet.

:rofl: I'M SO TOTALLY NORMAL that you won't believe it. Only on DU do I let my angst hang out like dirty underwear on a prominent clothesline.

I might bring out the worst in you. Look what I've done to REV and Ava.
:rofl:

I'm sick and tired of being good which is why I often screw up on Friday nights. I was discussing this recently with the STBE and he said that he doesn't give compliments easily. (NO SHIT) It made me think, is that why I'm going out dressed up like a hooker every Friday? Probably.

P.S. I don't dress like a hooker.
