You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.

Why? Why wouldn't it open? Why did it hate me?

Why?????

Oh well, I wouldn't have known what to call it anyway. I strain my brain enough with pic thread names.

Oh, it's not really anything new. Just worries that haven't gone away. I'm sure most folk already know all or most of it; don't really wanna unload on everybody.

*edit* Hehehe, that's a very pretty lullabye, though. And better than hearing I'm gonna fall out of a tree...

Does anyone remember who sings it? I can see the guy in my head. I can almost reply the video, but I can't remember who sang it. Great song though.

*bangs spoon on glass to get everyone's attention*

If everyone could please be quiet a moment... thank you. Just while we're all here enjoying the pleasures the Browncoat Bar & Grill has to offer, I'd like to raise a glass to the memory of Liviu Librescu. I've already written a fairly long post about him in my flylog so I won't repeat it here, except to say that in the midst of horror and violence it's good to know that Big Damn Heroes can still be found.

Godspeed, Liviu Librescu.

well i generally start the day with a hot chocolate mug full of tea; milk, two sugars (which I only have in my morning cup, don't ask me why) and that gets me going, various cups during the day changing to green tea in the evening to avoid caffeine keeping me up all night.

I'd kill for a Jack daniels around now but my stomach is playing up and I haven't had a drink since new years *shudders*, that's a long time for a muso!

She thinks charmed is better than firefly though.

Heya Kelkhil:

Could someone pass me a clue? Apparently I've lost all of mine.

Oh, and I'd better sweep up the mess in the other room soon. (Anything to avoid doing real work, right?

)

RIMG: *oofs from the wind knocked outta me* Still the same, very little has change from when I 'mailed you. *blinks at the 'you're becoming more like HK and RIMG' comment* *gigglesnort* Nope. Sorry RIMG, you're becoming more like _me_ (unless you're older, and been like this longer, then I bow to your hollowed-out-ness).

I think I should say this here ('tho I've PM'd stinkingrose about this too): I'm sorry stinkingrose for misconstruing your statement.

's my fault, and if it sounded like I blamed you, I wasn't. Blame my overfrayed nerves. (Also, thank you and I'm sorry to whomever PM'd her...

I really didn't mean to add to the emotional rollercoaster that the nation is having right now.)

MsG: Thanks for the hugs.

Some days, it's a "you just gotta love the job..." instead of the "gotta love the job."

*looks around* *notices the leftovers from the previous thread* *quietly starts picking up, folding, and putting away all the throws, comforters, and huggable items no longer needed*
*goes into the "breakables" room wearing a dust mask* Hole-y cows guys! *sneezes* I didn't expect you to turn everything in here into finely ground dust!....

lol no worries but given the lack of body language (for obvious reasons) I'm always a little extra polite on the old net.

Today would be perfect if I wasn't stuck in an office as the sky is blue, there is just enough breeze for it to be warm but not overly how and for once the telephone isn't going crazy so if I can just get some work done before people start breaking things I might get ahead of the game!
