Hey! That 4 looks good on you!
It’s the Democratic ‘roo:
I have this sudden urge for m&m’s … hmmm.
OH NO Hormonal chocolate cravings… everyone run!!!!!!!
No, you’re safe, it’s not hormones. It’s the thought of Boran2.
Don’t ask.
Thank goodness. I was all of a sudden feeling a nap coming on.
We all know well placed chocolates can work wonders. LOL
I had always hoped to induce desire in women, but this isn’t exactly what I had in mind.
should take what you can get and just go with it.
Chocolate can help. LOL
LOve the reason for teh closing of the old cafe. LOL
Say, did anyone see the Primetime show last night on the taped family life of step families, if so what did you think.
Hi everyone,
I didn’t see it — was it good?
Hi Diane. I don’t think I heard of the step families one.
How’re ya doing?
I saw a bit of it during hockey commercials. I thought it was disturbing.
No, I missed it — what did they say/do?
That last cafe only lasted an hour.
Other midwest (or non-eastern time zone) people. Does your time stamp show an hour off? 10:13 CDT
OR, if you didn’t change your settings — 9:13 CST — should be 8:13 in standard time.
Mine did after the time change, but I messed with it so it wouldn’t mess with my head. AZ doesn’t change time, so that’s been a pretty common experience for me on sites with registration and time stamps unless they have an AZ setting.
I changed mine back to standard time even though we’re on daylight savings time. That way at least the time will be right.
This was after I freaked out this morning thinking I was running an hour late.
Okay. I am behind. where in AZ? I lived in Phoenix for 8 horrible summers.
I’ve been in Flagstaff for the past 11 years, but am moving to a suburb of Dayton Ohio in less than 2 weeks. (Sick relative needs care.)
I hate Phoenix! I’ve only been down there a handful of times, but any place where even the wind at midnight is hot is too damn hot even for me, lol.
Amen to that and Phoeniz is snobby with no reason to be.
I am sending warm thoughhts of love and healing to the relatrive and all concerned.
You’re so sweet about it I almost don’t want to tell you she has lung cancer. I won’t chew your ass about smoking, though; I used to smoke, too, and I know how obnoxious that is even when people mean well. 🙂
LOL I know I am risking my health. I also have ahd many friends die from cancer who never smoked a day in their lives. I will quit when I am ready even if that means next life time.
as the ugliest city* in america
*including phoenix, glendale, mesa, scottsdale, sun city, tempe …
Amen!!!! and the people there are very nice to tourist but treat people who move there like shit.
It is just gross, and the water tastes dirty. Everyone up in Flag hates it. There are bumper stickers all over town that say: “Don’t PHX FLG”.
I was flying over Phoenix one time and the guy next to me looked down at it and “Jesus Christ, what is that?” And thought I would suggest a city motto to the chamber of commerce: “Phoenix, so appalling it’s ugly even at 25,000 feet.”
That’s hilarious. I remember the first time I saw the place, all I could think was, “My god, it’s Miami without any of the good things. Get me outta here!”
Of course, I’m wondering just how long you can take Dayton before you’re saying the same thing. (And when you do, I’ll have prepped a perfect spiel on what a great city Bloomington is).
Yeah, I’m afraid. But I keep telling myself, “better doctors, better doctors.” It’s also been a very long time since I’ve been to the queer bar so I’m looking forward to that. Plus, I figure it’ll be a bonanza for subversive genderfuck opportunities and messing around with heteronormativity’s mind.

So you’re in the mood for understatment tonight?
IF you’re first and get a green don’t go. Wait for the 6 autos to go through their red light at 50 mph first.
I saw more accidents there in a couple of months than a whole life time here in ND.
I was hit 3 times in Phoenix and had 2 cars totaled there.
I can believe it. I went through an intersection twice looking for an address, looked back after the second time through, accident, missed it my a minute.
Now imagine those very same people drunk, on vacation, up in my town trying to drive in the damn ice and snow. ::shudder::
ya just hung out at home with your favorite beverage, cranked open the window and listent to them all banging together…
It’s almost that bad here on the first icy road day of the season.
I just changed to see what would happen. Here goes.
I’m one of the few people I know who doesn’t own a wrist watch. I guage the day by naps.
My time is now set with my computer though.
Add me to that list. Ever since I got sick, I stop watches. I have no idea why, but if I wear any watch for more than a few days, it just…stops.
It’s a sign to slack.
lol, in your world, Family Man, the boss calling you up and yelling, “WORK!” is a sign to slack.
In my world there is no boss.
In my world the word ‘work’ is the highest form of profanity.
I have never bee able to wear watches. I use my cell phone as my watch.
I haven’t been able to completely break myself of time. I have a clock on my wall and a few through the house.
I think I’ll finally reach the apex of slackdom when I don’t care what time or day it is.
My big son, who’s afraid of clowns, also hates watches. He’s very prompt but when I stay at his house I have no idea what time it is – no clocks anywhere.
And my ex used to stop watches too. Every single watch I bought him stopped within a week. Weird magnetic field or something.
Then bush must scare the shit out of him. LOL
I reworked one of my favorite designs into a bumper sticker.
Can You Believe?
I only stopped wearing watches when I retired. When I worked, I never would be without one.
But, I’m one of those people who hates to be late. I’m always, always early for any appointment.
For me, being on time means arriving at least 1/2 hour early. I hate to be late for anything.
You just explained me to a ‘T’. I hate to be late and I get upset when I have to wait on someone that is making me late.
I’m always a few minutes early and I think it drives people nuts. I hate people who are always late – it’s like they think they’re so important people will want to wait an extra half-hour for them. Feh.
You mean the ones who run on San Francisco gay time and are always 30 minutes to an hour late. They drive me nuts!!!!
early for most of them. I had a friend once who waited 4 hours for someone to show up. No call, nothing.
I declined further interaction with the late one.
Me too, Family Man. People who are habitually late piss me off.
As I was walking down the street one day
A man came up to me and asked me
What the time was
that was on my watch
that day
Does anybody really know what time it is
Does anybody really care
If so I can’t imagine why
We’ve all got time enough to cry
As I was walking down the street one day
A pretty lady looked at me
And said her diamond watch
had stopped cold
that day
Does anybody really know what time it is
Does anybody really care
If so I can’t imagine why
We’ve all got time enough to cry
And I was walking down the street one day
Being pushed and shoved by people trying
to beat the clock oh no
I just don’t know
Does anybody really know what time it is
Does anybody really care
If so I can’t imagine why
We’ve all got time enough to die
Listen people I don’t care
Oh no no I don’t care
Are you chastising me?
Of course not. I’m just establishing a soundtrack for the lounge.
I love that song!!!!
How’s tricks?
Need clarification on ST Louie slang?
Otherwise I’m fine, hoping to load a what is it soon longs as the Fs ain’t in bed yet?
I wish you wouldn’t do this.
If you’re talkin’n to me? You’re too late?
well at least you don’t have to care if it get rec’ed.
larger
beautifull!!!!!
Generally speaking I’d say some leaves. Am I close?
OK I’ve got the leaves thing down, but the white clumps and what type of leaves?
That is some exotic looking tree for North Dakota. The leaves look faintly maple-ish but I’ve never seen those long catkins or whatever.
I see leaves of 3. I’m lettin’ it be.
(a picture that he took today) that I’m wrong about this not being native to Indiana. And if he’s right, then it’s a box elder.
You said it. It’s a boxelder. Those hangy down things must be part of the flowering process, but so far I’ve got nothing on google to prove it.
And as 2nd N spotted, the boxelder is in the maple family, and the First Americans used to use it to make syrup, takes a higher ratio to get a gallon of syrup, I think 80/1 rather than 60/1, going be what’s left of my memory.
Hello!
Hi KB.
Hey FM — how’s things?
Hi KB. I’ve been severly slacking today.
That sounds fun, especially after the week you’ve had.
But you have to know slacking has become an art form for FamilyMan!!! LOL
HI katiebird!!!!!
Hi refinish69, what’s up?
Nothing much been slacking all day to get energy up for the rest of the month. LOL
Hi KB, I just got here myself.
Hi Toni — it’s good to see you. I haven’t been here in a week or so. How is everyone?
Well, I just got here, but it seems that there was some disturbance at the cafe, just before this one opened. I didn’t see any yellow crime scene tape, so I stepped on in, with some trepidation, of course.
whatcha sippin’ tonight?
OOO!!
Thanks for reminding me! I’ve got some Irish Creme. And I just poured a bit into a glass.
How are you?
Just fine. Happy that the redbuds and dogwoods have flowered and just about everything in the woods has leafed out.
Hope all is well with you.
Things are finally starting to bloom around here too. It was a beautiful day.
But we’re watching a cursed movie — Sweet November. the remake from a couple of years ago.
I remember the one with Sandy Dennis and Anthony Newley but I hadn’t realized anyone had done a remake.
Yes –Keanu Reeves and Charlize Theron in San Francisco. It’s amost a nightmare of terrible.
mister just got fed up and turned the channel. So I’ll never know how it ends.
I was overcome with joy when Sandy Dennis’ terminally cute character terminated.
Thought something was up. I just said I think she’s got cancer. That’s why she keeps vacuuming her hair. Otherwise he’d notice that she’s losing her hair.
Hate to say it, but I feel a long nap coming on.
See ya’ll tomorrow.
Nap or bedtime?
24/7 Lounge is now open.
