Wish I could have some caffinated cofeee. Worked 13 hours at work over night. Just got home.... .... ...zzzzzzzzz......” 6:19:17 AM 7/06/04 “Time to go to work. Oh, joy.” 7:07:35 AM 7/06/04 “At least it will be a short week.” 7:28:48 AM 7/06/04 “Yesterday was my 30th birthday - had a wonderful weekend celebrating. Today, I woke up to a broken hair dryer, and a few unexpected twists here at work. I hope the day gets better quickly!!” 7:32:27 AM 7/06/04 “Good morning. Finally, I'm back on-line. Had to call Road Runner and wait and wait for a customer service professional! They should have restarted service automatically.” 8:25:37 AM 7/06/04 Mountain Bike 2- Aero 0 “I've got a big bruise on my back and road rash on my butt and elbow from all the fun I had over the 4th.” 8:41:38 AM 7/06/04 “Lol, smiley girl, you have just found out what reaching 30 and beyond is all about. Everything just starts to fall apart or break down. It starts with small personal appliances and works its way up to your personal physiology in 10 to 20 years. Didn't anyone warn you when you were still 29? BTW, Happy Birthday!!!!” 9:57:33 AM 7/06/04 “ouch, Aero! stop beating up innocent trails, would ya.” 10:05:37 AM 7/06/04 “LOL! Gee, thanks for the good wishes, Pekka! There was even a fire alarm in the hotel we were having dinner in on the 4th. G claimed it was because they lit the candles on my birthday cake! What a schmuck! We were "stuck" in the hotel dining room for about 30 minutes, waiting for the all-clear. We just continued to drink while we were waiting, though! ;)” 10:12:28 AM 7/06/04 “Yes, entropy is a #&%!$ alright! LOL Or as Paul Simon put it, "Everything put together / Sooner or later falls apart"... Where did I file those lyrics....? Happy Belated -- !” 10:25:58 AM 7/06/04 “Happy Birthday Smiley Girl. You'll never be this young again, and it really is just a number. Don't ever buy into that numerical/aging crap...it's all attitude. Beginning day 5 with my mother. Last night I had the knife poised over her sleeping head and at the last minute plunged it into the pillow. Yesterday she complained it was cold so I started a fire in the fireplace. Today it was colder so I started one before she got up. She complained I was wasting firewood. While doing dishes she complained my dish soap was no good because she couldn't blow bubbles with it. I've decided to stop at the dime store (we still have one) and buy her some bubbles. This afternoon I'm going to lock her outside with her damn bubbles and a six pack. Don't believe too much of the foregoing. We're having a good visit, but she sure as hell is a high maintainence mom. Have a great day. Off to the Library for large print books...and a beer.” 10:27:23 AM 7/06/04 “LOL, Snake! you crack me up w/ your mother!!! I can just picture her trying to blow bubbles. Does she dip the beer bottle in the soap and blow the top off? Or did you actually get her a wand (bubble wand) It was cold enuf for a fire here in montana over the weekend. BRRRR! what crappy weather we had. The sun is shining now but the forecast is for a crappy week. got clouds hanging all over me. I need some good jokes. Where's that cute joke thread.” 10:33:30 AM 7/06/04 “happy b-day smiley- never trust anyone over 30!” 10:44:33 AM 7/06/04 “smiley girl - Happy Birthday. Sure wish I could return to 30 when most of my important parts worked. "Oh call back tomorrow. Bid time return." King Richard II Snake Eyes - I thought you were going to take her out in the canoe and throw her overboard.” 10:49:49 AM 7/06/04 “I never trust anyone over TWELVE LOL (or under 14)” 10:50:21 AM 7/06/04 “Nowslimmer - I did and I did (she floats).” 1:02:22 PM 7/06/04 “But Tilt, trust is the foundation of life. Remember all those times you said to a girl, "Trust me!"” 1:04:28 PM 7/06/04 “There are so many jokes with "Trust me!" for a punchline.... LOL” 1:13:44 PM 7/06/04 “Good Morning, Campers -- It's niiiiiice and quiet... I woke up before the alarm so I missed out on the blaring Sonny & Cher.” 6:23:32 AM 7/07/04 “...and the beat goes on. Another rainy Wisconsin morning. No trip down the Namekagon with Mom in this weather. Got some large print books at the library yesterday; She's a happy camper with a book. Great coffee weather.” 6:31:14 AM 7/07/04 “Melbourne, FL, Chance Tstms, Hi 92°F. Good morning. Another great day in Florida.

Came into the office for a 9:30 meeting and found out it had been postponed 25 minutes because of another meeting running long. So, might as well TT for a bit.” 10:14:26 AM 7/07/04 “Rain in NW montana. No motorcycle riding for me today. Hoping to hear from a prospective employer. Maybe I'll find a good project to work on at home after tutoring is done.” 11:52:15 AM 7/07/04 “HMMMMMMmmmmmmmm. 92˚F in FL while it's 96˚ in GA.... This should put the our heat index at ≈105˚. woooooo hoooooooo! It's not the heat; it's the....” 12:00:01 PM 7/07/04 “damn humidity!!!~ I don't envy you at all, Tilt! That's one of the reasons I moved to montana. I hate humidity!” 12:01:06 PM 7/07/04 “Hey, maybe I could convince you to come up for a visit and a hike?” 12:01:36 PM 7/07/04 “hmmmmmmmMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmm.... "An Brer Fox, he lay low." LOL” 12:45:27 PM 7/07/04 “mtnmom - I hate humility too, but I seem to be cursed with it.” 1:36:22 PM 7/07/04 “yeah, Snake, it sure does. LOL Tilt, well, you just lay low then cuz this brier Rabbit is going to skedaddle.” 3:39:55 PM 7/07/04 “ <GRIN>” 4:00:18 PM 7/07/04 “Currently at 653 AM EDT THU JUL 8 2004 Temp: 70°F  Chance Of T-Storm.

It was a short work week in terms of days worked, but it sure seemed long. Off to a party/BBQ at Squam Lake tomorrow and then hiking Mount Washington on Sunday morning. If anyone wants to go, we'll be in the Pinkham Notch parking lot between 6:30 and 6:45 AM.” 7:24:42 AM 7/09/04 “LOL! ME, dadburnit! I need more caffeeeeine! It's funny how those 'short weeks' can seem longer sometimes.” 7:35:19 AM 7/09/04 “Yeah, they seem longer because no one else is around, and it so darned boring!! At least today is our BBQ lunch (every 2 weeks) on the patio. 50 cents will get ya a hot dog or hamburger, chips, and a drink. Not bad, eh?” 7:42:16 AM 7/09/04 “Plus the week seems long 'cause they still expect you to cram 5 days of work into 4.” 7:46:50 AM 7/09/04 What about me....? “I had to cram 5 days of retirement into 4. Hahahahahaha.” 7:49:14 AM 7/09/04 “Tough duty! LOL” 7:50:33 AM 7/09/04 “You seem to be handling that well, Snake Eyes!” 7:51:14 AM 7/09/04 “I'm with you dhutch, everybody expects the stuff that would have normally be done on Monday to be done when they show up on Tues, phone calls all day wanting results.” 7:54:09 AM 7/09/04 Hey “Check the "Eureka Zeus 2 vs Clip Flashlight" thread. My mother is going to write a gear review.” 7:59:26 AM 7/09/04 “Hey, I celebrated two birthdays this week. My granddaughter was two on the 5th and I was 2+ yesterday. Lots of cake and icecream, yum, yum.” 8:05:43 AM 7/09/04 “Congratulations on all the birthdays... Hmmmm.. cake&Icecream for breakfast......... Nope, better not, LOL Apple & cinnamon 'cereal' bars and sommadat Franch Roast instead (with a small heaping Tbl of that Ghirardelli Cocoa and Ground Chocolate spilled into it, more likely). Sugar rush is tentatively scheduled for 8 am, <G>” 7:01:25 AM 7/10/04 “Morning... Coffee and chocolate...what a perfect combination!!!! I just slept 12 hours.....very unusual for me....roomates pre teen sprayed a whole bunch of lysol yesterday....almost killed me.... Not doing anything outdoorsy this weekend ...grrrr....I have a birthday party I must attend....and I have to work all next weekend while they install some new equipment (crying)..I will take the overtime money and do something fun with it....” 7:48:45 AM 7/10/04 Divinity is now laboratory clean. “Good morning. Divinity - Lysol is great for controlling pests. It kills just about everything. A banana, coffee, a small, wheat roll from Walmart, TT and some dreams does it for me.” 8:28:20 AM 7/10/04 “Coffee and chocolate -- Gotta have it. On the trail, it's coffee singles and swiss miss: the swiss miss takes care of the sugar, chocolate and the creamer in one swell foop, <G> And looky here.... I just remembered I had a link for some do-it-yourself coffee singles. Fill them with your favorite brew, fresh-ground before you take off for the trailhead. (those Maxwell House things are pretty good, but they aren't exactly unblended Kona) Sunburst Bottle Co. 100 for less than $5... and heat-sealable. Someone could call up, ask what you're up to, and you could tell them you're upstairs ironing your coffee, LOL -- The reaction you'd get would be worth the 5 bucks right there!” 9:11:03 AM 7/10/04 “that probably smells pretty good while you do the ironing.” 9:11:56 AM 7/10/04 “Light starch?” 9:19:26 AM 7/10/04 Jump to Page << prev
