I've been up for a couple of hours already, workin' on a new hot sauce recipe.” 6:05:07 AM 9/07/02 “Does my back yard with a couple of second graders count as a bag night?” 7:08:50 AM 9/07/02 “I'm starving, too... Could you pass me one o' those cats? Thanks. And the A-1?” 10:13:02 AM 9/07/02 Bob Morning “Get up stand up Stand up for your rights!” 3:24:02 AM 9/09/02 “Get up! stand up! dont give up the fight!” 4:38:26 AM 9/09/02 “Fight? Me no fight. Me want coffee.” 5:13:11 AM 9/09/02 “Pathman - Yes - in my opinion. Where's the trip report?” 5:23:02 AM 9/09/02 “Big Coop, They yacked all night, I had to threaten them with never doing it again. At least the neighbors didn't complain. They let the pet rat poop on the floor of the tent. I'm glad I was in another tent. I asked if they'd like to sleep in a tent in the woods, they said yes. There is hope.” 6:45:11 AM 9/09/02 “Four day work week for me, Friday off..... To Wheeler Peak. Yippeeee.....” 7:04:32 AM 9/09/02 “Took my packed backpack on my walk this morning. Felt good, just need to add camera, water and tortillas. We've been getting some good overnight rains from some moisture coming up from Mexico and the Pacific. The predawn high desert was like perfume this morning. Coyotes yipping, too.” 7:15:48 AM 9/10/02 Buddur Marley “You can fool some people sometimes. But you can't fool all the people all the time. So now you see the light?” 3:27:00 AM 9/11/02 “Big change in the weather here. 92 yesterday, 70 and high winds today, 40's tonight. Fall isn't that far away.” 6:02:02 AM 9/11/02 “'bout time! Except it's gonna be reeeeeeeeeally windy today, and I have a run scheduled after work. I knew I should have woken up earlier and did it this morning!” 6:19:42 AM 9/11/02 “coolest day we have had in a long time, here in ABQ, NM. High of 78 predicted, and rainy.” 6:22:15 AM 9/11/02 “On the bright side the wind will keep you nice and cool. Running into the wind will be like going uphill though. I better workout I guess.” 6:22:37 AM 9/11/02 “Just make sure that you dodge all the falling tree limbs, Artex! It looks pretty wild outside my house, with the drought weakening the trees, there are fallen branches everywhere.” 1:30:14 PM 9/11/02 “hay did I miss something? when did this wind start? my sister called and asked me about it and I thought she was nuts (well I still do)” 1:32:04 PM 9/11/02 “It is weird on TV too, at the memorial broadcasts you can hear the wind on the broadcast and see the papers blowing around, that the newscasters were hoping to use for cues.” 1:34:21 PM 9/11/02 “So now my neighbor just called and asked me if she could borrow my chainsaw, since one of her trees just draped itself across her lawn.” 2:24:08 PM 9/11/02 “I saw a few freshly fallen trees out in the woods yesterday. We had a peak wind here of 48 mph.” 12:13:55 PM 9/12/02 “Two people in NJ were killed by falling debris due to winds of up 60 mph.” 12:23:47 PM 9/12/02 “I think I saw on TV that in NYC that a couple people were hit with debris falling off buildings from the windstorm. I think they were just injured.” 12:29:01 PM 9/12/02 “Well, wake up already! I'm going to go make coffee.” 5:38:33 AM 9/17/02 “im done off at work, you lazy bumms!!” 5:50:34 AM 9/17/02 “Is it that French Vanilla coffee? That's good stuff.” 5:51:25 AM 9/17/02 “Why yes, Rich, it is! Darn allergies, I couldn't sleep last night. Seems better now though. Coffee always helps. Is it fall yet?” 6:07:59 AM 9/17/02 “Fall arrives on Sun or Mon offically, I think.” 6:13:46 AM 9/17/02 “I'm up, French Roast from "The Bean" in Taos for me. Leaves are starting to change in the mountains. :)” 6:32:54 AM 9/17/02 “Get up and get down!” 7:06:46 AM 9/17/02 “Get up?! Go to he!!” 7:18:47 AM 9/17/02 “Ouch Treebait, I woulda thought that you were up for hours anyway!” 7:52:02 AM 9/17/02 “Lack of consistent sleep patterns wears pretty quick. Laurel takes after me in the colic department every evening. The difference is when I was a baby I had colic between 4 and 10pm. Laurel has it between 10pm and 2am.” 7:54:00 AM 9/17/02 “Oh. When my kids were infants they went to sleep early at night and then were up for good around 4 or 5 AM. That was miserable.” 7:56:59 AM 9/17/02 “That's how I was "til I moved to FLa. in '90. Then I started hanging around HPM and all my routines went to heck! My parents had to work out a deal with me at CHristmas when I was little. All the cool knickknack gifts were in the stockings, so we'd start with those and work to all the other gifts. I could open the stuff in my stocking at 4 or 5 am, whatever time I usually got up, but had to wait for everyone else to wake up for the rest of the gifts. Things worked out a little better when I was old enough to set up and start the coffeepot for my parents, lol!” 8:03:06 AM 9/17/02 “sorry to hear that treebiait. I was lucky my little ones didn't go through any of that stuff. they seemed to find other stuff to keep myself and my husband up at night.” 8:06:14 AM 9/17/02 “I just realized setting up the coffeepot every morning was the first "grownup" thing I was taught to do. I feel so exploited now.” 8:08:37 AM 9/17/02 “Yeah, we all still get up early, between 6 and 7. It was just rough being up and having no one to talk to for an hour or two, every day.” 8:08:47 AM 9/17/02 “Huh? My Mom worked so from age 10 or so, my siblings and I ran the whole house, chores and cooking. I didn't feel exploited, just self sufficient.” 8:10:22 AM 9/17/02 “HPM likes to sleep in til noon if he can. Way back before we were dating I'd call over to his house at 11am on a saturday and he's still asleep. Darned nuisance night owls!” 8:10:30 AM 9/17/02 “Must code..... can't think..... zzzzzzzz....... WAZZZAT??? NO, I'm not sleeping.” 8:10:44 AM 9/17/02 LyndyS “I'm talking age 6.” 8:11:22 AM 9/17/02 “Treebait, that is cool, I don't think that my kids would make coffee for me and they are almost 8 and 10. Hmmmm I wonder......” 8:13:16 AM 9/17/02 “Really, 6? I get scouts at age 11 aren't allowed to use the stove at home.” 8:15:13 AM 9/17/02 “Heehee, HPM sleeps too much. My husband goes to sleep around 1 AM and still gets up at 6:30 to watch some news before getting ready for work.” 8:15:54 AM 9/17/02 “It was weird as a kid being up before broadcast television started for the day! Jeez, life before cable. Wow. I think I enjoyed stuff like that once upon a time, when the idea of being given responsibilities was an honor and not a source of terror and regret. No, I'm not referring to the baby at all! Just the worst mistake of my life, which was working for the family company.” 8:16:56 AM 9/17/02 HPM Dear “Ever heard of a Mr. Coffee? Put in X number of scoops, add water, and push a button. DOne when the gurgling stops. Remember?” 8:18:09 AM 9/17/02 “HPM, when I was first dating my husband, my mother in law asked me if I could come to the house to fix dinner for her 18 year old daughter while she went on vacation. I think I looked at her like she had three heads.” 8:18:11 AM 9/17/02 “LOL, Lyndy! I used to love to cook and show off for friends. I'm a remarkable recluse now.” 8:19:40 AM 9/17/02 “The other adults and I were stunned when we had to teach kids how to strike a match.” 8:21:59 AM 9/17/02 “A recluse because of the baby, or even before that? I know I feel more reclusive now than I have in many years. I used to buy into that whole yuppie thing and now I've really begun to step back and look at things differently. But it is like you are on a train and you can't just step off.” 8:23:15 AM 9/17/02 Jump to Page << prev
