13375. thoughtful - 1/18/2005 9:27:41 PM Of course even that doesn't work. Our bags for Colorado were very packed. Mind you they've been complaining about terrible drought conditions when we were there. Not for me, though...huge thunderstorms popped up and got us soaking wet. It rained on me for hours.
Hubby never believed me until he had to live with me. I mean it's so bad that I can be inside the house with no clouds in the sky...I wander outside and the clouds will come over and the wind pick up. I go back in and the sun'll come out.
I guess those weather gods just don't want me to worry about skin cancer! 13376. judithathome - 1/19/2005 12:14:44 AM What happens to this place in the afternoon? No posts...it's like everyone takes a siesta or something. 13377. Ms. No - 1/19/2005 1:06:35 AM Okay, have I ever mentioned how much I hate waiting?
Hate it hate it hate it.
And what the heck takes so long for an order from Amazon anyway? I placed it back on January 5, qualified for Super-Saver Shipping because of the size of the order but the delivery date is projected to be January 29th at the EARLIEST!!!!
It's not like I ordered anything that wasn't in stock.
I'm going to run out of books to read before this package shows up.
Somebody alert Barnes & Noble to prepare for my onslaught. 13378. Ms. No - 1/19/2005 1:08:32 AM Judith,
Love the pic of you and Keoni! Tell him "hi" for me. 13379. arkymalarky - 1/19/2005 1:08:42 AM I just got home and ate.
Got a ticket for late tags on the way home. In 15 years I bet I can count on two hands, if not one, the number of times I've seen a cop. I hadn't been stopped in ages, and organization freak that I am I couldn't find jack except my drivers' license. I finally dug though a stack of registration sheets to find the latest one and found an old proof of insurance slip that had expired in '03, but too late. 13380. Magoseph - 1/19/2005 1:12:18 AM I took a nap and I had an awful dream—Bill told me when I finally awoke that I was moaning and speaking indistinctly while trashing around under my quilt. “And you didn’t wake me up? I told him. How could you let me suffer like that?” Well, I was afraid to do that,” he said. The TV was on and Rice kept interfering with me. We were in a dorm we apparently shared, ready to go to bed, when she mentioned nuclear catastrophe—I was screaming at her and as always when I get upset in my dreams, I was speaking in French. Then I translated, a feat that I am able to do easily in dreams. “Don’t speak to me about nuclear attacks, I’m not interested in them—I want to talk about social problems—people are hungry, dying, and miserable because of you and Bush, there's a war..." Rice would not shut up. So I decided to leave the dorm. It was then that I saw that people would not let me out of the campus. They were awful people, young and uncaring, extolling Bush and laughing at me. I escaped finally, but out of there, in one field, motorcyclists were camping, at the beach families stopped me “Where is the city, where is it?” I kept asking—“Here is the way, but first let me tell you…” It went on and on…I was so exhausted and so distraught that I lashed onto that nice man here, berating him awfully for not waking me up. 13381. Magoseph - 1/19/2005 1:13:27 AM God darn it, I shouldn't have eaten that cake yesterday--I bet I was still digesting it--Sorry about the rant. 13382. judithathome - 1/19/2005 1:26:07 AM You may have been luckier than I this afternoon, Magos...I watched all of Rice's teastimony and it was a waking nightmare.
I can certainly sympathize, though...whenever I take an afternoon nap, which is rare (really!) I always have what I call "daymares"...truly frightening dreams made all the more scary by the fact I know I'm dreaming but can't wake myself up at all. 13383. wonkers2 - 1/19/2005 1:42:30 AM I also watched a fair amount of the Rice hearing. She's not very impressive. As is the case with many politicians, she finds it hard to admit mistakes. The worst was when she evaded answering Sen. Dodd's question about how she would feel if American soldiers were treated like we treated the prisoners at Abu Ghraib. It was a simple question for which a simple direct answer would have been appropriate, but Riceroni couldn't bring herself to say it. Also, she didn't do well with Sen. Boxer's question pointing out inconsistencies in her and Bush's statements on WMD. 13384. judithathome - 1/19/2005 1:46:23 AM When she replied to BOxer, "I would appreciate it if you would not impugn my honesty" I thought, how can she impugn what you don't seem to have? 13385. wonkers2 - 1/19/2005 1:52:14 AM Very true! She's not a very admirable person. No time for civil rights; only interested in "getting there." 13386. Ms. No - 1/19/2005 2:00:53 AM My favorite part of the 911 Commission hearings was her testimony when one of the Congressmen point blank told her to quit trying to evade the questions by talking about her agenda.
I wish she'd get called on that more often. 13387. lemwalker - 1/19/2005 2:44:29 AM It fizzled. All the water just went down the river. There are far worse things in life than rain. Rain is a 'musac' in the woods. Next drought I will invite Thoughtful to visit. 13388. arkymalarky - 1/19/2005 4:07:24 AM Glad you didn't have to lem-walk to survive the water. We were doused for weeks, and now it's sunny and cold. It's supposed to warm up to the mid 60s later this week, though. 13389. Macnas - 1/19/2005 11:59:45 AM Thoughtful, you remind me of the fellow in "The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy". 13390. Dubai Vol - 1/19/2005 12:49:41 PM I thought the same-the rain god that the cloudds loved and cherished and watered him wherever he went, only he was a lorry driver. 13391. thoughtful - 1/19/2005 3:36:12 PM maybe i should change my moniker to joe btfsplk
 13392. Magoseph - 1/19/2005 4:17:30 PM Hello, everyone. Most allusions to cartoonish characters usually pass me by, but this time I know who Joe Btfsplk is, thanks to Zane Miller who compared Kerry to him at one point during the election. 13393. wonkers2 - 1/19/2005 4:23:07 PM I wonder how the guy was able to buy the 9mm? 13394. wonkers2 - 1/19/2005 4:23:44 PM Oops! Wrong thread.
