Ah, don’t worry, Tech’ems… someday, I’m going to rule the whole friggin’ universe, and then I’ll… oh… give you a galaxy or something.
And Ogre… I like you.
I can’t offer an extended break in Mexico, but I’m off to England for a week or so. You’re welcome to come. Not to much in the way of sunshine and beaches this time of year though.
Well, Tech, you could change places with me and work till 8AM. It’s a slow night, I don’t think anyone would notice that I’m not here…then I could go out with my friends and have some fun!
Michi,
In your line of work I would prefer to be slow…but that’s just me…
Hey I did get a charge out of something tonight…no, nothing that interesting but it at least gave my night some meaning even if small!

Well, look at it this way, oh wise & wonderful TC. You have us (and I don’t include that maroon over there)- and we are sorta an extended family. We are here 24/7- need a shoulder to cry on- and at least a dozen are offered- want to share a laugh?- we’ll laugh along with you- want to gripe, bitch & moan- hey, we do that also. Advice- got it. Even need a prayer? Sure. Hugs? Partys? It is all here. Heck, there are even sex fantasy threads.
Yes, it is not as good as “the real thing”- but also- sometimes it’s not as rotten either.
Look how many freinds you have here- and I mean real freinds. How many non-SDMB folks have even HALF as many?
Ah, thank DITWD, that means a lot 
Gosh I love my SDMB friends!!!
