Just because I can...

Good morning, sweetie!!

…although it barely qualifies as morning here… and it’s suppertime where you are…

::good morning kisses::

Mmmmmmm… ::hug::

[sub] 2396… I will! But I’ll wait till I get all my stuff off it… :D[/sub]

Hey cutie!
::Good…er…afternoon kisses:: :wink:

Well, it’s not quite suppertime by the standards of my family, but hey… :slight_smile:

Of course, if I don’t eat soon, I might be forced to dine on the living room chair :smiley:
::hugs::

::light kiss on the neck::

::giggles:: Oh, a chair can’t be too tasty! We’ve still got some fruit in here; why not have that instead?

How’s Bawlmore, sweetie? (I swear, I’m going to say that out loud one day.)

[sub] 2410 views. Sweet! :slight_smile: [/sub]

Oh yeah? What if it’s a chocolate covered cherry chair? :smiley:
Though, if there’s fruit left…

B-more ain’t so bad; it’s getting on night and it’s nice out. I think I missed firefly season, though; I love going out and running around with the fireflies… sigh

::kisses::

[sub] 2415 views. Not as sweet as you :wink: [/sub]

Chocolate covered cherry chairs? Wow! Neat! Doesn’t it stain your clothes when you sit on them, though?

::feeds Myrr some blueberries::
Fireflies? I have never seen one. Are they cute? Or do they look like something out of The Thing? :smiley:

Have you seen the eToys commercial where the father (I think) orders the little firefly lantern for his kid? That was such a cute commercial. My mom wanted actually wanted to get one of those lanterns, even though we don’t have fireflies here. (The music in the background, btw, is by a late Hawaii singer. It’s a very moving remake of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.”)

::wraps arms around Myrr::

:: purple-stained kisses::
[sub] 2417. Or you. :wink: [/sub]

Well, we keep a sort of plastic cover on it. It gets a little mushy in the summer heat, but that just makes it comfy…ewwww!

Mmm, blueberries…

Fireflies are really cute, they will land on your hand and crawl around a bit, lighting up, and then fly off. Sometimes, the whole field behind my house is flickering on and off; it’s really neat.

Hmmm, haven’t seen that commercial; must…watch…more…TV! :slight_smile:

::holding Audrey close::
Here, have a rasberry
::feeding Audrey raspberry::
::purplish-reddish kisses::

Hee hee

[sub] 2422. ::blush:: [/sub]

Eek! Well, if I ever need a chocolate fix, send me a chunk of your chair, okay? :smiley:

A fieldful of fireflies! I’d love to see that. Heck, we don’t have cool bugs here. I found a red and black spotted ladybug once, and it was exciting for me. First one I’d ever seen. Usually, you can only find those iridescent black ones.

No! Don’t watch more TV! TV melts your brain! Well, unless it’s sports… especially baseball, baseball is always good…

::munches raspberry::
Still good after all this time!

I do believe that color is called rose madder. ::kiss:: See?
[sub] 2431. Aww, he’s blushing! Cute! [/sub]

I’ll FedEx it in little paper individual pieces in frilled paper cup thingies all in a box :slight_smile:

Iridescent black ladybugs?! That’s cool. I don’t know how wide the fireflies’ range is, but I never see them up at Bard-land (though I’m usually there the wrong time of year). Maryland is usually pretty thick with them; they may be plentiful further south, too…just a WAG.

Baseball is good…if there’s no football on :smiley:
::ducking for cover::
Actually, I make fun of baseball a lot, but I do watch quite a bit. That, football, tennis, and Simpsons are my TV fixes…

::testing raspberry::
You’re right (good thing, too; I’da hate to have given you an icky one). Must be the dry ice in the cooler… :slight_smile:

Rose madder? I * think * I see. Maybe if we tried more red and less blue/purple…
::feeding Audrey strawberry, with cool whip for good measure::

::kiss::

What color was that?
[sub] 2433. I can’t help it ::blush:: [/sub]

Oh, the frilled paper cup thingies! :smiley: Now that’s spoiling me! Usually a Hershey’s Kiss in silver foil does me fine.
The next time my prof goes south to visit, I’ll ask him to catch me fireflies. Imagine, a 65-year old man who’s had hip and cataract surgery running around in a field at night with a mayonnaise jar, scooping fireflies… On second thought, I shouldn’t ask him. :slight_smile:

Baseball is my preference, and next is football. Tennis, huh? Do you play tennis too?

Simpsons! That’s one show I don’t watch as much as I should.
::examines color::

Good, that’s really close to rose madder. You know, the Cool Whip has become a sort of creamy rose madder-colored lotion… ::kiss:: There, can you see it?

[sub] 2439. Keep doing it; it’s really cute! [/sub]

No, spoiling you is the rose sent alongside :wink:

Oh c’mon, it’d be worth risking the heart attack just for the story…besides, they’re stupidly easy to catch. Oh god, now I keep expecting to look out the window and see some guy with a jar out there…

Yeah, I play tennis…though not too well. My father just beat me 4-0 today, and he was sick (which is why we didn’t finish the set). I put up a good fight, though…

Simpsons rocks!

::trying to see color on own lips::
Umm, Audrey sweetie, this isn’t working…
::kiss::
Ahh, now I see. Well, now I know what * that * looks like…

[sub] 2445. Hey, I can’t help it ::blush:: …see? [/sub]

Okay, you have to explain to my mom why I’m blushing and grinning… :smiley:

::kiss::

The funny part is, my prof is probably the type to do that, bad hip or not. He would, and he’d be grinning and laughing madly the whole time. (And don’t worry, he’s here in Hawaii. I just saw him yesterday.)

I used to play tennis with my dad too, just for fun, when I was a kid. Problem was, I burned really easily in the sun. There aren’t many tennis courts near my house that aren’t in full sun, so I stopped playing. I don’t even have my racket anymore.

::hug::

What colors shall we make next? :wink:
[sub] 2450. That makes it even cuter! [/sub]

Ummm, Audrey…uhh…err…is just really sweet and cute. And…ummm…something…err…look over there!
Yeah, that’ll work :wink:

::goodnight kiss::
I know it’s still early there, but I have a 5-6 hour drive tomorrow :frowning:
I’ll try to email before departure, though…

I like the sound of this guy; anybody who would go out chasing bioluminecent insects with a busted hip is ok in my book :slight_smile:

You burned easily? Ouch…glad that I…wait…fried like an egg…err…nevermind :slight_smile:

::long hug::

What say tomorrow we find out what kiwi, watermelon, and black raspberry makes? :wink:

::more goodnight kisses::
'night sweetie

[sub] 2457. Owww, quit it ::blush and grin:: my cheeck muscles are locking up :slight_smile: [/sub]

Yeah, I thought maybe you’d have to go (relatively) early tonight.

::longer hug::

Have a nice drive, sweetie pie. Say hello to Bard-land for me. I’ll have an email waiting for you. :slight_smile:

Yeah, he’s pretty cool. It’s the main reason I jumped at the chance to work for him.

Woo hoo! Fun with color! I can’t wait!

::kiss::

Sweet dreams, dear. Talk to you tomorrow.
[sub] 2461. Forgive me; I can’t help myself… :D[/sub]

Yay; I return to the board on an ethernet connection…whoohoo (well rested too, BTW ;))

Ahh, the joys of ethernet. Tonight I get to find out if daisy chaining 3 parallel port devices is ok…

::feeding Audrey kiwi::
Now we just need to figure out what else should go in there…

::kiss::
Hmm, sometimes I think I’m too impatient…sometimes I think it’s worth it :smiley:

And my were they sweet dreams… :wink:
[sub] 2507. Of course I’ll “forgive” you ;)[/sub]

Ethernet? ::drools::

So glad to hear you’re there, safe and sound. ::hug::

Have fun chaining! :smiley: Hope it works.

There’s always room for a kiss or two (or three, four…)…
…and in this case, I think your impatience is a great thing!
::good afternoon kiss::

[sub] 2516. Yay! “Forgiveness”! ;)[/sub]

Ehternet is the stuff of gods… :slight_smile:

I’m glad to be here, safe and sound…

Ummm, chaining? :eek:

::kiss::
::kiss (2)::
::kiss (3)::
::long kiss (4)::

:smiley:

Off to sleep now…night cutie
::goodnight kisses::
[sub] 2540. And “absolution”…well…maybe that one doesn’t work as well :slight_smile: [/sub]

Hi sweetie!

Good morning! ::good morning kiss:: Hope you slept well.

Chaining! I guess it’s computer geek bondage? :smiley:

Although this type here is pretty enjoyable too…

::kiss::
::kiss:: (2)
::kiss:: (3)
::kiss:: (4)
::kiss:: (5) Five! Amazing! :smiley:
[sub] 2547. Yeah… I love these euphemisms![/sub]

Good morning cutie

::good morning kisses::
I slept so well…thoughts of you as I drifted off :wink:

[best attempt at a leering voice] “Hey baby, wanna go daisy chain some parallel port devices with me?” [/voice]

:smiley:

::kisses::
::more kisses::
::happy kisses::
::slow kisses::
:slight_smile:

[sub] 2555. Me too…“euphemizing” is fun! [/sub]

::sleepily::

Hi, sweetie pie!

::good morning kisses for me, good afternoon kisses for you::

[flirting voice] “Only if you’ll allow me to inspect your hardware.” [/voice]

:eek:

:smiley:
[sub] 2567. Not as much fun as this… ::kiss:: [/sub]

Hey sweetie…

::kisses::

[also in flirting voice]“You wouldn’t believe my peripherals” [/voice]

Oh deart lord; I think I’ve just doomed myself to…well…something :smiley:

[sub] 2584. You’re certainly right on that count ::kiss:: [/sub]
