Only if I get to melt stuff as well.
I have a sore throat today. Ugh. Gorgeous day–I believe the sky is a slightly deeper shade of gray than it was yesterday…
:rolleyes: Sorry for the double post all. I was having trouble with the board last night. I actually didn’t think it went through at all, so I copied it to Hawkeyeop’s IM window to post later. (I didn’t want to lose it, darn it!) For some reason, it decided to post twice. Stoopit post. Anyway, I’m sorry. :o Commense with the double jokes. It reminds me of the old Double Mint Gum commercials.
Anyway. It’s morning. I’m not in bed anymore. I’m at work. I’d rather be in bed. Stoopit work.
I’m up for a large fire any time. 
My sorority in college was Pi Rho. (aka pyro hahahaha)
Holy shit.
You chicks are hot, but also a little scary.
I’m, hiding.
Morning all! Whatever has gotten into everyone???
First off, everyone who has teh sick, get better fast, mkay?
Second, Mr. T, you are one fine looking young man. Have you met our darling Haze???
I just started reading Ken Follett’s World Without End and am completely hooked. I think he has another winner like Pillars of the Earth. Anyways, I can’t put it down.
Must get back to presentation hell.
Tupug
This is so cool. A whole slew of hot chicks, all pissed off. When you women feel ready to get out to wreak havoc and destruction, make sure you let the rest of us know where. I HAVE to see this.
Turns, holding pitchfork, and sets gaze on MBG. <raises one eyebrow>
Hazel-go get the tar and feathers!
Who is **Mr T **(in terms of the MMP) and how did I miss a good looking guy? 
I really feel like crap, but must go to the library for some of the time at least. I also need to call the dentist and see if he can fit me in earlier than April 1–the left side of my face is killing me. Stupid teeth.
I slept like the dead and it felt great. I did have an odd dream: I dreamt my mother asked me to buy her a front loader washing machine. I told her I didn’t have $900 to do so(?). And she got really mad and made a scene. WTF?
Thanks but I’m really not a good OP candidate. I’m not online until at least 8 a.m. on CDT Monday mornings, and we often have work stuff with deadlines on Mondays so I can’t get to the MMP until late Monday morning. Combined with me trying to avoid being online at all on Sundays means I’m much better as a participant than an OP. Thanks though!
Taters, it sounds like things have leveled off for you a bit although the work stuff sucks. Have you been able to eat better recently? We were all worried when you weren’t eating and were working out so hard there for a while.
Somewhere back there I saw kai. Hi kai! ::waves:: Beautiful grand baby. And beautiful baby, Dotty.
Someone (I think it was here) recommended Agnes and the Hitman and I’m reading it now and love it. So to whoever suggested it, thanks!
I can get you such a deal on slightly used and slightly charred feathers…
ETA: I think Mr. T is ArgentTowers.
Ta. And your chicken fire was just so gross. Put me off poultry for at least a day or so… ugh.
Now I have to go be a librarian. After I all the dentist. All I want to do is sleep. Throat is not responding to hot tea. Hot tea hurts my tooth. Kill me now.
I am reading (changing the subject) The Geography of Bliss by Eric Weiner. I’m on page 3, so take this for what it’s worth, but so far, it’s delightful.
Shall I wear the leopard print or tiger print fur bikini when I go on my rampage? 
I’m gonna hang out in the Pit today. It’s one of those days.
I am officially bored. Not hungover, just very bored. St Paddy’s Day was celebrated by 'im indoors nearly getting into a fight with a drunkard outside a pub on the way home (which he only told me about today), and the scoffing of copious amounts of Irish stew.
If wishing the quit o’clock isn’t bad enough, I’m staying an extra half hour in the office because we’re going to the greyhound races tonight and there’s no point going home first.
ETA: first on 4! W00t!
Did someone call for a pyro? Lifetime pyro here; the skills I learned as a child, at my father’s side (also a true pyro) came in handy when I’d take the Girl Scouts camping and start a roaring fire in the pouring rain. Impressed the hell out of 'em.
I’m pissed off this morning, too, at my insides, which have decided to be, er, less than happy with me. Grr. Here’s hoping I don’t spend the rest of the morning in the bathroom, like I have up to now; I have this week’s helping of congressional [del]drivel[/del] valuable and important work to get done. :rolleyes: Words to strike fear in the heart of anyone: When a committee chair recognizes a fellow congressperson “for as much time as he may consume.” I have never seen people who could use so many words and say so little. :dubious:
ETA: Crap! BooFae beat me to being first on page 4! chalks up another reason for being pissed off
I’m assuming this is in reference to me. Thanks.
The question is, do I look better with the beard or without? The opinion among everyone I know is always hugely divided whenever I change my appearance.
Personally, I think a naked rampage will get the most attention
From me, anyway!
Without, of course. Everyone knows beards are just wrong…
Wow. It’s kind of like apples and oranges. You look totally different, but good, either way.
Gah!!! Bastiches still want me to do actual work, even though I’m leaving in 3 weeks time? Ask me to review comments/mark-ups on documents that I had no part in negotiating or drafting, such that it will take me for-fucking-ever to do! Pass me a pitchfork - these guys are just asking for me to tear them all a new one (or three)!!! :mad: :mad: :mad:
Sigh - I’m no good at mad. I’m much better at disappointed, and guilt-trips - a skill I learned from my mother and swore I would never use (primarily because it is a power that can only be used for evil, or only results in a worse situation than the one that … anyway, you get my point, I hope!).
SilverT, I think without a beard you look like a hawt young thang, worthy of the cover page of a dirty magazine! With a beard, you look like an engineer.
ETA: The dirty magazine thing only applies to grown-up you, not to sweet-little-boy you, who looks like he needs his hair tousled!
Now that’s funny.
How YOU doin’? 
I agree with Pie, Mr. T.. You’re adorable. 
I would say that both looks have their merits. As a girlfriend the beard shouldn’t be too scratchy as it can be a little painful, but a soft beard can be oh-so-delightful. Have you met Haze?
Taxi that is the most hilarious book! I LOL’d. Have you read the Stephanie Plum books by Janet Evanovich? They are quite funny as well.
Mama Tigs I bow to your supreme fire making abilities. I will endeavor to learn all I can from you.
Noonie you’d pay attention no matter what anyone wore.
I am not getting teh sick. I am not getting teh sick. I am not getting teh sick. If I keep telling myself that, it’ll be true, right? :: medicates with M&M’s :: I felt really icky last night, but I’m ok right now…so, we’ll see.
