You guys are boring me.

I am stuck in the house, listening to the wind, and I come to the Lounge for entertainment. And what do I get....nada.

I'm heading for Meta. I can amuse myself with "the jury system doesn't work" threads.

If anyone has any other suggestions for a bored storm watcher, I could use them.

All have movies you could watch. I recommend "The Perfect Storm". J/K

If I was near you, I would go over to your place and we could play chess, checkers, or spin the bottle, your pick.

VelmaD, sadly, is gone lo these many years. Wonder what she's up to these days.

Do you really think the plants will want watered with a case or bottle? What works for your plants, whiskey or beer?

I really do need to do laundry, but that is never fun.

the case/bottle is for YOU

The plants and laundry get the water!

when I get hammered the laundry all goes in at once..socks, shirts, shoes, blankets, underwear

then an extra heaping of detergent and bleach
