Good Wednesday Morning, Crew!

[Clintmax]

:donut::hi:
Welcome to the Hump Day edition of the Early Morning Crew thread! :bounce: Wow! It's Wednesday already. Time is just flying by! A minute ago it was Sunday. *tick tock* Wednesday! :rofl: Luckily, I have today off from work and I am going to spend it working on what I can to help the house buying thing proceed apace!

Both Tony and Bandit have vet appointments this morning at 10. Greekspeak has to be over at FSU for a meeting at 10, so that means I'm going to have to take them over there myself. I'm not quite sure how THAT'S going to go, but I know it won't be easy trying to handle both of them at the same time (Bandit in the pet carrier and Tony on the leash). I'm sure it's going to look rather comical! :rofl:

So, let's get this day started, shall we? It's going to be a great day! :bounce:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

2. Good morning, Clintmax!

First again!

[Clintmax]

3. Hail, Starbucks!

:hi:
Woohoo! First again! :woohoo: How's every little thing today?

[Starbucks Anarchist]

10. Just got home from work.

So very tired. :D

[Clintmax]

13. Ah. I can understand that.

I'm usually tired as hells when I get home too. Relax, have some coffee, and enjoy! :bounce:

[Hissyspit]

4. Morning!

[Clintmax]

5. Hail, Hissy!

:hi:
Do you have any big plans for today?

[Hissyspit]

6. Teaching all night tonight - straight lecture.

Enjoy your day off!

I was hoping to have all my grades posted by Thursday night, but now I'm beginning to wonder.

[Clintmax]

9. Teaching ALL night?

Wow. A marathon lecture. :scared: I don't envy you THAT, Man.

[Hissyspit]

22. 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., not literally ALL night.

[Clintmax]

LOL! Oh, OK.

Still though...5 hours! Wow! Your endurance must be in tip top shape!

[Hissyspit]

82. No, it's not.

Still, it's fun. It goes by fast when you get into the subject, but with the other grading I have to do, I just as soon have the day off. You can make "Vacation" by The Go-Go's the Song of the Day on Friday, when I've turned the grades in and I have a few weeks off coming to me! (Although the night classes continue and Summer Session starts in June.)

[Clintmax]

85. Ooo...I like that song too!

I just might do that! :bounce: Well, if it is fun once you get into the groove then it must be OK! :bounce:

[sbj405]

7. Morning, Clint.

Good luck with the vet visit. I've given up taking both my dogs (big boys) at the same time. :-)

[Clintmax]

11. Good Morning, SBJ!

:hi:
I don't know WHAT I was thinking when I scheduled them that way. :banghead: It certainly is going to be fun! :rofl:

[Random_Australian]

8. Morning! Troll fun in R/T!

[Clintmax]

12. Hail, Random!

:hi:
Catch one did you? :rofl:

[Random_Australian]

15. Not TS'ed, no, but silenced.

It was wonderful, my first ultra-left troll!

(Group effort to shoot him down, but it wasn't hard)

Take a guess at his name! (Just pick any recurring name)

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=214

:D

[Clintmax]

18. LOL! Good for you!

Interesting.

[Random_Australian]

25. Anyway, time for dinner.

(will check in occasionally).

Must be your breakfast time... so fess up, what are you having? (Yes, I am fascinated with food ;))

[Clintmax]

40. I haven't decided on what to have yet.

I'll let you know when I do though. What are YOU going to have? (this should be interesting)

[Random_Australian]

62. Not that interesting. I have to use the really cheap food, I am a uni

student.

Just some rissoles cooked with a touch of garlic with noodles and sauce (ketchup and kecap manis), then some peas and beans & dill.

If I had garlic and dill. Which I don't.

Oh well.

[Clintmax]

67. Hmmm...

Sounds kinda good actually. I'm thinking just some cold cereal and toast for breakfast. It's fast and easy, Mate.

[Random_Australian]

78. My breakfast: Cold cereal and grapefruit.

Fruit is cheap here. As in something that the uni students eat.

I have heard the poor in America are often overweight due to the fattiest food bieng the cheapest.

Which must suck.

*sigh* the plight of the poor.

[Clintmax]

83. Hmmm...I never thought of that.

You may be right, though!

[Random_Australian]

88. Aye. Anyway, we did minority influence in psych the other day, so

I'll make it all better.

;)

[In_The_Wind]

14. It sounds like a wonderful hump day!

You are going to have soooo much fun going to the vet!

Do you have a cell phone. Perhaps you could call from the parking lot for assistance.

[Clintmax]

16. Good Morning, Miss Joan!

:hi::hug:
I know it's going to be a lot of "fun"...and yes, I have a cell...I hadn't thought of calling them from the parking lot for assistance, but that's a good idea! :rofl: What are your plans for today? Anything exciting?

[In_The_Wind]

27. I should try for a little more sleep. I've been up since 2.

I don't have a difficult day, just a pedicure, grocery shopping and preparing supper tonight. :)

[Clintmax]

42. Yes, if you got up THAT damned early...

you should try to get a little more sleep if you can. Sounds like a pretty easy day...mine is going to be interesting, that's for sure!

[SeattleGirl]

17. Clintmax!!!

Mornin' darlin'. And, goodnight. I've got a meeting in a few hours so I need to get some sleep. But I'm glad our two "ships" passed on this shift change!!! :loveya:

[Clintmax]

20. Good Morning, Miss Seattle!

:hi::hug:
It's good to see you this morning! I'm glad we got to see each other before the shift change was complete! :bounce: Sleep tight, my dear, and sweet dreams! :loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

29. Thank you darlin

I'm quite tired after my battles in GD. But I feel good because I have defended the honor of women everywhere, AND the honor of uppity women!!!!

[Clintmax]

44. You set those people in GD straight, Miss Seattle!

:woohoo:
I'm sure all women everywhere (and especially uppity women) appreciate your efforts on their behalf!

[Minnesota Libra]

19. Good Morning - Great Hump Day To Everyone ...................

.....the only day better than hump day is Friday (at quitting time).:hug:

Clintmax, so what kind of dogs are you and Greekspeak parents to??:loveya: Yes, our pets are family too.:toast:

I'll be getting a feline in a couple months - wanted to get one this month but had to put that off in order to deal with a puter issue. Thank goodness my :hug:computer guru son O8)will be coming to my rescue on that as soon as I get him enough money to ship me a mini-tower.O8) Got half the money now so about a month from now I'll soon be sporting a faster and much better built computer :bounce: from someone who knows my computer needs and habits.:headbang: :toast:

[Clintmax]

24. Hail, Minnesota!

:hi:
Tony is a black standard poodle, and absolutely adorable! :bounce: He has lots of energy (he's still a puppy) so Bandit is busy all the time keeping Tony away from him. :rofl: I'm glad you're going to have new computer! It's a great thing, let me tell ya! :toast:

[ScreamingMeemie]

21. Hi Clintmax!! you are a brave man. I could never take both of mine

to the vet at the same time. Merlin is horrified of the vets. Jessie looks at it as an "outing" and adores getting attention. She'd go every day if I was up for it.

Have a wonderful day off! :hug:

[Clintmax]

28. Good Morning, MrsG!

:hi::hug:
How are you this morning, my dear? Yes, I don't know what was going through my head when I scheduled them at the same time. x( :rofl: I can just imagine a crowd gathering to watch the festivities and point and laugh as I'm trying to get both of them into the vet's office. :rofl:

[ScreamingMeemie]

30. I could immediately envision hissing cat and bouncing puppy when

I read your post. Bring a camera. :rofl:

I am so very good, thanks for asking. I'm going to try not to blow off another day.

[Clintmax]

47. It IS going to be an interesting event.

Unfortunately, there is going to be no camera anywhere near me to take pictures as I'm struggling. :rofl: Hey, there's nothing wrong with blowing off a day once in a while. Just so long as you don't do that all the time.

[Mutley]

23. Morning Clint!

Looks like Greekspeak will have to get to FSU a little early so you can make your vet appointments.

Do you ever just suddenly wake up out of a dead sleep for no reason? That's what I did this morning. :crazy:

[Clintmax]

31. Good Morning, Miss Mutley!

:hi::hug:
Yes, I have awakened like that! x( I hate that. Tony has gotten into the habit of (when he's ready for me to get up and feed him or take him outside) putting his nose right on my ear and breathing really fast. Then, he'll lick my ear lobe! :rofl: I'm awake, I'm awake! :rofl:

[Mutley]

34. ...

:rofl:

My dog will just put her face about an inch away from mine and stare at me. She must be thinking to herself, "Wake up. Wake up. WAKE up! WAKE UP! WAKE UP!"

[Clintmax]

55. ROFL! Tony doesn't give me a chance to wake up like that.

He gets completely involved in the waking up Clint activity! :rofl:

[Mutley]

64. Haha!

There is no such thing as sleeping in when you have canines around. :rofl:

[Clintmax]

68. Nope. Especially when they are still puppies who've grown enough

to be able to jump up on the bed all by himself. :rofl:

[Mutley]

71. Oh I remember the day when my Rogue first did that.

She peed on the bed. I had to get a new matress, because no matter what I did I couldn't get that pee smell out of the old one. :furious:

Now I wake up every morning to her evil stares. :rofl:

[Clintmax]

74. LOL! Oh gods.

I'd be pissed too if I had to go buy a new mattress like that! :grr: At least he's never done THAT. :rofl:

[Mutley]

81. She was lucky she's such a cute little bugger

and that I have a soft heart. Oh yes she was lucky. I know now there is a very specific reason why baby animals are so adorable. :D

[Clintmax]

86. Yes, they sure are!

Tony just completely took my heart when I first saw him, and he's still adorable!

[Mutley]

132. Alright, I'm off to school.

You know, the hot water system in this building is terrible. I had to run the hot water for a good five minutes before it warmed up at all. Then when I turned on the cold water to even it out it got even hotter. Once I finally got my desired temperature I started my shower. A few minutes later, when I had shampoo running into my eyes, of course, the water went ice cold. Who knew taking a shower could be such an adventure? :shrug:

[Clintmax]

135. Good gods!

I HATE it when the water does that! :grr::mad: I'm sorry you had such an adventure just trying to take a shower, Miss Mutley. Have a good day at school and I'll see you in the morning! :hug:

[Mutley]

137. See you in the morning, Clint.

:hug:

And you have a good day, too.

[Clintmax]

139. You too, my dear!

:hug::hi:

[billyskank]

45. Hi mutley

:hug: :hi:

[Mutley]

49. Hey billy.

:hug: :hi:

How are you today? How did the visit with your Mom go the other day?

[billyskank]

54. I am okay

I couldn't be bothered to go to work today so I phoned and asked to take a day's holiday.

My mum's visit was nice. We went out to a mediterranean restaurant - can't tell whether they were Greek, or Turkish, or what, it was called "The Olive Grove." The food was really good.

How are you?

:loveya:

[Mutley]

59. Didn't you just have a three day weekend?

:P

We have a restaurant in the area called the The Olive Garden, but I think they consider themselves Italian. Many question that, though. :D

I'm good. I woke up very suddenly out of a dead sleep this morning so I feel a bit strange. My second class is cancelled for the day so I get to come home early. Other than that, everything is the same old same old.

[billyskank]

61. I know, I am so lazy

I disgust myself sometimes. :blush:

[Mutley]

66. Oh, I'm sure you deserve a day off.

:loveya: :hug:

[wildhorses]

26. good morning and good luck Clintmax

sounds like you will have your hands full...

[Clintmax]

33. Good Morning, WildH!

:hi::hug:
Thank you, thank you! I surely am...and I kinda wish I had a camera pointed at me as I'm trying to get both of them out of the car! I'm quite sure it would win $10,000 on America's Funniest Videos! :rofl:

[wildhorses]

36. with careful planning...

:hi::hug:

[Clintmax]

56. LOL! Yeah, no kidding!

:hi::hug:

[NMMNG]

32. Good morning Clint!

Oh what a busy night it's been. Had to slay some meanies in GD, then take out a troll in R/T (yes, an atheist hit the "alert" button a dozen times on an atheist troll, if you can believe that!). Later this morning I have a boring meeting for work (the usual quality services, blah blah blah, some other stuff, blah blah blah then time for employees to whine about stupid crap, etc.)

Eventually I'll be able to get home for some sleep. :boring:


"Bad Day", the official "Goodbye you loser, you just got kicked off American Idol" song. :rofl:

[Clintmax]

37. Good Morning, Miss Buffy!

:hi::hug:
I heard about the troll in R/T. I'm sure THAT was a fun time! :rofl: Oh, meetings..."bitch sessions" in other words. x( I hate those. When people start that crap during one of our store meetings, I shut them down at once because I don't want it turn into one of those. I hope you get home to bed without too much trouble!

[NMMNG]

Trolls are always fun

This one posted like a dozen threads that were pure flamebait. Nothing but cut and paste jobs purely intended to provoke outrage. It was some twit with barely over 100 posts--just enough so that he could go on such a spree. He won't be here much longer. :P

I'd skip my meeting today but then it will show up on my monthly review. I might as well go and get the 1.5-2 hours extra pay. I still can't get over the one where the guy was there to discuss the new health insurance. He was talking about how we'd be covered if we were vacationing in Canada, and one nitwitted employee asks, "What about if you're in an airplane that's flying halfway between the US and Canada?". :banghead:

I swear I sometimes wonder if they put these people in as plants to drive me crazy.

[Clintmax]

60. ROFL!

Ok...that's just a stupid question and I have always maintained that there AREN'T any stupid questions. Boy, was I wrong. :rofl: Random sent me a link to the thread and I saw them. I clicked on a couple of them, but I saw what he was doing and so left. :rofl: I see a tombstone in his immediate future also. :rofl:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

35. Good morning!

I stayed up all night again though.

[Clintmax]

38. Good Morning, Haruka!

:hi:
I hate to stay up like that, myself. Are you usually an early riser also?

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

48. I have really fucked up sleep patterns.

I always have.

[Clintmax]

69. Ah. I think the best solution to fucked up sleep...

is to go to bed at the same time every day and get up at the same time every day. Greekspeak has to do that because of his insomnia.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

75. I used to always have a work schedule where I couldn't do that.

I'm not working currently, so I just kind of sleep when I'm tired regardless of whether or not it's a "normal" time to sleep. In general, I'm really adaptable when it comes to sleep. I can adjust to a regular schedule in a day or so.

[Clintmax]

79. Well then you're one of the lucky ones!

It would take me a LONG time to change my sleeping habits.

[MissHoneychurch]

39. Good morning Clint

That sounds like a very interesting task you are up to today :rofl: Good luck :)

My day is going fine. I am busy at work and have email contact with my sweetheart. What can I say but "having a big smile on my face". The sun is shining, the temps are around 70. So it is a beautiful day.

[Clintmax]

50. Good Morning, Miss Honey!

:hi::hug:
It's so good to see you today, my dear! I'm glad work is going good for ya so far. I hope it keeps up! Sounds like you have a beautiful day in progress. I watch the Moskau video every once in a while to have a little laugh. :rofl: I really enjoy it, myself!

[MissHoneychurch]

63. I forgot that that song exists

I guess now I have an earworm. Thanks a lot. :spank:

[Clintmax]

72. LOL! Sorry, my dear!

I didn't mean to create an earworm like that.

"Moskau, Moskau, wirf die glaser an die wand, russland ist ein schones land..."

:rofl::rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

76. Yeah right

:spank:

:rofl:

You just HAD to repeat it. Didn't you? :cry:



















:hug:

[Clintmax]

80. LOL! Yes, I did...

I was watching the video again just now. Thought I'd share with you! :rofl: Hey, how's your sweetheart doing?

[MissHoneychurch]

90. Oh thank you a lot

:rofl:


He is doing fine. He has good chances to get another job and he is getting over his depressed time. I am emailing quite a lot with him today. I love it since we barely chat these days. We seem not to be able to catch each other online in the evenings.

[Clintmax]

95. I'm glad to hear he's doing better.

I hate it when my Greekspeak is feeling depressed like that. I know it sucks not to be able to talk to him whenever you want to, but at least you can e-mail. That's something at least. Until you CAN talk to him personally again. :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

100. True that

He is a good man and I want to keep him. The days while I was in Berlin we didn't talk or anything to each other. We both hated it. Those daily emails are keeping us sane

[Clintmax]

105. I'm sure they are!

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

110. I can't imagine

how long distance relationships worked without email.

[Callalily]

94. Morning MissH

Sounds like you're in for great weather too! Sun's supposed to come out today after being in hiding for far too long.

Oh and yes, how is that man of yours!

[MissHoneychurch]

98. Good morning SimplyF

I just said the same in my answer to your OP to Clint. Sounds like we have the same weather. I am glad that the spring finally beat the winter. Was about time.

My sweetheart is doing fine. We are emailing back and forth today quite a lot. Makes me feel close to him.

[Callalily]

119. Glad to hear

that your sweetheart is fine. Yes, e-mail is a quick and easy way to stay in touch.

Heading out to work early. Today is going to be very, very, busy and I suspect will be working late. Hope I don't turn crabby!

[khashka]

41. Hey Cap'n Clint!

Seems like forever since I got to wish you a good morning!

So let this one be so good it makes up for all the ones I missed.


:)

Khash.

[Clintmax]

51. Hail, Khash!

:hi::bounce:
It HAS been forever! I'm glad to see you today, Dude! :woohoo: I hope life has been trating you good!

[billyskank]

43. Hi Clint

:hi:

[Clintmax]

52. Hail, Billy!

:hi:
I hope you're having some beautiful weather out there! It's going to be gorgeous here in Florida! Sunny and 90 degrees F! :woohoo:

[billyskank]

58. It is okay

The sun has come out, a little, although he just disappeared as I turned my head to look.

[Clintmax]

73. At least it's not raining cats and dogs, huh?

:hi::hug:

[AirmensMom]

122. Hi billy!

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

I missed your goodnight thread last night ... well, I didn't exactly miss it, but I got there too late. :( My laptop died yesterday and I'm trying to adjust to using this old dinosaur again. It's not nearly as handy!

How are you today? :loveya:

[riona]

46. Fl check-in

Good morning. Wish we had a video of you juggling the pets. We have this mockingbird that sings ALL night. Granted he has a great repertoire, but too much of a good thing..... Have fun with your furry babies.

[Clintmax]

53. Morning, Flblu!

:hi:
Wow! He sings ALL night? Do you cover his cage at night? Would that help do you suppose?

[riona]

Nope

He's in the bushes outside our window - the sprinklers came on at 4 a.m. and he finally gave it up. What a guy!

[Clintmax]

112. Oh, I see now.

Gotcha. Hmmm...outside my window would drive me completely up the freaking WALL! :rofl: I feel your pain, Mister!

[Neoma]

57. Good morning.

Time always fly by when you're doing something i suppose.

[Clintmax]

65. Good Morning, Miss Neoma!

Yes, it sure does. Last night at the store, it fairly FLEW by, I was so busy. How's every little thing with you today?

[Neoma]

70. I plan to read the rest of "The Restaurant at the End of the Universe"

I've been so bad about it lately, watched too much tv and posted around 135 posts here yesterday.
Right now i'm looking for a better aim icon to use on DU.

[Clintmax]

77. I have a book that I only have a few pages of left to read.

I really should finish it today.

[Neoma]

84. I only have 24 chapters left.

I should make myself some oatmeal. I suppose i don't dare make eggs considering i tried something peanut butter on the skillet yesterday.

[Clintmax]

87. Yikes!

What on EARTH did you try to make on a skillet that has peanut butter?? *shudder*

[Neoma]

89. *ahem*

I tried to be creative, it was a flop.

[Clintmax]

92. Oh.

:rofl:
I'm sorry, my dear. Hey, we ALL have that happen to us sometimes. Don't feel too bad.

[Neoma]

96. I take my oatmea plain ya know.

Don't see any point in putting sugar in it. :silly:

[Clintmax]

102. None at all, huh?

:rofl:
I can't stand it plain! :rofl: Lots of butter, lots of sugar and sometimes, lots of cocoa! :bounce:

[Neoma]

104. Gag.

I'd go on a anti-sugar strike if someone put sugar in mine.

[Clintmax]

108. LOL!

Naw...it's GOOOOOOD that way, dont'cha know! :rofl: But, hey...we all like things the way WE like them...right?

[Neoma]

120. Of course.

I like Hitchhiker's guide with oatmeal in the morning. :bounce:

[Clintmax]

124. Hitchikers...Wow...

I remember a long time ago, NPR used to play audio books, and they did that one too! LOVED IT! :rofl:

[Callalily]

91. Morning Clint!

Ah, you're certainly going to have an adventure going to the vet today. You'll have to let us know how that went.

Oh, weather's going to be beautiful here today - it's 51 degrees already, heading to low 70s and sunny!! It's been overcast and rainy the last few days, so this clearly is welcomed! Certainly puts one in a good mood.

[MissHoneychurch]

93. You sure you live not in Germany?

that sounds exactly what our weather was like the last days ... LOL

[Clintmax]

97. Good Morning, SimplyF!

:hi::hug:
It will be LOTS and LOTS of fun I'm sure! :rofl:

We're going to be sunny and 90 here in Florida today! :woohoo: So, we're both going to have great weather and that puts ME in a good mood too! :bounce:

[Callalily]

109. Yes, and you've got

the day off which is an added bonus.

I think I'm on an omelet kick, because I've been making them every morning for a week. Oh well, maybe it'll be something different next week, although they are very tasty.

[Clintmax]

125. Tasty yes...

as well as filling! Same thing with pancakes. They fill you up quick!

[newyawker99]

99. Good morning everyone!

:donut:


:hi:

[billyskank]

101. Hi newyawker!!

:hi:

[Clintmax]

103. Good Morning, Miss NewYawker!

:hi::hug:
Thank you for including me in the Milestones! :loveya:

[Cannikin]

106. Good morning Clintmax!

How's it goin?

[Clintmax]

114. Hail, Cannikin!

:hi::hug:
It's going just fine, Man! Getting ready to have some breakfast! HOw's everything in YOUR world?

[Cannikin]

116. Not too bad. Just getting the day started. Glad to hear you're alright.

[Clintmax]

123. Well thank you, Man!

I'm glad you're doing good too! That's what we're all about in this thread...getting the day started! :bounce: Any big plans for today?

[Cannikin]

126. Just another day at work. At least the week is half over.

[Clintmax]

130. That's true!

I have to work on Saturday, but I have Sunday off and the weekend off the following week! :woohoo: So, I'm really looking forward to it! :bounce:

[swimboy]

107. Good morning, Captain!

Congratulations on your 10,000th post. Very impressive. :applause: :party: :applause:

It's always great to see you in the mornings :hug: when I can manage to visit! If I'm late I can still come here to see what's going on with many of my dearest DU friends. :loveya:

Good luck getting the boys to the doctor this morning!

[MissHoneychurch]

113. Good morning swimboy

:hug:

How was your weekend? I was in Berlin and had a good time there. Pictures are to follow sooner or later

[swimboy]

141. I have missed the morning again!

:cry:

If I have missed you I will PM.

I'm glad you had a good weekend. I did what I could even though we have a big cloud of pollen over the city so I keep sneezing and my eyes are watering. It's not pretty.

I'm looking forward to your photographs of Berlin.

I was happy this morning because I made muffins the night before. :9

:hug:

[Clintmax]

117. Hail, Swimboy!

It's good to see you this morning! :woohoo: Thank you, thank you! 10,000 arrived a lot quicker than I thought it would. But, here I am and I'm looking forward to the NEXT 10,000! :bounce: It's alwyas great to see you in the mornings too, man!

[AirmensMom]

111. Good morning, Clintmax!

:donut: :hi: :hug:

I hope you make some progress on the house buying. It's certainly more fun to buy than it is to sell. :D

[MissHoneychurch]

115. Good morning AM

Good to see you :hug:

How is that back of yours?

[AirmensMom]

118. Good morning, MissHC!

It's very sore. :cry: I was supposed to go to the chiropractor yesterday, but I was too sore to drive and harleydad couldn't leave work to drive me. So I have a new appointment for tomorrow afternoon. It feels better if I keep moving, but then stiffens up whenever I sit or lie down. x(

How are you doing?

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

128. I am doing fine

Went to bed early yesterday and am fit today. Going to hit the gym after work.

Sorry to hear that you aren't feeling too good. :hug:

[AirmensMom]

131. I'll be OK ...

:hug: I have to go fix my mom some breakfast now. I'll sneak back when I can. :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

133. OK

enjoy your breakfast

:hi:

[Clintmax]

121. Good Morning, Miss Airmens!

:hi::hug:
I've got to get with the broker today. I'll know some more information once I get finished there. It's good to see you today, my dear! Congratulations on 5,000! :bounce:

I hope everything has smoothed out on your end!

[AirmensMom]

127. I've got 5,000?

I didn't even notice! Thanks! :hug: :bounce:

No smoothing happening over here yet. And my laptop died yesterday -- a royal pain b/c I do all the financial stuff on it. Yeah, it's backed up, but the old dinasaur has Windows 98 on it, so my external hard drive won't talk to it, and harleydad's laptop doesn't have the right software on it. I'm hoping it's something simple like a bad battery or loose connection somewhere. I will never buy another Dell computer. It's not even three years old and it was very expensive. :cry:

The good news is that my mom got here safely from CA. It's a hard trip for her, so we'll probably take it easy today and float in the pool. :D

Let me know if you find out anything today, OK? :bounce: Is this a new broker?

[Clintmax]

129. Oh wow. YUCK! I'm sorry bout your laptop.

:hug:
I hope it's something easy to fix. Will it not even turn on or do you get error messages? Yes, take it easy with your Mom today and let her recuperate from that long trip. It's the same broker...I want to talk at length with him before I proceed. I'll certainly let you know!

[AirmensMom]

134. Well, it has dancing pixels sometimes.

Then, if I hook it up to an external monitor, it seems to work OK. But sometimes it won't even boot. I read somewhere that Dell laptops act funny when the battery goes bad. It won't be cheap to fix, I'm sure, but I can't afford to replace it.

Well, good luck then. I'll be waiting to hear how it goes. We expect to hear something today or tomorrow. Right now I have to go fix Mom some breakfast. I'll check back if I get a chance. :loveya: :hug: :hi:

[Clintmax]

136. OK, my dear.

I couldn't afford to replace a computer right now either so I hope you don't have to. If I don't see you before I leave to get some things going, I'll see you in the morning! :bounce::loveya::hug:

[Clintmax]

138. Time to get going, my crew!

I need to have breakfast and get ready to take the boys to the vet. It's was great to see everyone again this morning! :bounce: Take care of each other :grouphug: and I'll see you in the morning! :bounce:
