Good morning Lounge

[MissHoneychurch]

How are you? Did you have a good start into the week?

I had a really strange dream last night. A violent dream. Someone got beaten up while I was sitting in the car. Didn't watch anything violent before I went to bed. No idea where that dream came from. Sure enough woke up with a start.


Picture of the day

[peruban]

1. Well a good morning to you, too.

I have yet to get to bed so it still feels like a Monday.

[MissHoneychurch]

3. Good morning

and good night to you.

Where are you? What time is it for you?

[peruban]

7. I'm in Florida, Eastern time zone.

It's quarter till 4 here, I'm just a night owl.

[MissHoneychurch]

8. You sure are

last time I did that was election night :D

[boilerbabe]

14. Ooops stay up late all the time--shiftworker!! n/t

[billyskank]

2. Hi

Yesterday evening was a bit blue. Hope the rest of the week unfolds better.

[MissHoneychurch]

4. Hey billy

:hug: :loveya: :hi:

Why blue?
It is only the second day of the week. It will get better.

[billyskank]

6. Dunno

It was cold, dark and lonely at home last night, and it got to me.

[MissHoneychurch]

9. I know what you mean

:hug:

Posting silly things on DU helps against that :D

[boilerbabe]

15. /why was it blue?? n/t

[SeattleGirl]

5. Good morning, Miss Honey!

That pic is gorgeous!

Good to see you, gf! :hi: :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

10. Good morning Seattle Girl

pic was taken in Sweden this summer. So called Raukar. They have a bunch of those stone thingys there. We were there early morning, no one else there but us. It felt like the end of the world.

Good to see you too. How are you?

:hug: :loveya: :hi:

[Connonym]

16. photo is breathtaking

Did you make me pancakes this morning? :-P

[MissHoneychurch]

18. Thank you

you didn't come to eat my first batch. :(

[Connonym]

19. I did but was just getting off work after working all night

so I was dead tired

[AirmensMom]

11. Good morning, MissHC.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Great pic! :yourock:

Sorry you had a bad dream. :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

12. Good morning AirmensMom

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Seems like you didn't sleep to well either :hug:

[Callalily]

21. Morning AirmensMom!

Hope all is well in your neck of the woods.

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

[boilerbabe]

13. was your dream in color?

hope not, I heard that it's not so good if so...otherwise your pic for the day is very nice....I almost always have negative dreams for some reason. Oh well. The best thing to do if life and dreams both suck is to read some good books! XXXOOO

[MissHoneychurch]

17. Dream was in color ...

... I think. Fortunately I woke up when it got to the worst part. The last thing before I woke up was that I got out of the car and screamed "Stop it!!"

First time I remember that I had a violent dream.

Reading books is fun :D

[Callalily]

20. Good morning MissH!

Your picture is fantastic!

Sorry to hear about your bad dream. Were you able to get back to sleep? Are you well rested today? Maybe leave work early!

I've taken tomorrow off as a vacation day. Add that to the Thanksgiving break, and I've got five days off in a row. Yippee!

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

[MissHoneychurch]

22. Good morning Simply

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

Woke up at my normal time. I did nap in between hitting the snooze button though :)

Oh lucky you!!!! Any plans for Thanksgiving?

[Callalily]

23. Glad you got to snooze

a bit. Yes, I'm heading to Minneapolis for a couple of days. Should be fun. Sort of like a mini-vacation.

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

25. Oh, my snooze gets a lot of workout

:rofl:

It takes me an hour between the first alarm and getting up :blush:

You gonna meet with family or friends?

:hug:

[Callalily]

27. LOL, unfortunately I'm an

early bird. Get up far too early, then I tire by mid day. That's why I like weekends. Can easily take a nap. They frown on napping at work.

Yes, visiting family and friends in the Twin Cities.

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

28. I am not able to go to bed at a decent time

like last night. I wanted to go to bed around 11pm. When did I finally turned off the light? Midnight. :eyes:

A yes ... an afternoon nap I wouldn't mind. But since they frown on it here too I have to eat a brownie to get some sugar into my body :D

[Wapsie B]

24. Good morning!

And time for this night owl to get to bed. :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

26. Good night

sweet dreams :hi:

[blueraven95]

29. good afternoon!

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

31. Hey there blueraven

good morning :hi:

How are you today? It is a crazy day here at work. I actually have to work :wow: A lot of customers and colleagues ask me about computer problems since I am the substitute for our computer guy (who has 2 more weeks vacation). Of course now the problems show up en masse :eyes:

[blueraven95]

34. of course!

the minute the IT guy leaves everything breaks down. It's a law of the universe.


I'm busier than I expected to be today. This is the last day before a lot of people start taking off for Thanksgiving so they are trying to get a lot done, consequently I'm busy. I'll be in tomorrow, which should be extremely quiet.


I registered for my first grad class yesterday, and now I'm excited. It's "Science Fiction film in the 20th century" - how cool is that. Actually, I think the title is almost redundant, since almost all of film has been in the 20th century, so far.

[MissHoneychurch]

36. The day after the computer guy vanished for 3 weeks

and me not really knowing it ... first the internet went down (more than once - figured that out fortunately), the cashier broke down (no idea how that is supposed to get fixed, they called the company) and now what looks like a virus (so far I know of 3 PCs in the network that showed that problem) ...

I think you get the idea.

Well, we are almost 9 years into the 21st century :D

[blueraven95]

39. wow, sounds like you are completely overrun

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

40. If it gets worse

we gonna call a computer guy we know to help us. No way I am trying to fix it myself. Not my job. Beside, I wouldn't know what to do anyway.
My PC was messed up too since Friday but I uploaded some Microsoft updates and since then it is working without problems again.

Oh ... and I do have my job to do in between too :D

[blueraven95]

41. major hugs to you

should we be hoping it gets better by itself or worse so someone comes in to fix it and takes the load off you? :shrug:

:hug: :hug: :hug:



I'm glad it's not me - for all the time I spend on a computer, I still would have practically no idea what to do with anything that's not a Mac. And network issues are beyond me.

[MissHoneychurch]

42. Aww thank you

It calmed down.

It was a busy day overall. Lot of customers today, normally we are a quiet library. Of course it can't be one day this and the other day that. No, it has all to come together. Murphy's law strikes again :D

:hug:

Can you pick SiFI movies for your class yourself? And if yes, which will you pick?

[blueraven95]

49. I don't know if we can pick movies,

but I would make sure we watched "Metropolis" and I'm hoping for some really silly ones like "Plan 9 from Outer Space". I'm really looking forward to it, the course description said it would be an historical look at scifi film - with films like "Star Wars" and "Bladerunner" so I'm hoping it's good. It's being taught by the head of the department, and she is definitely an interesting woman to talk to.

[MissHoneychurch]

51. How about comparison

between the original (Star Wars) and the silly re-do (Space Balls)? :D

[blueraven95]

56. that would be fun!

I like both.


Or what about comparing the original 3 with the prequels.

[MissHoneychurch]

57. Enough ideas I would say

:)

I am about to leave work. Thanks for the chat. It was fun - as always.

Have a great day and don't work too hard :D

[blueraven95]

58. have a great evening!

:hi:

[Beer Snob-50]

30. good morning to you!

that is a beautiful picture and has helped me relax after a rough start. i woke up late, didn't have time to shave, started a fire for the family (thermostat set for 58 and it was a little damp this am), and then my son missed the bus. oh well, can dream about being at the ocean.

[MissHoneychurch]

32. Good morning

:hug:

You are not the only one who has a hectic day. Mine seems to become more and more hectic the longer the day goes :crazy:

[DarkTirade]

33. Futz, is it morning already?

:hangover:

:P

[MissHoneychurch]

37. It is actually afternoon already

... in Germany :D


:coffee:

[BarenakedLady]

35. I had a bad dream too

I dreamed that I saw my dog get hit by a car. I woke up upset and then fell back asleep. Then I dreamed that I told people about the dream I just had.

:crazy:

My week started ok. We have a new female model in Figure Drawing. I saw waaaaaaaaay more of her than I needed to.

:wow:

[MissHoneychurch]

38. And now you are telling people for real

:crazy:

Hope your doggy stays safe :hug:

[malta blue]

43. what an unpleasant dream

:hug:

How has your day been progressing?

Mine has been going well. I am switching departments at work today. My new boss is rumored to be a dream to work for :bounce:

[MissHoneychurch]

44. Good morning

My day has been busy. But it is coming to an end. It calmed down :)

Cool, I hope you get along with him/her!!!! :bounce:

[kentauros]

45. Good moanin'!

:P

Nice pic; that your backyard? :D

Here's a dream-dictionary for ya: The Curious Dreamer

Violence or people who commit violence can represent:
Actual or feared persecution, hostility, aggression, criticism, or attack
Hostility, hatred, intolerance of whatever is being attacked
Insecurity, or fear of whatever is being attacked
Feeling threatened
Lack of compassion, understanding, reverence, or respect of others
Feeling that the world is an unfriendly place
A current or recent situation where you feel your boundaries were crossed or your integrity been compromised

[MissHoneychurch]

46. Morning

:*

Wish it was my backyard. But it is in Sweden on Gotland.

Thanks for the dream dictionary. But I can't say any of that fits :shrug: Maybe it was just the images of the turkeys being slaughtered behind Sarah Palin I saw yesterday evening. Or it was Sarah Palin herself :scared:

[kentauros]

53. I refuse to watch that video.

Even if I wasn't vegetarian, I still wouldn't watch it. Stuff like that bothers me. The movie "Baraka" has scenes of the little chicks being "processed" and tossed down various shutes while still alive. I love the movie, but that part can only be viewed with your heart turned off :(

Perhaps it was Palin that triggered your dream. Was she the one doing the beating? Trying to improve morale? ;)

The dictionary is just a fun thing. Plug in other elements of the dream and see what comes up.

Here's an actual backyard view (not mine, but my parents'.) :)

[MissHoneychurch]

55. Wow, that is gorgeous

your parents are lucky :)

Soon my view from home will be this



I saw "the" video on Countdown. The blended over the worst part. It was hilarious actually, because the guy doing his job kept looking over to Palin :rofl:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

47. Good Morning/Afternoon

I had to work overtime yesterday. Today is my last day and then I am off til Monday :woohoo:

[MissHoneychurch]

48. Good morning Tuesday Afternoon

:D

Lucky you!!! No Thanksgiving here in Germany ... no days off :(

But I am happy for you :D

Hope today you don't have to work overtime.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

50. where I work is not closed but, I had enough PTO (paid time off)

to cover 3 days and I always off Sat and Sun off so it adds up. It was la st minute thing last night. A co-worker needed my advice and assistance. My expertise can not be denied ;) :D

It is really not OT because I will not work a full 40 hours this week. But I did have to stay longer than the required 8 hours. That happens almost nightly though. Maybe just 15 minutes, maybe an hour, maybe 4 hours. Stuff happens and blows well laid plans wide open where I work.

[MissHoneychurch]

52. Overtime can be useful

:)

That is why I try to work longer as well, so that I have time off when I need it without taking vacation.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

54. Yay for Overtime and Yay for vacations!!

:woohoo:
