[RevolutionaryActs]

http://animal.discovery.com/cams/pandavidr.html

[RevolutionaryActs]

16. That's sooooooooo cute!

:loveya:




It's really, really cool you found a DJ Panda too! :D

[progmom]

28. merh found it for me!!

:)

[Catherine Vincent]

35. Those are cute!

Merh is the best!

[RevolutionaryActs]

36. merh is awesome

:D



I had to find mine on my own! :cry:



:P

[Jara sang]

3. I cleaned the apt.

and I closed on the condo we were selling.

[progmom]

6. very productive!

:hi:

[achtung_circus]

4. I went to the hospital

and picked up my MRI to take it to the neurologist on Monday. That's all. I'm on "leave" until I get my medical status figured out.

[progmom]

9. what did your GP say yesterday?

:hug:

[achtung_circus]

18. He said that the neurologist is the best seizure doc in Ontario,

that it might just take a revision in medication, and not to read too much into a computer generated diagnosis. A cardiologist will provide a much better interpretation than an EKG machine can.

Plus my boss freaked.

I am now about to quit smoking, and just lit the last cigarette I own.

[progmom]

25. i'm honored to be here to share your last cig with you

and i am here if you ever need to vent. :hug:

you will continue to be in my thoughts.

[achtung_circus]

29. Thanks, Progmom.

G'night all.

And so to bed.

[Swede]

5. Went to a Chinese smorg for lunch today.

Ate too much and was useless at work the rest of the day. :)

[progmom]

10. i was that way after japanese with mrs grumpy on wednesday

:hi:

[tarkus]

7. I did absolutely nothing today.

Not a bad day, all in all. Not terribly productive though.

[progmom]

14. oh - i like days like that!

:hi:

[aQuArius]

8. I went to practice for "Ragtime"

that, and I counted $27,000+ in small bills. LOL :)

[progmom]

15. do you work retail?

i used to have to do that. :)

[aQuArius]

20. Nope, I count cash for a large non-retail company

I could tell you, but then I'd have to have the Mafia keep you quiet.

[AlGore-08.com]

11. You mean, besides watching the panda cam?

Um...

Um...

I fed the cat.

Twice!

[progmom]

17. i can't blame you

:)
i was the same.

[Robeson]

12. Did my lap swimming.

[progmom]

21. how many laps?

and good for you!!!!

[Robeson]

32. I swam a mile tonight, which is 32 laps. I usually like to go a....

...one-and-a-half miles, but I got to the fitness center late, so thats all I could get in. I also did my ab-crunches and push-ups and stretching exercises, so it OK I didn't get that extra half mile in.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

13. *um* well, gee progmom....I don't want to get your thread locked....

But otherwise, I went to the gym, and did some laundry...and had a very nice nap! Going to the gym really does a number on this old dame!

[progmom]

30. a good number, i hope.

and good for you about the other thing! :evilgrin:

[swag]

19. Ate me a sandwich.

[progmom]

31. what kind of sandwich, swag?

was it wrapped in wax paper? that's how i am picturing it.

[swag]

34. The sandwich you're picturing is fit for a proud lunch pale.

Do you ever get any days off from your job?

[progmom]

37. i am taking all next week off

:bounce: :)

[swag]

41. Excellent news.

Happy summer and sleeping in.

[progmom]

45. why thank you!

not much sleeping in with a 3 year-old though. but we'll get some swimming in, and that will be great!

[mike_c]

22. did a little work....

Not too much though.

[progmom]

33. good - never do too much work on a friday!

:)

[RandomKoolzip]

23. Downloaded a bunch of Grateful Dead shows and put them on my iPod.

I know, I know....the Dead suck. :eyes:

I also worked.

[progmom]

38. aw - you took all the fun out of telling you the Dead suck

:P

[RandomKoolzip]

43. Believe me, I've taken miles of shit for liking the Dead.

Especially for someone who prides himself on the hip cache his record collection provides.

But I don't care; y'all can't see what I'm hearing. :hi:

[progmom]

44. i like some questionable music too

;)

[madinmaryland]

24. Listened to Jim Croce on PBS.

Incredible lyrics 35 years later, and still loving it.

[progmom]

39. sounds like fun!

:)

[Viking12]

65. Heart had a special on our local PBS channel

music sucked but Nancy Wilson aged nicely. She's kinda hot :bounce:

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

26. I turned a business client into a friend.

Hey- sometimes you just make a connection. It really does happen!

[progmom]

40. for real?

great!

[gmoney]

27. Watched "Office Space" Again

"Since I started working, every day has been worse than the day before, so every day you see me is the worst day of my life."

"Wow, that's messed up."

[progmom]

42. i love that movie!

:hi:

[Telly Savalas]

46. Spent nearly 2 hours total on hold with the Air Canada pigfuckers...

trying to ascertain what they did with our luggage.

Alternate, less grumpy answer: had a great time with the family at the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner for my brother's wedding. We only make it down here once or twice a year, so it's great to see everybody.

[progmom]

48. so what DID happen with your luggage?

x( i am so sorry you're going through that!!

[Telly Savalas]

58. I never got a clear answer...

but when we returned from the dinner it had been delivered and was sitting on the porch.

I can deal with the fact that there was a mistake with the luggage. Nobody's perfect. What pissed me off though was that the official stance of the airline seemed to be "we don't give a shit that you're 800 miles from home without a change of clothes" and their unwillingness to give me any information regarding the location of the baggage and when we could expect to get it.

And yes, I would like some cheese to go with that whine.

[bettyellen]

47. i worked on my kitty duo adoption-

they're practically irish and practically twins and they're still in tenesee

[Wapsie B]

53. She's 15.

[progmom]

:hug:

[Corey_Baker08]

56. I Worked and it Sucked Cause I go back to school next Week

[u4ic]

57. I picked raspberries from my father's raspberry bush

I got eaten alive, but I could open up a fruit stand with the amount of berries I've got now. :9

[Tom Kitten]

59. Busy day for me

long
stressful
but rewarding.

you
asked
for
only one thing.

I decided for sure I'm moving at the end of September.

[Susang]

60. Made a lot of bikers really happy

Top that one! :P

[sundog]

61. tonight i tried to block today out

so, in telling you something i did today, i'd ultimately be remembering... which is something i REALLY don't want to do right now :P

[AussieDave]

62. Saturday afternoon here

Bought speakers for my computer so I could better listen to Air America radio and KGO in San Francisco (the lovely Karel).....

[Viking12]

63. I went fishing!!

Twice. My wife and kids are out of town at the Grandparents so I skipped work, went out for a few hours this morning, did soem house work during the day, and went back out for a few hours tonight. MMM, walleye dinner :)

[nuxvomica]

64. Drove from NH to upstate NY in a car without A/C

It wasn't all that bad. Thankfully, it didn't rain cuz you can't have the windows rolled down when it rains.

[WCGreen]

66. Ran into Dennis K tonight at a political thing I went to

Really did;t get a chance to talk but he was at the city where the memorial was happening for all the marines killed.... Just said hey. He was surprised by my O2 tube. Hadn't seen him in awhile...

We use to do things together when he was first running for the congressional seat he has now and I was running for the State Senate in a large chunk of the congressional district....

The night after he won and I lost, we spent hours in a hospital room with a mutual friend who was diagnosed with pervasive cancer....
We just sat there, talking about the election swapping stories. Doing anything to take the subject of off cancer....

It a great but horrible memory I have.....



:cry:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

67. You put it extremely well, WC....

great but horrible...absolutely...wins and losses...all over the place...

How wonderful that you got to see him, even briefly, today...And he remembered you..Fantastic!

:pals:

[WCGreen]

69. A good day CP, A very good day....

GLad I could spend a little time with you

[EstimatedProphet]

68. I went to an auction

For DU con fanatics: I picked up 3 large cents, dates 1844, 1847, and 1852 for $7 each, an 1865 2 cent piece and an 1865 3 cent nickel for $16 each. One of the pennies might rate a 12 to 15, but the rest should rate at least 30 or better. The 2 cent piece has some corrosion, but little wear (probably about a 40) and the 3 cent piece is likely about a 50.
I think I did pretty well.
