Good Thursday Morning, Crew!

[Random_Australian]

Sorry to dissappoint for a half-arsed thread but I feel not good.

Talk amongst yourselves, then!

Sorry again. Urrrrrrrgh.

Time to rise and shine, crew!

Song of the day is "I am feeling sick and sleepy and I am eating and going to bed" by R_A.

The real song of the day is "Take Five".

Edit: Actually, I will pop in but it won't be quick today.

[Heidi]

2. May I call you "sunshine"?

That's what I always call Clint. :hug:

[Random_Australian]

3. Morning Heidi!

Got in just before I left!

Sure you can! I will call you moonbeams though, as moonshine is highly illegal and highly alcoholic.

:)

[AirmensMom]

4. Oh my, RA.

I hope you feel better soon! ;hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

8. Good morning MissAirmens

just got back to my desk. Was in another interview. There are more this afternoon. I just can't attend those as my boss isn't here today and my co-worker has a hlaf-time position and just left. So someone else from the workers association is sitting in the next two interviews.

How are you doing today?

:hug: :loveya: :pals:

[AirmensMom]

17. There you are!

:loveya: :hug:

Had to work a bit, eh? :rofl:

I'm OK, thanks. Tired, though. I was hoping to wake up and find that rrr's daughter was back.

[Random_Australian]

20. Had to eat something, actually.

Very plain dinner is great for when you are sick. I feel quite a bit better.

Though I am a touch shamed to admit it, most of the bad feeling was simply from not getting work done today.... I feel like I let myself down, but it is that close to bed that I will not get anything done productive now.

Mmmmlnnghharrumph I do not like it when I let myself down. The feeling is pretty intense.

Edit: I replied to the wrong one! OOPS! *ngslfgsfg*

[AirmensMom]

32. Food is a good thing.

:9 I'm glad it helped.

You can't do everything you want every day. Sometimes things aren't going to get done. No point beating yourself up over it. :shrug: I'm sure you'll feel better after a good sleep.

[Random_Australian]

45. Sleep?

Yes, I welcome the soft embrace of sweetest sleep, the silent and the warm, the ward of the mind and body, to walk free in a land without fear, for within the sleeping mind, harm never comes.

I am getting so tired that I am getting poetic. Oh dear. Bed soon, I think.

[MissHoneychurch]

24. At least she called rrr

even though rrr couldn't pick up. it is a good sign, also that she talked on the voicemail instead of just hanging up again.

Well, it isn't really work to sit in a hot room and listen to someone who tries to get a position with us. Not much asked from me except sweating :rofl:

Now I am back in the library, sitting on my desk, turning on the webradio as soon as I figured out what I want to listen to. And jsut work in peace as no customer is in at the moment.

Edit: Just got a customer, but he is the former director of the house and he jsut sits quietly in the reading room and doesn't need much attention.

[AirmensMom]

27. Yeah, I know.

It's just been such a long, scary wait and I've been aching for rrr.

I used to HATE listening to them. I didn't even like reading the resumes. I call it work! :rofl:

You do have a dream job, don't you? And to think you almost gave that up ...

[Random_Australian]

12. A lovely dinner and I am much better, good morning Miss Airmens!

Except that I am hiiting the wrong letter twice constantly.

Edit to fix dinner
and better
and good
and Miss
and letter!

SHEESH!

[AirmensMom]

19. That's good!

Good morning, RA! :hi:

[Random_Australian]

25. uh, see above for my response.

Here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=5423455&mesg_id=5423498

I responded to the wrong one!

[tjwmason]

5. Good evening Random.

I hope that you manage to feel better soon, you poor boy. :hug:

[Random_Australian]

13. I do, a little. Better late than never!

So how are you?

[tjwmason]

33. I'm doing splendidly here, thank you.

:hi:

[Random_Australian]

47. Great to here!

For though you and I have never met, the knowledge that in the world happiness exists is always a light in the darkness; may it never dwindle. Someday though, it will be candle no longer, but the burning beacon to illuminate the path of humanity; that one day so many of us will be happy.

I am getting so tired I am getting poetic. I need sleep soon!

[Cannikin]

6. An early good morning to you all!

[tjwmason]

10. Good morning Cannikin.

:hi:

How are you this fine day?

:hug:

[Random_Australian]

14. Good morning Cannikin!

Early good morning to you too! :pals:

So how is the great Cannikin today?

[Cannikin]

58. I'm well, thank you! How about you two?

[Callalily]

7. Morning Random

Sure hope you feel better soon. I've been battling a summer cold for two weeks now. Not fun. Wising a good morning to the rest of you also.

[MissHoneychurch]

9. Morning SimplyF

I am here, just came back from an interview. Gosh, it is really good to sit on the other side and not be the one who gets interviewed. But it is hard to make the right decision nevertheless.

How you doing today?

[Callalily]

16. Yeah that interview

process is stressful, for all parties involved. I'm still not my perky self, this cold just seems to keep hanging on. Not getting anything done at home, saving my energy for work. How dedicated, huh?

Be sure to

[MissHoneychurch]

26. I will email you for sure

actually I already answered your pm :)

I am sure we will find a way to meet and a date which is perfect for us all.

[Callalily]

31. Just read your

msg. Yes, I'm confident that we can work something out. Sure would be nice!

I've gotta be heading off to work now. Hope your interviews go well, and that you find someone that is a perfect fit.

[MissHoneychurch]

41. You have a great day

:hi:

And we WILL work something out!!!! Something else would be not acceptable :)

[Random_Australian]

15. Good morning and thanks, SF!

I summer cold? Nasty!

So how are you today?

[Callalily]

21. Other than my cold?

Tired . . . :rofl: And the day is just starting for me! How are you feeling though. Not fun being sick, especially at the start of first term.

[Random_Australian]

28. start of first term?

'tis my third! (We start in February/March)

Thanks for the hug! :hug: backatcha!

I must admit I am looking forward to sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.

Mmmmmmmm.

So, what time is it there?

[Callalily]

35. It's 6:30 a.m

as I type this. Sry, I forgot you're all backwards down there! :rofl:

Gotta head off to work now. Wishing you a great day, hope that you feel better, and more importantly, hope that you run into Naomi.

[Random_Australian]

40. Thanks! Cya!

[AirmensMom]

22. Good morning, SF!

:hi: Aren't you feeling better yet? x(

[MissHoneychurch]

11. Hello R_A

you better get well soon :hug:

We want you healthy and happy here, so tuck yourself in bed or we will come over and do that. And you don't want a bunch of women there who all could be your mother (more or less - some of them would be REALLY young mothers :) )


:hug:

[Random_Australian]

18. Good morning Miss Honey!

I am going to go to bed rather early today, so no worries.:)

You're quite right about how young mothers they would be. In the case of WIMR, I think about -4 years old.

That would be a new record. :)

[MissHoneychurch]

30. LOL

Now that would truly be a new record :rofl:

I was rather trying to show you how fussy we all would be while putting you to bed :D

[Random_Australian]

38. I have entered that stage of sleepiness where irratibility is giving way

to becoming sort of mellow. Next I get poetic! But I'm kinda sleepy so I might go to bed, as it is warm and nice and cosy and the new blamket feel like moonlight and sweet silver clouds spun into cosy cloth, fending so gently the frost; and oh shit I am entering the poetic bit! Woot yay I am gonna sound like an idiot because I am damn tired.

[MissHoneychurch]

44. You sure haven't lost your humor

:hug:

Go to bed sweetie and wake up feeling better again :pals:

[Random_Australian]

49. Yes I have lost it, were did I put it? Damn, no wait, it is over there!

Between the vaccum cleaner and the palm trees so tall, so magnificent yet so gentle as they sweep the skies in the cool breeze, reaching, always reaching for the skies like the people who live with them, but such a column that does not hate itself as the humans do, though the dear price it pays is to never love itself; a price it's sighing makes sound all to dear.

Whoops, there I go again. Well, they call me the Random_Australian for good reason!

[MissHoneychurch]

55. You lost me now

:shrug:

I hope it is me who is confused :)

[AirmensMom]

23. Pssst!

He's younger than my kids ... I would qualify as one of those OLD mothers, huh? :shrug:

[Random_Australian]

29. How much younger than your kids?

I am 18 btw but I think you know that already... if I got WIMR's age right anyway.

[AirmensMom]

37. One of them will be 29 next month

and the other will be 27. Of course, I was a baby when they were born. :D

[Random_Australian]

39. Of course, which is why you are going to be 21 this year, I hear.

Heh heh.

[AirmensMom]

46. Not exactly.

There's going to be a 0 at the end after my next birthday. :scared:

[Random_Australian]

50. Well then, from you it seems the winds of time have stolen me,

for now I must to bed, but fear not the graces of time, for though it carries us apart now, it carries us toward our next meeting with the same pace.

Just as soon as I answer the other people.

[AirmensMom]

53. Such poetry ...

:loveya:

Get yourself a good sleep! :hug: :hi:

[Random_Australian]

54. One last thing... was that sarcastic or do you really think it is good?

btw, :loveya: anyways and :hug: and goodnight!

[AirmensMom]

56. I wasn't being sarcastic.

I thought it was very poetic and creative ... and it looked good to me. :)

Goodnight! :loveya: :hug: :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

34. Did I mention the word "old" somewhere?

I don't think so!!!!

[AirmensMom]

42. You mentioned REALLY young ...

and I'm not that. I was going for the opposite end of the spectrum. :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

48. You wouldn't have been -4 like WIMR

as R_A pointed out. But that doesn't make you OLD!!!! Capice??? :rofl:

:hug:

My mom (who is your age) has a postcard at home: "I am not old, I am marinating" ... I am not saying you or she are old

[AirmensMom]

51. Well, one good thing ...

I'm no longer twice my kids' ages like I was 10 years ago. :rofl:

Don't worry, I don't consider myself (or your mom) old ... just well-seasoned. :rofl: :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

57. My mom is exactly

25 years older than me and my grandma 25 years older than my mom .... we all have a name that ends with the letter -a

I am a bad daughter because I didn't have a girl baby in 2000 ... I told my mom, it wasn't the problem of opportunities .... :rofl:


Did I mention that I don't consider you old either? Or my mom?

[AirmensMom]

59. Oh, that's something.

We were the bad kids in our families, too.

First, I messed up the family pattern of boy,girl,boy,girl ... then I came along. :shrug:

Then, harleydad was supposed to have a son and continue with the family naming convention that's been used since the A family married the C family. Goofed that up, too, by having a girl. If harleykid has a boy one of these days, she may or may not continue it. But it wouldn't really work anyway since she changed her name when she got married. :shrug:

Yes, we are all problem children. :rofl:

You're funny. I remember thinking 40 was old when I was your age. But, yes, you have mentioned that you don't consider me or your mom old. :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

60. Don't trust anybody over 30

:rofl:

It's been a while since I considered 40 or 50 old. The only strange feeling I get is when I think that my dad would have turned 60 this year. Nothing I can imagine. 60 is an age - I don't know - that I consider not really old but it is more of a break - if you want to say though - than 50. Maybe because till some years ago that was the age you retired (Now it is 65 and when I am that age at least 67 ... maybe I even have to work till I am 70. Who knows.) My boss is 65 and retires end of this year. I don't consider her old either. Maybe it has something to do with your wit and how you keep yourself. Does that make sense?

My brother and I are the only ones of our generation who don't have kids or are married. My three cousins have 6 children (+ plus one in the oven)

[AirmensMom]

61. You will notice

that as you get older, "old" becomes a much bigger number. :rofl: 60 doesn't look terribly old to me now. 70 is pushing it. It has everything to do with both of those things -- that's what aging gracefully is about, not botox. Yeah, it makes sense.

Well, harleykid doesn't have a kid yet and she's just a little younger than you. We're waiting ... :shrug:

I really should get going. Harleydad was going to make me some cappuccino and I have to go bug him about it. I NEED to wake up! See you in a while. :loveya: :hug: :hi:

[swimboy]

65. HA!

I needed a big blue genii about now! Thank you!

:hug: :loveya: :hug:





And now back to work :cry:

[MissHoneychurch]

69. They come handy

:)

:hug:

[riona]

36. Fl check-in

Take it easy today and feel better. Thanks for taking over the morning group.

[Random_Australian]

43. Good morning fl!

Fear not my health, a robust constitution and a sweet nights sleep will drive the sick from my veins.

[Random_Australian]

52. Time to get going to bed, crew! I am getting poetic!

I woke up enough to type this not to start gabbling, but look above and you will see some *rather* unusual things from me. Sorry!

Well then, have a nice morning and take care of each other!

:bounce::bounce:

[bigwillq]

62. Hey Clint!

:hi: Hope you feel better. :hug:

[tjwmason]

63. Hey there Will.

:hi:

It sounds as though Clint is a dash better, but still very snowed under for the moment. He is very keen to get back to us all as quickly as he can.

Hope you're having a good day.

:hug:

[bigwillq]

64. My day is going alright.

I have to work later but it shouldn't be that bad. Hope all is well with you! :hi:

[swimboy]

66. bigwill!

how are you? our paths haven't crossed for some time! It's good to see you.

:hug: :hi:

[bigwillq]

68. It's good to see you too!

I am well. Been busy with work, out on assignments a lot. Haven't had much time to post! How are you? :hi: :hug:

[swimboy]

67. Hello, you!

:glancesaround:


Buh-bye now!

:loveya: :*

[bigwillq]

70. Bye!

:hi: :hug:
