Friday Hug - Part 2

ROFLMAO!

that would be more like chili jokes to the US of A or ... yankee jokes to the Canadians ... guess I was mistaken ... btw the New Orleans boys did do a nice job didn't they

That's where Col is.

:)

The only Aussie culture is yeast.

but when you got your adverts we got "experts" talking about the previous play. It was on BBC2 this year so no adverts AT ALL. In the first twelve minutes, four minutes of actual play and eight minutes of verbal diarrhoea!

OK, I possibly need a *bit* of analysis for such a foreign sport but, God!, I was bored witless and went to bed less than half an hour after the kick off.

Neil :)

The match is now on BBC iPlayer as edited highlights so I might just watch.

Is it a "good" match? Worth watching?

Back from weight in at gym. Since Dec 31 I have lost 9.2kg (20 pounds) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dropped 3.5 points off BMI and 2.5% off my body fat ratio. < twirls around >
* nows who is D@MN pround of herself??? *

(((hugs)))

I'm worn out shoveling here in NJ. We just had a foot of snow 3 days ago and now we're getting another foot or two. My company is trying to decide - delayed opening or SNOW DAY!!!

I'm voting for the snow day. :^0

AV

I think the state owns a couple of plows, but they are based somewhere in the hills where they do get some snow, so they can keep I-85 clean.

It's definitely not like where I grew up, where every Jeep had a plow.

Its so pretty, but 2 Nor'easters in a week is hard to take. Its approaching 2 1/2 feet of snow in my backyard and its snowing like crazy. I need hip boots.

I might be looking at a snow day tomorrow too if it doesn't stop soon. Hope I bought enough wine to make it through. :p Tonite its homemade spaghetti and meatballs with sausage for dinner. I don't know what it is about snowstorms that makes me hungry. You just need comfort food at a time like this. :^0

skiing fun starts :)

just an other 4 hours and the fun starts
off to the alps ... woohoo

Have a nice weekend and a great week
lots of snow in Switzerland ... downside is that it's very cold as well but ... if the sun is out ... it's all gonna be bright and shiny :)

((((((( great week[end] hugs )))))))

Some pix of the snow here in SC.

Edit: I'll be adding more pictures as the day progresses, so check again later.

Been one of those days. Just finished supper at almost 9pm ET.

Beer and scotch on the way.

(((((((((((((((((((( All you TR People ))))))))))))))))))))

Even though my day has been $h1+...

I'm here to hug anyways.

Hope you all are having a better day than me. :)

I even got to sleep in till 0800. :D

Col

Started in Augusta, then back by the house to pick up the parts Fedex delivered, then to Columbia, then back to Augusta.

The new Zune helped a lot. If nothing else, I had some great music to listen to while driving. That helped immensely when I encountered a Beemer-boob with a Z-4. Fast, slow, left lane, right lane, this id10t was all over the place. And all of it to a soundtrack by Godsmack. Love it.

Aside: Why does it seem that the more money people have, the less able they are to do more than point their cars down the road?

etu

odd, bright gray sky (((( hugs )))).

sharp edges....paper cuts..
< cringes >

Its something to look forward to after this very long winter. This winter isn't about to end for us here. We're expecting 5 days of rain, snow and sleet this week. Triple Yuk! Another fun commute.

AV

It's a month away, but what the heck

(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((( warm hugs ))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Morning at the Beach, no tickets in the queue, just finished cleaning out the truck.

Guess I have to drive back home now (((hugs))).

I can't take it anymore. Another 1 to 2 feet of snow!!!!

Another Nor'easter. When is it going to stop. :_| At least this time I got some treats to eat during the snowstorm. Cookies! Vanilla cookies dipped in chocolate . . .

AV

the hugest box of Hot Tamales I've ever seen !!

:)

tasty tasty!

I cancelled plans. Working when I shouldn't be.

Things will work out one way or the other. I have 3 jobs in the pipe right now. One with a rehab equipment company, one with a utility, and one with a communications firm.

All three are talking to me, and the one company a friend of mine manages the satellite comm portion so I could get hired in 10 minutes if I needed to.

They have 22-35 year old girl scout leaders. :D

Thin mints, a 22-35 year old girl scout leader, and a bottle of...scotch ]:)

AHHH MATEY!!! B-)

etu

{{{{{{{{{{ [b]HUGS[/b] }}}}}}}}}}

-3C when I got to work here at the office.

Wondering if it's colder here again than in Ireland.

((((((((((((((((((((((((( keep warm hugs )))))))))))))))))))))))))

wish i had the month off :(

but yes.."oh well"

thankfully its friday..actually asking myself if that really makes it any better..don't think so...

Wish I was there to give you a big ole hug.

Fridays are better, as long as you have somewhere you can get away from everything that bothers/aggravates you.

That's why if I lived in Dublin, I'd find a quaint, homey, warm little pub, find a nice little seat near the live music, and sit there and enjoy Guinness until they told me to go home.

But, that's just me. I love the pub scene and the traditional live music.

When I get over there, I'm gonna get you out in Temple Bar (might even call my friend who was once going to be a nun to join us), we're gonna hit all sorts of pubs, and forget work, life, stress, etc., and just laugh and smile

...and make fun of jdclyde. :^0

all depends on what is bothering one doesn't it.

well, will be going for drinks..the usual friday thing..don't really feel like it though. however i shall make the effort..

i'll stay away form the Guiness tho..its more of a double vodka night i think

I'd be doing Guinness...or Strongbow...if I was there.

I'll be doing vodka and OJ tonight (after I get home from the night out with the niece and her family) in quantity.

But yeah...get away from things. Just make it a night about you relaxing and enjoying whatever you do. :)

((((((((((((((((((((( have some fun or else hugs!! lol )))))))))))))))))))))))

won't exactly be getting away from anything.. unless you meant that i should drink myself unconscious? :)

OJ won't be part of the plan for this evening..waters it down too much .. a couple of ice cubes..badda bing..bobs yer uncle..

Nooooooo...no straight vodka for me.

Only scotch goes neat or on ice.

Even tequila I have to do in jello or something now. :^0

or its a bit harsh allright.. a lot of the stuff you'll get in the pub is basically paint remover..need a splash of giner ale to smooth it out a wee bit..

an hour and a half..and i think i can escape unnoticed.. * tick.. toooock..tiiiiiick....tooooooock *

This is our third major snow in 2 weeks. No work today - the office is closed.

We have almost 2 feet of snow in NJ and its going to continue to snow into tomorrow.

AV

{{{{Snowy HUGS}}}}

hopefully tonight will be good for me.

hope yours turns out great

(((((((((((((((((((((( have fun ))))))))))))))))))))))

Well...hrm...it was a lovely belly button. ]:)

Ah hell. I gotta behave. I might start getting love messages from the powers that be if I'm not careful. :(

We've only been discussing the merits of consuming alcoholic beverages from organic containers. ;\

The rest of which is best only imagined.

Thank god the weekend is almost over...roll on Monday morning..

cos I needed a lot lately.

Still do.

Hadn't any idea how much our daily routine was scheduled around Murff's timetable.

((((((( missing a team member hugs ))))))

Scotty, I hope he found you :x

GG

hmm..is there such a thing?

Although not as heartbreaking as GG's lose, we've had our own mild dilemas here.
Three weeks ago, I borrowed some hugs as Darryl got sick (not in a bad way, but he did have to spend a bit of time in the hospital; I'll let him tell the rest of the story there). He was hospitalized in a town about an hour's drive from here. The good docs got him fixed up and home about 5 days later.

Last week, there were multiple trips by multiple family members while my Mom had cateracts (? spelling) removed from her right eye, she's legally blind but removing the cateracts should bring it back some. Between my brother, sister-in-law, and myself (with my sister as my co-pilot), we got her from Springhill to Halifax and back again two days in a row. And then there's all the other daily stuff inbetween all that. So....here's some hugs back for the hug bank ((((hug))))((((hug))))((((hug))))((((hug))))((((hug))))((((hug))))((((hug))))((((hug))))((((hug))))((((hug))))((((hug))))((((hug))))((((hug))))((((hug))))((((hug))))((((hug)))) And I hope everyone has been well :)
