May I advance a very useful graphic?

(_l_) or if you want to show motion (_/_) (_\_)

Always glad to assist where I can.

:D:D:D:D:D

OOOoooooo. Thanks BigMama. I'm gonna use that.

Let me try it.... (_|_)

MAWAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!

chortle

Wait. Where are we. There's the TVM.... It's going to take a while for me to re-install the coil. nl will take you all out to breakfast while I do that. Bring me back a large latte.

:wink:

I want strawberry waffles with whipped cream and hot cocoa.

by **Gamgee Wench** » Sat Dec 02, 2006 10:28 am

ahhh, I'll have what Calma's having.

Well, I don't know where we are, but as "Hue" used to say, wherever you go, there you are.

So....I ran out this morning to do some early shopping, leaving my husband cooking M&M pancakes for the many boys who were there for a sleepover, and I lost track of time. I looked at my watch and had to zoom home as several of the boys had to be at a soccer practice, and the other son had to be at his guitar lesson (and my husband is learning with him). Well, half way home, I realized that while I had several bags filled with bargians.....I neglected to get the one thing I originally went out for. :roll:

My mind is really starting to scare me. I am so darned forgetful. Oh well, guess I gotta go shopping again.

Now....what was I saying?

Wenchie, you have that CRS syndrome that plagues me all the time! It just seems to be getting worse! :shock:

Glad you liked the little bunns Tooks.

by **Calma** » Sat Dec 02, 2006 2:15 pm

I'm the poster child for CRS....

I got the last of my Christmas cards sent off today. :clap:

I only have a few more gifts to get then I'm finished with that as well.
However the gifts will have to wait until payday which is the 11th of this month. Plenty of time to get and deliver them.

*finishes her waffle then goes back to the TVM to see how the coil installation is going.*

*drops wrench on foot*

OUCH!

Dagnabit!

I just started writing my cards today. :roll:

Not too far along on the gifts either. :roll:

At least I didn't forget much today.

what is CRS, preciouses? I am not aware of this syndrome.

well had a not so fun weekend here. I was not well, but am much better this evening. But the bad thing was my almost 13 yr old niece told her parents she was going somewhere with her friend and would be home for tea, but actually went somewhere else, was not home for tea, turned off her mobile phone and my little bro and the other girls father were out for nearly 3 hrs looking for these 2 girls. Finally found them at a boy they know's house at 1130. Vince read Ash the riot act and Skye's dad did the same. We though when Julie (my SIL called at 1030 last night) that something really bad had happened to her. Mum and I did not sleep well last night, imagining the worst, until we spoke to my brother at 8am this morning. I was never like this as a kid. They are just growing up too fast these days. Ash is now grounded and who knows if she will get to have her birthday party for being so stupid. She really shouldn't be worrying her 5 month pregnant mother!!!

CRS = Can't Remember S***

Silly niece, nl. One thing I learned...if you told folks you'd be home by such and such a time, you'd better be there. That way you don't have to explain where you were. :wink:

*makes final adjustment*

There. The coil is re-installed. *glares at nl*

It should get us to the North Pole now.

I hope.

*crosses fingers*

by **Calma** » Sun Dec 03, 2006 9:13 am

I hope your niece learns her lesson. I also hope her mom and dad never let her forget it. It's best to nip this behaviour in the bud.

*Makes certain all is ready for the arrival at the North Pole. Warm clothes, boots, scarves, hats, gloves and so forth. Then bustles into the kitchen to begin stirring up a large pot of cocoa.*

by **notlistening** » Sun Dec 03, 2006 2:27 pm

rummages in the TVM fridge for carrots for the reindeer...

we don't have long to get to the North Pole...only 9 posts!!! :shock:

by **Tookish_Traveler** » Sun Dec 03, 2006 2:36 pm

You mean 8.

Carrots! We gotta have carrots. And apples. Not to worry.

**cranks up the TVM**

She's sounding good.

**with a hum they speed off into the.....distance? future? who knows?**

by **notlistening** » Sun Dec 03, 2006 2:44 pm

7 actually!

so will you start a new thread then, miss Tooks?? we haves to keep going, you know!!!

by **Tookish_Traveler** » Sun Dec 03, 2006 2:51 pm

I will set my alarm to get me up at 2 in the morning, just so I can start the new one.

Or not.

*tries out new moony thingy that BigMama taught her*

thinks about dancing...but is too tired. goes to sit in bean bag and waits for 2000 posts to cut the TVM's power... :shock:

by **Calma** » Sun Dec 03, 2006 8:48 pm

*Tonight I'm going to party like it's 1999!*

Let's have another number and more dancing...

*looks out the window to see if we're even close to the North Pole yet.*

Hey!
I see lights!

by **holbytla** » Sun Dec 03, 2006 9:13 pm

Oh goodie. I get one of the last posts here.

Thanks for the food Nl.
I was about to call the Labor Relations board about cruel punishment.

Calma are those lights or are you just starry eyed?

shake shake shake. shake shake shake. shake your bootie. shake your bootie.

by **notlistening** » Sun Dec 03, 2006 9:52 pm

by **Tookish_Traveler** » Mon Dec 04, 2006 5:16 am

Where did all these posts come from?

Oh. holby.

Did anybody notice the TORC Christmas logo?

*looks out the window with Calma*

by **Gamgee Wench** » Mon Dec 04, 2006 5:43 am

Holby needs wenches to serve him? Well, after many years of waitressing I learned many serving techniques.....

*The wench grabs a plate of wings and flings them, frisbee style, over to Holby*

Did I mention I didn't get a lot of tips at the end of my career?

But I was good a frisbee golf.

OK, I don't even know if this post will post....as aren't we past our limit?

Owwwwwwwwwwww.....look at the pretty lights! I love Christmas lights.

(oh, Christmas special alert, courtesy of Mr. Bumpy who always remains on top of such things.....classic "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" tomorrow night! The one with the Burgermiester Miesterburger. Gotta love those. Besides, Santa Claus is a babe for a while in this one.

In a claymation wooden puppet sort of way. :roll:

OK, I'm loving the little butt thingy Big Mama posted....very nice.

Edit for my pitiful spelling. Really pitiful.
