The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and Tolkien - The One Ring

Well, it was my sister's birthday, I suppose that could be significant....

Well, so far it seems I get the weekend off.
Wooo... Whatever am I going to do with two whole days off...
In a row... :shock:

That sounds good.
That sounds real good.
Don't know what the next week will bring, but I'll take the weekend and enjoy the rest.

How about we call out for pizza?

by **Tygarya** » Thu Feb 07, 2008 7:24 pm

Great news Calma, you make sure you enjoy that weekend and do nothing :wink:

Pizza!!!

There's some in our work kitchen as someone is leaving today. I don't know them as I'm a noob. I think I saw a satay with snow peas in there...

Enjoy the sleeping in this weekend, Calma. I always have the best intentions of doing just that, but it never seems to work out that way...

Looks like another icky weekend weather-wise. Rain, ice, snow ...plummeting temps. :roll:

Is it Spring yet?

by **rowanberry** » Fri Feb 08, 2008 8:54 am

Yay for a whole weekend off for Calma! :clap:

And, your plans for the weekend sound just right.

It's great when you don't have to care about the clock for a couple of days.

No great weather to be expected here either, but at least, it shouldn't rain. :roll:

Might even get to stick my nose outside.

Super Duper quick wave and drive by......................... :hihi:

Zooming away now.....................................

*yawn*

Tis quiet here today. We actually have real snow falling outside. Let's see if this keeps up.

In other news.....um..... it's Saturday. :roll:

Ok, so there's not a lot of excitement this time of year.

*goes off to mangle a photo of Scotty for MoST*

Just wanted to :hihi:

at Calma! My original TORC mummy

Gosh being here is nostalgic...

by **Calma** » Sat Feb 09, 2008 8:25 am

*runs in and tackles Alasséa*

:hug:

Always good to see you!
So glad you're back and I hope it's for a long time.

by **rowanberry** » Sat Feb 09, 2008 9:29 am

*grabs Alasséa and throws her into the hold with all the other captives* Gotcha!

You know, you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave...

by **Tookish_Traveler** » Sat Feb 09, 2008 12:27 pm

Hi Alasséa!!

Come back to visit anytime. We have excitement and adventures and..um, lots of virtual food and drink. :roll:

It's calorie free.

Plummeting temps, yeah . . . don't we know it. It's minus 28C out there, with a brisk windchill of minus 39C. :shock:

And they're forecasting flurries for tonight and tomorrow. Which means shovelling in sub-Arctic conditions . . . bleh.

I'm staying inside in my fleece PJ's, drinking tea and watching endless eps of CSI Las Vegas.

:hihi:

to all the TVM'ers! Keep warm everyone!

:D:D

No spring here yet, damn those groundhogs anyway . . .

by **Calma** » Sat Feb 09, 2008 7:04 pm

The other day my babyman brought home some lumpia and, of course, I scarfed it right down. So we made plans to go to the local Filipino restaurant for some pancit and lumpia today. We got down there and found that it has closed. :shock:

Drat!!!

Ok, go to plan B...
That would be good, 'cept we didn't have a plan B.
Since our mouths were set on Asian cuisine, Burger King wasn't high on our list nor was Subway.
Well, we rode about town discussing our options before I remembered a little hole-in-the-wall place that served Chinese and Japanese foods.

Oh yeah...
We loved plan B!!!
:yippie:

Peking Pork to die for.
Tempura veggies, Teriyaki chicken, chow mein, rice and fortune cookies...

Oh, just to die for...
My mouth is happy...

Yep, definitely a place we'll be going back to.

I just found out that Lush is going to open a shop in my city, and even better, at a mall that I visit rather often. I don't have to carry my favourite moisture cream all the way from my trips to Britain any longer! :thumbsup:

by **Tookish_Traveler** » Sun Feb 10, 2008 1:22 pm

Hmmm....Chinese food and lush. Somehow they don't seem to go together...

:D:D

Oy. I will be sore tomorrow. I did sawing and wood hauling today. Better go take some ibubrofen now whilst I think of it.

And I have to think of witty stuff for MoST. :pull:

by **Tygarya** » Sun Feb 10, 2008 2:13 pm

a distraction for Tyg while Q works on his new outfit

NL - I am dutifully distracted

Hi everyone :hihi:

*back to Vin* :wink:

oh good, evil plan is working!!!! :evilaugh:

by **Tygarya** » Sun Feb 10, 2008 3:29 pm

except i think Dubs just made a diversion :wink:

by **rowanberry** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 6:29 am

Well, there can never be too many sexy men at the MoST (or MoME). :angel:

Yippee, soon I can go home for today...

by **Tookish_Traveler** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 9:04 am

Not fair. I have 5 hours to go... *sigh*

It is freezing here today. -11C. :shock:

It would be nice if we had even a little bit of snow to go with that frigid air.

Rant over.

Good morning/afternoon/evening to all.

by **rowanberry** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 10:57 am

Seems that the Americans, and especially Canadians, get all the cold and snow this winter. :roll:

Here, it more or less rained again.

Mondays should at least be sunny, then it would be a bit easier to get going after the weekend.

Got to start thinking of my entrance to the ball at MoST...

by **rwhen** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 1:55 pm

I entranced....entered.....walked in...whatever!! :lol:

Caught up!

Actually in the Pacific Northwest it got warmer this weekend, been very cold though.

Calma, did you get some rest this weekend along with the asian fare? Hope so...I sorta pulled a Scribbles stayed in my PJ's :roll:

and didn't leave all weekend. I needed to recover from an exhausting week last week.

:hihi:

to all TVMers....and Wenchy slow down so we can hug ya.

Later all...

by **Tygarya** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 2:19 pm

It's raining here!!
Which is actually good news cause the farmers are in drought, don't know if the rain is enough to make much of a difference but as it is supposed to rain for the next few days, hopefully it will give some relief

Hello all!

*off to check MoST thread*

by **notlistening** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 4:13 pm

supposed to be 25C here today. Looks clouldy to me...

went to Aqua aerobics last night. sore armses today!!

by **Tygarya** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 4:29 pm

oh it's warm here...very warm...the rain is making it muggy and sticky...which i don't like at all, it's not suppose to be humid in Christchurch!!

by **notlistening** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 5:18 pm

someone should take care of that whole humidity problem... :pull:

by **Tygarya** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 5:32 pm

yes it does murder to my hair

by **SilverScribe** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 10:35 pm

It was only -4C today!! Well, the windchill made it -11C, but lemme tell ya, after 2 weeks of -20C and -30C, minus 11 feels like spring . . . and apparently tomorrow is going to be only -2C with no wind! Although, they're saying snow . . .

:angry:

More shovelling . . . grrrrr . . .

stumbles off to read MoST . . .

:D:D

by **notlistening** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 10:38 pm

I was wondering where you were...buried under tonnes of snow I guess. Glad you tunneled out!!!!

by **Tookish_Traveler** » Tue Feb 12, 2008 7:41 am

Another crappy weather day. :angry:

I'm going to either move someplace cold or someplace warm. All this back and forth, up and down stuff is driving me bonkers. Not that I need any help with that.

Let's talk about Wenchie so she comes and reads it in this thread. Let's talk about ....about..... about .... her bathroom.
