2. I was here, then I was gone, then slipped back in. And nobody noticed.
I've always been able to do that. Ask progmom; she saw me (or didn't see me) do it in Boston last year.

Neat trick for a guy my size, yes?

(And how have you been, m'dear? Well, I hope.)

27. There's a motivation. You going to get all decked out for that party?
If so, we'll (I'll) want to see pictures. With your facial features and raven hair, I'll bet you're impressive when dressed for an occasion.

33. You bet....
Our bed gets all full up of dog and toddler in the wee hours (who am I kidding, the dog is there all the time, LOL), but we're definitely staying warm. Oh, except for those 20 minutes I had to spend walking around campus up at UConn today. :scared: Ah well, such are the joys of living in New England!

16. Yes, it is indeed fun. And thanks for the compliment.
Santa Cruz Mountains? Not near Bonny Doon, are you? Mrs R used to live there.

18. Yup, we're very close to Bonny Doon, in fact.
we're actually in Scotts Valley, which is near Felton. I'm sure your sweetheart knows of what I speak. It's a smallish town, about 6 miles north of Santa Cruz.

Great place to raise a family....

:thumbsup:

:hi: How are you doing, Redstone?

20. Doing pretty well, thanks for asking. Because of working hard and trying
to play the guitar again, the pain level is pretty high, but for some reason I've been able to not let it bother me as much lately...maybe being busy helps me ignore it?

We've been talking about taking a cross-country trip one of these summers, and if we do it, we'll be visiting Mrs R's ex-husband in Bonny Doon; if we're in your area, can I buy you lunch?

25. It would be my honor to meet you in person, my friend. Anytime!
:hug: Just keep me posted.

Glad to hear you're doing the guitar again. Creative outlets help soothe the soul, don't you think?

I wish I could play the guitar b/c I do love to sing. I just don't have the patience to learn. I want to be an instant virtuouso without having to do any of the work. LOL.

Ooooohhh, the rain is REALLY coming in now....I just wish my hubby would get home. He had to work late tonite. He's gotta drive over Hwy 17 in this stuff. No fun.

One more Vicodin, then I'm upstairs.

14. My dear Redstone......
Lovely to see you posting, my dear! I've missed you over the last week or so....

KitchenWitch and I were talking and we both observed that it had been awhile since either one of us had seen you....

17. Mrs R was surprised that I hadn't gotten a phone call from you.
Everything's OK; I've been working very hard and TRYING to re-learn the guitar, so there's been no time.

But the first implementation of my online-software-invention is finished, so I'm giving myself a night off.

Good to "see" you again.

this time, which is waaay too late for you!

26. Actually, not at the moment......
I seem to be capable of doing only one creative thing at a time......

Right now it's writing......

Did you see the DU online magazine? I have a short poem in it......

You can find the link in the Writer's Forum......

If you're interested, that is!

There will be more pictures, I promise! After the storm......

29. Yes, I saw that magazine. You go to your room right now, Margaret!
and don't come out until you can stop using such language!

(Just joking. It was a good poem.)

31. ROFLMAO!
You can forget my stopping such language!

I'm glad you liked my poem.......

Did you see my story in the Writer's Forum? Can't remember if I told you about that or not....It's called "The Game."
