[StellaBlue]

Eat your hearts out.

[Droopy]

1. I'd freeze my ass off at the pool today

it's 60 degrees here.

[StellaBlue]

2. Where are you?

I'm in Austin, Texas. People were in the pool on Easter Sunday. When it hit 100 degrees.

[Droopy]

4. Near Dayton Ohio

The warmest it's been here so far is in the low 70s. It's been overcast, cool, and rainy for the past 4 days.

[Ksec]

3. I have a tan

I worship the sun. I can think of nothing more enjoyable than soaking up rays on a nice beach .

[Guava Jelly]

6. TTIWWP

[Mutley]

11. Hey, you stole that smiley from me.

:D

[Oeditpus Rex]

13. Did not

I don't steal smilies. I share them. :evilgrin:

[Mutley]

15. Heh. I stole it from someone first

so I guess it's okay. O8)

[Oeditpus Rex]

20. I actually got that one legitimately

From a smilie site.

I've... uh, "appropriated" others, though. :blush:

[Mutley]

24. Oh.

I've appropriated most of mine. :D

[Oeditpus Rex]

31. Appropriator!

:spank:

[Mutley]

33. Yeah, what are ya gonna do?

It's fuck-em-all kind of place we live in. :P

[Oeditpus Rex]

39. Yeah?

Is there a queue or anything somewhere? A registration form? :bounce:

[Mutley]

41. Unfortunately no. No queue.

x(

Are you volunteering? :P

[Oeditpus Rex]

42. Not until I see

who "'em all" are. :scared:

[Mutley]

43. I did say there is no queue.

So, "em all" is purely allegorical.

[Oeditpus Rex]

44. Oh, sorry

I figured the queue was for the applicants. :blush:

[Mutley]

45. No, no applicants.

:cry:

:P

[Oeditpus Rex]

46. Volunteers, then?

Martyrs...?



(Where's the damned "begging" smilie?)

[Mutley]

47. Well, volunteer then!

:P

[Oeditpus Rex]

48. As if I haven't?

Time and time again?

And what's it gotten me? Two to five and a record. x(

[Mutley]

49. I'm a little slow on the uptake, alright?

:P

[Mutley]

50. Well

then

[Neoma]

8. I look so good in a tan.

Wish i had a new one.

[Mutley]

12. I don't tan. I turn bright red.

Ouch! :P

[GOPisEvil]

14. Isn't it a BEAUTIFUL DAY here in Austin?!

:bounce:

[StellaBlue]

16. Woo-hoo!!!

I am SO glad to finally be here.

Not sure if I am getting back in the pool or not. I'm not red. But I should really be applying for jobs and eating fruit.

[GOPisEvil]

19. Applying for jobs? On a Saturday?!

Mwahahahahahaha!!! Fuck that - Saturdays are for enjoying. You can apply for jobs Monday through Friday. :D

[StellaBlue]

22. Yeah, but I REALLY need a job n/t

[GOPisEvil]

26. Yeah, but the people make the decisions are off (most of them).

When you apply, ask to speak to the person doing the hiring and introduce yourself. You'll have a job in no time.

[StellaBlue]

29. I've had lots of shots and politics has kicked my ass every time.

I am a bit... depressed.

But today it's sunny and I have a pool!

:D

[GOPisEvil]

32. Well, when I got serious about my job search, it took me about a month.

:shrug: I'm not getting rich, but I work indoors, have decent benefits and 38.75 hour work week.

I have no pool to play in though. :P

[Maine-ah]

17. well...well....

at least I'm in a blue state.

[GOPisEvil]

18. Our county is true blue, so nyah!

:P:P:P

[Maine-ah]

25. ah, another texan, trying to make excuses.....

at least W doesn't live here.

[GOPisEvil]

27. How hard is it to be a liberal in Maine?

Come down here and try it. It's easy to act morally superior when you live somewhere SAFE.

And, I'm not a Texan, I wasn't born here. I just live here and I really like it. Even Republican assholes can't ruin this place.

And where is the Bush family compound again? Right.

Spelling edit.

[StellaBlue]

30. Ditto

W is more "from" Maine than he is from Texas.

[Maine-ah]

34. nope, he is not from maine. never has been. they just vacation

here.

[Maine-ah]

35. "morally superior"

wow, where am I GD? Dude, take a joke.

[GOPisEvil]

36. Well, I apologize for over-reacting, but Texas-bashing is a sport here.

To say I'm tired of it is an understatement.

[StellaBlue]

37. The Texas-baiting just gets old. Real old.

And we'd like to have DU as a friendly place with no Texas-bashing.

It's sort of like how Europeans can't understand that Americans are not the same as the American government. Yankees can't understand that W is NOT Texas. Or Texans.

It's been said a million times on here, but there are millions of us down here, fighting HARD.

[Maine-ah]

40. what ever

I give up. I was just joking to your original post because you were rubbing it in that you were nice and warm? What was so difficult about that to understand?! Sheesh.

I'm not here to stir up trouble, so I'm just gonna go find a different playground for a little while.

enjoy your sun.

[StellaBlue]

38. Okay, so, now I'm wondering...

Should I get BACK in the pool? I am throwing a party later with a friend, and going to a show on the Eastside at like 10pm. My friend gets off work at 7:30. I guess I should go ahead and shower and dress and run my Saturday errands, right?

I'm all dry now, too.
