Q for DU morning posters
It's 8:30 est, 7:30 cst, etc. What are you all doing? I mean, do you have breakfast with/at the computer, or are you riding to work, or already there?
Just curious :)
(I'm up all night or I wouldn't be here. When I get up I'm not fit for communicating.)

3. I'm sipping coffee right now at work.
And I'm thankful that the coughing I've had from my cold seems to have stopped. Maybe the worst is over???

35. No. Just this nasty cold.
I was coughing so bad that my voice was hoarse. And my throat was sore.

Thanks for the well wishes about my cold.

:-)

38. sorry bout the delay, got side tracked
I have a set of Advent wireless. They have a transmitter plugged into an aux output of my home A/V, so what ever I have switched on is what I can listen to. The range is surprising far, I can be out in the yard, and we have 1 acre, watering the trees and listening to C-Span, Comedy Central, FM, CD's and so on. I wonder about the neighbors when I'm out watering trees and arguing some freeper on WJ.

They are the greatest thing to come along.

22. Morning routine.
Alarm, go downstairs, start coffee, boot up computer, feed dogs, connect to internet, check in on DU, pour coffees, take coffee upstairs, wake up Mrs. Robb, get asked for a few more minutes, go downstairs, more DU and other interneting, go upstairs, re-wake Mrs. Robb. :)

And it never deviates from this.

27. PC in kitchen so eat at counter. I am retired but
may work this Summer. I miss it plus things cost a lot and I could use the money. I am thinking about ebay sales or some such things. I am sick of driving and my work made me do a lot of that.

30. Well, ya see, I'm a 12 or 13 hour man here at the DU boards...
I jump on at 6:30 or 7 and stay on til 8 or so. The comp is in my shop so when it's slow, I learn an awful lot from these folks. And then there is all the funny, non-learning stuff too. I do visit other sites during the day, but DU is always in the mix. Don't like to leave for very long. Afraid I might miss something good.

31. Working at home
Which I do every Friday, and sometimes another day during the week.

Working at home is the greatest idea ever invented.
