Good morning Lounge
How are you today?

I apologize for yesterday. It was another busy day here. Didn't have the chance to post here and let you know. Mea Culpa.

I am not in the best mood today. Let's just file it under pms x(

I am looking for a new cell phone? Do you have any ideas? I don't need internet and stuff on it. I am thinking about a Sony Ericson.

I hope you can get some joy out of the rest of the day.

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

At the moment I wish I could go home. But that won't be possible. So I guess I will work till 4pm and leave when the library closes.

That boy in that picture sure looks rather pissed :D

4. Good morning
I can't give you any advice on phones since you're on the side of the globe. If you were here I'd say Cricket as a service provider. Unlimited calls and text inside the country for a low rate of $35-$40. I've seen some posts here that call it a crappy service but it's the best cell phone I've ever owned and it's affordable and it doesn't charge you an arm and a leg if you talk to much.

Anyways good morning. :hi:

How are you doing today?

I am not looking for a provider, just for a cell phone.

5. Well hello.
:hi: :loveya: :hug:

I am not in the best of moods either, because I HATE early morning flights.

Getting ready to head for the airport and when I get there perhaps I can post again. Flight out of Charlotte to Tampa. Then to Key West, if I can make the tight connection.

If not, have a great day!

I like the Grandfather Mountain pic....I spent a lot of my young adulthood in that area.

You are already flying back to FL? Have a safe flight :hi:

I was at Grandfather Mountain the first time last year with AirmensMom and harleydad. I enjoyed it tremendously, even though it was rather foggy. But the weather Gods were kind and opened up the clouds when we were on top. The view was breathtaking.

:hi: :hug: :loveya: :pals:

I'm in the mood for some extra sleep. Just to keep my self rested after that nasty cold.

Not to worry about yesterday, as long as you are ok. :)

No clue about cellphones.

10. Ahhhhh . . . there you are.
I figured work commitments were keeping you away from DU. No need to apologize, although we did miss you.

Sorry to hear about your mood. I'm sure that you are sipping on some nice hot tea already.

Can't advise you on the purchase of a cell phone. I always get mine free when I "re-sign up", although I'm totally satisfied with my provider (AT&T) I think I'm going to shop around to see if I can get a provider that charges a bit less.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

Yeah, work sneaked up on me LOL

I get a new cell phone too when I "re-sign up". And I don't know which to choose. Maybe I will decide in the end to keep the one I have at the moment.

13. Yeah, I actually like
my phone, so even if I sign up again, I'm not sure if I'd take another phone. I'm not one to chit-chat a lot on the phone, so I use it so rarely.

16. Good Morning!
:hi:

I'm having a mixed day today.

I walk short distances in the house, but one of our dogs decided to walk between my feet this morning and I tripped and fell, so now I'm all kinds of pain. No more walking for me for the rest of the day. I'm now using the wheelchair even indoors. :9

But I found out that I'm eligible for a federal subsidy of my COBRA insurance, so it's going to cost me 65% less that what it has been costing me, and I'm getting a rebate. Yay! Getting money back is very good.

And, today I start a new med to replace the one I became allergic too that has been causing me so many problems the past 2 months. So hopefully this will work out well.

I'll take the good with the bad. :)

I hope your day improves. :hug:

18. Good Afternoon, MissH
I missed you yesterday :hug:


I've got a ton of stuff to do...including finishing the calendar...so yesterday I went shopping with my mum :rofl:


I'd give you advice about a new phone, but I'm the kind of person who just takes whatever the company is offering free to upgrade service. I did pay a little more for my current phone, which is by samsung, and I mostly really like it - my one problem with it is that although they say it's a music phone, it won't let you use a song as a ringtone, which kind of bummed me out. :shrug:

19. Good morning blueraven
:hi: :hug: :loveya:

I just sent you a couple of emails. Hope you don't mind.

So did you buy anything yesterday? I went shopping too and bought me a white/red blouse. Really cute.

At the moment I have a Nokia. I like it. But the battery starts to get weak. It kinda gets empty soon even if I don't use it. What I like about the Sony Ericson I might get is that it has a good camera. I don't need a cell to go online or do all that crap. I want to send text messages, talk on the phone and take a pic every now and then.

20. got your emails, thanks
I bought a new pair of jeans and a red sweater. They look cute together :-)

My mum got a new pair of shoes. We basically wandered around the mall and then did dinner. It was fun, but it didn't help me get any of my work done. :silly:

I use cell phones the same way - to talk, take the occasional pic and texting. I refuse to pay for an internet plan, so that's it.

40. I went to bed late too
my couch made me take a nap in the evening :)

I have to work at the groceries store tomorrow evening and Saturday. Maybe I go dancing Saturday after work with a friend. Haven't decided 100% yet.

Other than that no plans. And you?

43. couches are really good for that
:)

I have to get the calendar closer to done tonight and watch the movie Platoon for class. Tomorrow I am going to work on a paper that's due next week and clean (but luckily my apartment doesn't need too much work) because friends are coming in late in the evening, around 11:00pm or so. We are going to the Renaissance Fair on Saturday. They'll head home Sunday morning and then I'll do more reading for class. Whew. Hopefully after this weekend, things will slow down a little.

I'm not usually this busy, so we'll see how long I can keep it up. I may crash on Sunday and sleep a lot, so I'm trying to get as much done as possible before that. :)

Your dancing sounds like a lot of fun though. Maybe I'll convince my friends we should do that too. Either that or go to the movies :rofl:

:rofl:

This is the only music both me and my friend can agree on. She is more into the gothic music and I am more into HipHop and R&B.

49. that's funny
we listen to 80s at work almost every day, because it is almost the exact same situation with my co-worker and me. :rofl:

Today, though, we are listening to stuff from the 60s. :D That's my favorite stuff.

Edited on Thu Oct-08-09 09:40 AM by MissHoneychurch
I love to listen to that music too ;)

Btw, I finished reading "Unseen Academicals" Great read, as always.

Excerpt (in my words more than less): Wizards are not allowed to have sex before the big game (not that they have it anyway). One asks "Does that mean we are not allowed to talk about it?" Answer: "No, that would be oral sex" :rofl:

I love how he puts understanding and accepting other cultures in most of his books. He lets us look into a mirror with his disk world. There is so much meaning underneath the funny read.

21. G'day, MissH!
:hi: :hug:

I know the feeling about busy days. Spent about an hour in the lab on a ladder tracking computer cables. :P

Lost the Tuesday soccer game to the second-place team, there's a 3-way tie for first. Will play again tonight with my over-30 team.

Hope you liked my explanation of "on-line datesite guy". :D

25. Not seen "Blade Runner"?
It's become a cult classic. You should consider putting it on your "movies-to-watch" list.

Tonight's opponent is just above us in the table. The game could go either way; it won't be a guaranteed loss like most Tuesdays.

Before I forget, going to Renfest opening weekend this weekend! :woohoo:

I was hoping people would tell me about the cells they have and if they like them. Oh well, I have no hurry. I might go with the Sony Ericson. I might keep mine. I will see.

How are you doing?

We have a very mixed weather here today. In the morning it was gray and raining, now the sun is shining and it is warm. A nice sunny crisp morning in DC sounds just great. I could see myself walking down the Mall towards the Lincoln Memorial.
