Title: Thursday 02-07
Post by: franksolich on February 07, 2008, 08:14:43 AM
I'm in a bad mood today; never mind why, excepting that it's internal.

I will however put on a brave face, and act as if all's okay.

Topic of the Day: Have you successfully recruited at least one new member for this site?

Everyone I know is already here.  I am not an internet social butterfly.  My answer is no.

TOTD:  Try oat bran and a hot beverage.  That usually chases the blues away.

Watched a three-car spinout/wreck happen about 100 yards in front of me on the way to work this morning.  People who think they can drive the same on ice and snow as they can dry roads piss me off.

TOTD:  Yes.  Several.

I'm kind of laid up from foot surgery.  Can't sit at the computer too long, or do much of anything really, due to needing to keep 'em elevated, so enforced inactivity is aggravating me.

TOTD:  Well, I could go over to a Ron Paul forum and get some if you want... :-)

I have to go get a front-end alignment, joint lube and tire rotation for the truck today.

TOTD: No, I haven't.

I would consider that successful.

I'm sure that those who posted only a few times, and then disappeared, will be back; it's the nature of the evolution of discussion web-sites.

I PMmed a couple of the CUers, that's the extent of my recruiting. I'm not quite the prolific internet poster.

Well, my mom will be in town for a couple of days starting today.  I'll probably be sleeping in her hotel room, so I can have some real sleep. LOL   I don't know where we'll be going for dinner, but Bennigan's just down the road looks appealing. 

TOTD: I've PM'ed a few folks, and got some good results, but some other PM's got me insults.   :whatever:   All in all, I did okay.  I won't be going back, though, after being insulted in the worst possible way by someone I thought would never do that.

Morning! I woke with my feisty little girl holloring, not crying, just hollering. If she could talk, she would say, "Get your fat ass out of bed Mom and get me!" LOL! 

TOTD: Yes, I invited NonCon and Lisa although I think other people invited her as well so I don't think I can claim all the credit for her. I invited a few other people too, some came and some didn't. Meh.

Nope.   I would rather not puff up their pathetic ego any more than it already is.  They seem quite proud of the elementary school insults they enjoy hurling at us from the safety of CU.

I have to agree with that. FWIW- I have noticed, today in fact, that CC just recently got a little bigger than CU was when I first joined them.

Good people, making good, thoughtful post... we will grow.

All we really need is someone to enforce some moral clarity around here right?  :evillaugh: :rotf:

Things are good. I'm making sure to work out in a more regular and deliberate manner and it helps my mood immensely. I'm full scale in pms and I feel terrific. :-)

TOTD: Yes...a few actually

I suppose that should be a clue but I'm still checking in over there, and Gator is the only one I've seen mention CC at all, which he did in a fairly mature way (for gator).

I went back to work today.  I had a ton to do and was pretty busy all day.  I even managed to get some "where's my money" phone calls in this afternoon.

TOTD:  No, I'm a slacker.
