How are we today?

[Ivorwen]

In this thread, you can post about how you feel and how your day went, and what went on in your day, and coment on other peoples days.

-I'm having an okay day, then again it is Monday, and it is school....:b ...Kind of sleepy too. |I

[Barahir]

I guess I'm having an okay day, as far as mondays go. That giant horse picture of yours, though, is messing up my display of the whole Fluffer's Lodge. Is there any way you could resize it?

[Jackolen]

I didn't have school today. I guess I'm lucky.

What grade are you in?

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

I am tired. Have physical therapy tommorrow, jippy.
My phone bill is high from calling the world...where is Pippin? :heart I miss him!:cry2

[Jackolen]

Aww... poor Eowyn!
Pippin's at my house doing some homework.

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

Send him over by my house, I need him for my jobs, I'll pay him in cash. I need a little helper here alone in this big house alone, and it is quite cold today, windy as well.
There is much ale and pipeweed and it comes in pints too! :heart

[Jackolen]

I wouldn't know if you can, Barahir.

Eowny. I'll be sure to tell him.
Maybe we could clone him so both of us can keep him!

[Tarcristiel]

I had a good day today, getting some much needed stitching time in a present for my oldest son's wedding next month. Yikes!

I'm currently listening to the soundtrack of RoTK while I play here.

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

I am taking Pippin home today, he wants to stay in my house with a nice fireplace and a basement of fine ale and pipeweed. He came over quite late, has having nightmares, but he fell asleep again now. Must have had a bad apple :(
My arm is hurting a bit but I will have to order Pippin some carry-in second breakfast soon (and all the other food he wants, he can just call and order it) because my arm hurts a bit and I have physical therapy soon. He seems to like apples a lot, or just fruits. Very earthy hobbit is he. Well, he has the whole house while I am gone, so he should be occupied. Maybe I will have to show him how to use swords later in the day, with my good arm. It was nice of him to want to stay with me here, he did startle me in my sleep though. :heart I hope he likes my horses when he meets them.

EDIT: This hobbit is a fool! I had to teach him to use the phone today for an hour to say (translated from Icelandic) 'Hállo, this is Pippin Took, please send to Elfsheen....'(whatever he wants to eat, whenever he wants to). He has no idea about computers, DVD players or anything...so I gave him some toy to play with and my pens and some books.
I had to make him bathe before he could touch my phone, looked like he was rolling in a cabbage patch, poor Hobbit. He seems to be fond of the pastries the old lady down the road sends me, sugar is liked by him. He seems to like it here, though it is frustrating....I wonder, is this what it is like to have children?

[Tarcristiel]

Only if he asks you 2700 times a day "why is the sky blue?", "where do horses go when they die?", "can you eat a worm?", "why is there air?", etc. :lol

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

Well, he is that way in a sense. I am scared to show him the horses, they are a bit big, it is cold outside and he refuses to try to keep his hairy feet warm, he says the hair is enough. He keeps asking about this toy that says "Pippin" on the box, I don't want to tell him the story, I will have to read to him tonight so he forgets about it, he likes stories. He ate every mushroom in the store! Crazy hobbit! They are not even in season, so I will have to special order him some. Maybe keep some in the pantry. He drank a lot of ale today and is singing drunk in my bedroom...crazy hobbit...

He is always asking where he is going when he is obviously not going anywhere he wasn't already, maybe I do have a child here....:) :) :)

[Theodred]

Ivy, could you possibly do something about your image there? It's kinda making the forum display all messed up! :D

Currently, Theodred is feeling tired.|I

[Barahir]

That's what I said... (the image, not the tired). Oh well. We'll just have to see if today is a good day or not!

[Theodred]

Currently, Theodred is feeling lonely. :cry

[Damaring]

Awwww! *HUGGLES*

We luuuuuuurves you Theo!

< sharing the lurve.

[Theodred]

Yes, the lurve is very comforting. :)

[Arathorn III]

I'm annoyed that I can't stay up later. |I

[Tarcristiel]

I am tired; hubby got measured for his tux. And then we hit the stores for a dress for me. No luck today. We have a birthday party tomorrow for my niece's 3-yr old son, so I will dress-hunting again on Monday.

I wish I could bag a dress as easily as Aragorn seems to bag orcs. :lol

However, after coming home from shopping, I gently asked Wayne if we could go see RoTK again. After all, it's been almost a month since I last saw it. At first, he said he was too tired, but he ate some salad, and now we're off to the cinema! Hooray!

[Jackolen]

I think I need a life...

[Damaring]

*HUGGLES* for Jackolen

[Barahir]

I don't even want a life... I'm content being on the computer all day :D ... see? No life!

[Damaring]

Being on the computer all day doesn't mean you have no life. It just means you have an electronically involved one.

[Barahir]

Well it's not like it's a bad thing :p

[Damaring]

Of course not? How else would you keep us entertained with so many posts and "Do you find ___ attractive?" polls?

[Barahir]

I guess you'll find out when I go to Canada for nearly a month, this July!

[Damaring]

Canada has internet. You can post from Canada. (j/k)

[Barahir]

Riiiight...

[Theodred]

Currently, Theodred is feeling: hyper from too much caffeine :eekc

[Barahir]

Currently, Barahir is about to doze off... zzzz

Tschuess! (that's German, y'know)

[Theodred]

All I know of German is Gesudheit, Du Hast, Volkswagon, Oktoberfest, and sch*****! :lolc

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

That would be actually...Tschüss ;)

Today I woke up looking at Pippin :heart
What a surprise! :heart

I will be near Canada this summer! :)

[Barahir]

It would be Tschüss if I wasn't talking in German... Deutsch.

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

I know, lived there quite a bit ;)

[Barahir]

Yup. Nice there, isn't it?

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

It is OK, I liked it better in Austria, Switzerland though.

Today: Frozen Ice, strong wind, almost instant hypothermia, lets go skiing! :) :) :)

[Jackolen]

I wish I lived (or even been) somewhere eles that California. They do have almost everything here though...

[Tarcristiel]

We lived for 10 years in San Diego and, except for the earthquakes, and being across the country from my family, we really liked it. Of course, you can NOT get a decent crabcake more than 10 miles from the Chesapeake Bay!

[Theodred]

Currently, Theodred is feeling: tired |I

[Jackolen]

Awww...poor Theodred! You should take a nap.

I had no school today! Wahoo!!! I have nothing to do though but we watch one of Viggo's movies.

[Tarcristiel]

I am tired from a day of shopping for a dress to wear to my son's wedding. Found a possibility, but want to look a little more.

[Theodred]

Well, I posted that 1 in the morning, so I should have been tired. Currently, Theodred is feeling: awake :)c

[Jackolen]

Wahoo! Theodred is awake! I can't post that late. I'm on my mom's computer in her room. It's 9:30 pm here so that's late for me on a computer.

Oh darn! I have school tomorrow! Awwww!!!! It's only Wedensday (however you spell that!)

[Theodred]

Wednesday, Jackolen. ;)

Currently, Theodred is feeling: happy! :Dc

[Barahir]

Currently, Barahir is feeling: the cold bite of hunger! :(

[Theodred]

Currently, Theodred does not want to be awake: |I

[Jackolen]

Awww.... you poor guys!

Jackolen is currently chewing buble gum!

[Theodred]

Theodred currently: wants his houseguests to go away! :sad

[Barahir]

Currently, Barahir: wonders what's going on at Theodred's...

[Arathorn III]

Currently Arathorn is wondering how long he can stay awake...

[Barahir]

Currently, Barahir is finishing a lovely second breakfast. :D

[Barahir]

Currently Barahir is going to bed... |I

[Arathorn III]

Currently Arathorn has just finished a hockey practice, and is wondering what to do with the rest of the week.

[Tarcristiel]

Currently, kazbels is wishing baseball season would start now!

[Barahir]

Barahir wishes, currently, the same, and feels hungery, therefor, for peanuts.

[Tarcristiel]

And hotdogs with mustard!

[Barahir]

Currently: Happpy that it's friday.
Also: Wondering where Theo is.
Also: Yay-ified - I got my class ring today! :D
Also: Sore - still feeling it from mixing concrete...

[SwordSkill]

Feeling woozy.

[Barahir]

Woozy? Why that?

[SwordSkill]

because summer's starting already...sticky skin, matted hair, ever-present beads of sweat...the works. :) never pleasant. wish it could be December all year round.

[Barahir]

Ah, yes. Decembeer all year round. That would be nice! :)

[Arathorn III]

Arathorn is currently feeling: Pumped up.

I have the first playoff game tonight. :Dc

[Barahir]

Tired - I just got back from the the Kansas City Symphony's performance at the Lyric Opera House with (brace yourself, Theo) my girlfriend.


Sorry, but I just have to pick on you. :lolc

[Theodred]

:Dc

Feeling tired and sad because the weekend is almost over. :(

[Arathorn III]

Feeling very upset and angry, since my practice was cancelled. Now the whole week sucks. :sad

[Barahir]

Anxious/worried; district solo and small ensemble is this saturday and I need to work on my solo, Bach's Suite I: Preludium...

Which practice?

[Poguemahone]

Hockey, yeh I know how you feel Bere. I still have school with my girlfriend though, so it can't be all that bad.

[Damaring]

I'm excited for several reasons. A friend was in town who I haven't seen since June and we went out for dinner last night. It was payday today. I work a short week this week. And.... on Friday I get to go to a David Bowie concert.

[Tarcristiel]

Sounds like a good week.

I'm hungry.

[fingolfin jones]

I used to have this little i-mood dealy that I used at another forum. The Admin. would get the code from me after I registered and placed it below my user name. I could go to the i-mood site and change my mood emoticon. I think that I tried to turn Bere onto that but since he hates me...:(

[Barahir]

Hmmm...

Still practicing for my solo...

[fingolfin jones]

Solo what?;)

[Barahir]

Cello solo: Bach's Suite I, Prelude.

Currenty, Barahir is: :angry :angry :angry

[Poguemahone]

Ouch

[Barahir]

Hungry... currently hungry. Hungry! Must eat... perhaps lasagna.

[Tarcristiel]

Contented. :)

[SwordSkill]

Tired...came from an anime convention.

[Damaring]

tired... been cleaning today

[Tarcristiel]

Happy! We had our annual Palm Sunday family get-together at my youngest sister's home. The original parts of the house date back to when Maryland was still a colony. They train Thoroughbreds for the track. Two of their mares foaled within the last week, and moms and babies were out in the field.

Then my beloved Baltimore Orioles won the season opener! Hooray! :bounce

And Matt and his new bride are home safely from their adventures and fun times in Orlando. They brought us a cute little figurine of Mickey Mouse.

All in all, a great day! :)

[Barahir]

Tired... I must finish five more pages of my analysis on ancient Roman military advancement... ug.

[Damaring]

I'm feeling accomplished, I made homemade egg rolls!

[Tarcristiel]

Sounds yummy, Damaring! :D

Hope you finished your paper, Barahir. :)

I'm a little tired; had a killer headache all day yesterday, and the remnant is still dogging my footsteps today.

[Barahir]

Indeed I did finish my paper. I just turned it in today. :)

Currently: Dandy

[Damaring]

Today I'm excited about the long weekend. My parents are coming to visit.

[Barahir]

Hope you have fun. :)

[Damaring]

Thanks! I hope so too!

[Theodred]

Tired.

Btw, looks like my Red Sox have taken a few in the series now. ;)

[Tarcristiel]

I'd like to take :chainsaw to Johnny Damon! ;) Was he an extra in RoTK or what?!

I'm hungry; making tacos for dinner tonight and I thought I'd wait until YS gets home from work.

[Poguemahone]

I feel horrible. I found out that I got a 59% in math class, my girlfriend dumped me, bashed my already horrible knee in my hockey game and my hockey team lost in the semi-finals.:sad

[Damaring]

*HUGGLES* Balin!

[Poguemahone]

Thanks

[Damaring]

anytime

[Tarcristiel]

{{huggles}} for Balin! :)

[Barahir]

Wow... sorry for you, Balin. :(

Currently: Very tired; I've been awake for *counting to self* 26 hours... My friend just went home. We still didn't finish what we had hoped to accomplish. We're making a computer game for a school project, and it's due on Tuesday (we worked on it almost non-stop all day yesterday, which is why I wasn't on). Oi. Must... contact him on... MSN... ugh.

[Poguemahone]

ouch, that sounds hard.

[Barahir]

almost... not... done... gaah!

So frustrating! :chainsaw :angry :angry :mad :rolleyesc :\ :(c :cry2 :cry :| |I |I |I |I |I :| >: :cry |I |I :eek2 :(c :rolleyesc :\ :( :( :( :( :cry2 :| |I |I |I :eekc :/ :| :(c :(c :angry :angry :angry >: :cry :rolleyesc |I

"the cycle"

[Barahir]

I feel tired.

Like usual.

[Theodred]

As do I. *yawn*

[Barahir]

Barahir sat down and scratched his head, and yawned like a cavern. He was worried.

[Tarcristiel]

I've been better, and I've been worse. PTL for modern meds. :)

[Damaring]

A little tired but excited at the same time. Going out with friends tonight to watch the hockey game.

[Tarcristiel]

We are feeling crummy today. :(

As you may have noticed, I don't do pain well at all. :rolleyes

[Poguemahone]

Happy, the sens won the other night, and I am confident that they will win again tonight.

[Tarcristiel]

Happy; the Orioles won their 5th game in a row! :bounce

[Damaring]

Income tax returns make Damaring a happy girl. *HAPPY HOBBIT DANCE*

[Poguemahone]

Always time for a happy hobbit dance. I don't want to try though, too afraid to try and break a bone.

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

Woke up next to Faramir since I got here, life is getting a bit smoother. ;)
Thinking of giving up a few things in life to make it better.
Hate USA pollution. :(

[Poguemahone]

Tired. Not any perticular reason why though. Just tired

[Damaring]

Excited. It's Friday!

[Poguemahone]

Happy, weekend is finally here

[Nessa]

Amen, Balin! Today has actually been rather boring, but that's okay. Other than stressing over a few things, I am pretty good.

[Barahir]

Hungry. I could really use something to eat, right about now...

[Poguemahone]

Then you should eat

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

Party time *grabs Damaring for a Hobbit-Rohan dance in celebration kazbels because is OK*

Bring the pints! :)

[Poguemahone]

wish I was old enough to drink. I might as well anyways.

*grabs a pint and drinks it*

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

No drinking age here! We are in Middle-Earth, remember? ;)

I just got back from a cold walk in the forest of a tribe of Buried Indians conveniently located in front of my current house! :)

[Poguemahone]

You live infront of a forest, you are so lucky

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

I am surrounded by forest now!

Today I still have a head flu, but it is better. Went to the city and spent $117 on clothes because I was bored. I bought a nice Hyacinth as well.

Now I feel like typing in Rohan message board.

[Poguemahone]

I feel horrible. I was told earlier this morning that my Great-Grandma might not live to see the end of this weekend. She is 95

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

I feel like an Elf today, it is the clothes.

[Damaring]

Tired.

"I need a holiday."

[Tarcristiel]

Balin, how is your Great-Grandma?

Éowyn, every woman needs to treat herself every once in a while. Clothes or books are excellent choices!

Damaring, I hope you get some rest; you've been through some tough times lately.

Barahir, I hope you got something to eat.

I am feeling pretty good, though menial tasks like balancing the checkbooks beckon me. Maybe tomorrow!

[Barahir]

*sigh* I'm very tired. I've had almost no sleep for the past three days or so, having been completely occupied with practicing for a musical in which I must play electric cello. The last practice we had went from about 3:00 PM to 11:00 PM. Today we practiced from 7:45 AM to about 9:45... then we performed - it didn't sound good. On the up side, I was dismissed from every one of my classes today. I just have to wait for another half an hour, though, before we have another practice, so that we don't sound like crap for the next three performances which will be on the 6th, 7th, and 8th of May... they'll start at 7:00 PM, or so, but they won't be over until about 10:00... Oh well. Electric cellos with distortion sound just like electric guitars. Very neat... except for the fact that everyone's watching the cellos, since they're 'so cool!' and so if I make a mistake it's quite noticeable in any of my some four solos. If I ever decide that I'm going to play pit for a musical again, I hope somebody shoots me.

[Poguemahone]

My G-G is in better shape and is still alive.

[Tarcristiel]

Good news, Balin. :)

Barahir, I hope you get some rest, 'cause that sure will help you over the next few days. Those long practices can really wear you down. And I don't know about you, but sometimes I think a long practice ends up defeating the purpose. You end up so tired that things don't go well. Anyway, best of luck on the concerts!

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

Busy movin yet....but taking time to play! :)

[Poguemahone]

Good for you, can always find time to play

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

I am hoping to get to 2000 post this week here.

[Poguemahone]

Go for it. Really tired because of the heat that has come to this side of Ottawa.

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

I am very busy today, have to be out of forum awhile in a few minutes, translating Old English as well.

[Tarcristiel]

The knee is hurting, so I had to take 1/2 Vicodine. Ugh.

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

Ouch kazbels.

Today I am watching rain and drawing a picture.

[Barahir]

bla

[Poguemahone]

Too tired to think today

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

I am up too early as well. Stupid time zones.

[Poguemahone]

I know what you mean. I travel a lot during the summer

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

Getting supper, then playing cards. I feel a bit tired from last night.

[Poguemahone]

Bored, wishing I was at the soccer field.

[Tarcristiel]

Thinking I should go eat supper.

[Poguemahone]

Tired from overwork

[Poguemahone]

Horrible. I came home from school to find out that my dog had suffocated with his head in a chip bag that I forgot to put in the trash.:sad :cry2 :( :cry :(c

[Tarcristiel]

Balin, I am so sorry to hear that. You have my sympathies.

[Poguemahone]

Thanks

[Barahir]

How sad. :(c

[Poguemahone]

yeh, I know

[Arathorn III]

Again, I'm sorry. :cry

I'm good today - lots of soccer. Should be fun. Balin is even reffing one of my games. I shall have to be very careful. ;)

[Barahir]

Yeah...

Well, as for myself, I just came back from a VolksWagen show in Lawrence, Kansas, but I have a band practice (church) coming up at 2:30, so I'm a little tired. Fairly happy, though, since school's over. :)c

[Poguemahone]

Legs are like mush. I reffed the game after Beres at the same time and it was just as fast if not faster. Also pulled a leg muscle in the first 5 min of that game.

[Barahir]

Oooh... I know how that feels. Bleh.

Say, Balin, just out of curiosity, how much do you squat?

[Poguemahone]

meaning?

[Barahir]

How much weight can you squat (the technique of 'squat' involves putting a 45 lb. bar on your shoulders with weights on either end)? I can usually rep 265-275lb. a few times.

[Poguemahone]

Never done it before. I do push-ups and sit-ups.

[Barahir]

Ah, well never mind, then. It's a very good leg workout, though. You should try it, since you play soccer. :)

[Barahir]

Eh... I moved this topic here, since it's not really a 'fluf' topic. ;)

[phoenix230978]

Exercise? whats that?

[Barahir]

That stuff that hurts. :p

[Theodred]

You can bench a whole lot more than me...then again, I just started. Also, I'm a skinny boy.

EDIT: Bleh, profanity filter...

[Barahir]

:lolc

Squat. Squat, Theo, not bench. ;)

[Theodred]

Ah, I misread it then. That's just about right for squatting, but it's insane for benching. For a moment I was thinking that Barahir was akin to Conan the Barbarian...

[Barahir]

:lolc Ah, yes, of course... I'm a real tough guy. Yeah, my real father is Sylvester Stallone. :p

[Lothíriel]

:lolc

I've very good today...I finally got a job! And I have prospects for a second one that I might follow up on

[Theodred]

One job just isn't enough! Job Domination!

[Barahir]

Oh boy... I really wish I could get one. I applied at Earl May's... and alot of other places.

[Lothíriel]

I'll pray for you...I've heard that the job market is especially tough this summer for teens

[Theodred]

and adults too for that matter...

[Barahir]

Thanks. Yeah, I've noticed that. Why is that, do you think?

[Tarcristiel]

Congarts, Lorian!

Unless businesses are specifically looking for summer help, it's tough for a teen to get a job because the employer is concerned how long the teen will stay. Does he want the job for just the summer? How much time will he want off, or just call out, so he can go to the beach with his buddies.

And there's a perception of teens as lazy or rude or both. It is tough looking for a job as a teen unless you live near a resort where they want summer help.

Best of lucks, job-seekers.

[X Rogue]

I never had trouble getting a summer job as a teen, but that prolly had something to do with the fact that I never tried to get one till I was 19. And I looked and was very responsible.

[Barahir]

I'm responsible and I look it, too... I even wear nice clothes!

[Theodred]

Been having finals. Bleh.

[Barahir]

Are you in school right at this moment?

[Tarcristiel]

Keep looking, Barahir. God will lead you to that perfect job.

[Tarcristiel]

Back on topic:

I am feeling great today. Saw my GP, and the blood pressure looks good, and I've lost some more weight. I sure didn't like going through all the pain with the gall bladder, but a good side effect (for me) has been a decrease in my appetite. I find it easier to recognize when I'm full, and I don't feel compelled to finish everything on my plate any more. The other day I ate half a Hershey's bar with almonds (snack size) and had no problem throwing the rest of it away. Yay!
:bounce

[Lothíriel]

Congrats! That is an accomplishment

Oh! I'm feeling rather exuberant today...I landed a second job today! So, starting tomorrow(!)...well not really until Kountry Kupboard opens...I'll be working 30-40 hours a week which is definitely what I've wanted. :D This day has been rather awesome for me! (I'm almost through watching RotK too...I won't finish it until later though)

[X Rogue]

Good. :D That's great.

I am feeling blah, but ate a bite of chocolate and feel better. Today is my birthday, I am 33 today. :)

[Tarcristiel]

Happy birthday, X Rogue! :bday

:cheesecake

[Arathorn III]

Happy Birthday Rogue! :bday

I was sick yesterday, but today I am getting over it. :)

[Tarcristiel]

Sorry to hear you were sick, but glad you are getting better. :)

[Barahir]

Happy Birthday, Rogue. :bday

Glad to hear you're getting over your sickness, Bere. :D

[Arathorn III]

Thanks! Hopefully I will be better for soccer tomorrow. :)

[Barahir]

Good luck at your game, then. :)

[Arathorn III]

Thanks, but it's not a big deal. :)

[Barahir]

Every game counts. ;)

[Medea]

Happy Birthday, Rogue. Hope the next year of your life is the best so far *gives Rogue a slice of :cheesecake *

and to stay on topic...so far, in a good mood today. Only 30 minutes or so into the day, though

[Barahir]

Well, I guess I could say likewise. :)

[Eowyn Elfsheen]

Today I am in an indifferent mood. It is raining and cold again, but I like it. Another of my favourite Swedes died of a heart attack. So a bit sad, but yet glad as he has reached his place up high.
Other than that, I am moving.

[Lothíriel]

The day has started out great for me today...in about an hour or less I start training at my new job. Pray for me!

[phoenix230978]

Our Father who art in heaven

Nah can't be bothered! Sorry!

And I'm also fine, Taking some time off work malingering and pretending I'm still ill! Although it's technically called recuperating! But I'm getting better! Getting better at what I'm not sure?

[Barahir]

I've had a decent day, overall.

[Lothíriel]

So have I..training was well, training. I dislike being the new girl and being incompetent but my imcompetence today is to be expected since today was my first day...the rest of the day has gone well though...I would rate this day overall pleasant

[Theodred]

Today was okay. I had finals that were long and stressful. This kid who I thought was my friend sorta stole my money. I've been stuck watching Ronald Reagan travel for the past three hours. Maybe today wasn't so okay after all...

[Arathorn III]

I'm not at good as yesterday - still have a sore throat. Arg. :(

[Barahir]

Today's okay... nothing good nothing bad. Okay.

[Lothíriel]

I was kind of down this morning...left over from last night...but work perked me right up. I'm getting faster at making those subs...although the tomatos were too big and kept sliding out if I didn't fold them over

[Barahir]

Oh gosh! Does everyone I know work at a sub place? I just realized that my girlfriend works at Quiznos, and another three guys I know work at Subway! :lolc

[Tarcristiel]

I've never worked at a sub shop. Did work at a Jack-in-Box years ago.

[Barahir]

A what?

[Theodred]

Today was terrible, but at least school is over.

[Tarcristiel]

Jack-in-the-Box is a fast food restaurant. Burgers, tacos, great onion rings, cheesecake. We used to have some here in Maryland, but I understand all the restaurants east of the Mississippi were closed years ago. But I have seen one in Greenville, SC.

[Arathorn III]

I got by today.

Vacation next week, starting Saturday! :)

[Barahir]

I'm okay as usual. :)c

[Tarcristiel]

It's a steady rain here today. Perfect weather for continuing my LoTR movie marathon, so in a few minutes, I'm making myself a cup of tea, pulling out a cross-stitch piece, and sitting down to watch TTT.

[Barahir]

Cool. :)

I'm waiting for a call from my girlfriend to see if she'll be available for tonight. :)

[Lothíriel]

Ooh, sounds great...yeah, there are a few Jack-in-the Boxes here...
Training went okay...I have to get faster at making the subs if I want to keep my job...apparently I'm not fast enough...gotta run to help my mom with something

[Theodred]

Lucky Barahir. He gets to go see movies with a date.

[X Rogue]

Whereas, on the rare occasions I see a movie in the theater, I have a guaranteed date....;)

[Lothíriel]

Heh...I'm almost 19 and I have never been on a date. Poor me... ;)
Today has been contemplative but definitely good...a wonderful Lord's Day.

[Theodred]

I've never been on a date either. Alas for us! :(

Today was okay. I spent most of my weekend up in New Hampshire visiting Dartmouth University. It seems like a nice place to go to school. I took lots of pictures because there was some interesting architecture. I also went to Quichee Gorge, Vermont and hiked down to the river below. It was pretty cool. :)

[Poguemahone]

I jsut finishe 6 hours of typing up 40 pages for a french history class

[Tarcristiel]

I think EzBoard is eating my posts. :(

[Ring-bearer]

I passed my motorcycle endorsement test!! Woohoo! Go me! :D

[Theodred]

My parents are being mean today. For some reason they've continued their war against my internet doings. This morning my dad got on me for why I had to be on the computer so late and all that, which usually isn't like him. I said that I had insomnia and I couldn't think of anything better to do. He said I should have gone to sleep, which is odd. My mom picked up her usual tone with "so, how are your imaginery friends doing." It's pretty infuriating.

[phoenix230978]

Imaginary. We are not imaginary!

[Theodred]

I sure hope so...

[Ring-bearer]

*touches arm* Yup, I'm real.

[phoenix230978]

Thats good I was getting kinda worried!

[Tarcristiel]

Considering the way my knee is hurting, at times I wish I were imaginary. {reconsiders this and shakes head}. No, I definitely prefer being real. How else could I enjoy Tolkien and baseball and Star Trek and Beethoven and this great board?

RB - congarts on passing your motorcyle endorsement test! Enjoy the open road!

[X Rogue]

Awright, RB!!:)

I'm real but wish I wasn't. Does that help? ;) It takes years to get your parents raised right, Theo. Trust me, it does get better.

[Tarcristiel]

Yes, it's a wonder parents survive their offspring's teen-agers years. :lolc

[Tarcristiel]

My son won't give me the Texas quarter he got when he bought something for me today! :( And we must have the preciousss, yess, we must!

[Lothíriel]

heh heh...I used to collect the state quarters but I've been lax as of late

I'm doing okay today. My schedule is taking some wrestling to figure out. I haven't had a normal schedule yet this summer. I extremely dislike not being able to plan in advance. Hopefully things will work out and I'll get to start at Kountry Kupboard soon. That schedule should be a little more reliable than Subway.

[phoenix230978]

Being in the Uk I can't collect state quarters but I have got all four of the different UK pound coins (Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland) a lot easier to collect than the 50 state coin methinks

[Lothíriel]

well, perhaps...but the US mint produces a bunch of them that are released into regular circulation and they're worth 25 cents just like a regular quarter. Actually, since so many people are "collecting" them they probably won't be worth very much

[Theodred]

I hate track.

[Lothíriel]

Bad meet or something?

[Barahir]

Or bad meat? :lolc

*sorry*

[Theodred]

No. My coach is mean.

[Barahir]

Yeah... I know how that can be. I don't do track stuff anymore, though.

[Lothíriel]

I'm having a good day. Work was interesting but it turned out good. *le sigh*. I'm on call tomorrow so I may not have to work but overall today has been a very good day.

[Barahir]

Today's been... okay. I'm ripping CDs, now, though, so it's going slow...

[Lothíriel]

today has been wierd so far...I'm "on call" with work. which pretty much means that I can't plan anything significant for today...*le sigh* I know though that God is in control

[Tarcristiel]

I need to go do some stuff, but instead I'm having fun here.

[Barahir]

Yeah... I have to go work at the church today. We're doing some sort of five-day-club and I'm supposed to be there at 2:00 (central time, mind you ;) ).

[Lothíriel]

which is what...in an hour?

[Barahir]

Well right now it's about 1:15 for me, so I'll need to leave in 30 minutes or so, in order to get up there in advance. It's getting ready to rain, though, and my umbrella broke (in many places), so it should be interesting...

[Johann Sebaptist Bach]

I'm fine today. nice board.

[Lothíriel]

Well thanks...I have nothing to do with it :D

I'm having a very good day. I was on call...but tee hee...I don't have to go in to work this evening. How loverly. And I get to take care of some very cute kids tonight. :D

[Barahir]

Which ones are those?

[Lothíriel]

Alex, Annie, Reed, Kaleigh, Bradley, and Kinsley :D
I'm babysitting for a shephearding group...a small group in our church

[Barahir]

Ah, I see. :)c

[Lothíriel]

Good now...I don't work at Subway anymore...I was on a trial period and the schedule difficulties with my other job were just too much apparently...my car is now clean and no longer smells :D

[Barahir]

Yes, but although your car no longer smells, is it still able to see and taste?

[Tarcristiel]

I had a great day today!

First, I had lunch with a former co-worker. Although we haven't worked together for almost 4 years, we still stay in touch and get together for lunch 2-3 times a year. We always have a fun time.

We had agreed to meet in front of the Barnes & Noble bookstore. I got there early so, after checking out the cross-stitch mags and not finding anything worth buying, I checked out the Tolkien selection. And guess what I got? They had both Sauron Defeated and Morgoth's Ring - in hardback! Well, it did not take me very long to decide I had to scarf them up right then and there. Those two titles have been hard-to-find (for me) so I am delighted. Of course, I've blown my book budget for June & July, but who cares?

After I got home, I realized I had enough time to watch Pirates of the Caribbean before picking up my son from work, so I watched and stitched. After dinner, I finished the LoTR trilogy by watching RoTK and stitching some more.

And now I'm posting here! What a great day. :)

[Medea]

indeed :)

And it's only about 2 hours into the new day, so it hasn't had time to go bad yet :p

[Baseloaf]

Go sleep Meddy! :b

Bah, feeling irritable today:(

[Theodred]

Let's see. Today...:wall

[Baseloaf]

Oh? You´re going to a rock concert? :b

[Poguemahone]

I wish that I was

[Lothíriel]

I'm doing well today. I had the day off but since my internet...probably my computer...has been on the fritz and I can't really use it i haven't been able to get online but this morning i watched a couple hours of D-Day special stuff on the history Channel that my dad taped for me a couple of weeks ago and did a lot of stitching...my piece is almost done! well not quite but almost...if I had air conditioning in my car it would be even better...i also sold six books on Amazon so far

[Barahir]

I had a good day. That's just about it. :)c

[Daughter of Mirkwood]
