I think he's imitating RA's staccato style.

I'm back home from a family get-together at Chris' folks' house. The nieces had balloons. Balloons were everywhere - much bopping with balloons, batting balloons around in air, and popping of balloons.

I now hate balloons.

Me, too. Thanks, Larry!

Ah, the peace and quiet of home after the pandemonium of the in-laws house... :)

[Matthieu]

Ha, yes, that was my homage to Anthony.

[byhera]

is tht fun?

[Sally, la reina]

What do you have against the letter "a", CJ?

[Matthieu]

Today's youth seem to have a tremendous aversion to certain vowels.

idk, do you have too sally?

[RandomAnthony]

Sorry, I was rather not in the condition to type...plus I was trying to capture the bonfire mood. Although I like Dave's "staccato style" designation. I don't know that I've ever had a style:)

Ooh, balloons drive me crazy. I'm not a fan of balloons mixed with children.

I'm hungover right now. Coffee, please.

[RandomAnthony]

Which play, Matty?

[Kevin]

Yup Sally. Loaded my canoe and went with a friend for a 4+ hr jaunt down the Wildcat Creek near here. 7 impassable snags as it hasn't been cleaned up yet. Think I will volunteer this year with my chainsaw when they do it. Local DNR does a cleanup weekend for the waterways every year. Today some "road farming" after more yard and property work. Getting ready for church now....

[RandomAnthony]

Right now I am DOMINATING cornhole competition. I am 5-0 in individual play.

You are all witnesses.

[Kate Padilla]

Right now I'm reading up on Charles Baxter's Feast of Love (I finished the book yesterday) and I'm finishing a cup of English Breakfast tea.

[Kevin]

right now I am glad to be in my chair finally. I want a diet coke with a slice of lime but there is no one here to sweet talk into getting it for me

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

Right now, my hands and feet are warming back up after riding my bike back home from the in-laws in the dusk.
It was a long, noisy, family-filled day.

Tired. But happy.

[Lori]

Right now I am very sleepy but must stay up long enough to have my Ben & Jerry's Mint Oreo. I've got my priorities!

[RandomAnthony]

You know, it's funny, the last four or five posts remind me of how exhausting holiday weekends can be. I want to sit in a dark room and be quiet for a while after all the visitors and activity. Although the visitors are still here, so that wouldn't be very polite.

I'm looking forward to my office tomorrow. Although I don't mean to sound like I've haven't had fun...the weekend has been great...

[byhera]

oh lucky you are, who will have a verry looong halyda.
^^(

[Kevin]

Best part about a 3 day weekend is the ensuing 4 day work week

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

I'm enjoying having the house to myself after spending several hours shopping and lunching downtown with a big chunk of Chris' extended family.

I brought home a paperback copy of Neverwhere A Novel from Orca Books.

[RandomAnthony]

Funny, I just lent my friend Jed my copy of Neverwhere Saturday night...

I'm with you, our Chicago visitors are gone. The house is quiet. I'm glad they came, but...yay! They're gone!

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

I still have a picnic in the park for dinner tonight to look forward to. KFC takeout, and watching the kids on the playground until it gets dark, I'm guessing.

[Félix]

Watch out for the balloons, Jackie.

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

The balloons all popped or shriveled, Larry. Darn!
;)

[Félix]

There's a Eastern Mystical saying that goes with that, Jackie. But I can't seem to access that memory bank right now.

[Kevin]

My guests haven't left yet...(my kids and their GF/BF's)

"Bye, see ya...ok.... See you guys...love ya!"

[Nuri]

I'm home until Thursday.
I ate a whole bowl of cherries and a Korean melon.
There was also kimchi stew, grilled fish, and home-pickled cucumber kimchi.
It was SO good.

Beats last night's mustard and cheese sandwiches by a whole lot.


I wish I could just read myself to sleep now, but there are cover and thank you letters to be written.

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

I like mustard and cheese sandwiches...

[Sally, la reina]

Mmmmm. Mustard, cheese, pastrami, and pickles. On light rye, with iced tea.

[Heidi]

I'm soooo thrilled to have had a crazy busy morning this morning at work! When we get like this, I get singularly focused on what I'm doing... with razorbeam attention.

One of the pts told me, "You've been doing this for a long time... I can tell! You're really good at this." It surprisingly caught me off-guard to hear that. And made me super happy.

[Sally, la reina]

Yay Heidi! That makes me smile for you.



Right now I'm headed out to the patio with a stack of books and a pitcher of iced tea.

[[deleted user]]

Laser Heidi, one of our new Super Heroes. :-D.

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

Heidi, I'm not surprised to hear you're good at what you do. :D

I'm looking out the window of my office at the first cloudy sky I've seen since LAST Tuesday, and feeling very grateful for the great weather I had over the holiday.

[Dave]

Perhaps influenced by a post you made in another thread, I thought for a second you were headed out to the patio with a stack of boobs, Sally.

[Heidi]

:) Usually when someone gives positive feedback about my teammates, I encourage them to write a quick note to our study PI so she can hear that people are happy with her staff. And, also, so coworkers can have positive feedback in their personnel folders.

I didn't think to encourage said person to do that this morning b/c it was such a nice surprise.

[Sally, la reina]

I had to come in and put on more of a shirt. It's sunny out there, but not warm.

[Nuri]

Oh.... Not to complain? They were all right, but growing up, bread was always something we resorted to when there was no rice.

Yay for Heidi's razorbeam attention! I really like the way "razorbeam attention" feels. I imagine a sharp and sparkly glint in your eyes. Speaking of sparklies, I can easily imagine Heidi naturally and effortlessly emitting pink hearts and sparkles.

[Lori]

So can I, because Heidi is nice and sparkly!

Heidi, I can't remember, when did you finally move out from the moldy building?

[Sally, la reina]

She kind of does here already!

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

She does, doesn't she. I love your positive spirit, Heidi! :)

[Heidi]

HOLY SPIT!!! I meant "laserbeam attention." I'm totally blushing right now. And I'm sure my face matches my hot pink dress.

We moved out of the moldy office building in early December. Now I'm holed up in a closet with no windows. I miss my moldy office... at least I had a window.

Really?!! Because I'd like to think that I'm TOUGH!!! And scary! And intimidating!!!


(GRRRRR... I'm a bear.)

[Kevin]

i like heidi's profile pic

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

Can you put up a picture of an outdoor scene, Heidi? That's supposed to be beneficial, even though it's illusory.

[Heidi]

Oh, I have decor ready to put up when we finally get our overhead storage units installed. They've been promising them since December. We're not supposed to put anything on the walls, though... admin guidelines. Bummer.

[Nuri]

NONO, I LIKE RAZOR BETTER!

(GRRRRR... I'm a bear.)
A teddy bear? :D
<3

[Heidi]

You're clearly not taking me seriously, Nools.

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

Hahahaha!!!!
