You can still post on the nail polish thread and be sports mad. You lot just don't talk about the right sports, now if it was Cricket, Rugby, AFL, NBL, you might talk my language.

just got back from a rolling lunch. a hot dog at my buddy Al's cart downtown and then a 45 minute ride down the most scenic road in howard county. almost just kept riding....

[Sally, la reina]

Lunch on roller skates?

[Kevin]

uhm...no sally

[Sally, la reina]

At least the ficus thinks I'm clever.

[Kevin]

oh, i think you are clever.

[Sally, la reina]

::preens::

[Kevin]

i don't have to sit behind you while you are preening and pick the nits out of your hair and make monkey noises do i?

[Kevin]

my lunch time

[Sally, la reina]

that looks awesome, kevin.


No you don't have to eat my nits. I was imagining myself in more of a bird self-preening mode, anyhoo.

[Kevin]

good, i am not good at nit-picking


yeah, i was riding down the curvy road with my feet up on the highway pegs and fished my phone out of my right front pocket with my left hand and opened up my camera app and took this pic while riding. you can see now why i have so many scars and skinned up places. i live like an everyday stunt man

Hopefully the dog's not telling you to go out and kill, is it Berkowitz?

[Kevin]

no but she keeps bringing me the DVD boxes of Nell, Silence Of The Lambs, Taxi Driver and the original Freaky Friday

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

She's a Jodi Foster fan? Good dog! ;)

[Kevin]

nicely done jacks

I met Jodi Foster during the filming of that. Remember the scene with the marching band, where mom is already in the daughter's body & keeps messing up? That was my junior high school band. We spent the day filming, and I met her during lunch. Of course I had no idea that she would turn out to be such a big deal.

[Kevin]

btw - that was an obscure John Hinckley Jr reference after comment 4371

[janine]

my new roommate's father is painting her room so now the entire house smells like different shades of paint and middle-aged smoking guy. i also saw the guy carrying around four chihuahua's in his denim jacket again. he looked exactly the same and i saw him in the exact same spot i saw him before. it's one of the more interesting intersections in town. take a left or right turn for prostitutes, go straight ahead for the halal butcher, or take a few steps back to visit the synagogue.

[[deleted user]]

So, which way did you go?

[janine]

straight ahead, past the halal butcher and the sex store, to the university.

Agreed!

[janine]

at least your eyes are still even.

[Sally, la reina]

is that what those are? i thought it was a cassette tape.

[Phil]

I'm one of the six people actually watching CNN. They verified your earthquake. Nothing more than a dish-rattler, from their description.

[Sally, la reina]

Yeah, so get over yourselves, says Mike.

[Kevin]

right now i am watching an epic tennis match online from wimbledon. incredible. currently 54-53 in 5th set. this match has gone more than 6 hours. unbelievable. these guys mahut and insner are still gutting this out

[Heidi]

Wow. This ONE page on this thread is AAAAALLL over the map. No way in hell I'll even try to make sense of it.

[Heidi]

Yeah. No.

[Kevin]

hey heidi, this is supposed to be a Right Now I'm theme

[Heidi]

Right now I'm clockwatching and pissed off at Sprint because they keep making me change my password for my online account, so I never know what it actually is... and then I can't access it to get the pics that I've taken with my phone (so the pics of my large purse and small book will have to wait, Bun... sorry!).

Also, I'm enjoying TWO new CDs from Robert & Mary Gillihan - they were childhood favorites... played mostly traditional tunes - shapenote musicians (mountain/folk music), autoharp, bass, mandolin, pickin bow, spoons, harmony - the good stuff! :)

Mary sent them to me in the mail, and I got them in today... so THAT part is very, very good. In fact, I'd say it's put me in a much better mood than I was in this morning (because some jackass set the thermostat on our floor at 89 and I got sick!!!).

Also, I changed my toenail polish. Now it's sort of a nude peachy pink color. I forget the name of it, but rest assured it's an OPI color. :)

[Félix]

Right now I'm in the terminal at Tucson airport watching jet fighters take off. I have an hour and 50 minutes until I leave for Phoenix (a 20 minute flight) and change there for Omaha.

It's very hot in Tucson this week. No big surprises there.

Right now I am waiting patiently to see if Australia has a new Prime Minister... A female Julia Gillard... Any minute now we will know.

[[deleted user]]

The girls are kicking butt. Julia Gillard is our new Prime Minister. Our first female Prime Minister.

Right now I am doing hand stands, and cartwheels.

[[deleted user]]

You really should have put clothes on first Gail :-)

[[deleted user]]

Oh, and congratulations to the new Prime Minister.

[[deleted user]]

Nahhhh. It's a lot freer & easier without them. :D

Continuing doing hand stands & cartwheels totally starkers.

[[deleted user]]

::goes to get camera, might as well save the moment for posterity::

[[deleted user]]

Moments like this don't come very often, it is the least you could do.

[smetchie]

Yay!! Gail!!! That's fantastic!

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

Packing up to go home from work. Today I was totally distracted by all the salad festivities.

Is there any excuse for green jello salad, really? I don't think so.

[Sally, la reina]

That reminds me of Underworld. Gus, what is the deal with that lady's jell-o fixation?

A little late, but my apologies. You are absolutely correct! Mostly, I just don't bother with nail polish because it would last about 5 minutes in my job. My daughter is a total sports nut like me and a princess that loves shoes, purses, and make-up so I should know better!

[janine]

right now i don't have running water :(

[ms.petra]

right now I am feeling bad for you :(

[janine]

when it can't be fixed today i will have to flee to my parents. right now i'm waiting for someone from the water company to call me back.

[Youndyc]

Right now I'm feeling really bad for the Florida Panhandle. And all the rest of the coastal areas affected by the spill, but they happen to be broadcasting from an empty gorgeous beach in Pensacola right now. Florida and Louisiana are getting totally F#$ed by all this - Alabama and Mississippi less so (far less coast).

[ms.petra]

Youndye,
I just heard a travel agent on the radio saying that most of the beaches are oil free and gorgeous. I think they are trying to keep people traveling and supporting those businesses along the Gulf. Have you been out to the Gulf yourself and seen the reality? What does your local news show? Sometimes I feel like the news shows us what they want us to see......

[janine]

i have running water again! apparently i share a main valve with my neighbours and they shut it off. they also have their own main valve, which they shut off now, instead of the shared one.

[Youndyc]

From what I've been hearing and what they are showing on the local news, there are waves of oil clumps landing in various places, then they get them cleaned up and the top layer will be pristine, but underneath that top layer there may or may not be dirty (i.e., oily) clumps. I haven't been to the beach, but I'm contemplating looking for a late summer cottage or condo rental on the Panhandle, because the prices are going to be amazing, and if you don't spend a lot of tiem on the sand anyway it could be perfect. It's just really hard to say what's going to happen ultimately. I think Florida has it a bit easier in terms of clean up - to clean up the beaches is way easier than cleaning up the marshy areas of the Louisiana coast.

Frankly, it's all pretty depressing.
