Who is still awake?

[Not_Giving_Up]

Just checking!

[BikeWriter]

1. Uh, there are a few of us still out here. :-)

[Not_Giving_Up]

2. Hey neighbor!

Long time no type! Don't you know it's almost 3 AM? Why are you still up?

[BikeWriter]

11. Uh, your typing kept me awake?

[Not_Giving_Up]

12. Puleeze!

The lump on the couch is snoozing away, despite my typing. Besides, I didn't even start typing until about 30 minutes ago...So, what was keeping you up before that?

[BikeWriter]

21. Oh, I'm normally awake this time in the mornng. I'll probably...

crash here after a while.

[Not_Giving_Up]

22. Since I've been out of work

My sleep schedule is fucked. The last two weeks, I've either only had the oldest kid or none at all, so there was no real reason to get out of bed. I was getting up at noon or later, after going to bed at 5 or 6. I have both kids back, no way I'm sleeping in tomorrow (oh shit, that's today!).

[BikeWriter]

28. Well, I hope you get your rest in Sweety. I'm retired...

so I keep weird hours.

[Not_Giving_Up]

29. i'll probably squeeze in a nap

I have to to Galveston tomorrow to submit four job applications and take a typing test for two more.

[BikeWriter]

32. Good luck with the job applications. :-)

[Not_Giving_Up]

33. Thanks!

I have a pretty good shot at UTMB, they have about a million positions open that I can do.

[BikeWriter]

35. Hey, very good. That's supposed to be a good place to work. :-)

[Not_Giving_Up]

37. I hope so

I need a job, and would really like a good one!

[BikeWriter]

39. You'll get one, Dear, I'm sure. :-)

[Not_Giving_Up]

41. I hope so

At least I'm getting unemployment (finally!)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. Hi there!

I'm still here, but not for too much longer...I'm fading! How are you tonight?

Happy Monday!

:hi:

[Not_Giving_Up]

5. I'm still going

The therapist gave us book last week that we're both supposed to read. I read seven chapters tonight. The other half would like me to fill him in when I'm done. Therapist specifically said that wouldn't work because then he could say that I'm making up stuff.

[Bucky]

4. Just woke up

does that count? Had a weird ass dream, now I'm all worryish

[Not_Giving_Up]

7. Sure that counts

You're awake aren't you?

[Rhiannon12866]

16. Are you okay?

Some bad dreams can freak you out.:scared:

[Bucky]

24. Dreamed I had a "Joe-ner"

[Not_Giving_Up]

25. Oh, man!

You're gonna need therapy now!

[Rhiannon12866]

30. Sorry, you're going to have to translate for me.

My last nightmare was that I was being pursued by an alligator, much more straightforward.:shrug:

[tjwmason]

6. Only just

Managed to get into work early (it's quarter to nine over here), which means that I can leave early :woohoo:

Are the rest of you Pacific coasters? (A long way from Merry England to say the least.)

[Not_Giving_Up]

9. I'm in Texas

It's nearly 3 AM here.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

19. Good morning, tjwmason!

Well, you know I'm a Pacific coaster! Hmmm...sounds a bit funny! lol

We're ONLY 8 hours different from you folks over there! Hope you'll have a lovely day...

:hi:

BTW, I'm curious: how far away (distance, or time) are you from London?

[tjwmason]

31. Good morning, CaliforniaPeggy.

The sun is shining brightly, and I'm sitting next to a wide open window which looks out onto a garden and a couple of fields - so there are some good omens for a lovely day.

I hope that once your new day begins it is a most beautiful one.

I'm fairly close to London. The train from the local station takes about 40 minutes, right into the centre (Marylebone - if you know London geography). I think that it's about 20-30 miles by road, but taking the train is usually far easier, more convenient &c. There are loads of commuters round here who travel into London on a daily basis - personally I'll stick with a gentle half hour walk to work.

8. Barely

:hi:

[Not_Giving_Up]

10. Me too!

I just realized that I have put some strange music on my mp3 player.

[Rhiannon12866]

13. Me!

:shrug:

[Not_Giving_Up]

15. Hi there!

:hi:

[Rhiannon12866]

20. Hello, my friend! I'm still awake and out here!

Just catching up with e-mail, and touching base with DU!:hi:

[Not_Giving_Up]

23. Me too

For some reason, I am listening to Debbie Gibson. :wtf:

[Rhiannon12866]

26. Who's that? I have CNN on the TV, but expect little from them.

BTW, I see that we're twins, LOL! We both look just like the honorable John Conyers! I complied with CatWoman's request, but feel pretty weird, since I've had Jimmy Carter as my avatar for so long that I expected to see his face whenever I looked in the mirror, LOL! But John Conyers deserves whatever we can give him, IMHO.:D

[Not_Giving_Up]

27. From the 80s

Most of my music on my mp3 player is sixties stuff...Somehow 80s has invaded.

There was an official request? I changed mine after watching the meeting in the basement and then seeing him hand the petitions through bars to a WH aide with clenched fists.

[Rhiannon12866]

34. I had actually thought of changing, especially after I read his actual

post on DU, but I was so attached to Mr. Carter. But CatWoman did ask, and got a hundred complies, and I like her and see her point, so I changed. And I also was glued to the DSM meeting in the basement, watched it twice, and hung on every word. His actions are heroic, so this is the least I could do, besides signing his petition and replying to his post on DU.:-)

Are you into '60s stuff? I'm into '70s. Fleetwood Mac being among my favorites.:D

[Not_Giving_Up]

36. The first time I watched it...

I sat in my computer chair until 4 AM mainly listening because the feed on my dial up was so shitty. When they showed it on CSpan 2, I taped it. Now I can watch it over and over! My husband is certain that I have gone over the edge. I'll just sit and watch my tape of "Thank God I have a Senator!" (Jan. 6), now I have this one to do the same with.

I listen to a wide range of music.

[Rhiannon12866]

38. And, yes, CatWoman made a specific request.

I just looked, and there are 170 replies! Every one of us with Conyers avatars, LOL! I asked her how we were now going to tell each other apart, but I sure do see her point. We have been waiting for someone to step forward, and he was willing, an historic act. And I was honored that he posted on DU. My friend sponsored him, so he now has a star, so can post polls or use the search function, if he's so inclined, LOL!:D

And I like a range of music, as well, but most from the '70s, like Fleetwood Mac, Simon & Garfunkel and James Taylor.:shrug:

[Not_Giving_Up]

42. LOL...I wasn't aware!

Mine was changed in the wee hours of Friday morning. I saw that he had posted. Very cool!

I've got Peter Paul & Mary going now. It's time for bed!

[Rhiannon12866]

45. Yes, she asked and I delivered, though I had been thinking of it!

Especially since he didn't choose this avatar for himself, LOL! And I just loved his post. Inspiring.

And I LOVE Peter, Paul, and Mary. I've seen them live in concert. Sweet dreams and thanks for the nice chat.

Rhiannon:hi:

[Not_Giving_Up]

46. I HAVE to sleep!

It's 4 AM. See ya later!

[Rhiannon12866]

47. I KNOW! It's 5am, my time, so please get some rest!

And check back with me, sometime, since we're, obviously, on the same page.

Rhiannon:-)

[Robeson]

14. Worked late. Too wound up to go to sleep.....

...I would normally take some Tylenol PM, but now, can't mix it with the booze....

[Crazy Guggenheim]

17. I'm fading though.

[MissHoneychurch]

18. awake and working

rather would be laying in the sun enjoying the nice weather. But no .... weekend is over and its back to work.

[tjwmason]

40. Did you have good weather over the week-end?

It was absolutely glorious here, and still is wonderful today - hopefully there will still a good while of sun left when I get home. :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

44. oh yes

temps over 30°C and it will stay that way the next days. Tomorrow they expect thunderstorms but the temps are staying that high :bounce:

Too bad we have to work

[enigmatic]

43. Still up doing my overnight show...

And monitoring the river here in Edmonton as it rises; we've got a flood warning here..

[progressoid]

48. I should either be sleeping or working

but here I am surfing the internets.

[drfresh]

49. I am

Had insomnia last night, and now my clock's all screwed up.. alas.

Somebody should post notice, Hardball is doing a "Special Report" on the Downing Street Memo today, debating whether Bush misled the nation. I'd make a thread but I have no posts :P
