Good Wednesday Morning, Crew!

[Clintmax]

:donut::hi:
How the heck are ya? I hope all is well! Welcome to another "Hump Day" edition of the Early Morning Crew! :bounce: My first day back to work after the long weekend I had off was a good one. It seemed like it went by at warp speed! One minute I was clocking in, the next it was time to go home.

Let's get this day started so maybe IT will go by quickly as well, huh?!

2. Morning Clint!

:hi:

[Clintmax]

3. Hail, Billy!

:hi:
How's work today? Smooth as silk, I hope!

[billyskank]

8. Making progress

trying to understand what's wrong with this silly thing they told me to fix. It's certainly behaving strangely, that's for sure.

[Clintmax]

23. Virus!

Those people who create virus' and things need slapped right across the face! Hackers too! :spank:

[billyskank]

52. Lol. No, I don't think I need to blame viruses

Just dodgy code. :)


(There is nothing wrong with hackers. Hackers are just nerds who like programming. The people who write viruses and stuff like that are properly called scumbags. Unfortunately the media long ago started referring to them as hackers, much to the annoyance of the real hackers).

[Clintmax]

55. LOL! Still though...

The internet would be a much better place without them!

[billyskank]

60. Hackers, or scumbags?

The internet was made by hackers. It was screwed up by scumbags.

[Clintmax]

65. LOL! Oh, well...now I don't know.

Scumbags then! :rofl:

[billyskank]

66. Down with scumbags!

:bounce:

[Clintmax]

69. YEAH!

:bounce: :rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

7. Darlin' billy!

Nice to see you!!!! :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[billyskank]

10. Hey SeattleGirl!

Nice to see you too! :loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

22. You too, billy!

:loveya:

[tjwmason]

75. Good morning billy.

:hi:

Despite having chatted elsewhere already. :eyes:

[billyskank]

93. Good afternoon mason

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

4. Good morning Clint

my morning went by pretty fast - thanks to DU (in case you saw how much I post today). :hide:

[Clintmax]

6. Morning, Miss Honey!

:hi::hug:
Yes, I see you've been busy here today! I'm glad the morning went by quickly, now we just need to help the rest of your day be fast also! :bounce:

[MissHoneychurch]

17. Actually I get work done also

I am in a good work mood today. But also in the mood to post :shrug:

[Clintmax]

25. I'm glad!

Luckily, you can post from work! We don't have internet access at my store, so I can't.

[MissHoneychurch]

46. And fortunately they don't check which pages we are going to

and how long we are on them.

[Clintmax]

51. LOL! Even better!

Hopefully some day we'll be able to access our companies website at the very least.

[MissHoneychurch]

54. your company has a webside?

what is the adress?

[Clintmax]

56. I'll send it to you in a pvt. message...

We have lots of cool stuff...

[MissHoneychurch]

59. thanks

now did you have any strange customers yesterday?

[Clintmax]

67. No, no strange customers yesterday.

Thank goodness. :bounce:

[MissHoneychurch]

62. WOW

that really is cool stuff. Beautiful.

[Clintmax]

68. Yes...we have a LOT of nice stuff!

That's why I like working there so much!

[MissHoneychurch]

70. I totally understand

do you have some of the stuff at home? Are you getting percentage?

[Clintmax]

71. No, I don't have any of the stuff in my own house.

But we DO get a great employee discount! :bounce:

[MissHoneychurch]

74. Good to know

:evilgrin:

[tjwmason]

73. Good morning Miss Honeychurch.

:hi:

How are you today?

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

78. Hey tj

I am doing fine. Am in a great mood - for no particular reason :)

:hug:

[tjwmason]

81. That's wonderful to hear.

Great moods are magnificent - when they arise for no real reason even better.

:hug:

Edit typo

[MissHoneychurch]

84. true, so true

one should cherish those moments :)

I feel like :bounce: the whole time. Have a smile on my face :)

being part of this community here is one reason

[Callalily]

90. Morning MissH

Glad to hear work is going well today. And also glad to hear about your upcoming trip to the US!!! I suspect you won't be coming as far as the midwest!

[MissHoneychurch]

95. Good morning SimplyF

unfortunately the midwest isn't on my agenda :cry: I would love to meet you. To meet everybody I want to meet I would need more travel time. But that doesn't allow my budget and vacation time.

How are you this morning?

[Callalily]

97. I'm much better this

morning than I was last night, thank gawd. Got real sick all of a sudden, but I'm feeling much better. Not up to full capacity, but functionable.

You should let us know your itinerary and maybe get-together's could be arranged. Just a thought . . .

[SeattleGirl]

5. Clintmax, darlin'!!!!

Nice song of the day, dear! :loveya: :hug: :loveya:

[Clintmax]

11. Morning, Miss Seattle!

:hi::hug::loveya:
It's a great song, isn't it? How are you doing today?

[SeattleGirl]

13. Better than yesterday

Here:

[Clintmax]

30. SWEET!

:bounce::bounce::loveya:
I'm SO glad the meeting went like that, my dear! I'm sure you feel LOTS better!

[tjwmason]

9. Good morning Clint.

:hi:

Good to hear that your day went swiftly yesterday. Mine dragged horrendously. :(

I've got Bach's complete organ works on shuffle, a wide variety of stuff, and enough to keep me going all day unless I decide to change things.

:hug:

[Clintmax]

15. Hail, TJ!

:hi::hug:
I have days that drag on and on sometimes too, so I know just how you feel. I hope today isn't that way. Has the day so far been good for you?

[tjwmason]

24. I'll take it as a very great compliment.

But I'm not actually billy.

Today hasn't been too bad - but I'm burying myself in my work.

[Clintmax]

31. LOL! Sorry about that, TJ!

Why O why I typed in Billy's name I have NO idea. :rofl: I fixed it though. :hug:

[tjwmason]

33. Like I say - a great compliment.

:rofl:

Perhaps you need some coffee?

:hug:

[Clintmax]

35. I'm having a cup right now!

I'm SO embarassed! :hug:

[tjwmason]

42. We all have our moments from time to time.

But the coffee is bound to be a good idea.

[Clintmax]

44. Yes, I'm sure it is a good idea!

:silly:

[tjwmason]

50. I've got some green-tea at the moment.

But coffee is a definite necessity first thing...

[Clintmax]

57. I love tea as well!

Though I don't drink it nearly as much as coffee. I like sweet iced tea, myself.

[tjwmason]

72. I've never actually tried iced tea.

I don't really have a sweet-tooth though.

[Clintmax]

79. I sure do.

:evilgrin:

[tjwmason]

82. Is work back to normal for you today?

rather than utterly uncivilised hours.

[Clintmax]

85. Yes sir...back to normal hours.

Thank goodness. I like to get up early...but not THAT early. :rofl:

[tjwmason]

87. That was quite a shock.

Logging on when I first got into the office, and seeing you already here. :rofl:

[Clintmax]

88. It was, huh?

Well it was for me too! :rofl: I'm not sure how often I'll have to do that either. See, our freight arrives now on Tuesdays at 6 am. So, I'll have to trade off with another worker to unload the truck. Hopefully, just every other week.

[tjwmason]

94. That doesn't sound too good to me.

I think that it's now time for little T.J. to get an early lunch...some coffee and food will improve things here quite dramatically.

[Random_Australian]

12. Good night, Clint

It's almost time for me to go to bed...
But check my 1st ever post in GD!
I've been wanting to post it for ages.

[Clintmax]

16. Morning/Night, Random!

:hi:
WELCOME TO DU! :bounce: I'll go check out the post...

[NMMNG]

14. Good morning Clint!

Work days that pass that quickly are wonderful, aren't they? As for this work day, it is almost over-for me anyway. I have but an hour left. Then I have the next two days off (use or lose time I have to take off from my weekday job before the end of March). My friend Mike and I are going to a nearby casino for an overnight visit, though we aren't gambling, then we'll hang out doing other stuff during the day tomorrow. Tomorrow night I'll just be kicking around home.

[Clintmax]

19. Morning, Miss Buffy!

:hi::hug:
Being at the end of the day is always good too, although sometimes that last hour can drag on and on. Enjoy your two days off, my dear! I'm sure you and Mike will have fun!

[NMMNG]

34. We definitely will

The casino has a small health club with a few machines, a pool and a jacuzzi. We'll use that both in the evening and the next morning. We'll also have a nice dinner in one of the restaurants, then probably head out somewhere for some window shopping. Then we can hang out in the room, drink coffee and play games. Who says you need a bunch of money to have fun?

[Clintmax]

36. Yeah, exactly!

Who says! I like to do stuff too, where I don't have to spend any money! Some of the "funnest" times were activities like that!

[ScreamingMeemie]

18. Glad your first day back went so well.

I'm having a root canal done today. Root canals are nowhere near as painless as they once were. I'll be glad when it's tomorrow. :hug:

[billyskank]

20. !!!

:hug:

:hi: MrsG! :loveya:

How are you feeling today? Sorry you have to endure the dentist today. I spent an hour in the chair yesterday. :hug:

[ScreamingMeemie]

27. I am lots better billy! Thanks! I went to bed super early last night.

I hope all is well toothwise with you! :hug: :loveya:

[billyskank]

48. Good! I am glad!

One of the teeth she filled is somewhat larger than before. It will take me a little while to get used to it!

:hug:

[Clintmax]

21. Morning, MrsG!

:hi::hug:
I'm sorry you're having to have an RC. I've had them too, so I know how you feel. The ones I've had weren't really painful at all, so hopefully you won't be hurt too much. :loveya:

[ScreamingMeemie]

28. The recent ones haven't been bad at all...I'm just a ninny about going

to the dentist. ;) :hug: :loveya:

[Clintmax]

32. Me too!

:scared: I'm scared to death of dentists...everything they DO hurts.

[tjwmason]

26. Good morning Mrs. G.

:hi:

Hope that the root-canal goes swiftly and painlessly. :hug:

[ScreamingMeemie]

29. Thanks tj! Hope it's drier by you today!

:hug: We're still waiting for the promised warmup! :hi:

[tjwmason]

77. It's actually still very wet here.

We do actually need it, the South East is having one of the worst droughts for years. I'm not that bothered by it, until it's time to go home.

[Hissyspit]

37. Morning!

Peabo Bryson married Juanita Leonard, former wife of boxer Sugar Ray Leonard, in 1992.

[Clintmax]

39. Morning, Hissy!

:hi:
How's every little thing?

[In_The_Wind]

38. Good morning Clint.

This morning's song holds a great deal of meaning for me at this moment. I'm going to fly down to Florida (sometime this year) to see my old boyfriend from 28 years ago. We were lovers throughout our college days.

[Clintmax]

40. Morning, Miss Joan!

:hi::hug:
It's good to see you today, my dear! Songs bring back SO many memories, don't they? Hopefully, when Miss Honey gets here, you and she can make it down this far! :bounce:

[In_The_Wind]

49. I would like that.

I'm not exactly sure where you are. Florida is a rather large place ya know. It's a very long state.
I'll be in Ft Lauderdale when I fly down.

[Clintmax]

53. I'm in Tallahassee.

Not far from the Georgia border. Capitol city dont'cha know. Jeb country. x(

[In_The_Wind]

76. WOW!

I won't see you when I fly down but you aren't all that far from merh if I drive across the deep south on my way back from my summer trip.

I don't know where Miss Honey and I will go. She only has 3 weeks. We haven't talked about whether she wants to stay put in one city for 2 or 3 days or just keep on moving.

[Clintmax]

80. At the very least I'll get to talk to you two on the phone.

Miss Honey and I have discussed THAT at least! :bounce:

[In_The_Wind]

83. I see up thread you two have been discussing quite a bit.

:D

[Clintmax]

86. Oh yes....we always do.

:)

[LaurenG]

41. Good Morning Clintmax

It's good that your first day back went so well. I hope this day goes by at warp speed as well.:bounce: :hi: :loveya:

[Clintmax]

43. Morning, Miss OhioB!

:hi::hug:
It's good to see you today, my dear! Anything exciting going on in your world today?

[LaurenG]

45. Well I made it to work only 5 minutes late after over sleeping

I didn't get up until a bit after five instead of four and I made it! That was pretty exciting! lol How about you?

[Clintmax]

47. Over sleeping like that is the WORST feeling!

I'm glad you were just minutes late, though! The morning has been pretty laid back so far. I have to be to work at 9 today, and hopefully it will be an easy day.

[LaurenG]

58. Here is to an easy day!

:toast:

[Clintmax]

64. I hope we BOTH have an easy day!

:hug:

[lady raven]

61. Good morning to all of you!

And now I have to go to bed! So good morning AND goodnight!

[Clintmax]

63. Good morning and Good night, Herekitty!

:hi:
Come back next time and stay a while!

[lady raven]

100. Thank you, Clintmax!

[Callalily]

89. Good morning Clint!

You certainly seem chipper this morning. I think I'm truly getting sick. Was feeling gawd awful last night and can't take off any days this week. Far too many projects with real deadlines. I'm waiting for information from others in order to get my part done. That's so frustrating because my stuff is ready to go. ugh!

Sorry to have missed you yesterday. I didn't do much posting, too busy.

Like your song selection this morning.

[Clintmax]

91. Morning, SimplyF!

:hi::hug:
It's good to see you today! I'm sorry to hear you're not feeling well, especially since you have so much going on. Hopefully everyone you need information from will come through today so you can get finished up! Yesterday was an EXTREMELY early day for me since I had to be to work at 6am, so a LOT of people missed me. Don't feel bad.

I have to go get ready for work now too, so I'll see you in the morning, my dear!

[Clintmax]

92. Time to go get ready for work!

I hope everyone has a great day today and I'll see you tomorrow! :bounce:

Clint

[newyawker99]

96. Good morning DU!!

:donut:


:hi:

[Wetzelbill]

98. I was specifically looking for this thread

Yes, I am making another early morning appearance, my rare one when I actually woke up early as opposed to staying up all night. :)

Doing some laundry, preparing for a test later on this afternoon. And, thinking about kicking back and reading a book called: "Beyond Glory: Joe Louis vs Max Schmeling and a World on the Brink." Boxing and foreign policy. Good combination. :)

[bigwillq]

99. Hi Clint!

:hi:

[Cannikin]

101. Hi bigwill! Hi Clint!
