DUers not going out tonight - check in!!

[Deja Q]

I'm not.

Long afternoon at the stores... need a drink but don't dig the bars. If only I had a TARDIS, but they really don't exist, you know... :D

[timber84]

1. Chillin at home with the family.

[Whoa_Nelly]

2. Howdy!

Am in for the night

The world is safe.....for a while BWAHAHAHAHAH!

[SeattleGirl]

3. Been working all day, and doing some cleaning to, so I'm for

being at home. Even though I work at home, it's still work. NOW I'm ready to kick back and relax!

[Redstone]

4. I'm just hanging round the house.

[lizziegrace]

6. Wow

you really get around! The floor is beautiful!!

[Redstone]

10. I designed that floor. Oak and cherry. Makes me feel good when

someone comments on it, and EVERYONE who visits the house for the first time says something.

Thanks, LG.

15. It is, truly, beautiful.

:envious:

[Redstone]

23. That's funny. It was a crew of Brazilian guys who installed it.

Really.

Redstone

[Laelth]

24. Hehe ... how ironic?

Well, looks like they did a good job.

-Laelth

[Redstone]

29. You ever want hardwood floors installed, find Brazilians. They are both

fast and meticulous, which you don't often find together. At least our crew was.

34. We have hardwood downstairs.

It's cheap though--oak that was given a dark stain, like a cherry, and then given a clear finish. Mexicans did ours, I think. Nothing wrong with their work, ultimately, but we were in a hurry to move in. It was during the Summer, and the floor needed about 3 more coats of clear finish to be really nice. Of course, in humid GA it takes about a week for a coat of clear finish to dry (no joke), and we couldn't wait long enough to get the floors done right.

12. Photoshop? Or a fancy camera;

the type that won't do an automatic shutter-advance, complete with covering parts of the lens so you can do multiple shots and make it look like you're in 5 places at once?

I'm thinking the latter... unless you took multiple separate shots and then made that little montage via Photoshop. :evilgrin:

[u4ic]

33. Which one is the priest?

:7

Beautiful home!

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

5. Went out during the afternoon to a show. Crappy weather, staying in to

DU and computer game! Yay!

My beloved Maryland Terrapins not only didn't make it into the NCAA hoops tourney, but they were ousted from the lowly NIT tournament by MANHATTAN, in most ignominious fashion, while I watched in horror, working out in the gym earlier today. :cry:

[Laelth]

7. Me, sadly.

Just finished day 2 of a 4-day mediation course. I have to be up and in class by 8:30 AM tomorrow. No fun for me tonight.

:(

-Laelth

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

11. I thought it was "meditation". Yours sounds like less fun!

[Laelth]

13. Less fun, yes.

But I suspect mediation will pay better (once I complete the course and get registered to do it). ;)

-Laelth

[Ron Mexico]

8. Me, too.

My wife is giggling at a South Park episode and we really can't afford to go out more than once a week. Last night was our allowance for the week.

[lizziegrace]

9. Me too

but this Saturday's different. My daughter's home on break. :)

[EstimatedProphet]

14. Right here-video night tonight

We watched A History of Violence and Balde Trinity, now fixing to watch Hotel Rwanda

[no name no slogan]

16. Taking it easy

...and waiting for a phonecall from a certain woman from NC.

[leftofthedial]

17. nobody loves me. I'm a big loser.

I mean, except for my wonderful daughters and my best buddy Chai, the knuckleheaded husky dog.

I'm off in a minute to pick up #1 daughter from friend's house and then we'll all be watching Firefly episodes until we can't stand it anymore.

[salin]

18. Just ignore me

and my pity party... I hit a fairly big mile marker (four years + and 35,000 posts) spent a while constructing a post that tried to capture highlights of the DU over that time... in an attempt to celebrate with folks... and it is ignored by most... :shrug: not sure why I bothered... *sigh*

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

22. I just read it! Nicely done!

[salin]

31. thanks...

but tonight I wonder if perhaps I really no longer have a place at the lounge... long time in the coming... changing dynamics and all - which is all cool... just perhaps the time to recognize that when even friends ignore a heartfelt reminiscent post/thread - that perhaps no one is listening ... and one sided conversation seems rather pointless.

Thanks for the comp - it is appreciated. Have relished this place a long time. Just starting to recognize that perhaps this portion of the DU is no longer a place where I fit in... again cool - places grow and change, which is healthy... sometimes perhaps it takes wisdom to realize when the changes no longer allow a fit for one - but does allow a fit for many others ... growing pains and all...

Or perhaps laments from exhaustion and deadlines that I have spent the day trying proscrastinating (though I have worked for weeks on them hence the exhaustion) :shrug:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

19. Me.

[aQuArius]

20. Too much RAIN outside Brrrrr....

Who wants to keep me warm???

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

21. Me, too. Just lying on the couch in a pile of cats, watching TV.

My feet hurt; I did the Minneapolis antiwar march this afternoon. A good turnout, but my couch-potatoish carcass is suffering from having walked 4 miles, when normally I don't move around much.

[devilgrrl]

25. Had to work today... missed the peace rally :-(

Haven't heard of anything happening, so I guess I'm staying. I'll probably go to work tomorrow too. :shrug:

[RevCheesehead]

26. I had to give up Saturday nights years ago.

I learned that I don't really do my best on Sunday morning when I'm out on a date on Saturday until 2 a.m. Go figure. :shrug:

[LeftyMom]

27. Count me in

I have nothing to do this evening but keep an eye on LeftyKid, clean house and DU as time allows. That's a fairly typical Saturday night here at Casa de Lefty.

[eyepaddle]

28. My Spring Break is drawing to a close, and I have slacked

mightily (if such a feat is possible) I'm doing homework....Sigh.

I however can't really complain, I've definitely gottne my mileage out of Saturday nights in years past.

[Random_Australian]

30. its 3.00 the next day here, (well quarter to), but

I'll be around.

[u4ic]

32. I was supposed to go to a gathering

but we had a heavy snowfall last night, and this morning...the roads are crazy, even buses are getting stranded in the streets.

My snowbank is taller than my car. A neighbour was digging out, and it was up to his shoulder. (and he's not a short man)

I was so looking forward to going out... x(

[REP]

35. Terrible Sinus Infection and Loved One Has To Work All Weekend

So I'm staying home. Well, I went out this afternoon, but basically, I'm home this weekend, which is weird.

[Katherine Brengle]

36. Check! I am cleaning my living room and watching a movie :). ALONE.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

37. I'm staying in........I always do on Saturday nights......

And I'm watching my thread die a slow death.....*sigh* :cry:

[ScreamingMeemie]

38. Me. Our big "night out" was a party for a 7 year old nephew that concluded

with my son being sick. :( :hi:
