So August is over...

[Zomby Woof]

Time for the holiday season to begin!

[Broken_Hero]

1. I just want summer over with

I cannot wait until fall...I have had enough sun to last me a lifetime..

[DainBramaged]

3. Booooo hisss, boo boo hiss hiss boo

[DainBramaged]

2. fuccccccck OhfccckaFccccccccccaccccccccck

The new Oldsmobiles are in early this year!

[RiffRandell]

4. Yay!!!!!!!

I hate this heat! I want Fall, dammit. I just ordered these cute ghosts for a lawn decoration. I want football!

[Broken_Hero]

6. college ball was on earlier tonight

:) NFL starts next week...:)

[mad-mommy]

8. I like your nick name

[Oeditpus Rex]

5. Time for pennant races, too

:woohoo: :bounce: :bounce: :woohoo:

[Zomby Woof]

7. NOW you're talking

A true BLUE Dodgers fan.

I hate when they have a night off. I need my fix! :D

[Oeditpus Rex]

10. I know

I listened to the Giants beat Atlanta and now I'm streaming Colorado and the Mets. Rox are ahead 8-4, of all things.

[Zomby Woof]

11. I predicted Colorado would slide

Although if the Mets are losing, that's a good thing.

[Oeditpus Rex]

19. It's a foregone conclusion, but

it's okay with me if the Mets win the East.

It's okay with me if anybody but Atlanta wins the East.

[Zomby Woof]

22. I definitely prefer the Mets over the Braves

And I am actually hoping the Reds get the wild card, because I know we can beat them, if we play.

[Oeditpus Rex]

27. I never assume that

Too many variables. Guys go into slumps, guys get hot.

I'm the "one game at a time" type, too. I'll think seriously about the DS when we clinch the West, then the CS, etc.

rrr says I'm a pessimist. She's wrong, of course.




:hide:

[Zomby Woof]

28. True about variables

But sometimes some patterns never break. I don't want to face the Padres, because they have owned us all year.

I could be wrong, but I am going with my gut here.

Whatever stops all those delusional NYC fans in both leagues. :D

[Oeditpus Rex]

32. I gotcha there

My gut would rather play Cincinnati too. Over five games, I'd be afraid of the MaxiPads' pitching.

Edit: Maybe more so now. Just heard the Pads got Wells back from the Sox.

[mad-mommy]

9. I thought I was going to see some fall foliage

[yellowdogintexas]

12. hey, this is one August I am not sad to see the last of.

bad grammar, but this has been a hell of a month, literally.

Hell wasn't hot enough so God had to make Texas, you know

[lost-in-nj]

13. I never made it "down the shore" this year

:(
where did my summer go???

lost

[SeattleGirl]

14. I am so looking forward to fall.

Nothing against the summer season; most of the time I like it. But I just want this one to be over. Do feel a nip of fall in the air here, even though it's hotting up for the weekend. Guess I'm just ready to move on.

[texanwitch]

15. I am counting down the hours until September the 1st.

We are having cooler weather here in Houston, so maybe fall is already here.

I hate summer.


Yea Fall.

[Kire]

17. Are you counting backwards?

Tee hee

[texanwitch]

20. It's the heat.

August was terrible.

With the heat index it was around 105 when I had powerwash and paint a house.

[Kire]

23. Sorry

I guess it is still august there. It's 12:15 in New Jersey. My bad.

[texanwitch]

24. I am in the Central Time Zone.

I have a cold bottle of beer ready to drink at midnight.:toast:

[graywarrior]

16. What heppened to the August Rapture?

[Zomby Woof]

25. Apparently...

It was August itself that was raptured. :-)

Leaving us to wrestle with September on our own!

[reyd reid reed]

18. GAH!!!!

Why, I oughta....

Why'd you hafta remind me?

:cry:

[u4ic]

21. Only 114 more days

to procrastinate about buying Xmas gifts!! :bounce:

[reyd reid reed]

33. SHHHHHHHHH!

Can't you see I'm in denial over here?





lalalalalalalalalalala fa lalalala la la la laaaaaa

Oh dear god...save me!!!

[Floogeldy]

26. Well, you obviously can read a calendar . . .

. . . But, when it comes to seasons, you are wholly confused.

:smoke:

[Roon]

29. YAAAAAAY!!!

halloween, thanksgiving, christmas, easter, :beer: load up, people!!!

[Roon]

30. Oooops!!

I forgot New years and the superbowl...load up, people :beer:

[Zomby Woof]

31. Don't forget Labor Day and New Year's!

:toast:

[Roon]

34. No doubt

I have been partying already tonight...so even though it's not officially labor day, it's spent with me.

[GOPisEvil]

35. I was in a major chain drug store this evening and saw Halloween candy

and decorations.

Yeah, like having that much candy in the house for that long is a good thing for me and my waist line. :P

[Roon]

36. Our trees have already started to turn

what makes the trees turn, is it the temperature change or the shift in the daylight hours?

[GOPisEvil]

38. Our leaves have turned too. From green to dead.

God, August sucks around here. It's probably my least favorite month, climatologically.

[Zomby Woof]

40. Here in CA

The palm trees are green.


And still green. :P

[GOPisEvil]

42. Yeah, well, if you hadn't talked me into this damn job...

...I might have moved already. :P

Although...there's talk of me handling large losses and litigated files in the near future. :shrug:

[Zomby Woof]

44. Fuck your employer!

:P

They better give you a raise to go with those files!

Or just go indie, dammit! Be a freewheelin' rollin' stone! A rollin' Cold Stone!

[GOPisEvil]

45. Actually...I did get ONE raise already...

I think I get another salary review at the new year.

Going indie is in the works, I think. I'm going to sign up for all the classes I can (that the company will pay for, of course), so I'll be even MORE employable. :7

[Zomby Woof]

48. I am starting the red tape...

...to be an independent contractor in the education field. Details later...

The L.A. Unified School District needs me. :patriot:

[GOPisEvil]

50. Oooh...interesting...

You'll have to tell me all about it.

Oh, I'm sure they need you and a lot more like you. :D

[Zomby Woof]

51. It'll be supplemental income at best

I used to be a teacher a lifetime ago. This will be a semi-return to my roots. :D

[GOPisEvil]

53. Any income is good these days.

We need more kids hearing the Troof, dammit!

[Zomby Woof]

37. You're behind!

The grocery stores here had Halloween candy on display in EARLY August. :wtf:

I think we should just blend all of the holidays into one 365 day mish-mash. :party:

[GOPisEvil]

39. Yeah, I ever really pay attention to any of that....

...I just happened to be looking for some candy tonight and thought we'd gone straight from August to October. :eyes:

What's the saying? Every day's a holiday? I like it. :7

[Zomby Woof]

41. Here's the catch

Every day you have to get me a gift.

[GOPisEvil]

43. I'll alternate sushi and Cold Stone!

[Zomby Woof]

46. I'll eat them at the same time!

Spicy Tuna and Cake Batter in a chocolate cone! :9

[GOPisEvil]

47. Oh my...

:puke:

[Zomby Woof]

49. Have you no sense of adventure?

Taste, you have. Adventure, not so much. :7

[GOPisEvil]

52. I just can't see ruining the perfection of each by combining them...

Yeah, that's it. :D

[Zomby Woof]

54. I guess I'll toss the idea of...

An Eel-Banana Split. :evilfrown:

[GOPisEvil]

55. Hrm...

...I'm thinking about a new sushi serving idea based on that though. :think:
