Good morning Lounge

[MissHoneychurch]

How are you today?

So I watched Countdown with KO on my iPod this morning on my way to work. First thing on the show was the speech by *. I tried to watch it, honestly, but I couldn't. I could not stand to watch and listen to that man. I am sooooo glad that he will be gone next Tuesday. It will be such a big relief. The world has America back.

Picture of the Day

[Richard Steele]

1. Good night, MissHoneychurch!

I'm just going to bed. I get to sleep in late tomorrow,
since I don't have to be at work until mid-afternoon.
And better yet: it's payday! :party:

Life is good.

Richard

[MissHoneychurch]

2. Good night

sweet dreams and don't forget to cuddle with that kittycat of yours :)

[Tom Kitten]

3. Hello and Good Morning

I didn't watch Bush's speech either.. nothing he could say that would sway the facts of life that we are a once great nation facing ruination... Frankly I despise him and maybe he should consider moving to Alaska...Grrrr!

[MissHoneychurch]

6. Ohh ....

that would be an idea. Then he and Palin can watch Russia from there :D

I watched the first seconds and then said "Hell no" and pushed the ff button.

[Robeson]

4. Hey MissHoneychurch!...

...So good to see you! I hope everything is going well in your life. Obviously, I miss our talks...:-(

I'm counting down the hours until Tuesday. No way I could watch that asshole tonight. I haven't watched him in eight years, so why start now?

Lovely to see you again, my friend!

:pals: :loveya:

[MissHoneychurch]

5. Hey Robeson!!!

So good to see you too!!!

I am doing fine. Just moved into a condo I bought last week. So I am still busy unpacking. How is your life going? I miss our talks as well. Please give my regards to MrsRobeson.

I was hoping KO would break it down and make comments about it. But he let it run the whole time :scared:

:loveya: :hug: :hi:

[Robeson]

7. You've got your own condo now?....

...cool. You are officially a homeowner! I hope you like your new home. One day, I hope we can return the favor and visit you.

I'll give Mrs Robeson your regards.

[MissHoneychurch]

8. Yes, I bought it end of last year

here are some pics

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=8408252&mesg_id=8408252

I would love to welcome you here. Also, when I come to TN again I would love to see you again too. :hug:

[XemaSab]

9. Why are you posting a picture of a hammer and sickle?

Is it some sort of cold war relic?

:hide:

[MissHoneychurch]

10. It is old Europe

ya know :D

[XemaSab]

11. .

;)

[orleans]

12. join the club. no one watched that fucking liar.

i ran for the remote and quick turned on comedy central--daily show rerun. i checked back to olberman at quarter after the hour and poof! the fuckhead was gone. keith said the "speech" was 13 minutes long.

good morning. it's freezing here, temp is twenty below and wind chills are far worse. how's it by you?

[MissHoneychurch]

13. Isn't it great to know

that starting Tuesday he won't pop up anymore on TV to give speeches and press conferences? And in case he does no one will give a shit?

Weather here is calm. Temps around 30.

[orleans]

14. yes, it's great to know tuesday is almost here

it's crazy but i can hardly believe it

it's as if, deep down, i have finally resigned myself to thinking that prick is gonna be around f.o.r.e.v.e.r.

a thirty degree temp sounds balmy.

lucky you.

[XemaSab]

20. My mon was saying that today

Like, when she heard about the plane "accident" she wondered if it was a MIHOP excuse for martial law. And she's not a conspiracy freak either. :scared:

Edit: before the details were out, of course.

[Guava Jelly]

15. Happy Friday MissH

I can't wait for that turd to be gone myself..
C'mon Tuesday

[MissHoneychurch]

16. Good morning GoP

Happy Friday to you too!!!

Will you party next Tuesday? At what time does the Inauguration start? Maybe I get a chance to watch some of it on CNN.

[Guava Jelly]

17. I will definitely party

I'm not sure exactly when it starts.
But I will find out.
I'm sure cnn or cspan will cover it.

[MissHoneychurch]

18. Don't have cspan here

just CNN International

[malta blue]

19. Good morning MissH!!!

It is soooo cold here!!! Right now it is -5 :scared:

I don't think I can get out of bed.

Have a great day!

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

21. Good morning malta

aren't you already out of bed when you post?? :)

:hug:

[malta blue]

22. Not since I bought an itouch!

;)

[MissHoneychurch]

23. Ahhhhh

that explains a lot :) So that means you are still in your pj's lounging in your bed while I am *ahem* laboring away at work :rofl:

[malta blue]

24. Well, since I can't DU at work anymore...

I wish I could have bought an iPhone but I would have had fees,etc.

I just let the dogs out :wow: it is freezing out there!!!!

I actually had to push them out but then poor Zeus just laid down on the snow and started yelping, poor baby!!!! I had to go out there and get him :(

[MissHoneychurch]

26. I don't envy you

DU is helping me through some quiet days at work and when I am not in the mood to work :hide:

Brrr .... it is the weather when even the doggies prefer to stay inside ....

[malta blue]

28. I am going to stay home.

I just can't get out of bed...

[MissHoneychurch]

29. Good decision

:D

Did you send Little MB to school already?

[malta blue]

33. Not yet, but she is getting a extra hour of sleep

She must go since they are administering those damned standardized tests and today is the last day. Otherwise I would keep her home.

I will drive her even though school is basically next door - it is THAT cold!

[MissHoneychurch]

34. So you will get out of bed after all

:D

... sorry for teasing you. I can't imagine how cold it is. It was cold enough for me when we had 5F here. I picked the coldest winter in decades to move :crazy:

[malta blue]

36. I will get out of bed for one hour!

Just long enough to make her breakfast and get her to school. Then I will bring the laptop upstairs and hibernate :D

[MissHoneychurch]

37. LOL

I love your thinking. Don't forget the hot chocolate and a good book or movie :D

I bet Little MB is complaining that she has to go to school while you stay home :)

[malta blue]

38. She is one bitter Betty right now....

she is BEGGING to stay home - saying she doesn't want me to be lonely.

I hated to tell her that grown-up sometimes LIKE to be alone :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

39. Cute reason she gave

:rofl:


I would hate my mom too if she did that to me :P

[Callalily]

25. Morning MissH!

Slept in a bit this morning. Couldn't sleep last night, so got a lot of reading done.

I'm curious who really did watch * last night. Not me! I put a few logs in the fireplace, DVD in the player, and snuggled in for the night.

Temps are still wicked this morning. It's -18F with a chill factor of -35. Huh . . . and I thought yesterday was cold.

It's supposed to start warming up, but then when that happens, it snows. Just can't win. :rofl:

:hug: :hi: :loveya:


p.s. great pic!

[MissHoneychurch]

27. Good morning Simply

I fell asleep on the couch last night and decided to go to bed. Was in bed at 10pm and couldn't fall asleep :eyes:

What DVD did you watch?

Just got back from my lunchbreak. Had to get my right heel put back on my boots because it fell off while walking outside just when we got out ....

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[Callalily]

30. I often do that. Fall asleep on

the couch. It's nice and comfy and cozy.

I watched "Talk to Her" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk_to_Her Although it won many awards, I give it only a three.

The other night I watched "Cries and Whispers". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cries_and_Whispers I did not like it at all. Oh well . . .

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

31. Hmmm

both good film makers. But I haven't watched either movie.

:hug:

[Callalily]

32. As you can see, I'm into

foreign films again. I do wish though, that when they sub-title a film they would take readability into account. Many times the subtitles are white and "over" the scene, and very hard to read. I guess when watching foreign films at home, the pause button works well, at least it does for me.

Gotta go eat breakfast and get ready for work.

If I can't get back here, I wish you a great day and a wonderful weekend.

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

35. Nothing to say against it

I mainly watch foreign movies .... American :rofl:

I wish you a great day and fantatstic weekend too.

:hug: :loveya:

[AirmensMom]

Good afternoon, MissHC.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Can't blame you ... I can't watch him either. :puke:


Just popping in for a minute. My workers are already here. I was up until 2:00AM doing "homework" and I just got up 20 minutes ago. Got anything for a major headache? x(

[MissHoneychurch]

41. Good morning AirmensMom

started to worry where you are. But that explains it.

:hug: :loveya: :hi:

Hmmmm .... a lot to drink, an asprin or two and crawling back underneath the covers .... :hug:

[AirmensMom]

40. Dupe ...

:blush:

[SalmonChantedEvening]

42. Good Morning MissHoneychurch :)

At work.

Cold. Send Cocoa.

:hi: :hug: :loveya: :pals:

Have a great day!!

[MissHoneychurch]

43. Good morning Salmon

:hi:


Here ya go




:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[kentauros]

44. 'Mornin' MissHoneychurch

:)

Is that pic of the big Euro like the Enron pre-cursor to European economic collapse? :P

By the looks of the design, they can add more stars as more countries join up.

So how's things in your part of the world? Cold here (relatively so for the South) but it routinely warms up in the afternoons to something bearable :D

[MissHoneychurch]

45. Good morning

that big sign stands in Frankurt near the ECB.

I ment it as "old Europe" says hello and good-by to * :P

Temps are resonable again (around 30F) since some days. I can deal with that. And it starts to get lighter in the mornings again so that I don't go and leave work while it is dark.

:hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

46. Good morning...

I'm off to drive BabyG to school. :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

47. Good morning MrsGrumpy

aren't you glad you moved South before the big cold?

:hug: :hi: :loveya:

[ScreamingMeemie]

50. So very, very glad.

:loveya:

Although, it's "chilly" for Houston this AM. :)

[MissHoneychurch]

62. You better not complain about the heat in the summer

:rofl:

Same weather for me, just the size of my place changed.

:loveya:

[ScreamingMeemie]

70. I purposely visited in August last year to make sure I could take

the heat. They were making fun of me for not coming inside into the A/C. :rofl:

How are you liking the new place?

[MissHoneychurch]

72. Oh, that was a good idea

I remember one time I visited Monroe, LA in July. I was at the point of melting. I felt sticky everytime I went outside.

So far I love it. Especially after we renewed the parquet floors. And it is so big. I have to walk quite some more :rofl:

[clyrc]

48. Hi MissHoneychurch!

I came to the lounge to give my 2 cents on Slumdog Millionaire, saw your thread and had to say Hi! I'm dieting and exercising, trying to keep off the diabetes that plagues my family, but on the 20th it's a no diet, celebration day and I'm planning on making lots of good stuff to eat. It has been relatively cool and rainy here in Arabia, perfect walking weather.

[MissHoneychurch]

49. Hey clyrc

good to see you.

Ah yes, those stupid pounds. I need to diet too or do some exercise. But I am a pretty lazy person when it comes to that.

Will you cook American dishes or Arabian dishes?

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[clyrc]

52. Tex-mex, actually

Fajitas, guacamole, salsa, bean dip. Lime pie and cookies. I am drooling just thinking about it!

Oh and last summer you certainly didn't look like you needed to lose weight!

[MissHoneychurch]

55. Ok, I'm drooling now too

:)

I gained some pounds again since then. Too much for my taste. Oh well, I need to dicipline myself ... oh btw, could you please eat a piece of that pie for me? Key lime pie is pretty much my favorite pie :9 (see how I gain weight? :rofl: )

[Inchworm]

51. G'morning Miss H

I'm glad the time has come for dumbass to be gone as well. It's been a long 8 years.

Things are just c.o.l.d here. My puppy made it to the end of the porch and did a U-turn back in house :D

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

56. I honestly believe

the world would be a better place with Presidente Al Gore.

WOW, your puppy was brave :)

:hi:

[blueraven95]

53. Good Afternoon!

sorry I'm late today.


I had to go to dinner with work last night (and I will again tonight). The food was better than I had been lead to expect, and the talk after dinner was interesting. It was one of the professor's birthday, so the other faculty embarrassed him, which was amusing.

Tonight should be similar.

How's your day going?

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

57. Good morning blueraven

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Figured you were busy with you telling me yesterday you have today another 15 hour work day.
Is the dinner part of that long work day?

My day so far goes well. Had another text message exchange with the moving guy (I started this one) and he is going to call me tonight again.

Work day is almost over. And also the week :) Not that I have fun tasks this weekend with cleaning the old apartmen but that shouldn't take too long (thank goodness for my iPod). Then it is back to the new one and continuing unpacking there while I play some nice music.

:hi:

[blueraven95]

58. yep. It's busy.

Dinner is part of the work. They are definitely feeding us a lot.

This guy sounds really promising. You'll have to let me know how things go. :hug:


I personally really like putting on big band music when I'm cleaning - the beat seems to keep me going. :shrug:

[MissHoneychurch]

61. Then that long work day isn't as bad

and you get fed ... big plus :D

I'll let you know. It sure starts promising. But I thought so so often already ... I need to be careful.

I will put some up-beat music in the CD player for sure. Or turn on my favorite radio station. I admit I love R&B and HipHop, so I have a good choice of up-beat music :)

[blueraven95]

64. yeah,

I fully admit that I am a weirdo who really likes music that is not of my generation at all. :D


Do be careful. There's no reason to get hurt this early in the game.

[MissHoneychurch]

65. I love classical music as well

especially operas.

Oh ... and the 80s :rofl:

I try to be careful. It is hard but I have good friends online and in RL who help me and keep me on the floor. :hug:

[blueraven95]

66. who doesn't love 80s music?

As far as I'm concerned, they must not have souls. :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

67. ROFL

you got that right :rofl:

I mean every now and then I go to 80s parties. The house rocks every time and is absoultely stuffed with people :D

[blueraven95]

68. exactly...

did you see the movie "Music and Lyrics"? It's got some great 80s(to 90s)-esque music (and music videos).

[MissHoneychurch]

69. No, I haven't

but who knows what it is called in Germany. Last movie I watched was "Bienvenue chez les Ch'tis"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bienvenue_chez_les_Ch%27tis

[blueraven95]

71. How was it?

it seems like almost nothing European opens here, which is a real shame because I really like European films. They are so different from American films, while sharing a lot of stylistic themes. :-(

In case you can't tell, I'm kind of a film nerd.

[MissHoneychurch]

73. It was funny

and romantic. I am sure the French original is even better. But it is best if you understand what they are talking (kinda ... I had troubles understanding the "German" :rofl: )

Maybe you have a chance of renting it? At Blockbusters? Tell them to get it for you :)

[blueraven95]

74. I'll try Netflix

they are usually pretty good with hard to find things. :)



I better run, things are getting busier here. Have a good weekend :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

75. Have a great weekend too

:hug:

And have fun in DC if I don't see you Monday

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[BarenakedLady]

54. Morning.

I can't wait until he is gone too.

I'm ok today. A bit stressed, but ok.

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

59. Morning BNL

:hi: :hug:

How was your mediation appointment yesterday?

[Eurobabe]

60. Hey there! I wrote OBAMA on the back of my dirty car! LOL

I guess people get the picture. :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

63. ROFL

You have to take a pic of that :rofl:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

76. Hey You!! Are you still on here?

Either I need to stay up later or get up earlier :crazy:

:loveya: :hug: :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

77. I am still here

but not for very much longer.

I miss talking to you :hug:

:hug: :loveya: :hi:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

78. Great!! I miss you, too. I read the threads every day. Love the pic.

Can you believe one of my cats stayed out all night last night. Shocco just now came in, like it was not big deal :crazy:

Must be the fur coat :silly:

Shiloh did not come in until 5am this morning and he immediatley curled up in bed with me :D

[MissHoneychurch]

79. I guess it isn't as cold where you are

as it is up north :)

Kitties wanna have fun too .... I bet Shocco found himself a nice spot to sleep or he was hunting all night long.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

82. I sometimes wonder if my two have a tag team going on with the

wild woodland creatures out there :)

How is work? Are you getting settled into your ne place? Have you cooked a meal?

[MissHoneychurch]

84. You better ask them

maybe they will tell ya :)

Work was busy this week. A lot of books came on my desk as a department is clearing out its shelves. It will continue next week. At least some books that were missing showed up.

Love my new place. Getting used to it. Still a lot of boxes to unpack but I get an idea where to put everything. I have especially in the bedroom a lot of storing space for everything.

When my mom and her bf were here to help me last week we cooked more than one meal. One day we had a Sauce Bolognese simmering on the stove while painting the condo.

Now I am leaving into my weekend. I wish you a wonderful weekend!

:loveya: :hug: :hi:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

86. Good bye Dear One...

Have a good weekend and see you Monday (hopefully) :hug:

[bigwillq]

80. Good morning!

I am well. Just lounging around for now before I have to go to work later.

Enjoy your day!

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

81. Good morning bigwillq

I am about to leave work :D

:hi:

[bigwillq]

83. Oh you Germans!

Always trying to one-up us Amerikans!! ha ha :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

85. We are bad, aren't we?

How dare we to be 6 hours ahead of you :rofl:

Have a great weekend!!

:hi:

[bigwillq]

87. Same to you!

I am working Saturday but off Sunday. We are supposed to get some more snow on Sunday here in CT! :mad: I hate snow. The cold I can deal with but snow stinks!
