They are lacquered red and the flat of the upper end is lacquered black. The lower half is lacquered matté and the upper half is lacquered shiny.

For me friday's the start of the weekend, really :P

Intrepid Homoludens 04-20-2006 02:54 PM

Thoughts: You know, it's really funny watching some of these gay guys walking in and out of the cafe. They got nice bodies and all, but why the hell do they swish? They walk like they're massaging a tennis ball between their buttocks or something. I mean, they don't seem to walk normal or something. It's actually kinda, I dunno, unattractive.....like the top half of them are men but the bottom half move like women. But then when women walk like that it seems natural, like they were born with tennis balls between their buttocks. I dunno. Maybe I should ask Scottsie.

Melanie68 04-20-2006 03:24 PM

Location: Office at school (and my messy desk)

Weather: The last 3 days have had very blue skies and upper 60's (fahrenheit) - this is a relief after buckets and buckets of rain (cue Bob Dylan).

Activity: Just got done assisting with a Freshman renal physiology lab and I will be heading in to the research lab to finish an experiment in about 15 minutes and I am obviously reading the forums.

Apparel: Faded Levis, a button down sage green shirt with vertical stripes and black slip on shoes with my lab keys hooked to my belt loop (must complete the ensemble).

State of mind: Tired (and hungry too...)

Mood: Has been vacillating today between OK to blah (probably due to the fact I'm tired).

Thoughts: Please for the love of God, let my negative controls actually be negative. :)

Thoughts: These guys are just trying to get your attention the best they know how, trepsie :P

pinkgothic 04-20-2006 03:32 PM

Ooh, it's like a poll! *obsessivecompulsivereply*

Location: In bed beside BoyToy, with my laptop, and the TV on for BoyToy.

Weather: Night time. :9

Activity: AG forum, waiting for my co-gamemaster in Crimson Feather to discuss the upcoming Oddworld simulation.

Apparel: A black leggings and black socks. And underwear. Also black, if you must know. No shirt, because having the laptop on my lap makes it warm in this corner.

State of mind/Mood: tired, but content. It was a long day, it was hard work, but I'm glad what I have achieved. At peace.

Thoughts: I can sleep without being bothered by a damn alarm clock tomorrow, holy wow. Thank god. I so need that. -- I wonder if the schedule I made myself recently illustrates reality properly enough, or if I'm in for an endlessly stressful semester. Again. I would like the holidays I never had, but then, that's my own fault, really, though it depends on one's perspective. It's something I had little to no chance doing in parallel to any of the previous semesters that I did over the course of my entire holidays - so I would have, I guess, only have been able to sacrafice an earlier time slot, not really avoided the problem of desperately needing a set of holidays. Now or earlier, does it matter? Not really. -- Is that the only gripe I have? Man, I'm lucky.

:shifty: Eiw. Let's just say that I operate on another frequency entirely. One without any tennis balls at all.

tabacco 04-20-2006 05:01 PM

Location: At my desk.

Weather: Pretty darn sunny out.

Activity: Reading the forums, upgrading phpadsnew, eating leftover hawaiian pizza, drinking a dr. pepper, and watching the muppet show.

Apparel: A flying spaghetti monster t-shirt and shorts.

State of mind/Mood: Extremely tired.

Thoughts: I really wish I didn't have an 80 mile drive ahead of me tonight.

Sage 04-20-2006 07:08 PM

Location My kitchen, facing the living room.

Weather 66 degrees F/19 degrees C. It came a fairly serious thunderstorm earlier, but it's slacked off to just rain now.

Activity Seeing what everyone's up to at AG.com, halfway watching "Roseanne" on TV, and waiting for the food to arrive. Oops, now "Mad About You" is on. Blech! What does she see in him? Channel surfing for a bit, stopped on "The Food Network"- Guy with glasses extolling the virtues of different varieties of cornmeal...might be interesting. At least he knows the difference between dry polenta and grits.

Apparel Black OCC T-shirt and blue jeans. No shoes.

State of mind/Mood Ravenously hungry. Missing "Beau"...a lot.

Thoughts My next vacation isn't until June. :frown:

Huz 04-20-2006 07:09 PM

Location! At home. Well, I say home. It's more of a room. In front of the computer. I suppose the last part is redundant.

Weather! Raining. Obviously. Fairly mild.

Activity! Staring at C++ I am heartily sick of, while listening to excessively loud music in an attempt to keep me awake. Also in the staying-awake arsenal this evening:
* A wet, death-defying 3am walk through the city! Where do all the tramps go at night? No really, I want to know.
* An entire bag of Fruit Pastilles
* Drinking heavily :shifty:
None of it has really worked.

Apparel! Standard-o black sweater and jeans. However, my ambition is now to own a flying spaghetti monster T-shirt.

State of mind! Mentally drained, and that odd bored-while-busy feeling.

Thoughts! I wish I were more self-motivated.

Alton Brown, possibly?

Maybe. Whoever the guy is, he always goes really in-depth with one ingredient per show and prepares several recipes using that ingredient. He's generally worth watching, and is not above using costumes and special effects to make a point.
