Capt. Sterling Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 procrastinating "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell...

Ransom Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 Ooooo, he said that "P" word. I am always a victim of that cursed "P" word. Drat. Why do you think I'm currently on the Pub, instead of prepping a room in order to paint? ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Roberts Posted August 3, 2008 Posted August 3, 2008 Things Sterling would hang a man fer... Wine, women, coin n song. Equal shares of each says I!
Hester Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 Oh, Roberts! You sexy rogue -- Right now, I'm just waiting for my software to finish ripping a DVD.
Ransom Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 Getting ready to fix a late lunch, and a nice refreshing Pimm's. (Hester, go read a few days back in the "What are you drinking" thread. I have left you some praise. Sorta LOL ) ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Hester Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 It's Pimm's o'clock, Ransom! Oh wait, no it's only 10 a.m. ... But then again, as my mother says, "It's noon somewhere!" No, I am not actually drinking Pimm's at the moment. I'm waiting for my computer to finish ripping a DVD to my new terabyte. And contemplating going upstairs to watch the opening ceremonies of the Olympics.
Silkie McDonough Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Running around like a fool. Why you ask? Every year in August I go to the Philadelphia Folk Festival. One friend who now has a RV gave his 20 x 20 canopy to my camp mate and I. There are no trees on the camp grounds so it is necessary to camp under a canopy. I keep the canopy in my basement and pull it out once a year. This Sunday we have to set up the camp site. I went to the basement to take inventory & be sure that we have all the partsy. We don't! Last year we loaded all the parts into a third friends trailer. That friend lives about 6 hours away from me and about 3 from my camp mate ...in the wrong direction. Additionally that friend left for his place sometime yesterday morning and is not coming to join us. As luck would have it one of our camp neighbors will not be setting up this year and we can borrow from her. Phew ...but now I have to make an hour drive in rush hour traffic to the place where the neighbor has things stored ...after my doctors appointment this afternoon. *sigh* ...can't believe I messed up like this ...thank goodness we have an alternative. Other wise we will be baking for sure.
Ransom Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Ooo, scorched seal. NOT GOOD! Hope you have a great time, but I do hope you find some portable shade. As for me, alas, I have procrastinated long enough, and tomorrow will be starting the paint job on the bedroom. I have a love/hate relationship with house painting. I hate to paint, but love the end result. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Silkie McDonough Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 I love to paint I hate to prep and clean for the job.

Other wise we will be baking for sure. So ...I drove the hour to the camp neighbors house and got what we needed, visited for a few hours and drove home. I went to the basement for some unknown reason to re-inventory what I had there. I turned around and there hidden in the corner of the basement were the missing poles ...and under a tarp was the box with the connectors in it. So all that running earlier ...not needed. Now I feel the fool. Hmmm ...should this be posted in "How do you feel?"?
BriarRose Kildare Posted August 9, 2008 Posted August 9, 2008 Watchin' the openin' to the Olympics. The Olympics have always been important to my family. When I was younger we would sit and watch the games and competitions. Happy Memories. Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all. The Dimension of Time is only a doorway to open. A Time Traveler I am and a Lover of Delights whatever they may be. There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls.
Ransom Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 Today.....painting the bedroom. On the wall right now is the tinted primer, ready for the Claret Red finish. Unfortunately, the tinted primer is exactly the same color of pink as Pepto Bismol. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Silkie McDonough Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 Hoping that I just have an eye irritation and that it isn't conjunctivitis.
The Doctor Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 Trying to write, and getting nowhere fast. Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
Hester Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Trying to salvage a video file that bloody Windows Movie Maker has corrupted all to shite. I need better software!
Hester Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Waiting for YouTube to process the video that I mentioned above. I was able to salvage it, but it was a technical nightmare! I kept having to "trick" the software into doing things it didn't want to do. Took forever!
BriarRose Kildare Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Just got the wee lad settled down from a bad dream. And now I be watchin' a documentary on me cousin's Frank and Jessie James Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all.

Christine Posted August 22, 2008 Author Posted August 22, 2008 Watching the end of the POTC: Curse of the Black Pearl. It's weird to see the first one, it's like a separate movie from the other 2.

Red Cat Jenny Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 So cool! I am wondering how I'm still up. Worked till 10 last night, got home at 11:30 sleep at 12:00 up at 4:30 work at 5:45 to 2pm and then the gym then out to dinner with Mom and its now..10:37pm.... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.... Her reputation was her livelihood. I'm a pirate, love. By nature and by choice! My inner voice sometimes has an accent! My wont? A delicious rip in time...
BlackSwanRogue Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 Oh, there is just sooo many things to do in the night. Like the Black Swan, I am Nocturnal, Ageless and Eternal.
