A beautiful, sunny day off. Put the beanbags out on the terrace. Kicked back. Listened to Howard Stern. Watched Survivor. Cleaned-up. Did the dishes. Relaxed in peace and quiet. Answered email. Surfed the Net. Got in touch with my ex to make sure she knew NIN tix were going on sale today. Called my parents.

Life is good.

How was your day? Tell us about a day you really enjoyed.

i'm leaving work in an hour to put on my Sister stuff and go to SDSU to talk to kids about Gay Rights and Equailty. I love talking to the kiddies.

"Put the beanbags out on the terrace".....that's a metaphor for something isn't it?





Glad you had a good day Ace.... my day started shitty....but who knows...it may improve or go all to hell...that's the excitement of it...you just never know which way it is gonna go....

No, this was not a "dogs in the tub"-type situation.

Ace said:

Any day at work is a day I'm not particularly enjoying - at least at the moment. I hope to salvage it with cocktails after work.

Do you ever work?

JustErin said:

Just six days/wk. for a decade.

One of my best days ever was a day I had in Paris. My sweetie and I split up for the day - he went golfing, I went fabric shopping. The weather was perfect...and I found two fabulous fabric stores - one in Montmartre.

Sweetie and I met back at the hotel and got ready to go out. We had an amazing three-hour dinner at Spoon Food and Wine (Alain Ducasse's fusion restaurant off the Champs Elysees), then rode the ferris wheel and went to the Buddha Bar for a drink. After we got back to the hotel, thunderstorms moved in - so we listened to the rain on the window all night.

Of course, the day before that, we had ice cream at Berthillon, lunch at a great little café and went out to Versailles - which was also pretty spectacular.

Any day I spend with him is good.

the day i spent in paris was pretty fucking surrealistically amazing. my first day in london too, but in a different way.

That's awesome ACE. I'm at work but I had a great lunch with a co-worker. It's beautiful out today. Sunny.

Ace said:

Good for you Ace. I hope you have a relaxing weekend as well.

I think I'll be okay. I mean, I trust Natalie with the immunity necklace.

Ace said:

an entire decade of work! My god!

ace, do you listen to mastertape theatre on Fridays as well?? I like the old shows, but I wish they'd find something else to fill the friday slot...

and what about Bubba, do you ever listen to his show??

NDRU said:

Uh, no. I worked a six-day week for a decade (ending only recently). Five-day for the rest.

roodboi said:

I listen to MTT occasionally, but I, too, would prefer something else (bring back The Friday Show! ).

Don't care for Bubba. You?

Ace said:

gotcha, but if you'd only worked a decade that would have been fine, too.

Ace said:

yeah, I'm a Bubba fan from way back, I'm afraid...just goes to show how trashy I am...

bringing back the Friday show in some form would be welcomed, I think...they should let JD have a show...

Here lemme save ya the time:

"Uh..I don't know. I don't know. ...uh...it's just...it's just... I don't know, okay?!"

I say let him co-host Straight Talk with John the Stutterer.

pardonme4livin said:

Aww poor Forrest

roodboi said:

Agreed. Mastertape Theatre seems like a good idea in theory, but I never really enjoy it, especially the really old ones they've been playing lately. I'd rather hear repeats of this week's show.

My day has been good today! The sun is out, it's nice and warm! The weekend is looking good! So all is great in the world.

But the happiest day of my life...would be the birth of my 3 kids...and April 2, 2008 when I became a Memaw!!!!

Twiki said:

I like the old shows-because there are some classics-but for the most part, they pale in comparison to the new ones...

My day is mehhhh so far - kissed the boy goodbye, laundry, snacking, I'll Wii/Tivo later & hopefully hang some pictures in this dump...

Did Artie ever come back to the show??

roodboi said:

Mastertape Theater? Is that old Stern shows? I haven't listened since the switch to Serius.

I never liked the reruns that much though, because so much of what they said was in reference to something going on at that time. So hearing them talk about Benifer just isn't interesting (it was barely interesting at the time!)

Ace said:

My day was the opposite of yours, but at least I've still above the dirt.

how is the weather.....










up on cloud 9

mine apart from my wedding day, and the birth of my son

was mothers day 2004

my then 5 yr old son, came into my bedroom, and proceeded to dump a whole bunch of balloons on my bed.

inside each balloon, was a chocolate toffee, and a little cardboard love-heart telling me why he loves me

all his own idea !!

well, he got it from a tv show (and daddy had to help a little -under instruction:smile:)


i had to explain the concept of "happy tears" that day
