Not even close. I don't go to bed until 1am earliest. I love working at home...

I prefer to stay up later. As I've mentioned previously, although I enjoy sleeping, I have an aversion to bedtime. There's always more fun to be had!
And... I think I might be vaguely afraid that if I go to sleep, I'll never wake up (a fear that is essentially groundless, in my case).

TPBM thinks the feeling of drifting off to sleep is delicious, and s/he looks forward to bedtime all day.

Mostly because I always push past when I should go to bed and have to fight fatique during the day.

Not really. Regular apple juice upsets my tummy, although if I can get fresh cider, it is yum yum yummy!

TPBM likes blood orange juice, or tangerine juice, rather than plain OJ.

I've never tried those. They sound good, potentially.

I love fresh-squeezed orange juice (really fresh squeezed, not the cartons that say "fresh-squeezed"). I could rant for a really long time about store-bought orange juice and how it's just liquid orange-flavoured candy with a vitamin C pill, but that would be annoying. :wink: Oh, and to be fair, I love the candy stuff, too; I just don't drink it anymore.

TPBM thinks I'm alarmist.

Not at all- most mass-produced foods are basically candy with flavorings at this point.

Tri-tip? I have no idea what you're talking about. :(

So many possibilities....

15 metres of mint-green tulle and another 10 or so metres of some kind of teal blue shimmery tulle/chiffon fabric. what can't they do?

I own about 6 purses, but none of them are fancy-shmancy. I'm a jeans and t-shirt kinda gal!

I dunno; it seems like drunkenness is a prerequisite for solving crime, sometimes.

TPBM is going to leave work early today for an extra-long weekend.

I hope not. That would suggest some kind of disaster had happened.
TPBM can explain the mystery of how necklaces, laid out neatly in a box and left untouched for a few months, can end up so hopelessly entangled.

No, I think the brownies are much more inclined to pull such shenanigans.

Nope. My usual: Bran cereal, plain yogurt, fresh berries. Oh, and a pickle, just because.
My nutrition-conscientiousness starts high and goes downhill throughout the day. Right now, I'm on my third mojito. All that mint and lime makes it look like salad...

TPBM is envious of Canadians, because we can get real Cuban rum and cigars without hassle.
And I am envious of Americans, because you can buy liquor at the grocery store, like civilized modern folk.

Not at all! Don't smoke cigars...and if they're taxed like cigarettes in Canada..I'd stick with American anyways.

Since I don't smoke or drink, my answer would be no. But I do love Canadian peoples.
