The person below me

[theCryptofishist]

I wish. One would be nice. I envy my niece for having enough German to translate instructions and enough Russian to dream of a permanent position translating that!
tpbm also knows the sting of envy over a generational divide.

[shroom]

not really
TPBM is tired of everything being pumpkin flavored already.

[southern crone]

Yes I am. I like sweet potato pie over pumpkin.

TPBM is wishing for a Volkswagen Vanagon camper.

[Elorrum]

nope, but I wouldn't rip the pink slip up if I suddenly owned one.

tpbm is trying to make the transition from setting a tent up when camping, to just parking, and sleeping comfortably in their vehicle/rig.

[BeeWeeDee]

Actually yes. Year one (airmatress). Year two (camp cot) Year three (same camp cot with bent out of shape legs and a sagging problem). Really thinking of an enclosed space with a real matress.

tpbm had a fabulous time at the SF Decomp today.

[theCryptofishist]

Nope. I might have gone, but I didn't have the good chair. After sitting in the back up for merely half the day, my butt is sore.
tpbm's butt is sore from a good spanking.

[southern crone]

No, but from sitting on an old wooden bench. Went to an old fashion "Dinner on the Ground". The church is way back in the woods and a one room building. Built in the 1800's. No air, fans, etc. It is in the area where my grandmother's family grew up. Service is held there once a year. Food was wonderful.

TPBM has been to an old fashion "Dinner on the Ground".

[gaminwench]

Yes. Many times.

TPBM grew up with a corporal punishment system.

[theCryptofishist]

No.
tpbm grew up in a family syndrome.

[shroom]

hmm.....if that means with a crazy family, then yes
TPBM did something exciting this weekend

[Eric]

Stayed at home. Very unusual for me.


tpbm has an "embarrassing" favorite TV show

[theCryptofishist]

Since having an "embarrassing" tv show would imply that a) I subscribe to some sort of bourgious (I swear to god this is so poorly spelled that all the spellcheck can give me is "gibbous", truly, wtf) code of what is and is not seemly and b) that I watch tv, no.
TPBM thinks the code of chivalry is almost as outdated as the code of the bourgeoisie.

[Eric]

Chivalry never existed, except as an ideal. It was D.O.A.


tpbm thinks that's sad

[TomServo]

I think its a sign of the times..I would do anything for Marisa..almost....but a lot of folks just don't give a shit about relationships....or honor...whichever your taking about..

TPBM is going to the library to find a book by Bakunin.

[theCryptofishist]

No. I tried reading anarchists when I was younger, but it was too abstract. Wait! Did he write the thing about the Cossacks? I think that might have been Kropotkin...
tpbm is going to the library to check out a book on Moholy-Nagy, cause, face it, that's a cool name.

[ranger magnum]

I haven't been to a library since I discovered google...

Tpbm saw the eclipse today

[Thecatman]

I saw the lunar one a few weeks ago, and the total solar a few years ago. The day before it took place I drove up to UNR and bought those special glasses


TPBM watched or plans to watch a college football game today

[Ratty]

No. Sadly I have no cable tv. I don't miss it at all.
TPBM wears a wrist watch every waking hour.

[theCryptofishist]

No. I use what god gave us--a cell phone.
tpbm used to write for a singles magazine.

[Savannah]

No, but in college I actually used to locate the most entertaining personal ads I could find in the backpages of the alternative weeklies (the anonymous kind, only a few sentences long; "New Yorker seeks Goat for Good Times, No Smokers" that sort of thing) and email my favorites to friends as a sort of monthly digest.

The person below me has made cookies for breakfast before.

[tamarakay]

Well yes, I have been pregnant three times.

Tpbm is also thinking what in the heck do the pittsburg steelers uniform people have against their own players.

[tattoogoddess]

Nah, not really. I don't watch sports. Not my cup of tea unless it's the iowa vs Iowa State game. We are a divided house and a lot if trash talking (it's out of love)

Tpbm hates serger sewing machines.

( I got pretty injured by one the other night and spent time in the ER)

[Thecatman]

Tpbm is also thinking what in the heck do the pittsburg steelers uniform people have against their own players.

They kinda look like bumblebees





Sorry to hear about you getting hurt TG, but I don't know how to sew
TPBM has fallen asleep at their computer desk

[ranger magnum]

No, but I used to fall asleep in my second period class in high school.

Tpbm has a degree of some sort

[southern crone]

Yes, and "some sort", sums it up nicely.

TPBM has had a near death experience or out of body trip.

[TomServo]

I was in a Coma for 3 days..and don't remember a thing...except 10 minutes before the accident.

TPBM is an Edward Gorey fan.

[theCryptofishist]

Now. Chas Addams is a god, but there was something too ... something... for me about Gorey.
tpbm is a Leslie Christian Gore fan. (ha! does anyone here even know who Christian Gore is?)

[tattoogoddess]

ya?

TPBM misses saved by the bell.

[lucky420]

Mmmm some, no not really. My kids do a little I think

Tpbm wants more sexy time

[shroom]

yes
tpbm is pondering the ebola mania
