ARGH! I missed seeing that because I went on to post about ExLax in the weight loss thread.

My stats show me at 5.99 posts per day. Sigh. I hate fractions. And percentages.
Closing day is 3 weeks from yesterday. :) :) :) :) I'd love to move 3 weeks from today, just to get out of the noisy apartment. Went to measure for appliances today and also took more pictures (see Facebook). The owner has already fixed over half the items on the repair list. Electrical and windows still to be done.
The weather was beautiful, the company was great, but the golf was ... sort of ugly today. :p But tomorrow is another opportunity to play perfect golf! :cool::D
Damn. I tried to give you a legit excuse. Run with it! :D
Sneaking up on 12000. wow.
Ugh...after last night's turn of events, not sure if I'm in a PW'ing mood.
Happy Palm Sunday. My son is being confirmed this morning at church.
I'm in Vegas now. Had a great 4 hr drive yesterday- made excellent time & no traffic! Plus, Chloe did great!!!
Current tally: -$40. :( (Texas Station, where we had dinner)
I can't stand the pressure any more - I've been trying to think of something profound for Post #2000 but it just isn't working. Thought about waiting to time it with post 12,000 in the LTE but afraid I'll just miss that mile market when I leave work to go to a wedding shower.
So for post #2,000 - it snowed this morning during our Palm Sunday Passion story. Looked out the sanctuary windows during the second service to see snow coming down. Many of the participants in the service came in shorts and sandals today as we were dressing in robes/biblical era outfits.
Snow ended and none stuck on the ground by the time the service was over.
I have an idea for #12,000 if y'all would indulge me for a short paragraph or two.;)
I will
...offer to
...assist in
...helping you
...get there. :)
Ready. Set. Go.
To CB&B-not a problem. I fell asleep about 515 PM for a well-deserved nap. Actually, for those that know me, I LOVE naps and ANY nap is well-deserved:D.
I just woke up to check the STATUS (as always, the STATUS is: go to hell, carolina, go to hell:D). I also know the old phrase, you snooze, you ...:(
I'll simply post #12,001 or 12,002 to take the opportunity to thank all the participants of the DVR LTE (I corrected it on the card;)) and Brunchgate gang who were kind, thoughtful, generous, loving and sympathetic enough to arrange to have a beautiful and extremely large spray of flowers delivered to my Dad's visitation and funeral last week. I also posted a similar message on an old Brunchgate thread but, just in case there are any folks who might not read both, I wanted to thank all of those posters here, too. My Dad was HUGE Duke fan and to remember him with such a display rendered me stunned, nearly speechless and sobbing just before the visitation began. Y'all are special and the wonderful community created here is not just for a small selected group but for all those who participate to inform, entertain, discuss, chide, chat and hopefully support each other with our experiences. I must move on to a weeks worth of mail, newspapers and business matters of the household and my profession this evening. Plus, the teardrops falling are interfering with my vision and the keyboard. A sincere thank you once again.
Don't look now, but the John Wall recruitment thread has almost as many views as the LET with barely over 1000 posts, vs. our now over 12,000 posts. Don't these people know what's important? :p;)

I now begin my official transition from college basketball to baseball. Tonight's game doesn't count...
Go Sox!!!!
And Spartans!!!
My good friend, former roommate, and Michigan State alumna/Big fan is at the Final Four. Root the Spartans on to victory, Donna!
To do a screen shot and save it, hit <control> and <print screen> together. Then open a program such as paint, or even Word, and paste it (<control V>) at the cursor and save it either as a jpg or whatever type of file you want. I find that for copying the post header and number of posts, status, etc., that I can just highlight the text and copy it <control C> to the clipboard and then paste <control V> it into my post.
Here, as an example, is this posts header info:

I'm still at work but I just took a look at the score - ugly!:eek:
I'm now 2009 ACC Champs!
Ozzie - I tried your instructions but am being technologically challenged tonight. :confused: If someone else could add the 2009 ACC Champs! screenshot to the Whatever thread, it would be most appreciated. :)
Ozzie mouthpiece here: Ozzie not posting again until his electrical power is restored. I gave him an update on the msu-unc game. Now, not only does he not have power, he had to go outdoors to get over the profound nausea, vomiting and intense headache that has suddenly stricken him.:(

Thanks DD. I got power back at 11:18 p.m. and there was 7:28 left in the game. MSU had gotten the deficit down to 15, but alas, they had no Jason Williams to orchestrate a miracle comeback this night.
I have a headache. A squinty headache. :(
Edit: 1992 NCAA Champs! With a headache.
An official day of morning in the woven household.
13 hours between posts? WT...? :D
Lots of secrets here these days...
Hmmm...it may not be so secret
Tick ... tick ... tick ...
Will the last poster in the LTE please turn out the lights? :(
Here's an idea: since it's Easter, the mods could kill LTE tomorrow, have everyone go into conniptions, and then bring it back in all its glory on Sunday. Think of the theological implications...
Nahhh... :eek:
I'm back in LA. I wanna go back to Vegas. NOW. Sigh. :(
I'm home.
I don't wanna go to work.
I like my job.
I just hate to work.
(sigh)
At least folks are well-rested here-12 hours between posts overnight.:eek:
I slept in, got my haircut, shopped, and picked up a pizza for dinner. Nice day. :)
PSA - have you filed your income taxes? Tax day is coming. :eek:
Good Morning, LTE. It's a bright sunny day outside. I hope it is where you are also.
However, I'm telling myself that it is cold, wet, and nasty outside and I'm fortunate to be indoors. :D
I think I have a woodpecker in my chimney. Either that or he is drilling on the metal cap at the top. At least I finally figured out where the strange noise was coming from.
Have a great day.
stuck in the hospital covering the cardiology service, waiting for the nurses to get two stress tests ready, then maybe...MAYBE...I can go home...
I have been lazy. No posting practically anywhere for me lately. I don't know why.
I've stopped at three former Duke basketball players signing Duke Blue paper for the run. I have Kenny Dennard, Gene Banks, and Tommy Amaker. I've also got a whole bunch of names I'm writing on my shirt proper, kids I'm running for and adults I'm honoring. I need a Duke Blue Sharpie. I also haven't cut my fingernails in a couple of months. I'm a dragon lady. Last year I painted the nails red, white, and blue. This year, just Duke Blue.
I mailed a copy of my Duke-Carolina play to Coach K on a whim. Thought he might need a little reading material for the off season.
And yes, I know, I could have made three posts out of this, but I didn't. Too lazy to wait the 60 seconds.
:D #9 Duke just defeated #1 Virginia in men's lacrosse. I wish I had been home so I could have watched the game on ESPN.:eek:
Way to go Blue Devils! :D:D
I was in CT today...
I saw Avenue Q today. Laughed so hard I cried. The guy next to me laughed once. What a tool.
--------it was ugly out there. At least for me. I'm sure others at the table were smiling inside.
Bobby Flay is doing a Matzo Ball soup Throwdown on the Food Network.
It's been a good day - I only went into work for 2 hours and refuse to feel guilty about only 2 hours, had dinner with family and friends, and am going to be in bed before midnight. :D
I hope everyone else had a good day, too.
Ymo-please check your full PM box:o:eek:
Kayla (my lab) and I saw the beaver and two great blue herons this morning!
The beaver slapped its tail twice, which scared Kayla. She jumped and barked. The beaver can swim very fast.
A little further into our run we came upon a great blue heron in the lake. It took off when we got close. A second one also took flight. Those birds are huge.
Oh what a beautiful morning! :D
I just looked at the posting list and I'm within striking distance of DA. I feel a PW frenzy coming on!
DA has 3229. This is my 3216th! :cool:
I congratulate Angel Cabrera for winning the Masters yesterday. I though Kenny Perry was going to do it before he messed up 17 and 18.
I really like Sue71's new red leather jacket! :cool:
If it was a bit nicer out, I'd go play 9 holes this afternoon.
If the phone didn't ring I wouldn't miss the one minute posting window.
I'm really looking forward to the spring football game on Saturday!
And Vinnie Rey leading the defense should be awe inspiring! Shock and awe inspiring! ;)
OK, this one ties me with DA at 3229 posts!

I know we talk about it all the time around here, but think about it, there are more than 12,000 posts in this thread. It is kind of amazing, well, to me it is. Hey, have a great Reunion Weekend all you 4s and 9s!
I'm procrastinating from studying for my last test of the semster before finals.
This is probably not a good thing since I've been procrastinating all day already.
In my mind it's justified because my class voted to take the test tomorrow after Easter break rather than last week before break. Adding that extra week when we could have had it over and done with just makes procrastination inevitable.
Hey,
Check out 'Civony' on the front page of the DBR!! Whoo hoo! Let's get up a load of guys and go check her out. What a chick.
dth.
Is it just me or is the big new button to go to the first new post gone? It's back to the little check mark like button again.
I think it's just you, and Sue71 :D
Pork.
barbecue? rind? barrel? -y pig? dirty? chauvinist? ribs?
I'm happy to report that it is 10:25pm here and I have had several margaritas and a nap. It is a good night. And not a tax return in sight!
More important than the changing size of the new button - how did we lose a star in our rating?:eek:
