Good Tuesday Morning, Everyone!

[Clintmax]

:donut::hi:
How the heck are you today? I hope you had a good nights sleep! Captain Clintmax of the Early Morning Crew here with you now and we're going to start this Tuesday morning with a great song, perfect for any morning as we watch the sun come up with a cup of coffee in our hands! Here's Al Jarreau, with "Mornin'"!

(cue music)
"Mornin, mister radio...Mornin, little cheerios...Mornin, sister oreo..."

[ScreamingMeemie]

1. Good morning Clintmax!

I stayed here too late, but ah well. Sleep schedule is messed up with the colds and sinus infections running through our house...but, that's small potatoes compared to watching a beautiful sunrise with you! :hi:

[Clintmax]

6. Morning, MrsG!

:hi:
What a nice thing to say! :loveya: I love spending my mornings here with you too! I'm sorry you've got some colds and things taking residence at your house. Hopefully, they will go away at once!

[Mutley]

2. Morning Clint!

Coffees brewing, never heard that song, gotta go to Delaware today x(

[Clintmax]

7. Hello, Miss Mutley!

:loveya::hi:
Why are ya going to Delaware? If you subscribe to Rhapsody, you should pull "Mornin'" up and give it a listen!

[Mutley]

10. License plate stickers.

We got my car in my stepmother's name because my credit was too screwy for me to get a car loan. The stickers expired three days ago (ooops!) so I have to go to the DMV.

I have limewire, so I'll download it from there. :D

Did you see Brokeback Mountain yesterday?

:loveya:

[Clintmax]

12. Damned DMV...

:rofl:
I hate going to that place. Luckily, Florida has online plate renewal, so all I have to do is go to the website, key the payment, and they send me the renewal sticker in the mail, so I don't have to step one foot in that place! :bounce:

No, I didn't get to go see it yet...I'm thinking tomorrow now. I'm off work, so I can go to a matinee and not spend so much money.

[Mutley]

15. Maryland has that, too.

But not Delaware, NOOOO! They have to do it the old fashioned way. x( I must get on my parents about switching the car in my name. My credit is pretty much repaired, we just haven't gotten around to it. The good thing, though, I get to have lunch with my Daddy. :bounce:

I was thinking of seeing it today, but I realized that aobut the sticker, so I'll have to see it tomorrow, or this weekend.

[Clintmax]

16. Some states are just behind the times, I guess.

x(
I'm going to try to go tomorrow, so if you do as well, we can discuss it here on Thursday!

[Mutley]

20. Yay!

I'll try to see it tomorrow, then. :D

[Clintmax]

24. Sweeeeet!

Are you going to take your SO with you or are you going alone? I wish we could go together, you and I.

[Mutley]

26. Me too.

Maybe the SO and I will see it. I'll see it by myself first.

He's not a big love story kinda guy, but if I like the movie enough I can harass him until he agrees to go see it with me. :evilgrin:

[Clintmax]

30. LOL!

Well...if you don't mind seeing a movie in the theater by yourself. I don't like to do that, myself.

[Mutley]

31. I don't know why but

I've always loved seeing movies by myself. My Dads the same way, so maybe I got it from him.

[Clintmax]

34. Well, if that's what you like, that's cool!

I've just always gone with someone. I can't wait to see this movie!

[Mutley]

36. Oh I know!

I love love stories anyway, but I've heard great things about this movie. :bounce:

[Clintmax]

38. So have I!

Plus, it's not often a movie like this with this subject matter comes along. :bounce:

[Mutley]

41. That's definately true!

It'll be nice when it's common enough that people just accept it without all the drama and controversy.

[Clintmax]

46. That's what I say!

People here in the US are such prudes. :rofl:

[Mutley]

57. They sure are!

:rofl: They need to learn to have a little fun. Or at least turn the other cheek as they are supposed to. :evilgrin:

[Clintmax]

58. Absolutely!

But we all know what hipocrites they all are.

*singing* "These arms will worship and adore you...these hands will love you every day...darlin the only guarantee I can make...these arms won't let your heart break..."

[Mutley]

64. Eh, screw 'em, though.

We don't need their stinkin' approval! :D

[Clintmax]

65. We sure don't!

Fuckers! :rofl:

[Mutley]

67. Heehee.

Fuckers is right.

:rofl:

[tjwmason]

3. Good morning Clint.

:hi:

Hope that all's well in your part of the world.

Life is basically good here - much better than yesterday that's for sure. :D

The wireless router arrived this morning - so Deo volente I'll be able to play on-line anywhere in the house with Mildred (my new lap-top) :bounce:

:hug:

[Clintmax]

8. Hello, TJ!

:hi::hug:
Everything's good here too! I have a wireless router also, so Greekspeak can use his laptop anywhere here in the apartment. Sometimes I wonder if slows down our connection, though. :shrug:

I'm glad that it's much better than yesterday for you, Man. :bounce:

[tjwmason]

13. Glad to hear that you're well.

I upgraded the broadband speed at the same time so hopefully all will be very jolly.

I'm looking forward to the summer - sitting in the garden :bounce:

Surprisingly I've yet to listen to music today - Radio3 woke me this morning, as always, but since getting to work I haven't yet felt the need to hide under my headphones.

[Clintmax]

17. I'm looking forward to Summer also...

I want to go to Orlando and spend a weekend in Universal Studios Theme Park! :bounce: I know I could any time this winter anyway...but the summer is when I'm used to doing stuff like that. I'm also looking forward to going back to Missouri to see my parents for a week!

[tjwmason]

27. Looking forward to summer?

But you haven't even had autumn, never mind winter. :grr:

[Clintmax]

29. LOL!

It doesn't get quite so warm here in Florida in the "winter" as it does in the Summer is all. I prefer the high 80's low 90's temps. :hug:

[tjwmason]

33. Those are very nice temperatures.

My only problem is that when they happen here in England, the whole country goes insane sartorially. I wouldn't mind if it was only the attractive men who started to walk around practically naked - but it's usually the others (horrifically bad of me I know); I'm pretty much the only person left still in jacket. :eyes:

[Clintmax]

35. That's another reason I like summer...

Tallahassee is where Florida State University is so we're overrun with college kids...and none of them, it seems, have any qualms about walking around half naked! :woohoo: :rofl:

Why, on earth, would you be wearing a jacket in the summer? Weirdo! :rofl::hug:

[tjwmason]

39. Always wear jacket.

I'm never seen out of the house without one.

Partially the aesthetic, but also I hate having things in my trouser pockets. The only way I can carry my wallet, keys, coins, mobile &c. is to wear a jacket.

But, yes, a definite wierdo. :hug:

[Clintmax]

47. I couldn't wear a jacket all summer.

I'd smother to DEATH! :rofl: Having things in my trouser pockets doesn't bother me. Cell, wallet, coins...all go in them. I have a belt clip made to hold my key ring, so they don't have to go into a pocket. I couldn't stand THAT. I'm a weirdo too. :hug:

[tjwmason]

52. To quote from the wonderful Noel Coward

"It's such a surprise for the Eastern eyes to see,
that though the English are effete, they're quite impervious to heat,"

I wore a jacket in Italy in August without trouble. I do tend towards linen in the summer months though.

[Clintmax]

56. Oh, well that may not be so bad then...

Here I was thinking of a lined winter jacket. :rofl:

[tjwmason]

59. Oh definitely not.

Even in a place with moderate temperatures like England, one does need to switch between summer and winter jackets. Though I do tend to wear the same things to work - but as I say impervious to heat.

[Clintmax]

62. Ok, I think we're on the same page here now!

Say...is Brokeback Mountain playing in England yet?

[tjwmason]

66. Yes.

I only realised when I saw it advertised on television a little while ago.

I may be seeing it this Friday. It got good reviews across the board here, and thankfully I've heard no the loony homophobic rants against it that you got in the U.S. - there certainly seems to be far more of a live and let live attitude over here.

I make it lunch-time now. :bounce:

[Clintmax]

68. Well have a good lunch, TJ!

I'm going to try to see it on Wednesday. I'll let you know. Talk to you tomorrow, Buddy!

[tjwmason]

69. Now that's what I call perfect timing.

You post this just as I come back on-line having eaten.

Everything is even better now - lunch always cheers me up. :bounce:

[Robeson]

4. Morning Clintmax. Thanks for the tunes!......

....:hi:

[Clintmax]

9. Morning, Robeson!

:hi:
You're welcome! Are you doing OK today?

[Robeson]

14. Yes, doing fine.....

...I chewed my realtors ass off on that house I had mentioned, and just today, another offer came in!....:woohoo:

[Clintmax]

18. LOL! Some people just need a good ass chewing!

Realtors are one of them! :rofl: :woohoo:about the offer too!

[NMMNG]

5. Good morning Clint!

I had a decent day's sleep yesterday, and am hoping to repeat it in a few hours. :boring:

How are you doing today? :bounce:

[Clintmax]

11. Morning, Miss Buffy!

I'm doing just fine! The power went out at some point yesterday and Greekspeak set the alarm clock wrong...for am instead of pm. I woke up anyway...but later than I would have liked. 5:30 to too damned late! x( Glad to hear you slept well! Hopefully...the same will be true today! :loveya:

[MissHoneychurch]

19. morning Clint

sorry if I talk while my mouth is full, not really polite. But I am so hungry today, I just had to start eating

[Clintmax]

22. Morning, Miss Honey!

:hi::hug:
That's perfectly fine, my dear! I'm happy to have you here with me, so you just sit there and eat and spend a little time with me!

[MissHoneychurch]

25. You know I do that with pleasure

you sip your coffee, I eat something ... like an old couple :hug:

[Clintmax]

28. I do too!

With pleasure! :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

32. how was your day yesterday?

any news about your cat and greenspeaks dog?

[Clintmax]

37. It was an OK day.

Nothing especially exciting happend. The two animals are doing just fine. Tony likes to chew...but he also likes to sleep with his head on my feet...like he's doing right this second. Bandit tolerates him. If he gets too close though, bandit slaps him away. :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

44. I am waiting for the day

when you tell me that they sleep together.

My aunt and uncle had a cockerspaniel when I was a kid. Then one day a cat came to them and the dog started to follow the cat and behave like one. For example trying to sleep curled up like a cat :rofl: Must have been a hilarious sight :rofl:

[Clintmax]

49. Yes, it must have been.

Tony is just a baby, so that may happen a little later...who knows. As much as he gets slapped by the cat, he may not get to that point. :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

53. well, Tony intruded Bandits teritory

no wonder he slaps him.

But I feel sorry for Tony. But also for Bandit. It is a lot of stress for a cat to suddenly not be the boss in the house anymore .... hold on, he still is :rofl:

[Clintmax]

55. LOL!

Yep, you got that right! :rofl: I'm hoping everything will change once Tony gets a little older.

[Heidi]

21. Mornin', sunshine!

:hug:

[Clintmax]

23. MISS HEIDI!

:hug::loveya::bounce:
Oh my goodness! I haven't talked to you in FOREVER! Good morning! I haven't talked to Wesley in a while either...I hope you two are doing good!

[Call Me Wesley]

40. Good morning, Clintmax!

:hi: Seems like I always miss your good morning threads lately. Must be the lunchtime here ...

We're doing fine here (still cold), and I'll have to do a little cleanup of my desk since I have a client coming later.

[Clintmax]

43. Hello, Wesley!

:hi:
I've been missing you, Man! I'm happy to see you today! The time differences between here and there are big, I know. Try to stay warm, my friend!

[Call Me Wesley]

61. Hot tea sometimes helps.

It's quite a time difference; I'll happen to live in your future. Want to know the upcoming lottery numbers? :rofl:

[Clintmax]

63. LOL! YES I do!

:rofl:
Boy, wouldn't THAT be the greatest thing ever, huh? I'd share the winnings with you!

[newyawker99]

42. Good morning everyone!

:donut: :hi:

[Clintmax]

45. Morning, Miss NewYawker!

:hi::hug:
Say...do you live in NYC or just in New York state?

[newyawker99]

48. I am in NYC!

:hi:

[Clintmax]

50. WOOHOO!

I've always wanted to visit there! Greekspeak has driven through NYC, but I've never been. Everything is seven times as big as life in NYC I hear! :hi:

[Callalily]

51. Morning Clint

Nice tune selection - thanks. I'm planning to see Brokeback Mountain this weekend too. Been hearing raves from everyone, so I'm anxious to see it. We're just waiting to see if it'll be in our area this weekend. New roster doesn't go up until Wednesday.
Wishing all a great Tuesday.
Gotta go grab that cuppa

[Clintmax]

54. Morning, SimplyF!

:hi:
Good to see you today! I'm really excited about seeing Brokeback! Like I told Miss Mutley...it's not often a movie with that kind of subject matter comes out. I hope it DOES open for you this weekend!

[MissHoneychurch]

60. Good morning SimplyF

:hi:

[Callalily]

70. Morning MissHoneychurch

How are things in your neck of the woods? Slow going into work this morning. We're experiencing freezing rain. Not a fun drive at all.

[MissHoneychurch]

71. we already have the freezing rain

this morning it was snowing, now it is raining. Good thing I don't have to drive here. Thank goodness for public transportation.

I am so glad today when my workday is over. I am not really in the mood to work. This morning I was almost constantly hungry (even though I ate) and now I am tired. :shrug: Must be the weather

[Callalily]

72. I can totally relate

about the eating part. I'm sending you some Hopefully it'll help.

[MissHoneychurch]

73. thank you, I need that

half an hour to go. Should be makable :)

[southlandshari]

74. Good morning, Clint!

:hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

75. Good morning, my dear Clintmax!

I'm up waaaay earlier than is normal for me.....Guess I had enough sleep!

The sun is just now coming up here in California, and the sky is very pretty.......

Hope your day will be wonderful!

:loveya: :hug:
