Mundane participation for the tragically bored.

Cool one, especially paired with that avatar.

Finally have something on besides my jammy clothes.

wearing: Black denim jeans, over black boots (non-descript), deep v-necked black slip-on top and my favorite oversized black blazer. Last week, I picked up his really cute necklace, that went great -- a strand of black and amber shimmery beads come around the neck and join at antique "beads" (for lack of a better word). At the antique bead, three skinny lengths of assorted black and amber swoosh down to a rather large antique-looking metal thingy, with lovely mixtures of black and gold rhinestones. I have these unrelated, but sparkly amber drop earrings, and felt smurfy adding them. EhBeth and soz inspired me to put some clothes on.
hearing: If You Could Read My Mind.....Gordon Lightfoot (The feeling's gone, and he just can't get it back.)

feeling: pleasantly tired but it's been a good day
wanting:fun and some good laughs tomorrow

That might make a good tagline!

I like the description of what you were inspired to put on.

My hair's is very layered. The longest bits at the back are about hmmmmmm <feeling my back> 4" below collar level. It was an engineering marvel to make all of those lengths work - but it worked! and without shellac

I've always liked the way a French braid looks...when OTHER people do them. My attempts always look like the setting of a recent catfight.

<heh...it might make good tagline>

I guess I will have to do A2K when I'm in clothes. My first four or so entries were in the same jammies.

Soz-- thanks for asking about my cat-- he has found a neighbor who feeds him three times a day, so he will not return home. <grr> The little blighter suns in the backyard, looking all cute and huggable, but won't let me near him. I miss him!

My hair's is


oooooooooh when I'm tired, I'm very tired

Oh, that's not fair, cyphercat's cat!

Can ya talk to the neighbor about stopping the feeding thing?

Q: If you could live forever, would you and why?
A: I would not live forever, because we should not live forever, because if we were supposed to live forever, then we would live forever, but we cannot live forever, which is why I would not live forever.(Heather Whitestone, Miss America 1995)

Whenever I watch TV and see those poor starving kids all over the world, I can't help but cry. I mean, I'd love to be skinny like that, but not with all those flies and death and stuff. (Mariah Carey)

Smoking kills. If you're killed, you've lost a very
important part of your life, (Brooke Shields, during an interview to become spokesperson for federal anti-smoking campaign)

I've never had major knee surgery on any other part of my body.(Winston Bennett, University of Kentucky basketball forward)

I'm not going to have some reporters pawing through our papers. We are the President.
(Hillary Clinton commenting on the release of subpoenaed documents)

That lowdown scoundrel deserves to be kicked to death by a jackass, and I'm just the one to do it.

It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it. (Al Gore)

We've got to pause and ask ourselves: How much

Misattribution on the impurities one, that was Dan Quayle.

wearing: happen to be wearing the same stuff as a while ago when i also posted, so aint gonna repeat
hearing: the chatter of other patrons, the greatest-hits/golden-oldies radio mercifully turned to rather low volume
eating: nought, but i had a brownie earlier. coulda been better tho
drinking: water. a latte macchiato earlier
doing: getting frustrated trying to access some sites (of my holland council for example, cos i want to find out how i can get to vote from her for the elections in march), and getting timed out; opening news links to read/summarise/email-to-myself-if-interesting for work website; checking email; answering this thread
looking forward to: errr ... a good nights sleep would be nice!
feeling: ohkay
wanting: hugs & kisses

Sorry, but the first one is a Dubya quote, and the second is a made-up quote that originated as a joke about how Dan Quayle speaks. Check Snopes.

Edit: I just saw Soz's post...oops! I thought that was a GWB quote, but either way it's definitely not an Al Gore quote. Say what you like, but the man does know about the environment and he wouldn't have said that!

Thanks for the info... however, it doesn't matter to me which one said what - I also heard that Mariah Carey one was made up... tsk.. tsk... I'll have to stop circulating it.

Funny stuff tho. (I thought that was GWB too, when I looked it up it was Quayle, but that was just going by Google hits and this stuff takes on a life of its own...)
