so, the upgrade is coming soon...
 

what will you do while it's down? (I think it's Sunday, btw)


I have scheduled in:

Going to get a live Christmas tree. Decided to get one in a pot this year, which can stay in the garden the rest of the year. It's got to be more environmentally friendly. I'm going to get the kids to name it.

Might take the kids to a Dr Who exhibition at a Space Museum we have in this part of the world. That's got to be cool.

Also taking my son to a karate grading at some point.


Busy Sunday, huh?

I am likely to be going to watch my grandpa sing in an Orpheus (or something?). It's a bunch of "seasoned" men singing in a choir or what not. I went last spring and it was relatively enjoyable.

That's my big Sunday plans.

i'm taking my dog and my ex's new puppy (I'm dog-sitting) to the dog park. Maybe I'll go see a movie, watch some football, etc.

i don't even pay attention to these things anymore. it's like when your friends tell you they're gonna quit smoking. you just nod and go, "ok, good luck with that".

Crap. I was hoping this would be a ridiculous poll thread. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

DB - What is a good name for a Christmas tree?

Pryor - the upgrade is happening, this I am certain of. There is no going back, we are committed.


I plan on using Sunday to continue cleaning my house. I did my carpets last week. I am in the mood to throw out all my old clothes and shoes. Might get my hair cut too. I feel like I need a makeover.

Make a batch of Venison Chili

Watch as much football as possible.

I have a bunch of work to do outside. I have to get the snowplow ready to go and clean up the shop. It has gotten to be a mess.

I still have a couple of deer left to finish processing. All the meat is off of the bone and in containers in the basement fridge. I just need to cut steaks, run the rest of it through the meat grinder, package everything up and get it in the freezer.

I also have a dead tree I really need to get cut down sometime. Hate it when the damn beetles kill a tree. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

I might buy some venison to try at the weekend. Is it dear?



ok, I'll get me coat.

Good grief, you name your Christmas tree?

Well, if you get a pathetic looking one, it is traditional to reference Charlie Brown.

You're lucky that most of us yanks won't get this terrible joke.

"important: Forum will be down early Sunday morning through afternoon for software upgrade.
Please see this post for more details."


Well since I dont go to sleep until about 6 in the morning, I hope to only be minimally affected by the upgrade.

Re: so, the upgrade is coming soon...
 

Db,
I let my gf talk me into getting a Christmas tree in a pot one year. They weigh about a million lbs. And when you don't plant it, which you probably won't because you have to dig a crater the size of Texas, you're left with a dead, prickly pita to dispose of. You've been warned. Happy Holidays!

Re: so, the upgrade is coming soon...
 

I am copy/pasting all of The Lounge Short Stories and reading them tomorrow. It is like reading the forums, so I won't miss it.

Re: so, the upgrade is coming soon...
 

Great idea daveT. I hope more people do this. These stories are good and so very different. I've never really been into the short story format before but I have to say that this contest is inspiring me, mostly because of the different techniques that I'm seeing. Who knew there were so many ways to write a story!

Re: so, the upgrade is coming soon...
 

Football + homework.

Hell yeahz.

Re: so, the upgrade is coming soon...
 

I'm going to Vegas! Wish me luck.
