^ I've just found the Au Bon Pain thread you made.

That's great having a supportive boss who really likes you, very positive  :)



Thanks Babooshka. :)

You find out a person's true ID but it doesn't make you upset, but makes you happy.  :)

... something you've been hoping comes up in a conversation and it comes as a relief, but also a moment of trepidation.

DYLIW you see two good friends of yours for the first time in a couple months? :)

All the snow has melted. :)

That's good.How many feet of snow did you have? ???

You ask people to do something fun and they say yes!  (sometimes folks can really be such sticks in the mud!)

you get an unexpected box of chocolates

I'd certainly love that. ^-^

I also LIW I give chocolates to the girls I like. :)

your food comes and it's really good

You wake up and it has snowed like a but load and you know you are going to be late anyway so you go back to sleep for another half hour and nobody knows because you blamed it on the snow!  Whew, I'm out of breath!

That's good.How many feet of snow did you have? ???


more like around 5 inches at one point(I think), not too much, yet enough to make me mad. Most businesses in Indianapolis will not clear off their sidewalks(there is a law that they have to, but nobody complains), forcing people to walk in the street.

DYLW you go on vacation but DYLW you get home even more.  ;D ;D ;D

your birthday is coming up on Sunday

you feel like doing some good to get you out of a grumpy mood.

I like to do things to get myself out of a grumpy mood. :)

when you find someone attractive...and you never saw that in them before

You get something you want :)

DYLIW you go to e-bay and an auction is just about end and no one has bid-and you win it for the miminum bid.  ;D ;D

when you come in from the cold outside and the warm house smells of good food

that can get dangerous if you're married. :D

oh, of course...but I also mean when you think someone is as ordinary as the furniture and then this one thing just comes out in their face or their personality. 

when you find someone attractive...and you never saw that in them before

yeah :)

However, I've seen people who look attractive on the outside but are cold inside.

sounds like the other way around. I've met some folks who were attractive on the outside, but on the inside they were unkind people.

But I have met some folks who were the other way around. Doesn't matter what they look like; it's what's inside that counts. :)

Which courses are those for now? I hope you do well, too. Some of them I get through just fine, and others I have near Myocardial Infarction  ;D

Well, the courses that I'm taking at Cal State Northridge are Grammar (an upper-division English course) and World Geography (a lower-division geography course). Both of them are going quite well for me.

On the other hand, there have been some courses that have been a struggle for me. Anytime I have to write something big (like an essay), I feel I need extended time, since I usually write my best essays when I take my time and try not to rush. Last semester, both of the courses I had were like that.

Ohh, two fairly nice courses. I enjoy both of those topics. One of my co-workers is also taking geography this semester. I believe I'm done with my English courses for lower division. So what kind of stuff are you learning in Grammar?

Essays are definetly a struggle for me, too. On one hand, I feel fairly experienced to write them, but on the other hand I never know what the teacher is expecting as far as spelling, exact footnotes/citing procedures, and certain formats. So far, I've faired okay and haven't recieved any fair warnings with margin problems. But, it definetly can be a struggle - especially if a thesis drives the whole paper.

In the grammar class, we're learning about the study of word structure (known as morphology) and syntax (how words relate to each other and combine into phrases and sentences). Involves things like semantics.

I know; I've been writing them for years. With regards to spelling, that's usually not a problem for me. How I put together a paper, now that's a different story. That requires a lot of preparation and stuff. I had to write three of 'em last semester: two for history and one for literature. The one for my literature class had to be about a short story which we'd read and discussed in detail, and it only had to be three pages long (minimum).

There's no more snow. :)

So uhm... you have daylight savings time when we have our Standard time? I guess that would make sense, since you're in the Southern Hemisphere.

Cuz over here, in the United States, we turn our clocks ahead tonight and hence lose an hour tomorrow. :)

How are you enjoying your job?


I'm enjoying the job pretty much.  I get to be around pianos all day.  For me this is a good thing.  And people come in and play.  Most of them are very good.  Once in awhile you get a kid who wants to play chop sticks or "Heart 'n Soul" on every piano in the showroom -- that'll make you crazy!  Overall, I like it.

the recipe works out great!

(yum...spinach and ricotta tart!)

Surprise public holidays... ;)

And that's spose to be a good thing?

DYLIW something you say to someone FINALLY sinks in and they take the initiative to do something that you were planning on doing BEFORE you do it so you don't have to?  My younger brother cleaned out my parents' garage this weekend without anyone telling asking him to do it :o  I'm sure there's still stuff that needs to be gone through/thrown out, but it should be much less than there was before and it'll make MY job easier :)


Oh yes!  That is a rare and wonderful occurance.  Good for you!

When you show your love and sympathy towards someone you really care about.  :)

And that's spose to be a good thing?

Sure! If I like the music on it, which I do. ;) ::)

Yes it was.  (Shame it wasn't milk chocolate though!)

Don't look a mouth in the gift horse.  ;) ;D

I'll tell you something, a woman's work is never done.

You're finally through for the day. :P

DYLIW....you get something good to eat at the local health food coop.  Hmmm, coconut macaroons.  http://www.inthe00s.com/smile/01/1blue1.gif http://www.inthe00s.com/smile/01/1blue1.gif

Your Mother loves the gift you got her.  :)

...you've got nothing to do on a Saturday night and someone calls you unexpectedly and offers you free tickets to the theater!  :)

AND....when you get to spend a workday outside in the sun listening to your friends' bands play their music.  (It's been a good weekend).

Thanks to the Canadian Top 100 Charts, I've re-acquainted myself with over 2 dozen songs I have not heard in many many years  8)

You and your girlfriend have special feelings for each other.  :)

It fell out this morning so the tooth is being kept safe until tonight.  I'm a bit worried about this part actually.  The last few nights my daughter has woken up as we've being going to bed.  She's either sat up in bed when I looked in on her or I've heard her get up and go to the toilet just after I've got into bed.  :-\\

Do you have better dreams after taking wine?

Do you have better dreams after taking wine?


No.  Actually, I dream better without it.  Truth is, I just enjoy a glass of wine at the end of the day.

Yes Howard.  It helps me sleep  ;)


What flavor wine?

Red.  Syrah or Cabernet.

DYLIW....you buy a wine you've never had before and it is delicious!

it's the Memorial Day Weekend.  :)

...you finish your final exams.

I'm not quite finished, however. Next week I have finals in my courses at the community college, where I am taking my computer courses.

Someone says, "I think I found the perfect job for you!" -- and they might be right.

... you download a whole bunch of songs that work without errors
