Anybody else, like, ALIVE tonight?
Give me some indication, please. I'm in buttfuck, Maine, and the house is deadly silent, the heart is cold and the stomach growls. Hey you! Heartbeat?

1. My heart stopped beating four years ago.
Edited on Sun May-03-09 12:38 AM by Lucian
I'm awake if that's what you're asking...

2. No.
I'm curious about who has survived. The dead walk, or so they say.

How did your heart stop beating?

3. ...and kicking.
It's cold, rainy and windy outside. I got back from a baseball game not long ago and I'm winding down. :hi:

Unless you need it in your area. Good to see you! :hi:

7. It sort of comes with the neighborhood.
Rain is fine, it's the cold wind I can do without.

Good to see you as well. :pals:

17. It was gorgeous yesterday.
The mountains were beautiful off in the distance.

Yes, I'm in the Seattle area - out in the 'burbs.

I'd KILL to live in Seattle.

22. Definitely!
I would like to go out more, but dining alone is best done at home.

It would be great to have another friend in town.

27. My sister!
My youngest sister and her husband, the live in town. Walter does the weather for the local Fox network (he's Democrat!). They complain about having lots of acquaintances and no friends. I know the feeling.

29. Ah, KCPQ....a friend of a friend used to work there.
I mostly just know the people from work. Making new friends is not easy for an introvert like me...

32. Fear not; I wasn't going to try to set you up.
I'm like you. It's just nice to know I have ties in the area. Walter's been trying to get another job for ages but the market is tough.

34. Oh...I wasn't worried that's what your plan was.
It is nice that you have ties in the area. Gives you a reason to visit and say hi. We can have an introvert's dinner at one of Seattle's finest establishments. :)

42. Finest doesn't necessarily equal expensive.
The Crab Pot right down on the water isn't expensive at all, but it sure is yummy.

If not, then no. :P Plus, would your heart really be beating?

9. My dear crim son!
I am indeed alive...

But let me check my pulse....BRB...OK! I have a pulse!

I've been cleaning up my computer area and ordering clothes on the phone, and like that...

How are you tonight, besides hungry and empty-hearted?

Sweetie!

10. I'm plowing through about a metric ton of study objectives, and I'm listening to a CD
of Haydn's last five symphonies. That's the bad and the good right there. That's life. I'm alive. :-)

Don't feel bad; next Friday, you and I are gonna set the place on fire! :toast::beer:

30. Not that fizzgig is a candidate (she's in love & all that)
but I have better luck with women than men. It's my stern demeanor and masculine build, I guess. Or maybe it's that I kiss them. :P

16. I'm not sure.
I keep telling my son to turn the Wii off and go to bed, and yet he's still awake. It's possible I've died and this is some strange new form of afterlife where I'm aware but unable to react with the world, and he just can't hear me. I mean, surely he wouldn't ignore me and just keep playing Lego Star Wars, right? ;)

31. He finally gave up and went upstairs.
I told him that if I had to get up and turn the Wii off I wasn't going to wait to give him time to save. That worked like a charm.

Is he your only child? Yes, I think. He's cute and I suspect, pure evil, like my Henry. He's probably a tad more clever, though. :D

You need beer, not coffee. Of course my judgement is probably affected by my listening to Mika's "Big Girls." It bends the brain.

57. You must be hurting something awful...
:rofl:

"buttfuck, Maine"

:spray:

I'm in "12% APR, Minnesota" myself... two new Macs (24" iMac and 15" Macbook Pro). It started for school reasons (what with focusing on professional graphic design and all) and I've grown to love them. And increase my love/loathe of Vista; there are differences and I can't deny that despite Vista 64-bit's weaknesses I miss its strengths, but I always have a spare licence and VMWare if I feel so inclined.
