And I can party all night; I'm just more the worse for wear in the mornings these days. I've got a few weeks to get back in shape for the big weekend; anyone up for practicing a few times between now and early June?? :D

The old guy from the party flight says sure. But not this Friday as I have to be around stick in the mud types and play photographer.

I can't believe it's raining, again! :rolleyes:

Hopefully it won't be raining tomorrow while I'm driving to VA!

No, you were the second oldest Box denizen on the Party Flight.

Sure, but with the exception of the guy in 12C who kep looking over at rolov and me building towers of minis and :rolleyes:ing at us I don't really think that there was anyone other than our crew on the plane. :D :p

In other news, I listened to Airborne Toxic Event last night on my drive home, after we talked about them in the box the other day. I have to say, giving the album a third pass, I now really like (most of) it.

Me!

I knew I was tired on the flight so that explains why I thought I saw others on the flight.

So when are you going to set up the orchestra DO for us?

Is someone hinting that we need a little culture? :D

I'm still trying to figure out where I've heard one of their songs before. I thought it was one TV show since that would have been perfect for it but it wasn't.

Thanks for any advice. I am sure my tardiness with her gift will be remedied when the gift arrives.

I prefer cheaper watches. I usually buy the men's Timex watch because it has a large face (don't need my glasses to see it) and the watch doesn't cause me to break out. I seem to react to the metal on most other brands.

I have had my current watch for almost 4 years and have only replaced the battery once. Best $30 I've ever spent.

Taunting about receiving the EUA isn't cool, although I'm not sure how much one could complain with a seat in an exit row and a fistful of drink chits.

There are a few songs on it that I like too now they have been brought to my attention the other night.

Other than Sometime Around Midnight, my votes go to:

Wishing Well
Gasoline
Innocence
Missy

I think I've been out of college longer than you've been alive. :rolleyes: :D

What's this battery replacing you talk about? Having a Seiko Kinetic has it's advantages. If anyone wants to to know when to buy watches it's the Father Day sales. That's when all watches, men and women, go on sale. And yes places like Penny's and Sears do have some good normal watches.

You share the same birthday as one of my more favorite ex's (boyfriend, not husband).

No EUA for me. I was #18 or something on the list

Or some of us just skipped it altogether.
