    Agh slept through the first alarm somehow (fairly loud alarm on my phone) and got up a half hour later than I anted to. Fortunately I had it set to "snooze " and if you leave it alone, it remembers to go off again until you click "OK" or manually tun it off.

    Still a little down in the gut myself. Need to get some ginger ale (or NA ginger beer) on the way to work. Unfortunately, the convenience store by the workplace only carries the HFCS versions so will have to go to the natural market near here I live to get the cane sugar variety which means having to leave a bit earlier than usual.

    I used to keep a bottle of Diet Canada Dry in the fridge all the time.. cut WAY down on my Tums consumption. Haven't seen any here in the Wild West, though. :long:

    Ginger beer though,, good idea! :cheese:

    I wonder if I can animate the Singers tentacles? Writing glowing tentacles of horrible sanity-draining death!! Woot! :snake:

    Morning. Sunshine, birdsong loud enough to drown out freeway traffic and a big bright blue sky that seems to go forever make for a relaxing start to the day :)

    I spotted a fluttering yellow-green canary playing on the hood of someone's car during lunch. I wanted to take a pic but I was worried that if I got any closer it would fly off.

    It would walk to the nose of the car and then slide off, only to fly back up and repeat. It was cute

    Boy was that a pain in the rear. I've been having issues with my LAMH where I could only use one or the other (free player or full) to load in presets. If I had both, it never worked. And even though I had uninstalled the 1.5 full version, my plugins still had 1.0 listed (which I've long suspected was my problem). But even though I tore out everything to do with LAMH (other than saving my preset folder on my desktop), I couldn't get that 1.0 to go away. I finally found that it's a hidden file that I had to remove and now, everyone plays nicely. My furry Eastern Dragon may not have survived this but I can recreate him :insert evil laughter:

    That is cute, and never let anyone tell you animals don't play! :coolsmile:

    My clown loaches would play "Who can swim into the power head fastest?". I had a HUGE pump putting a river-current flow in the six foot long tank - the fish would sit below the output, and one by one jump into the outflow, swimming as hard as they could, trying to touch the nozzle. When that fish got tired, he dropped back into the crowd and let the next loach give it a shot. Only 2 loaches ever made it - Major Loach (she as near five inches long) and, of all fish, Fraidy Loach (he would hide whenever anyone other than me came into my apartment).

    Clown loaches are fascinating - if I ever settle down, I'm going to have a fish room with NOTHING but loaches! :cheese: :cheese:

    LOACHES RULE, PRIMATES DROOL!

    There are far too many acronyms flying around in here lately! I don't know what they mean.

    That is my complaint. :smirk:

    ...ended up having to get some of the same. as the our "Nation's Best Transit System" committed a major fail on my commute into work today. Did help but don't like the fact CD still uses HFCS. Having been way from commercial soft drinks for some time now I actually notice the difference in taste. HFCS is more sickly syrupy sweet than cane sugar..
