Wow! I have two people blessing me with what have to be very expensive tickets to the Sharks playoff games against the Canucks. I'm going to both game 4 and game 6 (if it goes to six games). I'm excited, and a little befuddled by the generosity.

A bomb was dropped on my improv group this morning. Our resident Aquarian bid our group goodbye whilst admitting an affair with a [taurus] guy in our group. Both of them are married with children. It saddens me.

Eskimono, I did mention my plans for your visit at improv last night. Our Brit wondered where you're from, and all I knew was that you live on an island off the mainland England.

WOAH. That's a head spinner for sure...

Where are you from, Esk? I've been to the Isle of Wight.

AG - you disappoint me! You mean you weren't even intrigued enough to look it up on a map?

I live in the Isle of Man - it's in the middle of the Irish Sea, pretty much equidistant from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

Ghani - I think PDF was from the Isle of Wight. How did you find yourself over there?

I didn't even remember Isle of Man, which would make it difficult to look up.

Oh great! Now I don't have an answer for you. No idea.

So, I decided on Saturday the 28th. Improvised Noir followed by karoake.

Do you want to do dinner beforehand with at least Jen and I?

Well, here's the synastry between Jen & I. Perhaps the most boring synastry ever, and I'm very pleased by that.

That's nice to hear (read). Do you pay attention to composites? I'm just curious if anything shows up there, to match what you've experienced so far.

I looked at the composite, but the sixth house interps weren't kind, so I stopped reading.

That sounds like fun! I'll leave dinner decision up to you - I don't want to inconvenience you, but I guess it would be nice to to at least have a drink together and a bit of a chat?

Might also be best for you to meet me at hotel so at least my mother can describe you to the police if I go missing? The 'house car' (I know, how posh) can take us where we need to go.

How giddy is this????

Had to stop by and tell you my mothers response to the arrangements.

She said 'but he might take you and sell you as a sex slave'!!!!

Not any of those usual things people do when they groom young girls on the internet. Oh no, not that fate for me. I am going to be a 37 year old sex slave! Sell me to someone nice AG.

I lived over in Portsmouth for a year and visited the Isle when my bff visited on Holiday. It was lovely. We were idiots though and trying to do everything on the cheap so we figured NAY, we don't need busses, we will walk! Little did we realize that 7 miles UPHILL would not be that great in summer in the drizzle. Good exercise though! LOL We did the same thing in London. Walked everywhere. Should have just sucked it up and taken the bloody tube as it is super cheap anyway and our legs/feet/bottoms would have liked us better.

I knew a woman from the Isle of Man. She said it was very nice there and her mum was still there if I recall correctly.

Hoping to go back to the UK someday. Said bff lives in Belfast, Ireland now so I would love to visit her and then go back over to England.

Ok, dinner will probably happen then. Jen loves Tiki-themed restaurants and bars, so she knows exactly where she wants to go.

I hope your mother's fears will be quelled upon meeting us. I have a feeling we'll look as if all of us could be family. All of us dirty blondes.

I'm a little disappointed in my improv group's response thus far. Dutch Rob will be joining us for karaoke, but no one else has said anything. I take that back. Our teacher said she'd be camping. For everyone else, I don't know if the scandalous affair might be affecting things.

The usual: secretly plotting to take over the world, practicing a mean air juggling routine, skipping music lessons.

You?

Nothing is ever as easy as it seems "sigh"

I got the new hard drive, ordered Windows 7. Well, it only comes in DVD so I had to order an external DVD player. Waiting for the programs via "free shipping". Seems free shipping is by mule and still not here but they said shipped.

Hard drive is screwing up ,I`m losing things on it and it`s just malfunctioning .

No bitter apple here tho, roses and peonies are blooming, sun is shining and I have a ruhbarb pie to eat

HA! updating my `puter has become a #&D@** soap opera

Someday, over the I may get it.
Dear ***,

I apologize for the delay!! We processed your order but determined we did not have the WIN 7 Home Premium to ship. Our product manager has advised us to upgrade your order to the WIN 7 Professional at no additional cost to you and get that out today. Unless you advise that you do not want the upgrade, then we will proceed with the shipment and the USPS tracking number should be trackable later this afternoon or early tonight. USPS picks up around 4:00 so they will scan so it will be trackable later!

Again, I apologize for our sending the tracking in advance of the shipment!!

We appreciate your business!!

Regards,

Joe T*****

Wow. That's too bad. I hope there are no surprises once you do get it. Windows 7 requires a certain caliber of computer in order to run it.
