What are you doing right now?

Getting one of the 3 Katy Perry songs that the XM station we have on in the office overplays all day long stuck in my head

"I Kissed A Girl"?

"I Kissed A Girl"?

Does Brian know about this??? :lol:

Actually it's "Hot and Cold" that's stuck between the ears now, with likely "Waking up in Vegas" coming through the speakers in the next 30 minutes

Yesterday was even tougher as if they weren't in the overplay of Katy Perry mode it was all about Kelly Clarkson who was in studio apparently at Sirius/XM doing interviews with any DJ that she could talk to

Finishing up the paperwork of the day. Gotta quickly meet with the Computer Systems rep and sign a purchase agreement for some new machines for a couple of extra rooms and then off to the golf course!

Finally it looks like a nice weekend from start to finish. Almost completed daily chores then it is out on to the water for the weekend.

Watching the clock crawl along... Nice friday afternoons in the summer kill me to be at work... and I can't even sneak out early thanks to my lack of a car :-/

FWIW my wife has the new ride today, so I'm driving the 11YO car to make sure it will be good for our trip north this weekend. Of course, I can't complain...I got to drive it the last 4 days. :smile:

I share your pain...

My chariot to work this morning was my girlfriend's 99 Ford Escort with a sloppy shifter (gotta search a little bit for second gear at this point), no air conditioning, and an almost totally rusted out muffler (we're saving to replace it soon... if it makes it through the winter it'll be a miracle)...

If my luck works out, I may get to borrow a friend's '98 Ford Contour SVT until my car's back... I already tried to borrow it once as it had just been sitting in her driveway... Unfortunately, it had sat long enough (since early March) that one of the brake calipers seized... she had me drop it at her mechanic's garage on Wed night... and it might be ready tonight...

Cars are fun.

-w (who thinks it should be WAY later than 3:27PM)

No, your pain is worse...the AC in my old car works just fine and the biggest problem (on the surface) is the steady Check Engine light...

Oh... the A/C doesn't work in the Contour either...

But it's short term pain... I should have my A4 back this time next week...

And the gf and I have started looking at cars for her... When we first started talking about the fact that we need to replace hers, she said 'ok, but I don't want some lame car...'

So far on the list of things she likes the looks / feel of:
Saab 93 (She wants the aero)
Audi A5 (she was very disappointed when I mentioned she probably couldn't find a reasonably priced one of these yet as they have only been out for a year)
Audi A4
Audi A3
Audi TT
BMW 3 series sedan or coupe
Jeep Wrangler (Though she was disappointed with the fuel economy on this one so I think it's out).

Whatever it is has to be a stick (she hates automatics).

Somehow I lucked into having an amazing girl who fences with me, skis with me, loves baseball and football (only negative is she isn't nuts about hockey), has an appreciation for fun cars, is a ton of fun to be around... and she's hot too

We've been talking about it... she's still young (turns 22 this month)... don't want to scare her off... we're getting a place of our own in Dec... as I said to a friend... It's no longer a question of 'if', merely a question of 'when'.

GREAT ----------Best of luck she sounds like a winner

BTW i met the queen when i was 21 asked her to marry me within a month . Being a musician and college jock i'd been with beaucoup ladies and knew what i wanted ) We were married at 22 and 21 respectively . So let her emotional maturityrather than her age be the facor as to when


I'm rooting for ya

Finished packing to head home in the morning after two wonderful weeks of vacation.

I hope my feet don't freak when I put shoes on for the first time in over 2 weeks.
