| confetti | posted 13-Jan-2002 12:21am I hear the cold night wind rustling through the trees in our front yard. I hear the crickets chirping. I hear the computer humming. Hey, I just realized I have white nail polish on. It's blinding. Oh, by the way--I love "The Hobbit". I love it I love it I love it! After that I'm going to reread "The Fellowship" and then by that time "The Two Towers" will have arrived in the country and I can read that, and then I can read "The Return of the King", which I already have. It's been such a huge show of will-power for me not to dig into it already. Oh!!!!! You know, to read more about Legolas' "bright eyes". Okay, that's redundant. Okay, okay, OKAY, so I peeked in it a little, okay? It's not the world's biggest deal, right? I should be banned from writing things after 10 o' clock at night. |

| Gamera | posted 13-Jan-2002 1:07am I just farted. The next loudest sound comes from the fans in my bedroom. Yes, it's January in New England, but I just poly-urethaned a piece of furniture today and it's in my room with fans blowing the fumes out. I hear the little whirring and clicking of my "Person Jukebox" MP3 do-hicky merrily writing music to its disk, and the fans of my computer's CPU. My house mate just coughed downstairs, and I just farted again. |

I can also hear the hum of the computer tower, the clicking of the keyboard and the fridge motor just kicked on (we've got one of those self-defrosting models). I can also hear & feel my left knee joint pop when I shift my legs cause my arthritis is bothering me (cuz it cold and wet outside and the barometer is dropping). |

| Biggles | (reply to HareKrishna) posted 22-Jan-2002 12:57pm I am still having problems, but it's more that they're denying I answered the question I was asked than that I've got the wrong browser! I know I answered one, I'm just not sure if it was sent. Was your answer addressed "To Richard"? |
| HareKrishna | (reply to Biggles) posted 22-Jan-2002 4:55pm Was your answer addressed "To Richard"? No. |
