I keep wanting to ask what eveyone's doing tomorrow and then remembering you're going to work.

Smugness does to become you - i'm at the end of a deadline cycle at the moment so everything is slightly less urgent at the moment

Ariadne

21:47 / 23.08.04

sorry... but at least you don't have to get up at 5am for work! That's why I need holidays, just to sleep.

Ariadne

21:53 / 23.08.04

Now i'm sleepy - and my witty repartee has deserted me, if it every existed. so night night - have fun late shifting.

Nnight, Ari.

so are you hoteling it tonight haus?

ONLY NICE THINGS

22:16 / 23.08.04

Nah - I am working in bed...

Mazarine

22:22 / 23.08.04

I'd try to say something purile and filthy here, but my heart's just not in it.

Are you highly caffeinated, Captain, or just going on willpower and knowledge of impending deadline?

ONLY NICE THINGS

22:51 / 23.08.04

Neither, really - the deadline goes on until about Thursday. But I usually run on 5 or so hours' sleep - 3 last night was a bit harsh, but it's not the end of the world. If I slept more I would probably get more done...

I dont understand people of your kind. 10 hours to be properly awake for the whole day, less than 8 hours and I'm unpleasant. 6 hours sleep and you dont want to be in a ten mile radius.

My kittens arrived before I did, so somebody else is sorting them out, I'm happy to say.

Kittings!

Oh, rah! Kittens! I used to be able to get by on five hours of sleep, but these days, I kinda need thirteen.

Describe for us your newfound feline friends, ging. This thread needs something wuffly.

gingerbop

23:39 / 23.08.04

I dont know, I'm afraid. Small, fluffy, and four of.

I'm still at home just now, awaiting the journey of hell tomorrow night. 12 and a half hours on the bus with people who sleep with their mouths open, and have bad breath. But cute fluffy things will be awaiting me, and I'm going to see a flat so I can get away from my small children (including the "MUUUMMMMY, CAN YOU COME AND WIPE MY BOOOTTTTTOOOMMMM?" one who used to awake me at 5 every morning) and I start a tightrope walking course. Hurrah hurrah.

Smoothly

00:02 / 24.08.04

Evening all. It's a while since I've dropped into a Lateshift, so it's nice to see some friendly faeces. You don't have to wipe bottoms do you, Gingerbop? And please tell me they don't call you mummy.

ONLY NICE THINGS

00:04 / 24.08.04

Dude, if somebody's wiping my bottom, I intend at the very least to spare their blushes by calling them mummy.

Ganesh

00:08 / 24.08.04

Have you considered getting a monkey, Gingerbop? To wipe the kitling's furry little arsewuffles?

Hours of sleep? Five's okay, prefer six - but I can get by for a few nights on much less, then sleep in at the weekend. All the stuff we shrinks tell people not to do when they want Temazepam and we fob them off with 'sleep hygiene'.

Smoothly

00:08 / 24.08.04

I'd care little for their blushes and call them regularly.

Smoothly

00:10 / 24.08.04

Does 'sleep hygiene' have anything to do with bottoms?

Ganesh

00:11 / 24.08.04

You're thinking of 'arse hygiene'.

So often the way.

Fortunately, bribes of stickers worked for them wiping their own arses. Good god, I cant wait to get out of there. But trust me, if they still needed it done, I'd be training the kittens to do it, preferably before they can open their eyes.

Mazarine

00:29 / 24.08.04

Well, not long till the kittens are calling you mummy in mewling little voices.

ONLY NICE THINGS

00:29 / 24.08.04

You could apply the stickers *to* the bottoms, thus solving the problem, at least in the short term.

gingerbop

00:33 / 24.08.04

Haus, if I didn't know that my mother cant work a computer, you would have just convinced me that you are her. Uncanny.

Anyway, I'm off for my 10 hours. Enjoy yours, everybody. x

Mazarine

00:38 / 24.08.04

Ta ginger, sleep well.

Night ginge

Bye-bye bop!

Pssst!

Pssssssssttttttt!

Where's the smack?

I'm talking the big H.

I gotta' dragon to chase, see?

the cat's iao

01:08 / 24.08.04

C'mon, c'mon. I haven't got all day. I'm hurtin' here. Help a fella' out, eh? We could share:

It's cool, eh? We're pals and all. C'mon, c'mon.

the cat's iao

01:27 / 24.08.04

It's cool, see. I ain't no rat. I'm no stoolie. I'm not workin' for the man.

I spent my last mooched nickle.

C'mon, drop me a dime bag--ya' know I'm good for it.

Tuesday man. That's tomorrow. Or by the weekend for sure.

C'mon. Spot me some. Gimme a front. It's OK. It's cool. It's all good. Hook me up, eh?

the cat's iao

01:30 / 24.08.04

Oh man.

Huh...

I don't feel so good....

Huh...

*smack*

Huh...

HUH...

HAGALAZ!!!

23:50 / 24.08.04

It's been storming like a mother fucker since I arrived home from work. Pouring rain and some hail to. The sun has poked out now a bit in the West, but the rain is still coming down. Outside my north facing window--looking to the NW, I can see a gorgeous rainbow. Very vibrant with the bright sun and pouring rain. I can even see the double. Very cool.

Hello Barbelith. What magnificent pot of gold lies at your end this evening?

Brigade du jour

00:05 / 25.08.04

The pot of gold at my end is represented by having only a three-day-week at work, then I'm off to the (probably rain-soaked) rolling hills of Derbyshire to dress up like a fool and fight people with latex weapons. Or maybe just sit around and eat barbecued bananas.

How you doing cat's iao? Been a while.

the cat's iao

00:15 / 25.08.04

It has been awhile, MGB--good to be hearing from ya'! I am envious of your three day work week, and your holiday sounds like much fun! How long are you doing that for--is it a weekend thing or longer? Some sort of festival or something?

I'm good. The new job is good. I think I am already making small moves towards advancement--I've had to basically run the shipping department on two seperate occasions when the fella' in charge hasn't been there, so that's cool.

the cat's iao

00:17 / 25.08.04

Oh, and I guess I was looking to the NE to see the rainbow, and not the NW...a small but glaring error!
