What is it with me and the purple lately? All my life, purple was just another Kool-Aid flavor. Now alla sudden, my lj must be purple. And not just any purple, a specific purple. Weird. But I'm rolling with it.

***

Alto sectional was held at chez [livejournal.com profile] mystikalwomyn, [livejournal.com profile] lizardsmae, and [livejournal.com profile] sexxyred1. This meant we had [livejournal.com profile] mystikalwomyn on hand to play piano (hurrah!). It also, more importantly some might say, meant we got to see PUPPIES! Okay, not puppies per se but two beautiful big white huskies.

Anyone want to help me goof off all day?

Would love to, but I'm about to finish my goofing off (otherwise known as pretending to work). Can't you live in a more civilized timezone¹?

Deviant.

You'd better believe it, buster. ;)

You know deviants have better parties. :b

[identity profile] woe2you.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
No you don't. Otherwise you'd be having one right now and not begging for distractions.

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I have to pay for the beer somehow, silly.

[identity profile] woe2you.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 07:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Damn you for arguments I can't refute.

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh. Score one for the Deviants. ;)

[identity profile] woe2you.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
You can't use beer against me. That's highly unfair.

PUPPIES!!!!!!!!

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 04:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes! You can see pictures of them in her userpics (http://www.livejournal.com/allpics.bml?user=sexxyred1). They're beautiful dogs.

Here, for more purple, upload this icon!

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 05:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay! Purple icons!

How are you feeling? Any better?

[identity profile] wafflelips.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Just woke up. Having coffee and then jumping in shower.
I think I'm doing okay.

[identity profile] woe2you.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 05:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Just woke up.

...and that would be why I can't stand you non-GMT deviant types.

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
What, just 'cause you GMT weirdos wake up in the middle of the night?

[identity profile] woe2you.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Umm, no. See, we define "the middle of the night".

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, except you defined it all wrong since what you call "middle of the night" is actually all bright with the sunshine and whatnot. And since I don't live in Alaska where one might expect to have sunshine and whatnot in the middle of the night, I must assume that it is in fact the middle of the day.

Goodness.

[identity profile] woe2you.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Nope. Last time I checked, it would appear that the night was dark and the sun was out in the day. Are you sure you're not just in the wrong place?

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Um no, the sun is out and it's the middle of the day. Are you sure you're really looking out the window?

[identity profile] woe2you.livejournal.com 2005-01-08 03:23 pm (UTC)(link)
It can't be the middle of the day. Observe the sun, check it against a clock set to real time (ie GMT). If they don't agree, you've evidently routed it onto completely the wrong flight path.

I gather that happens occasionally in America, and sometimes planes miss or barely scratch the Pentagon. Sort out your aim, willya?

[identity profile] woe2you.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 07:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Hisht. I've been on my feet all day - but if I ever catch you in similar state, I promise to show reciprocal respect.

[identity profile] wafflelips.livejournal.com 2005-01-08 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
I was up until 3AM last night in a most unpleasant state due to trying out a new dose of strattera (for the ADD). I was very very very grumpy this morning. Better now.

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Hope you feel better today.

[identity profile] wafflelips.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
This is a very soothing and comforting color. Considering the stuff you are tackling, it doesn't surprise me you'd be drawn to this purple. It is suppose to be good for anxiety.

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 06:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah. Makes perfect sense.

[identity profile] woe2you.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
And Imperial. Don't forget that.

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, we are aware of its imperial connotation.

*does the QE2 wave*

[identity profile] mystikalwomyn.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
ha! I have corrupted you and drawn you into PLOWU (that's Purple Lovers of the World United, for those few people who might not know)!!!

Of course, I'm also partial to deep greens and dark reds and corals and royal blues and... yup, I'm just a color slut.

But this is a VERY cool purple!

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 08:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you thank you. High praise from a self-professed color slut. ;)

Purple rocks, even if my very foolish husband disagrees. :D (he is reading over my shoulder as I type but I'm getting a backrub out of it, good deal, huh?)

Heeeee now I'm getting a mock-dirty look.

*giggle*snort*

I would gladly assist you in goofiosity except that I'm over here in Vegas. C'mon over if you like.

(he is reading over my shoulder as I type but I'm getting a backrub out of it, good deal, huh?)

Oh yeah, send him over here will you? I've got this little knot right about there.

Heeeee now I'm getting a mock-dirty look.

Heh. Those are fun. I get those all the time. :D

I would gladly assist you in goofiosity except that I'm over here in Vegas. C'mon over if you like.

If it keeps raining like this is San Diego, I just might take you up on that offer. The frogs are very happy; the rest of us are coping. ;)

Corran's kinda shy...not sure if he's loanable for massages. He's just popped out to Trader Joe's so I can have a carb-free breakfast (yes I know it's almost 2 pm...I've been bad today), but I'll ask him when he's back. :D

And it snowed in parts of Las Vegas yesterday, although not where I live. :( But apparently the driving has been hideous around parts of the valley, so I don't think you'll escape rain by coming here.

But you're still more than welcome to come hang if you wanna. :D

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-10 07:22 am (UTC)(link)
Ah well, I don't want to make Corran uncomfortable. Rats. ;)

It's been snowing in the mountains here, but in the valleys and coastal areas it's been rain rain and more rain. At this point, nearly anything would be preferable.

anyone want to help me goof off all day? sorry I just checked in, I would've helped but I've been goofing off all day. My [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] took the day off and has been goofing off too. I goofed off yesterday too and the day before...as a matter of fact, I've been goofing off for nigh on 43 years!

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I have much to learn from you, Oh Wise One. :)

Re: Where is everyone?

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Buncha people over in GMT; they're all "oh it's the middle of the night over here." Wussies. Ha I say! Ha and double ha! ;)

But yes, let's waste time on this rainy Friday afternoon. First off, the FAQ. (http://www.livejournal.com/support/faq.bml) Oooh, yay. /em pets the FAQ

Next, some LJ-specific html. To link to a journal, the code is < lj user="username" > without the spaces around the brackets. There are also cut tags, in case you want to make a long entry but not display it by default. That text is < lj-cut > ... < /lj-cut > again with the spaces removed.

That should be a start. Let's hope this posts correctly, eh?

[identity profile] virginmartyr1.livejournal.com 2005-01-08 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
had i had any time to help you goof off all day, you know i would've been right there helping out...of course, i can't access lj from work. besides which i had a busy, yet productive, day. however, i failed in the helping to goof off category. i promise to make up for it with future goofing off.

purple is good. not bright obnoxious purple as much. but purple gets a big thumbs up. i just realized that i've been into purple lately too..light purple especially. so it's good for tackling anxiety..makes sense. ;)

[identity profile] biogeekgrrl.livejournal.com 2005-01-08 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
Well, you did your part via email. That is, when your work server was cooperating. You're actually the #1 accomplice in goofing off. ;)

Why didn't I guess that you'd be into the purple too?

[identity profile] virginmartyr1.livejournal.com 2005-01-08 09:04 am (UTC)(link)

woohooo! go me!

Why didn't I guess that you'd be into the purple too?

*shrug* maybe your power of perception in this case have been overshadowed by all the purple? maybe you were too calm to notice or care. ;) but yeah, super shocking eh?
