Well dear GoTravel, it is only late Saturday afternoon here but I am feeling like a looser.
I had a list of mental "to to list" in my head. First I slept in late. Then I spent most of the morning on the telephones thanks to phone calls I received (all fun though). Then took a shower and before I was hardly dressed a friend with a newely adopted baby girl came by (precious little girl). Then I what..goofed off..and in between all this I have been on Fodor's. So it is almost 4:00pm and I have accomplished absolutely nothing!
And now it is soooo hot outside that I just want to spend the rest of the time inside with the a/c but I don't want to start any of the "to do" items I should really and truly do, lol.
Yes, I am certainly feeling like a Saturday Loser, lol! But thanks for your thread..I guess it is true..misery loves company. Well actually I am not feeling miserable..just guilty regarding the fact that I have not accomplished much of anything. Big hugs!!

Gotravel~ I have no camers advice. My husband operates the digital. I did, however, take some neat pictures of a caribou herd, with young ones. All told, maybe 20 of them.
We had a picnic outing on a local beach today. The other people there were assembled at the Mr. Potato Head factory, since they were mismatched. I jumped in the middle of their party and pointed out my deficits, just to make friends.
Anyway, nice top see the SNL group starting early. We have daylight til midnight up here, so I'll be out and about until they threaten me with curfew again. cheers, J.

I'm watching infomercials. Then I'm looking them up on the internet to see which ones are worth it and which ones are bull crap.
My husband is working and my son is on a school trip to NYC. (At least he gets to go on vacation, unlike his parents..hmph!)
My SIL just called to say her boyfriend is too tired to go out, so she "guesses" she'll go out and get something to eat with me. I did spend a few hours in her pool this afternoon, though.
When I come home I'm going to wash my kitchen floor. I'll probably drink wine while I do it.
And to top it off, I'm telling all this to people on the internet.

I'll join - though it's only about 4:00 here. It's about 1000 degrees outside today. So since I hate being sweaty I've chosen to go grocery shopping, whoo hoo, and doing laundry. Got a new heating and air system about 2 years ago and it works great so I'm cool inside. Meanwhile my kids are with friends - DS is with someone who has a boat! Think I'll read my book club book for the next meeting which I just found out I will not be able to attend - more of a loser....

STW, in a story loosely related to your insistance that you could deliver a baby...
A few weeks ago my daughter went on an interview at a clothing store in the mall. This was a group interview and they all had to role play trying to sell a particular piece of clothing. Well, DD felt she did particularly well on that part of the interview because she used points she'd learned from WNTW to talk up the skirt! She was, in fact, offered a job! (But decided not to take it as it paid less than the job she already had.)
Guess it's not called The Learning Channel for nothing! LOL (sure wish I could get the hang of those darn emoticons!)

Caph...
LOL! Good for her!
Hint on the emoticons...if you place your curser over the emoticon, say in someone's post, you can see what you need to type to create it. Or, you can copy and paste directly from the main list.
And Caph, since you have questioned my abilities, you may kindly refer to me as Dr. STW, please.
Did I mention that I have a burning fever? SICK LOSER...
Infomercials, huh?? Sorry BuffaloGirl, that's gotta hurt

Speaking of boats, when I went to pick up my car from last night (I never drink and drive), neighbor is selling his boat and I'm thinking about buying it and surprising Mr. GoTravel.
We sold ours and have been boatless for a while.
This one is a 20ft center console that would be good for fishing about five miles offshore. It is an offshore boat so 20ft is bigger than a 20ft ski boat. It has a 175hp Merc.

Yeah CAPH, but now I am thinking, pour a glass of wine and wash the kitchen floor, thanks to BuffaloGirl's comment, lol. That was on my "to do list"!
GoTravel a bag of any kind of potato chips works IMO
.. but I would have to go to the store to buy some, and it is soooo hot outside.
Gads, you all make me feel better about "what I have not gotten done" LOL. Big hugs!

My, my, a bunch of early losers tonight. It's only 6:30 here in Texas.
I can't believe I actually watched both soccer games today. I was making chocolate chip cookies for a luncheon tomorrow. By the time the games were over, there were only a few left. That's a Loser with a capital L for sure. Loser hips is what I'll have if I keep it up!!
