LMAO, Jem and Thora, at the word stuff! That's great!
I applaud all here who keep in shape and try and stay fit and healthy as they possibly can. Age doesn't mean squat, as long as you're taking care of yourself as best you can, that's the most important thing. I could do well to get a bit more exercise myself-sometimes I walk to work (it's about a 30, 35 minute walk from where I live), but that's about it so far. The walks are nice, though.
So I did watch Craig Ferguson last night when my kids were in the audience. If any of you don't know him you should check him out. He's by far my fave over everyone including Conan. He's a middle aged Scot (who's extremely proud of his new American citizenship and has a ginormous tattoo on his arm to prove it.
) he's got an adorable perverted sense of humor, never vulgar (maybe naughty is the word I want) but somehow reminds me of my own sense of humor. Anyway. He's just cute and and his show is all improv and we just love him. My kids managed to see the backs of their heads on the air on the last night
Fantastic description (and yay for catching the backs of their heads on the show, LOL. That's something, at least!).
I've seen clips from when he swore in as an American citizen, when he documented the whole process on his show. He looked so emotional and so incredibly happy when he was officially declared a U.S. citizen, it was absolutely touching and very sweet
. I think he embodies the spirit of this country incredibly well.
Naughty is the word I went with (the "Dickens" line last night-I had my hand over my mouth and was looking at the TV, shaking my head, like, "Oh, Craig..."). I like that kind of humor, where it's more subtle but it still gets its point across and sounds dirty in a good way instead of an offensive one.
You mentioned liking him above all other late night people-yeah, after all the insanity of the late night wars, it's been quite refreshing to watch a show that pretty much stayed out of the whole drama, that didn't bog itself down in snippy retorts and "battles" and whatever. Hell, Craig and Jimmy Fallon exchanged Christmas gifts a few weeks back! And they're up against each other! I've got no problem with Conan at all, but I just got so burned out on all the crap surrounding that whole mess, so it was nice to watch Craig and not have to hear about that endlessly.
And then there's the fact that he's quite sexy to boot. That doesn't hurt matters either
.
yeah, definatley, if i saw that the club audfience was enjoying thermsleves that would really help ( guitar playing)
same with the kareoke
my friend has a better voice than mine.
I just know that I
don't completely suck at singing.
and I'm slowly getting used to singing aloud again in my
apt
LOL, good. Hey, your place, belt it out, I say.
Alisaura, that's a good point, too-focus too much on looking cool and it can backfire on you. Ultimately, yes, the music is the most important thing.
At my previous with a 2 roomate + me situaution the roomie who was there before and after me got very vicious and more about 2 years into my 10 year stay- the place, locarion, the stores, the beautiful big tree-lined streets, half a mile away or less from some of Brooklyn's most beautiful attractions, some yummy restaurants, a B&N 3/4 mile away (w bus route for mostof it when i didn't weant to walk), plus independnet bookstores, wonderful crafts shops in the next nabe over - is what kept me there plus not finding something suitabke on previous tries......
anyway she would get riled up if she heard me singing (like of she heard the radio or CD player going) down the hallway... i'd have my door shut and some muffled sound would come out...... she'd start screaming at me from down the hallway, or bang on my door.
I love to sing! I love music!
I love to be enveloped, withthe music all around me ( live concerts will do that!
)!
so this was energy draing situaion at times
so smetimes I can forget that I
can sing now! I'm not singing loud past 10P at night....
Oh, wow. That sucks, sorry you had to deal with that. I mean, of course, when rooming with people you don't want to disturb them more than is necessary, but at the same time, you're entitled to do what you want as much as she is, it's partly your place, too. But you don't have to deal with that anymore, so yay! I do understand the past 10 pm thing, though, neighbors sleeping and all that. But eh. As long as you can still do that at all at some point during the day, it's worth it.
I love to dance!
when my younger 20 & 30's firneds - I sometimes join them to see a local U2 Tribute Band --- I can keep up with them when we're "swaying to the music, oooh ohh oh "
Fun! Sounds like a good time. You said non-ballroom, but that reminds me, sometimes I watch that "Dancing with the Stars" show and suddenly think that taking ballroom dancing lessons would be kinda fun.
(I wanna see a U2 tribute band
)
I don't understand the extreme religions that don't allow dancing. They don't know what they're missing out on. My friends and I are planning on going out tomorrow night and there will be dancing. Oh, yes.
I odn't even tempt Fate anymore with that either this or that question
LOL, good point. I'm quite happy to have both senses and want to keep it that way.
I love looking at Natire! I love looking at people's creative visual works in Art & Artisan Crafts, and Crafts in general!
Agreed here as well. So much talent involved, so much beauty in the crafts people make, the pictures, the images...absolutely lovely. I love to dabble in that stuff as well, I've been drawing for a long time.
Don't know if I'll talk again in here before I leave later tonight, but if not, then I shall see you all sometime Sunday when my friend brings me back home *Waves*! Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
Angela
I hope this time it's not that bad!
sss to you both with tailbone injuries past & present! 
ouch!
what was going wrong? Then I remembered my anatomy classes....oh, yeah...the tailbone !!
Sheeeeeeeesh you're ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooold!
Otherwise I migth've had to send the wee Irish lad over for a backrub!
We were both crying with laughter. That was kinda awkwardly awesome. You can tell it's an hour away from quitting time before the weekend when... 
Coming out with weird things at work twins. 
The poor security guy was a tad confused. *L*
I think that particular song is a bit too long for my playlist liking, but I'll see if I can find something else of theirs that's a bit shorter. Thanks!
