Well you're all just figments of my imagination anyway! 
Luckily I have a very good imagination so you're very cute figments!
Sorry, I've gone off on a tangent haven't I. Just slap me when I do that!

Morning, all!
I think I missed a few things...see if I can get caught up.
Cuddling. I am somewhat a fan of cuddling. Not something I like to do all the time, but it's wonderful to cuddle up on the sofa every now and then to watch a movie. It's also especially wonderful during the afterglow. 
I can be somewhat jealous of a platonic friend's romantic interest in someone else...but I am also very supportive of them. Kind of a weird, mixed-up thing, I know...
PR, we would be more than happy to put someone through an engine for you!
I missed the list thing waaay back...but I am not generally a list maker. I will create an inventory list every now and then of cloth, thread, needles, etc., as well as tools and armoring supplies, but that is more to figure out what I need to replace.
Alright, looks like I am caught up for now...
Let's hope the server stays up today!

I wouldn't call this jealousy, though, PR. I call it them being a bad friend. And why is it when they're single they always say something like, "Oh, I would never do that to my friends," and then BAM! they're gone. They just disappear and it's hard to not feel like you were filling time for them. I don't need to hang out with them all the time, but once a month would be nice.
I tend to see them about once a month, actually. Go from once or twice a week to once a month... maybe. Although that really only happened long term twice; eventually I got tired of putting in all the effort of seeing them. One (the one mentioned above, as it happens) then accused me of giving her the "silent treatment" after basically not initiating contact for a year. I just got tired of it and waited for her to call me. She is a very, very long and complicated story in my life. Very long. The other one I just never saw again.
Now I only get a little jealous when my best friend finds someone to be with; there's always a few weeks when I don't see her. Plus I get worried because I've watched her get her heart broken many times and I've only known her for a couple of years! *sigh* She is a good friend, though. She always makes time for me. That reminds me, I should call her. We're still working our way through the show, and seeing the movie on the 23rd!
Gotta get a move on!**********************************

Ah, but inventory lists are very different creatures than to-do lists.
I LURVE inventory lists. Wanna know what DVDs (and even VHS) I own? Gotta list for that. The lists aren't really keeping track of anything, they're just stuck on the computer in case one day I might like to look at them. God, I'm such a freak.

Ah, sorry! See, I told you I missed the list thing!
To-do lists are an evil of immense proportion...the few times I actually created one, I ended up doing half-a-dozen things that were not on the list before I even realized it!
No, to-do lists are not for me.
No, RugBug, you are not a freak. There will be times when I consult one of my "inventory" lists and realize I have something I could have used on my last project.
Here's a question to get us back in the less-than-PG-rated frame of mind...
Preferred place for romantic (or otherwise) couplings. I know that the bed is number one, but are there places you would prefer to the bedroom?

Oh yeah, I missed the list thing, too. Um...
I have a lot of lists, like of the bands I like (long story) and the CD's I would like to own one day (short story) and I also have all my CD's in order; A-Z by artist, in order of release. Funny that I don't even use my CD's anymore except to put them on my computer to listen to; I still obsess a little about the order.
I don't do "to-do" lists so much. I read a story when I was little about the futility of lists. It was a Frog and Toad story (don't know if anyone else ever read those?) and Toad made a list, and he was going to do everything on the list and nothing else, but when he left the house the list blew away and he stood wringing his hands because chasing after the list was not on the list and Frog couldn't catch it so then they just sat in the same place all day. It was a ridiculous story, I know, but it really put me off to-do lists for the rest of my life. Funny how things in our childhood can do those things.
Oh and also I have a very good memory, so I don't tend to need them.
I will write down due dates and when I'm supposed to be at work and stuff.

I make lists because I suck at remembering things. Whenever I want to download a MP3, I write the name down on this huge list of songs that I have. Said list is over four pages in length, which shows you just how bad my memory is.
Edit: Ah ha! I knew I wasn't the only one with the CD problem, PR! Course, it's starting to be a real pain organizing them (I have over 200 CD's)

Oh, Tristan, you are opening a can of worms. A can of kinky, kinky worms.
Beds are nice, yes. However, I prefer a LoveSac or similar large, stuffed, beanbag chair-shaped pillowy thing. I find I like the interesting positions and angles that can be achieved here. Also, for a similar reason, I like the car. I just wish the ceilings were higher on those. I have always liked the idea of sex in the kitchen. You have to have a decent-sized kitchen for this, though. I haven't ever gotten to try it. The only decent sized kitchen is at my house, which is also my mother's house. I have a very large closet, and for some reason I always wanted to try a few things in there. The floor can also be fun. Another that I have not experienced but would like to try is the outdoors; a nice, secluded park or somesuch. Moonlight and stars, or maybe out in the rain. Rain is sexy. Work is another one. There are big fluffy chairs where I work, and I think that would be great fun. I am there alone at night, since they only really need one person there for graveyard. I invited the ex there a few times; he never took me up on it. However, if we had ever had a movie theater to ourselves, I think he would have been up for it. Even when we didn't have it to ourselves, we would sometimes mess around, though not to any extremity.
Oh dear. This post is not as whorish as it sounds, I swear!

As do I, my friend. As do I.

morning all, east coast day shift clocking in.
Looks like I missed out on a lot yesterday due to the server problems and my boss actually expecting me to work. Once again I will try to catch up.
FMF- I would give him another week, try again, if no response, forget about it. His loss.
NVGhostrider, I am in agreement with you on the unstable ( more than a little indecisive ) but how unstable? There are different levels. Neuroticism and insecurity is tolerable, bipolar setting your car on fire and carving your name in her forehead while singing Janice Joplin is not. Hang in there, a good high speed wahl clipper with a 10 blade is on call here if needed.
Body temp is kind of important. My ex was cold to the touch. It was like sleeping next to a glacier. She thought it was quaint when I said I would like pajamas for a gift. It was just protection from frostbite.
Not one for lists usually. Serves me right if I forget it.
All for the cuddling. I have discovered there is no better way to watch Firefly than on my couch with my girlfriend wrapped around me.
Emma -- Smitten, great word, haven't used it in a while but it does describe my current situation oh so well.
PR -- I do not get jealous of my friends having relationships. I tended to get jealous when my friends would pair off and go do the couple thing with other couples.
Suddenly I was a leper. Instead of hanging out every other weekend,it was once every two months. We would get together, they talk of the fun they had had with other couples I do not even know and then as I was leaving, they would say this was fun, we should do this more often. And I would grit my teeth smile and say we certainly should......
Tristan -- Bed is always #1 for me, but a sturdy dining room table can be very practical. 
Ok, think I am caught up now. Is it too early for lunch?
