Beginnings, Middles and Ends – The Thursday Threesome

Onesome- Beginnings: Are there any television shows out there that you’ve watched regularly from the very beginning?
Joan of Arcadia, Smallville, Sports Night, Friends, Alias, Strange Luck, Roswell, VR5 and probably a few other sci-fi shows that didn’t last wlong.
Twosome- Middles: What about shows that you came into in the middle of the season but immediately grabbed your attention and turned you into a die-hard fan?
Actualy Friends was a middle of the season and but I was hooked. Mad About You hooked me for a while. I’m sure there is more
Threesome- And Ends: Recently, a number of big name shows have ended, Friends, Fraiser, The Drew Carey Show, and the cult hit, Angel. Did you watch any of the big finales? Have you ever been really sad to see a show go?
I was sad to see Sports Night and Roswell go. Every thing else was kinda short, this year I’ve lost a few: The Handler, Wonderfalls, I’m with Her, Century City and I’m sure there are a few more but I’d have to check my TiVo.

Fax Cover Sheets – Thursday Threesome

  • Onesome: Fax— Do you have access to or use a fax machine at home? Just curious… Yes. It’s the best $40 I’ve spent. And it makes copies too, much better than running up to Kinko’s.
  • Twosome: Cover— Hey, summer’s coming! What type of cover up do you use when you’re out in the sun? SPF4000? Sun clothes? A hat? “What sun; I live in a cave?” I usually don’t cover up enough. But when I do, I use whatever’s around.
  • Threesome: Sheets— 120 count or 180? (guys are exempt, but you could ask someone who knows!) 40 or 50, they’re pretty old… Actually I think they’re 180, but I’d have to go count to be sure!

  • Goodie Two Shoes – The Thursday Threesome

    Onesome: Goodie– What is your your favorite “goodie” you treat yourself to when you’ve finished a project or maybe even just survived a long day? Ice cream? …a long bath? …a good book? Ice cream. Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough!
    Twosome: Two– Quick! Two things that make you smile! No thinking, just write! Little Kids and Ice Cream. Both pretty much guarentted to put a smile on my face.
    Threesome: Shoes– …and how about your favorite pair of shoes? You know, the ones you look for an occasion to wear! (Yes, guys that ratty pair of tennis shoes does count…) I have two favorite pair (actually six), one pair is black dress shoes the other are rebock white tennis shoes (club c). I have three identical pairs of each from brand new (for nice days) to regular to ratty (for rainy yucky days). Actually I probably have four pair of each since I bet I have a pair of each new in a box in my closet. I hate shoe shopping, I have a few brown pair, and I’m not excited about any of them.

    A geek in the family – Thursday Threesome

    1. A geek– Hey, who handles tech support at your place? You? …the six year old? …or someone from outside? …and how about in your web space? No, we’re not looking for techs; we’re just curious . I’m it in my family, I do all my own web space (including my own Movable Type installation stuff). I’m the house that relatives call/visit when upgrading stereo or computer equipment.
    2. in the– computer? Just a curiosity for the designer types: what Operating System are you running? …and which browser? Since sites can show up differently in different browsers it’s more than a casual question. Macintosh OS X mainly (sometimes Windows, sometimes Linux). Mostly using Safari.
    3. Family– Do any family members read your place? Do they care? Do they have a clue? …and how about your ‘off line’ friends? …or do you supply a little bit of separation there? My mom stumbled upon it when visiting a relative, they decided to send me mail (and found my ‘blog). She didn’t say much about it, I have no idea if her and/or other relatives read it. I don’t mention it to friends generally. If they find it they find it… I usually don’t complain and I always avoid talking about dating so how much trouble can I get into?!?

    Insomnia, the Cure for Sleep – Thursday Threesome

  • Onesome: Insomnia– Ever have it? Some do and some don’t, but have you ever been hounded awake for that endless hour after hour with no hope of sleep? …or does the very act of touching head to pillow put you out for the count? Usually it’s a fight to get to sleep, I’d much rather be a night owl. Sometimes I start to doze off while reading or watching video, but I fight it like a little kid who doesn’t want to go to sleep. Sometimes I’ll doze off in bed and find a book or laptop next to me, maybe not the best but it’s better than tossing and turning. Lately it hasn’t been a problem, maybe the spring change kicking up the allergies?
  • Twosome: the cure– Hey, if you do have the occasional bout or chronic insomnia, what do you do about it? Work? Read? Try cures? Hmmm… Did you ever find one that worked? I can count on Ambien but I really ned a good nights sleep (8+ hours) to go with it. Sex works too, but it’s not an option often enough.
  • Threesome: for sleep– Female/male, young/not so young, we all need varying amounts of sleep. What’s your personal sleep cycle? Five hours? Ten hours? …and if you had a choice, what would be your personal sleep cycle? …and yes, “All day long” is a valid answer I usually get five or six a night and catch up on the weekends ten to sixteen (rarely). Preference would be to need none, but otherwise seven to eight every night would be great.

  • Home Improvement – Thursday Threesome

    Home for geeky toys and some sleep.

    1. Onesome: Home- What’s the one thing your dream home must have? Every room, closet and porch wired for networking, speakers, audio, video, satellite, cable, phone and (of course) electricity.
    2. Twosome: improvement- What’s the one thing you would change about your current home? New bed, couch? New carpet or wallpaper? Or something major like an addition? I live in a condo on the 3/4 floor, if I thought I could get away with a hot tub on the balcony, that would be it. But I think it’s probably going to be a new bed, actually the bed isn’t old but I need a new mattress, maybe one of the spongy memory foam ones.
    3. Threesome: shows – Do you ever watch home improvement shows? Which one(s)? Do you actually learn anything, or is it simply entertaining? Not really into the home improvement shows. They are kind of bizarro, IMHO.
