Cloudy's Cafe-a conversation zone- January 2, 2011
Previous Cafe is http://www.ironworksforum.com/forum/...d.php?t=101688
Cloudy's Cafe Come in, be welcome, be comfortable, be yourself Welcome to Cloudy's Cafe, a place to have a cup of coffee or a good darjeeling and the finest in conversation and camaraderie. The proprietor asks that you follow a few simple guidelines: this is a real conversation zone, not a role-play zone * no flaming; if you disagree with a viewpoint expressed by any patron, please do so in a civil manner * any topic is fair game, but keep posts to the standards that Ziroc has set for the entire forum, please (ie: foul language is not appropriate and things should be suitable for all audiences) -a side note from Cloudy: I see this as a place for those short conversations about a new baby or the latest soccer fiasco, not for things that are big enough to warrant their own threads, by all means give those things the space they need and post separately! * Please, no one word or smiley posts (Ziroc has declared them 'real spam' and the proprietor doesn't want the reputuation of "good spam" to suffer!) * do feel free to be serious or silly and enjoy the company of others while you are here. By all means POST if you have something to say, even to start another topic , we can handle multiple chats, we're a CAFE!!! But be courteous and don't disrupt a conversation just to disrupt it. Come on in! The bar is stocked with coffees, teas, juices and waters from around the world. And purple napkins, of course! The lighting is low, the golden oak counters and tables glow with inviting warmth. Near the window, the lighting is brighter, as comfy, plush leather armchairs wait for those who'd like to read a book while relaxing to music or just lazily watch the world go by.

Re: Cloudy's Cafe-a conversation zone- January 2, 2011
HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY New Year to everyone. With wishes for good health and better things to come as we move into 2011!
We had some family drop in for New Year's eve. Well we had a few hours notice. They had to take someone to the airport near us to catch a ridiculously early flight out on New Year's day so they stayed with us. Wow, I forgot how hard it is to get to bed late and then get up at 3:30am.... LOL Luckily I didn't need to as my friend knew how to get to the airport. Hope all is going well for everyone. We've got hot dogs and french fries cooking so lunch is almost ready. Cookies on the counter- help yourselves! And someone find out what happened to the M&M dispenser...

What the...? How can you break an endless M&M dispenser? Do you know how serious this is for my addic- errr... do you know how important M&Ms are to one's well-being?
*leaves for a few* *returns with tools* Hmmmm.... lessee... gonna take a while. In the meantime, happy new year, all! And I agree, Cloudy... 3AM wake-ups are best when someone else has to do it *grabs a couple of cookies* Christmas festivities finished up here yesterday, with my dad's side of the family. We may have screwed up, though... I though the dollar limit for kid gifts was $15, but both my kids got something in the $25 range. May need to do damage control... In the meantime, it's off to see the lizard... and maybe getting back to working on my endless project, remodeling the basement

I don't know what surprises me more, the fact that my username hasn't been erased to inactivity or the fact I remember my password.

ROTFL, Gangrell, good to see you, and glad to hear your memory is intact..
Bungleau, 3am....I am way past getting up at that hour for travelling! But I'm glad my company managed. I offered to give them an alarmclock but they used their phones- gotta love all the new technology! Have fun on the basement rehab. Send some encourangement to my hubby- I'd like a basement makeover too! Aha, the M&M's are back...well, the dispenser is, anyway....hmmmmm

I use my cell phone all the time now too... in addition to whatever "standard" alarm clock is set. I can trust my cell... 'cause it's not an iPhone
As for the basement makeover, you really sure you wanting me giving Nacht tips? I started this project in March...nine months later, I have walls. It ain't exactly fast going... I keep getting dis-- Oh, there's the ex-Endless M&M Dispenser. Lemme check that out some more... *grabs more cookies and sits down*
