I do believe calvin's expression and comment fits most appropriately!
have checked in daily as a way of decompressing (as I am now!) -- but just .... (see title of thread!)
and now it's time to scrub-a-dub-dougie so I can head out to church!

oh and PS -- click on the member spotlight and scroll down for an OLD picture of me if so inclined -- warning may inducing fainting LOL!
on pic -- recede hairline, add lots more gray to hair and wrinkles to face, then add enough pounds for a "proper double chin" (quote from Fiddler on the Roof -- yes, I AM a theatre geek -- can you id the song?)
Have tons of sympathy for you Doug!!! Totally get the worn out world.
Here's to a few extra minutes of quiet! ![]()
Glad to see you didn't drop off the edge of the world!! What would we do without you!?!?
He!! week sucks! Been through it myself (community theater) - love tech, dress rehearsals til 2 am! Good stuff!! It always seems to come together in the end. I bet your kids did wonderful!
If I Were A Rich Man....all day long I'd biddy biddy bum....if I were a wealthy man!
Think i will go off and make a Gin and Tonic after reading that - and go have a little lay down -
Nice to see you on the board again -
GLAD TO SEE YOU GOT TO EAT ON TUESDAY THE 24TH - ![]()

then add enough pounds for a "proper double chin" (quote from Fiddler on the Roof -- yes, I AM a theatre geek -- can you id the song?)
Yes, I can ID that song. "If I Were a Rich Man." I worked as part of the costume crew in college. I cried every night, because the play was just so powerful. "Sunrise, Sunset" was one of our wedding songs at our Catholic/Christian wedding.
My favorite modern musical is "Rent." I see it every time the tour comes to town. I guess I'm a theatre geek too.
update --
remember I thought I get home at 3PM today?
Well, make that 6PM
because 2 things came up both at church.

finally, a few brief moments to relax
(oh and this week is end of the 1st quarter at school -- can we say grades?)

and BRAVO to my fellow theatre geeks jonahsmom and adonisthegreek1 for IDing the song. -- yes that is a beautiful, powerful musical. Someday I want to do Tevye.
Aww Doug, you have at least 20 years till you are old enough to play Tevye! ![]()
Put your feet up, man!
Get some rest!
We'll still be here when you get some time to chat!
...maybe in ...June?![]()
Idk why I thought you were a "she" Doug!
Sorry!! ![]()
