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?)

Well, thanks for letting us know!

I was beginning to think you were in the witness protection program, because the thread asking where you went was deleted ~ twice!

Glad you're okay, just "a little" busy!

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.
