The Sunday Sunset Open Thread

by: poligirl

Sun Feb 14, 2010 at 22:45:57 PM EST

Hello to everyone out there surfin' the Progressive Blue tonight. I'm delighted to bring you our Sunday Sunset on this chilly Sunday evening!

(Grand Crescent Moon Sunset by Fort Photo.)

I bid you welcome to the last vestige of frivolity until (gasp) you have to go back to work tomorrow. So we will end our weekend properly with The Sunday Sunset. This open thread is meant to try to keep the weekend alive a little longer with our own late night farewell. I'll also post the weekly sunset photo in the body.

The floor for the Sunday Sunset is open to any stories about your weekend, as well as to any ranting, whining, crying, bitching, moaning, kvetching, and venting any of you would like to do. Laughing is of course definitely allowed and even encouraged, even if it's just desperate hysteria that's causing it.

There are only 2 rules in this particular open thread:

1. Be Good To One Another

2. Vote in the Poll

Notes on the poll: It's really single choice, but you can pick more than one... ;>

And hey - Progressive Blue is on Twitter now! Come follow us!

The Sunday Sunset is below!

That sucks, poligirl (3.00 / 2)

I hope it's not too serious.

You know I love cats, as well so I can imagine how you feel.

Regardless of being old, you never want them to go as they become a part of you, like family.

So all the well wishes in the world to your kitty.

thanks priceman! i hope this is just a small sickness... (3.00 / 2)

but she's been diabetic for 8 years now and she's almost 19 years old, so she's fragile...

and it totally sucks that this is my birthday week... my uncle died this week last year, my first love who later became one of my closest friends died 7 years ago this week, and now my kitty is sick...

this week sucks...
