Why am I on here after Midnight!!!!!!!

Ok, sitting here typing away and it's 18 minutes after midnight on the west coast. Am I sick? do I need therapy? Medication?

I might have to confer with my wife (she's a doctor) But she isn't here with me. she is in Colorado. what do I do???

Funny thing is, there are 494 others logged on
But only 39 members woow now 38.

What the heck are we doing

Anyone else have a good reason for being here at this time?

I think it might be an addiction, but it can't be, right?

I'm not addicted to anything.

It must be my desire to help all those other AS owners with there problems. "Thats my story and I'm sticking to it"

The night is quiet as cool air pours in from the open patio screen door and I can hear the waterfalls of the koi pond while the clock chimes as others in the house (including the dogs) snore away in dreamland while I savor and give input to such interesting AirForum threads such as The Argue Thread!

(I read somewhere that Howard Hughes worked best at night.)

Ummm " the argue thread".( thinking of it fondly) Still scared the mods have said nothing. I think they are planning something devious.

After spending all day in a house with DW and 3 and sometimes 4 grandaughters I'm thankful for two things. First is for some peace and quiet even if it's the wee hours. Second that I was not born a girl. Sal.

Unfortunately, there is no cure. Liquid aluminum is now running through your veins and your need to share your pains and triumphs with other infected people is overpowering. Even selling off your aluminum won't help. You will then find yourself constantly looking in back yards, alley ways, open fields, and even junk yards for an aluminum fix. Best that you just succumb to the power of aluminum.

Ahhh, the pleasure and pain of being an Airstream Owner. (mostly vintage)

No, you need to keep busy, so how about coming over to my place and do the repairs to my Argosy!

Let's see I have Emma 9 1/2. Andrew 6 1/2. Elsa and Linnea 2 1/2. They make me laugh every day and also stress me out. Emma asked about sex yesterday while we were driving somewhere, I told her she had to talk to her mom about it. What the heck she is nine.

I need more sleep not staying up as late tonight.

My wife and I have been stuck in Phoenix all summer. Wish we were in the mountains, instead.

When we were teenagers, too much free time led to problems. I guess when you get old, too much free time leads to eye strain and carpal tunnel.

I am living my retirement and vacation time vicariously through others. Please keep posting photos!

Oh man here I go again. Just can't stop taking a peek at what's going on this time at night. I have got to get some sleep tonight. Some turn off the Internet and 3G.

Don't be silly. The human body is very smart, even when the person wearing it sometimes isn't. When your body really needs to sleep, you'll sleep, and you can't stop it. Not even insomnia will prevent sleep forever. Until that time, enjoy the extra productive hours you've discovered. Worrying about being awake only keeps you awake.

Ooooh. Yeah, we'll those depend on my mood, the tread, and whether they will add to the context of what I am saying. But I love my kids smiling faces the best.

Darn it. I just looked at the clock again. Kids are getting up in six hours. That hour time change from the west coast is messing with me. I had less jet lag coming back from England this spring.

Not happening tonight!!!!!!!

The kids don't start school to next week, So you would think I would get to stay in bed till 8am... Boy was I wrong.

For some reason my wife expects me to get up and make her fresh coffee, and an egg, ham, and cheese english muffin. And some lunch for later.

So I'm going to bed before 10:15 tonight!!!!!! And I'm leaving my Iphone and laptop down stairs.....
