I've got a busy week coming up but still gotta spend most of my Sunday in bed,relaxing,reading the papaer,sipping good coffee,surfing the boards.Around 10 or so I'll make myself a really nice breakfast (and because it's Sunday,won't count fat grams:)

No matter how busy I am I find my week goes much more smoothly if I take my ritual down time on Sunday,it's not a luxury anymore it's something needed .How about the rest of you,anybody else here just totally do nothing but relax on Sunday ? LOL,Maybe I should start the ATOT Big Mattress Sunday Brunch club :)


Oh and Good morning ATOT,coffee is brewing now :D

Brunch? Not yet. It's freaking 3:45 AM and I still can't get this PVM software to work at all. There's almost no documentation for win32 systems and what little exists is about as clear as the coffee you're making.

Hrm, by definition:

brunch:
a meal usually taken late in the morning that combines a late breakfast and an early lunch

breakfast:
the first meal of the day especially when taken in the morning

So brunch is breakfast, but breakfast isn't neccessarily brunch. Unless you eat breakfast, and then brunch later, but you can't do that because brunch "...combines a late breakfast..." and breakfast is the one and only first meal of the day, so it wouldn't be brunch by definition because you would already have had your first meal. So yea, brunch is always going to fit under the definition of 'breakfast', but not vise-versa.
Why the hell do we have the word 'brunch' then? Damned marketing screwing up our language.

Good morning...

Sitting here at work myself, trying to figure out a vlan tagging (802.1q) configuration device interoperability issue. Wup.

Nothing like 2 eggs, toast, and as much butter as the toast can hold, along with some hot black coffee and the funnies page. To be followed by a dose of calculus.

Yes it's a necessity. I cook myself a nice breakfast of corned beef hash and eggs. I use the lite hash though to cut back on the fat. Tastes the same anyhow. Usually sleep late and then neff on the Forums. :)

Anyways speaking of sleeping late. Time for me to go back to bed so I can get better. :p

It sure has. These last few cool spells have been awesome too. I love that when it cools off at night, and during the day it warms up to a perfect 75 or so with the sun shining...great stuff..

Well, I run a church program from 6 till noon, after that I usually go role-play. Sometimes I just do nothing. Since football is starting up, well, roleplaying will take a back seat.

They have "light" corned beef hash?! I've never seen this... (I love the stuff, but was quite amazed at how much fat was in it..)

When you're telecommuting and not on a project every day is relax day. The biggest event of the day for me every day is going to the gym and that's about it :)

Good morning, ATOT! I just woke up, scruffled my hair, threw on a polo shirt and flannel pants, wandered into the kitchen to get a large bowl of Froot Loops, and am perusing the Internet for the news and reviews of the day. Afterwards, I'm packing to leave on a week-long vacation at noon! :)

And Good Morning to you, dear Baffled2. :)

The Mister is still in bed, but I have been up for some time... we had a sleepover for the kids last night so I was up making the promised pancakes.

As usual, I have a ton of stuff to do still (that is the problem with working from home, ugh) but I do plan to go for a nice, long walk by myself this evening. I call it 'recharging my spiritual batteries'... no matter how you like to do it, it is something everyone needs to do to keep healthy and sane.

Enjoy your day of rest!

On a lot of sundays I don't really do much but sometimes I really wear myself out by reading or going to the movies. Today I may go all out and play my PS@ all afternoon.

Yeah, the Mary Kitchen stuff. Hormel makes it. It's in a green can.

Oh yeah I was going to go back to bed so I can get better. Must stop neffing on the forums. Must stop neffing on the forums. :p
