Oh wait
 

Today is 08-08-08, and sunset is at 8:08 (here, anyway). So maybe we should do something really special at 8:08 tonight. As opposed to what I'm usually doing at 8:08: zzzzzzzzz.

That's a great idea, B2Y!! I'll eat 8 Brownies at 8:08 PM in honor of today!! I'd better get started early, though.....can't eat 8 brownies in one minute. :rolleyes:

Today is my nephews birthday. His is the only one I can remember just because he was born 8/8/80! Good grief....he's 28 today!!! :eek:

Depends on how small the brownies are! If they're the size I like, you're right, you can't eat that many in a minute. Try Oreo cookies. ;)

Kitty, :eek::eek:! That certainly makes it easy to remember. Just like my son: born March 13 (3/13), my room number was 313, it was Friday the 13th, he was the 13th grandchild on my H's side of the family, he was 7 lbs 12 3/4 oz (7 lbs 13 oz if you round up). We gave him an Irish name b/c he needed all the luck of the Irish he could get (I have an Irish heritage).

Maybe I'll read 13 pages in a book in celebration. Or change the channel 13 times (wow, thumb workout!).

:D Well, let's enjoy it!

If I'm not mistaken, the Olympics start at 8:08 pm on 8/08/08 in Beijing. It's got something to do with the word eight in Chinese being similar to prosperity or some such.

that is pretty cool..... I was watching tv with DD - now that is special since I usually don't watch tv.

If this is a lucky day then I am buying a lottery ticket :D

Oh wait! Okay, I'm slow -- just caught the meaning of your thread title. Good Juan!

lol, I didn't see it until you pointed it out.

looks like somebody's been messin' wit' th' dial on my coffee IV again.

:D

That explains a lot! :p

Just an excuse to spend $$...she's really going to buy 8 pairs of shoes!

No w8! don't let shelley near a store! :p:eek:

Hey, you don't even KNOW my kids. :ranting: Don't be crackin' on them, girlie. You gotta mess with MOM if you do.

:p


:D "Oh Wait" indeed..... Good pickup, Twink.

Ya think?

:p:p:p

Yeah. And you do NOT want to mess with your mom. :eek:

I KNOW that...but you can! She's all yours! :eek:

Cool. When I call her, I'll just tell her that I'm you and that the change in my voice is due to the hormones I've been taking for that sex change operation I'm getting.
:D

Today is cool but I'll wait for 11/11/11 when the angels call. :-)

Is there something you're trying to tell us?

What if they just say, "Change to AT&T"?

LOL I'll say "Comcast." It's code. :p

You think you're slow, Twink......I just realized what "oh, wait" meant!!

I sat here forever thinking to myself "what meaning?". :Scratch-Head: I kept repeating "oh wait" over and over to myself when finally the light bulb went on. :Ponder:

Yeah, I'm slow......:o

deb picked up an 888 pick 3 lotto an 808 and an 0808 pick 4 just for yucks

COOL!!! I'm watching it now and all I can say is WOW!!!:yikes:

I just got it. haha

My daughter was born on 11/11, and I told her that in three years we're going to throw a big party for her. A double digit date only happens every hundred years. For example, there is no 22/22/22 because there are only twelve months. So, 11/11/11 should be a huge day for all the "numbers people". Personally, I think numbers are creepy. I like letters better. :D

I have always thought of 11/11 as being the time when the guardian angels come out to play. Spiritually, the number stands for 1,111 guardian angels. I had to laugh when I heard that 11/11/11 is the time for elevated consciousness and wondered if this means that we now have 111,111 angels? I guess they have to increase as we do. :D

Jim and I always notice 11:11 on the clock and tell each other twice a day. It's a tradition we've done since we met. :hug:

It's so strange that you say that, Sandy. It seems like I always look at the clock at 11:11. I don't mean to. I'll just look at it and that's what time it is. Same thing with 3:33. And I wake up at those times, too. My clock can be seen across my bedroom and it never fails - I'll wake up and look at the clock at 11:11 or 3:33. Sometimes if it's 11:10 or 3:32 I'll stick my head under the covers until I think two or three minutes have passed!! :o

From what I have read it's the guardian angels directing you to look so you know they are there with you. :hug:

Check this out for an interesting quick read: 11:11

Thanks for that link, Sandy! It was very interesting.....and things like the TV going off and lights going out for no apparent reason have happened to me. I won't worry about it now.....just take their suggestion to turn them off!! :p

I feel better thinking that it's the angels directing me to look at the clock so I know they are there. :)

I didn't know that!!! 444 is my lucky number..:confused:

Dangit! I didn't get a lottery ticket! Some friends of mine got married on 8/8/08, I'll bet that did that on purpose.;)

The florist I work for part time had 4 weddings that day! OUCH!!

Well, now that it's all over we can start looking forward to the next monumental day. 09/09/09 :D

that's so far away....
