Is there some kind of downside to living in Europe? It's twenty to eleven EUtime now, and I am getting the impression that there is NO ONE ELSE HERE. I do not believe anyone except me has posted in nearly half an hour (although I may be wrong). I am SERIOUSLY considering staying up all night (hey, its a weekend) because whenever I check the forums the next day there have been dozens of new threads started and now THIS. When is the best time to check the forums? I dont want to spend all my time waiting for someone to post something I can think up a reply to. Is there another reason for this, am I just imagining it or does this have to do with the time differential?

Hi Kaz,

I am here, but it sure has been dead today! I think it will pick up again around 7-8pm forum time as that is when most of the US people will be off work and at home. Not me though...going to the great MN get together (i.e. state fair http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif)

Good tip, yet 7-8pm forum time, that would be... er... plus six I think... 1 to two oclock in the morning my time? Or minus six, that would be 1 to 2 oclock in the afternoon. Either way Im not on the forum http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...les/crying.gif quite annoying there are some people I will probably never really meet this way because our forum times dont overlap (heck I was here for almost six hours yesterday)

I have decided to stay up overnight, or at least until my mother finds out http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif
Posting has reached an all-time low... not counting by bumps and useless replies I believe there have been 3 new posts here in the last 3/4 of an hour. Aww guys, I guess I miscalculated, 7pm must be 1 to 2 in the afternoon. Oh well, Ill still stay up

EDIT: it is currently half past twelve

HURRAH! THERE IS SOMEBODY ELSE HERE! I AM NOT ALONE IN THIS WORLD!!!
(I am getting a feeling that this is going to be one of those threads where you look at it the next morning and think oh god was I insane?)

Too bad I cant make myself a nice pot of hot VERY black tea but my mother has a light sleep (if she finds out about this she'll kill me) so id better wait till three (at least) before I dare leave this room.

Well, we'll deal with the regret thing later!

For now, lets keep both of us from the alluring call of sleep, LOL.

That reminds me of our exchange to England last school year. It was 18 hours by bus and ferry, none of us got any sleep. On the way back, the driver miscalculated so that, instead of 9 a.m., we arrived at 7 a.m.
We had to call our parents at 4 o'clock in the morning to inform them. They were not happy but hey, we hadnt gotten any sleep, why should they?

lol

OK anti-mom measures
I have put things on top of the lights of the computer
Turned off all the lights except my bed lamp
If mom comes Ill turn off the monitor, grab a book, pretend I was reading ("What? It's quarter past one? Gosh I lost track of time")
I need the computer to be closer to my bed http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif
Oh well

But ehm how are you gonna explain you were reading with all the lights off?

(i was so tierd i didn't even notests the lights were off?)

Uh-oh! Could this be the end of Kaz for tonight? Er....Hide! Pretend you're asleep at your computer, she won't dare touch it (well, mine wouldn't anyway). http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no.../1orglaugh.gif

You must be an hour in front of me I'm in the UK and it's only a quater past 12 here. Still... I'm pretty tired. Coffee is always good for keeping ones senses... I think I'll go make some.

Just checked all the lights are off even my brother has gone to bed but I wont leave the room again (the floors creak slightly). I think Im safe but this time Ill pretend Im asleep and hope she doesnt notice the computer humming. Does anyone have a little camera they could sell me, like one that I could mount above my door to see whats going on?

Very funny
I need soundproof walls, doors and windows otherwise I wont be able to do this regularly http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

Checked again 16 members 9 guests HELLO PEOPLE WHERE ARE YOU?

Hurrah it IS 7pm-8pm (1:33 a.m. German time) and nobody seems to be here. *SIGH*

Keep in mind that it's friday night. A lot of people like to go out for a drink or two, or pay a visit to the cinema to celebrate the fact that they have two days of freedom before they have to return to work/school.

They could be back later but by then it's going to be about 4 or 5 in the morning here. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/frown.gif

Hee heee - have you checked your burglar alarm recently http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

I wasn't planning on doing too much else today, just going to bed EARLY tomorrow or mybe catching some sleep around 5-6. Oops - it already is tomorrow.

I'm back! For part of the weekend, what is left of it LOL.
I aced three quarters of my tests and barely passed the math portion, but hey...it was ALL algebra and I haven't looked at an algebra equation in twenty five years so I feel pretty darn good.
I got registered, paid for my classes, bought my books....now all I need is a cool "Josie & The Pussycats" lunchbox and I'm in! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif
