You got a whole post on my blog :-) You so speeshul. No seriously, love this idea!!! Couldn't decide between the beer and that 'rita. I drink beer, but the rita fits with my 'girly' blog style. LOL
-----
[BusyDad] Thank you Rachel! Hmmm best feeling in the world? Blog love from my pals!
My agenda,too! Stop the thief, stop the thief. (Tell me where that is from and I'll buy you a virtual drink)
-----
[BusyDad] Great minds plan alike... or is that lazy minds? And dang it, I don't get a virtual drink!
Whoootttt!!! Good for you! See ya at the party ;)
-----
[BusyDad] Yup! Clearing that calendar.
mine was a little fuller, but hey, I got a power nap in so I can't complain too much.
-----
[BusyDad] Ah, that's luxury! My body has evolved that clean out of my system.
Sweet! Nothing better!
-----
[BusyDad] A Newcastle in my right hand might've sweetened the picture a bit, but I'm not complainin!
Meh, I'll buy you a virtual drink, regardless. I was just trying to be sassy on a Saturday afternoon. Didn't quite work.. It's from Peter Cottontail.
-----
[BuzzeeDad] I should have known that. For that, I must take a swig.
Ahh, next weekend. Next weekend will be the first time since before Christmas where I can share in this feeling.
-----
[BusyDad] Yeah, this was a rare occasion for me too. Hence an entire post dedicated to that fact. Cheers Boogie on V!
Is forgetting your name an indication that you've had too much to drink?
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Yup! That shows your dedication and I am proud of you.
Tell you what, you come over here and do my agenda! I've got laundry, cleaning, scrubbing, surviving a toddler's disaster area, and scouring a kitchen.
Of course, that was my agenda today too... and I didn't do very much.
-----
[BusyDad] This was a one-time occurrence. Like Haley's Comet. Otherwise, I'd be happy to!
LIAR! Your agenda.... "The Buzz"
How long have you people been doing this and how come NO ONE told me?
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Hey now - don't you worry, you caught the wave on its inaugural weekend. Prior to this, it was just me bloggin and drinkin by my lonesome!
I had the same day, and dammit, it was heaven... I've been sleeping like the tired mama I am, because my boys are gone. Haha, yeah I know how to party ;)
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Few things rank up there with this scenario: "ok, what next... hmmm. nap."
Man, I had a great time tonight. 2+ hours of busting out comments!! learned a lot, laughed a lot, and loved every minute.
Cheers!

[BuzzeeDad] Glad you had fun! I'm gonna stumble around for a bit more and wake some people up!
Fantastic! lol Gotta love days like that. :D
-----
[BusyDad] Just appreciatin the little things!
Just stopping by to let you know this Blog Hopping thing is pretty cool. I've had a bunch of new friends stop by and grab a beer. Looks like I may need to run out and get some more!
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Glad you're enjoying yourself. Looks like we need to get a beer pool going pretty soon!
Show off!!
-----
[BusyDad] When it's something I can achieve once, maybe twice a year, I will shout it to the world. I should have jumbotron'd it at the Staples Center, come to think of it.
ooooh! now THAT is my kind of agenda!! woo hoo!
(found ya VIA blog-working, you have a new reader [yay][clapping])
-----
[BusyDad] Great for life. Bad for business meetings! And new reader - WOO HOO!
Krypto looks a little sad. I think it's because, no where on your agenda does it say, "Feed Krypto," or, "Walk Krypto." And a dog named Krypto can certainly read.
-----
[BusyDad] Hmmm... maybe that's the culprit who penciled in Fead Dogg and Wok Me
Oh I am so jealous of that.
-----
[BusyDad] I'm so milkin it. This NEVER happens.
I love days like these! We all need more of them!
-----
[BusyDad] I'll take this over cold hard cash any day!
I'm a few days late, sorry! Hope ya had a relaxing day...most of mine are like that :P Jealous?
-----
[BusyDad] Yes. Extremely.
Shut up! I'm jealous. So much to do, so little time.
-----
[BusyDad] Trust me, that was a Cinderella moment. Once the clock struck midnight, it was back to "how the hell am I gonna get all this done??"
my life mantra
-----
[BusyDad] It DOES have a calming effect doesn't it?
How oh How do I get a list like that?
-----
[BusyDad] My friend, if I knew, I wouldn't post about it. It was such a monumental occasion that it deserved a wordless post. I have never done a wordless post. I was just speechless.
Somehow, my paper never looks like that.
Kudos to you!
-----
[BusyDad] Me neither. Fleeting moment, forever lost.
