Hardwood is nice--I quite like my current setup, which is hardwood in kitchen/dining/living room, carpet in bedrooms and on stairs. Though hardwood stairs would be easier to sweep.
Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

The status is NOT quo.
Yay Omnis! Fwiw, I am STRONGLY in favor of Not!Carpet as carpet gets dirty easily, absorbs odors, attracts dust mites and other allergens, and is harder to clean. I recommend something like Pergo (fake wood) -- looks great, easy to clean, and lasts forever.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I'd also vote for getting rid of the carpet. Really don't like carpet, personally.

My arms hurt. Elliptical plus arms lifting is painful. Ow.

Is it shitty that I'm not interested in a guy because he's sixteen years older than I am? Should I meet up with him anyway? How would I politely turn him down if not?
These are the questions of our dating lives...
My date from Monday (to whom I accidently dropped the name of this board, whoops, so if you're lurking, HI!) apparently didn't feel sparks either, so. On to the next, maybe gained a geeky friend. ::shrugs::

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

It is what it is. There's no point forcing it if you know it's not going to happen.
That said, why not? What do you have to lose? (I mean, I actively go out of my way to avoid dealing with people, but I figure since you're looking for people to date, that doesn't apply.)

Eh, I'd take a look at the profile of someone that much older than me, but unless they were both hot and super interesting, I don't think so. There are very few 50 year olds who I'd be interested in. I feel like we'd be in very different places in life. I mean, by the time in their age, they'd be looking to retire (and unless they're mad rich and planning to have me retire then too...)

A couple of hours of my life, and probably just postponing having to turn him down.
hot
Not really
super interesting
Boring profile, though he alludes to a creative profession.
Every time I reactivate my account, I think I'm going to respond to every one who messages me. And then... I get worn down and end up ignoring messages.
eta I responded "No. thank you. I appreciate the invitation, though."

Our neighbors, who have 5 and 8 year old kids, he just turned 59. (My mother is 62, for comparison.) I never would have guessed - I'd put him late 40s, yes, and he's all grey, but he's 20 years older than me but still feels like a peer. (And with a 5 year old to put through college, clearly never going to retire.)

Well, I'm going out with a 39 year old in Saturday. I'm digging her because she used the word "problematic" in her profile...while admitting to singing along to One Direction. ;). We are going to play bananagrams.
