What can we do besides hang?

Simply “stand”? Still standing….

Chill. I do a lot of chillin’.

I also lay down on the job from time to time, but more often I’m a stand-up guy. (Not a standup comedian; that’s too much work.) I’m pretty good at what I do, but I’m not really outstanding, either. I’m not a standout. But I’m also here every day, too. I don’t need a stand-in.

I never “hang”. I observe, I participate, I look inward, I cogitate, wonder and analyze. I spend time with friends, and try always to enjoy the journey. I haven’t “hung” since I was about 15.

I had a dream once that I was hanging from a cliff. Something told me that it was OK to let go, and I somehow knew that I could trust that. So I let go. And it was OK.

What would I do if I couldn’t hang in there? Live, love, laugh and relax.

I’d lie down.

The latest answer to that question I heard is, “I still have a pulse.” That’s sad, but honest.
“Doin’ the best I can.”
“Fair to middling.”
“Missing a beat here and there.”

“How ya doin?”
answer: “What’s it to ya?”

I’m surprised no one else brought up Benjamin Franklin.

We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.

Cruise or sail would be good too!

Make myself a cuppa tea.

What could possibly be more fun than ‘hanging out at the mall’.

So, you are asking for casual, meaningless comments? I would go for something with a little more content, like “Have you clicked on thehungersite.com today?”

Are you looking for something to do during lunch or break? These days, I would take a nap. However, when I was working, I usually tried to get in some reading.

Crucifixion?

My favorite response to the question is ‘Vertical and above room temperature’. Luckily on the green side of the turf.

Hangin’ is way better than treading water, lol.
But man, what I wouldn’t give for the feeling of coasting!!!

Dude what the hell are you talking about?

You could chillax. You might decide that, were you a super hero, you’re just not gonna save the city today.

Yeah, sometimes I can’t hang in there, and instead I just feel like hanging myself. In these cases, which may apply to many other cases that don’t involve being emo, one could try not giving a fuck.

Like this.

So, today was dress all in white day at school. Everyone dressed in white, except for Zeena, Jenn and Symbeline.

Zeena dressed all in black, just to be a rebel, annoying and to piss everyone off. Jenn couldn’t have been bothered, and just went to school dressed as she usually does, because she jess dun care bout none o’ dat trivial shite. And Symbeline didn’t even fuckin show up to school to begin with.

Try not going to work sometimes. You know, like just a small day off. You won’t have to hang, and be bombarded by the platitudes of every day life, or the fake promises and shattered hopes of how cool it would be to be bouncing on balls all day long. (oh shit this is Friday, I shouldn’t have said that) You can do what you want at home. Read a book, spend time with the family, or work on a personal project. Is Joe even a real food stand guy? Come on Wundy, Joe? Either way, give yourself some bit of personal time, and that fiend Joe won’t be there to make everything even more morose then it already is, know what I mean, jellybean?

Also the winner here is Jenn.

Yeah you could chillax, be chillin’ like a villain, or when someone asks what’s up, you look up and say, well…some clouds, the sky…the ceiling, if you’re indoors. Then you ask the guy, what else did you expect anyway, you dumb motherfucker? A sacrilicious waffle? A dirigible? Superman?

Happy Friday yall. :)

An interesting conversation I heard between two young adults:

First guy: “What’s up dog, How you doin?”
Second guy: “I’m Parlayin’ man”
First Guy: “no doubt son”

I’m with Trillian on this. I don’t hang well and I’ve never been good at idle chatter. Yarnlady, if I get her meaning, has the right idea. I went to Haiti with Partners in Health soon after the earthquake and worked the disaster because, basically, I was bored out of my mind with life here in the states. One of the greatest experiences in my life. Did two tours, four months each. About four years ago, I sold everything and followed Zephyra’s advice and haven’t looked back since. I’ve sailed from Maine to Key West and from KW to the wonderful island paradise of Dominica and back. I’m flat broke, debt-free, happy as a clam and have met some really amazing people whom I am proud to have as friends—people I would have never come close to knowing if I’d stayed mired in the grind working 9 to 5 protecting my sacred 401k.

Damn, dude! I would have never left Dominica if I didn’t have to. That was my most favorite vacation ever!

@wundayatta I know, right? I had to get home to work, earn money, overhaul and re-rig my vessel. I’ll get back down there next winter. In the mean time, I’m a charge nurse in a private psych facility—which is another adventure altogether. I’m thinking yoga clinic complete with kayaking, diving, hiking, maybe some horses, and definitely an avocado farm. But it all takes the moolah… starts with a dream.

There are a lot of ecotouristic places there, already. Yoga sounds good. That’s been doing well over in Costa Rica. Which end of the island do you have in mind? We stayed in Calibishie, which is more off the beaten track (not that there is a beaten track in Dominica), and really enjoyed it. What I like most is that around every corner is a different beach, and when I say different, I mean different. Different color sand, different shape, different rock formations, and on and on.
