‘Puter Blues

Sittin’ at the ‘puter, starin’ at the ICQ
Sittin’ at the ‘puter, starin’ at the ICQ
If I don’t hear your uh-oh, don’t know what I’m gonna do.

Sister wants to role-play, Daddy wants to pay a bill

Says if I’m not off soon he’s gonna cut me out of the will.

Hopin’ for an e-mail, openin’ the message screen

I still don’t hear your uh-oh, and I’m really turnin’ blue.

Peg, PDV, Dennis, Denise, Ellie, Best - Thanks for sharing.         Perhaps we should set up a computer addicts chat room??

   Well, I like to listen to music, too, but sometimes I miss messages if I can't hear the signal.  Can't have that, now can we?  Thanks for reading.  < !signature-->

Well, Marge, I am hooked on ICQ, but am rapidly becoming a Passions junkie, too.  I guess you could call it poly-web abuse.  Thanks.

Kaile -   Thanks.  I actually intended to write something serious, but this is all that came out.  Just for clarity, it's actually my daughter who wants to role-play, and fortunately there are only two of us here to compete for time.  Glad you appreciated.
