Well, how do you fare compared to the Zeitgeist? Chat up your fellow wooters and let us know how lame this poll was or what obvious choices we missed. For example: Was this poll a) STUPID, b) DUMB, c) POINTLESS or d) ALL OF THE ABOVE?

I need an option for "all of the above," or at least most of the above.

Need to build the new grill to replace the old rusted out one, and get some cooking outdoors done before the season is over!

Hang a chandelier in my dining room (really, the dining room end of my living/dining room) and a ceiling fan.

In 90 minutes, I'm heading out on a 1000+ mile two-day journey visiting three colleges in upstate NY with my daughters. It would probably be better if I'd gotten some sleep, but I'll get some tonight (hopefully).

I'm at the beach almost every weekend... tan is great. I'm to fat to be eating ice cream. I make too much money to ever want to pay to spend a weekend living like a homeless person, so camping is out. Have a non-MLB affiliated minor league stadium practically in my back yard.

I guess that really just leaves me with the daunting task of taking down my Christmas lights.

Where's the option for NOTHING! I've already done everything on that list. Yes. Even the ice cream.

I already went camping once this year, but I need to get more camping time in. It's just been too darn hot for it.

We generally camp in the spring and fall to avoid the heat and bugs -and the crowds. Missed our spring trip this year, so really looking forward to September.

Sit outside.

There have been so many mosquitoes this year. There has been no time of the day or night that you can sit outside without being bit.

The county has sprayed for them north, south and east of here, but not here.

We even need to have bug spray on to walk the dog.

WE LURV YOU TOO! Dork!!!

I keep having my oldest son inflate my inflatable pool with the intentions of me sitting outside in it with a cocktail or some sort of light refreshment...only to have him drain the pool and deflate it like 2 days later. I still need to get my behind in that pool while the temperatures are still around 100!

*I* have FIVE Quality Posts! no, seriously...how did that happen?!

I believe that was the same person who decided "Back to School Sale"s would start in June before the kids are out of school.
