Well, Mr Ed, obviously your loins were not adequately girded before going up there and you only have yourself to blame.

Hello UnHooked Nice to hear from you. About this time last year, I went through a pretty bad time. In the past, I would have chain-smoked through the experience, but I never really considered ending my quit. And I came through the other side all the stronger for it as well. If you come back here soon to party and make us laugh, then that's the Unhooked that we know and love. However, if you come back in need of help, that's fine too, because you have done more than enough here to take something back.. By the way, it's all very well you going off, but you left me stuck up the tree from the last party :p [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]2/13/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 718 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 21,540 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] �5,385.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 117 [B]Hrs:[/B] 1 [B]Mins:[/B] 24 [B]Seconds:[/B] 58

"Girding your loins" is a metaphor for preparing for something...for running, for battle, for whatever. It's mentioned in the Bible several times, and if you google it, you will see that it generally meant tucking up your skirt/dress/toga so that you could move about more quickly. So Gen is preparing/getting ready for a rowdy party, I guess.
