Three random facts:

[freckledcutie]

1. I just had a thought

2. It's about fruitcake

3. Although I love fruit cake, I have heard so many jokes about them over the years and I was thinking that Death or Aldona could plug up her toilet with a fruitcake...it would probably be better than a pipe that's the wrong size

[Bugitha]

1. Someone offering me a job assumed that since I have graduated from college, I've at least had a basic accounting course. Uh . . .no. I thought about it, but you know, medieval art was being offered at the same time and my degree is pretty much a monument to impracticality, so . . .uh . . . no accounting.

2. I'm sick of being sick.

3. I have 3 rolls of film to get developed. The last time I got around to developing a roll of film was a year ago. The last time I remember actually putting pictures into an album was in 1997.

2. I'm almost done with the coffee, which means it's almost time for laundry.

2. I often feel like a lone voice whenever I comment about nness stuff and I often feel like noone reads my comments anyway

3. I am feeling oddly disconnected from the whole scene today.... like maybe I'm ready to go underground for awhile...

1: i think kittymao just made the first sesame street reference i've seen on nervousness

2: " Nness is a strange little monkey." hm.. interesting choice of words, DOA

1: "Top 5 peculiarities of the local culture where you live?" from tom in the top five thread- i want him to answer that about where *I* live... because it all seems so normal to me, but apparently, it isn't....

2: "i'm going to add another new years resolution - to keep track (for curiosity's sake) of all the nervousers i send/receive mail from this year." - i am going to steal alison's idea and change my current system for keeping track- it has led me to forget one (that i know of- to nikkij but it is sent) PIF that i owed, which i only found because of one that i forgot (that i know of- from medeous, funky fibres) that i was owed!!! i thought i was very organized but i guess i found out that i am not...

3: "2. I bought a Hershey's with almonds. I thought I might with a Mini Cooper full of Hershey's chocolate. I didn't" i know that the only reason SK bought a chocolate bar is for the chance to win a car.... it's the only reason *I* buy 'em, right??? :P

1. I want to borrow Medeous's mama. My mama never takes me anywhere.

1. right after i read this, my mama called and told me that i could use her credit card to buy a new mattress if i needed one and couldn't afford it while they're on sale.

2. i think the real reason my mama wants to make sure my mattress is okay is that is the bed she sleeps in when she comes to visit...and she's coming next week.

3. the real reason i'm not buying a new mattress with my mama's credit card is NOT that i am an independent adult, but my house is too messy to have the delivery guys in.

bonus fact: i must clean my messy house before my mama and her credit card come visiting.

[hammerquill]

3. the real reason i'm not buying a new mattress with my mama's credit card is NOT that i am an independent adult, but my house is too messy to have the delivery guys in.

Gosh, that sounds familiar...

1. I desperately need a new mattress.
2. I got almost no sleep last night (only in small part because of #1).
3. I got a very strange sort of fevery sleep the night before, and was fully awake at four AM.

1. for the first 2 years we were together, my hubs and I shared my little twin mattress :P

2. I'm still hungry

3. i'm still worried that the landlord may stop by :blink:

[Cuilanië]

- My hair's still a bit curly around the temples. :)

[Christine_0701]

[Katiekat]

1. I just saw one of the most beautiful wedding set-ups on TLC's "For Better or For Worse." Her dress, his suit, and all the arrangements were beautiful -- the team should be proud!

2. Last night I saw 2 people that I hadn't seen in years -- one was a friend of a friend who I hadn't seen for about 7 years (maybe more?!) and the other was a guy who I took photography with at JuCo. We recognized each other at first, but had absolutely no idea where we knew each other from. He figured it out, and I am still very impressed by that.

3. I think I will nickname one of my Stupid Creatures "Hootlecootch."

4. I wish I had a magic room-cleaning fairy.

[Seusomon]

1. The post total Eve said was a palindrome was 3,022 :huh:

2. The Hammerquill avatar Eve said was new looks the same as always to me. :huh:

3. "pink" and "overexposed" can be good things. ;)

[hammerquill]

Seusomon needs to reload my avatar. Or perhaps he has a very malleable memory... ;)
My banana bread (which I made today, not two days ago when I first mentioned the possibility) just got cool enough to eat. Mmm.
I like my insulated travel mug: it kept my coffee warm enough to have with my banana bread...

- I like this avatar of yours better than the others you've used recently, Tom. :)

Bonus - I still wish I could have some of that banana bread... That's a favourite from my childhood, and my mother never made it often enough... :D

[Death_Or_Aldona]

three|
i'm addicted to livejournal.

[Insomniac_Lullabye]

This was so much fun to read... y'all are like real people now.

I'll abide by the starter's rule and share:

1) I used to read the phone book for entertainment. Yes, really.

2) I have an unreasonable terror/phobia about bridges over bodies of water. It's a combo deal... a bridge doesn't bother me, lakes/oceans, I love, but driving over a bridge that is over water..... (shudder)

3) I come across as pragmatic and down to earth, but in reality, I am dreamy and romantic and long for kindred spirits, just like Anne of Green Gables.

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. I woke up to cat puke. There's nothing better than cleaning up kitty puke first thing in the morning. :P

[Death_Or_Aldona]

[thunderstorm_19]

1. dad's back

2. dad's flight (due 6ish last night) was overbooked, so they compensated him (400 english pounds), to take a later flight. due in at 10:20pm (times being times here) last night. At 10:10pm, I looked at the clock, and said to mum: how is dad getting home? Meaning from the airport, cuz he'd been dropped off there when he left, and so his car was here at home.

3. Mom and I both fell over laughing. When we composed ourselves, mom was able to tell me that prior agreement had been made that he would take a cab.

[thunderstorm_19]

[thunderstorm_19]

1... grrrrrrrhh... someone on a collection of mine hasn't answered Q's in a month... and i've had some difficulty (eventually resolved) with the person before...

2... it still might be ok... contributions are due to be mailed within 9 days of now. that's a deadline already extended from the original. i'm not waiting for stragglers who don't communicate.

3... each contribution is ATCs, each participant combines the styles of 2 different artists, and i'll be really disappointed if one falls through.

[Dalmaney]

1. Jordan flies home tomorrow morning, but I will be in class so tonight will be the last time I see him until reading week.

2. I already have a ride to and from Calgary for Reading Week.

2. I'll have to wait until next friday, then, because I won't be going to any stores until then

3. It's raining right now, and I almost (not quite) miss the snow.

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. I have all these cats! I'm covered in them! There are two on my lap and one snuggled up close to me.

2. Sometimes they have no bones. When I try to pick one up to free up my lap they go all limp and flop back down.

3. Sometimes I play the "you have no butt" game. I hold the bottom half of a cat in the air while it tries to lay on me....they never mind...they just flop down and get comfy while their bottom half is hanging out in the air :P must be easy to get comfy when you have no bones...

2. i was just thinking about the day in grade 10 art class when i shook the bottle of white tempera paint (you know, big bottle of cheap paint), because we had been told to shake it before pouring... well the thing I forgot was to make sure that the cap was on the bottle before i shook it... it wasn't

3. i have a lottery ticket (bingo) that i won $3 on, which i keep forgetting to take in and redeem

2: i should be making supper... alas, i have no desire to move from here and do actual work... ;)

3: i will when it's crunch time... :lol:

[littlest-bee]

1 I picked 5 splinters out of my Daddy's fingers tonight

2 I spent 1.5 hours in the bath today

3 I heard somewhere that the glue they use for envelopes is made from animal parts - does anyone know if that's true?!

[Dalmaney]

1. I have already made supper, but now I should go eat it.
2. I wish I was eating it with the Boy, but I will see him at church in an hour.
3. The Boy leaves tomorrow. Tomorrow is also the day I hope to implement a hardcore long distance phone package.

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. :) I call my hubs "the boy." He calls me "the girl."

2. That's as close as we come to having cute pet names for each other

3. all of this food talk is torture. I'm maaad hungry

[nymphette]

1: i am hungry too... i've had turkey soup today.... that's it...

[bluecrayon]

[Bugitha]

1. Hey, I'm watching figure skating, too!

2. This morning I felt so sick I considered going to urgent care. Suddenly I'm feeling a lot better though. My throat feels a lot better, my cough has subsided a bit, and I'm suddenly ravenous. I hope the improvement is real, and not just the Dayquil I took 3 hours ago finally kicking in.

3. Its my half-birthday today.

[Seusomon]

Oooh... is there a petition we can sign about that, too?

I have done very little that needed doing this weekend.

Though I don't really feel like it, I have tricked myself into having to make a very serious dinner tonight (by defrosting a whole chicken).

I finally bought a 2004 calendar today (Sierra Club Wilderness Calendar, the only calendar that ever feels right, since my grandmother always used to buy them for the whole family... now, looking at January's picture, I want to go to this national park in British Columbia).

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. when i went to feed my fish, she didn't come up to eat :huh:

2. now i only have 6 pets

3. :(

[medeous]

1. there are 3 two truths and a lie threads.

2. kittymao has a loveletter in her purse and i wish i had one in my purse.

3. i've listened to the same CD over and over ever since i got it on friday.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. there was an article in yesterday's paper that pissed me off, so I'm writing to the editor about it.

2. responses are supposed, by their guidelines, to be under 200 words.

3. i'm obsessing that mine is 10 words over.

[kittymao]

ehgi eghi bah bah. I think I have cotton candy in my hair.

I got a spiffy new sweater- thick as a jacket with big buttons and pockets! My bf found it for me in the clearance section for $10. I love that boy. He knows how to shop.

I need to make one of those appointments soon. And I need to make a call about financial aid. And something about my ATM card. Oo, sounds like Tomorrow's gonna be a Phone Day.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. got 208 words on that reply i've been working on for a couple hours. then sent it.

2. i hate crime dramas.

3. it's cold in this basement.

1. since i'm sure you know who sent it to you...
i'm really glad you like it :rolleyes:

2. i've never been very good at being sneaky sneaky

3. i've been on this site pretty much all day :P i just don't know what to do with myself

[Katiekat]

1. I was struck by the thought that one day, hopefully, I will fall in love with someone whose parents I will get along with. This thought excites me.

2. I just might wear a skirt to work tomorrow.

3. I surprised myself today by realizing that I miss Steve (another bartender at the Peanut who I've grown to really like).

[Christine_0701]

1. The 30th Annual People Choice Awards are on

2. I just finished watching Maid in Manhattan

3. Before that (Actually, half way through) I went and helped Charlene take out her briads...she got extensions put in.

[cindi1023]

1. Bugitha & I have the same birthday.

2. I got almost NO nness stuff done this weekend, despite my expectation to work on catching up and getting ahead...

3. For some reason when I wear socks around the house, my left sock always wiggles around and ends up with the heel of the sock on top of my foot. But it stops there and doesn't continue wiggling back around to where it's supposed to be. So I turn it back around, and it starts wiggling again. My right sock stays exactly where it's supposed to be. I even tried switching the socks to different feet, but I guess it's my feet that's doing it.... Does this even make any sense? I need to go to bed.... :blink:

You need to be careful saying things like that on a mail art website, medeous... Someone's liable to make an LMAO on the subject. ;)

1. My eyes are extremely sensitive to onions. I was positively blinded for a minute or two after cutting up two of them earlier.

2. I have used up all my saffron. Didn't quite have enough, either.

3. There're leftovers for tomorrow :)

[bluecrayon]

1. heh heh -- I have a love letter in my BAG -- I don't carry a purse!

2. I ate cereal for dinner -- I DO have a whole jar of saffron, though.

3. I think we might have "discussed" things for 4 hours tonight... yikes.

i'm really glad you like it :rolleyes:

1. *gasp* was that you, d_o_a?? i never would've guessed! :D

2. freedy johnston opened for billy bragg at mississippi nights in um...1999? and i was there.

3. last night, nan and i studied for her D.A.R.E. test. she's sure she won't pass and wants to skip school today(!) so she won't have to take it. of course, she'll pass it and do quite well. i don't know where she got her melodramatic streak. :rolleyes:

[thunderstorm_19]

1. so in response to the article about contaminants in farmed salmon, there's 4 responses in the paper today (not mine), one is from a fish farmer, who obviously has no clue about the contaminants. He's like 'well they're tiny amounts' and that's about all he says. UGGGGGGHHHH... shouldn't some level of environmental toxicology be required in whatever post-secondary courses one would take to become a fish farmer...

2. I have reams of environmental info to go through, and I want to make a list of all the websites (i posted about a similar list i want to make before), but i don't know how best to do it... i don't have excel on this computer.

3. dad's listening to the UK radio station classic FM on his computer.

[Dalmaney]

1. Today is going to be a very long day because:
I have class at 830 until 1130.
I have to finish a lab I suck at because I never did the prereq course.
I have a lab at 430 I should be at mostly 'cause
I have a meeting at 530 that I have to take minutes for.

And then I will try to find a bus to bring me home and put me to bed.

2. I will not be talking to the Boy today, as he will be talking to various people in Calgary. Such as the girls that drove him here. He forsees a considerable decline in both of our popularities with such people.

3. It's probably good that I am way to tired to want to do any serious talking. I should just wait for eight pm and get me to bed.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. it's really the regulations on what farmed fish are fed that needs to changed...

2. with a basic knowledge of the contaminants in question, this would be obvious to most fish farmers...

3. it snowed last night

[sarahkate]

1. I called in sick to work today.

2. I'm not really sick ;)

3. However, I do have lots of N'ness stuff that needs to be packaged up to be mailed out today and brought to the post office. That means I should pry myself away from the chain games while I get done what needs to be finished. :(

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- I was very close to calling in sick (and I am not sick) this morning.

-2- I didn't do it, because I only have an hour of sick leave right now, and three personal days that I am trying very hard to save for actual emergencies or horrible days.

-3- If I used a personal day every time I didn't feel like getting out of bed in the morning, I would need at least 150 personal days per year. :P

[nymphette]

1: chris isnt' at work yet

2: it's 'his' monday (he gets every second monday am off becuase he works the saturday before) to work and he has to be there at 8 instead of 9.... he was up at 7:10 and gone shortly after (i was dozing, so not sure exactly when)...

3: i called his work to ask where the cheque book is for the milkman and his boss said he wasnt' there yet...

4: i am soon, like in ten minutes or so, going to be either absolutely panicking that he's dead in a ditch somewhere or completely pissed off that he isn't at work... i called his work over a half hour ago...

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. If my hubs doesn't get his financial aid check today we are screwed :huh:

2. Being screwed means that the electric company may terminate our service and the landlord will be very very unhappy (I'm still worried he's gonna stop by at any time.) It also means that we'll have to get food from the free food pantry :P right now all we have to eat is plain macaroni. Winter is always yucky for us :P

3. I'm a week "late." I don't even want to begin to think about what this could mean...*sigh*

Ah well...I'm just gonna suck it up. Things always get better. I should know by now that they always get worse before they get better....

[nymphette]

1: sending DOA hugs and good vibes... happy thoughts, butterflies floating on a breeze... love and tenderness.... hm... i hope her week/month gets better!!!! i hate ti hear about bad stuffs happening to good peoples!!!!

2: my husband is still MIA.. i am at the 'he-better-hope-he's-dead-in-a-ditch-cuz-i'll-kill-him' part of my usual getting pissed off at him becuse he's missing......

3: gimme another half hour and i'll be calling the cops and hospitals.....

:(

men

[chunkymonkey]

1. I started writing in my live journal... probably won't keep it up though.

2. I slept the wrong way last night and now my neck is paying for it. :blink:

3. Thinking good thoughts for everyone this morning :)

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- Now I am full of worry for DOA and for nymphette's Chris.

-2- My aunt just put me in charge of games for my almost-sister-in-law's bridal shower. I hope I come up with something fun.

-3- I am very nearly caught up on all of the terrible work that was bogging me down last week. Now that my desk is clear on the job, I am hoping I will be able to do the same thing at home with nervousness stuff.

[bluecrayon]

1. Insomnia kept me up way past 3am so I am way tired this morning and off schedule.

2. I bumped lots of stuff back up into the present on the chain games...

3. I am working through heart thoughts and those are always the most difficult to wander through...

[Christine_0701]

1. i don't know why I'm up this early, when I don't have class until 5:30

2. i have to go buy a book for class today, and read two stories in it by tomorrow at 11:30

3. i had a really strange messed up totally-not-linked-but-connected-in-so,e-demented-way kind of dream last night

[tanagee]

1. I should be getting my daughter up to go to her play group, but instead I am here.

2. I love to pop bubble wrap

3. I have a '68 Camaro up on blocks in my backyard.

[nymphette]

sharkie version 1.0

1: the only thing you have to worry about regarding chris is whether i will kill him when i find out he's fine and was actually OFF this week and didnt realized it and then decided to go to his brother's and play games for hte morning instead of calling me and telling me he mixed up his weeks.... cuz then i'll be in jail and you'll never get your treat i'm working on... ;)

2: my favorite briday shower game is 'played' after the bride opens her gifts- you write down little exclamations she makes while she opens her gifts- oh, that's so big!!! where did you ever find one of those-i've never seen one before!!! wow!!! i can't wait to try this!!! i've always wanted this but was just never got around ot getting one!!! - etc.... and then you announce that you have a list of things that you know 'bride' is going to say to 'groom' on their wedding night... the best one at krystal's wedding was "oh my god- i am going to be using this, a LOT!!!!" ... it was a sushi tool set i believe... :P

3: july 14th is shark awareness day... i can't vouch for the truth behind that but it says it here- http://www.zasx.com/zany-calendar.html?mm=7

:)

That is so funny! I will have to do that one.

As for Shark Awareness Day: cool! I will definitely be celebrating that one. :wub:

Please don't go to jail, Robyn!

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- I am happy that Sarahkate gets a day off, but I miss her when she's not here all day like I am.

-2- Next Monday is Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, and I am off work.

-3- I actually overheard my least-favorite co-worker saying that getting a day off is the only thing MLK Jr. was good for. What a horrible racist bitch!

[nymphette]

1: julian is the nintendo master.... i let him play for a half hour or so a day (it would be all day if he or his father had their ways....) he also knows his way round a computer better than my 8 year old nephew and my mom... pretty sad... though i have to say that that is my mom's doing- he is only allowed a half hour on the computer too... i prefer him to be playing, or drawing/coloring than sititng on the computer or playing games- my mom lets him do whatever he wants and it drives me apeshit!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o

2: no word from chris... i have just about morphed back into worrying mode.... though not quite..... :angry:

3: if he lied to me about working this morning, and it wasn't an honest mistake and then he just irresonsibly disappeared wherever until it was really time to go to work, i really will divorce him. i implemented a zero tolerance for lying policy last week... doesnt' matter how big or how small... lying is his defence mechanism- he thinks i'll be less mad if he lies about whatever it is i am mad about then just telling my what/why it was.... which makes me madder, because i always know or find out about the lies... stupid shit too... anyhow. done ranting i think. but he's gone if he lied.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i feel like a complete genius. (ok...well...)

2. it's a creative make-a-mess day.

3. i thought i'd get some cleaning up done today.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. no mail for me

2. i'm surprised dad hasn't bitched at me for the mess yet

3. i hate wanting to do 40 things at once and therefore not being able to concentrate on any of them

[nymphette]

1: i think i will wear a trail in the carpet from the living room/kitchen area to the computer room i go back and forth so often!!!! :P

2: chain gaming is great therapy... and cheap...

3: i am drinking diet pepsi with a maraschino cherry in it... dont' know why but this amuses me....

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

1. I am wearing a pair of Ryder Sandals

2. They are falling apart

3. I am glad these were free sandals as they've been falling apart since day 2 of ownership (I got them free when I got a gym membership)

1. I wish I had no idea by what you meant by screwed but unfortunatly.....

2. I also worry about the electric company and my very angry landlord (12 days late...eeep!!)

3. At least I have a cat purring on my lap to calm me down

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i need ideas for Earth Day (can't leave these things to the last minute!)

2. terry's chocolate orange snowballs are really yummy

3. i need a good way of storing business cards

[nymphette]

1: harrison hs started to say 'mama' well... mmmmmommommm is actually it.. but i know it stands for mama... he wont' say it if i bug him to- he'll say 'buh buh' instead... which stands for baby... or bye bye... becuase he started to say it first when looking in a mirror and waving to himself... :) i think he's saying baby though because i lways say 'say hello to the baby' not bye bye... he's quite a teaste- he waits until i guve up on hearing it and leave him alone, then he'll say it to get me interested agian.. pretty smart cookie boy...

2: this makes me infinitely happy and amused... :P another thing we werent' sure he'd ever do!!!!

3: he's going to do eveyrthng, i know it!!!! he'll just be a bit behind... he's at about a 9-10 month old level.... though still not crawling- but julian didn't crawl until 10 months.... <shrug> who's to say what is 'normal' anyhow.......

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- Ahhh, it's great to know that Harrison already has the mommy-manipulation thing down pat. ;)

-2- You people need to stop telling me how cute your kids are before I go and do something stupid like wanting one of my own.

-3- I am deeply curious about whether Robyn is drawing up divorce papers right now, or if Chris has gotten in touch and explained his feeble self.

[nymphette]

1: both... he called me at lunch before he left work to run some errands... he was at work, but downstairs working on the company's website, without a phone and with no way except for msn which he never turns on to get ahold of him, which i have asked him repeatedly to turn on when he's down there in case i need to get ahold of him becuse there is nobody in the office upstairs who is able to pass a phone message on reliably or willing to go downstairs to get him.... all of which has been beaten like a dead horse already but i proceeded to take him to task about anyhow... big argument, i was getting madder at him becuse i looke dlike an idiot when the milkman came and i was still hunting for cheques taht, as it turned out, HE had at work with him, and he was supposed to write a note to the milkman and leave a cheque in an envie on the door last niht, but he wanted to do it this morning before work and we argued last night that he would forget (i said) but he insisted he'd do it on the way out and then he forgot.... and instead of saying i'm sorry (i dont' even need him to say, yes you were right.... just apologize for screwing up becuase it turned into this big thing that was too much bigger htan it acutally was, you know???) he just gets all defensive.. and that makes me madder............ anyhow.. i hung up on him.. and it turns out that i hung the phone up wrong and it' sbeen off the hook the past 3 hours.... or so...

2: fights like this wouldnt' be so bad if he ever came home with flowers to apologize.... but he never does...

3: of course, if he did, i am sure that i would just get mad at him for wasting money on flowers for me... because i have come to the conclusion that i am bitter and unhappy and nothing makes me satisfied.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. the forums are TOOOOOOOOOOOOO QUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET.

2. i KNEW used postage would come in handy...

3. time to work on some zeitgeist stuff...

[stargal1998]

1. I love The Smoking Gun (http://www.thesmokinggun.com/doc_o_day/doc_o_day.html)

2. I'm thinking I need to go to Wendy's for dinner.

3. Nick gets home on Weds, and I am hoping he'll be brave enough to go to the grocery store, because I hate going there.

[nymphette]

1: i am having fun with the artistic survivor game!!!!

2: i just posted my answers to the week#2 questions... they were great questions!!!

3: then i went back to the messages to read what everyone else has written- and sided triangles are very similar to mine!!!! or i guess mine are very similar to hers.. his?? who is sidedtriangle?? :o how come i dont' know??? i think i need a nap!!!!! PLASTIKVODKA!!!!! d'oh!!!

[Seusomon]

1. I think my headache today comes from oversleeping, then geeting up too suddenly in reaction.

2. I'm still slogging through my page proofs; my coathor has gone through them all already - she seems to have more time available than I do.

3. I've started parking across the canyon from where I work again, to get more exercise.

[Christine_0701]

1. my muscles are sore today, from doing tae bo yesterday

2. i hate hate hate night classes. they make the day seem to go by sooooo sloooooowly

3. i can buy most of my books off of amazon.ca and save myself a bundle of $$

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. My plan for the rest of the day is to take a muscle relaxer and just...well...relax.

2. I hear a ringing...it sounds like the alarm clock or a phone ringing in the distance. I'm pretty sure It's all in my head.

3. I do hear lots of sirens. I can't tell if they are police, ambulance or fire truck. They're too far away- wait...fire truck. Definitely fire truck...

[cindi1023]

1. I'm the first one to post on this thread in almost 4 hours.... what is the world coming to?

2. My hubs is downstairs watching the replay of The Sureal Life. I had to come upstairs to put at least a 1-floor buffer between me and that garbage. Blech! It makes me sick!

3. I'm such a reality show hypocrite. I'll watch just about anything (Americal Idol, Survivor, What Not To Wear, The Real World, etc., etc., etc.), but there's just something about a show combining Vanilla Ice, That C.H.I.P.S guy, Tammy Faye Baker, Ron Jeremy and some other D-level "celebrities" that makes me want to vomit...

[cindi1023]

1. I went to Michael's this weekend and spent WAY too much money.

2. Money I didn't have.

3. My Visa and Mastercard banks love me. They make a ton of money from me...

[cindi1023]

1. On the plus side, most of what I bought was from the clearance aisle.

2. I bought 9 mounted rubber stamps, 4 stamp pads, some multi colored stamp "daubbers", some iron-on patches & some ribbon, all from the clearance section.

3. The rest of the items I bought were for LMAO's I'm trying to get up the nerve to host.

[cindi1023]

1. I wonder what the record for consequetive 3 random facts posts made by the same member is?

2. Frankly, I'm not willing to go back through 327 pages of posts to find out...

3. If anyone knows off the top of their head (or you feel the need to go through 327 pages of posts to find out), please let me know.

[Dalmaney]

1. I think I am starting to learn what exactly "postmodern" means.
2. I am absolutely pathetic and waiting for the phone to ring. I have been assured that it will... but the nagging feeling of patheticness remains.
3. I spent twelve hours at school today, only three of which were in class.

[cindi1023]

1. I received a wonderful and thoughtful RAoK in the mail this weekend, and wish I knew who to thank for it.

2. I know that's the point - you're not supposed to be able to figure it out... but I would like to tell that person thank you....

3. THANK YOU, whoever you are!

[cindi1023]

1. Hi Dalmaney & DoA!

2. Dalmaney messed up my string of posts.... so I'll just have to come up with lots more randomness. :P

3. Plus, I wasn't able to post much from work today, so I've got to boost up my post numbers.... :D

[cindi1023]

1. Dalmaney & DoA left before they saw me shout "HI".

2. Now I feel a little like I've waved to someone I thought was looking right at me, but it turns out they were waving to to person behind me, so now I feel like a complete idiot.... :P

3. I'm ready for spring.

[cindi1023]

1. Now I'm worried that some of you will be reading all these posts tomorrow and feel a little sorry for me since I was sitting here, all alone in the Three Random Facts thread talking to myself....

2. Please don't do that!

3. Sometimes it's nice to sit in an empty room and listen to your voice echo....echo....echo....

[cindi1023]

1. My stupid CD burner has finally crapped-out for good.

2. &#$)(*)#*&) CD burner! #)&*$)(@#!!! Just when I needed you, you let me down!

3. Now I think I'm just being silly! Maybe it's time to move to another thread....

[kittymao]

I love this thread. It's my favorite one- I come here after a long weekend and catch up with people here.

I don't have too much to say- Most of my day was spent playing Need For Speed: Underground. Which probably isn't the greatest way to learn to drive as it involves souping up import cars and racing illegally on city streets. On the plus side, you get bonuses for NOT hitting cars.

I'm having dinner for wendy's tonight. eR. scratch that. reverse it.

[medeous]

1. we went out to eat tonight.
2. i had potato soup and half a turkey sammich
3. nan had chicken which she picked into tiny bits and didn't eat and fries which she didn't even pretend to eat.

[medeous]

1. we sat in a booth
2. i am convinced that booths have a skinny side and a fat side
3. i am also convinced that the waitresses think it's funny to put me on the skinny side

[medeous]

1. i always ask for water when the waitress offers me a drink.
2. so does nan
3. i think they think i'm cheap, but really we just like water

[medeous]

1. the place we went to is called malones
2. they serve the kids meals in a frisbee
3. i've stretched one non-event into several posts

[medeous]

1. because the waitress thought i was cheap, she didn't ask us about dessert
2. we went by krispy kreme on the way home
3. once when we went to krispy kreme, the person before us ordered 5 dozen doughnuts and then we just ordered two...just two, not two dozen...and the guy thought i was broke, i guess, cause he gave 'em to me free

[medeous]

1. they weren't free tonight
2. i'm just going to keep posting until someone interrupts me
3. i won a door prize at our staff meeting today

[medeous]

1. our meetings are really boring, so we have to sign in and out and they give out snacks and doorprizes just to get people to attend

2. the thing i won was dumb and i won't ever use it, but i suppose a classroom teacher might

3. i gave it to one of the fourth grade teachers

[medeous]

1. DoA is here now
2. i've decided to leave out the underscores in her name so that it's easier to type
3. i found my red flip flops way under my desk with a bunch of socks in a little dog nest.

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. I'm really enjoying medeous's posts.

2. I'm imagining her saying everything in a low mumbling monotone

3. I hope that my post doesn't mean she's going to stop. I just thought she may like to know that she's making me smile...

[medeous]

1. i can't think of anything else to say
2. i have stage fright
3. suddenly i see myself as stephen wright with breasts

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. I often find myself staring at the quizzes and questions section...just staring. All the words kind of meld into one blurry picture. It all turns to gibberish.

2. My husband is playing super metroid. It reminds me too much of the past...I don't like to think about the past much.

3. I think it will be bedtime fairly soon. Not that I'm sleepy or anything...I'm just feeling spacey and blah....

[hammerquill]

1. medeous seems determined to keep everyone's image of her as confused as possible.

2. I am sure this is part of the plot.

3. The foot of this chair has now viciously attacked my toes twice tonight.

(bonus fact: I'm considering founding a branch of the Nonsequitur Society right here on this very thread)

[medeous]

1. i don't consider myself very cryptic at all
2. i have a guest room
3. it's really just whatever room i don't happen to be sleeping in at the time

[hammerquill]

1. I never said anything about medeous being cryptic... just for a long time she was a sock monkey, then she showed us pictures she claimed were of herself, then she turned into a dog, now ...stephen wright with breasts. It's all very confusing.

2. I went to work today.

3. The motto of the Nonsequitur Society is "We may not make a lot of sense, but we like pizza."

[bluecrayon]

I've been accused of being cryptic -- but I don't know where cryptic hides in a loop.

I'm stapled to the floor with some kind of gravity experiment God is tinkering with right now

I wonder what made jonnynobody choose that name....

[hammerquill]

1. Bluecrayon's loops are strange and tangled (these are Hofstadterian terms), which is why she sometimes appears cryptic. Other times, it's because she's being cryptic.

2. I have participated in similar gravity experiments in the past. I wonder when the results will be published.

3. I believe jonnynobody already answered that question somewhere.

[medeous]

1. i think hammerquill is feeling better - he seems perky.

2. i imagine he will be taken aback at being called perky.

3. it makes me want to call him other silly things.

[hammerquill]

:o :o :o

1. I am filled with dread at medeous's #3.

2. I am only halfway through the half-bottle of wine.

3. Having seen medeous's #3, it would take more than a few bottles of wine to get me to post my results on her Authentic Indian Names thread.

[medeous]

1. saul rosy girdle

2. drago frosty banana

3. rodney philosophical wolverine

bonus: charles submergible minnow

[nymphette]

1: i'm partial to saul rosy girdle.... not sure why.... even saul for short!!! :P

2: medeous cracks me up... i want to attend her staff meetings.... i've never won a door prize at work!!! :o

3: i could picture cindi and her waving... and maybe trying to cover it up with a nose scratch.. no, i wasn't waving at you either.. i had an itchy nose....

[hammerquill]

1. Luckily, medeous has not yet used the version of my name that I used.

2. I'm not sure where Rodney Philosophical Wolverine came from, but I don't mind it much. I kinda like the idea of Philosophical Wolverines...

3. I'm fully aware this is only encouraging her.

[medeous]

1. gregory chubby ferret

2. edson sequined buffalo

3. todd styrofoam goat

[bluecrayon]

1. my server crashed tonight and I missed his messages...

2. I feel totally enraged when the server goes down, when the power goes out, when the electricity dies, when my car breaks down on the freeway...

3. I wish to live outside the grid and under the radar and anonymously... but I know it would be a lonely life.

[Christine_0701]

1. i have to write a 1000 feature article

2. i didn't get the topic i initially wanted, but got an equally good one

3. i have no fricken clue where to start

[Dalmaney]

1. Whatever the Boy and I were for a whole five days, we aren't any more.
2. I am suprisingly okay with that.
3. I really don't have the time or energy to be anything buy okay with that, so it's a relief.

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

1. I accidentally left my iPod at work last night.

2. I didn't realize this until this morning before I left home, and I was in a panic.

3. The iPod was safe and sound in my desk when I arrived this morning, which is great, because Chris literally would have stopped speaking to me for a month if I lost the iPod.

i sympathise with this hatred of power cuts.

1. i had a COW when we had the big blackout that lasted (for us) 12.5 hours back in august.

2. however. the blessing in it was all the house lights and street lights were out, and we could see stars, upon stars, upon stars. Many faint ones that we usually can't see even on the clearest nights in the city.

3. it was also during the perseid meteor shower. so we got to see a meteor.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. my brain decided last night to go haywire on me, spewing ideas i had to jot down so that i could start on them today.

2. it's so frustrating when that happens.

3. i'm supposed to email someone and make an appointment with her (she's a career counsellor), but i can't find her business card.

-1- I am happy that Sarahkate gets a day off, but I miss her when she's not here all day like I am.

1. Aww! :D I feel so loved!!! :wub: Love ... it's a good thing. (said in a Martha Stewart voice)

2. Guess who called in sick to work today? Yup, that's right... me! ^_^

3. Guess who didn't get all the Nervousness stuff done & mailed out like she said she would yesterday? Yup, that's right... me! <_<

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- I have the most frustrating complexion in the whole world. I am breaking out, yet my skin is dry and thirsty because of the cold weather. It's disgusting.

-2- Last night I dreamed that I almost got chomped by a shark. It was very exciting! I think that is the first time I have dreamed of a shark and remembered it.

-3- Before he woke up Sunday, three or four times Chris was talking in his sleep. He kept asking, "Do you want any of those records?" It was very funny. When I told him what he'd said, he got this funny grin on his face. He loves it when he talks in his sleep.

[stargal1998]

1. I want an I-pod, but my computer runs on Win 98 SE (most stable for me, and I've ducked away from changes thus far), and for the first time I am thinking of switching...

2. My nose is stuffed up.

3. Nick's coming back tomorrow! :-)

1. urg!! me too

2. I was lazy last night and scarffed down a tuna melt.

3. I will workout today... IwillIwillIwill!

[Sirius]

1. I have lots to do coming back into the real world after a four day hiatius so I am trying not to go back and read all the posts from when I was gone.

2. I am sure someone will let me know if I missed anything.

3. I had a wonderful trip that I can tell you about in thirty second intervals medeous style....

[Sirius]

Road Trips often cause me gustatory terror. Never knowing if I will find something I will enjoy.

Often I find gustatory dull places to stop –just to be safe.

Occasionally, I go out on a limb, and am surprised by the gustatory pleasure I am rewarded with. Natch.

[Sirius]

1. One of the hotels I stayed in had a tv guide, and in the article I read, they used the word Natch.

2. That was the same hotel room that was near a train crossing, and every hour, literally, all night, I was awakened by the sound of a train horn. It sounded like it was going to come threw the hotel. This was a recommended hotel.

3. It was odd to wake up and go to the car and have to improvise an ice scrapper. Living in Phoenix I have no need for owning one.

[Sirius]

1. I took a tour of a Gold Mine. I wore a funny hard hat. I managed not to think about how many people had worn the hat before me. It was blue.

2. I got ice cream in a town called Oatman, which is really just one little street. One little street where they let burros run wild, and they sell carrots to the tourists.

3. I need a gimmik like that so I can open my own little town and sell stuff to tourists.

[Sirius]

1. I actually counted to thirty before trying to post that time. It didn't work.

2. I like my new avatar a lot, but I don't recognize it as me.

3. That does not mean I want someone else to use it.

[Sirius]

1. I also went to Grand Canyon Caverns. It's in the middle of nowhere on Route 66.

2. You take a tour that starts with an elevator ride that takes you thirty stories underground...then you explore large underground caves.

3. I went on the tour when I was 9, they are still telling the same jokes.

[Sirius]

1. We went to a place called Chloride that is between Kingman and Las Vegas. Just a little tiny town set four miles back off of the highway.

2. We went pass Chloride onto a dirt road, a rare opportunity to use the 4-wheel drive, and followed the path to the murals that have been painted on rocks in the middle of nowhere.

3. We went back into Chloride, a very friendly little place, and had lunch and left town before the shootout at high noon. Yes, it's the type of place to stage a shoot out. We weren't aware of this, until everyone kept asking us if we had come to town for the shoot-out.

[Sirius]

1. We went to Parker Dam. They don't ket you get out and walk anymore. All of the dams are being protected now.

2. We went to Lake Havasu City. Walked around the english village. Walked across the London Bridge.

3. We were outside of the London Bridge Resort, which looks like this very proper castle. All gray stone and fancy windows. Out back everything is painted in these hideous purple, green and fuschia colors, and there is a cage -- for cage dancing. Lake Havasu has become a popular spring break destination. It was quite an odd contrast.

[gwensmom]

1. All this serial posting has made me dizzy

2. I am stuck at home ALL MORNING on my one day off because Gwendad's dog is sick and if you leave him by himself when he is sick he will go on a rampage and tear things up.

3. When I got back from taking Gwen to school he had wadded up (but no damaged) a rug and bitten some wood off of a small wooden chest we use to store Gwens diapers and wipes. It's ok because I was going to get rid of that when we get a new chest of drawers anyway.

[Sirius]

1. We went to the Deer Farm. A place where you pay admission. Buy a cup of food and then go risk your life with the most agressive deer you've ever encountered.

2. Several tried to eat my pashmina. Why would one where a pashmina into a Deer Farm? I had on a jacket and had taken the pashmina in place of a scarf. Just trying to keep warm. They also tried chewing on the bottom of my jacket.

3. Brian found it amusing that the first thing I did when we got home was to put the pashmina and jacket in the washer. They were stiff in the areas that had been attacked by deer.

[Sirius]

1. I am getting tired of hearing myself type.

2. We took a train ride through the Verde Valley.

3. While on the train ride we saw several bald eagles. People seemed to get really excited about that. I learned it was the first time that a lot of people had ever seen one "in real life."

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

1. Rustell, I feel like I went on the vacation with you, attack-deer and all.

2. Why are you an anonymous poster?

3. Oh, my pashmina. I forgot to wear it this fall. I guess I will wait until spring.

[Sirius]

1. The anon thing has to do with how I set my log in for my automatic log in from home. See there's the secret for you...if I am anon you know I am logging in from home. When you can see me I am logging on from somewhere else (work).

2. We only took 191 pictures this trip.

3. The sun was horribly bright even though it was cold, so it was hard to take pictures without the glare of the sun being in the way.

[thunderstorm_19]

3. While on the train ride we saw several bald eagles. People seemed to get really excited about that. I learned it was the first time that a lot of people had ever seen one "in real life."

1. i wanna go to the used book store.

2. mom suggested i take myself there on the bus, which i could do, but i have like 7 books i want to take in with me, and they're heavy. i don't wanna carry them, even in a backpack.

3. one reason for the population decline of bald eagles was eggshell thinning caused by DDT accumulation.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i saw several bald eagles at once, one time. we were driving the Cabot Trail in Nova Scotia.

2. I LOVE nova scotia. I've been there 3 times.

3. i also went whale watching in Nova Scotia.

[Sirius]

1. Christine's fingers must be bruised from trying to close the margin between her and seusomon's posts.

2. Medeous must have seen my holiday as the opportunity to knock me back a step.

3. Good thing it isn't a competition..... ;)

[Sirius]

1. First thing I did upon returning to Nervousness last night was to update my "What's Sirius Doing?" page. I kept trying to "Report" myself when I was actualy trying to edit the posts for updates.

2. Then I answered a slew of questions that had been left.

3. Then this morning I thought I had truly offended people because they had taken away feedback...glad to know it was a glitch. Remember my little thing about leaving negative feedback? All the negative feedback I left is part of what disappeared. It was hard enough to do the first time, i don't want to do it again!

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

1. When I went to my member page this morning and saw that my feedback number was one point lower than it was yesterday, I honestly thought that Rustell had given me negative feedback. (And it would be deserved, yes.)

2. My brother's fiancee is letting my little cousin who barely eats choose the restaurant we're going to on Sunday night. That's a bad idea.

3. Tonight I am going to a yummy Chinese restaurant with my high school girlfriends, Liz and Dawn.

[stargal1998]

1. I think I might need to get something for lunch.

2. I am behind on updating my atc swap rec'd... Must update list tonight!

3. I saw "The Order" with heath ledger last night.

[Christine_0701]

1. My fingers aren't bruised ;)

2. The gap is sloooooowly getting smaller

3. I think I'll be # 1 by friday night

[Seusomon]

1. I think Sarah and Chris make a lovely couple.

2. Two hours from now, I'll be eating an avocado salad.

3. I have too many things to do this week, and I don't think I can do them all.

[Christine_0701]

1. I had a dream last night that my ear came off

2. Does anyone analyze dreams, and know what this means?

3. I'm starting to get back into my strange-deranged dreams, and waking up still tired :huh:

[stargal1998]

1. I LOVE Avacados...except my lips swell up after I eat them.

2. They look really cute swelled up, so I think if I plop a little more lipstick on them next time I can look like a movie star (think Marilyn-era).

3. Okay, so are Sirius and Rustell the same person, or am I just confused??

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

1. "To dream about ears you are being warned to guard against eavesdroppers who mean you harm. Dainty ears that are attractive denotes a person who needs to listen more and talk less. To dream of a pain in your ear means you will hear something that hurts your feeling. " --www.sleeps.com

2. My dreams were a lot more colorful and exciting when I was on risperdal and klonopin.

3. My co-worker just pronounced the composer Wagner's name like "wagner" instead of "vahgner." It was unsettling.

1. You might be careful with that avocado thing, stargal. Food allergies get worse every time you're exposed to the allergen. You don't want to go into anaphylactic shock.

2. My soon-to-be-sister-in-law said that her family fights over who will get to stab her with the epi-pen if she goes into anaphylactic shock. She's allergic to about 15 kinds of food.

3. Yes, Sirius and Rustell are one and the same.

1. I think if I mentioned that particular name, people would wonder who in the world I was talking about. They'd think he was some weird German customer or something.

2. I just had a conversation with my boss through a coworker's intercom on their phone. It was unsettling, but funny. I never left my desk and we carried on a conversation through another cubicle.

3. I'm drafting a proposal to make our website more appealing to customers... woo HOO!

1. okay, now I am really freaked out. I am allergic to a bunch of stuff, and have been all my life. But I weaned myself off of allergy shots and medicine because they didn't seem to help the problem at all. I never even thought of an epi-pen.

2. I'm allergic to nuts (sorta just found out, usually very mild reaction, depending on the nut), bananas, avacados (which I love), cilantro (I tear up), assorted fruits and veggies (cucumbers on occasion), plain milk (skim, not too bad, but if I just have a glass of 1 or 2% I usually have problems.

3. I thought part of it had to do with how restaurants clean things. One day, I'll be fine and then the next time i go, I'll have a reaction...

1. I would be extra-careful about the nut allergy. Those escalate quickly. But I am no doctor, so don't take my word for it. I would just hate for anything to make you really sick.

2. I know it's almost 2 pm because I can't stop yawning.

3. I just laughed myself silly, looking at the website for Reno 911. I love that show-- which was completely unexpected.

[cindi1023]

1. I am really pissed off right now.

2. Several of my coworkers are a$$holes....

3. At least I have one coworker who's as pissed of as I am....

:angry:

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i am also allergic to avocado (mildly)

2. i am allergic to melon (severity depending on type, i can eat sml amts of watermelon)

3. am running low on ATC blanks again, so i'm spending some time cutting some

[gwensmom]

I am pissed off at cindi's co-workers too. they suck.

Gwensdad's dog had to go with me to the post office so he wouldn't tear up the house while I was gone. I am debating whether to take him along when I go to pick up Gwen.

A jar of peanuts appeared on the window ledge by my side door. I think Gwensdad put them there but I am not going to touch it until I can confirm that.

2. i then realized the post was possibly about someone other than me <_<

3. yes, the universe does in fact revolve around me :P

[Cuilanië]

- Hello! :)

- I'm hungry - I just got home, and it's dinner time (way past, in fact)

- I'm sneaking some computer time while Roommate is napping... he was asleep when I walked in.

[Cuilanië]

- I had several pages of random facts to read, due to the simple fact that I was mostly unable to get online yesterday.

- I missed some interesting comments I might have bounced off of. Too late now... :P

- I got three big writing projects out of the way today at work. Might account for a small part of my bounciness tonight.

[Cuilanië]

- I got some Nervous mail today!!! :D

- I need to update my member page - big time.

- There are two packages waiting for me at the post office. I wonder what the second one is... ^_^

[Cuilanië]

- I have a feeling I might no longer be fifth on the top posters list - I'm falling more and more behind.

- I fear Roommate is waking up... hope not.

- I had a random fact I thought about on the Métro ride home, and I've forgotten what it was. :blink:

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- I am dying to know why cindi's coworkers are jerkfaces.

-2- There is a huge amount of billowing black smoke in the sky but I can't find any information online about what it could be! Very frustrating.

-3- Spalding Grey is missing, according to the news. Weird.

[tanagee]

1. I am a bad mommy...My 21 month old can't tell me that Pooh Bears shirt is red, but she knows what boobies are.

2. I too am allergic to bananas...it is conncected to a severe latex sensitivity.

3. I have $34,000 in credit card debt.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i found the email of the woman i'm supposed to make an appointment with, sent an email, and got a reply.

2. gulliver is bored. he won't go out b/c it's too cold. so he's playing with a pipecleaner instead.

3. i ordered some anti-idling window decals yesterday. (want one?)

[Cuilanië]

- I still love that little yellow blinking face... :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink: ...all at the same time. :D

- I think I've got a poem to write. This one verse keeps running around in my mind... it needs a proper setting.

- I have a sharpish knot between my left shoulder blade and my spine. It'll be gone tomorrow evening...
