Three random facts:

[medeous]

1."that's cute that's cute what is that hopping??!"
2. "what is that thing hopping??"
3. "do you want to buy some cookies?"

[freckledcutie]

I don't have enough feedback to do ugly ATC LMAO

that's too bad because I went and checked it out, too

I joined the gym today...I may have already said that...but, I'm not there...my daughter that just had 3 hour basketball practice is at the gym now and I'm at home...hmmm, how pathetic is that?

[Dalmaney]

1. This is officially the most depressing time of the year: cold weather, snow and grey, dark, too much schoolwork, too much groupwork, and V-Day. Blah.

2. I need to make some anti-V-Day alternate plans. I'm leaning toward watching violent movies and drinking too much wine.

3. Tea is good.

[bluecrayon]

I would and could send an ugly ATC to Kelly... ;)

[medeous]

1. ever the eternal optimist, i like valentines day
2. i don't like cleaning, cooking or driving, though
3. i do like someone else driving, cooking and cleaning for me

[Dalmaney]

1. I liked V-Day for about five days earlier this month. And then it became apparant I would be spending this one alone. Again.

2. I swear to God if one of you tries to tell me that V-Day can be about friendship and all kinds of love, I will punch you in the nose.

3. Sometimes I think I am far too bitter for someone my age. The only thing that saves me is a complete willingness (and desire) to be proven wrong.

[bluecrayon]

Okay, I leave traces of myself everywhere and then I feel naked...

I talk harshly to myself in the mirror...

I am looping around this distance and this love and this inertia and it all spins into a crazy road map I can't decipher...

[hammerquill]

I'm making split pea soup.

That means it's about 45 minutes till I can eat, still.

I'm hungry.

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. I've given catnip to the kitties.

2. There's all kinds of silliness happening on my living room floor.

3. I need a video camera.

[medeous]

1. i'm never really mean to myself.
2. i think i'm pretty mean to other people sometimes, though.
3. that makes me feel very bad.

[bluecrayon]

I wish I had hammerquill's intelligence...

I wish I had medeous's detachment...

I wish I had nymphette's Harrison...

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. I've found medeous to be one of the most thoughtful people I've encountered in this big world.

2. It's Lobster's turn to writhe around on the floor

3. He's quite the spectacle

[Sirius]

1. Medeous, I too, enjoy Valentine's Day.

2. And, yes, I liked it when I was single as well.

3. I did have one Valentine's day that I spent with a non-Valentine that gives me some of my fondest Valentine memories.

[Bugitha]

1. I got up for a glass of water and came back to the computer with a bowl full of jello. And I'm still thirsty.

2. I am remembering how when we were kids and someone said "I'm thirsty," someone else would say, "You're thirsty? I'm friday! Come over Saturday for a Sundae, and on Monday, you can meet my friend Tuesday. She's staying till Wednesday."

3. I am waiting for a phone call which I will not get any time soon since I just have one phone line and dial up internet service.

[bluecrayon]

edited because I didn't like my facts...

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. I'm very close to being a month "late"

2. I still don't want to think about what this may mean, but It's certainly time to start figuring out what's up

3. Life is complicated, not just for me, but for everyone I see...I think I need to make a real effort to start reaching out and helping others. Sometimes all the things in life are so strangling that It's hard to make your eyes focus on everything else that's happening. I'm going to vote. I'm going to stop rambling....

1. if you're cold, sick, under stress and not eating regularly, it may very well mean nothing much at all.

2. on the other hand, if it does mean something then you certainly won't be without people willing to help you in whatever you decide to do.

3. my daughter will not go to sleep...she's lying there yelling at me every five minutes to see if her school has been cancelled yet.

[hammerquill]

1. Though one Valentine's Day was one of the worst days of my life, I have a fondness for the day, too.

2. I wish I had medeous's ready wit.

3. I wish I could figure out bluecrayon.

[Katiekat]

1. i'm sleepy.

2. i want a hot tub.

3. i want a cheesy burrito with lots of fresh cilantro.

[medeous]

1. candy is not safe around me
2. if the roads are clear, i may go visit my parents this weekend
3. i'd like to work in a bookstore, i think

1. since I've been all of the above, I've been trying very hard not to worry. I've never been very good at not worrying. I feel a bit better about the sitiuation. If something happens, sure I'll freak out. But I'll deal... :P

2. I don't think I'll be sleeping tonight either. My sleep schedule is all flipped around

3. Someone's outside spinning their tires on the icy street. I'm thankful that it isn't me. I'm glad they're not stuck anymore. I was starting to think I should be out there seeing if they need help...

[chunkymonkey]

1. I'm actually getting some work done. Can you imagine??

2. we landed a new account yesterday so for now things are above water. :)

3. who knows if it will last or if maybe this is the first step to my future plans. I have a roof over my head and food in my belly so I'm not going to worry aboit it tonight.

[kittymao]

home. eyes burn. want to do nervy work. but no plans tomorrow. means many things. like sleep in. or nervy work then.

school long. teacher in class, he animate for smurfs. cooooo-ool.

feel like confucious when talk like this. Ominous.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

there are many things i don't have

i like almost all the things i do have, i'm grateful

i wonder when the economy will collapse upon itself.

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. Hmmm...looky here. I'm all alone in the q&q section again...

2. Today is parachute72's birthday. I sent her an egreeting. I wish I could have sent her something via snail mail. She's a sweet lady...

3. :unsure: The 3rd fact always intimidates me...

[freckledcutie]

I got a Valentine from Medeous

It was red with dangling beads, eyelash fibers, and the coolest heart embellishment on swirly background paper...ooohh, la la

It was an ATC and probably not at all intended to be a Valentine but it made it into my window...hey, when you're single and grasping at straws, anything...even junk mail that comes within 20 days of Valentine's Day is a Valentine (bills don't count...they're anti-Valentine)

[freckledcutie]

and I could try and make it pretty and send it back to you

I could include an ugly one, too

I'm tired and I am obviously not getting ready for work

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- UMBC is open, but they gave us "liberal leave," so I took a personal day. I am scared to drive in the ice, especially since it's supposed to rain ice all day.

-2- Miss Marley and I just watched The Pet Psychic (http://animal.discovery.com/fansites/petpsychic/petpsychic.html) on Animal Planet. I got all teary-eyed when she said those snakes were sad, and those chimps had been chained up by their legs. I tried to change the channel and Miss Marley bit my hand. Bad kitty!

-3- I can hear seagulls. I don't live near the sea, but I do live near lots of strip malls.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. becca/rebecca sent a valentine tucked in with something else she sent me. :)
(though, it wasn't written on...)

2. winter storm! we've had 15 cms or so of snow in the last 36 hours, and are expecting the same amount again.

3. i came up with not one but two ideas for paintings last night. :) :) :)

[sarahkate]

1. One of my coworkers just made cinnamon raisin toast and now that's all I can smell, and it's making me very hungry. I wish I had some cinnamon raisin toast.

2. I think I will have to make a trip to the vending machine any minute but my choices there are limited to candy or potato chips for the most part, which I probably shouldn't be eating for breakfast.

3. Another day goes by that I am jealous of Heather. I want my employer to give us "liberal leave" because of the snow, but they never will despite the fact that we are supposed to be getting anywhere from 7 to 14" of snow by tonight. <_<

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- I am thinking of shipping a gross of breakfast bars to Sarahkate's office so she has something besides candy and chips to start her day.

-2- I had an apple and peanut butter for breakfast, which is admittedly healthier than the breakfast I have when I go to work (black coffee).

-3- I am chipping away at my long list of LMAOs, and making a fair amount of progress. Hooray!

[sarahkate]

1. Ha! :lol: You think I would be smart enough to just buy breakfast stuff when I go grocery shopping, but I usually never think of it. I should probably start remembering to do so.

2. I still haven't gone out to the vending machines.

3. I want to go HOME!

3. "do you want to buy some cookies?"

I do.

How much are they per box?

Mmmmmmmmm cookies!

[sarahkate]

1. Today is my lucky day! I went to the vending machines and there, awaiting my arrival, were cinnamon raisin bagels. Woohoo!

2. No cookies or chips for breakfast afterall.

3. Cory & I ordered girl scout cookies from a friend's niece. I think we got 4 boxes and I bought some Edy's Samoa ice cream the other day. The only thing good about winter is girl scout cookies.

-1- I am fairly certain that Girl Scout Cookies are sold on each coucil's own schedule. (Council is a geographic designation, perhaps like a diocese.) The girl scouts around here were selling cookies in October.

-2- I just read a C.K. Williams poem that was kind of distubring.

-3- Tummyache :(

1. Really? I had no idea! Girl scout cookies have always seemed to be for sale only in the late winter months around here, I thought it was the same nation wide. You learn something new everyday. :)


-3- Tummyache

2. Me too. Sometimes I just hate being female. <_<


3. When it snows you can't see the lines for parking spaces in the parking lot at work. My cubicle window faces directly out to the parking lot. I sit here and laugh at the way people park when there are no lines to guide them. It's actually quite humorous, more than you would expect!

[medeous]

1. the valentine ATC i sent FC (which was one of a series so some other people got almost the same thing, so pay attention!) was an ATC yes, but also a valentine, so it's meant for that spot in your window, dear. :)

2. i tried to give them a moulin rouge feeling without including any moulin rounge stuff: the eyelash fibers and heart = garter, swirly paper = stockings, dangly beads = ruffle of corset-like-thing. ooh la la = sexA ;)

3. i'm not finding an appreciative audience for some of my stuff, so i'm sending it out unexpectedly.

when i was a girl guide, we always got our cookie sale sheets and stuff a couple of months at least before the cookies themselves arrived.
The idea was we went out, took orders, brought the orders back, then waited for the cookies to arrive, then went back and delivered the orders and took payments a couple months after taking orders. I think cookies usually arrived in april... that is, the vanilla and chocolate ones. The mint-chocolate ones were November i think... in time for christmas anyway.

1. i can't decide what to have for lunch

2. there are some hors d'oeuvres in the freezer i might have, but i should make sure that's ok by calling mum first

3. this (the one on right now) TD Canada Trust commercial uses the batman theme...

[stargal1998]

1. I just broke the face off of my stress squeezy thing.
2. People are looking at my scarves at work and wondering when I am taking orders.
3. I figure if I start making scarves for cash, I can put all the money into an account to support the arts (meaning my nness and knitting stuff).

[medeous]

1. our cookie sales this year are from jan 17 to feb 1, but nan left her order form in her desk at school for almost a week, so her sales didn't get started until yesterday.

2. i usually round all her sales up and buy the extras myself, then i sell them in the teachers lounge at school in the late spring.

3. the cookies are delivered in march and by the beginning of april, most people have eaten the "only two boxes this year, i'm watching my weight" cookies and they're jonesing for that girl-scouty-goodness. yeah i'm evil. ;)

[stargal1998]

1. Light Raspberry yougurt for breakfast is nasty, and leaves a sugary nasty taste in my mouth.
2. I concur, being a girl sucks sometimes.
3. Luckily, I found Ding Dongs in my purse and have been supplimenting this weeks breakfasts with nastiness with chocolatey goodness.

[stargal1998]

1. There are stress ball guts all over my desk.
2. I guess I squeezed too hard.
3. I only got the thing yesterday.

1. finding a ding dong is like finding manna from heaven and you should eat it all as an act of faith, lest the chocolatey diety of snack foods smite you.
2. my mom keeps snack-sized KitKats in her freezer and she and my dad will eat one!? every once in a while.
3. sometimes i open her freezer door really fast and they fall out of the bag onto the floor, then i pick them up and say "oh look, god wants me to eat these". i can get away with pretty much anything at my parent's house these days.

[cryptaesia]

i feel like crap again

our money had better be here today our cats are out of food

not to mention us

[acoustic]

1. The nailpolish on my left big toe hasn't come off since 4 months ago.
2. I slept until 11 this morning.
3. I once stole an Air Heads from a candy store.

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. we ran out of catfood the other day. My best friend stepped in and donated to the cause. He's swell...

2. a completely different friend called me from her cell phone today. it was an accident. it was in her pocket. i heard a rather loud conversation about someone with gangley teeth

3. if they were talking about my boy i swear i'll....be really sad and not say anything about it....

1. I'm wondering if your boy really does have gangly teeth

2. that would be okay with me and I wouldn't talk about him

3. nice teeth is my biggest requirement when dating, though

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. his teeth are a little bad...not gangly though

2. they didn't look bad at all when we started dating

3. they don't really bother me...i'd love him if his teeth were in a cup.

[cryptaesia]

yea!!! we have money

yea!!! we have money

holly's teeth are 'bad' too, mostly because when she was young she should have had braces and never got them, i personally love her teeth, i think theys got personality

[nymphette]

1: catching up on actual nervousness stuff... i've been sending too much stuff that doesn't HAVE to be sent, i just want to send it.... and still a pile of the same by the door... but LMAO's will have to go out first, as well as PIF's... of which i still have two to do today and then am caught up.... <sigh> <whew>

2: julian is being a mommy suck today.. not sure why, but i take what i can get.... he's a 'big boy' now and i guess he's above snuggling with mommy for no particular reason... but he's been snuggly all day... :wub:

3: i wonder what he's been into- maybe he broke something..... <_< pretty bad that i am suspicious of an ulterior motive just because i'm getting some lovin' from the burger boy..... :huh:

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

I am listening to enjoy the silence by depeche mode and dancing around the computer

I am going to take my head to the post office for shipping rates

The snow stopped coming down.... for now, that should make it easier to venture outside..... I don't drive, if I did I wouldn't venture out.

[nymphette]

1: "if my head were made of veal, which it's not, how much would it be worth???" - gavin, kids in the hall

2: i wish i had t.v. so i could watch the comedy network and see the old KITH's... i have a 6 hour tape of episodes, but i am missing some key ones... like the indian drum... and girly drink drunk guy....

3: i love canada...

[gwensmom]

I got an envelope from Luxembourg today but it wasn't from the wise and compassionate giant prehistoric guinea pigs.

Hooray! Gwen's special needs bath chair is finally here. Now I won't have to go to the chiropractor for relief from back pain every time I bathe her.

Gwensdad's first day of unemployment will be on my birthday. It's a good thing he already got me my presents!

[hainlam]

1. I have to go to the dentist in exactly one hour

2. It is a routine cleaning.. which I absolutely hate, because I don't like people picking at my teeth

3. I hope I am still a member of the no cavities club.. I am pretty sure I am the oldest kid in it..

[nymphette]

1: apparently, it is going down to -53 with windchill tonight.... i think i'll stay home and skip the whole hospital thing... harrison's doing great so i think we'll wait to get an ammonia level done until this weather breaks.... i am quite disgusted with the weather.... hm <_<

2: homemade buns are the yummiest...

3: i feel sorry for cindy having to be up in sask. right now!!!!! it's probably a balmy 10 degrees back home.... ;)

[Gingersmack]

1. I am enjoying a tall cup of coffee, much needed
2. I have begun creating my mix cd for LMAO
3. I received 3 posties yesterday; from Canada, Germany and Florida

3: i still have to make up harrison's scrapping LMAO, and that will be more postage... and of course, it comes first!!! :)

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. I haven't checked the mail yet.

2. There's snow all over the place.

3. It's raining. The rain makes tiny holes in the snow.

[Dalmaney]

1. This morning, it was -35*C, -51 with windchill.
2. My bus was a) five minutes late and b)full, so it drove by, meaning I stood out there for TWENTYFIVE MINUTES!!! :angry:
3. I'm going to call transit to complain now. I lost 1% off my final CE 295 grade because of them. Not to mention the incredible pain that only mildly frostbitten toes can provide.

[kittymao]

wo- people are getting valentines already? I should send mine out then! Oh- but the canadians first, cause their mail takes a long time to get to them. Oo, Should I seal the envie with tape to save it from the snow? *thinks*

I had a bagel this morning. So weird- I usually have to buy my own bagels out in the City, but this one was sitting there in the kitchen singing sweet oniony songs into my ear and the herby cream cheese providing a delicious harmony...

I have stuff to do. I should do it. I should. I will... in a few minutes.

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. The rain has stopped
2. Now it's snowing
3. This has been your weather update for Tuesday, January 27, 2004.

[mpurr]

1. I have three books going right now: (Mirabilis, The Strange Death of Mistress Coffin, and The Passion)

2. I am a lucky, lucky girl

3. I did my own 1930's hairdo today

[nymphette]

1: i want to see mpurr's hairdo!!!

2: i wore flipped up hair and cloth hair bands, and lots of black eyeliner when i was in grade ten... those close minded small town clique-y bitches called me a freak... so i kicked 'em in the ass with my doc marten boots.... ;)

3: they had the same hair, makeup, tights and boots in grade twelve.... <_<

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. Someone's playing Funky Cold Medina on their car stereo. Hmmm...

2. My brother played that song all the time....

3. My brother likes Nascar and guns...we don't have a whole lot in common...

[Dalmaney]

1. I did call Transit and lodge a complaint. The nice lady that took my call said a supervisor will get back to me within three weeks. *sigh* This is a solution how?

2. I was very calm and didn't yell at the phone lady. This took much restraint on my part.

3. I don't really ever actually YELL at people. But that doesn't mean I don't want to.

3. I'm going to get a head in the mail :)

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i rec'd a contribution from chunkymonkey to an ATC LMAO today, and chunky, they are lovely!

2 that sour apple martini i just drank was the best idea i've had all day

3 i'm also kinda liking the painting i've been doing this afternoon :)

[medeous]

1. grrrr. my "n" is gone!
2. i painted it, i cut it, i sealed it and now it's GONE!
3. i blame dubya.

[Bugitha]

1. For some reason, I keep a wide variety of things to drink on hand even though most days I go for iced tea, water, or diet coke. I have 3 varieties of cocoa; coffee; herbal tea, green tea and black tea; chai mix, hot cider mix, milk, juice, instant cappucino, and a can of general foods international french vanilla coffee. Oh. And I always have plain yogurt on hand for when I feel like having a smoothie. Not much alcohol in the house though. Just a bottle of Khalua I got as a gift and a bottle of white wine I use for cooking.

2. No one who peers in my fridge actually believes that big jug of wine is for cooking.

3. Given my family history of alcoholism, its probably a good thing I never developed a taste for the stuff.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

I am actually kind of giddy today because I've been up to no good, no good at all. Oh man, sometimes I can feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

I have a canker sore, and it hurts. Little bugger.

I feel better today than I did yesterday. And to top it off tomorrow I get to send out my head. Whoohoooo!!!

[nymphette]

1: all alone... chris got stuck in the city because the car wouldnt' start.... duh.. plug it in when it hits minus 50 wiener!!!!

2: all alone... art, chain games, long bath using all the hot water, laying on the couch reading... i can do whichever i choose without hearing 'wht do you want to do tonight'???...

3: all alone.... i get to sprawl all over the bed and not get an elbow in my head and use all the covers or toss them on the floor.......

4: there is something to be said for being alone...... <_<

aww thanks. I was worried they were too funky or something. :)

1. Valentines day creeped up quickly. I swore I wouldn't be in a rush like christmas but I'm headed that way.

2. I'm pissed that kerry won NH. Everyone keeps shouting about him being so electable. Cripes... if he wins the nomination he'll gte killed by the time he goes up against bush.

3. eh, I eat too much cheese. :wacko:

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. I have been awake for a very long time. things are beginning to get strange. It's so unhealthy, but it's kinda fun when this happens

2. When I'm weird, words just start flying out of my mouth. they may not make sense, but at least there's lots of them. It's about quantity not quality.

3. I am actually the type who goes for quality over quantity. I managed to made a typo and make the word shoe appear in this fact. I took it away and you will never guess where it use to be aaahahahahaha!!!

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. My husband has still not received his financial aid money. We are not happy.

2. The school has his check but is refusing to give it him because he missed a few classes last week. So this money is most likely accruing interest in the school's bank account. It is also accruing interest that my husband must pay back, as it is a loan.

3. He is doing some research online at the moment, as we are fairly sure that this is not exactly legal. There's something fishy about the whole operation. And I'm not exactly sure how the school expects him to show up to class everyday in the snow, with holes in his shoes. He need the stupid money so he can afford to go to school...isn't that the point?

*sigh* sorry...but man, venting felt good.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

arrrrrgh!! my back is sore from working so hard today.

I made an awesome box for the travelling head, I am really quite proud of it, it will be quite sturdy.

I have also just finished packaging the oil on canvas donation to nervousness ebay auction, I am also quite proud of this.

[Gingersmack]

1. It's late
2. I'm finishing laundry
3. I'm listening to Bjork




Oy... I need to go to bed.

[chunkymonkey]

2. poor nymphette is busy doing research for 20 questions...she wants to smack me...yes yes

3. I'm going to get a head in the mail :)

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

1. AGREED!!!

2. I lied today and I feel bad now.

3. I save rubber bands but never ever use them

[nymphette]

1: i was wondering where cuilainie has been... :)

2: i forget that france is halfway across the world.... or at least very far from here....

3: bonjour amie!!! comment allez-vous aujourd'hui ??? (pardon my french...) :P

[chunkymonkey]

1. I have this dream of driving an ice cream truck around a populated but quiet neighbourhood at 3 in the morning blaring "war what is it good for"

2. I like to dance in the privacy of my own room... in the dark.

3. I get the giggles at the most inappropriate times. I think of something stupid and I just can't hold it in (ie the thought of doing #1.) I did a very loud holding it in snort laugh at a viewing once. :ph34r:

1. ohhh that's really funny

2. oh dear. I'm starting to feel sleepy. I'm not allowed to sleep. I have to wake the boy up in an hour and twenty minutes

3. A friend and I wrote a comic about an ice cream truck driver who hated children. He would throw marbles at them...it didn't make any sense....

[chunkymonkey]

1. I'm all alone in QQ. :(

2. My boo is stranded at a house full of annoying people. Why can't she be "stranded" her with me?

3. I eat cereal almost everyday but never for breakfast.

[Dalmaney]

1. Waking up to the radio is bad because it forces me to be aware of the weather outside while still in my warm warm bed.

2. It's -42 this morning, and it feels like -54! We're the coldest place in North America! Alert, the northernmost habitated place in Canada, is ten degrees warmer.

3. Somedays I just want to never leave my house again. But I have a lab this afternoon that I must be at, so I might as well suck it up and get to school now.

[freckledcutie]

1. I have a free period as my 8th grade went to a session to prepare them for high school!!! Yay!

2. Someone just asked me what drugs I took to never cry and be so happy all the time

3. I said I was blessed in the happy department

I am looking forward to seeing this painting

I am about to go request a month's leave from work

i don't know what to do if they say no!

[timeittook]

i'm at school and starving(not giving up my computer in this crowded library).
i left my spanish workbook at home hence i am turning in half my homework(i'm an idiot).
it is still cold outside today and there is a chance it may snow again this week(i despise snow).

[thunderstorm_19]

1. lunch will be chicken salad sandwich on garlic (or is it onion) loaf bread...

2. my painting is coming along very nicely, i'm quite pleased...

3. i've really had enough snow for one week...

bonus

i really need to go mail stuff...

[Curlita]

I had to come in to work early to meet someone and then THEY were 15 minutes late. Grump grump.

I raced out of the house so fast I had to brush my teeth and take my vitamins here at work.

My husband has the day off and he is going to fix dinner for me.

[Gingersmack]

1. I'm having oatmeal for breakfast.
2. Morning coffee has been brewed.
3. It is dreary and dark outside.

[picasso]

I just returned from a 10 day vacation in California.

There is much snow on the ground.

I have head cold.

[nymphette]

1: our car still wont' start and have been plugged in since 4 pm yesterday.... and the block heater does work, so that isn't it....

2: i just realized i was supposed to start a new month of pills on saturday... it's wednesday and i won't be able to get into the city until... who knows!!!!

3: it's cold... darn cold... though i am sure i have mentioned that before.... a time or two... ahem

[stargal1998]

1. I think I just started selling scarves.
2. I've taken 3 official orders, and there are a bunch more just from work...
3. I need to buy more yarn.

[medeous]

1. there was a disturbance in my classroom this morning.
2. i sent the responsible party to the office to be dealt with.
3. i was the responsible party.

[medeous]

1. i was so upset that i cried.
2. i wanted to hit someone with a desk.
3. i am not in the habit of hitting people with desks.

[medeous]

1. my principal was very calm and understanding and told me "i don't see you as a problem, i don't worry about you."
2. i asked her to "please worry about me."
3. i feel better but i'm still shakey.

[sarahkate]

1. girl-who-loves sharks is sad.

2. medeous is upset.

3. sarahkate is sad because of this! I hate to see nice sweet people upset! It's just unfair. :(

[medeous]

1. i don't want to be a teacher anymore, i don't want to work with kids...at least not so many, so loud, so apathetic.
2. if i could afford it, i would decline to sign my contract for next year.
3. i cannot afford it now and doubt i will be able to afford it by the deadline for signing in april.

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- In 11th grade geometry, Mr. Kemick hit Michelle P. with a desk.

-2- He was a first year teacher, and he hit Michelle with a desk because she laughed when the principal got on the intercom and said, "Please pray for Ms. Cronin's grandson, who was just gored by a goat."

-3- I think it was just a nervous laugh, on Michelle's part. I don't think she really thought it was funny that a little kid got hurt.

ETA: Michelle wasn't badly hurt by the desk-throwing.

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

1. Until just now, I thought cryptaesia was female, but no! He is a man.

2. I don't mean that in an emasculating way. It's just that I assume everyone is female unless they have a boy name or photo for their avatar, or if they constantly talk about their penis.

3. I suspect that we would ban anyone who actually talked about his penis all the time. That is my hope, anyway.

Hi cryptaesia! Sorry about that!

[freckledcutie]

1. Medeous, I'm here for you...been teaching 11 years...I know the temporary insanities

2. One time a student told me he was going to kidnap me and cut me into tiny pieces and put me in the trunk of his car until he disposed of me

3. I wanted to say, "Not if I get to you first"

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i need tea and chocolate

2. i keep wanting ovaltine, but then reminding myself i don't really like ovaltine when it's actually in drink form (i will, however, routinely eat spoonfuls of ovaltine powder... yumyum!)

3. my mastercard bill is due in 2 days, and i don't want to have to ask for a ride to the bank (i could use online banking, if i hadn't used it once then forgotten my password, and i'm too stubborn to call the customer service line and admit that i've forgotten my password)

[thunderstorm_19]

3. I wanted to say, "Not if I get to you first"
1. i would have said that

2. that is one reason i'd be a bad teacher (i would lose my temper all too often)

3. i am once again in need/desire of a trip to the art store for supplies

[freckledcutie]

1. If I had a million dollars we would have a big, Nness R&R

2. A week long escape to be around artists and an endless supply of art projects and supplies

3. I wouldn't care if I spent over 100,000 dollars getting it done, either

[stargal1998]

1. I think I've got a case of the doldrums.
2. Maybe a few other posters do, too.
3. I do not like winter much, but I do love the fact that the snow is all crusty on top and makes a weird noise when something touches it (thanks to the ice).

[thunderstorm_19]

1. some ATCs arrived today that i was starting to worry about

2. i love my painting, even if it isn't exactly as i imagined it, and is a bit 'simple'... i love the patches of colour...

3. pork stew in the crockpot for dinner is starting to smell reallllllly goood... (pork stew is my fave stew)

[cindi1023]

1. (((((((*hugs*)))))))) to everyone having a craptastic day!

2. I'm such a southerner. It's gotten awfully cold down here (23 deg. F). I have a scarf, but it's mainly for decoration! I don't even know how to properly wear it! I feel like I'm functionally retarded.... do I tie it around my neck or wrap it several times or what? Someone help me! :ph34r:

3. I just got finished alphabitizing a bunch of forms from 2003 so they can be stored away. No one will ever look at them again, but God Forbid they not be in alphabetical order! So I wasted 3 hours doing it... I bet no one would have ever noticed if I just threw them in the box any-which-way....

[thunderstorm_19]

1. last winter i got into the habit of wearing TWO winter scarves... one tied over my head, tied under the chin, and made sure it covered my ears (i hate earmuffs), and the other round my neck like one would expect of a scarf

2. on art supply shopping list: palette knife, canvasses, texture medium (for acrylics), and a pantograph (instrument for "tracing" images to make enlargements from them)... oooh, and i'd like to find a plastic mold in ATC size, such that i can use it to make tile/mosaic "ATCs"... hmmm....

3. i've been wondering about the logistics of selling one's work/art... does one need a vendor's permit or something to do so?............................................

[silvertiger]

1. I got my first cat for my 5th birthday
2. I performed my first solo dance last year
3. I did a speech on wicca in high school

[sarahkate]

1. I have never worn a scarf. I have tried them on in stores, but I have never actually owned one. I don't have anything against them and I think they look nice on other people, so I don't know why I have never worn one.

2. I wonder if I am the only person who, every once in a while, looks at a very common word and doesn't recognize it. For example today I was reading a blog, and the person was writing about "Sex and the city" and for a second I actually didn't recognize the word sex! I don't know if it's because I didn't expect this person to have the word sex in their blog, or if I was thinking of something similar like "six" but I just looked at sex for a minute and was confused, I thought the person made a typo and I had to think about what the letter s-e-x spelled and meant. It's kind of scary when this happens. Am I crazy? I think I might be! What is wrong with me??! :huh:

3. I'm a little bit afraid of myself now.

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

1. I have looked at common words and not recognized them. It happens to me with words like "let" or "got" or "she." (Never sex, though, because it has an 'x' in it.)

2. The things I remember most about Captain Kangaroo are Picture Pages w/Bill Cosby, and Mr. Good-Body.

3. Mr. Good-Body had curly hair and wore a creepy unitard with drawings of his internal organs on it.

4. Picture Pages had a very cool song and a magic-marker that made a neat noise.

5. Chris made me laugh, because he said that he gets Captain Kangaroo mixed up with Captain Chesapeake. Captain Chesapeake was just on Baltimore t.v., as far as I know, and all he did was introduce the next cartoon before it came on.

[freckledcutie]

I hope you guys don't mistake a proud mother for a braggart

My daughter was high scorer in last night high school basketball game

She scored 17 points and one of those was a 3-pointer

[stargal1998]

1. I remember officer Bird.
2. I think it was just a California thing.
3. My boyfriend thought I was nuts when I went on about the macaw who patrolled and taught safety...

[cryptaesia]

i am supposed to be 'organizing

however gusgus has decided that i must pay attention to him

he is full of purry goodness

[cindi1023]

1. One of my quirks: I generally like for my underwear to coordinate with my outfit, just in case I'm in a freak accident -- What's worse is that I usually put my underwear on before I decide what I'm going to wear for the day. So my outfits are usually dictated by the color underwear I'm wearing.

2. I was off-schedule with my clothes washing last week, and none of my outfits matched my underwear. I was nervous driving all week.

3. I'm finally back on schedule! :P

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. I'm all alone today...blah. Maybe I should try to work on some of those projects

2. my mother-in-law is coming in tomorrow, but that's ok because she's awesome.

3. I suck at 20 questions...

[nymphette]

1: DOA- i'll trade you a brother, two sister in law's, a brother in law, a father in law, and two ten year old cousins, all for your awesome mother in law!!!! oh, and i'll throw in the mother in law from hell, do with her what you will....

2: i'm glad cindi is back on panty-schedule... i can't imagine co-ordinating my bra or underwear with each other, let alone with a whole outfit!!! which i have a hard time coordinating with itself as it is.... ;)

3: ;) should have been :P... because i was talking about cindi...

[sarahkate]

1. I'm hungry

2. I'm bored

3. I'm a brat

[sarahkate]

1. Ok, those last facts made me sound much too bratty so I have to post 3 more. Well, 2 more after this wasted one!

2. I almost always wear pajama pants to bed. I usually can't sleep unless pants are covering my legs, no matter what the temperature is.

3. I didn't update my blog today, so far. I have been trying to get in the habit of updating it everyday, but I can never think about anything interesting to write. Makes me wonder why I even have a blog in the first place. :huh:

[nymphette]

1: i dont' think SK is a brat... though she probably is bored.. and thinks she's hungry because she's bored... :)

2: i wish i had a vending machine out in my back porch.... with kitkat, skor bar, m&m's, jolly ranchers, skittles, starburst tropicals, and munchie mix.... without the pretzels in it... oh yeah, and a tim horton's coffe mchine always brewing and ready for me...

3: i wish michael's had a vending machine so when i needed more glue i could just put some quarters in and get it... ditto for felt and ink pads, stamps and sculpey!!!!

[gwensmom]

Heather is coming to Memphis in November! I will get to see another nervouser in person! YAY

I got the paperwork to apply for a leave from work but I couldn't get my supervisor to sign it because she was out all morning

I started cleaning my desk and catching up so she won't hate me so much for abandoning her!

[nymphette]

1: jaime- what hte heck is a nipple parade?????? i can't even begin to imagine.....

2: my keyboard is working very slowly.... my backspace is creeping when i have to delete a line of something.... i think it's frozen!!!

3: i left a cup of tea in here last night (on my q&q marathon) and it had a tiny little bit of ice crusting the edges this morning when i came in to turn the computer and heater on!!!

1. :lol: That's probably true, though I hate to admit it because that's what my mom always said to me - "you aren't hungry you are just bored"

2. Or... "you aren't hungry, you are tired"

3. Or... "you aren't bored, you are tired"

:lol: Gotta love moms

[nymphette]

1: that's exactly what i was thinking as i typed it..... i sound like my mother...

2: there are worse people i could sound like....

3: literally.. one of them is fran drescher.....

[cryptaesia]

i just got shivers from visiting the einsturzende neubauten site

they are comint to t.o. april 28th

they are looking for an opening act and i think maybe i should try.....

[Cuilanië]

- My last post on the Nness forums was a whopping six days ago. GAWD.

- There are over 20 pages of Three Random Facts since then.

- I've just finished listening to Counting Crows, August and Everything After. I just had to say that.

See y'all next week! :rolleyes:

[tanagee]

I made my Jr high sewing teacher have a nervous break down and retire

I got my 10th grade english teacher fired

I was an influential part in my High School asking my 12th grade English teacher to 'voluntarily' retire

[tanagee]

My 11th grade English teacher sic'd the school psychologist on me because I said on the Friday before Halloween "I'll see you Monday if I'm still alive"

I was a teaching assistant for my other 12th grade English teacher and he 'gave me away' to another teacher.

Dispite all this my parents were very active in the PTA and booster club (there were more pictures of my parents in my yearbooks than there were of ME)

<waves at Robyn>

- I've been wandering in scattered mindscapes, some of which weren't equipped with computers... ;)

- Being halfway across the world has a lot to do with this.

- I'm trying to juggle too many things at the moment...

[tanagee]

Me again :)

My internet has been out for 2 days

I just spent 1 hour on the phone with Earthlink and Dell to get it fixed

I lost a lot of my favorites, but I can get online again :)

lol! Oh...umm...college girls in this town have a habit of wondering around town half naked and drunk when there's snow all over the place. I mean...lines and lines of these girls covering the sidewalks in this town. They're all shivering...It's so silly. Um..they are the nipple parade :P

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. My town is crazy. Town use to be better, cooler, everything is being replaced by bars for the college kids.

2. Bars are ok and all, but most of them are really lame and cater to the sort of crowd that would laugh at me if I walked in...not that I would want to anyway

3. I need to move

[timeittook]

my right hand is freezing, but my left is hot.
i just ate some seasame chicken. i'm no longer hungry and am extremely satisfied.
i'm going to take a shower in the next hour. not because i'm dirty, just because i feel like it.

[medeous]

1. once again, let me remind you all that i have an extra room.
2. only one bathroom though, so no tiny-bladders need apply.
3. there is plumbing stubbed in down in the basement if someone wanted to come build me a second bathroom.

[Dalmaney]

1. I survived my riduculously cold day and plan to stay safely inside until it is time to sleep.

2. I should do some work tonight... and I really don't want to. I don't really have anything else to do, though.

3. I need to come up with happy plans for Reading Week so I have something to look forward to.

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. If my boy wasn't such a horrible roommate I would be on my way to Missouri

2. I don't think he would let me leave without him. Not that I really want to leave without him...he's kinda like my husband...we have rings and everything...

3. He's not here right now. I don't know what to do with myself. I've played with kitties, made envies, played on nness, paced around the house a bit, listened to an insane amount of mp3s...I'm out of ideas here....

[Bugitha]

i wish i had a vending machine out in my back porch.... with kitkat, skor bar, m&m's, jolly ranchers, skittles, starburst tropicals, and munchie mix.... without the pretzels in it... oh yeah, and a tim horton's coffe mchine always brewing and ready for me...



1. I have a friend who bought a candy vending machine from a pool hall that was going out of business. He actually does keep it stocked with his favorites.

2. My temp job was supposed to end on Friday but its been extended a month. :)

3. My boss is trying to get me hired on permanently but could not get authorization from the powers-that-be to get another regular salary added into the budget. :(

[kittymao]

I spent time today running around the City and stopping in at the Tourist traps, looking for the PhotoBooths that spit out the 4-pic pictures on the real photo paper. Stupid city only has the cruddy paper sketch ones that look like pics pumped through a Photoshop Filter. If anyone knows where I can find one in SF, let me know!

I have an hour until my next class and a bag of cookies and a can of tea to sate me. Eek! I will have to raid the vending mahcine- though I am not appetized by anything in it.

Tomorrow's thursday. That means FRIDAY's after that, then saturday and then the SUPERBOWL! mind you I only like the superbowl for the commercials and the food. The idea of getting drunk at it sounds promising as well.

[bluecrayon]

There used to be one at Camera Obscura at the beach... I'm wondering if it's still there. I need to make some of those kind of photos, so I guess I will go see...

I am waiting for Hammerquill to show up and be witty...

And where the heck is Medeous???

[thunderstorm_19]

last time i looked it was 9:30... and i was wide awake

now it's 10.20 and i'm getting sleepy

is it wierd to take a bath in the morning rather than the evening? (i'll probably do this tomorrow)... :)

[Dalmaney]

1. I am sad and angry and frustrated and tired.

2. I hate that at the end of the day, I don't get to control my life as long as there are other people in it.

3. :(

[Sirius]

1. It was cold today. Okay, it is 9:00pm and it is 51F but it's freakin' cold to me.

2. Hi! How ya' doing? Long time no talk? How's things with everyone? Good? Good? Yeah, I like good.

3. It's wednesday ya' know.

[bluecrayon]

I am sending some warmth to Dalmaney...

I had an amazing day with his voice and even though he still is far away I feel him all around me...

I am a pink bluecrayon...

[medeous]

re-edited due to lingering petulance.

[Dalmaney]

1. I don't want to suck it up anymore.
2. I know I'm a whiner, but at the moment I'm ok with that.
3. I hope everyone else is having a hapier evening.

[Sirius]

1. Marvelling at Medeous's comment about sucking it up.

2. "Marvelling" isn't the word I wanted to use, but I am feeling brain-dead and not able to think of the word I wanted.

3. I refuse to go to sleep at 9:21, even if I am tired.

[bluecrayon]

Lingering petulance plagues me often...

I edited the heck out of one of these random facts thingies -- due to lingering melancholy...

I wish I had seen Medeous's original petulant facts!!!

[hammerquill]

It's good to have a more organized person keeping track of these things; I keep being certain tomorrow's Friday.

Even a lingeringly petulant medeous is better than no medeous at all.

I think I'm going to get offline and maybe even <gasp!> get something else done this evening.

[bluecrayon]

I think I might follow Hammerquill's lead tonight...

I never seem to follow my better instincts about sleep and stay up way too late and get up way too early...

Always being tired doesn't help my loopiness...

[Bugitha]

1. I just realized I don't have enough feedback points to give to all of my valentine lmao participants! Doh!

2. I'm afraid to develop the three rolls of film I have sitting around because I'm sure that the majority of the shots are pictures of the cats.

3. I prefer aquariums to zoos.

[kittymao]

Bleah! Squabby doo da! Nieggy boogy squabby dee doo! Beegy boogy squabby daa dee! Greawerrrr! Bleah!
If you wish, you may consider that performance art.

My mum made trail mix.

The teacher I had tonight painted the album cover for Dio's Holy Diver album. Hoi polli. That's crazy.

ps. What is Hoi Polli? I use it as a replacement for a swear word.

[chunkymonkey]

1. I'm not feeling very up with the people tonight

2. fried rice is the cheapest, quickest, tastiest meal I can think of.

3. what the world needs know is love sweet love... so says my tv. :)

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. I'm not feeling as up as I usually do around this time of night

2. been an emotional day :P

3. I need a little kick to get into a good mood. Will someone kick me? Please?

[kittymao]

*keek*

[chunkymonkey]

1. all alone here again

2. my scanner is being a jackass tonight.

3. I like to chew gum before I go to bed and in bed before I fall asleep.

[Dalmaney]

1. I was thinking so hard in my sleep it woke me up.
2. I couldn't get back to sleep, so I got up to email the person my thoughts were revolving around.
3. I need people much more than they need me and that is the scariest thing in the world to me.

It means "the masses." As in, I like Dennis Kucinich, but the hoi polloi prefer the staid monotone of Kerry.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. in biological anthropology last year we did a lab where we had to stick a finger in a beaker of snow for 15 minutes (each minute measuring its temperature), to discover if we had a genetic trait (and i forget what it was called, i'll have to look it up) that meant we were "cold adapted".

2. i'm not. (cold adapted).

3. the cat woke me twice last night, yeowling and attacking things on my floor, and my bedskirt.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i was also woken by my mother's radio in the next room (which is rare, she doesn't have it loud, and it's only talking, and i'm usually comatose at the time she has it on while preparing to go to work).

2. the night before last i lay down on my side, in bed, and the cat put his chin on my knee, and started purring and "kneading dough" with the covers.

3. i've been looking for a good safe place to put my painting. I put it down for a while last night, and dad put an ice cream dish on top of it. Thankfully no damage was done.

[sarahkate]

1. There wasn't enough dog food left for Delilah's breakfast so I gave her some vanilla almond Special K cereal. I think she liked it because she was crunching away on it when I left for work. :lol:

2. I have to make a dentist appointment very soon. I haven't been in years and I have bad teeth and my wisdom teeth are coming in but there is no room for them. Everytime I yawn instant pain shoots through my jaw. Yup, time to suck it up and call a dentist. I'm afraid though. :unsure:

3. I have told myself I am going to stop procrastinating, but I have been putting that off. ;)

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- I had all four wisdom teeth removed at once, and with only novacaine, in 1994. It was no big deal at all.

-2- My best friend had two wisdom teeth extracted by an oral surgeon, and she got nitrous oxide, and she had many complications.

-3- One of her complications is rather amusing: a few days after her surgery, she had horrible pain in her cheek and gums on one side of her face. She went back to the oral surgeon, who probed around in there. He asked her, "Do you like grape bubble gum?" She was a little puzzled, and replied, "Uhh, yeah, I guess so." Turns out she had been "chewing" gum right after her surgery (because she wanted to get a yucky taste out of her mouth) and had fallen asleep with it in her mouth, and the wounds closed up around the gum. Gross! But funny.

Bonus fact: Heather thinks that Sarahkate should cowgirl up and just go to the dentist. Chronic mouth pain isn't worth avoiding a slightly unpleasant experience.

[rockinghorse]

What a fun idea....

1> I currently hate my Great Danes. The day before yesterday, they went nuts, tore through the back of their pen and killed my two new baby lambs and a 6 moth old ram. Then, while I was in the pen, they attacked my ewe, Minnie the Moocher. I beat them with my fists trying to get them off her, then managed to grab a big stick and beat them off. As soon as they were back in their repaired pen, they acted like the sweet dogs they have always been. I feel very betrayed. I know they're animals, and act instinctively, but I never thought they'd do anything like this. I don't know if I'll ever trust them again, even though they act sorry.... Whew. Dumb dogs.

2> I like to run with my arms out and make airplane noises. Even in public. I can't control it.

3> I talk to myself. I mean, conversations and debates. Surely I'm not the only one?

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- I like this rockinghorse character.

-2- Baby lambs are sweet. I am sorry rockinghorse's babies got killed by those dumb dogs.

-3- There used to be a great dane who lived next door. Her name was Arden. She had very bad hip displaysia and they had to put her down. I liked her a lot.

[timeittook]

1. i live in the middle of nowhere and there are baby goats near my house. i give them all names as i ride past them everytime.
2. i feel like dancing but the librarians would get mad at me for doing it.
3. my pet bird, bud bird, lays eggs now. we don't know why after over 5 years he decided to start laying eggs. but whatever. he chooses to be a woman now.

[shelleym]

1. I think SarahKate should go to the dentist but demand to be put under. I did and the drugs are enormous fun.

2. I think my heathen ex-boyfriend may have found Jesus, in a scary way.

3. In order to avoid being divorced, I am not supposed to email/talk to/think about this particular heathen ex-boyfriend.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i hit my head. thankfully, not too hard.

2. it's noon and i just finished lunch.

3. i still want something more, something sweet, to eat...

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

i went to a bar last night, which is rare

left the bar in favour of home..... which is not rare

stayed up obscenely late again, or errrm early, so i figure it's a good thing I don't have a job.

[cindi1023]

1. Sarahkate should go to the dentist ASAP! Mouth pain never gets any better, and is, quite possibly, the worst pain there is.

2. I am having a completly SHITY day at work.

3. Maybe I should try to find another job.... :huh:

[stargal1998]

1. I won the award for class kiss up my senior year of high school.
2. I am officially in the scarf business.
3. I watched Guinevere with Sarah Polley and Stephen Rae last night. And then I dreamt a similar dream.... With me in it...

[sarahkate]

1. First you guys convince me to register to vote, and now you are going to convince me to go to the dentist. What would I do without all of you?? :D

2. I love the way paper feels all toasty and warm after it comes out of the copier.

3. I worked in a copy center for almost a year, and somehow I refrained from copying my face, butt or any other body parts. :P

[cindi1023]

1. Dammit! I had to go and say something about Sarahkate going to the dentist... and what do you know! I broke a tooth at lunch today.

2. I hate going to the dentist. I have all kinds of tooth problems, and every time I go to the dentist it's bad news (plus huge dental bills).... :blink:

3. What an all-around shitty day. :(

[sarahkate]

:o Oh no! Poor Cindi!!! I hope I didn't jinx you!!

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

jinx... pfffft now you can't talk till someon esays your name sarahkate.... er wait i said it.

i am still very excited by my mailing day yesterday, best $26.66 i've spent in a loooooong time

3: i dont' bitch about the in charge idiots, so... it's all good!!! (that's for you cindi!!! ;)) :P

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

i voted. not for the municipal election because i think anyone would be just as good (or cruddy) as anyone else. besides if my city starts to suck really bad i can move.....ahhhhhh the joys of renting

i got year of the monkey stamps at the postoffice yesterday, i know they are just stamps but they are soooooo cool.

I made 3 atcs i like last night, one of them is just pure genius. I'm genius!!!!!

1. I am not a voter YET, but in Heather's democratic candidates thread bunches of people convinced me I should vote, so I sent away for voter registration papers. I received them, but have yet to fill them out though. I will soon! So, perhaps I will actually be voting for the first time ever in this years election. Scary!

2. Oh, thanks for saying my name wonkywalkingshoe! Phew! :lol:

3. You know what kind of cereal is really good? Reese's Peanut Butter Puffs. It's like heaven bobbing around in milk.

1. mmm...that is good stuff

2. I really need a new avatar. Well I don't need one, but I'm pretty tired of looking at Princess Sputnik

3. I tried to play around w/ my avatar last night..well more like 5am, and I got nowhere...can I borrow someone's creativity for a few days? I've lost all mine...maybe I should put up flyers...

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- I will never get rid of my avatar, because it is exactly the perfect avatar for me, and it was created by kittymao.

-2- I had a Coke already, and now I want another one. I am a Coke addict.

-3- Clearly, I can never run for elected office, with all of the things that can be taken out of context that I have posted in these forums. Heck, even some of the stuff in context would screw me.

[timeittook]

1. i have a coke that i just bought that is super yummy.
2. i wanted to run for mayor of my city but can't because i'm too young.
3. the wind screwed my hair up and now i have to find a brush or something to fix it with.

[laputa64]

1. My dog was named Johnny B Dead by my friends in Virginia

2. I just bought a UV lens for my camera yesterday

3. I can't decide whether to dress up as a doll or colockwork orange for my suicidegirl application

[freckledcutie]

This is a terrible, terrible day!

I have done nothing but mediate, investigate, negotiate

I know that mediate and negotiate are closely related, but I needed another -ate word to make me feel more balanced

[shelleym]

1. I am also a coke addict (2 today so far!) But I don't drink coffee - does that balance out?

2. I recently discovered cinnamon Altoids... yum!

3. I wish I could go to work in my pajamas. And slippers. :P

[Dalmaney]

1. Today I got an offer from the camp I was at last summer to go back to work there again.

2. I am still in the interview process to work for another day camp here in the city; I should know if I made the first round of cuts before the weekend.

3. I don't know what to do yet.

[cindi1023]

1. *grumps*

2. Crap.

3. Jackasses.... :angry:



**edited to note that none of the above facts are aimed at anyone at nervousness. All the above is directed at one person IRL. They know who they are.**

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- Today I have been doing my part to get people to put their dogs on Dogster. (http://www.dogster.com) You should do it, too! I would, had I a dog.

-2- I hope someone invents Catster. Miss Marley will be up there in a heartbeat.

-3- I sincerely believe I will get good mail today.

[timeittook]

1. one of my absolute bestest friends signed up here today.
2. i have to do a resume for a government job by monday.
3. i need a job... BAD!

[Curlita]

1. I'm on my way over to Dogster ASAP!

2. I want chocolate. Trying to resist the temptation to go to the bakery and get one of those chocolate-dipped chocolate chip cookies I'm addicted to.

3. Washington State doesn't have primaries anymore, so I feel left out, what with not getting to choose a Dem candidate and all.

Bonus 4.
Last year my husband I and both wrote in our dog, Sherman, for Port Commissioner. He didn't win, though.

[kittymao]

Yaay catster. Eventually. I hope.

I ate strawberry flavored craisins. Craisins are dried cranberries. I don't know why they don't have their regular flavor, but the Strawberry ones tasted JUST like Fruit leather! yum.

Homework- two flipbooks, arranging a portfolio of sorts and concept art for Penguins. I love school.

[cindi1023]

1. I'm feeling a bit better now, thank you.

2. I took a friend along with me to Publix tonight to take my Monkey/Cheese picture. I tried to talk the employee who was stocking cheese to be in the photo with me, but he refused. He did find the whole thing very funny, though.

3. I came home and ate a huge Ghiradeli (sp?) Chocolate Brownie. It's the best medicine I've found for shitty days. :huh:

[Dalmaney]

1. I wish I never had to NEED a job again and could actually work on what matters.
2. I feel much better today than I did yesterday. I think I am a reasonably resilient person.
3. I get to ride to my meeting tonight in Jerk-Ass Prime, my friend's car, if it starts.

[bluecrayon]

I wish someone would bump up speaking of, chain game overkill, chain gamers unite, and rubbish --

I had a hellacious day and I just ate too many corn chips to compensate...

I am aware once more that infatuation guy just lives too far away...

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. I have a purring Lobster on my lap. He's swell.

2. I'm not doing anything today. I'm ok with that...

3. I slept through my mother-in-law's visit :P I feel bad...I really wanted to see them...I hope we can make it in to visit them soon...

[bluecrayon]

aw, medeous!!! Thank you for bumping up all my games.... :)

[freckledcutie]

I went to the gym tonight

I am feeling slightly down

I had a parent tell her child today that she didn't f-in (except she used the word) love him enough to deal with him anymore and that she was going to have the state gome and take him away tonight among so many other terrible things...it really crushed me, hence leading to a super, duper bad day that has made me sad

[mpurr]

I got to talk to luckythirteenxxx tonight

I am drinking a little too much wine- but it is a good one- tonight

I want to adopt the little boy that freckledcutie just mentioned, and smack his mother in the mouth for being so callous and shitty.

[timeittook]

1. my puppy's third tear duct in his eye popped out. it is getting removed soon.
2. my lower back is killing me.
3. i don't feel like waking up early tomorrow for school.

[mpurr]

I am so in love with my amazing and fabulous cat that I cannot imagine how I have ever managed without her

The lead singer for Azure Ray has the most incredible voice I have ever heard

I have a SHEXY new haircut

[timeittook]

i took 4 years of spanish in high school, i only passed spanish 1.
i hate not being multilingual.
i want to watch knife in the water.

[mpurr]

I wish my Italian was beyond the 3 year old level.

I secretly (well, not now) love the band Marilyn Manson.

My cat is on the FRACK tonight. sheesh.

[bluecrayon]

I dream sometimes in Spanish...

I dream sometimes of him...

I dream sometimes I am a guy...

[Curlita]

Lately I've been dreaming that I'm traveling around Europe with three of my friends... but I'm spending the whole time worrying about making train connections, etc.

I want some hot chocolate. I have been a chocolate fiend lately.

I was thinking about watching a movie and crafting or knitting, but now it is too late. Maybe I will crawl in bed with my book.

Bonus #4
This is the LAST NIGHT I will need to sit at home alone while my husband is schlepping around at work until midnight! He'll be home early tomorrow and he starts a new job on Monday.

[Bugitha]

I wish I could go to work in my pajamas. And slippers

1. At my job we really push the idea of casual fridays because we ARE allowed to wear pajamas on that day so long as they conform to the dress code (nothing shorter than mid-thigh, nothing sleeveless, no bare tummies). No slippers allowed, though.

2. I have not yet taken advantage of these ultra casual fridays, but I like the fact that I could if I wanted to.

3. I had too much food for dinner tonight.

[nymphette]

1: i love julie's monkey cheese picture!!!

2: i didnt' get a picture with perfectmonkey at earl's... i just kept forgettting..... :(

3: my best friend wants to open a cheese shop in regina (because we haven't anything like that...)... i told her she has to call it cheesemonkey's and she agreed... :) she also volunteered to pose on perfectmonkey's lap in her caveman halloween costume... :)

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

I want a sock monkey, really, really badly.

I have no reasonable explanation as to why this is so.

I'm only half here, I don't know where the other half is though, it's ESCAPED!!!! Beware!

[chunkymonkey]

1. I'm not completely awake yet

2. I missed the late night forum fun :(

3. probably will miss if for a week or two cause I am on a normal sleep schedule for awhile.

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- I am a big fat pig.

-2- I hate myself.

-3- My coffee tastes like soap. :(

2. Heather should not hate herself! (we all love you!)

3. Heather's coffee should not taste like soap!

2. I missed the late night forum fun :(




Hmm, actually, it doesn't look like there were too many people hanging here on the forums last night -- sigh.

I'm hoping when Tom comes back, it will be bristling with energy once more here.

None of my favorite games have been bumped up and now I have to go to work frustrated!!!!

Ah, well...

[sarahkate]

1. I'm lonely! I sit in my cubicle all day and don't talk to anyone (except all of you guys of course). I guess I COULD talk to some of my coworkers but I just don't want to. I don't have much in common with them. Cory's email isn't working at the moment, and a friend I talk to on Yahoo Messenger isn't on right now, so I have no one to talk to. *sigh* poor me :P

2. I think I will be spending this weekend once again trying to catch up on Nervousness stuff. I think that's how I have spent my last 3 weekends. :huh:

3. Cory bought me a small box of Valentine's chocolates last night because I was saying how I wanted one last time we were in the grocery store. I only ate 2 pieces last night & coincidentally they were both strawberry flavor inside - those are one of my favorite kinds :wub:

My daughter got a sock monkey for Christmas from her dad

She's going to see him tomorrow and I'll have her ask him where he got it

I'd love to be able to send Holly a sock monkey

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- I have never called anyone a Republican or a Christian in an insulting way, because I don't think that's nice, and I don't think either of those things is inherently a bad thing to be.

-2- I happen to like Senator John McCain (http://mccain.senate.gov/), which is not to say that I agree with everything he says.

-3- I hate feeling like I need to apologize when I actually haven't done anything wrong.

[mpurr]

Many cats prefer the scent of canned tuna over the scent of roast beef

Dita Von Teese is much more attractive than her boyfriend

Cats should be given whatever they want, whenever they want it. (~from TriXy)

we read a poem at school today about an "ugly" girl apologizing for not being a barbie. i commented that the girl probably offed herself and my teacher agreed and said i was morbid.
i drink gatorade almost compulsively.

[cindi1023]

**Removed because of incriminating evidence**

[sarahkate]

1. I wish I could take a "mental health" day off of work!

2. Today is one of those days when I'm just sad and it seems there is not a glimmer of happiness in sight.

3. Sometimes I want to start over. Anyone want to trade lives with me? :P

[timeittook]

i have nilla waffers. they are yummy.
my puppy gets surgery wednesday to remove a tear duct that popped out.
my puppy decided 1am was time to bark and wake my house up.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i went out with dad at 10 this morning

2. went to post office (mailed bunch of things), bank, and Loomis art store

3. came back around 1:15pm to message on phone from matt, just saying hi - called back, got his answering machine

[gwensmom]

1. My leave of asbsence from work was granted!

2. who cares about more facts- i am so excited!

3. See #2

[hainlam]

1... it is freakishly cold today
2.. I wish my boss would go to lunch, so I could have some peace
3. I am so glad it is Friday.. and I don't have to work tomorrow.

[sarahkate]

1. Yay for gwensmom! That's great! :D

2. My mood is rapidly improving as the work day nears the end.

3. I think timeittook's sketch comedy thread helped boost my mood because now I am giggling to myself thinking of all of the funny SNL & Mad tv sketches I love.

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- I dislike Mad TV. Maybe I am too old for it or something, but I always get grossed out by the sketches and don't laugh at all.

-2- My office is damn noisy right now. I wish people would shut up.

-3- I bought a hat, toddler-size, from the university store. I have to give it to my cousin tomorrow, because his bar mitzvah project is to collect hats for kids who get chemo at Johns Hopkins hospital. Sad. But a good project.

[cryptaesia]

soooo ive deciede to try to get the gig opening for neubauten.........

yesterday i had a meeting with some eager video and film students who are planning to help me out by producing the visual element of my live show

im so anxious im sick

[Death_Or_Aldona]

1. I remember liking mad tv OK once in a while...there were a couple funny skits. The one I will always remember is the rudolph one...actually I can't remember any of the others...I must not have really liked the show much either...

2. There are few tv shows I do like...I liked The State....it was the best. All the shows I liked got cancelled...I don't have cable, that's ok...tv sucks my days away...not the the computer doesn't...but...it's different...yeah...

3. I never ramble...I hate sneezing...I wish I could stop....

[sarahkate]

1. I haven't seen Mad tv in a long time. I miss it! Some of the skits are not funny at all but the ones that are funny make the show worthwhile, I think.
