1. Hubs is currently in upstate New York freezing his hiney off... :D

1. It's actually not too bad up here this week! Lucky for him he wasn't here the past few weeks when our temps didn't seem to get above 10° F, so this week it actually seems "warm." Right now it's 22° F here. Wahoo... a heat wave :P

2. I am very hungry. I brought a can of Campbell's vegatable soup (the kind with the alphabet letters) with me for lunch. I can't wait to eat it.

3. I can't wait until spring. I love the first day of the year when the temperature gets up into the 50s or so and everyone is in a good mood and driving around with their windows down because it seems like spring is finally here. Ahh...can't wait for that day.

-2- My favorite American accents are middle-class and upper-class Georgia and North Carolina accents. I also have a fondness for Boston accents and Minnesota accents.

yay! i when i talk to my family i get a north carolinean(is that a word?) accent. not because i want to but because thats how i'm used to speaking to them.
i like accents of canadians as well. my physical therapist is from on the border and when i talk to her she'll speak US english but then an "eh?" or "aboot" pops out of her mouth and i laugh at her. and then spend the next half hour picking on her and us laughing.
i like mexican accents also. i can't do them. whenever i try it comes out middle eastern. i'm glad i don't need an accent for spanish class.:)

1. Sometimes I say "aboot" or "sooda" (and other words that I can't think of right now) and I don't know why. I think it sounds kind of like a Minnesota accent, though I have never been there or Canada, so I don't know why those pronounciations pop out of my mouth.

2. You wouldn't think people in upstate NY would have accents, but around here there are so many people who sound like total hicks. I don't know where it comes from. And they put "the" in a sentence where it doesn't belong, for example "I went to THE Walmart last night." That drives me crazy. Or they say "I went to the Walmarts last night." Agh! It's ONE WALMART!! Ther eis no need for an S. :spank:

3. When I was younger my family would go back to Massachusetts to visit our relatives usually once every year. I remember on the way back home, going down the Mass Pike, I would always forget if I lived in New York, or Yew Nork. I was so crazy.

1. You have to remember that we're used to MUCH warmer temps! It's been bouncing between the 30's and 50's here, lately.... so 10 degrees is butt-chapping to us! And there's SNOW on the ground.... I can't even remember the last time I saw snow in person!

2. I forgot my lunch today, and I'm just too lazy to go out and get anything. Guess I'll eat triscuits and coffee for lunch... :huh:

3. I really enjoyed the peace of having the house to myself last night, but it freaks our kitties out when one of us is missing, so they were acting strange all evening...

[cindi1023]

1. I really like this new smilie: :poke:

2. I can imagine kittymao using it frequently... :P

3. I use this smiley :P all the time, though I almost never stick my tongue out in real life....

[chunkymonkey]

1. I don't seem to be very concerned with anything today.

2. eeek tomorrow is friday the 13th :unsure:

3. I now know why the sky is blue.

1. Ah that's right. And tomorrow is my sister's 17th birthday. Feb. 13, 1987 - the day she was born was on a Friday also and it was a full moon. I think my little sister is a werewolf :o

2. I think the sky appears to be blue because it's a reflection of the ocean or something like that. Maybe I'm wrong. I don't know.

3. Time to go make my soup!

i have to avoid doing that. if i just speak i have been known to slip in "the" for just about everything.:)

i like wearing a tie. i look cute today.:)

1. Well watch out because if I catch you doing it ...well...there will be hell to pay! :yell: :lol: (just kidding!0

i like wearing a tie. i look cute today.
2. Wow. I don't think I have ever heard a man say they like wearing a tie. I'm in shock.

3. My soup is good, in case anyone wanted to know. I just wish I had some crackers.

[Curlita]

* Mmmmm. I brought crystallized ginger with me today to munch on at my desk. Yum.

* I had insomnia last night, so I have been awake since 3:30 AM.

* An unprecedented occasion: an insurance company and I agree on something! My old insurance company just wrote to tell me that they will not pay for the MRI a doc referred me for b/c they didn't think it was medically necessary. I'd already cancelled the appointment. I had reduced hearing in one ear for 4 days in November and it quit as soon as I went on prednisone - I don't think I have a brain tumor. So I'll do my part toward reducing the high cost of medical insurance by passing on the MRI, thanks.

[cindi1023]

1. I just received 2 dozen white tulips from Hubs....

2. He's so sweet! :wub:

3. I can't even call him to tell him thank you because he's meeting with customers all day today....

[lobstergirl]

And they put "the" in a sentence where it doesn't belong, for example "I went to THE Walmart last night." That drives me crazy.

when i was 13, i was telling my borther how much i liked the band SPARKS, and i said "The Sparks" and wow...did he lecture me! that lecture continues to float thru my head every friggin time i listen to, read about or mention the band SPARKS! :D

i live in a cute neighborhood cal "Los Feliz" and everyone pronounces it "Los Fee-Liz" while i pronounce it is "Los Fel-leece" which I'm pretty sure is the correct pronounciation especially considering I'm in Los Ang-hel-es which has a rich mexican culture! :P

my previous nanny post was almost like the Nanny Diaries but not nearly as bad. My new one kicks butt but I am surrounded by ridiculous "hollywood" people who live their lives through their nannies, assistants & stylists! ;)

(my fave indie radio station is KXLU and they are now on the internet but my computer is too slow to accept the feed...but if you really like INDIE INDIE...check out KXLU!)

[sarahkate]

1. Awww.. Cindi's husband is so sweet! :)

2. I wish I was a nanny. I almost got a job as a nanny about a year and a half ago, but they were only going to pay me $7.50 per hour! So I had to turn it down.

3. THIS (http://www.neen.org/demo/clinger.swf) is creepy!

-1- Lobstergirl, I think that your brother and my brother are spiritual twins. I have gotten very similar lectures. (BTW, did they do the song "Cool Places"? I dig that song.)

-2- I just took my first steps toward quitting the bane of my existence: the YMCA. Woo-hoo! I can't wait until I never have to go in that stinky, teenager-infested locker room again!

-3- I posted a recipe on Live Journal (in the hip_domestics community) and people are loving it! That makes me feel good.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 it's thursday (bathroom day) again

2 i really ought to mail my zeitgeist stuff!

3 i'll package it tonight, so it can go by the weekend, monday latest

[Cuilanië]

- Work today was hell, and will be worse tomorrow.

- Tomorrow I'll be traveling in two slightly different directions, sort of.

- I'll have a split personality all weekend.

[sarahkate]

1. I just had an Oh HENRY. I don't think I have ever had one before today. I must say Oh Henry is mighty good. (Now I'm imagining how this fact looks to people who didn't know that Oh Henry is a candy bar :lol:)

2. My life really is sad. I have been staring at a computer screen since a little after 8:30 this morning, and at 5:00 I will be going home, eating my leftover pineapple pizza, then going on my computer at home where I will continue to stare at the screen until at least 10:30 or 11:00 PM. I have no choice though, I have computer related N'ness stuff to work on.

3. I want to see that new Adam Sandler & Drew Barrymore movie.

[kittymao]

That link rocked, sarahkate. it was like... if man could swim like a dolphin. It was so mesmerizing. Preeeeeetty.

Uhm. I'm leaving later today and be home sunday. An extended Valentine's weekend. Whee!

It's pretty nice out today- high 50's. I want to go outside and play ball or bask in the sun or take a walk or just... ANYTHING! But I have stuff to do.

[freckledcutie]

I'm taking myself to see this either tomorrow or Saturday night

It's part of my Valentine's present to myself

yay me!

[Cuilanië]

- I've never been much of a Valentine's Day person...

- However...

- :)

[sarahkate]

1. Aww! Sounds like Eve has a hot V-Day date!! :P Spill the details girl! :)

2. I want a box of Valentines chocolates but I want it filled with only the kinds I like. :)

3. I wonder if my bf even remembers that Saturday is V-Day.

[Cuilanië]

details, details... ^_^

well... he's wonderful (...) :wub:

I love his sense of humour :)

I'm all shy now...

[sarahkate]

1. Awww! Yay for Eve & her object of desire!! :wub: :)

2. I'm jealous. I wish I had someone to swoon over. Yes, I have a bf, but not much swooning and romance going on there. <_<

3. :rofl: - this face looks more like a kid laying on the ground having a temper tantrum in the middle of a store because he wants a toy that his mom won't buy him rather than rolling on the floor laughing.

[gwensmom]

Eve will tell us the details later. She doesn't like to confess too much at once. I am glad there is something good going on!

One of Gwens babysitters has been sick all week so I had to "sleep" in Gwen's room last night. About 2 am. I thought I heard her whimpering but when I got up to look at her she was grinning from ear to ear and giggling in her sleep! Gwen can smile and coo but she rarely laughs anymore and never giggles. She looked like a regular girl doing that.

Gwensdad and I are cranky and fighting so I doubt I'll get anything for v-day. Nothing new about that. :violin: Who cares, I already got a valentine from Kittymao!

[Cuilanië]

- Despite appearances, Eve is actually pretty shy...

- This - :rock: - makes me think of the opening credits of South Park. :o :P :rolleyes:

- I've restarted my mix CD again. ^_^

[tanagee]

I am not a 'valentinesy' kind of person. I could really care less if I get anything for Valentines day. But, I do like sending cards to people.

Not to say that I don't appreciate getting something for VD, I just think you should show/tell people you love them any and every day of the year.

I feel the same about Mothers and Fathers day.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i signed up for postcardx today

2 it sure took me long enough, i've been hearing about it for ages

3 i think some peeps should team up with me and we should send ALL the portland, oregon postcardx members postcards telling them to check out the zeitgeist show ( we should coordinate merely to ensure sending to as many as we can, and not sending several to one and none to another)

[tanagee]

live in a cute neighborhood cal "Los Feliz" and everyone pronounces it "Los Fee-Liz" while i pronounce it is "Los Fel-leece" which I'm pretty sure is the correct pronounciation especially considering I'm in Los Ang-hel-es which has a rich mexican culture!
One of my old boyfriends was from Thailand and his parents called it "los fillip"


I put 100+ miles on my car today running an errand for Hubby so I had a lot of time to think. (does 100 miles count as an errand?) So I am just going to post all my random thoughts at once!

1. It feels awkward to refer to my hubby by his 'given' name when talking about him to people. (Jimmy)

2. But on the flip-side I feel weird calling him by his nickname to people who don't call him that or even really know him. (Gee)

3. However, I don't have a problem refering to him by his 'professional' name, the one all the race-car guys know him as. (Jimmy G)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

a. It is weird that I have no problem driving 100+ miles, and actually enjoy driving, because when I got my licence however long ago I wouldn't drive at night or on the freeway

b. I used to have an SUV, but it thought it was a DOG and rolled over.

c. When bored, I used to call up a friend of mine and we would just get in the car and drive. We ended up in Ventura once, had fish tacos and turned around.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i. even though I am a native Califorian I never went to Hollywood until I was 18 years old, and when we did I was afraid to get out of the car. (my friends used the line from Valley Girl on me "If they rush the car...save the radio" to get me out of the car)

ii. Ironically, 8 years later I lived in Hollywood and used to walk on Sunset Blvd; from the Laundrymat to McDonalds to get dinner on laundry night.

iii. We used to go to the Mann Chinese and the Galaxy Theatre (the theatre they shot the 'at the movie scene' at in the Buffy The Vampire Slayer movie) on the weekends for matinees.
#################################################

1. I am 33 years old and I baby-sit for 'pocket money'

2. I have an affinty for bands with lead singers who have that "raspy-screamy" voice (ie Linkin Park, Offspring, Stabbing Westward.)

3. I have forgotten a lot of the other stuff I was thinking about in the car. (lucky for y'all)

edited to add: I remembered my last random fact: My Hubby built the transmission for the 'main' Ford Torino used in the Starsky & Hutch movie coming out w/ Ben Stiller & Owen Wilson

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- Chris is downstairs having a half.com spending spree. So far he's ordered The Complete Far Side, Mr. Show season 1, and two years of Best American Poetry. He keeps saying, "What else do we need..." :yay:

-2- Our old real estate agent dropped in on us tonight. It was very strange, since we bought the house 2.5 years ago and haven't seen her in the meantime. She brought us coffee mugs and chocolate, and a pile of her business cards.

-3- Today I was wondering what names Curlita was thinking about -- not that it's time to decide, yet, necessarily. I just love names.

Really? Most of the boys I know are rather stylish, and like wearing ties, at least occasionally.

i like mexican accents also. i can't do them. whenever i try it comes out middle eastern.
yeh. my mom loathes joe & myself for always depicting her for having a middle eastern accent. and in reality, her voice really does sound like that in my head and i just cannot force myself to learn to do her voice justice.

i used to speak spanish fluently when i was 3. my father being born and raised in south GA and only kinda racist - made me stop speaking it becuase he was afraid me and my mother were sending secret messages to each other in spanish. which leads me to wonder why he married a mexican woman in the first place. this, along with a long list of horrid things my dad does - i still adore him. is that sick?

i was supposed to wash the floors tonight. :middle: how many people wanna guess that that's happening?

[timeittook]

i wish i spoke better spanish. it's scary when krystal's mom and family start talking in spanish and i can only make out a few words(i.e. cabron).

i'm eating popcorn and playing with an extremely out of tune guitar. fun fun.

i am working on mix cds tonight also.

[cryptaesia]

this is not fun

i want d-o-a

where is that silly head?

[Dalmaney]

1. Tomorrow will be a beautiful Friday.

2. I have plans to go tobogganing (or rather... tubing/crazy-carpetting) tomorrow night for the first time this winter.

3. However old I get, I hope I will always appreciate the kid things in life.

[medeous]

1. i hate the way my mouth tastes after i drink milk
2. sometimes people really piss me off by just being themselves.
3. i have made an ATC that i can't part with. ever.

I'm very tired.

I have no more leftovers, so I'd better make some more.

This Valentine's Day will be a lot less ideal than it ought to be, but a lot better than any recently.

1. probably not. my scanner doesn't work.
2. someone at work is giving me their computer because they can't get the CD drawer to close. maybe it just needs a good thwack with the heel of my shoe.
3. half day tomorrow, no school on monday, yay me.

[kflorathorne]

i just posted a new object on the main site.

i'm kinda scared becuase many projects similar to this have died half-way thought the chain.

i guess thats the chance i take in trying to get it off the ground.

(:ph34r: the secret ninja smiley is very suspicious....)

[VeronicasLovebug]

1. i wish i could be in new jersey for valentines day :(

2. but instead i am stuck in missouri

3. veronicas valentines present won't get mailed off until saturday...but hopefully she still likes it :D :wub:

[medeous]

1. i would love to be in lovebug's part of missouri, as that is where my sweetie resides.
2. i don't have anything valentiney to wear to school today.
3. i agree for the most part with mpurr's recent posting on membership. i have nothing more to add.

[sarahkate]

1. Today is my sister's 17th birthday.

2. I remember her first birthday. She tried to grab the lit candle on her cake.

3. Now I feel old.

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- When I called the YMCA to tell them I wanted to quit, the man on the phone said, "Oh no! Are you dying or something?" I don't know if he was trying to be funny or what, but it was weird.

-2- I already have my state and federal tax refunds. Woo-hoo!

-3- Tomorrow I will attempt to buy my brother and Bridget a wedding present. I have in my mind a burl bowl, but maybe something else will strike my fancy.

[stargal1998]

1. Tomorrow (V-day) is the 1 year and 10 month anniversary of nick and I dating. 22 months... weird.

2. We're going to my parent's house. He doesn't like my parents and I am sure something will be said that will tick someone off.

3. My parent's hinted that they're buying me the new edition of Alice in Wonderland, which rocks because if they insist on buying me something for the holidays, I ask for one of those overpriced masterpiece disney DVDs, because it's something i would like, but would rarely buy because they're always over $15.

[sarahkate]

1. A new edition of Alice in Wonderland?! :o I must go do some research. I *heart* Alice!

2. I am taking Monday off of work because I just felt like I needed a long weekend. Yahooo.

3. I didn't get a present for my sister's b-day yet. I suppose tonight I should go to the mall and try to find something cheap, but cool. I hate when I don't have tons of money to buy presents. I always think of great ideas for gifts for other people, but they are always gifts I can't afford to buy. :(

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- Sarah, if your sis (Janelle?) likes to read, you should get her that book I mentioned in my LJ. I want everyone to read that wonderful book. (http://www.powells.com/cgi-bin/biblio?inkey=7-0385509456-5)

-2- Chinese food, hooray hooray! I can't wait till lunch.

-3- I would like to know why Nick doesn't like Nicole's parents. Yes, I am nosy.

1. That's a good idea, though, Janelle is kind of in that stage of "all I care about are boys and clothes and shoes" so I don't know if she would actually read it or not. Maybe I should just skip buying her a present and buy myself that book instead. :lol:

2. I'm nosey too! Spill the beans Nicole!

3. I want chinese food. Mmm... I want some lo mein.

1. A new edition of Alice in Wonderland?!  :o  I must go do some research. I *heart* Alice!

It came out at the end of January. There's an extra chesire cat song, etc. It's similar to the Lion King, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White and Beauty and the Beast dvds Disney has come out with in the last 3 years. 2 discs, tons of features, remastered art so they're clearer. I don't know why, but I feel like if I have one then I have to get all of them... LOL.

3 Random (long Facts) about my nusto family. I could go on, but I won't...

1. My mom is a little weird/psycho/strange/talkative. She likes to say things and then see what people say. Usually the thing that sets Nick off is when she talks about cars... And that ticks me off because he used to get mad when she made fun of me, and that kinda made me happy because I felt like I mattered. Normally when they meet, they curse at each other and tease one another and then they both hold a grudge after and come yelling at me about it. And I've told both of them that if they have a problem to discuss it with the person that said problem is with. But do they? No! I think she and Nick just really like to argue and then fight for attention. And Nick HATES the way she cooks, and will refuse to eat the things she cooks even if he adores it because she made it.

2. My (step) dad is really mellow. Very soft voice, funny laugh. I think he had too much fun in the 70s. He has 2 modes: a) Let my mom walk all over him and then hide in the basement with the 3 tvs and various electronics that don't work for 2-3 hours. B ) Start saying things back to her, which are really funny, but totally not casting the right image. Sometimes she runs upstairs and starts crying when he does this (possibly for attention), other times she dishes it back. My dad is hilarious though, if we're sitting at dinner and it's quiet, he breaks out with "I drive a Dodge Stratus" (SNL skit--episode with Sara Michelle Gellar) and he tries to be cool so hard...He broke out in the running man and cabbage patch one day when I was 20 or so, trying to teach me how to dance. He loves music and weird books, so he's cool, but can cause my mom to wig out.

3. My little brothers have been told that women are evil, and living with my mom I am sure that she backs it up on a daily basis. She told them to never let anyone ever touch them anywhere in they're "bathing suit area." EVER. Even when they get married! Of course, they say they aren't getting married because women are evil and they don't like girls (thanks mom, at least when I was partially invested in raising them they were more normal). Now, Nick is totally against everything she's told them and he tries to 'manify' the boys at all times, which never works out because James (14) tries to do the things Nick says to but always messes it up, and Jon (12) is short and self concious and a lot like me when I was younger, so of course he'll do 85% of what I ask him too but doesn't really like taking direction from anyone else, making Nick and the rest of the Fam as I call them, go crazy. And he cusses which kids in my family never do (I still don't because it makes the boys think its okay and I don't want them to think it is). She tries to make sure everything is equal for all 3 of us kids and that's just not going to work out. I'm a decade or more OLDER than her kids, and I do not need the same things they do.

[lobstergirl]

i'm also 33 (will be next next week) and baby-sit for cash! :P

my 4 year old ward tells me she wants to be a babysitter when she grows up!

actually, i love my life. i'm completely broke, paying off debt. still paying for my car and i don't own a house yet but, i have a wonderful wonderful boy who polkas with me in the living room, we have mastered the art of doing nothing & my free time, is MY free time!!

By the way, whatever happened about your going or not going to the shower?

[cindi1023]

1. This new medicine I'm on is making me feel really wierd....

2. I feel like I've spent the greater part of this morning on the phone bitching. First I had to cancel a flower delivery order, because the stupid place I ordered them from (to be delivered LAST WEDNESDAY!) still hasn't delivered the flowers!!!!! Then someone from a moving company was supposed to meet with me at 10:00 a.m. to discuss an estimate for our upcoming office move. It's now almost 12:30 and I still haven't heard from her! I called her office and left a very bitchy voicemail. Don't think we'll be hiring them! I wish they could see me doing this: :middle:

3. Gads! At least our office is closed on Monday for President's Day.... so I've got a nice long weekend to look forward to....

3- Tomorrow I will attempt to buy my brother and Bridget a wedding present
By the way, whatever happened about your going or not going to the shower? [/b][/quote]
Ahh, yes. Well, it wasn't the shower, it was the bachelorette party. And I am going-- I never sent Bridget that email-- but happily, my aunts are going too, so I won't be "alone." And Bridget did reassure me that there won't be male strippers or anything embarrassing, so that's good. I am sure I will be posting ALL about it in 3 Random Facts on March 7. Stay tuned!

[Lilac]

1) I am working form home today! I havent done this for about three months!!

2) I'm so hungry right now that my hands are shaking!

3) There is nothing appatizing in my kitchen, though...so I guess I'll just go on being hungry for a while.

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- This is the 11th day of no Death_or_Aldona on the forums. That makes me sad.

-2- The disgusting reference librarian was talking with her mouth full during lunch and some of her beef with broccoli landed in my chinese food container. She didn't even notice! Thankfully, it landed on the underside of the lid, and not in my food, but it still made me lose my appetite.

-3- I want to go home now. By this time on Friday, I am fully sick and tired of work.

1. Ewww. Gross! I don't blame you for losing your appetite.

2. I miss D-O-A too. Come back soon Jamie!!

3. WonkyWalkingShoe hasn't been around much lately. I miss her too. :(

[medeous]

short day and 2 out of 3 classes did not show up.
i'm babysitting a kindergartner who's dad won't let him participate in their party.
stupid meeting in 40 minutes.

[bluecrayon]

56 valentines later, I guess I don't care if I ever cut a paper heart out again!

I'm putting on my black into the wall outfit...

I'm home for 37 more minutes...

2. as requested, hehe, my latest I'm on a diet and I miss tasty food dream: The night before last I had a dream that I was on some sort of crazy shopping spree at a supermarket. You know running through the aisles with my arms full of tubs of ice cream... terrified I won't make it to the finish line before the time is up. It would have been great if I'd gotten to eat the damn ice cream before I work up. No such luck.

3. I lost 11 pounds as of this morning so I will take all the crazy food craving dreams that come way. I hope I have chinese tonight :D

found this in the wish list thread for doa:

Other than that stuff, I collect rubber duckies and religious paraphernalia. I love ATCs, Decos, postcards, collage materials, handmade envies, minibooks, handmade bookmarks, retro stuff (especially retro scifi,) purple kitties and black kitties and striped kitties, and nearly anything with big eyes...


and her wishlist
My impossible wishes (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/registry/WP305PLDHFAB/ref=cm_wlinvite_email_wl)

I just did a burnt cd trade with her so I know she doesn't mind burnt cds. :)


And thanks :)

1. I need to change my avatar. I am sick of looking at my dorky self everytime I post :P

3. Why is the thought of putting cheese (http://www.amazon.com/gp/browse.html/ref=sc_fe_c_5_0/103-0704356-3556632?%5Fencoding=UTF8&node=3587391&no=3370831&me=ATVPDKIKX0DER) on ones Amazon.com wishlist so funny? :lol:

[kittymao]

somehow, between the last time I was here and right now, a whole slew of boy pictures have suddenly popped up on the forums, hiding behind average looking screen-names. 'tis a weird thing.

Blah. I like coming to Rudy's house cause it's nicer than mine- but I hate being here by myself. He never seems to get that. He likes to come home and see me waiting for him- you know, the MAN thing. But it frankly drives me BANANAS.

Hm. I want cereal and a quesadilla and rice and beans and apple juice and soda and ice cream. And you know- I can have any of those becuase- ALL OF THAT IS HERE! as opposed to my house where there is freezer-burned stirfry and luncheon meat.

[Curlita]

1. I am very tired again, still.

2. Tonight we're going out to eat at Johnny Rockets. I would not, ordinarily, be excited about this, but I am really craving a chocolate coke.

3. After that we're going to see Cold Mountain. Hopefully I can stay awake. Not that I'm thinking it will not be a very good movie; see #1.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

DOA - Jaime is cool. She made the forums cool.
hehehe I have NO! - they might be giants it's on her list... actually i have it out on loan, I should get that back.
Tom Robbins skinny legs and all..... my firend erica keeps telling what a great book that is. I enjoyed Even cowgirls get the blues. Indeed. Tom robbins is quite funny.

I think it's really neat when someone else has a similar wishlist to mine.

I wish I had more money so I could do more things for more people.

[stargal1998]

1. Nick is being a tush head. I think I could get away with :spank: ing him...

2. I got penpal letters today... Yay!

3. I have a huge to do list tonight...

huh? What? What's going on? Who's the devil and why now then?!!? I have no idea.

I am making an amazon wishlist, I don't know why.... all I ever really want is more oils paints and canvas.

I posted my picture in the picture thread but not a comment has been made on it as of yet. It must mean it IS scary!

[sarahkate]

Ha! This is what was going on, I said this a few hours ago:

3. WonkyWalkingShoe hasn't been around much lately. I miss her too.

and then you showed up just a little while later so I said this:

2. Hey - speak of the devil, there's Wonky!! Not that I think she is the devil or anything, but you know what I mean.

Ahh....technology...so confusing!

Oh yes, some facts:

1. I saw Wonky's picture. I think it was very nice. I thought about commenting in there and saying that she looked kinda like Toni Collette, a little bit, but then I thought, no I shouldn't say that, because Toni Collette is much older than Wonky and she might take offense to that. But I just said it anyway, so don't think that's a bad thing - Toni Collette is a purrrty lady & so is Wonky ;)

2. I like cookbooks, but I'm not a good cook.

3. Hey - where is Seusomon? He seems to be missing too.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

oh yeah!! haha ha
I was sick and Cryptaeisa hogs the computer most of the time on top of that. I'm around though and mailing up a STORM!!!

I read the thread on memberships and nominations and such and it got me thinking that gee, if I had not been nominated so quickly I would have given up and then there wouldn't be a travelling head.

Toni Collette? That's a new one. Neat.

[stargal1998]

1. sarahkate's avatar is DEFINITELY not dorky.

2. The guy in the cubicle behind me just did a magic trick.

3. I have a piece of dry skin on each side of my mouth. They aren't cold sores, but they feel like it. I think they're from when I sleep at night and leave my mouth open or something. Usually if I do this to my lips and I lick them it burns... aghhh!

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

OOOH MAN!!!!!
I think the exchange for "A day in my life" photographs was imaginary. I have these photos and no one to send them to. GEEEZ Like who the heck is going to want a WHOLE roll of film's worth of pictures from a day in my life. How dull.

I wish I could say this is the least retarded thing I've done this week, but I can't say it without it being a filthy lie!!!

I'm going to have a nap or something I think.

1. I thought is was pretty cool too, although the whole thing with the sock and the spatula (lol i thin???) took some gettign used to.

2. I probably would have stopped reading that book had I not been in a miserable place desperate for something to do.

3. I made atc's last night that I quite like. AND they weren't even for an exchange or lmao... just because. :P

1. told another child "suck my balls, motherf*cker."
2. told a teacher "suck my balls, hag."
3. flung poo at other little boys in the restroom.

1. I cannot decide what cheese to add to my wihslist.

2. A Wishlist is not complete without cheese.

3. Next time I do a LMAO and the shipping and everything totals $1.05, remind me to tell people it is cool to just send a dollar. Suddenly I have a bunch of cheese monkey change.

[Dalmaney]

1. I am sick of asking people for rides.

2. I think I may just stay home, watch tv, and say "fuck it" to the world for an evening.

3. Tomorrow will be better.

[Sirius]

I like to annoy my hubby's friends in Chicago by pronouncing the 's' at the end of Illinois. They always correct me.

1. Calling it Wrigley's filed instead of Wrigley Field sends them into a tizzy as well.

2. I had the fortune to hear someone else make the mistake and get attacked, so...

3. Now I'll never know if I would have made the same mistake.

[Curlita]

1. I must check into this cheese wishlist thing. I have been craving cheese lately.

2. I bought some tasty Finn Lapi cheese last time I went shopping. It is creamy and a little bit sharp.

3. I hid it in the back of the meat drawer under some other things so that my husband will not find it and I can have all that delicious cheese to myself. Does that make me a bad person?

[bluecrayon]

I seem to have been here all day while I was over there all day...

this just underscores my schizoid test results on that other thread!

Did any of you actually see me here???

[Katiekat]

1. I have lost 2 pounds and 4.75 inches since I started working out! YAY ME!! :P

2. I'm waiting for 2 boys to call me -- whoever calls first will be the one I go out with tonight! (Steve vs. Tony -- The Race is On.)

3. I need to take a shower. I want to take a nap. I will do the former, but probably not the latter.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

I have a set of wooden nesting dolls that are cool but could be way cooler.

I am thinking of sending them on a journey, to be altered by people for fun.

2. money is becoming the theme of our relationship (or lack of) and I hate it so much.

3. I'm feeling very unfree in this one major part of my life and then so free in another; and I feel guilty about the differences between them.

1. Party at my house tonight. Everyone's invited. Semi-formal dress, and there will be cheesecake for all.

2. I need to bully my house into being presentable to people.

3. I also need to decide what exactly I shall wear to pretend to be classy for an evening.

I woke up today and was surprised to realize that my head was still intact...

I can safely ignore Valentine's Day...

still, a box of chocolates would be nice...

I'm feeling very melancholy today

I don't think it's at all related to V-Day

I feel pathetic that my closest friends of late are inside of a bundle of wires

I have a sore throat with a lump because I am on the verge of crying

It's only because I'm PMS which has always made me extra cryie (new word)

I have created a lot today so that's a good thing

1. I'm now addicted to playing partners dominoes on yahoo.

1. i don't think you, or any of the rest of us are pathetic for feeling closer to people online than we do to others...online communities are usually a rather low-risk place for people to open up.

1. I got my hair cut last night... 6 inches taken off.... pretty drastic for me. It's now just skimming my shoulders. It's still all fluffy and flippy from being styled at the salon, so I find myself doing the shampoo-commercial-hair-flipping thing ever few minutes...

2. Hubs keeps laughing at me about #1.

3. I know when I wash and fix it tomorrow, it will not be cute or fluffy or flippy... :rolleyes: If I ever become obscenely rich, I'm hiring someone to fix my hair every day.

speaking of parties, I am having one tonight...... although I think that there will be no guests to speak of since it's valentines day and despite people SAYING they don't buy into it, they do and don't come to parties thrown by their friends so we can smash a human head pinata.

The sun is out today, and my blinds are open.

1. One of our cats likes to sit in one of my plants. It's called a Goldfish plant, because it gets the bright orange blooms that are shaped sort of like goldfish... But Sammie keeps mutilating it by sticking her butt right on top of it.

2. She also likes to chew on my aloe-vera plant.

3. I've only got thes 2 plants in the house, because I've got a seriously BLACK thumb. Somehow, I'm still able to keep these 2 plants alive, even with all the sitting and chewing... :D

Um, OK. Actually it was a single flower. A carnation. And it was from the guy at Jiffy Lube where I got my oil changed this afternoon--apparently all female customers were given flowers. But hey, ya takes what you can gets. :)

2. Ive been meaning to post for several pages (ever since the pronunciation-related posts) that I can't stand it when my friend, who has a Masters in English, for crying out loud, pronounces the word "Birthday" as "BirFday." It makes my teeth hurt to hear it pronunced that way.

3. Trader Joe's is a dangerous place to shop. I can't help but impulse buy when I'm there. Yesterday it was whole wheat orange bread and chocolate covered raspberries.

[Dalmaney]

1. I think I have everything I need for tonight, now.

2. We are getting absurdly dressed up for the symphony. It's not required... but I want to get dressed up and go out on V-Day, lack-of-boyfriend be damned.

3. I am not going to do any work today at all. I need a day without work very very very badly.

ooooo..... chocolate covered raspberries...... that sounds soooooo good!

1. Hubs made Valentine's day brunch today, complete with heart-shaped cinnamon pancakes.

2. I feel kind of bad, since I've pretty much locked myself in my craft-room to get some projects done (including Hubs' valentine's day card!), instead of spending the day with him.

3. We are planning on watching sappy movies tonight.... so maybe that makes up for it! Maybe?? :blink:

Well, that would have been nice! Guess what I decided to do today?...teach my homebound student their 3 hours for the week...that's where I am now...at school...she's finishing up some math problems for our little mini lesson.

I saw some chocolate on the way to the bathroom, though...on one of my friend's desks but I left it alone...didn't want to steal and all...even if it is chocolate and even if I did tell my friend on Monday I stole her little snickers

I worked out last night from 10 to midnight and will probably do the same again tonight...only about 5 people at the gym last night...it ws nice

[freckledcutie]

forgot to add...at least I'm making 23 dollars an hour

that's the one good thing about it

Hmmm...what if I bought 69 dollars worth of chocolate for the work I am doing on Valentine's Day...that's a thought

I usually buy them in Michael's, JoAnn Fabrics, or *gasp* Walmart, but for the past few months everytime I try to find some there are none! I am looking for the larger size - not the tiny ones. The closest I can find are the big ones that have an oil-like shimmer to them, so they aren't clear. Grrr.
1: me too!!!!!! all pearly now, no clear ones.. michael's, walmart, the loonie store..... sigh.... however, i found some that are only vaguely pearly.. almost completely clear... i placed them over several test subjects to see how they looked.. they're okay.... i'll send you some... :P

One of Gwen's babysitters is really sick this week and is going out of town for a month starting next week. the other one decided that she wanted to cut back from three nights a week to two. We are going to be really tired until we fill all these slots. :(
1: i'll send you a resume.... room and board baby!!!!!! ;) heh heh.... hey, i DO have experience and i am reliable and love kids.... and i dont' sleep, so....

2: i think i'd be able to sleep though, and perhaps even enjoy it, if other people would let me.... hm.... <_<

3: i haven't slept since sunday night.. and not a lot then.....

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i got roses.

2. well, my mom and I got roses (one small bunch, shared between the two of us).

3. they were from my sister.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. the boy's a dork. was talking to him on the phone yesterday and he asked me how much i thought a rose would cost at valentine's, so i said I wasn't sure, but they usually jack up the prices...

2. so he came over last night. didn't bring me flowers. or chocolate. or a card.

3. i don't care as much as I expected i might. true, we're not "together" but we might as well admit we're "dating" because we act like it (yes he concurs).

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i was going to give him a little 3-pack of ferrero rochers, but i forgot about them. (oh well, now i can eat them... hehehe)

2. i sent him an ecard this afternoon, but i think i sent about 4, because the site was playing up, and so i kept sending until i got the 'card sent successfully message' (which also meant having to use a different card site). but i rec'd a confirmation of pickup email from the first site i was trying to send from... hence my thinking i actually sent several. oh well.

3. mom got me a caramilk chocolate egg. so, yum.

1: it could be pregnancy related... i had a terrible cough through both pregnancies (which disappeared when i gave birth)... with harrison, i was on two different inhalers, plus a nasal spray, and when i was in hospital before giving birth, it ws so bad that they got a specialist in to see me!!!! yikes!!!!

2: when you are nine months pregnant and having terrible hacking coughing fits, you make sure you go pee every ten minutes or so, regardless of whether you think you have to go... ;) especailly after your baby drops!!!!!

3: they gave me codeine while i was in the hospital to calm the spasms- after observing the spells i was having, they knew i wouldn't have the energy for childbirth when it came time!!!!!

1: the only canadians i have ever heard say 'eh' were dave thomas and rick moranis.... and i have lived in canada my whole life....

2: the only canadian i have ever heard say 'aboot' was this little old scottish man, with a heavy brogue, who used to come into the casino all the time when i worked there...

3: after i moved home from calgary, my sister and one of my cousins informed me that i now have a 'calgary accent'.... i have NO CLUE what that means.... :P

[cryptaesia]

we recieved a letter with some handmade envelopes by d-o-a yesterday

they were real swell

i miss d-o-a i think i'll write her back

[Christine_0701]

3: valentine's day sucks my ass.... chris and i have been fighting since monday morning... read that i am a bitch and he's paying the penalty for being alive....

on a happier note- everyone made it out of the hotel alive.... it was touch and go for a while... okay, since about eleven am on monday morning.....

the first day at the hotel, harrison's balloon on his g-tube broke and we had to go to the hospital and have it replaced..... two days later, the extension set (and the only one i had with me, and the laast one i had and the company didnt' send more, when i ordered more on the 3rd!!!!!) cracked and started leaking during his feed.... we ran out of formula and had to come home and cross the non- floor to get supplies.... it's been hell!!!! but it's almost over... i got my n'ness fix.. it's all good.... <sigh>

[tanagee]

Trader Joe's is a dangerous place to shop. I can't help but impulse buy when I'm there. Yesterday it was whole wheat orange bread and chocolate covered raspberries
I can't resist their Rice Krispie treats they have in the bread/muffin section. They are real authentic ones that taste like you made them yourself, instead of the overly sweet oily tasting ones made by Kelloggs.

3. I hid it in the back of the meat drawer under some other things so that my husband will not find it and I can have all that delicious cheese to myself. Does that make me a bad person?
I do that with ice cream...mmmm I think I'll go have some ice cream.

I have been eating the candy Megan recieved at her valentines party in parenting class, as I do not think a 2 year old needs to have suckers.

I let her have chocolate every once in a while because I am a weak mommy...evident by her being hopped up on M&M's when I went through the drive-thru.

Me and G are going to dinner tonight at a local, kind of 'divey' restaurant we recieved a gift certificate for...I wonder if I need a reservation?

[Dalmaney]

1. I think it's late enough for me to get dressed.

2. I am wearing my grad dress. It still fits; I still like it. I hope I'm not hopelessly out of style. ;)

3. Sometimes I like to dress up for no good reason.

[Katiekat]

1. I think I'm attracted to the guy at my optical shop.
2. My new glasses are giving me a headache.
3. I think it's kind of flattering to get drunk-dialed.

He he I took Gwen's candy a put it in a jar, slapped a ribbon around it and gave it to my grandmother as a valentine. Gwen has to eat pureed foods, so I made a nice soft cake for her class so they could all get hopped up on sugar just like the other kids.

Some nice people brought Gwen a huge heart shaped mylar ballon and she is loving it.

Gwensdad came through and brought me a Baskin Robbins ice cream pie for valentines day. That was cute because I tell him the reason I married him is that the first thing he ever bought me was ice cream.

[Curlita]

1. It's the weekend! It's the weekend! (not really news for most of you - my weekend starts on Saturday evening ans lasts until Monday evening).

2. Tonight my friend Lori and I are going to rent a movie and order a pizza.

3. And tomorrow, my friend Anastasia is coming to visit me. Yay!

[cindi1023]

1. I'm listeing to a song called Your New Boy by You Were Spiraling. Sounds kind of bluecrayon-ish doesn't it?!?! :D

[Sirius]

1. My nephew has never heard the Billy Idol song White Wedding.

2. This came up because a band he listens to (Murder somthing or other) does a cover of it.

3. I searched my cd collection and was surprised it is not on any of the cds in my collection.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

I have that Billy Idol song in my collection, I don't really care for it though.

I have eaten FAR FAR FAR too much sugar and candy.

Most people my age don't have sunday morning sugar hangoevers.

2. I'm becomming obsessed with manners and etiquette. Rude people really wind me up.

3. It's my Dad's 50th birthday on the 24th and I have no idea what to give him as a gift.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i just realised i haven't had ANY cinnamon hearts this year.

2. that's okay, i have a love-hate relationship with them anyway, and the stores might still have some left over (and on sale no less).

3. i wonder what mummy and i will do today... i would like a trip to Michael's, the post office will have to wait till tomorrow b/c it's sunday and it's shut, and we briefly discussed going to the McMichael Art Gallery but I don't know if that will happen...

bonus - starting to wake up... it's 11 minutes to 9 a.m.... mmm... coffee...

[thunderstorm_19]

1. bruschetta - is spelled correctly so far as i can see

2. i shall shower and dress next (i almost invariably come down here with my coffee whilst still in my jammies first)

3. mum and i watched a little bit of the movie "pumpkin" last night. neither of us enjoyed it much, so we stopped it, and started watching "shakespeare in love" instead (we didn't sit through the whole thing though b/c we were tired)

-it is supposed to snow 4 to 6 inches tonight. i'll waste this time doing homework, working on other stuff, and sleeping at krystal's.
-i'm going to try to make incense sometime soon. i always wondered how hard it would be. maybe making soap or paper would be fun too.
-tomorrow i haven't got an english class so i get to wake up at like 9 instead of 6:30.

[Ishba]

1) no. I left her there. In fact, she's still in there. ~~~

2) :huh:

3) Of course I saved her! I just had to get photo documentation. She wasn't scared or anything... just mildly embarrassed. :P

It's very weird, though

My daughter loved it, too so we have the DVD

[Bugitha]

1. I hate my mailman. Actually its a woman. She sometimes forgets to pick up outgoing mail--though I don't see how since its clipped to the very same place where she places incoming mail. Anyhoo. I had 10 Nervousness things to go out and now they won't go till Tuesday since Monday is a holiday. :yell:

2. I finally bought a membership to the art museum, in part so I can go any time for free, but mostly so I can get a discount on the bookarts class I'm taking there. They also have a weekend art doll workshop I'm thinking about taking.

3. I signed up for the flylady list last week and already my place is much cleaner and better organized. This makes me happy, even though I feel like a dork that I have to get emails to remind me to put my laundry away. :D

2. I have cleaned up the apartment and written the theory for a lab report so far today.

3. Now it's time to go to church and have fun with the rest of today. :yay:

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

Figured out the sewing machine. Jenny has been broken, she's our bitch now.

I altered one leg of a pair of jeans and I am too lazy to finish and do the other leg.

I have an art doll to makle still, I just need a better stuffing than small noodles..... i thought noodles would work but....... yeah I don't think so.

[chunkymonkey]

1. my "to do" list seems so huge but really it's not.

I keep running around like a monkey yelling, " I do get the day off tomorrow" and then laughing this crazy laugh

I'm the only one here...well, me and my tailless (not a word) kitty and my 2 dogs...kendra went to a friend's to spend the night after being gone all weekend and coming home today only to watch a movie and take a nap (she went on a church retreat this weekend)

[medeous]

1. i am wondering if FC's kitten's tail fell victim to a random sewing machine attack and that is why she is worried about paws now.
2. i should clean my house...i'm more comfortable when my house is clean..but then why should i worry about my own comfort all the time? it's a sign of moral fortitude that i refrain from wanton cleanliness!
3. nah, i don't buy it either.

"hahaha," says kitty

Actually, I don't know what happened to her tail...vet told me she was a ____ (I forgot the name) which is half bobcat but I don't think so...the area I found her in had a lot of them

She was a stray when I was teaching at a k-8 country school years ago...she kept jumping up on the window ledge of the 7th and 8th grade classroom and they were throwing pencils and wadded papers at her and knocking her off the ledge...I went and got her and gave her a drawer in my desk with some burlap...she slept all day in that drawer except when I fed her a school lunch...she's been with me ever since

ever since is a bit country...sorry

My favorite Hitchcock movie is on...'Rear Window'

I so wish this was available to purchase

I have a few hundred hand tinted real photo postcards because I'm addicted to them

[freckledcutie]

I just found 'Rear Window' on Amazon...it's the DVD for 14 something

I didn't buy it

Too bad I have to pay Kendra's down payment for her spring break Florida trip to Disney World with the track team

I wish the star in my avatar twinkled.

I wish everyone would follow through on their commitments.

I wish my desk was clean.

Looking back on this page of 3 random facts I realized I could just turn my computer off and talk to myself

Somehow, I still feel like someone out there is cyberspace is listening to me even though they are only reading (if they are reading what I write)

I'm wondering if people sign on and hate it when one person responds to '3 random facts' over and over

[Sirius]

I'm reading you.

I kind of like it when someone goes random fact crazy and it appears they are talking to theirself.

Theirself? Themself? Hm....

[freckledcutie]

hmmm...if I was saying it that would be "myself"

I hated the couple of years I had to teach English

That's why I rebel against it now (recently, I forgot how to spell)

[medeous]

1. i was reading, too.
2. i like it, too.
3. hi kelly and rustell.

[Sirius]

I wonder why freckledcutie didn't buy the dvd...and then tell her daughter, "well, see, you can't go to florida, because that trip only last a week, and I can get years of nejoyment out of this dvd.....


I'm excited about next weekend.

I wonder how much longer I should wait for cheese monkey straglers, as the deadline was jan 30th....

1. inspired by chunkymonkey, i joined flylady's mailing list, too.

I wanted to cuss out flylady on a daily basis and quickly unsubscribed myself

3. she won't try new foods, either.

[Sirius]

I assisted with a slumber party friday night that had sixteen ten and eleven year olds. I spent the evening doing emotional triage as they would randomly burst into sobbing fits because someone looked at them wrong.

It is in my nature to want to fix such things and solve the problem.

Until my patience runs out and I want to just call them big babies and tell them to get over it. I was quite proud I didn't let me get to that point.

[Sirius]

i think bill and ted is a highly quotable movie. (see medeouses sig line for example)

i named a fish so-crates once.

the mall scenes from the movie were filmed at a mall in phoenix

[Sirius]

i have had three nervousers volunteer to ship me their children now, perhaps I should start a collection.

then again, perhaps not, the cat wouldn't like it.

i think i might be done nw....

[freckledcutie]

This weekend I have almost done everything on my "TO DO" list...I never used "to do" lists, but I'm so loving them because they work...it's actually a "to do" journal

I got together and packaged 2 prizes for a couple of friends of mine (that played a guessing game I had), finished and packaged an altered tin, made 3 postcards, and 1 ATC...finished a circle journal and mailed it on it's way to a friend in a circle journal group I belong to

I also received a most incredible altered book on Friday and I am preparing to work in that (it was sent to me 5 months late and I was beginning to think my friend was not telling the truth about mailing it...I still don't know if she told the truth or not...she claimed it was kept in holding for a month due to CA fires and then returned to her and she remailed it and it was returned again...hmmmm...I'm not buying it)

[freckledcutie]

Oh and another friend mailed a circle journal to me weeks ago but it never arrived...she's always prompt with them every month...she's been so upset that this one was lost

well, a second friend in Toledo said it turned up at her house this weekend

It had been repackaged by my friend in Chicago but it was in a box from Tower Records that was addressed to my friend in Toledo (she had used the box to mail to my friend in Chicago)...well, it was returned to Tower Records who hung on to it and then decided to send it back to my friend in Toledo

[Jennyblue]

My other accidently drove acar over my leg when I was 2 and fell out of the car. I had so much baby fat that all I have is a tire mark on my inner right thigh to this day. My mother, however, is still recovering from the horror of having "run over her child".......... It's true and odd, I know. :huh:

My tongue has a horrible taste from licking envelopes the last 30 minutes.

1. I don't lick envies. I kinda wet my finger and do it that way. gross maybe but...

2. I once read this chain email, and yes I realize it's immpossible, but it really got to me. It was a story about a woman who had this terrible swelling of the tongue. The doctor's tried all sorts of meds but ended up having to perform surgery to see what was going on. As the doctor slices her tongue open with a scapel a cockroach crawls out. Seems she had a paper cut from licking envelopes and the glue was contaminated with roach eggs. Of course it's insane but the part about glue being super icky isn't. Anyway I'd lick my finger over funky glue any day.

3. and gusess who shows up? :wub:

Flylady is the queen of declutterization and organization.

I have this habit of typing "q's" for "g's" and visa versa, so I wrote "quiltily" above.

I once told my mom that a guy I was bringing home for dinner didn't eat meat or vegetables because he didn't know for sure that plants didn't feel pain. She asked what in the world he ate and I said he only takes vitamins. She was very relieved when I told her I was joking.

I listed Dean Cain as my crush in the celebrity crush thread and lo and behold the Laci Peterson movie he's in was on TONIGHT.

Every night I go to bed, set my alarm for 7 and swear that I am going to get up and do my treadmill. And every morning I hit snooze until I hear Megan playing and talking in her crib.
