Three random facts:

[yardenxanthe]

1. I just got done making a hat for brunahildm
2. I used shiny fabric but my sewing machine didn't mind (which is weird because it gave me LOTS of trouble last time I used weird fabric
3. My mom bought me some herbs to plant while she was here... now I just need a big pot to put them in.

[chunkymonkey]

1. I think my favorite ben and jerry's flavor is self explanitory. :)

2. I'm jealous of grace's hippie childhood. If I could have chosen my childhood that would have been it.

3. I was sick earlier, I ate a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and now I'm not. (I'm already horrified about what the scale might say to me tomorrow so I decided to not weigh myself for awhile and just go with how I feel and the changes I see. I think I know my body well enough.)

[Cuilanië]

- Gwensmom has an avatar! Yay!! :yay:

- I feel for Dalmaney's confusing situation... I think the most important thing is knowing what you want. Then you can deal with events as they come instead of worrying in advance.

- Half the tip of my right thumb is tingling and numb. It's been that way since around 7 this morning, and no matter what I do, it's not getting better. O'course, using it to type isn't helping much...

[chunkymonkey]

1. I wish there was a hide objects hosted on our lmao pages just like there is for objects we participate in. I like to be neat and tidy but I don't want to delete stuff.

2. And 100-some sundays later the story continues. Finally!

3. I spy something blue.

[Cuilanië]

- I just read kittymao's signature as "it would be nice if MONKEYS grew on trees"... :blink: :o

- It ain't over folks, don't relax your guards... :ph34r:

- I've vacuumed my apartment and washed the kitchen floor. Is good... ^_^

[Dalmaney]

1. I have officially hit the gossip circuit of my friends... I'm not sure how I feel about the cracks about my "chauffeur".

2. I spent the afternoon drinking coffee at a bookstore listening to my friend's band play. I love his music sooo much and haven't heard him play in a very long time.

3. I think I know what I want... and I think I mostly need some patience and time.

[bluecrayon]

I have a grant I am supposed to be working on. The deadline is Tuesday.

I am spinning around the nervous neighborhood instead, catching up with Dalmaney and Cuilanie and Chunkymonkey and everyone else...

I am procrastinating big time and probably need to eat some chocolate!

[AlienSpy]

1. My latest craving : greek food! A vegetarian pita, potatoes with lots of garlic and a green salad + tzatziki sauce, yum!!! I'm hungry.

2. There's been a party in my belly all day! The baby is kicking like crazy - I think he's going to be a soccer player. I love it! :)

3. Nicolas just called me and guess what he'll do on his way back from work? Bring me some greek food!!! Yay!

[Bugitha]

1. I watched the whole cheese monkey spectacle from the sidelines and found it amusing, but today I had reason to talk about it. I was on the phone with a friend and we were talking about cheese and how pretty much anything with cheese on it is good. Then she said, "Its like my monkey theory. . . anything with a monkey in it is funny." And I busted up laughing because I guess cheese and monkeys really do go together.

2. I have jumped on the knitting bandwagon.

3. Said bandwagon is full of yarn.

[kristin102503]

bandwagon full of yarn?

1) have a closet full of yarn

2) I have drawers full of knitting and crochet patterns

3) I have a husband who deals with my yarn addiction quite well. :P

[chunkymonkey]

I'm bored and directionless at the moment.

I shock myself sometimes with my squealing singing voice

I need to start seeing a shrink again... but no because of my singing :P

[Lilac]

My twin sister is an art teacher and exremely talented in that area. She puts me to shame. Well, actually...I think a chimpanzee would probably put me to shame when it came to art.

But I AM really good at math and science...not that that's going to help. I want to be able to create something special to send to Robyn for Harrison's fundraiser...and I just can't figure out what to do. Any ideas?

I started my period today and bled through my pants. How lovely is THAT.

[gwensmom]

Ooooh go post that in the period thread! And oxyclean will get blood out of pants. that's about all it's good for, though.

Gwen's babysitter didn't show up and didn't call :angry:

When I called her she said she left a message earlier today.

there is no message from her on my machine. Starting tomorrow I'm looking for a new babysitter. :spank:

[Lilac]

I love Gwensmom's cute little "smiley beating smiley!" How'd you get that on here???

Thanks for the Oxyclean tip!

This ISNT the first time I bled through my pants! Last summer, of course while wearing LIGHT COLORED pants...I went to 1) the Humane Society 2) Panera Bread 3) the Bank and 4) to the video store all the while sporting a lovely RED PERIOD STAIN@!!!! Damn.

[gwensmom]

I love Gwensmom's cute little "smiley beating smiley!" How'd you get that on here???
James put in some new emoticons. Click on "show all" at the bottom of the smiley box and scroll down to see all the new ones.

This one is good: :poke:

And this: :rock:

and this: :violin:

[Lilac]

:yell: :spank: :kiss: :'( :'( :birthday: :wave: :yay: :ill: :eek: :canada: coffee :confused: :thewave: :peace: :poke: :rofl: :violin:


I found them!

[Dalmaney]

1. I have made our design project file almost presentable. I redid our time sheet, found a page protector thingy for our proposal report, printed a bunch of emails, and organized what we had.

2. I neither confirm nor deny people's assumptions about me and... hmmm... I need an internet code name for 'im... my Chauffeur. That'll do. He is also silent on the subject.

3. I'm watching Bowling for Columbine again right now, but I should really go to bed.

[medeous]

kristin102503's avatar is ubercute.
i want to hold that puppy.
i like the way puppies smell, even if it is because they pee on themselves.

[Lilac]

I LOVE the smell of puppy breath, Medeous.

I also love the smell of a freshly run horse.

..and the smell of my son's head...kind of egg-ish.

ahhh yes... but were YOU in toronto the night he was on open mike with mike bullard???? i kept my eyes peeled all week!!!!!!! chris was getting a little jealous i think... ;)

1: there are still no ads in the paper for church/school sales.... i think this is a sign that i should set my sights higher, pay the larger fee for a table, and go in a bigger sale than we planned....

2: we will have enough stuff to do it i bet!!! wow to all who are helping us out here!!! :wub:

3: i didn't get to see freckledcutie's bamboo necklaces, the image is gone!!! :o i guess i'll get to see them soon though!!! :) thanks everyone!!!!!

[nymphette]

i just read through the past week and a bit's worth of 3 random facts.... whew!!!!

:canada: what is this little guy?????

i should be in bed.... but i wasn't tired and i have so much catching up to do on here and there and everywhere computer related.. not to mention a week away from all my projects!!! :o gotta get in gear and finish some more stuff for the sale!!!!

[kittymao]

y'all rememeber when I said I was nearly halfway done with my report? Well. I just finished. You gotta love midterms. *keels over*

I am tired. And to think I'm getting up in... four hours. Oops.

And then to do more homework. Yeech. At least spring break's next week.

ganite.

[littlest-bee]

. I got verrrrrry drunk on Saturday night and had to be taken home. I cried the whole time we were on the tube because I felt sick and I wanted to not be drunk anymore!

.. my boyfriend (who was the lovely person who took me home) doesn't drink and I was also upset because I thought he would be disapproving of my drunken behaviour. He wasn't though, he thought it was funny and he was very sweet about the whole thing.

... I got a mean spinny hangover and spent Sunday in bed being grey and shakey. :wacko:

[timeittook]

-i feel like i'm hung over even though i haven't drank in a while. i don't think i slept well last night due to thunderstorms making noise outside.
-today is the first "official" day of spring break for me and i'm happy. i slept until 7 and that made me smile knowing that i didn't have to get out of bed until 9.
-i don't feel good! and i got phyical therapy at 10:30. blah. i guess i'll shower now.

[Dalmaney]

1. I got up at the same time I always do, but I'm ten minutes ahead of schedule.

2. I plan to spend this afternoon doing a lab report from last week so I can be finished before our panicked design report write-off takes the rest of the week.

3. Only 22 class days left before finals. I am officially scared.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i banged my head on the bed's headboard last night whilst reading in mum's room

2. it didn't really "hurt", but it was quite a nasty surprise

3. i dreamed that there were aliens wanting to abduct me! gah! this was especially wierd since i thought to myself before i went to sleep, 'now i bet that knock on the head will make me dream about wierd things, like aliens.'
For whatever reason though, the aliens weren't succeeding in abducting me. Wierd.

[bluecrayon]

I am tired.
I miss him.
I have a long work day today...

sigh.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i have an appointment with a career counsellor at 2pm

2 she asked me to bring whatever 'career planning' work i could find from what i kept from highschool... aptitude tests and interests tests and such... BUT i can only find a very little of that stuff although i know i did tons of it... grrrh (i've looked for it before now, i've been trying to make this appointment for over a month)

3 i would like to at least be able to find the course outline from "career planning" (yes i really did take a course by that name in grade 12)

[littlest-bee]

. I want coff-ee
.. I miss my boy
... My boy rang me this morning just to say hi. How cute is that?!

[nymphette]

1: i watched way too much t.v. while in toronto... i know this because:

2: last night i dreamed i was a part of a reality tv program, that was a cross between survivor (taking place in eaton's centre in toronto) and american idol... i sang 'thank god i'm a country boy' as my try out song... :P and i was trying to sing along with one of the (lesser known???:o:P) baby einstein programs that had the song on it- 'baby glycerin'.... simon and randy both bashed me and paula wouldn't even talk!!! and then i was standing in line at a bank, and i was naked, and wiating for hte cashiers to open and they were all little old ladies selling craft stuff 2 for a dollar.... oh my god!!!! i had cheddar rice crackers before bed.. i should have ate sausages or something spicy, it wouldn't have been as weird a dream!!!!! :D good lord!!!

3: i am making falafel for lunch.... and julian wants lime jello to go with it... not my side dish of choice, but hey... what can you do... :P

[Curlita]

1. I don't really like the way my dog smells, but I let him kiss me anyway.

2. I like the way my kitties' fur smells, especially when they have been laying in the sun. Frieda is indoor only and have velvety fur. Lucy is indoor-outdoor and has silky fur. They both smell different.

3. My cats do not particularly like it when I bury my face in their stomach/hip/shoulder/whatever and inhale deeply. They get rather annoyed, in fact.

[Curlita]

1. I wish I were having HEALTHY food cravings like Julie, instead of onion-ring-greasy-burger cravings.

2. I wish I could go to Robyn's house for lunch because falafel and lime Jello sound like a perfect combination to me.

3. I need to get dressed and go walk the dog so I feel like I am making productive use of my time. I have being a slave to productivity. I wonder if it is my culture or my personality that make me so dang anal-retentive.

[Lilac]

I'm taking a break from working and there's no one on here playing right now! :'(

I need to go to the print shop and have a blueprint remade because I spilled some coffee on it this morning!!!!!! :yell:

I stayed up till almost 2 Am last night reading a book I got as part of a bookcrossing bookring.

[nymphette]

1: i made green apple jello and mango jello as well (for me) becuase the lime jello is MIA!~!!! i think maybe chris or i put it back because neither of us likes lime and we have green apple, which is green, same as lime.. julian thinks it is just fine, but i didn't fool him into thinking it is lime... he's too smart for his own good now!!!!

2: i have been mega dizzy and nauseous since the day we left toronto.. the plane ride was hell, i felt so sick and dizzy and nauseous, and i was overheating because stupid me wore a peasant blouse instead of the usual tank top that is my uniform.... and since we got home i have been run down feeling, and having horrible headaches, and been dizzy and nauseous.... i was dizzy the week before we left, but nothing like this!!!

3: i totally forgot, until we were in the hospital at toronto, about the whole SARS scare thing there!!!!:O we are all fine though, so far, so i guess it's alll good....

4: bonus: i think i spelled nauseous wrong.. it looks wrong... nauseated would have been the right word anyhow and is easier to spell... however, i would rather add this information in another fact than go back and change my misspelled word.... ;)

[sarahkate]

1. I'm feeling out of sorts. This is not a good day.

2. I thought maybe Spring had arrived here in Upstate NY because last week almost all of the snow melted and we had temps in the 50s (F) a few days. This morning I woke up to see everything coated in a few inches of snow again. <_<

3. I like gwensmom's new avatar! :)

[freckledcutie]

Sarahkate...I hope you feel in sorts soon...is there anything I can do? I could call you and tell you a joke or something, but that might make it worse

I'm glad that Nymphette couldn't see my necklaces because I want them to be a surprise...maybe you'll get them today

I have a headache

We're having chicken n dumplings for lunch in the cafeteria and I love their c n d...People have told me that I make the best ( they're yummy), but I still love the ones the ladies here make

[nymphette]

1: i like gwensmom's avatar too.. :P

2: i have been singing 'thank god i'm a country boy' all morning... the kids think i am good.. i think dream randy and dream simon just have no taste at all... <_< harrison is particularily impressed with my 'yeeehaaaah' at the end....

3: i'm freezing cold right now!!!!

[sarahkate]

1. Awww thanks Kelly! You are sweet! (and I am sure your jokes wouldn't make it worse :P) I don't know what's wrong with me...I'm just in one of those sad, dreary moods. I'm guessing it's mostly caused by this crappy weather, and the fact that it's Monday, another work day. Yuck.

2. I just ate some chocolate though, and I'm actually feeling a little bit better already. Chocolate is a miracle drug. :)

3. I actually exercised yesterday! I told my boyfriend that he had to MAKE me use our Total Gym this past weekend, so yesterday he forced me to, and I'm glad because I wouldn't have done it otherwise. Now my muscles near my chest & armpits HURT! Ouch.

[medeous]

1. we're having a family fun night at school this evening. re-enactors are coming in and doing stuff.

2. because of #1, i am dressed like a demented holly hobby.

3. when the kids ask me about my outfit, i tell them i've had a make-over.

[freckledcutie]

I loved Holly Hobby

She was my best friend...I was a HH paper doll freak

The thought of her having a demented side is scary

[freckledcutie]

Robyn, I can still see the pics...hmmm...I wonder if your puter wouldn't view em of it their host place was down or something

My headache is still around...even after the wonderful chicken and dumplings

I went to the PO and mailed off fun stuff and bought the new Dr. Seuss stamps

[siafu]

i am dreading today. doing nothing isn't helping.

i just got a good phone call.

i don't know what to wear.

:eek:

[Lilac]

Okay...I ahve to get off the computer and go get those blueprints.

I wonder what I should eat for lunch? I'd love to devour like 5 or 6 peanut butter no-bake cookies...but that is out of the question. :(

I'll probably just stop at Panera bread and have an asiago cheese bagel.

Bye!

[chunkymonkey]

2. I thought maybe Spring had arrived here in Upstate NY because last week almost all of the snow melted and we had temps in the 50s (F) a few days. This morning I woke up to see everything coated in a few inches of snow again.


1. ditto. (except it's more slushy snow down here. But still URGH!!)

2. I don't feel like moving an inch and I have so much to attend to.

3. I rode down a mud slide on a little tackle box in a dream I had last night and it was FUN.

[nymphette]

1: the canadian weekly comedy series 'corner gas' is filmed right in my old home town of rouleau saskatchewan... i finally saw an episode when we were in toronto...

2: i recognized a lot of the houses they filmed, in and out... plus the bar... though the gas station and restaurant were built sets just for the show...

3: i watched intently to see if i knew any of the extras... ;)

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

i painted a really big canvas on the weekend 60"x32"!!!! And the paint is smelly.... especially since winter snuck back and the window must remain closed i order to maintain warmth. I really like what i did though.... i still have a little more to do but since oils take forever to dry i figure i can wait.

i bought origami paper and i can't make a DARN THING the instructions are all in korean...... i speak english, i read english... and that's about it.
i should learn korean so i can make a paper crane.

i coloured my hair too, it's all red and purple and yellow...... i think it's kinda boring.

[Sirius]

1. It is 92 degrees. I had my heat on last week and my air conditioning today.

2. No, you didn't really let that sink in, did you....it is 92 degrees.

[siafu]

i am wearing some jeans that have velour embossing and a mickey mouse sweatshirt.

i am going to go clean the living room.

i would like a nap.

xoxoxo

[sarahkate]

1. I'm jealous of Sirius.

2. I wonder if, in general, people who live in warmer climates are happier, more easy going, and less depressed than people who have to live in frigid temps....like here in ever-so-lovely upstate NY.

3. I have always wondered if stores in places such as Arizona, sell winter coats & other cold weather attire?

[chunkymonkey]

1. rustell you can shove your sunny skies up your... haha just kidding. :kiss:

2. I'd be happy with that weather for a few days and then I'd be wishing for snow.

3. This is one messy messy room. :ph34r:

[Cuilanië]

- Wonderfully sunny here today, the sun was actually warm...

- The wind was rather chill, though.

- 11

[medeous]

1. i don't know what the weather is like, as i'm not allowed to leave the building lest they have an art emergency and suffer a creative calamity due to my absence. :blink:
2. i got a letter from D_o_A :D
3. i like peeling dried glue off my fingers

[siafu]

i don't know what culainie's counting down to.

me, too -- but I don't think it's in my future...

I'm not sure what I would drop anyway...

[bluecrayon]

It is over 70 degrees today

this kind of weather gives me a restless heart...

I have to go back into the classroom in a few minute; what I really want to do is just spin around and smile...

[siafu]

i mean...that i could and did :lol:

time for me to deal with the rubbish in the kitchen.
maybe i'll drink another diet coke.
i'll be bummed if i drink them all in one day.

[Dalmaney]

1. How to fold a paper crane (http://www.sadako.com/howtofold.html) (in English). I went through a crane-making phase a little while ago.

2. Tonight I need to finish previously mentioned lab report and watch a video about the American military.

3. I want to go dance in the slush instead.

Are you cleaning on your honeymoon?

Do you have a paying job outside of the house?

I don't think I could ever be bored if I stayed at home and no longer had to work.

[siafu]

we are having company, so i have to clean. mrs. spouse's cousin and his partner of 22 years are coming here to get married.

i just graduated from law school. i don't have a job yet, but i do have an interview tomorrow.

i wouldn't be bored either. i would especially get pregnant.

I want to know about the re-enactors that are coming to Medeous's school. The only kid of re-enactment we have around here is civil war battles.

The baby I made the blanket for came two weeks early at 4:56 this morning. I finished that blanket just in time!

[nymphette]

1: anyone having a baby two weeks early makes me wistful.. i was overdue on both my boys!!! :o

2: i really (and i mean REALLY) enjoyed being pregnant... i was in my best health and happiness while i was pregnant, even with julian and all the different problems i had....

3: with me: problem pregnancy= perfectly healthy child.... textbook pregnancy= scary months in NICU and metabolic disorder... you just never know what will happen... that's why i say that you need to enjoy everything as it happens!!!!!!!! both of my boys are worth every minute of worry i ever had, pre or post delivery... :wub:

4: although, one of us (julian and i) are NOT going to make it through the trying threes... and i am bigger than he is, so that will give you a clue s to who's going to survive...... :spank: :eek: :'(

Ummm, you aren't PREGNANT are you?!? I hear it's been going around. :P Seriously, hope you feel better, Robyn.

I just got back from a lovely lunch with a tasty salad. It had swiss cheese and lots of other yummy things on it, and reminded me of the salads I ate while we were in Paris.

Now I'm going to go craft (if I don't fall asleep on my glue stick...)

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i emailed a college, a university, and the District office of Girl Guides today.

2. I got two PIFs I'd claimed.

3. I got treated to New York Fries and tim hortons french vanilla.

[kittymao]

It's nice out here in the City. Me, MeiMei and Jason had lunch in Union Square- soaking up the sun and conversing about all sorts of things. A touch too warm, but better than being too cold, personally.

I so want to do nervousness work, but have to paint tomorrow, and I fear it will take most of my day. Maybe I can sneak in some ATCs. That would be nice.

Oh, and books too. I need to make some books. for The Sale. Hee, now I can use that in proper context, with the Purple and everything!

[siafu]

i know nothing. what sale? what is culainie counting down

i need a sign.

i need tape for the sign.

2: i made hummous to have with supper... i am making grilled chicken caesar salads, but i think i want mine rolled in a pita with hummous... mmm..... julian loves it when imake hummous becuase i let him press the button on the food processor... :P

3: ten thousand phone calls today.. thank goodness all the government agencies (public health, sask health, etc) close at 430, so i have a respite until tomorrow!!!!!

[Cuilanië]

For Theresa...

- The sale is Robyn's participation in a craft fair to raise money - lots of people are donating postcards and stuff (see gwensmom's signature)

- The answer will come at the end of the countdown... :ph34r:

- I'm so glad you're happy!!!

LOL! It is a relief when stuff is closed so you have an excuse not to make phone calls.

I have several I have been putting off

Well, now I am going crazy wondering what Cuilanie is counting down to. It must be something wonderful!

extra:
a nice church lady came over and brought us some dinner. Thank heavens she called an hour before she came so we could clean up a little!

3: julian has had four time outs in his room today.... <sigh> spending a week with aunty jodi has left him questioning basically everything i say... 'why?'.... and saying 'no' when i ask him to do something..... argh!!! so i finally said 'if you do not listen, you will have time to yourself in your bedroom.'.. he's in there right now... and i take a time out when he's in there too... and just regroup from being frustrated... pretty bad mommy i am- i get frustrated because he's finally acting his age, instead of a very grown up mature littl e man inside a three year old's body.... :tearing hair out smilie:

**sigh** the internet just isn't as cool anymore without my old favorites like swanky.org, ohhello.com, scribble.nu, even halfempty.com is not the same anymore........my internet glory days are pretty well gone. well at least presstube.com is still around...... just tell me whatever happened to the swank army?

this oil painting is smelly, oil paint is smelly. i like it but i am getting sick of it...... smelly

sometimes i want to cry without reason

[lilfrank08]

This is cool!

1. I have 8 cats

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

i want to do some good for robyn and harrison, i offered up a apinting but i don't know if that's a good idea..... i mean it is and it's not..... i don't know, what do you all think? (i'll be sending it anyway because)

i am feeling so unsure about myself right htis moment.... that probably explains the whole painting donation dilema, i am making an issue out of a non issue.

seriously though will a painting be any good for the sale or should i just stick to postcards and such?

[freckledcutie]

painting good

holly rocks

holly good

I loved Holly Hobby

She was my best friend...I was a HH paper doll freak



I also loved holly hobby.

My friend was such a fan that she once bewildered her mother by asking her to buy her the Bible she saw in a bookstore. Turns out she misread "Holy" as in Bible as "Holly" as in Hobby, and thought it was a book about her.

I still have a Holly Hobbie's Nursery Rhymes book I've had since I was about five.

I never thought to ask this question! Maybe I should have -- I just knocked off 2 smallish paintings that are kind of child oriented (for a kid's room, I'm thinking) and am just about to send them out. They are a dog pair and go together...

Nymphette, if you are around, let us know!

It's too darn balmy here and I want to go skinny dipping!

[kittymao]

werd, CB! However, it's cooling off now that it's getting dark, but... oh, does it feel like summer. I want to prowl the streets and get into trouble.

Since that fabled report on the Misfits I have been fighting the desire to becme dark and morbidly goofy. Only becuase I can't do that during Midterms. Just wait until spring break...

40 minutes till class. I thouhgt class would never come! I'd rather be making books.

*bonus* Do you want a book? go see my page.

Gwensmom having an avatar confuses me....

I had a "fashion emegency" today and ended up wearing a binder clip for a couple of hours. How can a community center not have a safety pin?

I feel like I need to brush my teeth. i think I will.

Oooh is that the same as a "wardrobe malfunction"?

Since Eve won't tell about her countdown I will start one of my own. Today was day 1 of spring break so there are 7 more days until Gwens school starts back!

[siafu]

oh see. as long as i know that i'm not supposed to know, i'm good with that.

i should be on the other computer practicing my typing.

i made dinner. i'm going to be so embarrassed if it sucks.

:blink:

[bluecrayon]

does Gwensmom know I think she must be Freckledcutie's sister???

I mean, this avatar of hers directs my thoughts that way!

I am too shy to put my face into the mix...

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

people used to call me holly hobby

holly hobby is cooler than i am

i want a book.... how can i get a book?

[bluecrayon]

Wonkywalkingshoe -- I bought all the ingredients today to bake you a cake.

I am smiling at this...

Is D_O_A coming back to nness???

[nymphette]

1: my mom has painted two small canvases for the sale - one is a picture of two horses, and the other an asian floral still life.... so i think that anything goes- any theme, any medium, and kind of art, craft, handmade goodness!!!

2: i got freckledcutie's necklaces today, they are so gorgeous!!! wow, i have to buy one for myself!!! anyone who hasn't seen them, take a look at the picture earlier on in this thread... which i still can't see... but it's all good, i got 'em right here to oooh and aaah over!!!

3: chris bought a cheapie digital camera, pretty well only good to uplink pics online... which is all i wanted one for!!! so pictures will be coming, i think i'll take pictures of all the stuff we have made already, samples at least... and all the goodies sent to us!!!

4: bonus: my aunt and uncle want to put on a fundraising 'family dance' in qu'appelle, the town my mom lives in- they play guitar/bass and sing together, they used to tour sask and alberta... my uncle has actually sold songs that he's written to some country nashville star of some sort... i can't for the life of me remember what song it is though.. :( bad niece... anyhow, dance, live entertainment, raising money for us!!! yay!!! what a family i have... and all you wonderful online friends... and, credit where it is due, to leslie, one of my old friends that i dont' really hang around with a lot- she's the one who's organizing the steak night!!! :wub:

[bluecrayon]

aw, nymphette! I marvel at your spirit.

I complain about little things in my life...

You remind me of the larger world...

You can go to the library, or the bookstore. You can hope that some random bookcrosser (http://www.bookcrossing.com) just happened to leave one where you might find it (join bookcrossing: make the whole world a library of serendipity!), you can post random book cravings on a strange, randomly kind place like nervousness and see if someone sends you one, or you can bind (and for that matter, write) your own.

1. It has been hot here today.

2. I forgot to do most of the things I was supposed to do this morning.

3. I got my new speakers today, via UPS, but for some reason I'm not that enthusiastic about plugging them in and trying them out.

[hammerquill]

I've been in a strange mood all this evening.

It's getting a little better now, though.

I figure I'll probably be ready to try those speakers out by the time it's late enough I won't want to disturb the neighbors... :rolleyes:

[bluecrayon]

I have inhabited strange all day

I am strange down to my toes...

I wonder what it feels like to not be strange...

[Dalmaney]

1. I'm coming to know how I feel, if not what I want.

2. I just turned down an invitation from the Chauffeur to hang with some of his friends I don't know and have wings (again... I went once over the break... honestly, because I was super-bored and it was better than being home alone).

3. This implies I should actually sleep now, as that was my reason for not going out. I hate that I need so much sleep.

[Larrissa]

hmmm. will anyone notice this is gone? i do doubt it.

[Sirius]

I had a "fashion emergency" today


Oooh is that the same as a "wardrobe malfunction"?

yep. one and the same


or is it one in the same?

[Sirius]

I do not smoke pot, however, I did read this as "cockroaches can turn tricks when headless." instead of "cockroaches can learn tricks when headless."

[siafu]

what book do you want, wonky?

[Larrissa]

[Lilac]

I am up WAAAY past my bedtime.

I'm going to go brush my teeth and turn in.

Goodnight.

[siafu]

dinner didn't suck.

my feet are swollen.

i don't know how to ask someonee to be the father of my baby. it seems like a non sequitur.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

the hitchiker's guide to the galaxy is a book i am craving right now..... that and pretty much anything by tom robbins.... that and anything that is on someone's mandatory reading for living: mine include hitchhiker's guide, electric-acid kool-aid test, conversations with god, the art of happiness, the great gatsby, catch-22, brave new world, hamlet, and are you there god it's me margret? to name a few. i am a bookaholic.

i have a cheese monkey book to read but that will be devoured by week's end.

mmmm devoured.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

doa will be back as soon as she can get her internet back up and running.

this talk reminds me of the movie fear and loathing when the speaker at the drug convention is talking about how druggies progress from square to cool to hip and happening and how "a roach beacuse it resemles a cockroach" it's a brilliant speech, as is the following anti-drug film

[kittymao]

weird Bart Ride. I saw Josh.
Josh and I were best friends in HighSchool but departed ways due to his wicked girlfriend ( who I understand is ACTUALLY turning tricks. She may as well be a cockroach.) I haven't spoken to Josh in about four years. We talked for about a minute, babbling and quipping as if nothing ever changed. Then parted ways.

Maybe someday, with planning and work, Josh and I can be friends again. There's no sense of dislike between us- our lives just took different directions.

I should go to bed. Yeppers. And Wonky- I have exchanges set up at my page for handmade books.

[stargal1998]

1. I'm published (http://www.bookslut.com/fiction/2004_03_001683.php).

2. I felt terrible yesterday, and with good reason because I finally found out late yesterday afternoon that they found Spaulding Gray.

3. I didn't feel like posting yesterday, but got 2 seuss envies and a surprise from the thrift store.

How cool! Sounds like a good book too.

. I ordered some pink shoes today
.. I haven't had any mail since Friday
... I'm having dinner with my grandparents tonight

[thunderstorm_19]

1 my latest inspiration is a mosaic project i want to do.
(to this end, if any of you break a plate, don't throw it out, contact me first!) i'll be in special need of blue, orange/yellow, pink/peach, silver/gold.

2 i am happy that my new yahoo groups are growing (gradually).

3 i am going NUTS waiting for garage sale season. i love garage sales. especially the cheap books! and the craft-able goodies...

1. Congratulations! That's so cool!! :thewave:

2. I tried altering an AOL tin last night for the first time ever. So far it looks like crap.

3. I have to work on a mini handmade book that was sent to me as part of an LMAO. It's completely blank and I can fill it with whatever I want, but I am drawing a blank now. I can't think of anything! I wish I was a good writer, so I could fill it with a little story or poetry.

2. I painted it Sunday night, but did the pasting and such last night. The front rocks, the back sucks.

3. Now I want pink shoes!

1. Wow! This is like the Twilight Zone!! Spoooooky!!

2. For my tin I just slapped some decoupage glue on the tin & put some pieces of cut up magazine pages on it. I didn't really know what the hell I was doing. It looks horrendous, but maybe I can work on it some more and make it presentable.

3. Lately I have been thinking about trying to make some bookmarks. There are so many art/craft things that I have never done that I suddenly really want to try out.

[stargal1998]

1. My process was similar. I just need to sand the bottom half of the case and maybe cover it differently.

2. I use those paint swatch samples to make bookmarks, along with cool paper, decals, a punch and ribbon--totally girlie...

3. I was just given an exclusive invite to place some of my scarves in an open house... The end of april... Yay!

[bluecrayon]

walked outside to put some stuff into the trunk of my car this early morning and...

said car was not where I left it...

said car appears to have caught someone else's fancy and left me...

:o OH NO!!!!!!!! Poor cb!! I hope they will catch whoever took your car! That's horrible. :angry:

[thunderstorm_19]

1 poor cb!! *hugs*

2 in the last... oh, hour or so, 4 people have joined the yahoo group i started 2 days ago!

3 i need lunch!

[nymphette]

1: hugs to blue..... i can't imagine the feeling of walking out and my car being gone!!!:O wah!!!!! i'm so sorry... are the police doing anything????

2: i was crying today- tears of happiness- which really confused the heck out of julian... reason why- harrison ate 1/2 a tsp of baby cereal, without gagging!!!!!!! i havent tried him on food for a while because we've been doing therapy for gag destim. and haven't wanted to give him negative associations with food... but i bit the bullet and tried oatmeal nestle baby cereal today.. and he had about nine tiny mouthfuls.. and swallowed them all!!!! and didn't gag until the last bite and that was when i stopped.. even better, he was opeining his mouth for the food!!!!

3: i am crying agian... :) yes i am a ninny...

[sarahkate]

1. Awww! That's so great Robyn!! :D Yay for Harrison! :thewave:

2. Speaking of that little cutie boy, I loved Harrison's pic that Robyn sent to Rustell for the Cheese Monkey pictures! Ha! Too cute!! :wub:

3. I should stay out of the heated, controversial threads here on N'ness because I open my mouth and say things that don't come out as I intend. I think I always sound like I don't know what I'm talking about and I don't like thinking that I might offend people.

[nymphette]

1: i think your post (if it is the one you are talking about) is clear and to the point and NOT offensive, SK.... but i am one of those people who thinks that when someone states their opinion, even if it differs from mine or the general consensus (which i am not saying it doesn, just in general as a fact i mean) it doesn't mean it is a personal attack on anyone...

2: i stay away from political and religious discussions for the most part because i don't feel i am up to date on politics enough to make my opinion clear and coherent- and religious 'debates' always end up in arguments and bad feelings!!! but sometimes... i just can't keep my mouth shut... ;)

3: chicken veggie soup for lunch... mmm.. early lunch, cup of soup and i'll be back!!! gotta get my computer time where i can.. it's pretty scarce lately!!!!!! :o

4: and i know you all miss me... <_< right??? :huh: maybe a bit, someitmes??? :unsure:

1. I'm glad you understood it and weren't offended! :) That makes me feel better. I just hope other people are as open minded about it as you! And if not, I guess that's more their problem than mine. (though it will still bother me!)

2. Mmm...veggie soup sounds good. I'm having Wheat Thins for lunch as we speak! What do you say I come up to Canada for lunch Robyn? I will share my crackers if you share some soup. :P

3. And of course we will miss you while you are gone! We need to get you a laptop so you can just carry it around the house with you!

[thunderstorm_19]

i angrily hung up on someone. i feel guilty, but oddly satisfied.

went to kitchen and made tea. noticed dull rainy-looking clouds, and thought 'i wouldn't be surprised if we got some rain', and just then it started to snow.

i don't feel like i've sent enough mail in the last month...

[kittymao]

damnit. I wanted to sleep in. It's only 10. that's kind of sleeping in, but I really didn't wan to get up until noon.

It was those handmade books, man. They're calling my name.

I need to paint too, but I'm not really looking forward to it. Probably cause I think Tenniel did awesome illustrations for Alice and re-doing them makes me feel weird.

[Cuilanië]

:( cb that's horrible... Hope nothing precious to you was inside!

:D :yay: Yay Robyn!!

:ph34r: 10

[Cuilanië]

- I was crying today too - tears of frustration - my boss just doesn't know what she wants... either I take too much time to think about my work (to, you know, do a good job?), or I went too fast and made mistakes... then there's the overtime issue - she tells me she doesn't want me to do overtime (cuz she can't pay for it...) but I should somehow find time to do everything within normal working hours when she's a control freak who needs to vet everything before it goes out, changes things constantly, and completely underestimates the time things take...

- sorry 'bout the rant, people... I just had to get that out of my system.

- She made me so angry I spent the last few hours of the afternoon stomping around wanting to kick things. I didn't kick anything, but I hurt my ankle.

[Cuilanië]

- My roommate is listening to a mix of old Madonna songs.

- That would be funnier if he didn't listen to Madonna All The Time...

- Still, it reminds me of my early teenage years...

[bluecrayon]

Attachment to material things just sets one up for disappointment...

my car was a clunker from the start...

I don't really miss it -- it's just annoying as heck having to deal with the insurance and the police reports and all that stuff....

I'm thinking of this as one of those random and arbitrary "taxes" we have to pay to live... :)

[bluecrayon]

Counting down with Cuilanie! (kind of like numbers, numbers only with a more interesting ending!)

Rooting for Robyn -- sending my dog paintings off today.

About to go lay on the floor for awhile and feel the sun.

[stargal1998]

1. I'm all depressed now. Someone gave an opinion of me that I wasn't supposed to see, but I don't think it was 100% true. Of course, I could be biased.

2. I want to go home and curl up in a ball.

3. I should just suck it up and ignore it, because the person who wrote it doesn't matter to me anymore, but does matter just so I can prove that I'm cool without them.

2: hugs for cuilainie... it must be horrible to work for a control freak like that!!! do you love your job other than that so it makes it bearable?????

3: i am going to feed harrison something yummier than cereal to see how he does... i am thinking carrots... or maybe zucchini.... well, maybe to babies, pablum is yummier than veggies... ick... ;)

4: bonus: i am going to the doctor when chris gets home.. i have been feeling blech since saturday.. and woke up with earache pain again.... and my headache hasn't stopped since saturday either, and i don't want to overdo the tylenol... bad for your liver you know... and my liver could technically be harrison's liver, though we have to rule out three people before it's decided it will be me after all.......

[sarahkate]

1. :hug: Awww...Nicole, just ignore what that person said. Everyone here knows you are rockin' cool and our opinions are the only ones that count anyway :lol:

2. I can't think of anything to say at the moment. :unsure:

3. Oooh..I have a purple pen. Now that's something!

[freckledcutie]

Not living in the city, I don't know what I would do without my car

Probably get less sleep

and lose weight

[sarahkate]

1. Oh no!! "Eldin" from the old tv show Murphy Brown died. See story here (http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=638&ncid=638&e=2&u=/nm/20040309/en_nm/people_pastorelli_dc). He was my favorite character on that show.

2. I have found that semi-heated Nervousness debates actually keep me alert! Usually from about 1:00 - 5:00 PM I am sitting at my desk half asleep, waiting to go home. But now I am all awake and my adrenaline is pumping away. We should all "argue" every weekday! (joking! Joking!!!)

3. I'm hungry. I think I'm going to have mashed potatoes for dinner.

lol I swear my facts are generally the same...

1. That is so sad. Ever see the movie "striking distance?" He was so creepy crazy in that.

2. I know! I feel so juiced. I'm going to work out or something. Arguing can be fun sometimes.

3. I was going to have a sweet potato so pretty darn close.

[sarahkate]

1. I have never seen the movie. I will have to see if my local video store has it!

2. I could see that guy playing a really good creepy crazy guy. He did have the creepy crazy guy hair. :P

3. I have never had a sweet potato before! Actually, that's kind of a lie, I had some sweet potato fries last year. They were pretty good, so I don't know why I haven't tried making some real sweet potatoes at home! Maybe I should.

1. I found a site where I can buy canadian chocolate cheap.

2. Shipping costs more.

3. I bid on Kindereggs on ebay. I am such a nerd.

[sarahkate]

1. Mmmm.... chocolate.

2. Now I want some Cadbury Eggs! I might just have to buy some at the grocery store tonight.

3. Time to go home. Yipeeee.

[chunkymonkey]

drinking water right now

I smell good

lots of paper clippings and other odds and ends on my floor from last night

[Curlita]

I just had some M&M's but I am still feeling like a need a hot chocolate from the espresso stand.

I got all excited about the We Must Vote thread, but by the time I got in there, everyone had made all my good points already. Still, it's fun to read all the various informed thoughts. Not only are you people crafty, you're smart too!

My Girl Scout volunteer isn't coming in again today. When will I get my cookies???

[bluecrayon]

heat snaking in through the floor into my very toes...

summer just jumped right over spring and is making me lazy, wistful, cranky and eager all at once...

wondering if my old darn car will send me a postcard from his new adventure!

[Dalmaney]

1. I think this may be the first contraversial hot topic thread that I don't really care about.

2. I barely care about Canadian politics... foreign politics can take care of itself.

3. I am hungry. Also confused, stressed, but vaguely happy.

[Cuilanië]

- I woke up to the joys of political debate when I moved to France... one thing that can be said about Canadian politics, is that they're kind of boring. ;)

- I'm increasingly miffed about not having the right to vote here... I live here, I pay taxes, the government's decisions affect me, shouldn't I have a say? Even if I'm not a citizen?

- I've stayed up way too late reading that thread... I've decided not to post, because misuse of religion in politics gets me way too worked up. And I have to sleep soon.

Bonus, since it's past midnight... 9 :D

[Dalmaney]

1. I went and read the thread... and I do care about the religious side, but still don't care about the politics enough to learn how the American system works. Our way is just so much simpler... no one cares about Saskatchewan, but there really aren't many of us, so I can't really blame 'em. :canada:

2. I'm contemplating starting a slam thread about Christianity. I'm so curious as to what the word means to people. It seems to mean alot of things to other people it doesn't mean to me at all.

3. (And please, don't take this the wrong way, ie. as an attack against anyone here) I am still working out what I believe about the whole homosexual/sin issue... I need some more time and more conversation. It's been interesting watching my roomie deal with her family the past few months...

[Sirius]

gwensmom - nothing was hanging out. i actually had to do physical work at work, and i guess it was more than my clothing could handle. It was a calf link dress with buttons down the front and the botton and under (but not across) the bra buttons came off. Yes, two.

I just decided to retire the buttons instead of sewing them back on. The two button thing was a little wrong of the dress. it betrayed me.

Have headache. tried to take chocolate for it, but it didn't help.

[Lilac]

I had to work on site all day today. I was the only woman there...and...you know...men are VERY clique-ish! I'm in such a foul mood over the while ordeal.

I'm so uptight and feeling so inadaquate. I hate it when I let other people get to me so.

Thank God I get to work from home tomorrow.

[Larrissa]

oh the wonders of the edit. im bored.

[hammerquill]

1. The religion-and-politics thread (though that's not how it started) got my day off to the unusual start of looking up things in the Bible, and considering possible responses to the different parts of the thread, from different intellectual and especially historical points of view.

2. By the time I got home certain of the responses on the thread - not uncivil in themselves - made me doubt my ability to frame a civil response.

3. A section of plaster crashed down from one landing of the outside stairway onto another in my apartment building last night, apparently just at random. It's a good thing it didn't happen when anyone was there.

4. It revealed a long-disused but gigantic wasp's nest.

[chunkymonkey]

1. ho hum it's 1 am

2. my hands still smell like garlic from cooking dinner

3. I like that

[siafu]

sometimes i feel broken hearted

like now.

it will go away in a little while.

[medeous]

1. i got my envelopes mixed up and sent people the wrong stuff :(
2. i'm 4 minutes behind schedule
3. i use a daily moisturizer with spf 20

Mine's only a factor 15!

I also wear anti-aging moisturiser at night despite the fact I'm 24! (I know it won't make me look younger but at least I have pretty skin!)

I just ate a bagel that was almost two weeks past its eat-by date. They last for yonks in the fridge.

aw, siafu! What's going on, I wonder???

Day 2 without a car...

I am flummoxed ...

[stargal1998]

1. Nick leaves today for just under a week.

2. My aunt (mom's sister) may have cancer. They found a large gray spot in her throat/esophogus last week. I've been debating on whether or not to post, as I find out news friday.

3. Last night my (step) Dad got up from dinner with my mom and brothers and said he was moving out. No explanation. And when I called her back later, he acted like everything was cool and was all nice to me.


:'(

[thunderstorm_19]

since there are some skin-related posts....

1. my skin is awful in the winter. it's T-zone oily, but flaky all over because it gets dry as well. grh. at least in the summer it's just oily.

2. i have recently started taking more serius care of my skin by exfoliating, using toner, and moisturizing.

3. it's Clinique bonus time, so i think mommy will have to take me shopping this weekend.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. i would like to find something truly effective at getting rid of blackheads, not just preventing new ones. ideally not medicated stuff.

2. ok that blackhead talk's maybe a little gross.

3. i woke up like this: my bed is against the wall. i was facing the wall. the cat was stretched out along my back-side and right up against me as close as he could have been. if i'd rolled over that way, i'd have rolled right onto him. i had to climb out of bed by wiggling out of the covers, then crawling to the foot of the bed so that i wouldn't disturb HRH (his royal highness).

1. :( Oh no, that is so scary. I really hope Friday will bring your aunt good news.

3. Last night my (step) Dad got up from dinner with my mom and brothers and said he was moving out. No explanation. And when I called her back later, he acted like everything was cool and was all nice to me.

2. :( Oh no to this too!! This must be a really rough week for you and your family.

3. *hugs* for Nicole.

i love my boyfriend of eight years dearly. but we are both so different now.

1. Same here! I have been wondering a lot lately if my boyfriend & I should be together or not.

2. Last night we had a huge fight and I got so angry I threw two heavy pint glasses at him (one was filled with Gatorade). :unsure:

3. I feel like such a jerk, and it scares me that he made me so mad I resorted to violence. Though he was also acting like a huge jerk, so on one hand I feel like I should really apologize, but I don't think the way he acted was right either. So, now I don't know what to do. :(

[littlest-bee]

Oh this thread feels a bit sad today. Sending everyone three random hugs!

. today at work we've spent about 3 hours doing crosswords (the boss is away!)

.. I ran in the snow this morning

... I got a quotation for a removal firm to help me move in a couple of weeks and it is waaay more than I expected.

[freckledcutie]

The anticipation of receiving a couple of letters from people here at nervousness has me very excited

I guess I didn't realize over these past 15 years how maybe receiving a lett via snail mail could make me feel

Why does Siafu feel brokenhearted...could it be her dad?

[cryptaesia]

got to talk to death or aldona the other day

she sounded happy

but didnt have a weird southern accent

[bluecrayon]

cryptaesia's avatar unnerves me...

where is everyone today???

I am late for work, late for my life, and late for the sky... :blink:

[amylyn]

I want to do my homework.
I want to make postcards.
I am going to ?

[stargal1998]

1. I'm here, sorta. I think it's just one of those bad day weeks.
2. of course, I feel bad for being so sad when someone lost a car.
3. I'm debating on talking/emailing my stepdad, but am afraid that I might say something I shouldn't.

[sarahkate]

1. I apologized to my bf for the cup throwing incident. He apologized too. So things are good now I guess.

2. I brought salad for lunch today with raspberry vinagrette dressing. I can't wait to eat it. I don't like salad very often because I'm not a big fan of lettuce, but I decided last night that's what I wanted for lunch today.

3. I watched Pieces of April this weekend. What a strange and depressing movie. I also rented Cold Creek Manor. That movie was so predictable and not so scary, though there were a few parts that made me jump.

2. This is going to sound weird, but I just plucked my eyebrows at work.

3. Weirder still, I used my fingers because I didn't have tweezers...

hehehe the postman noticed i changed my hair colour, i suppose it's more noticable than i thought at first.

I am eating a candy called "weirdos" a nerd by any other name REALLY DOES taste as sweet!!

[nymphette]

1: blizzard

2: highways blocked from here to regina, no hubby home tonight

3: not necessarily a bad thing today

4: robyn time... after 11 pm tonight i answer to NOBODY!!! julian in bed at 8, harrison down for the night at 11, and nobody trying to get an agenda out of me!!!

[Lilac]

Damn, I just got a call and I have to be out on the construction site at 1:30! I was told after yesterday to just work from home checking calculations....

I'm going to attempt to make some postcards for Nymphette's craft show....but I think she might have to actually PAY people to take them.

I have to take my son to the bookstore some time tonight to buy some more Newbury Medal books for an upcoming school project.


*See everyone later today....I'll probably be in a bad mood. I always am when I come off a construction site.

[littlest-bee]

I have the house to myself tonight

I'm going to cook myself a proper meal (not sure what yet, I'm going to the supermarket on the way home for inspiration)

I'm also going to take a long bath safe in the knowledge that no-one will be knocking on the door and pestering me.

1: i sincerely doubt that- i know they'll be beautiful!!! or funky... or thought provoking... i've never seen any of your art lilac, so i dont' knowwhat category they make fall into, if any!!! :D i am so excited that i get to see all these nervouser's art!!! and all for a good cause :wub: ... :)

2: it's a bad day out there, i can feel it... not just the weather, but it seems... bad... i dont' know... some kind of aura thing happening....

3: or that could just be my headache-bordering-on-migraine... hm... <_< i went to the doctor yesterday about this headachey/dizzy/nauseated/tired/achey/pain in the ears- thing i have going on lately... i told her it must be a flu because there is a flu going around... my ears are clear, no infection, nothing in my throat, no fever... she thinks it may be stress related (this isn't MY doctor, just a walk in clinic doctor... who knows nothing of my life... pretty astute, that stress related guess i think...) but she says if it keeps on for more than two more days to see my family doctor and to think about getting a cat scan done, especially considering the migraines/headaches being so bad!!! :o

4: i dont have time to be sick.. or take care of myself if i am... or waste time at appointments and specialists and tests for me... there is too much going on lately for me to be unhealthy for any reason!!!! :angry:

[Cuilanië]

<-- grouch

- My ankle still hurts.

- My thumb's still weirdly numb.

- I'm PMSing

[Cuilanië]

- If my avatar is green and I'm a grouch, does that make me Oscar? :huh:

- I've been told today that the answer to "eight or nine" might just be eight, and that means the countdown gets stalled for a day... <_< :(

- Mail today: two bills. One is bi-monthly, the other annual, and they both managed to arrive on the same day. Bah.

[medeous]

1. i'm quite upset with the lack of respect in my school. :middle:
2. i'm quite upset with the lack of consequences in my school. :yell:
3. yesterday we were told that negotiations will still continue...we usually have our contracts by this time of year...at least i'm tenured, but i feel worried for my friends who are not yet. :ph34r:

[siafu]

hey medeous, is your friend with the christmas lights potpourri and lotion outside tights tenured.

i lost my grey glasses. i am wearing my broke ass golden oness that are a bazillion years old.

if i'm nice, i'll go cook, so my spouse can get out of bed to a nice breakfast. we'll see if i'm nice.

[girl-who-loves-sharks]

-1- I miss my Nervous friends, but every time I come back to the forums, I end up getting mad!

-2- I had salad for lunch. It was delicious.

-3- I am out of the habit of thinking of interesting things to say about myself here.

[sarahkate]

1. Be still my heart!! Is this really the sharky girl posting in 3 Random Facts??! :o :D Yay!

2. Oh don't get mad! Don't be scared away! We want you to stay & play. You could always ignore those controversial threads...though...I know that's a tough thing to do. They are hard to stay away from.

3. I am having rice for dinner....and "tacos" (with no meat, basically just soft tortillas with cheese and taco sauce). I can't wait.

[Lilac]

I got a shower and left for the construction site this afternoon and forgot to...uh...um...*blush*...use a tampon. :eek: I had to roll up a clump of distugusting Port-O-Potty toilet paper and stuff that in my underpants until I left. I don't know why I'm even telling you guys about this..... :blink:

I have to go do some outside work.

I'll start working on nymphette's postcards later tonight!

[kittymao]

mail going out today. all of them books!

Still haven't done Nymphette's books for the sale. I want to take my time on those...

I am eating a 97% fat free ginger cookie and it's so moist and delicious and NOT MADE WITH SUGAR! how cool is that?! I love finding new foods. especially when they're tastier and more healthy than the normal choice.

1: i hope they are store bought... then you can tell me the brand and where to get them... i <3 ginger cookies...!!!...!!!...

2: i have to get my butt in gear and start again with stuff for the sale!!!! i haven't done anything in two weeks now because of not being at home and also re-doing the kitchen... so... i grabbed a PIF twist so i have to get my butt in gear and make something!!! then i will get my creativity flowing agian and be able to work work work!!!

3: i think SK should make quesadillas instead of soft cheese-and-taco-sauce-on-taco-shells...... can you call them tacos if they are just cheese??? :P just think of how yummy they wouldbe if you spread your sauce and cheese on one shell, covered it with another and put even MORE cheese on top!!! and them made it all crispy.. mmmmmm... screw hummous and pita chips... i want quesadillas!!!!

4: and again robyn proves that she is now a sheep and way to open to the power of suggestion... though this time it was my own suggestion... does that still count??? :huh:

[Sirius]

1. hee. i won word bingo.

2. i now have paint on my keyboard.

1. :lol: Yeah, you are right, I guess that is actually a quesadilla and not a "meatless taco" since I don't put lettuce or tomatoes or anything icky like that on it anyway!

2. It's time to go home! Weeeeee!

3. Now I'm off to eat my quesadilla & rice... mmmm.

[nymphette]

1: harrison will be officially listed on the cadaveric organ list as of tomorrow morning, as soon as chris hears back from the kinsmen foundation as to whether we are for SURE approved for another grant... the tranplant teams needs "secured travel arrangements" before they will list, so we have to know 100% that they will pay for the air ambulance when we get 'the call'.... there should be no problem with this, but i am still very anxious.... well, about everything.. this is just one more step closer to tx... and i still have my reservations as to if it is the right thing.. i mean, i know it is, but... you know???

2: julian and i were playing with his hot wheels cars and car wash... i aske dhim 'wht do you want to me when you grow up???' and he said 'daddy'... i laughed and said 'you want to be a daddy??? that's it???' and he said 'julian be batman, at grow up'... and i said 'well, is batman a real person???' and he said 'no, batman a real MAN'... and i said 'oh.. so you wnt to be batman... what else???' and he said 'julian be ambulance driver, julian grow up...' and i said 'wow, that's cool!!! do you know what an ambulance driver is called??? a paramedic' and he said 'bear mana?' and i said 'pair- a- med- ick'... and he said 'no, real hard say bear mana... julian be car wash guy'.... i laughed so hard... he's so funny some times.. :)

3: i called canada post to complain about his meds not being dropped off here.. and they are sending someone in 1/2 an hour... the lady was a total bitch, i told her i was at home, all day yesterday, waiting for them to be delivered... she said 'they'll bring it by at 5:30.. make sure you are listening for your door'... WTF?? excuse me lady, but i was sitting in the living roon, not fifteen feet FROM the door at the time they had written on the tag, that they supposedly banged on my door!!!!! AAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! people make me so mad... why do i ever even leave the house i wonder.....

Already know what color my flag would be...

No republicans, democrats, independents, greens, communists, people's party people, marxists, atheists, Christian right wingers, Christian left wingers, Jews for Jesus, Jews without Jesus, moral majority types, fringe radicals -- would be allowed into my country. Only people without borders... ;)

3. she has 10 month old twin daughters at home

There was a surveyor working on the construction site today whose REAL NAME was ELVIS! I stupidly asked him why they (the other guys) were calling him Elvis and he said, "because it's my name." Duh! I'm such an idiot.

Zinny (the horse) broke a piece of fence and got up in the woods a little bit ago. My son and I had a heck of a time getting her back. I feel like I'm covered in ticks now!


I hate ticks.

[Dalmaney]

1. I only learned what a tick looked like last summer in Pinawa, Manitoba.

2. Same with Poison Ivy.

3. I think I'm a little crazy to want to go back...

[nymphette]

1: ticks gross me out!!! last summer, there was one on a friend's dog, and he pulled it off to show me (like i asked ot see it???? ICK!!! it's just a little flat SPIDER, i dont' want to see that!!!!! :o) yech!!! it looked like a big gooseberry becuse it was all full of blood... and greenish.... YECH!!! okay, i've succeeded in giving myself the creeps......

2: said postal worker, who was supposed to me here in'half an hour', as mentioned in the last post i made, JUST GOT HERE ten minutes ago.... i was pretty ticked... useless....... this is the same guy who, when he FINALLY brought the mail to our town to deliver to the PO boxes, at EIGHT P.M, had allthe sections of boxes open at the same time, and handed my mail to me because i said i was at #21... didn't ask for proof, nothing.... :angry:

3: chris is going to make it home because apparently the highways aren't blocked anymore, just 'hazardous driving conditions' to 'travel not recommended'..... hm... i was actually lookin gforward to being alone... now i feel deprived of 'me' time.....

[bluecrayon]

It is a falling off the planet night -- so warm it breaks one's heart.

so full of love colors it aches in my head...


so full of beckoning, I better wear my gravity shoes...

[Sirius]

1. Brian and I both took tomorrow off work so we can play all day together.

2. If you see me on here tomorrow yell at me, it's my anniversary I should be spending the whole day with Brian.

3. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[Sirius]

1. Other people's typos bother me...
2. Yet I make plenty of my own.
3. See above post use of its/ it's for prime example.

Bonus: I do really weird ones like wants instead of once and wing instead of ween. Not your typical there/their errors.... And I consider them typos because I don't make the same mistakes if I am writing, I just make them when I am typing...

[nymphette]

1: i thought your "it's" was used properly.. it was short for "it is" so it's right.... unless you changed it from its...?? hm...

2: what the hell is a ween??? :ph34r:

3: my mom is set to start her testing for donation.. i think she thinks it is a race to see if she can get done before he could possibly come up for cadaveric tx.... :) my tummy is full of butterflies now, thinking that as of tomorrow, he's listed- and it's happened once that someone who was priority one (at home, not 'sick') got listed and the next day got an organ!!!! :o so i am very nervous about that, as i still have reservations as to if it is the right thing....

even though i KNOW it's the right thing....

is it the right thing??

yes, it is the right thing....

i think

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

2: what the hell is a ween???
ween is a really funny pair of fellows that sing funny songs.
i would be happy to send you some ween along with the painting for harrison
ween's website (http://www.ween.com)

if you are easily offended then i would say that ween is not for you.

i am not easily offended

[nymphette]

1: ween.... weenie.... weener head....

2: i'd love some ween holly- if only because it's fun to say......

3: weeeeeeeeeeeen...... :D

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

I am compling a ween mix right now

ween IS fun to say.

they are ever more fun to listen to.

[Dalmaney]

1. I'm in love with my friend Scott Kurtz's "new" cd... it's been around for like a year, but I only got it last week.

2. I'm not in love with Scott... he's getting married to someone else this summer.

3. But he is a very cute guitar-playin' music-writin' underachiever.

[yardenxanthe]

I got a new CD from Amazon in the mail today (wee! gift certificate!)
The CD was Soul Music by Lisa McClendon
This is the third music-related list of three I've posted in a row in the Quizzes & Questions forum

I'm hooked on chocolate....

[stargal1998]

1. Ween's song with the little kid singing about spinal menengitis scares me.
2. So, my (step) dad told my mom he would stay a few weeks or a month, but that it probably wouldn't do anything.
3. I'm sending out really good vibes to Harrison. so that everything goes quickly, unstressful and totally awesome.

[gwensmom]

We didn't have internet access at home yesterday and still don't have it! :'(

By last night i was in a foul mood because I couldn't get on nervouseness all day. :yell:

Lots of people need hugs so here is a big one from me: :hug:

I am glad to see sharky and wildcherr in this thread!

hehe it's not a kid it's ween!!
and i really like that song, it's just in such bad taste. (hoping it won't offend nymphette)

wonky what color is your hair?
it's a couple colours thrown around my hair all random like.
it's like magenta, purple, yellow, red /orange i would take a picture BUT the film i bought is black and white so i guess it wouldn't give an accurate representation of what ze hair looks like i should really go buy some colour film to take a picture of that BIG canvas i painted

the postman just came to my door!!! weeeee
mail!

[stargal1998]

1. Gwen is adorable.
2. Ween still scares me... but I'd probably be cool with hearing more of their stuff.
3. I watched the entire first disk of Are you Being Served? Disk 1, season 1 last night and it made me happy.

1. No internet access? :( That's stinky. I hope you get it back soon!

2. I feel like a total slob today. I'm wearing a hoodie and baggy cargo skater-type pants and ugly boyish brown shoes. I had no clothes to wear today so this outfit was my only choice. I hate coming to work dressed like this because some of the people who work in my building are really dressed up, though most of my direct coworkers just wear jeans and nicer shirts. Sometimes I dress up a little, with skirts & tights, so today I just feel like a major slob.

3. It makes me mad that I have at least 5 pairs of pants at home (and even more skirts) that are in brand new condition that I could wear if I lost about 10 or 20 pounds. <_<

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

i smell fresh brewed coffee and marijuana.

not in my apartment

i hope it's not just my mind playing tricks on me

[Lilac]

There are some guys about a mile down the road from my house wearing Haz-Mat suits digging along the side of the road. I wonder what in the world it could be? A dead body? Toxic waste? Somebody's septic system REALLY backed up and overflowing? Hmmmm....I'm going to go down and ask.

I'm taking my Mom, Gram and Twin Sis out to a very nice Japanese restaraunt this Friday. Yum! I can't wait.

And......JEHOVA'S WITNESSES just now came to my door AGAIN!!!! What the heck! They stop here like every other week. My black dog almost bit one as he handed his copy of "The Watchtower" through the door.



***hmmmm...maybe it's the body of a JEHOVE'A WITNESS that those Haz-Mat guys are digging up down there. These guys are notorious around this area!

1: not that anything weird al sings is really 'offensive' (unless youa re one of the singers he parodies) but i listen to that and it's fine... although, not by choice... chris is a huge weird al fan.... <sigh>

2:chris has a lot of other parody songs, like 'what if god smoked cannibus' (to the tune of what if god was one of us), 'star wars cantina' (copacabana), 'he got the wrong foot amputated' (keep it separated), 'asshole son' (black hole sun).... they're very funny, and tongue in cheek for the most part....

hehe it's not a kid it's ween!!
and i really like that song, it's just in such bad taste. (hoping it won't offend nymphette)
1: not that anything weird al sings is really 'offensive' (unless youa re one of the singers he parodies) but i listen to that and it's fine... although, not by choice... chris is a huge weird al fan.... <sigh>

2:chris has a lot of other parody songs, like 'what if god smoked cannibus' (to the tune of what if god was one of us), 'star wars cantina' (copacabana), 'he got the wrong foot amputated' (keep it separated), 'asshole son' (black hole sun).... they're very funny, and tongue in cheek for the most part....

i am tempted to send the cd express post just so you can hear it right away
but i am cheap

i can't explain.

1. When I was a teenager (like maybe 15 or 16) this group of Jehovah's witnesses would come to my door to "visit" me. It went on a few times a month for at least a year! I don't know why they were so interested in me. I guess because I was shy and wimpy and was too scared to tell them to go away, and I would just stand there in my pajamas and nod my head as they went on and on about Jehovah and gave me yet another copy of the Watchtower, and once they gave me a bible too. :o My sister & I would scream and giggle after they went away. Eventually we were smart enough to jump up everytime we heard a car outside and if it looked like the Witnesses we would hide behind the couch and wouldn't answer the door. :lol:

2. My aunt, uncle and two of my cousins are Jehovah's Witnesses. One of my cousins got married a few years ago & it was horrible because my mom, my sister, my grandmother, my other aunt & uncle & cousins, and I were the only ones there who weren't Jehovah's Witnesses, and it was quite obvious because everyone else knew each other because they all went to the same "hall." You should have seen all of us non-Jehovah's drop our jaws during the ceremony when the "preacher" (minister? I don't know what they are called in the Jehovah religion) said to my cousin "Jennifer, do you SUBMIT to you new husband?" Or something to that affect. SUBMIT??!! What the hell?

3. No offense to any of you J.W.s out there!! ;)

[nymphette]

1: i have a jehovah's witness problem here too... ;) they came one day shortly after we moved in and started chatting... saying they were a non-denominational group, blah blah blah... and they gave me a little magazine, what the heck is it called???? aware?? awake?? anyhow... right befor ethey left they gave it to me... and i went back into the house and it had a copy of the watchtower tucked inside.... :P they think they are pretty sneak, they always say 'oh, we know how you and chris are all about the family, so here, we thought you'd enjoy this' and give us that magazine with the watchtower tucked in... like we haven't caught on??? heh heh....

2: i am wimpy and just listen to them and nod my head.... i can't tell them to stay away, i am too nice... :P although i did answer the door when i was wearing some slightly revealing clothing... (a tiny black tanktop with no bra!!:O and a pair of shorts) and it was the guy, with his teenaged grandson... hey, it was like 36 degrees out there and i wasn't expecting company!!!! they kept commenting on how it's so hot and 'isnt' it hard to stay cool and dress for the weather'???? :rofl:

3: i invited the young mormon missionaries to come back and do the complete set of visits with me... i have to admit i terrorized them.... i refused to ask them questions about the book or mormon, instead keeping everything i had to ask them from the bible...;) i have done a lot of research into the mormon religion because i have family who are part of the lds church... and i just wanted them to really THINK for themselves about religion, and really think outside of hte (book of mormon) box.... most of what i picked their brains about, they either tried to change the subject or said 'we'll have to ask someone about that'..... :P i feel sorry for them now.. i was pretty intense....

p.s. i offered them coffee every time they came.... heh heh heh!!!! :P

(nothing in this post was meant to offend any lds members or jw's!!!! i have family who are both and i respect their decision to follow whatever religious doctrine they want.. i don't agree, but i respect it... :)

[Lilac]

I must say that a dog, especially a BIG dog, is a good deterrant to visits from Jehovah's Witnesses.

I must also say that these particular Jehovah's witnesses were lucky Blackdog was not out in the front yard when they arrived or they would have had a Cujo-esque experience.

Perhaps I should start keeping old Mister Gruff (my extremely ill-tempered old billy goat) in the front yard because he's nasty and likes to butt. I think the JH's would maybe stop coming if they were given a few good hard butts.

[kittymao]

you know, the more Lilac talks about her home, the more I wish I lived at her house. Do you have chickens?

Today's gonna be a crazy day. Lots of running around and gettign stuff done. But- I'm on spring break! Yeay!

So. yea. I'm gonna whip up a Gus site. I'll post linkies when It's done, ookey?

[stargal1998]

1. When I was 12 I babysat for a doctor and his (irish) wife. They had 3 kids. A five year old, three year old and a baby. And one day I went to the door with a witness there, balancing the baby on my hip, the 3 year old attached to my leg and the five year old hiding behind me. I guess they thought I was a teen mother or something because they never had witnesses come back, even after they moved (I knew someone else on the street).

2. In college, I had a friend who was raised as a JW. She did not think it cool. In fact, she continually told me she thoughts her parents were 'off' (no offense to others out there).

3. Now all the crone-ish women are talking about getting pierced. I do not want to even THINK about that.

[nymphette]

1: i am a crone..... ;)

2: julian got this dvd from my brother called the story keepers... it's some religious kids cartoon or something.... he asked to watch it today ( i dont' think he'd seen it yet at all...) and aske dwhat it was about.. i said 'i think it's about jesus' and he said 'mmmm.... cheese is deeeelishis!!!!' heh heh...

3: waiting to hear back from sasktel as to whether they will donate a pager to us to keep in contact with the sick kids hospital...

[stargal1998]

1. Jesus, cheese and delicious...I can only imagine a conversation like this with Julian... It's a good thing. I hope Harrison is going to be this cute, of course, Robyn will be tearing her hair out like mad...
:rolleyes:

2. I asked my boss for AOL tins/cds to alter. He gave me about 45, 1/2 of those are tins and dvd cases. Woo HOO!

3. I subscribed to writers market online, and I'm going to try and submit some work this month.

[Cuilanië]

BOUNCE!!!

- the answer to "eight or nine?" is NINE!!! :D I'm getting nine days off from work!

- that makes the countdown... 8.

<--- VE-RY happy :)

[stargal1998]

<quote>i am a crone..... </quote>

You are totally not a crone. Believe me. You're actually nice and you speak and you're not totally evil.

1. Now they're talking about a 'toy' party. Ewww!
2. It's not a traditional 'toy' party, but one of those :spank: toy parties.
3. Darn, I guess this is another time I'm not invited to socialize with the crones. my loss ^_^

[nymphette]

1: i've been to one of those parties... well, actually TWO, but one doesn't count because there were men there... <ahem> BOYS i mean... they acted like a bunch of silly little kids through the whole thing, giggling and making comments, and pushing each other.... ever so mature they were... not..... i felt sorry for the woman who was trying to make the presentation... ;)

2: i'm an old lady nicole.. don't fool yourself... ;) heh heh!!!

3: conversations with julian are always interesting.... <_< they need a raised eyebrow smilie... that's what i always do....

4: hurrah for cuilainie getting time off work!!!!! and lots of it!!!! :thewave:

I'm happy for you, but hope this doesn't mean 9 days away from Nness.

1. I have letters to finish tonight. ;)
2. I got some flyers and an envie from publisher's clearinghouse today. They don't sell magazines anymore, so I'm not buying.
3. I cannot believe how shady they are, but they assured me someone with the initials 'nk' would win the big prize. :rolleyes:

It does and yet it doesn't. ;)

- I enjoy being cryptic, can anyone tell? :P

- hehe Robyn - after all the overtime I did last month, it was either give me time or pay me a whole lot of money. I prefer the time, though. :D

- Wishing I could share cb's lovely weather... I saw snowflakes again today, for the second day in a row!!! Even I am getting tired of the cold...

[chunkymonkey]

1. I can't stop listening to the violent femmes ever since I saw the mtv2 album covers show that guster did.

2. I have an addictive personality

3. I think I'm losing my voice for some reason (whcih I think is cool cause I love that husky sexy sound.) B)

[Lilac]

No, no chickens Kittymao.

I do, however, have ticks. In fact I just pulled one off my leg about an hour ago. I curse ALL ticks to a violent death involving tweezers and a lighter!

If I werent such an environmentalist, I'd use pestacides to get rid of all the ticks around here!

just finished nymphettes ween mix....... hoping she's not easily offended, ween is umm different.

Ha! Chris just made a Ween mix for my brother. I wonder how his compares with yours, Wonky.

I am SHOCKED to see that I am still on the Top 10 Posters list. Wow.

I am feeling more happy right now than I have all week, but I am not sure why.

[Lilac]

I just have to pop back in here to recommend an extremely good book...for those of you out there looking to read a good book!

Year of Wonder: A Novel of the Plague

Kind of historical fiction, but it was incredible.

[chunkymonkey]

where is everybody?

getting dark around 6 now... spring is on it's way

I'm going to be 22 in less then a month which seems strange to me.

When this happens to me I put on some Patsy Cline or Tom Petty and sing along, hitting all the low notes perfectly.

I *think* our internet outage is finally over.

Today is my sister's birthday. She is 38.

[Dalmaney]

1. I just spent fifty bucks on underwear and bras.

2. This seems like kind of a waste, as no one who cares will get to see it.

3. The important thing is that pretty underthings make a day better.

[tanagee]

I am going to host the e-bay auction of Wonky's painting for Harrison. I'll let y'all know when it's all set :)

My Hubby is in sirius' neck of the woods this weekend drag racing, so I am all alone with Megan...I can work on my projects without having to answer any questions. My Hubby has no idea about nervousness, not because he wouldn't like me being creative and artistic, he'd just be mad I am spending money I shouldn't be spending. (How am I going to explain the WonkyWalking Head? :lol: )

It is warm and sunny and beautiful here in So. Cal. It was REALLY windy yesterday so the clouds and smog was blown away; or as Megan would say "it blo-ning."

[gwensmom]

Gwen and i both got haircuts today and we look cute.

I have art on display at Zeitgeist and Gwen is showing two pieces on a refrigerator in Austrailia.

I went to the grocery for cooking oil and while i was there a half gallon of neapolitan ice cream jumped into my basket.

My momma brought me some year of the monkey stamps.

[Curlita]

My husband is reading the book that tanagee sent us and has gotten into the whole pregnancy thing (thanks, Tana!).

He's suddenly very interested in my diet and is making up a little spreadsheet for me to check off my servings of protein, dairy, etc.

It's a little bit like being someone's 4-H sheep being prepped for the fair, but mostly it's just cute.

[chunkymonkey]

with all this cute hubby talk I kinda wish I had one sometimes

then I come to my senses, realizing it's a lot of work

that's generally how I feel about babies too

**lots of time to get ready and change my mind though :)

I'd be content to just spend time with my long distance person to find out if I can even call him my boyfriend!

hubbies would take up too much space, I think...

ranting and raving is fun up to a point, then it starts to feel like a hole in a balloon --

[chunkymonkey]

I agree about the ranting cb

I wish there was something new to debate

I'm more of a responder to debates rather than a starter so I'll have to wait for the next hot topic

[amylyn]

husbands can be a lot of work.

boyfriends are much more fun.

either way it is easiest to be alone.

well now that's a deal... but I'm not sure for who. hehe. ;)

I just want to be able to complain and tell cute stories.

Maybe I could just pretend I have a hubby and make up some things.

Or hey maybe I do and I'm a double life on the internet weirdo. :ph34r:
