2. I have a new addiction : metal tins.

i've been addicted to some french candies in a metal tin since i figured out i can't get the english ones i love so much. god i'm such a glutton. :)

-i'm sitting in the school library sucking down doctor pepper like it's water and eating candy like it's going to run away from me.

-fun fact i just found out by looking at the wall infront of me: Word processing is ONLY available in the Tutorial Center - room 211 and Computer Lab - room 2046
i didn't know that until now.

-i'm waiting for my history professor to put an assignment up on the class site so that i can get it finished and not have to wait until the end of the semester to be done with the class.

6: back to bed... i have harriosn's flu.. kill me now... :ill:
Noooooooooooooooooo! Oh Robyn I am so sorry. Being sick and still having to take care of someone else is just so discouraging.

I finished Harrison's scrapbook pages. I'm not sending them unless you promise not to post photos of them! I am scrapbook-challenged.

So far there have been no babysitter revenge attacks but I am not letting my guard down so soon.

[sarahkate]

1. You know those people who are so insanely stupid they put piping hot food, just taken out of the microwave or oven, in their mouth and burn themselves? Yeah, well, I'm one of them. I just burned my lip with a REALLY hot Pop Tart.

2. I want to move. Moving is fun. Where should I move to?

3. Seeing Joe's posts about school make me both nervous and anxious to go back to school. I really need to submit my FAFSA forms so I can hopefully get lots of financial aid. The thought of going back to school after being away for 5 years is terrifying.

Move to ENGLAND! Yay!

I am going square-eyed trying to layout some pages of tables at work today. It is the worst job in the office. It's my boss's idea of a leaving present I think. (For those playing along at home, I finish this job in 2.2 days!)

At lunchtime I bought a silver metal dog tag (round) which I had engraved with someone's name. I'm going to use it as a tag on a birthday present! The woman who engraved it thought I was weird because I only wanted a name, no contact phone number. She kept saying, "But what if your doggy runs away?! How will you find him?". In the end I told her the dog was chipped and the tag was just because dogs look cute with metal tags on their collars. I suppose the truth might have been easier but I was embarassed!

3: hugs to alison- hope you feel better soon!!! how long has this cold lasted anyhow???!!??

1 in reply... i think it was wednesday or thursday when i woke up with that distinctive "very dry throat", and suffered through that for two days, then on the morning of the third day woke up decidedly unwell. i forget how i felt on friday, but i know i'd started feeling pooey by saturday... i think it started friday. and it's wednesday now.

2 i am, however, feeling less pooey than yesterday, which was decidedly the worst day of this cold. i feel less sick, but still feel slightly 'hot' and very sinusy.

3 i have eaten some pineapple, coffee, 1 pc toast w/ strawberry jam, and some grapes thus far this morning.

[timeittook]

-i want to go get me a handgun. i haven't shot a gun in so long i think i've forgotten how!

-i used to shoot jars of lightening bugs with bb guns to watch them escape into the night.

-i want to start a garden in my backyard. grow fruits and berries instead of vegetables though.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i'm trying to figure out who i caught the cold from... my mom says she's fought it off a few times recently (has managed not to actually get 'sick')... saw my sister last weekend/monday, and she had the sniffles... so it was probably her... might have been matt, but i don't recall him having the sniffles (i also saw him on monday last week).

2 mum made stir fry with the leftover chicken last night... soooo good. i think. LOL - i could slightly taste it, we used peanut satay sauce so it was kinda spicy...

3 i am CRAVING ice cream.

1. That would be the coolest! We could be neighbors Rosie! And I would be sure to bring some Peeps with me for you to try. :P

2. Though, I'm afraid to fly, so I would have to get over there on a boat. :P My boyfriend has actually mentioned wanting to move overseas someday, but I can't imagine him living anywhere other than the U.S. I don't think he is open minded enough to suddenly find himself in a place with a somewhat different culture. :(

3. I need to plant some flowers in my yard this Spring. I have been telling myself for the past few years that I was going to, but I never actually do it. I have bought many bulbs and seeds that have probably gone to waste :(

[thunderstorm_19]

1 the mail arrived, including my fibres... :)

2 i am wondering about lunch... beef broth, with 3-minute noodles cooked in, or spaghetti sauce, over a serving of the noodles... or both...

3 i am a dork, and originally submitted this post with only 2 facts.

That would be ace! I wonder if I'll ever meet a non-UK Nervousness person? (apart from Alpaca that is!) Me & DH have been talking about going to Vancouver for ages - we still hope to go sometime this year - but isn't that on the opposite side of the continent to you Skate? (do you like that name by the way? It's how I think of you in my head!)

I'm wondering if we should all send Alison some vitamin C?! And Robyn too. Hope you both feel better soon.

I am scared of guns.

[sarahkate]

1. I just had to check (my knowledge of Canadian geography is rusty!) and yes, Vancouver is unfortunately 47 hours away from where I live. Yikes! Well, if you fly over be sure to wave to me from the plane if you pass over NY. ;)

2. Skate. Hmm... I like that! B) Heheehe.

3. I have never been to Canada, and Montreal is only about 3 or 4 hours north. I really should take a weekend trip there someday.

[Dalmaney]

1. I know a secret about this weekend.

2. None of you care, and I really want to tell someone, so here goes: The (Ex)Boy is coming to town late late late Friday night! Shhh! Don't tell.

3. Because he wants it to be a suprise. I'm really glad I'm not being suprised, though, because if I'm going to be up all Friday night, I need to get all of my Saturday work done by Friday afternoon.

Woo woo Dalmaney is juggling two boys at once!

I want to go to the UK with Sarahkate so I can see the Tate Modern, Rosie, Pooshouse, Paganfrog and all the great peeps (non-marshmallow) over there.

I am scared of guns too. :o

2. Hm.

3. Guess we are co-masters.

[siafu]

ok, back to the dread pile of work.

wish me luck.

i think my prize for finishing will be eggs and a piece of toast.

[Dalmaney]

1. Even more juicy... it was the Current Boy that told me about the (Ex)Boy's plans. ;)

2. I still think I'm a bit tacky to be dating the ex's best friend. I don't really care, though.

3. I ate lunch with the Current Boy. He never has lunch and I end up feeding him my leftovers. He doesn't expect it or anything... the lounge is just the most logical place to meet up now and again.

1. Ok! I will swing by and pick you up. Then we can cruise over to England in my yacht. Woohoo! :)

2. Don't feel tacky Dalmaney! Love knows no boundaries, not even the ex's best friend boundary. ;)

3. So far today I have had 2 strawberry pop tarts and a Hershey's with almonds and for dinner I will probably eat egg noodles with some sort of soup mixture. I really need to start eating healthier.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

I am still feeeling icky sicky.

I got my shipment of t-shirts in yesterday and to my dismay I had to pay gst and pst on them!!! Stupid taxes! I will work on these when I am well again.

Puddles of blood are disconcerting to see

[Curlita]

1. Apparantly I am yet another Master of the Universe. Somehow it feels less special when you have to share.

2. I have not been doing much work today and now I'm starting to get that guilty, unclean feeling. Must finish newsletter!!

3. On the other hand, it was fun looking at houses on line. We are supposed to be moving this summer and its nice to know that there are things out there in our price range.

[picasso]

the sewage pipes for my house are still being worked on

i'm tired

survivor is on tonight!

[thunderstorm_19]

1 my sister just took me out to timmy's for coffee

2 she won a donut; i didn't win

3 she gave me her winning stub though b/c she doesn't often eat donuts

so, by extension, i won a donut. :) she loves me. heheeeeeeh

[kittymao]

blah. I hate spending money on copies. It should be free.

I got the sneezies too. I wanted to ralph this morning. Didn't want to go to school. But I'm a trooper, sucked it up and went. I still feel kinda cruddy, but at least the urge to lose my breakfast isn't looming.

I had a weird dream that I made out with my friend. And NOT my boy. Kind of uncomfortable- I have seen said friend today and feel... well. weird.

[arty_boy_smith]

1. i bought a smashing pumpkins "adore" t-shirt from a head shop, i don' t think they knew what it was seeing as it was $25 and i've ordered one that was $40

2. i'm recording an album with my best friend

3. today i helped set up a jacksoul gig and got free lunch

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i think i'm feeling a chunk better

2 why do messes (piles o' stuff on el floor) get bigger before they get smaller?

3 me hungie! wants dinner! (will probably be an hour at least)

[cheshire-cat]

1. I'm making my first matchbox shrine and having trouble keeping everything in place. Glue + Me = Disaster

2. I'm dreading my dentist appointment tomorrow afternoon. I think I've brushed and flossed about ten times in the past two days. I know it won't make a difference but I can't help it. ;)

3. I received some x-slips in the mail today from a friend who is completely unrelated to nervousness (or at least I thought she was) but on some of the slips I saw the address of another nervy person! Hmm...strange stuff.

[Lilac]

I was up all night with my sick child and now, after work, doctor, drug store and making dinner....I'm about ready to drop from exhaustion. What am I doing here when I should be collapsed in bed?

I'm just too tired to move, I think.

Could somebody please come over here and carry me up to bed???? Please?

[Dalmaney]

1. I have finished the first draft of my paper. All I need to do is revamp the intro and edit for grammar and punctuation.

2. YAY! This is a very good thing. I can now switch gears to math, which is scary.

3. If anyone cares to have a lively discussion on why women don't work in science, I am now an expert.

[Sirius]

!. A heard a remake of a Cure song on the radio. It was horrible. Why would someone cover a song, and make it so bad? And why would the radio stations play it?

!!. April is going to be an ultra-crazy month with school and work, and a birthday party every sunday except Easter...

!!!. I host Easter dinner every year. weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[gwensmom]

Cb is spinning her way to her infatuation guy

I hate it that Nymphette AND Lilac are sick/exhausted from taking care of sick kids :(

Still no babysitter revenge attack

[siafu]

i am writing a comic book called super genius retard grrrl. it is not too conventional, and in two pages has used the word retard three ways.

i never would have tried to do all the cartooning myself before nervousness. i think it looks ok and gets my point across.

i had the most horrible cramps today. right now, i am feeling the kind of good that you get when something stops hurting a lot.

Because it is from the movie 50 First Dates, and they want to pimp it.

I want to move to England too, although I can't decide if I would want a flat in London or a big house in the country. I watch so much BBC America that I am sure I would have no problem fitting in.

However I do not think Hubby would be able to work in his chosen proffession in England, as I do not know if they do a great deal of drag racing in Europe and have a huge need for high performance transmissions for American Muscle cars.

Since countdowns have been the latest here on TRF...here's mine 7

Maybe I am such a geek that I am scary...hmm

Time for Tubby bye-bye.

[medeous]

spent my morning returning stuff my daughter bought and buying her more stuff in a color/size/style that actually fits her...then i read the lovely bones.

spent my evening taking her out to eat and to see the rush hour showing of confessions of a teenage drama queen...then arranging her weekend.

will spend my friday night taxi-ing her and her co-best-friends to the mall to see free acoustic avril lavigne concert...not my particular cup of tea, but it's free and they're besotted.

[Sirius]

1. Some days it is a challenge to be an optimst.

2. I think I have more in my home "to Be filed" pile than will fit in my filing cabinets. This is a direct result of going back to school because 1) it eliminated filing time, and 2) it created mounds of paper that I really should just throw away, but might end up being useful. Really, I've gotten as far as sorting into piles with such titles as "Paid Bills" "Medical" "Investment Statements" "Work Stuff" "School" and the School stack is literally 5 inches tall.

3. I am wearing a band aid, purely for medicinal purposes.

[Sirius]

1. I am going to Sedona Saturday.

2. Without heat the pool is 77 degrees, which people complain is cold. Heated to 80, a mere 3 degrees higher, they do not complain.

3. It should not be this hot in March.

[Sirius]

1. I do, in fact, feel like a loser when I crack myself up.

2. But, I truly enjoyed my medicinal purposes/bandaid thing, although a bandage isn't really medicine is it?

3. Off to conquer the mounds of paper...

[Larrissa]

- Magistra Mundi sum! "I am the Master of the Universe!" You are full of yourself, but you're so cool you probably deserve to be. Rock on. Yeah, all that sharing sort of bothers me... ;)

- He's made me dinner. :wub: Smells delightful... Time to go eat!

- Meeting up sounds like a good idea. When though? :)

Bonus... Thinking of cb on her journey...

[AlienSpy]

1. I woke up at 6 this morning and I couldn't go back to sleep because I've been having problems with my sinuses for 2 months now. I hate when that happens!

2. I'm going to be very tired at about 3 or 4 this afternoon but I don't like taking naps so I'm going to try to stay awake and then I'm going to be completely exhausted by 7pm. I know this because it happened yesterday, and the day before, and...

3. I never ever have had sleep problems before I got pregnant! :o

[Dalmaney]

1. I'm trying to stay super-well rested this week, as I now can anticipate being up until... well, 5 or 6 at least Saturday morning. The (Ex)Boy is only getting into town at 2, so the Boy and I will probably just follow the mass plan until then, and create the "select" party when he arrives.

2. Today I will edit my paper. I should print the damn thing and do it in hardcopy, as I always get lost when I read onscreen.

3. I got my income tax back! We're going out for dinner, and it's going to be someplace nice! Wait... we were already doing that. But I think I'm going to pay for the Boy, as I know he's broke and I am now far from broke.

[Dalmaney]

1. I don't want breakfast today, so all I've had is cof-fee.

2. I find it a little unnerving that the (Ex)Boy knows most of the details of me and Current Boy. Dating the ex's best friend makes things a little weird sometimes.

3. I think I may stalk the Boy today and hang out where I know he'll pass by after class. At least I don't have to pretend I'm not doing it anymore.

[thunderstorm_19]

1. the worst of the pains i'm in is my aching neck...

2. i am otherwise doing much better (again, not 100% 'cured' of the cold yet, but much better)

3. i can TASTE my coffee, and what's more, I could SMELL the coffee from upstairs before i came down to get it... :)

[littlest-bee]

Good afternoon to all my TRF friends! (acronym used by someone a page or two back. I like it!). This is possibly my very favouritest thread on the forums. It makes me happy just being here and posting randomly.

I have 1.25 days left in this job. Can I get a WOOT?!

We went out for lunch and I ordered haddock. I swear there was an entire fish on my plate. In fact, it wasn't haddock, it was WHALE. Served with the yummiest mushy peas. Slurp.

[sarahkate]

1. Woot! Woot! For littlest-bee!! I'm so jealous. I wish I was leaving my yucky job in 1.25 days.

2. TRF is my favorite thread too.

3. I'm very bored today and I am soooo sleepy.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i just now understood what the short form TRF meant.

2 oy vey, i must be having a blonde morning

3 5 minutes to 11 a.m.... maybe i should go get changed and get on with the day...

[sarahkate]

1. Richard Simmons slapped someone (http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20040325/ap_en_tv/people_richard_simmons)! :lol: That's horrible, but so funny.

2. Speaking of Richard Simmons, I need to lose some weight, but I'm not doing it by Sweatin' to the Oldies.

3. Instead I'm going to make a list of things I will allow myself to eat and I will try my best to stick to that list of foods, and now that the weather is getting warmer I must make the effort to take my dog for a walk EVERYDAY! Last night I did some situps and it wasn't so bad, so I think I will also get in the habit of doing some every night.

Yep, battered haddock with chips and mushy peas, salt and vinegar. And because I am classy bird, a gin and tonic too! And yorkshire puddings are delicious! I'm from Yorkshire, did you know that?

I never usually drink (alcohol) at lunchtime but I decided that today was a special occasion so it was okay.

I had to look up "vinegar" in the dictionary because I couldn't remember how to spell it!

rosie you are making me very hungry! no i didn't know you were from yorkshire specifically... neato. :)

1 i am having the rest of the beef broth from yesterday, with noodles in it again!

2 i almost always type "noodlies" then have to go back and fix it...

3 i think i will need more food later... dad finished the grapes :( but i might get him to cut some more pineapple (i'm useless at it)

3 more in the same post:

1. i love G&Ts (gin and tonics), but only when i really fancy one

2. i would like to have a guinness... now...

3. i could, but i shouldn't.

[medeous]

1. there was no maraschino cherry on my strawberry shake, which was a disappointment.

2. i wore flip flops in the rain and splashed through puddles in parking lots and then made a quite satisfying squishsqueak as i tromped through shops this morning.

3. i think i should mention that i didn't find The Lovely Bones chilling, upsetting, disturbing, suspensful or even especially entertaining.

[sarahkate]

1. Oooh. I want a strawberry shake with a cherry on top!

2. This whole eating healthy thing isn't off to a great start. I had 4 cookies for breakfast and a little bag of Doritos for lunch. :( I could have gone out and bought lunch somewhere but I didn't feel like it since it looks like it's about to rain any second.

3. I will go to the grocery store and buy some healthy things tonight. I swear!

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i gots me a sharpie!!!! (a PIF, from ohpossum)

-financially challenged

i do it under protest

i have heartburn for no apparent reason. maybe all the protest

[kittymao]

The train again today. It looks kinda yucky outside, but I like kinda yucky. Means it will be cool out in Gilroy. In fact, I kind of like the rain too. I like teh sun also... I guess I just LIKE BEING OUTSIDE.

I have honey vanilla chamomile tea steeping- it's been that way for like... 10 minutes. I should go check it out. Mm. Honeytea.

Oo, and I totally bet my mangoes are ripe! Mm. Mangoes.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 removed a little of the stuff from my sig and put it in my profile.

2 can't decide what else to change...

3 really don't want to clean bathrooms...

[timeittook]

-i want to learn esperanto really bad. i know i'll never need it but it'd be fun to write people letters in it and to talk trash about people that make me mad without getting hit.

-i wish it'd rain today. it's like 70 outside and i really can't wait for spring to really start. i miss good rains.

-i might be getting a vw jetta soon. with my savings and the fact i'm suing my doctors and am getting a job my parents might co-sign for me.

[cryptaesia]

today i was able to wrangle free cds from my favourite record label to give to nervousers

i told my friends at NINJATUNE that their awesome sounds were quite unheard and they agreed to send me cds for you all

woo-hoo free cds for nervousers who love cool music....pm me for details if your interested.....

[sarahkate]

1. I was thinking about joining cryptaesia's LMAO, but I'm not so good at writing reviews, especially about music. So...... I don't know.

2. I bid on and won this (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3593584103&ssPageName=ADME:B:BN:US:1) very groovy 70s sewing book on Ebay. I should be receiving it soon! Can't wait. I figure I can either learn to sew or use it as collage material.

3. This weekend I must start working on the puzzle for Cindi's LMAO and finger puppets for yardenxanthe's LMAO.

1. According to the radio the guy was an Ultimate Fighter who was doing some sort of promotion and saw Richard Simmons walk by. Who knows....

2. I Sweated to the Oldies once. I laughed off more weight than exerciesed off..

I need another Richard Simmons fact....

Oh...

3. Pre-sweating to the oldies, when I was a kid, he had a tv show that was I think a combo cooking and exercise show that my mom used to watch.

-I have two cavities and one is getting filled three days before my birthday and the other is getting filled the day before my birthday. Fun stuff.

-I'm glad that nymphette is feeling a little bit better. Thirty Helens agree that Nymphette deserves to have a very speedy recovery. :)

[gwensmom]

SPRING CLEANING TIME!

I'm putting up a flyer tomorrow at work to try to sell one of Gwen's old carseats.

Next week we are selling an old van we have and don't use since we got the newer one.

I have weeded through my books and will list them on Amazon.com.

I have opened a paypal acct and hope to be able to figure out how to sell on ebay

I have four nervous things to send out and my goal is to mail them on Monday.

I need to make some major changes in my life.

Not sure exactly what they are but when I figure it out there will not be a bunch of clutter around here to weigh me down.

I am glad Robyn And Alison are better! :wub:

1. Oooh...good idea! Maybe you can breathe in a bag and mail it to me? I wonder if the germs would stay intact through mail? :P


3. Pre-sweating to the oldies, when I was a kid, he had a tv show that was I think a combo cooking and exercise show that my mom used to watch.

2. cooking and exercise??! :blink:


3. I signed up for cryptaesia's LMAO. Wonky convinced me to. She is one persuasive chick! :P

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i gave in to my need for chocolate and ate 4 girlguide mint chocolate cookies... now there are only 2 left and they look lonely.

2 i am also having tea.

3. and i had/ATE (originally wrote hate) some strawberries

thanks.

1 every time i see my name, and the name robyn used together, i think about me and my sister (who is also a robyn)

2 stuff... to... doo...

3 so many double rings... (that's dad's voicemail line)

[Dalmaney]

1. I have my roomie's car, because she wanted to get it off campus before it got a ticket.

2. So I finally recycled all my bottles. I made $17.

3. The car hates me. It's an ancient Volvo with a manual choke, and I stall it ALOT.

[siafu]

i have finished my bar application.

haircuts are ten bucks this weekend.

i need a haircut.

[sarahkate]

1. For a while my dad had an old yellow Volvo. One night shortly after getting my license I borrowed the car to go somewhere with a friend. The car was loosing it's power steering and I almost killed myself. That was an adventure.

2. art de toilette (http://www.artdetoilette.com/scale.html). Custom scales. Interesting. I think I should go home and decoupage my scale with cutouts of beautiful thin women to encourage myself to lose some weight..... and it would be fun to step on their perfect pretty faces too.

3. 20 minutes until work is over. I haven't had a single bit of work to do all day though. After I leave here I will be going to the grocery store. Oh what fun.

2: i managed to get a nervous project finished too... wow, i impress myself sometimes.. ;) well, actually, it was almost all completely done, but... now it IS done..

Whenever I get stressed out and fed up, I clear clutter and get rid of things. It's very cathartic. I'm probably due for a major spree sometime soon...

The Flu Diet thing made me think of a knit night conversation some friends and I had a year ago. I'd lost a bunch of weight thanks to acid reflux and another woman was talking about how breast-feeding is great for getting rid of pregnancy weight. Another friend of mine, who is in her 50s, said, "Great, so my effective weight loss options are heartburn or breastfeeding?" Maybe you had to be there, but it was pretty funny.

I had to go to a Chamber of Commerce meeting today. I was sort of offended becayse the speaker was talking about the downfall of the American industrial system being caused by too many students majoring in liberal arts because that's easier and not enough in the sciences. Harrumph. I wish now I'd walked out.

[freckledcutie]

I bet you guys forgot about me...bwahahaha!

I'm working like the diligent drone that I am

I mean, I'm on spring break but am working on art projects and deadlines...I sometimes want to throw responsibility out the window and forget a deadline, but I'm not wired to deal with being late...wah!

[Dalmaney]

1. I have made the Boy a mix CD called "Shiny Things".

2. He has a weakness for being distracted by shiny things.

3. Last weekend, he called my his "favourite shiny thing". :wub:

[Dalmaney]

1. Today at school the power went out, but only in the Engineering building.

2. I didn't have an eng. class or lab, so I got nothing out of it.

3. It seems just not fair for that to be the case.

[Lilac]

1. We got a new drafter at the office and she and I just "clicked." She is awesome! She reminds me of Jeanine Garolfolo! Yeay! It's gonna be nice working with someone fun again!

2. My greyhound is driving me absolutely bonkers because he will not stop peeing on my kitchen floor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3. My driveway is a mud pit.

Just wait until the nesting kicks in! I moved all the furniture and vacuumed under and behind EVERYTHING in my bedroom when I was 9 months pregnant because I realized I couldn't bring a brand new baby home to the dust bunny ranch.

1. 6...it's not as exciting as flying off for a romantic holiday though.

2. Megan is annoying the crap out of me today. I'd trade her for Robyn's husband and the caramels but I think I'd want her back within a few days. (And I can't say the same for Robyn :)) Besides, I have my own husband, why would I want another one? But I do want the caramels!

3. My mom's friend bought Megan an outfit for her birthday from TJ Maxx, my mom gave me said outfit in a Marshalls bag so I took it back to Marshalls to exchange it. Boy, did I feel like a ditz when the guy pointed it out to me!

[Lilac]

I am extremely miffed because I havent been able to work from home for over two weeks!

This is one of the longer periods that my presence had been required at the office and on sites.

I'm really hoping that next week will be a little less crazy!

[siafu]

i was ready to turn in my bar application, but i left the fingerprints at home.

i will go back on monday.

i'll be so pleased when it's in.

this sounds momentous and rather ominous.

1. i used a trick i learned from a resource teacher tonight.

2. nan had a zillion math problems and was really overwhelmed by how many there were and how long it would take her to do them.

3. i folded her paper in sections so she only had to look at ten at a time, then she had no more complaints and finished them easily.

[Cuilanië]

- I wish everyone here could be as happy as I am. :wub:

- Chocolate... making dessert for tomorrow. mmmmmmmm

- My mother's birthday is tomorrow. Well, technically, it's today... ;)

[littlest-bee]

1. I just had my "leaving interview" at work. Only 6 hours and 20 minutes to go.

2. I am so excited I'm wriggling in my seat.

3. Stargal has a phone post in her LJ, it is so funny! She sounds like Minnie Mouse!

2. I have an imaginary pet cat called Doctor Cat (its a long story!)

3. Disgusting party trick: I can flip my eyelids inside-out!
This is my first ever post in TRF!

All three are still true.

I wonder how many times I've repeated a fact in this thread?

[Dalmaney]

1. I don't think I'm ready to trade the Boy for a husband; he's still on his very best behaviour.

2. Plus, I'm not sure how many other people would want him... he's a little crazy.
Three Random Sub-Facts About The Boy
a) Any weather warmer the -5*C is shorts and sandles weather.
B) He knows nothing (officer, nothing at all) about how cars get hung from bridges... but dreams of the improvements a helecopter would make to the process.
c) He is a quasi-celebrity on campus, and everyone there calls him "Tank". This refers to both the fact the took care of the Engineering truck on year (the tank), and his ability to drink beer.

3. I never call him Tank, except if I'm talking to other Engineers who don't know his real name. There are quite a few.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 - i am feeling better again, but my neck still aches, i'm still froggy, and i still feel a little hot... but i'll be ok. hehe (*stops whining*)

2 - so many things i don't feel like doing (chores n stuff)

3 - i am almost out of lipglosses. i just found one good one, and i have two that are nearly empty, so i'll have to add that to the list of things i need at shoppers drug mart...

1 i was wondering this very same thing last night!

2 i'd better get on with the bathrooms i didn't clean yesterday... then my room and the basement (my comp desk, and craft desk) need clearing up, should change my bedsheets, wash the pans from the muffins i made the other day...

3 i love sending mail, but hate the cost of postage!

[sarahkate]

littlest-bee inspired me! I had to go back and find my first TRF post:

Posted: Sep 24 2003, 01:01 PM

1.  I just spilled white-out (sorry.. i mean "LIQUID PAPER") on my pants, and my chair! Stupid me - I was holding the open bottle in one hand and the cap in the other and of course I had to use the hand with the bottle to move a paper, in doing this I tipped the bottle to the side and out glugged the nasty white stuff. Ick. I hate white-out. It smells like onions to me. peee-yoooouuu!!

2.  I am wearing new shoes that I bought the other day! Weeeee!! I love new shoes.

3.  I am hoping to go back to college (after 4 years) next spring. I work full time so I will be taking classes online, majoring in small business management. I'm nervous!

1. I am surprised. I joined N'ness July 16th, 2003 and didn't post in TRF for over 2 months after joining!! I guess I didn't know what I was missing at the time, now this is my favorite thread. :)

2. Ooooh I want to hear Stargal's LJ post. Too bad I have to wait until I get home tonight to access LJ.

3. I miss Stargal. :( And girl-who-loves-sharks (though I have been emailing her once in a while). And I was wondering the other day where freckledcutie was but I noticed that she posted here within the past 24 hours so she is here afterall, YAY! :) And I miss D_O_A. And I miss Insipid. And lots of other people who aren't around much anymore. :(

3. There is no ice cream in the house. :(
I think this was my first post in 3RF. It would be about food!

I still don't have any ice cream in the house.

But I have chocolate!

[sarahkate]

1. I wish I had some chocolate. Ooh cadbury eggs. Almond Joys. Reese's Pieces. Now I really want some chocolate. Have you ever noticed that chocolate is discussed on the forums very frequently?

2. I went to the grocery store last night and bought "healthy stuff" so today for breakfast/lunch I have Raisin Bran and two things of Fruit Leather. I just ate an apricot Fruit Leather, and I can now say that apricot is my LEAST FAVORITE Fruit Leather. Yuck.

3. I tried to do more sit-ups last night but I gave up because my tail bone couldn't take it. I need to buy a mat so I don't have to do them on the hardwood floor.

3. I have a '68 Camaro up on blocks in my backyard.
My first TRF post. It only took ME two days to find this thread :)

All three are still true except instead of Megan's play group, I should be doing laundry.

1. 5...it is for 2 things.

2. I took this picture for a LMAO I am doing. http://img38.photobucket.com/albums/v117/tanagee/allsaintssmall.jpg

3. My web savvyness has increased exponentially since joining Nervousness.

first time posting in this thread, though i read it when i need a giggle:

1:  when i was 18 i dated a 40 year old musician, just to freak my mom out...  (my husband is 2 years younger than me, things have changed... :) )

2:  my 3 year old son has an extra tooth (five in between his eye teeth at the front instead of four)... i know this isn't about me, but i just wanted to share that...

3:  my name is actually robin, not robyn, but i have been spelling it with a 'y' since i was about 10 years old...  and EVERYBODY spells it with a 'y', even my mom!!!


1: this is my first... because it says it is my first.. :)

2: i need a nap.. i overdid it by going out to grab a few groceries last night and have had a splitting headache since...

3: i am plopping my butt down in this computer room at 3 (when julian and harrison are both in bed) and not moving until they are up from their naps!!! because i NEED some time in here for ME!!! ;)

[sarahkate]

1. So I planned on eating Raisin Bran for lunch. My intentions were good. But....

2. The vending machine at work is out of 1% & 2% milk and they did have whole milk (which I hate) but it was at it's due date/sell by date today so there was no way I was buying it. So....

3. Since the weather is BEEEEAAUUTIFUL today I decided I would use my half hour for lunch to go out to a gas station/convenience store to buy some milk. I get to Cumberland Farms where there is ONE small bottle of 1% milk left on the shelf. I grab it, look at it, sell by date: March 23!!! They didn't have any other white milk except for in large containers, so I buy a bottle of green tea and leave. I head down the street to Mobil, I go in and they have no milk at all!! Aghghghhhh!!! So, no cereal for me. I could have just gone home and eaten cereal and come back to work in the time I spent going to the two gas stations. Oh well.

[Curlita]

1. Christine, this sounds like a situation for a really good book. Let me know if you want some recommendations (The Girl With the Pearl Earring occupied me for a 4 hour train ride).

2. My fat polydactyl tabby Frieda is on my lap, trying to rest her head on my typing hand.

3. There are Christmas cookies downstairs calling my name...

Edited to add: to be fair to Frieda, she has slimmed down considerably since I posted this.

Here's my first post to this thread, in December (obviously). It took me about 9 months to post here after I joined the forums.

Today I went to my second prenatal appointment. We got to hear the heartbeat! It's getting easier to believe that there is somebody in there.

Tonight: Jonny Rockets! Onion Rings! Chocolate Coke! Then we're going to see The Reckoning. Whoo hoo!

[nymphette]

1: no babies for me... not by choice but necessity... :(

2: i want pictures of all the nervous babies when they come!!!

3: i can be the cyber aunty...

[nymphette]

1: i made a huge pot of lumberjack vegetable soup....

2: called lumberjack soup because whenever i used to cook for my parents (soup, stew, chili, what can i say, i love big pieces of veggies!!!) my step dad would complain that i made the chunks 'so big, are you cooking for lumberjacks?????'

3: i am still not exactly sure why lumberjacks eat big chunks in their food.... <_<

[nymphette]

1: there is enough soup for everyone!!! come on over....

2: and sourdough buns, though i cheated and did the dough in my breadmaker....

3: strawberries for dessert.... come on... any takers????

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

i have a strict "no babies" policy

i have a canker sore invasion on my hands they are sprouting up everywhere and making me grumpy, but on a high note the cranky pants aren't on yet so all is well.

I've had a really unproductive week

[sarahkate]

1. I want some of Nymphette's soup! Yum.

2. If I was a millionaire I think I would be a groupie and follow my favorite bands around, attending all of their concerts. Outdoor concert season is approaching! Woohoo! :)

3. I feel an intense desire to create something RIGHT NOW! Too bad I'm at work.

[Curlita]

I am on my way over to Robyn's for dinner... how do you make rolls in the breadmaker? We have a breadmaker, but we just use it for bread.

I have an annoying volunteer here. He is the weirdest person I've ever met and he makes my skin crawl. And he's really slow.

I need to get back to work on my blankety-blank newsletter. Grr.

[nymphette]

1: curlita- just use the 'dough' option (if you have it!!!) otherwise, take the dough out of the breadmaker after the first rise- punch it down and let it rest ten minutes, form your buns (or whatever, cinnamon buns, shaped loaves, whatever!!!) and let htem rise another 1 1/4 hours or so... then bake 'em at 350 for 15-20 (buns) or 30-40(bread)... i use the breadmaker to make my dough when i am feeling ever so lazy, but not lazy enough to BUY bread or buns.. :P

2: julian picked out (and ate) the red peppers, cauliflower and carrots from teh soup... today he doesn't like onions or tomatoes... <_<

3: i wanna be a groupie with SK... well, depending on which band she picks to follow!!!! :lol:

bonus: i was a sort of groupie one summer, when i was 15 or 16- a saskatchewan band called big house... the guitar player supposedly 'liked' me... we all had a thing for the drummer though!!! :o we followed them around from venue to venue, a couple places in regina, yorkton.... sigh... fun stuff!!! :D

1. Hah! I hope you wouldn't be offended if I came to your house to eat your soup and did the same thing! Sounds like Julian and I have the same taste in veggies. :lol:

2. "if I came to your house to eat your soup" .... why does that sound so funny to me?? I think I'm getting slap-happy, as my mom would say.

3. Yay! Nymphette and I will travel around the world together as professional groupies! FUN! I'll be a groupie for any band (except for Country music bands) because concerts are usually fun no matter which band is playing :)

He he I am working on a blankety blank newsletter too! It is 99% finished. Then I get to make 300 copies, fold them, tape them shut and bulk mail them.

I hope I get a lot done this weekend. But I probably won't because I have to stay up with Gwen tonight and I will be too tired.

I think I have bursitis in one of my hips. Getting old is not fun :(

[nymphette]

1: gwensmom should come with SK and me to be groupies!!! nothing like rock and roll heaven to make you feel young again!!!

2: i think i will make my sister watch the banger sisters with me tomorrow... although, i will want to chop my hair all off after i watch it.... susan sarandon's 'new' punky cut always makes me want to cut mine!!! and anything with meg ryan in it (except kate and leopold.. her hair was awful in that!!!) and wynona ryder always makes me want to chop-chop!!!!

3: i think we should be aerosmith groupies.... they are coming to saskatoon soon (wah!!! i wish it iwas here, there may have been a hope in heLl that i could go then!!!) and i really really really want to see them agaiN!!! they are awesome live!!! i saw them when they came... 12 years ago??? 14??? the "pump" tour, anyhow, whenever that was....

i think i have just dated myself... really...

[kittymao]

Saw dawn of the dead last night. Different from the original. Deliciously different.

I'm kind of making beans. Crock pots rock.

the next door neighbor is playing some loud numetal music. If it was more clear I wound't mind, but all i hear is bass-ey rumbling and can barely recognize it as music.

Don't you love bulk mail?? Isn't it the best?? Those cunning little stickers, those anal-retentive forms! Ah, the rapture. I'm about 80% done with mine, and then I need to get the Board Prez to read it. I will send you a copy of my newsletter and if you send me a copy of yours. :)

I am drinking chocolate milk. You know, for the baby. Cuz the baby likes it.

I'm also very sleepy.

1: babies LOVE chocolate milk... heh heh!!!

2: a somewhat better for you alternative is those carnation 'breakfast on the go' (used to be 'instant breakfast') that you get the powder and mix with milk... and some people say ovaltine is too, but.... <_< the instant breakfast is sooo yummy, and tastes just like chocolate milk...

3: you can get mocha, strawberry and vanilla too.. but why would you want to??? ;) (the mocha is very sickly sweet..)

[kittymao]

oo, carnation instant breakfasts. delicioso.

I want some. And can't.

You know. I want a lot of stuff. For today, we'll just say SUGAR and leave it at that, mmkay?

[nymphette]

1: i never post on the film and actors thread if i dont' know the answer without looking on IMDB... it just feels like cheating to me!!!!:O yeah, i am such a goodie goodie... ;)

2: i am glad ther eare more people hanging here now... i only have about 20 mintues till julian needs to get up and all iw ant to do today while the boys sleep is waste my life on here!!!! TEE HEE!!!!

hehe... one way to make kids (mum used to do this to us) eat/drink all the veggies in their soup is to make the soup, then put it through the blender to puree all the solid bits. then it's all mixed in...

1 i like it best when some of the total veggies are pureed and some are not (so the soup is thick, but has some solid pieces)

2 swiss chalet will be dinner tonight

3 i'm working my butt off on my list of environmental websites (i posted about a while ago... a document i'm creating listing as many as poss. environmental/agricultural websites, incl. charities, businesses, government ministries, etc...)... done the enviro-stuff... need to complete the agricultural...

Don't you love bulk mail?? Isn't it the best?? Those cunning little stickers, those anal-retentive forms! Ah, the rapture. I'm about 80% done with mine, and then I need to get the Board Prez to read it. I will send you a copy of my newsletter and if you send me a copy of yours. :)

[/b][/quote]
Yes yes Curlita, let's trade! Mine ought to be ready some time next week. You can put it in your museum under "neanderthal publishing skills".

Our bulk mail facility just got some new equipment. You just put the letters in the trays in zip code order and hand it over. No more stickers or rubber bands- yay!

Today I will officially start using my new bank. Depositing my paycheck there on the way home today. Gotta learn new acct and pin numbers and there's no room left in my brain for them!

hehe... one way to make kids (mum used to do this to us) eat/drink all the veggies in their soup is to make the soup, then put it through the blender to puree all the solid bits. then it's all mixed in...

1: he usually DOES like them though... and today, i actually did puree some of it... because it was just too thick with chunks... not that the chunks were too big... <_<

2: my pineapple is very yummy.... i am making a white cake when julian gets up... the cat needs more water in her dish, though she really only drinks out of the bathtub tap....

3: nobody knows that i stuck 3 facts in my last post.. i am being sneaky-sneaky.... B)

3: tell me something new???

1. Here some new info for you: My boyfriend and I are going out and buying a new toilet tomorrow to replace the old one because it leaks and it's gross. It ought to be interesting trying to install the new one. Knowing me I will have to pee as soon as we take out the old one and then I will have to drive to the grocery store to use the potty.

2. Hey! You didn't say it had to be something new AND interesting. :lol:

3. Something else new? Hmm.... There is a dead stray cat buried in our backyard :( I came home from work one day last winter and there was a dead kitty in our yard. It didn't look injured so I think it might have died from being exposed to the elements since it was so damn cold out, either that or old age. I cried the whole rest of the day and my boyfriend and a friend of ours buried it in our yard. I made them wrap the kitty in a blanket and put it in a box before burying it.

Sorry. That was a sad fact :(

[nymphette]

1; when julian got up, he went into the kitchen and then pitched a fit... apparently, i was supposed to save the rest of his soup.. he wanted to have it 'later'.... hm....

2: supper time, and i wasted my afternoon on the forums... yay!!!!!! mission accomplished!!!!! :D first time i've sat for over an hour on here in ages!!!

3: kraft dinner it is... i am not hungry after my bowl of pineapple, so....

[siafu]

i dreamed about this thread. i forget what it was, but part of it was talking to rustell.

i'm going to go work for minimum wage. i hope i like my seven bucks an hour job.

i can't wait to be independently wealthy.

[nymphette]

1: where is everybody????

2: gotta feed my mah-jong addiction...

3: company's coming tomorrow... means i have to cook meat.... hm... <_<

[nymphette]

1: nobody's playing tonight!!!

2: a woman on my january 2003 due dates forum just had another baby, a beautiful baby girl named alexa belle... i am very jealous... and pining for my own never-to-be-baby girl.... <sigh>

3: i gotta get over that... maybe it'll hit home completely after chris gets a vasectomy... :o

[tanagee]

I got 2 1/2 inches cut off my hair today because it was sooo dead, and I didn't tell my hubby so I could see if he noticed. Hasn't yet. :rolleyes:

I keep confusing something that Pamela Anderson said on Jay Leno with being something that Robyn said here. Pam said that when her mom comes to visit she makes dinner in the crockpot and Pam being a vegetarian thinks the idea of 'boiled meat' is really gross. Maybe it's the canadian connection...I dunno.

psst...I'm going comando today. shhh! :ph34r:

[nymphette]

1: aarrrrggghhh!!!!! i just popped on here real quick like to see if anyone was here, and when i went back to iwin.com to play mahjong, it was not working!!!!! :wacko:

2: how can i feed my mahjong addiction now????? :ph34r:

3: somebody will pop in here and see my serial posting and put a stop to it by making their own post... i am sure of it... :P

1: it's either because i said that i have company coming tomorrow night so i have to cook some meat for them, or because we both have huge breasts... i'm thinking it's the former.... ;)

2: that's the first TRF i've mentioned my breasts in... i think i've done well so far...

3: i'm ROFL because that's not something i really ever talk about.. and i just mentioned the girls three times in one post...

1. I'm sort of obsessive with ink pens--I have to use one up before starting another--even if I buy a box of 20 identical pens I actually keep track of where they are and use 'em one at a time. Sick, huh?

2. Unlike some of you, I WILL kill spiders in my house. It's MY house, after all. (Does this make me evil?) Plus, they sort of freak me out. Once had a baaad spidy bite which made me very sick on my 19th birthday. But if I see one outside I leave him alone. The house rule goes for centipedes and ants, too. But moths I'm careful to catch and let go outside. Don't know why.

3. I'm a bit long winded. As you can tell. ^
1. So this is the first post I made to TRF way back in October of 2002--the day after this thread was started. Still all true. Well, I'm a little less obsessive about the pen thing now.

2. It took me 40 minutes to replace the toilet seat in my bathroom. The old bolts had rusted and I had a turrible time getting them off. I nearly called a friend to come over and help me.

3. I think padded toilet seats are tacky.


Hmmm. My mind seems to be in the toilet tonight <_<

[littlest-bee]

I discovered today that I have seven boxes worth of books. This is after I cut them down by half - a very painful process because I love to keep every book I've read (except library books - they frown on that!)

I ate a pork pie at lunch time.

I adore doing cryptic crosswords. I'm getting better at them too - yesterday I completed one - that doesn't happen very often so I was very pleased with myself.

I LOOOOOOVE chocolate malt Ovaltine. I had some with breakfast. Ya know, for the baby. Cuz he wanted the iron in it. Yeah, that's it.

I'm at work. I'm tired. I was up too late at a stinky movie (Taking Lives).

2 you probably didn't notice i was gone

3 i was at matt's (from after dinner last night until about an hour ago)

[Dalmaney]

My First Post:
Ahh! A fun thread! Excellent reading.
1. I am a first year engineering student, after a few years of relative freedom.
2. I have seen the pyramids.
3. I know how to curl. As in the sport.


Pretty random, I guess. For today:

1. The (Ex)Boy didn't show last night, because it was raining so they didn't drive. He'll probably be here tomorrow.

2. The Boy and I declared last night to be our first traditional date. There was dinner, a jazz club, and a movie, and we were both in our formal-est wear.

3. If I don't study my math today, I'm screwed.

[Dalmaney]

1. Yesterday was an exceptionally good day.

2. I found a roommate, got a Millenium Scholarship, had IVCF Bible study, hung out and got ready w/ one of my girlfriends who is a hair and makeup genius, had a wonderful time with my Boy, and even went to sleep an hour before I'd planned. ;)

3. I think I said "Today is a good day." dozens of time yesterday.

[tanagee]

I messed up it is actually 3...it is 5 hours away by car and 2 years in the making.

I buy work pants for my hubby at the thrift store because he gets so greasy working on transmissions that I don't want to waste the money on pants that only last a short while.

I need to return a pair of pants to said thrift store because they were marked a 38 and are actually 42's. I hope they will let me exchange them.

[Curlita]

I like reading Dalmaney and thunderstorm's posts. Ah, spring is here and love is in the air! :)

We went out last night and tonight we're supposed to go listen to music; a guy my husband went to high school with (Gary Jules) is on tour! He hasn't hit it big quite yet, but we've been hearing him on the radio.

The main point of the last fact is that I am tired from all our wild socializing and I'm kinda wishing we could stay in and veg out tonight.

[kmfdmchick]

i finished a journal today.

i started a journal today.

i have a ton of packages to mail.

[siafu]

the spanish test didn't have too much legal spanish on it. i didn't know the word for sliding, as in sliding glass door, so i said glass patio door. i think the translations like those will probably work.

i just ate a tangelo. i love tangy food like tangelos.

i'm sleepy because i got up at 6:30 to go take the test. sometimes the small bus takes up a lot of transit time. the test was at 9.

[Dalmaney]

1. One of the girls from my bible study told one of the Boy's roommates that I was "glowing" yesterday.

2. Neither the Boy nor I are fully comfortable with this description. We have done nothing that would lead to the Nervous "glow" so many girls around here have...

3. She should know better than to use the adjective "glow"... I could take "bubbly" or something much better... but I get what she meant. :D

[medeous]

i picture dalmaney as a canadian rory gilmore.

i wish real life were witty and fast-paced with snappy comebacks flying hither and yon.

i spent quite a while seriously thinking about what holds me in this town and where i want to be instead and how/when can i realistically make a move.

ROFTLMAO... :rofl: i'm not quite sure why i find that funny (when keeping in mind my posts about the boy) but i really do find it funny nonetheless

1 men: can't stand living with them, but life wouldn't be nearly so much fun without them. :confused:

2 the one thing that sucks about staying over at his house is it means i don't get my coffee first thing...

3 he put his foot in it last night :poke: (before i went over), not in a way that made me mad, but instead in a way that made me laugh at him :poke:

[Dalmaney]

1. A day or two ago, the (Ex)Boy called both me and the Boy twitterpated and said it was a good spring for the previously loveless.

2. I couldn't even muster up a snappy retort, so I must have it bad.

3. I'm going to watch road hockey at ten tonight.... NTS, dress absurdly warmly.

[Dalmaney]

Because I think it's interesting, three more random facts about the Boy:
1. He knows most of the Campus Security people on a first-name basis.
2. He has been threatened with indecent exposure charges for running around campus wearing nothing but a strategically held heart-shaped box of chocolates. He assures me it was for a charity photo shoot...
3. He has been asked by some of our friends that are getting married in May to usher at the reception dressed up as Cupid. He, of course, agreed, provided they can find him a little bow tie to dress up the toga a bit.

Clearly he needs training.

When I started dating my husband, he was an occasional coffee drinker with a wimpy little Mr. coffee Jr. that made about a cup and a half at a pop. A few months later he had a new coffee maker and a serious coffee habit.

Then I had to stop drinking coffee, which put a serious and painful crimp on his habit.

Edited to add: does it bother anyone else that they cannot type the C-word without that little icon popping up? At first I thought it was cute, but now it sorta bugs me.

[Jennyblue]

1. My boyfriend left me last March after 4 years. He came back in January and now he is distancing himself from me again. I just about cant take it anymore.

2. I have no friends

3. I have a problem with being negative (ya think?)

[Bugitha]

1. I went to a new place for lunch and ordered a pannini sandwich made with artichoke hearts, olives, tomatoes, garlic and two kinds of cheese all melty on foccacia bread. Methinks I have a new favorite sandwich.

2. It is good to have friends with whom one look can imply an entire conversation.

3. I was awakened at 5:45 am by drunken college kids singing outside my window.

[Larrissa]

))

[medeous]

i would give jennyblue my advice if she asked for it.

i hate being given advice when i haven't asked for it.

i hate being asked for advice because a: it might be bad advice and if they take it then everything sucks even more or b: the advisee might decide not to take my advice, good or bad, which is just irritating.

[Bugitha]

1. Because I once admitted to occasionally flipping to the back of a book to see how it ends, a (sorta) friend used that to justify spoiling the novel I'm currently reading by telling me the plot and its conclusion :angry: . Its one thing if I'm spoiling my reading--its quite another to have someone spoil it for me. Hmph.

2. I ate steak for dinner and now can't find my tooth floss! Oh no. :o

3. There are a great many things I should be doing. None of them involve the computer. So it looks like they may not get done.

[Larrissa]

[gwensmom]

I want Medeous to give me some advice.

I have been trying to de-clutter the house. I was discouraged because it was going so slowly. But Gwensdad actually noticed, so I guess I am doing better than I thought.

I'm a packrat and I need to get over it.

[Kittyprin]

1. I am a packrat and proud of it!

2. I think in my last life I was Chinese. This is more of a sneaking suspicion than any great spiritual insight.

3. My artwork is becoming psychedelic and there is nothing I can do about it! :D

I have been having a GREAT time with the new nervousness gallery!!!
I love it.

it is sunny today

spring must be here because the kitties are all horny

[Bugitha]

1. I have not taken a shower today and I feel grungy.

2. I decided to get some exercise this morning while I was a the laundromat. I loaded the washers then walked a few laps around the perimeter of the shopping center. I was enjoying the walk so I returned to the laundromat, put my clothes into dryers and then back outside for a couple more laps. When I returned I discovered that I had put quarters in the wrong machines--they were empty and whirring madly while my clothes sat in sad little wet heaps in the dryers above. I can't believe I didn't at least make sure the proper dryers were going before I left. And to make it worse, there witnesses to my foolishness. Lots of them.

3. Dinner is already in the crockpot. This makes me happy.

[Dalmaney]

1. It's 2:30 pm, and I just got up.

2. I should spend a few hours with my math books... and I think I may actually do it.

3. I feel generally scared and nervous today... this is not a cool feeling.

[tanagee]

1. 2...it is going to be both fun and boring at the same time.

2. I went to Kmart today and in the seasonal department they had some really cute plastic/acrylic monkey plates, glasses, sipper cups and sports bottles by Joe Boxer.
2.5 I tried to find them at kmart.com so I could post a picture, but they did not have them there.

3. I went to the mall yesterday and they had special parking places for families only.
3.5 While at the mall I went to Johnny Rockets and they didn't have onion rings!! :angry:

[gwensmom]

I see Medeous in this thread and I hope she is going to post some advice

Today I was working in the yard and got dirt up my nose

Roadrunner had decided that we should not be allowed on the internet until after 5:00 p.m. This has been going on all week and Gwensdad didn't call about it. I called yesterday and they can't send anyone out until Friday.

Our new babysitter started last night and so far we really like her.

Gwensdad complains that I don't clean the house enough so I started a "cinderella journal". I will write down all the cleaning I do and shove it in his face next time he mentions it.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

i made a livejournal trading card, I rock!!

i still have canker sores

i still have no accomplished much..... BUT I HAVE CLEANED the apartment so I guess I did accomplish A LOT

Siafu, you still planning on writing me a letter

I got a letter from stargal this week and it was oh so cool to get snailmail

I hate that I've recently given up my life for this zine that will be finished on the 31st, because one of the people working on it with me is such a mean *$&@!...I truly believe that she needs professional help (if you ever see our zine in somerset studio mag then I'll let you guess who she is)

I am proud that siafu is proud.

I was looking at cafepress.com and can't figure out how they can sell posters for 17.99 in FULL COLOUR with bleed!! when I can't find a decent printer to do ONE for me at a price less than $98.00!!!!! How does this WORK!?! All i want is an 8 1/2 x 11 piece blown up to be POSTER SIZE!!! $98.00!!!!

1 why does my dad think it's ok for him to walk in and change the channel without saying anything?

2 i wasn't yet watching anything specific (waiting for simpsons), it just annoys me that what anyone else is watching isn't important.

3 HE is the only one who has a television in his room and doesn't like it when i go in there to watch TV, but he monopolizes the one down here any time he likes too.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i wouldn't have been bothered if he'd said, do you mind if i change the channel, it's just that he picked up the remote and changed it without asking.

2 anyone else would get screamed at for that.

3 fine, i'll go upstairs!

[Lilac]

My son and I took the horses out for a good long ride today! This was the first of the year and it was wonderful!!!

Yesterday I started spring cleaning. I started on the downstairs bathroom...threw out all the junk under the sink and in the cabinets that has accumulated and that I don't think I'll ever use...I scrubbed the walls and the floor...swept away the cobwebs in the corners...and as soon as I was finished, my greyhound promptly went in and peed on the floor!

I bought my son a new mountian bike yesterday. This is his first hand brake/gear shift bike!!!

[Dalmaney]

1. I am a little more worried about school and a little less worried about everything else than I was earlier today.

2. It's a good thing to be scared a bit over school... it means I care.

3. Church was really, really good for me tonight.

[siafu]

i feel a bit deprived of night church after reading dalmaney's post. i only have a morning meeting.

freckledcutie, i am still writing you a letter. it's just realllllly long. LOL. no, i'm just kidding. keep your eyes peeled.

i lost the case i interned on. maybe i feel like i knew i might and i feel that i lost mostly because some judges are punks.

[Sirius]

1. yawn
2. semi-stretch
3. it is only 7:30pm and i want to sneak off to bed to sleep it's been a hectic weekend.

[Sirius]

1. In 1999 our cat weighed 13 pounds.
2. We noticed earlier this year she was looking thinner, late in January we weighed her and she was 9 pounds.
3. Yesterday she weighed 6 pounds. This is not good.

[medeous]

1. i don't want sirus' cat to be skinny.
2. i want to be skinny.
3. gwensmom asked for advice: although your husband may be taking the work you do for granted, i'm not sure shoving your cinderelly journal in his face is a good idea...not having a husband or a cinderelly journal, myself, i can't say this with 100% assurance of being correct, but perhaps you could have a chart with chores and whoever does them signs off on the chart and that way he can see what you've done, he can see what he hasn't done and it's not there to prove anything, just to ;) keep track ;) of what needs doing. it sounds like you two need some time together away from gwen...do you ever get any of that?

No we don't. And frankly, I'm at a point where I need to be away from both of them for awhile!

It's not that Gwensdad doesn't do work around the house. He does tons. He has way more energy than I do, he doesn't need as much sleep as I do and he doesn't have scoliosis and back pain like I do. Yet he expects me to keep up with him 100% and it's just impossible. I cannot make him understand this at all.

I am looking forward to seeing the next Harry Potter movie. I understand they have a new Gryffindor scarf pattern this time.

1: :P good for you sarah!!!! sometimes they need to see it written down in black and white!!!!!!!!!!

2: inspired by sarah's recent declutterizations, i did top to bottom overhauling on the kitchen today.... 7 bags of garbage out, and i now have EMPTY cupboard space!!! (mainly becuse i took that stupid wooden dishrack display thingy off my countertop and put the plates in the cupboard!!!! gak!!! displaying my dishes, how stupid is that when my kitchen has about 2 square metres of counterspace!!!!)

3: i started working on my kitchen at 9 a.m... counting when i drove into the city to walmart for an emergency storage container run, i have sat four times today (yes, twice in the car...) that woul dbe lunch and supper time..... oh.. i am such a liar!!! i just sat down here at the computer, so 5!!!

4: bonus, i am done the kitchen except for the table/nook area because i did a complete circle, shuffling everything ahead of me and everything without a spot that didn't head to the garbage (ie: pictures, art/craft supplies, etc) ended up at the table... tht will be dealt with tomorrow after i do something with THIS room here, so i have storage room again!!!!:O)

5: second bonus.... i missed everyone today!!! alllllll day without popping in... that's a first for me, being at home without at least checking up on the forums!!!

1. I'm probably moving to a new place at the end of April, which will lead to a general declutterization and throwing out/ donating to charity binge. It's been two years; it's time.

2. I don't want to do this week. Wake me when it's May.

3. I was up until 5 yesterday/this morning, so I didn't get up until 2, so I can't quite decide if I'm tired enough to sleep yet, but I have a midterm tomorrow and need to be on my mental toes. The moral of the story: one boy is a bad influence, two are twice as bad. ;)
