Three random facts:

[bluecrayon]

well, I'll go with siafu singing -- it would certainly be better than the muzak I'm enduring in this waiting room! :D

the moon can definitely pull on us -- maybe that's why my blues are so jagged of late.

time to think pink maybe????

[Sirius]

per my calendar the full moon was on the 4th, and on the 11th it reads "last quarter" but the little picture of the moon looks more like have of it is there....

is that what this funk is about, the last quarter of the moon isn't settling in my karma cooly?

hate the funk

[Larrissa]

funk? i am too excited for the funk! i send my condolences to those feeling it though ...

hotmail blows balls

the desk is littered with last minute cd burning for the damn PIF thread i decided to post in :D i will have to stay out of there in the future, have enough mail addiction, thank you.

[siafu]

i decided to play the next cd in the changer, right? then i hear a plane that sounds very close and wonder if i am about to be crashed into and should i look out the window, but won't that waste time and maybe i should run out the back door and i'm barefoot and...wait...think...oh...the cd...back in the ussr. those bastard beatles. :rofl:

then i had a perfect moment of cake and coffee and bathrobe and life goes on.

i can't do much in the way of tasks today b/c the bank is holding my deposit overnight.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 it's around 27/28 degrees celcius today

2 it's going to tip with rain, the clouds are forming, the air is very damp

3 i just took some pictures with my camera (not, mind you, my dad's old one that i "inherited" a few years ago... i can't remember if there's film in that... i don't use it enuf)... 8 or 7 pix left on the roll, so in a week or two i will have pics needing scanning (i really need my own scanner, or a digital cam) a couple of which if they turn out will go in the spring loveliness thread...

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i will take pictures of the lillies, poppies, peonies, and lily of the valley patch when they each bloom too... the l.o.t.valley shouldn't be many more days before it's out.

2 dinner... want... dinner...

3 s'me and mum tonite, dad's out till later... we might watch a movie... quite possibly harry potter 1 or 2... i like 2... because i like dobby.

[zanna]

i don't know ..but there sure is some kinda funk going on today.

i'm not feeling like doing anything.

i think i just want to go to sleep ..but i can't bring myself to go lay down.

[chunkymonkey]

:lol:

I often think I'm about to be crashed into when loud planes go over head.

I have a red balloon

my funk has gone... hang in there baby's :peace:

[Cuilanië]

- The funk comes and goes... I've been working on stuff.

- I just cleaned the paintbrush I use exclusively for glue.

- I wanna know why I only get the creative rush after midnight?

[siafu]

they look cool, actually!

that's a very cool multicolor paint job.

i want dark green hair, but i can't do it right now.

[medeous]

i saw something weird and heartbreaking on one of my favorite kids today.

it looked like he had burned his name into his forearm, popped all the blisters and peeled off the skin.

when i asked him about it, he pulled his sleeve down and ran away from school. :(

[bluecrayon]

blood test and some eyeballing on the neck and some encouraging words and still no concrete idea of what this thing is...

being here takes my mind off lots of stuff, including this...

I bet if I were sirius I would have pushed through the cryptic words and gotten to the core of all this! :D

[siafu]

wow medeous. that sounds so painful and strange.

some encouraging words are good. sorry no solution just yet, blue.

there are a lot of songs about guns. does anyone else find this disconcerting?

[bluecrayon]

Kurt Cobain singing "and I don't have a gun" always gets to me whenever I hear that song...

I have definitely used these Q&Qs as a kind of therapy today...

my whole world is coming apart and sending me somewhere else -- I forget it all here.

Yikes... :ph34r:

oh how those sound like words i'd utter :)

i guess my blah mood is kind of lifting.

it's not as bad just because i know that i'll be going to sleep within the next 2 hours.

[Cuilanië]

The nails look good, Larrissa!

- I'm disturbed by medeous' story.

- I'm worried about cb...

- I can't sleep, but my eyes are burning.

[Curlita]

Count me among the funky, although mine is a minor funk.

I'm tired. I didn't sleep well last night.

My weekends always end too quickly.

[chunkymonkey]

I miss her

we needed this break if only to remind us that being with each other from afar is better then not being with each other at all.

I'd rather be angry than frustrated... I understand anger.

[Lilac]

Why am I still awake?

The house is unusually quiet tonight. Usually I hear all kinds of creaks and groans as it settles into itself for the evening...but tonight it's silent.

Kind of weird.

Isn't it great to have speakers that good? :D


I got my new passport today.

I didn't expect it for three more weeks. Yes, the government accomplished something ahead of schedule.

It expires in the year 2014. Seeing that date on it I find a bit disturbing - surely that's the far distant future, not a real date that's relevant to anything today, right? :blink:

[chunkymonkey]

yeah that is a scary thought. 2004 doesn't sound so futuristic but put the 10 in there and it hits you.


gave in and put the air on. It's not supposed to be this hot at 11pm.

lots to get ready for tomorrow's mail

printer out of ink :angry:

[siafu]

wow. that's pretty far into the future. maybe you should plan a global trek for that year, so it marks something awesome.

unless that's the year the martians arrive for scholarly discourse.

i am so utterly sorry i didn't check my email today until 8.

[Lilac]

There's a wonderous thunder and lighting storm going on right now. I'm watching through my bay windows as I type.

I tried posting a new pic on the "show us your mug" thread...but I'm such a dolt (or maybe it's because I'm overly tired) I just can't seem to make it work. Oh well. (I was playing with my new scanner)

I don't want to go to work tomorrow!

[Sirius]

my driver's license expires 01/15/2037

i consider myself pretty responsible, but don't you think the odds are pretty good i'll lose it between now and then...

and won't that picture i took in 1999 not quite match the 60 year old who gets pulled over in 2034?

[siafu]

sirius, that was super funny.

are you planning on starting to collect dui's when you turn 59.5?

i'm making beans and rice for dinner

[Lilac]

It's pouring down rain so I'm going to get offline and snuggle into bed.

I love to sleep during a rainstorm.

It lulls me to sleep!!!!!!!



Sweet Dreams everyone!

[Larrissa]

when did it get so late?!!

will my morning go well?

are plane/bomb jokes still unacceptable?

[Larrissa]

time passes, spent 5 entire minutes reading the Q part of the dictionary, trying to find a word to beat sirius with in scrabble

on the way for water, found a huge black bird foot in the hallway, figured the cats found it somewhere, but nooooo. a while later i go in the bedromm and scream because had i finished that step, i would have stepped on a big dead grackle. whew

sleep? sleep? how can i find you again? i didnt even have any cappicino today! just a cup of waiting room coffee! oh come on, i didnt do anything to you

[tanagee]

The other day I was reading the liner notes of my Patsy Cline CD and I 'thought hmmm...a great deal of musicians in the 50's & 60's died in plane crashes...which made me wonder what the # of plane crash deaths vs the # who died from drug overdoses.

24 drug overdoses or abuse vs 17 from plane/helicopter crashes. statistics courtesy of deadoraliveinfo.com (http://deadoraliveinfo.com) (and that's only the 'famous' ones)

and while I was there it surprised me to learn that artists that seemed 'old' died younger than me. Buddy Holly 22, Otis Redding: 26, Hank Williams Sr: 29, Jim Croce: 30, Patsy Cline: 30, Bon Scott: 33, Charlie Parker: 34.

Bonus:
More facts: 13 musicians died in car accidents, 12 were murdered, 17 commited suicide.

[bluecrayon]

The list of artists of all kinds that have died young could probably fill an entire thread...


I am spinning around the forums alone, rattling my fingers, and sliding around barefoot into all the boxes! I have bumped up everything in sight and my name is totally ubiquitous (if only for a few minutes!)

I am feeling pink, not blue -- and everything is shining along the road I'm about to take...which is just another patch of my life, afterall.

[Rivanya]

I'm still in love with my exboyfriend, who I am convinced is my soulmate. I think he needs time to explore life, but in the end, we are meant to be together. And if you met me, you'd know i'm not diluted or strangely neurotic.

I love french foreign films.

I've had strep throat for a month, and I can't get it to go away.

1. that sounds like something i would've said 5 years ago. :)

2. and now he agrees. :wub:

3. i'm slightly neurotic and, although not diluted, i do sometimes delude myself. ;)

1. I'm glad I'm not the only one
2. That brings a certain degree of solace
3. My mom dilutes herself daily

[Larrissa]

i am in the airport using this funky public computer to waste some time and say hello

hello!!

my cat is so sedated his eyes wont stay open
:)

[zanna]

i've got the car wash organized.

now all i've got to do is hope i can get enough people to show up and that the weather is in favor of us performing our duty.

didn't do all my government work ..i'm afraid of going to next period. :ph34r:

[Cuilanië]

Have a safe flight, Larrissa! Best wishes for this new chapter of your life. :hug: :)

- I stayed up really late, then spent the wee hours of the morning on the phone... :wub:

- As a result, I got up maybe half an hour ago. I need to go make coffee now. :rolleyes:

- I might have mentioned this before, but having the computer between my bed and the bedroom door is kinda counter-productive...

[zanna]

hey larrissa!

hey hey!

see me!? good luck dear!

[nymphette]

1: hurrah for larrissa!!! moving is such a big thing :o but i know you are doing what's best for YOU!!!!

2: bluecrayon- how many more tests??? :( i'm so anxious, i can't imagine how you feel waiting!!!!!

3: tana- i checked out that site, once upon a time, because of my morbid curiosity.... <_< i forget though- is that the one with EVERYONE on it???? hm.... if i have any 'extra' time today i should go and check it out.... gimme a break from my newspaper obits... <_<

[Cuilanië]

- I'm wondering why they have to do so many tests on cb... When I had my own lump, all it took was one examination by my doctor, one ultrasound and one biopsy to determine what it was... So I'm worried. :(

- All in all, I'm feeling much more cheerful today.

- I woke up too late to go to the Canadian embassy. They close at four pm.

[siafu]

***there's a swear word in this post.






















i feel like a punk for not waiting by my phone for the temp agency to call me with a shitty job assignment.

i guess that's ok. i'm doing a project for church that is nonpaid but better than calling people and trying to get them to do surveys. we are doing a take on tibetan prayer flags...flags for peace. and since it was my idea i'm putting the papers and packets together.

when i have all the packets together, i will probably offer the opportunity to this community as well. yay for a little overlap.

ps. good luck, larrissa! :hug: :wave:

[nymphette]

1: THEY say we are to get up to 28 cm of snow today...... <_< that's almost a foot of snow.. in may............

2: who the hell are THEY anyways??? and why do THEY get to dictate?????

3: i am waatching jurassic park with julian..... he loves movies that start with 'j'..... like his name.... he's a silly goose!!!

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i got mail!

2 one bowl of soup just isn't enuf for lunch

3 i think i'll go enjoy some sun outside in a little while

[medeous]

1. i don't have anything to say.

2. i want to post anyway.

3. i apologize to those who are peeved by useless posts.

[siafu]

nah medeous, i loved it.

this post is going to be much the same.

do you want my fernando botero atc, medeous?

[medeous]

sure, i'd love your fernando botero atc.

i will send you an ATC in exchange.

would you like to suggest a theme, siafu, or shall i surprise you?

[Cuilanië]

- I'm eating chocolate.

- I don't mind pointless posts... This one's pretty pointless too.

- I remember the race to inflate the post counts... :P

[siafu]

oh, i'll love a surprise, medeous.

i wonder where i stuck the cordless phone.

maybe heidi stuck it somewhere and i don't have anything to worry about.

[Cuilanië]

- I'm making horrible typos.

- My fingers are cold.

- My roommate just came home to drop some stuff off and take a shower...

[zanna]

only 10 more days of high school for me!

then i'm off to college.

everythings gotten so crazy. :huh:

[kittymao]

Tomorrow is my last day of college. and the day after is my last day of life in ths house. and the day after that is my first day living with my Rudy. So many things all happening at once. I feel as if by sitting her and typing I'm making a feeble attempt at stopping my life from moving on.

I know that's not true, though. Nervousness HELPS me to move on. It makes me feel like an artist- a grown up. It's just where I am as I type that makes me feel as if I am stalling.

So- I am going to get up and step away from the machine, and let my own new world sweep me away from the slow, useless one I'm momentarily bogged in. All will be well, for no one will control my life anymore. No one but me.

[medeous]

my left thigh hurts a bit. not the muscle or the bone, but just the skin. i went to the restroom and checked, but there's nothing there and no visible sign of irritation. i think someone is poking a voodoo doll.

i need a haircut. i don't know how i want it cut. maybe a bob, so i can feel louise brooks-ish.

4

[gwensmom]

Good luck to zanna and kittymao who are stepping out into the world!

I wish I could start over and do that again.

Things would be different!

[Sirius]

Yeah! The doll works!

Must go back to homework.


Lots to do

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i put film in my nice camera. my dad's old one. the one older than i am.

2 i took some pictures, and will take more, soon. the lily of the valley will be out in a day or two, and a whole bunch of other things too.

3 i lifted my hand from my lap to type a third thing, and banged my hand on the desk.

[siafu]

ow alison. sorry about that.

sometimes exacting people exasperate me. i'm sure it's mutual.

i'm home today, relatively guilt free.

[chibibluebird]

It's May 11 and it's SNOWING.

I started my 'summer'job at a cookie shop this morning...at 6:15.

I bought a new hairbrush today, but didn't have enough money for a comb, too. :D

[Cuilanië]

- It's been a while since I've seen snow in May.

- It's been a while since I've needed a comb or a brush.

- That last might change. We'll see.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i just unearthed nymphette's granola bar recipe she posted for me a few weeks ago... i am going to use it soon... next week...?

2 burgers for dinner!

3 i should call a couple friends tonight.

[zanna]

already ate some roman noodles that i suppose was dinner.

i'm procrastinating about cleaning up my room.

i only got one piece of mail today ..and it was junk. humph. :angry:

[nymphette]

1: mmmmmm.. granola bars.... i have to get honey tonight so i can make some!!!

2: while discussing 'the past' with my friend ian (on my calgary trip) he said something about me being goth back then...... :huh: uh... hm.... i never thought of myself as goth, i just liked to wear black.... <shrug> shows how people tend to make assumptions though, by how people dress, etc....

3: i wasn't goth.

[chunkymonkey]

crap mail :angry:

telephone rings + me answering= complain complain complain :rolleyes:

I dunno, 6 days now. It seems longer :(

[Cuilanië]

- Aww -- hugs to Veronica. Distance is not easy. :(

- I just had a snacky-type supper of sorts. It's all Sirius' fault for mentioning grilled cheese sandwiches.

- I'm also having a vegetable soup, so I guess I'll be OK.

[zanna]

i'm bored bored bored.

at least i'm not like yesterday ..the funk hasn't gotten control of me yet.

i guess the only thing i'm looking forward to tonight is 'american idol'. sigh.

[Sirius]

my shirt is a pain today...it keeps riding up so the V-collar is at my neck.

i have a grilled-cheese recipe tacked to my bulletion board at work.

brian thought he was very funny for looking it up, scanning it and faxing it to me because i burnt a grilled-cheese sandwich the other day....


bonus: i try not to make any mistakes around brian or my family because they do not let me live them down easily....

[tanagee]

I :wub: grilled cheese sandwiches. I burn them a lot because I let them cook just one more minute longer than I should have.

I am happy my first LMAO is filling up well on the main page...I think I am scaring away all the pre-members with my "don't sign up if you're going to be a jerk" clause.

I should probably take some chiken out of the freezer to defrost for dinner but that would require just too much energy.

[Cuilanië]

- Tomorrow I'm going to visit my ex's parents.

- I may or may not have computer access there, so I may or may not be around sometime during the evening.

- That soup was good, but I burned my throat with it. :rolleyes:

I had a friend who referred to me as Goth back in the day...and I wasnt Goth, either!

I'm a steamy sweatball right now. I was out working around the yard and I can feel the sweat rivulets rolling down my back as I type.

I also smell like gasoline.

[siafu]

i just have to say...there's after five black, man-i look skinny black, my blue pants are dirty black, and goth black. i vote for all of them.

i'm going to the grossery tomorrow. why? to buy a bus pass.

anyone got a good riddle?

[Cuilanië]

- <points> I see Dalmaney! :)

- I'm going to bed.

- Good night!

[Dalmaney]

1. Today I made some buns and some cinnamon buns, and they are delicious.

2. I am thoroughly enjoying my planned unemployment, despite the threatening snowclouds.

3. Yesterday I drove two hours (each way) to pick up the ExBoy and give him a ride back here.

[Dalmaney]

1. Hiya, all. I came to use the school's internet when I got tired of bad TV.

2. The road trip was with the Boy, so it was fun.

3. I am in looooove and it's a beautiful day.

[tanagee]

re·dux
adj.
Brought back; returned. Used postpositively.

I'm happy to learn that I used redux correctly.

I had a fear I was wrong and everyone was making fun of me behind my back.

[Dalmaney]

1. It's time for me to go home and eat some supper (which probably shouldn't be more cinnamon buns).

2. I am tired, but should stay awake until bedtime and try to be a little less nocturnal.

3. People keep telling me how good I look... I think it's because I went from being mega-stressed to utterly happy in the time it took to finish my last exam.

[Larrissa]

hello hello, i want all of you to know, nervousness saved my life from myself. im serious.

happy happy and starting a new phase

the lack of privacy here is a little startling though

[zanna]

i just got a series of collect calls from a man insisting to talk with a leslie, rhonda, justin, etc.

it was very strange indeed. he finally talked to me through a person to person call through directory assistance and demanded to speak to john, who is my dad. i recognized that name, so i took the call. i told him i was his daughter and he said "well i've never spoke to that daughter before."

he spent the next few mintues trying to convince me that john c. of warner robins was his brother who was married to leslie and had 5 kids and that i wasn't his daughter. he sounded like some crack addict and i think i finally convinced him that he had the wrong family. but he said it was the only john c. in the phone book and his brother was in the phone book. so therefore, i must wrong. wtf? i guess he finally gave up after calling me 7 times and told me the last time he called to "have a pleasant night." kind of creepy. :unsure:

[zanna]

well jesus christ.

he called again.

i wonder how many more times i'll have to listen to his creepy voice tonight ..

[Larrissa]

ooh weird phone calls ... creepiness unmatched by anything else

i leave my nness mail in the nv after opening it for a few days out of some strange respect

my little sister GREW so much in three years. i didnt recognize her at first

[zanna]

hey i've got a question out there for anyone listening..

has there ever been a picture chain game here ..where someone posts something they want a picture of, say, a dog playing fetch, and then the next person goes out and finds it on the internet and posts the picture itself or a link to the picture and then lists something they want to see a picture of?

i remember a forum i used to be really active in had this chain game and it was a whole lot of fun, but since i've only recently started posting in this one, i was just curious. so ..huh huh huh? :poke: do ya know what i'm talking about?

That sounds like fun, Zanna! Cyber-scavenger hunt! Why don't you start up another chain game using that theme!

I changed my avater, briefly.

<-------Chicken lovin' goat girl, in the flesh. (okay, well....over and UP!)

alright then ..i'll start it up tomorrow when i'm not so sleepy i'd probably type things wrong. :P

yep.

I scratched through my bass violin lesson tonight --

earlier I met my friend at the beach and we collected a bunch of driftwood for my art class

My 3rd graders and I will pull the wood apart and look at the patterns and the colors and twirl the threads around our fingers and smell it and twist it all into something glorious -- :)

[hammerquill]

I'm tired from another day of drywalling (or should that be 'dryceilinging'?).

My eyes and lips and skin and throat are dry from the dust of redwood and fiberglass and gypsum.

I'm glad I don't do carpentry or the like for a living, though I like being able to do it myself.

[medeous]

i'm glad i don't do carpentry or the like for a living, though i'd like someone else to do it for me.

lost another pound, even after the mashed potatoes: -9 so far.

i'm approaching the weekend with eager trepidation, if that's possible. i can't wait, but i dread saying all the stuff that i've decided must be said... complete honesty can be terrifying, but oh what a relief once it's all confessed. unless of course it ruins everything. :duh:

[Lilac]

I have a serious case of insomnia tonight. I was laying in bed for over an hour and still wide awake, so I thought I'd just get up and see if anyone was playing.

I also ate a peanutbutter and jelly sandwich.

Now I want another, but no can do!!!!

[siafu]

i took a long nap at five o'clock.

now i'm making soup.

some movie with denzel washington and annette benning fighting terrorist cells in brooklyn is on in the living room. it's utterly weird.

Seems to me that anything starring Denzel Washington and Annette Benning would have to be strange.

Does anybody have any cure for insomnia!?

I have to get up in less than 4 hours for work! ACK!!!

1 some odd dreams last night...

2 yesterday i found an old letter from a friend of mine who moved away from my neighbourhood when we were 9 or 10... it's the cutest thing... i'm going to mail her a copy.

i'm off to literature class ..be back in about an hour. i'm out. :peace:

I didn't dream last night, I took tylenol with codiene and slept like a baby

I know! I was the first one to post on your new game! Goolgling is awesome

I have literature class at 9. We're reading Grendel.

[reddirtrose]

procrastinating again

going to go outside and mow and rototill

then when it gets hot I'll come into my studio and get all caught up

[medeous]

1. argh! a black pen exploded in my purse!

2. luckily, the purse is black.

3. tonight i will clean out the pig sty that is my car.

[bluecrayon]

I woke up to find a message from him that transcended the box!

his words alone are the words that can start my heart singing...

yikes. :wub:

[zanna]

bluecrayon ..when i read a lot of the things you post here about him, it reminds me a lot of what is happening to me.

i can always relate to what you type. :)

and i've noticed most of the sentences you make up in some of the games are geared toward him and you ..your such a romantic ..i'm always wishing you luck and hoping that everything works out for you! :D

[sarahkate]

1. Hi everyone! I miss you guys. It felt strange to not sign onto N'ness yesterday. I have been sick since Saturday (allergies to some plant in my yard I think). I stayed home from work yesterday & I am staying home today too.

2. I feel guilty when I stay home sick, even in a case like this when I really am sick. Especially when I do productive things when I should be at work. Yesterday I cleaned the kitchen and did laundry and today I might go out in the yard & plant some flower seeds. I think I would feel less guilty being home if I were so sick that I was stuck in bed all day. Ah well.

3. There is nothing here to eat for breakfast & I'm hungry. I suppose I should go to the grocery store. It's weird going to the grocery store on a weekday when the customers are mostly elderly people & mothers with babies. It makes me feel slightly out of place.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 frgh... so the lens i've been using... i just noticed it's scratched. which is a real pissoff. it's not a big scratch. but it's there.

2 i'm almost done that roll of film.

3 hopefully the pix will either be unaffected by the scratch, or affected in an area that can be trimmed off/cropped... if the pix are any good to start with.

[picasso]

1. my dad is here visiting

2. i love pasta

3. i love american idol

[Larrissa]

i have to fight this urge to curl up into myself and rest

i came here to live not hide

i suppose i will go start now

[gwensmom]

Go, Larrissa- go out and LIVE!

Gwen is home sick today, so I am at home too.

I wish she would take a nap so i could take one with her.

[Lilac]

Yes, GO LARRISSA! Get out there and LIVE!!!!

Here's hoping Gwensmom get that nap!

I have a bellyache and think I might be developing dreaded diareah. (Just had a stressful meeting with PennDot and stress always does this to me!) :wacko:

[zanna]

killing time ..

no ones here to play. i'm sad. sniff. :(

but ..i'm am excited, though!! i found out my favorite band is coming to atlanta in august! yeh!!! :yay:

[Astabeth]

I wish I knew who zanna's favorite band is.

We are going to Atlanta this weekend.

Sometimes I feel old. I don't think I am, but sometimes I feel like I am.

Astabeth

[zanna]

modest mouse!

modset mouse!

modest mouse! ..happens to be my favorite band :D

[Curlita]

Modest Mouse is a fronted by a guy who grew up in Issaquah, WA... where I just happen to be the museum director. One of my professional goals is to get them to donate something to the museum.

I am very cold, and I am cranky.

My psychotic former employee who I fired in February called me to tell me she'd heard I was pregnant and wanted to know how I was doing. Ick! I feel unclean. Hello, I DON'T want to talk to you! I FIRED you! We're NOT friends!

[zanna]

that's interesting curlita ..

damn me and all my free time today.

i've got two new chain games in mind i would really like to start ..but am hesitant. i suppose i'll wait and see if i still feel like it later on tonight. anyone feel like two more? hmm..

[medeous]

i'm fidgety
i'm taking friday off
i'd like to get my nails done

[reddirtrose]

the rototiller had a bolt fall off and it quit working

I raked through the dirt and found the bolt

my neighbor helped me put it back together

[siafu]

good job, reddirtrose! and yay, nice neighbor

i'm tired. i make up diseases i can attribute this to all the time. today's is anemia. i'm probably not anemic. i'm probably just bummed out about my job situation. <_<

tonight's dinner is tasty beets (pickled beets) and something. chicken... B)

[thunderstorm_19]

1 no posts for an hour! not good enuf! hahah

2 bored and cold, will go outside again

3 mean little knot in my shoulder

[thunderstorm_19]

1 ok so siafu posted between my noticing that no one had posted in an hour, and my actually making a post myself

2 oh well

3 oh voyager... haven't seen this in a while

[bluecrayon]

bumping frenzy!!! Tape my hands before I bump again!!

I must be twirling through the pent up energy from still another biopsy on my neck --

cat scan next week... :unsure:

[mejaka]

1. I just received a PHRENNIE in the mail! I had no idea I was even nominated, since...

2. Life and work have kept me away from Nness for some months now.

3. Work is new. It's temporary and part-time, involves garden plants, and will buy me one of these (http://www.dreammakerspas.com/xspa.html).

[tanagee]

My Grammy had another "stroke" yesterday. She woke up from her nap unable to walk...they don't think it's a occlusive stroke (where an artery is blocked) but that she has been bleeding in her brain for a while. The'll know more after her MRI.

Me and Megan went by the hospital after class and she was off having tests...probably said MRI.

I left her a happy note, a picture of Megan I had in my bag, and the fingerpainting Megan had made in class today.

bonus:
It aggrivates me that I keep writing down my mom's cell # on a post it or something and instead of writing it down in a phone book or saving it in my cel I lose the papers. :angry:

[Cuilanië]

- I feel weird, not having posted all day.

- I just set up my net account on this computer and am using the dreaded IE just this once.

- This is for medeous: :crossed:

[Cuilanië]

- More chain games are always appreciated. :D

- I miss him.

- The rail workers are having a strike tomorrow, and guess who'll need five hours to get back to Paris? Yup. Good ole me.

[chunkymonkey]

:hug: to anyone that needs one

I hate waking up late cause I miss all the facts of the day

I'm listening to a christmas mix cd. :wacko:

[bluecrayon]

I'm taking the hug, although I wish the little yellow guy was more my type! :D

I miss my him, too. :(

my fingers, toes, hair, eyes and spirit are ALL crossed for medeous...

[zanna]

i really miss him too :(

my evening is all frazzled because he didn't call or message me this afternoon when i got home from school.

i wonder what happend, and if he'll even give an excuse. :(

[Astabeth]

I'm glad I don't miss anyone.

I'm sad for those who do miss someone.

My husband made spaghetti and it smells good.


Astabeth

[Cuilanië]

- I like Lilac's new avatar. :)

- The keyboard is loud... I'm the only one awake here.

- I'll be going to bed soon.

[kittymao]

I gots ta get ready for my last class at school. I came home during the 7 hours instead of staying cause- well, it'd be a crock to stay when I still have things to do.

I feel artsy, but all the things I need to do aren't artsy enough. And teh one I want to do requires an oven that WORKS. Well, unless I use magisculpt... that might work.

Herm. Cheesesteaks rock. yum.

[siafu]

i made the smoke alarm go off. the pan stuck to the burner. i pulled the burner out of the hole. and it was still stuck to the pan. i ate the food anyway, picking out the burned bits.

as i was leaving someplace, someone gave me a two hole punch i really wanted. then, i got in the taxi and got all queasy. so i forgot the whole hole punch in the back of the taxi. i am going to call the cab company every hour until the dude calls me about it.

all this crazy mr bean drama makes me tired. well, it could be the anemia.

[medeous]

i'm tired. i make up diseases i can attribute this to all the time. today's is anemia. i'm probably not anemic. i'm probably just bummed out about my job situation.

maybe it's a liver fluke.

i'm actually feeling pretty laid back now, but i appreciate all the crossed bits and pieces.

cut my hair cut...it looks just like it did, but better. i'm not so adventurous with my hair in my old age.

[siafu]

a liver fluke is perfect. i will have that tomorrow.

he says the whole punch is not in his cab.

*sigh*

[bluecrayon]

I am restless and spinning all around my head and heart...

Love is this maddening drug and I keep needing more of it...

I don't like surrendering so much of my control.

[zanna]

i've had a few alcoholic beverages this evening [maybe] ..

due to my frustration with him and our situation ..

do you think i'm wrong? sigh.

[siafu]

you're not wrong. you are right as rain. but should you drink when you are bleu? perhaps not.

sorry you're frustrated.

relationships are sometimes dicey but then again, sometimes quite cool.

[bluecrayon]

drinking won't change the landscape, only give you a headache and maybe make you do a few things that will look silly in the morning's light...

what men do is activity -- they do not sit at home thinking about love.

I guess we need to emulate them on this -- maybe it's time for a bike ride.

[chunkymonkey]

7, almost 8 days.

I'm getting worried because I know she's making this to be a disaster in her head.

but I won't ask because what if I'm wrong and this is no big deal to her.

obviously I'd rather be confused than crushed

[medeous]

my oranges haven't been all that great lately
but there is no summer fruit yet
and i'm not in an apple mood

[bluecrayon]

up all night talking with him...

I think we veered off course.

I forgot to log out and so bluecrayon has been parked here all night...

[Larrissa]

it rained. i love the rain.

no, vengence will be mine!!

stupid cramps

[Rivanya]

My shirt is too tight, but I think it looks good

My strep hasn't gone away yet.

My hair is still wet.

[Larrissa]

reading about pissed people because of crappy mailart is a little stressful, even though so few peices of my art have been sent out

i cant belive its may and sooo very cold

i feel bold, going to look at the bus schedules and take a journey! in the cold

2 that boy. since he phoned last week, has left several "hey" msgs on msn (always at times when i am not here or in a position to respond), but nothing more. i told him we needed to talk about the real issues behind our argument, but no progress so far.

3 dad's re-finishing (??) the doorstep... in that granite finish stuff... hmm

this is one thread I have been avoiding, the whole idea of labeling other people's contributions as crappy really disturbs me...

and so does the lmao where people are supposed to send atcs they've received from other people that "suck" --

in my opinion, this violates the spirit of nervousness and just makes me want to roll into the bump and away from all participation in the mailart part of this neighborhood.

[medeous]

i'm wearing a pink stripey shirt, pink stripey socks, pink lip gloss and pink nail polish. i like pink.

my hair looks funny...definitely bed head.

sometimes when i get really giddy on the inside, i shake my hands so hard and fast that it hurts. occasionally this is accompanied by a high pitch squeal and some baby-step running in place.

[Curlita]

J hugged the side of my head this morning and I think he may have bunged up my glasses.

I woke up at 4:30 AM and I am way too tired now, and it's time to shower and go to work.

I feel like a fraudulent slack ass. I have not participated in any actual nervousness crafty projects in a long time.

[zanna]

i drank a very large cup of coffee this morning.

i'm dreading that i did ..i'm all shaky and feel like blah.

i used to could handle that amount of caffeine ..i suppose since i hadn't drank any in a while, it did me in. please go away caffeine jitters!! :wacko:

[Larrissa]

when i wake up to pee in the middle of the night, i usually dont look in the mirror. last night i did, and my forehead had creases in it, you know those two little vertical lines between eyebrows? i guess i was dreaming hard

my family is a bag of nuts, and they think i am the only crazy one

ctrl+v game on sisters computer = feelings disturbed

[Cuilanië]

- I finally made it home. It wasn't hard, just long... The first leg of the trip back was not even by train; they had BUSES to take passengers to Chartres, and then a train to Paris. I hate public transportation strikes. No one even knows why they were on strike this time. Sigh.

- My trip to the country was restful. I ate too much. I saw lots of greenery and birds, mostly magpies and crows. I saw a bird steal dry food from a dog's bowl. I saw flowers in bloom. I took a bath (can't do that in my tub-less apartment).

- While I was stuck in Chartres for two hours I visited the cathedral and the Centre international du vitrail (International Stained Glass Centre), featuring among other things a few 1:1 scale copies of some of the cathedral's stained glass windows.

Bonus: I still think that five hours to get home (instead of the normal two) is a bit much.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 have i told anyone lately how much i hate that he is able to get to me like this...

2 the latest update on the stupid boy is in the rant thread (all i have to say is...)

3 dad's yelling at the cat...

[medeous]

i like cats
i like pink
i like babies
therefore, i like pink baby cats.

[Curlita]

Who wouldn't like a pink baby cat??

I'm trying to talk myself out of eating my lunch early.

I'm also trying to talk myself out of going out on a chocolate run.

[chunkymonkey]

sometimes when i get really giddy on the inside, i shake my hands so hard and fast that it hurts. occasionally this is accompanied by a high pitch squeal and some baby-step running in place.

gotta go pack.

YEA.

took a walk

going to take a nap

inner-ousities should have been inner-osities i think, but too lazy to change it

[chunkymonkey]

I'm in a very vagina mood today

I think I'll start a vagina themed lmao

People don't say vagina enough

[zanna]

virginia.

oops ..i meant VAGINA.

last night i was watching an old episode of 'friends', the one where ross is at his apartment with this lady [i forgot her name] and they begin fooling around and she tells him to talk dirty to her. he gets all frazzled and the first thing that pops out of his mouth is 'vulva'. lol it was hilarious! :yay:

[medeous]

i'm not coming back to work tomorrow
it's raining
i still haven't cleaned my car

[Curlita]

Ooo, oooh! I want to join Veronica's vagina LMAO.

I wish I could afford one of the fancy schmancy vagina... dolls? I want to call them "stuffed vaginas" but that's not quite right. Vagina models? Does anyone know what I'm talking about? I tried searching for them and keep winding up with other weird stuff.

My last RF will make for some interesting search engine hits.

[siafu]

and so does the lmao where people are supposed to send atcs they've received from other people that "suck" --

i wouldn't do that because i'd consider that mean, but the main point of my post is that sometimes i feel that i can tell a lack of effort. and if i'm getting upset about it, then i should take a break from atc's. i definitely feel a particular way about getting a return that looks scribbled. now, i can always find good things about it (wow...color combination!) but that's not the same as noting that someone tried.
*shrug* i wouldn't insult someone directly, but i might say, man, x happened, and i felt y.

i'm supposed to be getting new bus tickets today. my liver fluke might prevent me.

tonight i'm going to the independent publishing resource center.

[Cuilanië]

- I'm tired and kind of bluish grey.

- Will miss kittymao and hope she comes back soon. Hope the move goes well!

- I miss my late-night walks in Montréal. Those are not advisable here.

[zanna]

i chatted for a bit with my guy online :wub: ..told me he spent yesterday applying for jobs, a lot of which were in atlanta! yeh! i so hope he will get a job there because that's where i have to move for college! [i know i'm so selfish!]

my friend called me and invited me to come eat with them ..yeh! something to do!

i'm ready for the surviour thing coming on tonight at 8. yep. GO RUPERT ..WIN THE MILLION! :D

[bluecrayon]

I'm dangling above serious fatigue -- an hour and a half of sleep in me is like taking acid -- I am starting to trip.

except I can't give in to it, because I have the kids home soon and the evening to climb into and I cannot close my eyes for even a daydream...

Like anything else we judge, effort is subjectively evaluated, I think. I just don't know looking at any one ATC I've received what the level of interest, time, talent, or effort was that got the thing to my mailbox. I accept all of them as expressions of a person and try to think what that person is like...

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i went out with my sis

2 i bought 2 tank tops $12 each

3 there was a chemical spill/fire from a tanker truck a couple hours ago, on the same road where the shooting was last week...

[chunkymonkey]

Unvitation aunt sent me an invitation after my mom made a big deal out of it that has an rsvp date of the 8th. Special note put inside saying she "couldn't possibly have my wedding without you" :rolleyes: Got it today and am instructed to reply by the 14th. WTF?

I wish my mom had never said anything to me about this. I was perfectly happy with not being invitited and not knowing I wasn't invited.

Will be spending my night writing a heartfelt letter to someone who quite frankly doesn't deserve one. <_<

[mejaka]

1. Current hummingbird visiting my feeder is a black-chinned. Wonderful little creature. And the rufies aren't even chasing him away.

2. Guy came in today, big tough-looking dude, who remembered asking me about flowers two weeks ago. Well, not asking, just sort of asking where they were. Among them were columbine. I said, "Oh, hummingbirds love columbine." He remembered that and came back today to find me and ask me more questions about what hummers like. Then he bought a bunch of my recommendations.

3. It fascinates me when men come in looking for flowers. There are a few, like the owner of Clark House, who don't surprise me because they are that kind of gay man who is so very aware of what is beautiful. There are many who nose around a bit but admit that the final say on flowers rests with their wives, or who sit to the side and just wait for her to load her cart. But there are other men who come in unaccompanied, for whom the quest for beautiful flowers seems incongruous. The hummingbird man in #2 was one of those.

My chiropractor x-rayed my neck today because he suspected that the disks might be deteriorating. They weren't. :yay:

She has turned her rescued kitten lj into a blog (http://www.livejournal.com/users/crazycatladymel/).

Let's all go tell her to come back and play with us.

I finally uploaded some new photos, but it is still slow going. (http://www.calsk8.com/zeitgeist/March2004x3/atcs.jpg)

I did my first college level lecture for an Art History Class yesterday and again today, and I had Powerpoint images of Alpaca's and ibiddy-boo's art projected on the big screen!

And I mentioned cieart too! (http://www.calsk8.com/zeitgeist/March2004x3/cieart.JPG)

[Lilac]

My son has been driving me insane all day! He's been extremely clingy all day long.

My nerves are on edge!

I wish I was tired so that I could go to bed, sleep right away and not lay there and THINK.

[amylyn]

i am eating b-b-q corn nuts

i got my old job back

i am reading a great book---Th e Secret Life of Bees, by Sue Monk Kidd

[zanna]

i should have layed down in bed about 30 minutes ago ..

tomorrow i've got to leave earlier because it's our senior breakfast and we'll be getting out caps and gowns, i do believe.

we also get yearbooks tomorrow ..yeh! i'm so excited! but i'm off to bed. i must make myself go to sleep. g'night all!

[Larrissa]

i bought a padlock for theshed. there is this 18 year old guy coming to stay with us for a month, ive never met him. apparently a year ago he work at the restaraunt with my mom and he needed a place to stay, they made friends and now hes coming for a vacation form california. i heard he breaks everything he touches, nd i just majorly purged what i own, im feeling all paranoid about it. so the things are going to be locked in the shed :rolleyes:

went on four walks today, i didnt realize i had become so homebound. it was stressful going out by myself. i will get over it quickly.

first fake nail to be shed? the left thumbnail

[Lilac]

It's good to see Larrissa!!!! :wave:

One of the guys at work gave me a Wasabi peanut today. I'd never tasted them before and didnt realize how uniquely horrendous they were. As soon as I popped it in my mouth, my gag reflex took control of my body and I spit all over the conference room floor. Not very professional of me.

My God! Is it really almost midnight???

[Larrissa]

no its only 10:19 :lol:

nice to see you too, miss lilac

im a nut, so bite me

[bluecrayon]

I hope it's nice to see ME, too! :D

I'm spinning through blowback from venturing into the rants and raves again.

I was going to post in the thread again but I'd have taken sides and that wouldn't help.

I'm fine but my email account feels majorly ignored.

Incase you all didn't know this... these forums are the keeper of my sanity. :kiss:

[siafu]

i guess i know what you mean, blue. maybe i'm a bit more suspicious than ithought. something to consider anyway.

do you know...i forgot to unplug the coffee maker. the whole time i was out, i was having visions of disaster.

i have a ton of things to do, and i just want to sit here for a minute.

ps. curlita, don't feel bad...just play and talk to us. that's cool.

aw, chunky! I really do believe it's possible to take part in a discussion here, even a raging rant, without taking sides --

I sort of twirl through my sanity here, too.

but I don't think I'm ranting and raving again for awhile -- I'm just gonna stay right here. :)

[chunkymonkey]

I wanted to take a side... it was the reason I wanted to add more.

I'm glad that topic was started because a lot of things in there needed to be said.

I wrote the email. Oh no no I didn't reply to one, wrote it. I had to. I couldn't take the silence anymore.

[medeous]

i harbor a secret dark fantasy that my house will burn down while i have the kid and dog out, so i won't have to clean it and i can have the insurance company build be a new one with an extra bathroom and a more convenient layout.

with my luck, it would burn just enough to drag the entire fire department over to see what a mess it is.

things that felt so very important to discuss just a week ago are seeming rather trivial now that it's almost time to have the discussion. head in the sand...? me??!

[Larrissa]

Cicadas! I love them and hope so much that they decided to take a vacation up here in colorado. the first cicida of the year always got a journal entry for me

woke up at 5:30am to go to the bathroom, and theres a nice note saying im supposed to wake up my sister for school in an hour.

miss lilac, maybe you could tape record some of the little kings making their beautiful noise and trade with me for something

- Hugs, Larrissa. It's a strange and wonderful thing to rediscover yourself after a stifling relationship, and I wish you all the best! :)

- Sometimes I wish I'd found Nervousness earlier, as in when my marriage was finally falling apart. Might have helped a lot...

- Yep, we're all in therapy here... :rolleyes: ;)

[Cuilanië]

- I just made coffee. Then I realise that today being the first day of my period, it's the one day of the month I shouldn't have coffee. Darn.

- I think I'll drink my coffee anyway. I made a whole pot.

- Then I have to get out of here and finally go to the Canadian embassy.

1 i can't actually remember for sure if that was dad or someone else... but you get the idea

2 i have some ATCs need making...

once the exmotherinlaw was on vacation, so we were hanging out at her house swimming. decided to bake a frozen pizza, set the timer, and forgot about it. really forgot about it, and the timer was all stange and i had set it for 18 hours instead of 18 minutes. we went somewhere, being young, dumb and stoned, probably for food, and realized on the way home the pizza was still cooking. i thought the house was going to be on fire, it had been hours. but no, it was stinky in there and the pizza was a charcaol slice, but everything was fine.

long story, can you tell i failed english?

i was damn good at math though, learned algebra in fifth grade.
now its like "12+27? let me think"

- My coffee's no good. I don't mean because I shouldn't be drinking it, but just plain not to my taste. The package was a gift my roommate got from someone, and it's too bland even though I measured out a little more than the usualy quantity.

- The kind of coffee I like the least is Columbian. See above.

- The sun is playing hide-and-seek with the clouds.

[sarahkate]

1. Where is Robyn? She hasn't posted in a few days. I miss her! I hope everything is ok with her & the boys.

2. Robyn sent me a very awesome handmade postcard. :wub:

3. I hope Robyn doesn't mind me dedicating these 3 random facts to her. :)

[namelessgirl]

Larrissa is a wonderful nutty PM tag buddy :D

my back actually HURTS from active sex this morning. does this mean i'm getting old? :huh:

i'm toying with the idea of fasting for the day but damn, there is some yummy stuff in the fridge.

[Astabeth]

I wonder if Larissa's son and my daughter are about the same age - she's clingy right now, too.

I wonder if I would like modest mouse...

I wonder if I should post these under "three random 'I wonders'" instead of three random facts

Astabeth

[tanagee]

I just had the new Total Protein cereal and I have to say...YUCK!

I feel very guilty after reading the "crap work" rant thread, I have sent out a few things that I just threw together because I paniced and just wanted to get them done

I wonder if Larissa's son and my daughter are about the same age - she's clingy right now, too.
It took me a while to figure this out cuz I didn't think Larrissa had kids...then I realized she was talking about Lilac. And to answer the question...I think he's around 9 or 10 years old

[Larrissa]

ACK! no kids for me! :eek:

its 9:30, i passed the computer, and thought "why not?"

namelessgirl, you just need to have sex more often, then your back wont hurt :D

[zanna]

wow, i've had hardly any time to get on the computer today while at school. normally i'm constantly on here hoping someone will come play with me.

but we had our senior breakfast and got our caps and gowns this morning ..as well as getting our yearbooks, which makes the whole day hectic, what with all the people running around asking others to sign theirs.

its a fun, busy busy day. i've got a doctors appointment today which i have to leave early for and i forgot all about the fact that there is a going away party tonight for this girl on my soccer team. well ..another friday goes down in the books. but all i wish i could do is spend time with him, which isn't possible. :(

[Larrissa]

im back again.

took a walk

PEONIES :wub:

My MIL pronounces peonies like this: pee-ownies.

Where is Robyn!? Does anyone know? I'm a little concerned.

When I finish decluttering my junk room I want to put an ATC display on the wall like Paul did at Zeitgeist.

[namelessgirl]

Larrissa, I'll pass that along to my husband for sure! HA :D

just took a nap on the couch

heading into town to do errands

1. She did mention something about getting possibly a foot of snow (in May?! Yikes!) so maybe she is snowed in at someone else's house? I hope she will be back soon though.

2. I have cramps. There is not a good thing to be said about cramps.

3. I have a new little friend. His name is Dylan. His family just moved in next door a few weeks ago and we just met them last Saturday. Dylan is in 3rd grade and he is a whirling dervish of questions! Oy! He also insisted that we let him wash our cars so we let him. :P

[Curlita]

The Coming of the Cicadas sounds like a great, dramatic novel or movie.

I think we should start a LMAO of the sounds of summer!

Thank you, Teresa, for exonerating me from my artguilt.

[sarahkate]

~Our network went down for about 30 minutes or more, which meant no internet, no email, and I couldn't even do work because that involves using online databases. The power went out for a few minutes too. I thought maybe they would let us leave work early but no, of course not and now the network is up and the power is back on, though the phones still aren't working.

~I'm very glad it's Friday. Payday! Woohoo!

~N'ness is too quiet today. That's a sad thing. :(

[sarahkate]

~I have decided to use ~ rather than numbers for my 3RF posts.

~The numbers just seem too organized and structured, and I am really not an organized, structured person so it just didn't feel right, but these ~ things, well, those are totally me.

~What are these ~ things called anyway? Do they have a name?

[siafu]

they go over n's in spanish. i don't know what else they do.

how are you feeling, sk?

i'm getting hungry. and much to my great foresight, i have crackers with peanut butter and diet coke. i hope medeous is having super fun.

ps. anytime, curlita. curlita, did you get my postie?

[chunkymonkey]

ask me for anything but patience.

I need new bras... but I hate buying new bras

paper thin roast beef= goood... paper thin walls= baaaad

[sarahkate]

~I feel like I am taking over 3RF - my little buggy avatar is just all over the place on this page!

~I'm feeling better Theresa, thanks! :)

~Oh yes that's right - about the ~ going over the N in Spanish. I should have remembered that since I took 7 years of espanol in school. Aren't they called "tilde" or at least it's pronounced that way? I don't know. I'm not making any sense. I'm non-sensical. It's Friday. La La. Nonsense.

[sarahkate]

~Veronica is so silly.

~I need new bras too. I have a major case of "four boobs" today because this bra is too small (and it's almost brand new! Hmpf!)

~Our new neighbors are ghetto fabulous. The dad drives a big white 80s Caddy. The mom looks like she might not have any teeth? And they don't appear to have jobs, yet they pay more in rent for their house than we do for the mortgage on ours, and they have 3 kids.

[Larrissa]

four boobs?? :rofl: damn

got my boxes from myself today, and a pile of fb's from ashleashea, and pailhead from psychovamp, and a pez dispenser from grindstonefreak :D i love mail

the other songs arent as good as the one song i heard before. oh well

[chunkymonkey]

I love the phrase ghetto fabulous

I'm working on my first art doll.

I hate carpet

~yes, four of 'em! Can you believe it? Would anyone like my extras? :P

~I think we are going to have chinese food for dinner. I can't wait. Hmm.....general tso's chicken.... garlic chicken with broccoli.... or veggie lo mein...oooh I can't decide!

~When I get egg rolls I throw out all of the insides and just eat the "wrapper" dipped in duck sauce/sweet & sour sauce.

Yes, yes! I got it last week. I thought I PMed you to thank you... I'm starting a collection of all my baby-related mail and what not.

The ~ is called a "tilde" I think. That is the way it is pronounced, anyway.

I need new bras too! I've started referring to bras as honker hammocks.

[thunderstorm_19]

- i'm freakin hungry

- i barely ate lunch

- luckily, we are eating early tonight

[bluecrayon]

splitting pieces of driftwood apart for my 3d grade art class

realizing how much I love the smell and texture and shadows of wood

my spirit feels like it spent the night jumping on a trampoline...

[Jesus the Almighty]

why is there no smilie with a halo?


wishing there were more hours in the day. don't blame me, Dad did it.

miss lilac, maybe you could tape record some of the little kings making their beautiful noise and trade with me for something
Little kings? Do you mean the Cicadas, the chickens (although, to the best of my knowledge they are all Queens) or the three hyperactive 10 year old boys presently ransacking my house? I'd gladly record any of the those three for you! :)

I'm assuming you mean the Cicadas. I love them, too and can't wait for the onslaught to begin! My son claims he saw one today, but I doubt it.


I stopped and got gas on my way home from work and drove off with my credit card on the roof of my car. Damn it! It's gone and I've had to call and report it "stolen" so that nobody can pick it up and use it. I'm such a shithead.

[gwensmom]

I used to drive off with the gas cap on the hood. I started keeping extra gas caps in the car for when I did that. Now my gas cap is on a leash so I never lose it.

The grey oppressive weather is driving everyone mad. Gwensdad and I had to eat hot and sour soup tonight to clear our heads.

EEK! I can't find something I need for an lmao and I'm supposed to mail it out tomorrow!

[bluecrayon]

I am stunned by how pretty Lilac is...

alone again as usual on a Friday night --

soon I will be the only one rattling around here... :(

[namelessgirl]

really don't want to clean the kitchen

my fingers are sticky from mod podge

i love the picture scavenger hunt thread!

[bluecrayon]

okay, but I chose to dance here in this distance

so I can't complain

I will just do some art and paint into my solitude.

Thank you, Bluecrayon....but trust me...that is just a really good picture!

I'm glad to see Bluecrayon is here to play tonight. I'm home alone...well, technically alone...My son has two friends over, but they're upstairs playing video games.

Can anyone guess who this bad boy is?

[Curlita]

Our guy, Gruffie! Yay!

I just got back from massive amounts of tasty Thai food.

Now it's time to go read.

[Lilac]

I'm sorry, but I can't keep y eyes open. I'm off to bed.

Goodnight everyone.

Sweet Dreams!

[Superman]

Goodnight Lilac!!

[zanna]

ugh. we've got that car wash i've been organizing this morning.

i don't think i was a very good person to have in charge ..i forgot to remind everyone yesterday about it today and i left the sheet at school with everyone's number so i could call and remind them.

i looked outside and it seems like the weather is going to be working against us ..i'm not sure how many people will show up so i don't even know if we'll have enough to be able to actually wash the cars ..and i don't know how much equipment will be brought like people said they would. ugh again. wish me luck that this doesn't blow, because i'm afraid it will. :(

[Cuilanië]

- Damn cramps

- Damn damn damn cramps

- No coffee today.

[Cuilanië]

- good luck zanna!

- wondering how medeous fares...

- I'm hungry. When stumped for a third fact, that's always a good one... :P

[Larrissa]

gruffie! you are one cute goat

secondhand cigarrette smoke is kicking my ass

[MelangeArtiste]

I hate waking up to the sound of a cat coughing up a furball.

The people who think I am calm and rational have never heard me yelling at idiots on the phone.

I'd like to yell at The Man right now, but he isn't here.

[bluecrayon]

time bending into morning once more and I put my optimisim back on...

dazzling light on the surface of the tree in my yard...

it is something I'd like to have inside me...

[siafu]

*kicking cans* i just missed my stupid ride

i don't feel very good, either about this or at all.

deciding to still go is a big decision.

ps. i hope you feel better soon, eve.

and... go, zanna!

[Dalmaney]

1. I brought the Boy home to meet the parents (and dog and herd of cats), which is pretty signifigant because my parents live a three and a half hour drive from where we do.

2. It was our two-month a couple days ago.

3. I'm still on the farm and he went back to the city to go to a bachelor party... I miss him.

[tanagee]

:'( My egg did not meet a nice boy and settle down.

:( Going to visit my Grammy in the hospital this morning.

:wacko: Have I mentioned how annoying Dora The Explorer is?

Sending wishes for fertility to Tana for the next go-round.

Looking forward to Thai leftovers for lunch.

Looking forward to the weekend!

[gwensmom]

I saw someone in the post office today who looks like Meika

I did not get out of bed until 10:45 today. (Unless you count my getting up at 4:45 a.m. to see why Gwen was yelling.) Therefore I got very little done and my back hurts from lying around too long. But it was fun to get some rest!

Gwensdad is taking me to see Troy tonight and I don't really want to go. I'm not a Brad Pitt fan and don't like gratuitous violence. But he is all pumped (he LOVES gratuitous violence) so I am going. What I really want to see is the next Harry Potter movie.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i bought a dvd "bridget jones' diary"

2 it appears to be in wide screen... hmm... doesn't really matter... i'm DVD incompetent, but it seems with many one can switch between -- anyone know what button to press? the menus and junk are not widescreened... hmm

3 ran various other errands and went to some garage sales too!

[Larrissa]

thats it for 3RF all day??? quit slacking people!

i worked my booty off as a dishwasher today at my familys restaraunt

SO MANY DISHES, you wouldnt believe

[gwensmom]

There was a royal wedding in Denmark on Friday. The crown prince married an Austrailian.

My Danish friend once told me that the prince was a playboy type who like fast cars.

Denmark is a great place to visit. I have been there twice.

God dag.

[bluecrayon]

speed bumping through Saturday jingle jangle...

eating peanut butter with a knife right out of the jar...

listening to Prince really loud and thinking about infatuation guy...

[Lilac]

The two boys are gone from my house...my son went home with one of them. I'll be picking him up at 7 O'clock...so I have two HOURS of silence!!!!

I have a massive headache from dealing with three 10 year old boys for almost 24 hours!

It's fun to evesdrop into 10 year old boys' conversations! :lol:

[Larrissa]

:yay: congratulations lilac!

must make acts tonight, made some last night but they were for the crap lmao i couldnt get out of crap mode

strung out on a caramel macciatoimsosnobbyicantsayitsjustacoffee ...

[Cuilanië]

- thanks siafu for the good wishes -- I'll be fine tomorrow or the day after.

- I have a heart-broken roommate... his bf seems to want to break up with him.

- I'm trying out transfers.

[Curlita]

I just had yummy leftover Thai food for lunch.

Now I really want chocolate, but I fear what the midwife may say at my next prenatal weigh-in.

Of course, the weigh-in is four weeks away...

Bonus: I think this is my third straight TRF in a row to mention Thai food.

[Cuilanië]

- I'm pretty sure I'll prefer the acrylic gel method, but for now packing tape's all I have.

- it's all curled up in the water...

- I should prepare the surface I want to glue my transfers on now.

[Cuilanië]

- I also think this is Curlita's third-in-a-row 3RF post mentioning Thai food.

- I'm jealous. It's really hard to find real Thai food around here.

- I say eat the chocolate and don't even worry about it later... ^_^

[Lilac]

My Mother's been going to weight watchers and has given me a couple good recipes from them. Tonight I'm making one: Mix a can of diet Pepsi with one cup of ketchup, add chicken breasts and cook in the crock pot all day.

It sounds really strange, but it smells wonderful.

I'll let everyone know how it tastes after dinner tonight!

[gwensmom]

So what do 10 year old boys talk about?

I made peanut butter and oatmeal and chocolate chip cookies today.

I'm making casseroles tomorrow.

[Lilac]

10 year old boys:

1. Make up disgusting parodies of populars songs, using words such as: "fart", "poop", "toilet", "stink", "bum", "turd", etc...

2. Talk about how much better they are in video games than "so and so" (who of course is not present to defend his honor).

3. Use expletives like ""WHOA", "SWEEEEET", "DANG IT"....and when they think I'm not listening..."ASS" and "SHIT"

4. Eat ungodly amounts of food.

5. Talk about which girls in their classes are getting boobs.

6. Stir up the dogs

7. Track grass clippings and dirt through the house

8. scream and wrestle

9. brag

10. don't like to have Mom hanging around.
