Three random facts:

[zanna]

i stayed out all last night at my friends.

didn't get home until just now.

picked up some taco bell and am about to enjoy and start in on season 4 of 'friends'.

[Skilyne]

Tonight I am hoping to finish up some ATC's for a few exchanges I am in.

Last night, I decided to send my brother in Iraq a package, so I went to the store and bought: a dinosaur toothbrush, Princess Bubblegum-flavored toothpaste, some plastic jungle animals, foot powder, and granola bars. He's going to laugh when he opens it up...hopefully it makes his day a little brighter...he hates it over there.

I have on "A Perfect Circle" and also have the television on...but not really paying attention to either of them. I don't know...guess I like the background noise.

[kamoke]

I took some photos of the most beautiful dog and a cool old man. They were the best pair ever!

Im not too interested in interneting this evening, possibly because im exhausted

Im gonna get some food and get involved in a relationship with the boob tube

[Larrissa]

i often wonder what the "sever load" and "GZIP" and "script execution time" at the bottom of the screen means. its not important enough to ask picasso about.

today i started three altered books and a couple little handbound books. its fun :yay:

its been a long time since i have blushed.

[zanna]

last night i hung out all evening with my two old friends. [and by this i mean actual older people]

they pretend to take offense whenever i call them my old friends, but it's only the truth. they're 34 and 37.

they like to call me only half a person because of my age, but there must be something wrong with me. i love spending time with older people, i prefer them much more then people my own age. :blink:

[Lilac]

I just got back from camp. I tore off a fingernail while trying to un-jam a closet door in the cabin. It looks totally disguting and hurts like hell.

My son brought back an IO moth that broke it's wing. He's feeding it hummingbird nectar.

It was a fun but uneventful weekend.

[Skilyne]

but there must be something wrong with me. i love spending time with older people, i prefer them much more then people my own age. Nothing wrong with you there...I do too.

Glad that Lilac had a nice trip this weekend.

When I was little, my brother caught a baby frog, and held it so long that it died. He didn't squish it or anything, but it just died. He thought it was sleeping, and carried it around all day until we could convince him it needed some nice bed to sleep it...and he made one out of leaves.

[gwensmom]

Somehow I knew that Lilac would not come back from that camping trip unscathed.

I am still trying not to laugh about the rabbit cage incident.

Gwensdad said he would take me out for ice cream! I tell him that I married him because the first thing he ever bought me was ice cream.

I didnt expect to come back from the weekend unscathed, either...I'm a disaster waiting to happen...but I DID expect to come back with my FINGERNAIL! :blink:

I got a new rabbit cage, by the way! :lol:

I need to go to bed. But we all know that I wont! :P



*edited beacause it's hard to type with a missing fingernail, believe it or not!

[siafu]

poor lilac!

poor me, making shepherd's pie that i'm going to pass on.

poor this baby i saw born with only one ear. i wish i were in a position to adopt him, but i am not. :(

[Lilac]

I can't stop looking at that picture of The Bay City Rollers on the picture scavenger hunt thread. They are hideous. And scary. And they make me want to throw up.

I used to watch those guys on Saturday morning TV when i was a kid and thought they were sooo cool.

YUCK!

[Larrissa]

lilac, i think that picture is cute! :o :ph34r: all kinds of dorky but i like the shoes and crazy colors. it looks like the people in it could use a few insights tossed into thier empty young heads ... but oh well.

im making stuff. i like to make stuff. people who make stuff have people who dont make stuff beat. we rock.

"20 fouls left" oooooh sports on tv for the stepdad. i have to tolerate it to check in here, again.

*edit to say: i had never heard of these fools before today. young and ignorant, i live under a rock. dont hate me :D

[ibiddy_boo]

No matter what Larrissa, you never fail to cheer me up and make me laugh.

Awww Siafu....that's sad to hear about that baby.

Bay City Rollers....i used to have a pair of jeans with the plaid flannel lining....and i wore them on Saturday night! *shudder*!

[Lilac]

There is a strange odor in my house.

It smells like sweat, but my son and I have both gotten showers.

I wonder, was the a strange person in my house sweating while I was away for the weekend?

[Sirius]

Well, there have been a few regulars missing, and they did know you were out of town.

My dad had to go to the hospital this morning. He has a torn rotator cuff (I have know idea if I have those words right, that's what it sounded like and my knowledge of interior body parts is limited to things like heart, lungs, muscle, kidney). His arm is in a sling and he goes to a specialist tomorrow to see about therapy.

That is all very sad, and he is in a lot of pain, but...um...he got hurt because he fell off the mechanical surfboard at our party last night....and I can just imagine the fun he is going to have trying to explain that one at work tomorrow....

[medeous]

eh, that's creepy lilac.
i'm wearing a hat with a pompom on top
rooms cleaned so far: 0

I don't know what to say to this.


It's just so...



oh...poor ibiddyboo

[Sirius]

my "it's your turn" automated scrabble message to medeous was returned.

I have everything pulled out of all the cabinets, linen closet, drawers, cubbies etc in the master bathroom and am cleaning it all out and up (how does so much hair get in the backs of drawers?) I have bags set up for trash, to mom, to nieces, to goodwill. I am making progress and a mess.

The mass posting of Culkin pictures in the scavenger thread is kind of...creepy....

[ibiddy_boo]

:rofl: Wait! Why am i laughing?? i should be crying!.....bleh, that was years ago....the nightmares have ended. But that picture in the Scavenger Hunt thread has awakened all that horror! :o

Ok....three serious (sorta) facts.....

1) i am going out of town tomorrow for awhile. :)

2) the location is a mystery....even to me! :blink:

3) we leave at 5 am, so i have to get my patootie to bed now. Goodnight y'all!

[Sirius]

If it makes you<ibiddy-boo> feel better, i will admit just this once that at the same time I had the Cure, Depeche Mode and New Kids on the Block in my music library.

For some reason I had a secret (guess it is okay to admit a secret 15 years later) repetitive urge to hear "the right stuff." I can still here Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh...the right stuff. Admitting it helps.

I feel guilty about my dad, not that I could have helped it...what, "No! Dad! Not the surf board!!!"

Edited to add: ibbidy-boo so you would know who the you was...

[medeous]

huh?
i have to go potty, but i'm too lazy...i can hold it.
i'm feeling rather peevish
someone burn my house down so i don't have to clean it.

[gwensmom]

I don't want to go to work tomorrow but I have to.

At least my supervisor won't be there and I can get a lot done.

Gwen will not settle down and go to sleep. I, on the other hand, am about to pass out!

[Lilac]

:lol: :lol:

Sorry about your Dad;s rotator cuff.

I agree...mass Culkin postings were creepy.

[Larrissa]

so i found a long lost love! .... walking alone (with the rottweiler) around at night. it was so wonderful :wub: i walk and walked and walked, for about thirty minutes, i had to come back to pee. i will have to do this more often. i can't believe i could forget to do something so lovely. :wub: (that little guy just shows up so often for me lately, what the hell? :D )

hmm, i feel peace, and love. reminds me of when mr. burns comes out of the forest and homer and bart think hes an alien and hes all freaky and glowy and says something about love or peace, or both, i cant remember :)

there are three or four people in word bingo with the same word as their last word. and that is the last word on the list. and im not calling it. the conpiracies are far-reaching apparently :lol:

[Sirius]

I used to enjoy running alone. Running. It seems like such a funny thing to do now. Last time a ran my shins revolted.

It was a great feeling though, especially if you had the right running mood music playing.

You know, like the scary someone is chasing you music from a movie. ;)

[Astabeth]

I haven't been here in a while... I wonder what I've missed - interesting stuff.

I had a satin jacket with Sean Cassidy on the back. Even worse than the Bay City Rollers.

And Sirius, when I saw that I went EWW! until I remembered my obsession with Wannabe by the Spice Girls... the only cd that I had that I hid.

[siafu]

i hid all my music. there was no rock music allowed in the house i grew up in. :o

this is the face i am obsessed with :o

we are house shopping and kid seeking. i am kind of scared this will leave me without any further jack kerouac adventures. i love his novella tristessa.

[Larrissa]

good luck with the baby thing :wub:

my neck hurts! if only i had designed the computer ... it would comfortable to use. except for sirius. because she messed with bingo.

i laugh and laugh and my face gets all silly and i laugh some more, then i realize somone in the house might see or hear me so the last few giggles come out awkward. :lol:

[Astabeth]

My neck hurts too.

Why do I feel the @#$@# need to try to capitalize and punctuate everything correctly?

Hmm, maybe if I stay up late enough I'll get brave enough to post in fight club.

[Larrissa]

go asstoothlessbutthead! go! its fun in there.

i have currently lost my mind again, i should log off and do something else.

remember to "choo" it works.

[Astabeth]

I'm going to bed now.

I'm going to try and dream up something crude enough for what's going on in fight club.

Hmm, this takes me back to my college days... the first time around!

[Sirius]

astabeth won't make it in fight club with #*@(# !

when my father got his first computer years ago he called and asked me how to make capital letters...

that was at the point in my life where i was so tired of 'being there' for everyone that my answering machine message said, "if you are calling for financial, emotional or technical support leave a message if you just want to talk to me, let me know and I will pick up." yeah, i felt pretty guilty for that one, but it was really bad at that point, somehow i had been deemed ms. fix-it and was getting frustrated and overwhelmed with taking on everyone's problems.... hey, maybe that's when I became cynical! :o (for siafu) ;) (for me)

[Sirius]

I remember when I knew Larrissa better for her superb scrabble skills than her wild posts.

I used the word Yocks in scrabble.

Yocks means: To laugh or joke, especially boisterously.

[kamoke]

I like scrabble but im not too good at it

I have a headache, probably from lack of food due to lack of food..

its 3:40 am here.which means bed.in a few

[Sirius]

For convenience sake, I have skipped dinner two nights in a row.

That wouldn't be a bad thing, except for the antibiotics I am supposed to take with a full meal twice a day. I'm behind now.

Eek. No one told me it was after 11pm...I have to go to work in the morning. Not tired. hm...play more and be sleepy tomorrow or be responsible? Tough call.

[Sirius]

According to my forum news, James is not 1 -- he is 99. so, is it all off, or is it actually his birthday.

If so, happy birthday.

If not, happy non-birthday.

Truly -- sleep deprivation can cause pointless TRF, poor spelling, horrific typing abilities, and lack of ability to remember what words to use when (effect, affect)...but if she would just play her Scrabble word, I would go to sleep.

[siafu]

hey thanks, rustell :o

i love kingdom of loathing

i will like playing tomorrow :lol:

[Lilac]

Working

Bored

Tired

[kamoke]

I got a huugge bag of candy thats not helping my attempts to get breakfast

Its finally sunny here today! after over a week and a half of rain! :D

I have to get a shower dammit! :P

[stargal1998]

1. I'm getting new contacts... yay!
2. I've been wearing the same pair of contacts for about 5 months...and I think they're monthly change contacts... :-(
3. I was going to buy lots of boxes of them but decided to just go with what was covered (and free) on the company insurance, so I could spend my money on good things--like mailing stuff.... :-)

[sarahkate]

~ It took what seemed like forever to read through all of the 3RF posted since I signed off on Friday night. You all seemed to have gone on a posting frenzy, which is cool with me because it gives me something fun to do.

~ I wish I had a huge bag of candy. This whole weekend I have been drooling over the thought of chewy watermelon slice candy. I even had a dream about them the other night!

~ My boyfriend and I went to a furniture store on Saturday and bought a couch! Woohoo!!! We currently have 3 chairs in our living room and no couch, and it looks horrible because of the shape of the room. This will be the first brand new couch I have ever had in my life. Even when I was a kid living with my parents we always had a funky old second hand velvet-like couch. I can't wait to sit on my new couch. Of course, the one we picked out wasn't in stock so we have to wait until at least the 22nd to pick it up. *sigh*

[tanagee]

to make everyone feel better about their embarassing admissions I will let y'all in on my skeletons...I used to have: a R Kelly CD, a huge crush on Andy Gibb, a Shaun Cassidy t-shirt, fingerless WHAM! gloves, and a huge flourecent pink sweater.

Whew!

I am tired of being a responsible adult...but if you ask the Hubby he will tell you I am not all that responsible.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 there's no way i'm going to catch up on reading the TRFs i will miss over the weekend while i'm gone camping...

2 i wonder if i will get mail this week... (i'd better) lol

3 i'm definitely going to be needing lunch soon

[pequad]

If Larrissa still wants to chop up Britney Spears, she can borrow my ax, and then I'll fix her a sandwich & an ice cream cone when she's done.

I bought Blood of Heroes on DVD today, cause I adore postapocalyptic B flix starring Rutger Hauer.

My friend Dot sent me a very groovy carved bone cicada bead in the mail today, isn't she the coolest!

Carol

[Larrissa]

oh i love you guys. :wub:

i had a stack of postcards, and initiated an exchange with nukke for one with the big letters, and now i cant find them. i had zero use for them and now i have a use, and i hope i didnt stupidly throw them away. i never throw anything away if its still useful right? :huh:

so i have no notification emails ... just sent myself a reminder thingie though ... "superb scrabble skills"? :rofl: thats funny. liar! NOW EAT SOME FOOD YOU! you wont ever get unsick unless you eat.

*bonus? naww, im not telling.

[medeous]

a huge crush on Andy Gibb
stay away from my man, tana :angry:

i once dialed random miami phone numbers all day in the hope of reaching andy.
i figured i'd know him if i heard him, i guess.
the phone company didn't make my parents pay the bill after a few heated discussions.

[Larrissa]

HA! i have no scrabble turns .... its not that game from two months ago is it? with the other email address i moved away from? if so, im sorry i sooo cant play my turn.

oh and rustell? dont get all up in my space and post in MY tracking thread. :P now i know where you live. i love threatening people with that, "i know where you live, dont make me come over there!"

did anyone ever watch that VH1 show, ILLustrated? oh it was superb the few times i watched it ... the best was moby floating around at his keyboard singing a car commercial "a nissian sentra ... " ahhh man, that was funny stuff. i should look for it again. " ... he's mad eloquent yo! ... "

[Sirius]

Now Larrissa has a Scrabble Game to play. :huh:

And, she likes it when I post in her tracking thread. She appreciates the attention. I don't believe her complaints. :P

I need a third Larrissa fact. Hm. There are areas from which I will not open mail that might arrive, but I would open mail from Larrissa. :unsure:

[zanna]

got up and started cleaning.

feeling still morose.

don't have any idea what my day is going to bring ..

[medeous]

zanna's day has brought her turn in scrabble.
my schedule today is: work for 15 minutes, play for 30 minutes. rinse and repeat.
the picture scavenger hunt thread makes me feel slightly dirty, but i can't stop it.

[Larrissa]

i had a thought last night, every time someone loads one of the picture scavenger hunt pages, all the servers we hotlinked from have to pay a little for us to see it ... dont tell me im the only one who hotlinks to the pictures ... i dont believe you!

i will have to send something annoying ... it may take me a week or two ... dont expect anything.

so they still havent bought coffee, i could just walk over there my damn self, but i would have to shower and put shoes on and all that ... and right now i dont want to. im terrified of working.

[medeous]

i save the pictures and then upload them to my walagata acct. :huh:

my spawn has awoken from the slumber of the near-dead...now she'll want something to eat, i suppose.

we have no bedtime in the summer :D

[sarahkate]

~ When I got home from work on Friday my boyfriend had a surprise waiting for me... the new Modest Mouse cd. :wub: Float On makes me happy.

~ Pasta + broccoli + cheese = fantabulous

~ I just found out my boyfriend might have to go away for work for two weeks (or more) and he would only be home on the weekends. This really sucks. I don't want to live alone for all of that time. This is NOT fantabulous.

[Sirius]

Oh, BTW, she who rants about people having excuses about mailing things has an excuse of her own...

I have mail in my car, but I am working four ten hour shifts, which include all the hours the postal employees are there to take my mail and tell me I have enough postage on them, so I won't be able to mail the packages I have to go until Friday.

We're talking a four day delay, not four weeks, or four months, but my apologies none-the-less.

Bonus non-fact -- none-the-less is a weird little phrase.

[stargal1998]

1. I have never heard of Modest Mouse.

2. Insurance companies lie to people hoping to get contacts. $20 for 6 months worth? No I'll go online and get reimbursed for 2 years, thank you.

3. Speaking of weird crushes, when I was little I had a crush on one of the Ghostbusters from the two movies... it was a most embarrasing crush.

[Larrissa]

do i like snow? do I like snow? well hell yes!

oh i should go have a day now.

see all you lovelies later!

:wave:

[Larrissa]

cloudead = modest mouse only BETTER. i cant listen to MM anymore after hearing cloudead. try it, i promise its good.

i love brian eno's ambient music. some of my favorite music.

i need to work some on the myth damnit. i have a little start but nothing special.

[zanna]

i swear.

things keep getting better and better.

my dog just died today. :(

1: i think sarahkate should run up her phone bill that week and call me to chat!!! :D

2: i'm tired tired tired... and julian is acting his age and it's really making me more tired...... i wish he'd stop it.....

3: bbq-ing for supper.... i wish i had some big mushrooms and zucchini.... :( steak isn't gonna do it for me... though it'll score brownie points with mr. nymphette... :lol: though i don't really have to score brownie points, he's the one who needs to be sucking up....

bonus: i had a nightmare last night!! gwensmom and her family were in it.... it was really weird.....

1: i think i broke my toe today.... i kicked one of julian's toys- a big ride-on truck- and now it is swollen.... :angry:

2: serves me right.....

3: i think i might need anger management classes.....

[thunderstorm_19]

1 sorry about your doggie zanna!

2 it's hot and humid, overcast, and i keep sneezing.

3 that was a really dumb sentence.

[Sirius]

sorry about your dog zanna, and your toe robyn

glad gwensmom was in your dream though...i was starting to get paranoid about being in dreams

If i go home sick, is it wrong to stop at the post office instead of waiting for Friday?

[Skilyne]

I'm sorry to hear about your dog Zanna.

I got out of work EARLY today!

I think I am going to go lay outside in the sun and read.

[medeous]

i have a doctor's appt tomorrow. :mellow:
i kind of don't want to go, because the last time i went they had to do some stuff to me and then i never went for my follow-up. :ph34r:
but it's a different doctor, so they don't know i chickened out and it will be just like starting over. :)

[sarahkate]

~ Oh zanna, I'm so so so sorry that your dog died. :'( *hugs* Losing a pet is like losing one of your best friends. :'( I'm sure that because of you, your dog had a great life. Maybe he/she was just waiting to see you grow up, waiting for you to graduate from high school.

~ I told myself when my first cat died (I got him when I was 6 and he died during my first year of college, when I was 18) that I would never get any new pets ever again, because I didn't want to deal with them dying, but of course I did and now I'm dreading the time when they all pass on.

~ I still haven't buried the little birdy that fell from our roof and died. It's still in our shed. We have either been busy/it was raining/or some days we just forgot to bury it. We will have to do that tonight before Cory goes away for work. Maybe we will bury it under the pear tree.

[kamoke]

Oh god, i might get to go to st johns tonight!

Chantal lives in st johns

maybe i can surprise her [!] :wub:

[zanna]

yeah, i always take losing a pet pretty hard because they are just like friends/family.

within the span of less than a year though, this makes my 3rd pet that has died. my life is just plagued with all of kinds of death, both animal and human alike.

i lost another dog last august and then a cat in january, we think both due to poisioning. :( but this dog i'd had since i was 5, so we think it must have just been from old age.

~ I don't think I have ever been alone for quite so long. Whatever will I do? Well, at least it will give me a chance to play here on the forums at night, rather than just during the day!

[nymphette]

1: my head hurts from being angry....

2: while i was having a quick shower, julian got the car wash kit i bought and sprayed/dumped cleaners all over the floor, his sandals, his boots, a cardboard box i was packing clothes in..... he's in his bedroom now because i am so mad at him!!!! i told him he'll have to stay in there till his dad gets home because i am so mad..... :( i cleaned up the mess and then went in to say i was sorry for yelling at him and he's asleep.....

3: so now he wont' nap this afternoon, which means *I* can't nap, which means that my mood won't be getting any better any time soon.... i really need like twenty minutes to myself... me, only me... no kids, no husband, no nothing...

i feel like the baddest mom in the world for yelling at him.... and i can't even make myself feel better by giving him a hug and kiss and saying sorry becuse he's sleeping..... :'(

[sarahkate]

~ Well I will have to hold off on terrorizing little zanna. No food throwing, pinching or hair pulling for a while. She is too cute and sad to abuse! :( :wub:

~ This day has gone by faster than I expected. Only an hour and a half until I can go home.

~ I borrowed my mom's sewing machine. It's a funky Singer with orange & yellow flowers on it that my Nana bought for her when she was about 13 years old. I hope I can figure out how to use it by myself.

[indigo]

Julian loves his mommy and knows his mommy loves him too

He probably won't even remember why he was sent to his room in the first place.

You can give him some lovin when he gets up. :wub:

[medeous]

maybe robyn could go lie down with julian and nap, too?

kids are pretty forgiving.
kids are rarely truly malevolent.
your kids love you.

[Larrissa]

damnit sarahkate, you asked for it *takes the leftover ice and tosses it in her general direction* dont break the sewing machine, i will tell on you.

miss zanna, as you are still alive, the world is okay.

and today i went out for a few with my momma to pick up my sister, and its hot and all i want to do is come back and wait for night. then i will walk walk and walk more! hurry up sun! i dont want to see your face anymore! go home early!

[indigo]

:lol: picturing nymphette in Julian's {little} big-boy bed!!! ;)

I am having a good hair day today.

I wish I was anywhere but here.

I just finished doing 14 letters.

[medeous]

when we first moved to new mexico, my then husband, my daughter and i all slept in a single twin bed in my sister's guest room.

i'm not sure why we didn't use one of the couches or something...i guess we still liked each other at that time.

i'm glad i'm not in new mexico and married to him anymore.

[sarahkate]

~ Oooh yeah...I can still throw stuff at Larrissa! Woot! Hmmm.... Oooh... *takes cap off of Hi-Liter and flings it in Larrissa's direction - now she has a big yellow smear across her forehead. :P Mmmm....ice...chomp chomp*

~ I didn't know medeous used to live in New Mexico. Well, I'll be a monkey's uncle! :blink:

~ It's hot out here too. I like it, though that's probably because I am stuck in a freezing cold building all day, so the warm air feels nice when I step outside.

[kamoke]

My sister is coming over for supper, I haven't seen her in forever.

We're BBQing, I'm not really helping though :P

I took a load of photos today

[kamoke]

gone to st johns!

..enjoying a hamburger

i feel good looking today :D

[zanna]

:P you silly thang sarahkate! fighting relives my sadness!

*wads up a piece of paper and pegs it in the back of sarahkate's head*

i can't decide what i want to eat. i'm hungry, but don't know what to make. hmm ..

[sarahkate]

~ That's true. I just feel bad throwing things at someone who is sad, but since you want it and since you threw that paper ball at me well......ummm...let's see...what do I have to throw.... OOOOH! *flicks dozens of evil little paper clips at zanna* (yes, evil paper clips - they are ugly and they bite!) :ph34r:

~ I seem to only have good hair & skin days when no one sees me. :wacko:

~ I think I will be eating a lot of Boca burgers while the bf is away. Cooking something "big" for only myself to eat is weird.

[stargal1998]

1. Aww, poor nymphette and zana... hugs... :wub:
2. Poor SK, too. Hey, Nick's leaving Wednesday for a week. We'll have to do something girl power-wise. :P
3. I cleaned up all kinds of stuff that didn't make it from the front porch to the trash can today. Nasty stuff (I think we almost had a compost pile)...I got some 'skeeter bites, but they're better because I came into the house and put on some clay facial mask on them and let it dry... all better!

[Larrissa]

so yeah, its been said winter. and i can stay at their place. :yay: if you dont know, i dont think im telling.

im gonna go make art now.

it was lots of fun to talk with siafu for so long in IM's. she got the package :yay:

i will throw more stuff later, theres not much laying around ...

kids are pretty forgiving.

your kids love you.
i actually did go in and i picked him up and held him for a bit... i do feel better now, though i haven't actually napped...

i could nap- go in and lay down on the extra (kid's sized) mattress in his room and nap by him... but because he went to sleep at 1 or so, i gotta get him up right away or it'll be battle royale at bedtime...

<deep breath> thanks medeous... :) i needed that....

[medeous]

i've been gathering little piles of stuff to stuff in envies and bags and boxes.

not junk, but artsy-fartsy usable stuff that i just haven't used.

as i've said before, this is The Summer of De-Cluttering.

bonus: lemme know in PM if you want a random mailing of non-junk...i'm too lazy to find the thread in which i'm supposed to post the offer.

[indigo]

I think that medeous should send us some random mailings of non-junk, don't you nymphette?

I want to go home.

I just finished another 8 letters. <_<

[ibiddy_boo]

Wow....took me a long time to read & catch up in here.

Big (((hugs))) to zanna for losing your pup. :( Big hugs (((hugs))) to nymphette for smooshing your toe, and feeling like a ' bad mom' today...which you're not, and those days are normal. i had similar days and felt the same way, and did the same thing....went and woke the kidlet up, and lavished him/her with hugs and smoochies.

kamoke, i hope you are having a wonderful time in st johns :)

[nymphette]

1: i wish i was going to st. john's tonight.... :P only because it is close to nova scotia and i have been trying to get a hold of an ex boyfriend/best friend who may or may not live there.....

2: i need caffeine.... think i'll have a diet pepsi....

3: just found an icky bug in the computer room..... blech!!! i don't know how you can do it ibiddy_boo!!!! i have the heebie-jeebies now!!!!! i cant' imagine big spiders or scorpions!!! <shudders>

[ibiddy_boo]

i'm wondering why nymphette is trying to get ahold of an old/ex boyfriend.

But....that makes me think of one of my old/ex bf's....*sighs*....he was a babe. That was waaaay back when though.....Bay City Roller days... :lol:

nymphette....there have been more bugs in here again today. i can't scream anymore....i'm hoarse. (did i spell that right??).....i can only stomp and squish quietly now. <_<

[gwensmom]

I also have a box of artsy non-junk assembled while decluttering.

I was wondering what to do with it.

Now I know- I will send it to Medeous!

[Sirius]

I finished decluttering the master bathroom last night. Those of you who think I am super organized will be dissapointed (or excited) to know I found a bottle of vitamn E that expired in 2001.

I boxed up all of my childhood barrettes and bobby pins to give to my nieces. It was fun to be nostalgic as I picked through them...

I have things I need to accomplish.

[nymphette]

nothing

[siafu]

larrissa is magic.

she sent me the coolest box of stuff.

she really understands beads. i hope i understand beads like that one day.

:evil: Any time, Robyn!

[nymphette]

1: now i DO want steaks for supper....

2: i am snacking on mixed nuts right now... julian picked them as his treat yesterday... :)

3: i love hazelnut coffee, and hazelnut flavored hot chocolate, but i don't care for hazelnuts... they're too bitter.....

[indigo]

I hating working until 6:00... but at least it is not until 7:00.

I am grumpy now I think.

I would rather be at nymphette's doing crafts.

[medeous]

k, all out of non-junk to send...for the moment.

and extra large helping of non-junk is headed to robyn that she is to share with indigo.

thinking of D_o_A and wondering if she'll ever find her way back...i get letters once in a while, but sometimes when you leave a place, it's hard to go back even if you want.

3: and indigo- you can come over on your day off and work on your LMAO's!!!!

[indigo]

I don't have any days off for a million years.......... :'(

I wish *I* had won the 10 million... <_<

Course... you need to have a ticket to win and I don't ever buy them....... :rolleyes:

[indigo]

1. nymphette says the picture i posted in scavenger hunt is not showing up

2. it is there when i go to it

3. strange things are afoot at the q&q :ph34r:

[nymphette]

1: it still isnt showing up for me...

2: it's okay cuz i have the original.... ;)

3: yes, it is a carrot...

[zanna]

oh. my. god.

has anyone here heard of ip-relay.com (http://www.ip-relay.com/index.htm)?

i just got a call from it and didn't know if it was real or fake, but it ended up beign my friend prank calling me, using this service to do it. i've never seen anything like it before.

[Dalmaney]

1. I have arrived in Pinawa and so far have been keeping myself too busy to be lonely.

2. Pinawa is 912 km from Saskatoon, at least the way I drove it. This distance will soon become very apparant.

3. The Boy is at a concert in Calgary so I can't even call him up to hear his sweet voice... *sigh*

[Dalmaney]

1. I just realized I've been gone so long that might not make sense to all readers.

2. I had to move for my sweeeet summer job mothering science geeks at camp. I love my work.

3. Except the part where I had to leave the Boy in Saskatoon.

I posted mine cuz indigo said I should :o

I have been waiting for something fitting in which to use that picture.

I wasn't there, it came to me in an e-mail with a funny story attached.

[zanna]

awww ..no ones here to play, for like the last hour.

i got quite a bit of cleaning done in the living room today, although there is so much more left to do.

i finally called and signed up for a tour of the dorms up at ga state on wednesday, so i'll be heading on up early to visit where i'll be moving to come fall. :)

[Lilac]

I just got back from the hospital. I had to get stitches in the bottom of my foot. I practically tore my heel in half by stepping on an exposed nail head in the floor of the tack room. (Stupidly walking around back there in my bare feet. Duh!)

First my fingernail, now my heel.

I need to be more careful or I'm going to end up getting hurt bad. I'm just now starting to realize this.

[zanna]

aww poor lilac! :hug:'s to you!

i'm bored.

yeah ..still bored.

[gwensmom]

Oh Lilac! :o That must have hurt like hell :'( . I am so sorry.

I am so tired that my head feels tight

Tomorrow is my morning off and as usual I have a mile long list of things to do. I'd rather sleep.

[Lilac]

Yes, Gwensmom...it did hurt like hell...funny thing is, it didnt really hurt all that bad at first. After about 5 minutes, though, I was beginning to get hysterical. Mostly, though it was because my Father (who was there at the time) kept telling me that it was "bad, real bad." Then he proceeded to lecture me on the stupidity of walking in the barn in my bare feet. He lectured me all the way into the hospital, in the emergency room and was still lecturing me when he dropped me off.

The nice thing about this "accident" is that I've decided that I am going to call off from work tomorrow. I can barely walk on that foot.

I'm drinking a glass of red wine to drown my sorrows.

[Larrissa]

went to the library with my sister. i plan on looking at books filled with art and listening to good music tonight or tommorrow, i may get caffiened out and walk tonight too. i dont know yet.

i got wham! today. it was lots of reading material, very neat!

dinner was a fastfood chicken sandwich and my tummy isnt pleased with my choice.

(*what a boring post! i must be tired and not know it)

[hammerquill]

On the way home today I was next to a flatbed trailer truck which had several pallets of small boxes. The boxes were wrapped with plastic sheet to keep the flats together in shipping. The plastic was printed with the message: NEW ARTWORK: ROTATE YOUR STOCK. :lol:

I wonder where one orders whole flats of art, art by the semi-trailer-load... :rolleyes:

I want some stickers that say that to put on boxes shipped to our galleries. At least the ones with better senses of humor.

[moonweaver]

quote from Laurissa: <<i would call you guys were we actual friends, and demand to hang out. >>

You mean we aren't actual friends? :( I would love to hang out with you, but you're in CO, and I'm in FL.

I just spent about an hour reading back posts through the last two days.

I'm so glad bluecrayon is doing ok, and is back on the forums.

[Cuilanië]

<bright and cheery> Good Morning!

- I got up before nine today. And I actually fell asleep before dawn last night, too. I must be coming down with something. :lol:

- Oh yeah, that might have to do with Venus transiting the Sun today... :D I'm going out in a bit - after a bit of Internet, that is... ;) - to go watch it.

- I've even made coffee already. Nothing like motivation... :rolleyes:

[siafu]

heidi's work hours have changed, but my sleep hours have not.

tomorrow i am test driving an electric scooter. i just wanted to double my chances to win one.

i feel as though i was a sheet of corrugated cardboard and i have been soaked and peeled back layer by layer, until i am unrecognizable. sometimes this is good and sometimes not as good.

[Cuilanië]

Hello Theresa!

- I'm eating muesli for breakfast. I didn't have any fresh fruit to add to it though.

- I put too much milk in my coffee -- bleh. There was more left in the bottle than I thought.

- My hair is randomly curling and sticking up all over the place. I'm going to need a haircut soon, but I shall wait...

[siafu]

i really like muesli.

i have decided to look up a meditation or breathing class.

sorry about your coffee, eve.

[siafu]

there is a practice called soto zen.

i found that startling.

kind of like the discovery of nick bantock books.

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i actually got up in time to watch dharma and greg (which is at 8:30) today

2 today is world oceans day

3 when grocery shopping last week, mum bought some cheese, and i later noticed that the expiry date on said cheese was April 15 2003 - needless to say, the cheese got returned

[Obsidian_Cat]

I have a strange burning sensation in my right foot.

I've picked out three colors to paint my apartment.

I forgot to check when Venus will transit the sun today so that I could watch...

[gwensmom]

I bet Lilac also has a strange sensation in her foot. How are you today Lilac?

Today is my one morning off! I have done some errands and will go to a bead store when it opens at 11. Until then I have to go cut the fat off some chicken and freeze it for later use. Boring <_<

People keep talking about putting Gwen in an "institution". That makes me cry and nearly hyperventilate.

[Larrissa]

:o gwensmom! i have big weird computer hugs for you :hug:

:o soto zen! thats neat, you could try it :)

:o my computer time has been limited to 3 hours a day, aol has a timer and will sign me off and not let me back on! :'(

[Larrissa]

so last night the stepdad and assboy were going on a "walk" and i decide to go along. "walk" turns out to be a 5 mile speedwalk around some little lakes. it KICKED MY ASS, but i kept up most the way and it was night and i love to be out at night.

the cottonwood tree next door is still coming down, huge branches have been falling for days. that tree must be 50+ years old.

and now i will be showering and dressing for a day outside, as i must have a job very soon. i dont want to. i spent four motherfreaking years doing almost nothing, being a total freaking hermit and all the sudden i have one month to be normal. ive used up three weeks already. its not fair. but i better get over it as in winter i will be meeting people i dont want to turd out in front of :)

i have to email my daddy-o now. spend some of the three hours on it ... no more chain games for me! can you see the tears? well there arent any. :P

[zanna]

time to get a cleaning once again.

he called today, for the first time in days. we only spoke for 30 minutes though.

i swear, i almost think he causes me more grief than happiness.

Who are these people? Doctors? Therapists? Family? or just "people"? The only opinion I would hold to any value is that of Gwensdad and you! :hug:

:hug: to zanna, bluecrayon, lilac, basically everyone in need of hugs.

I need to go to the store and the PO but I am so unmotivated.

I DID get up at 7 this am though so that's a start I guess.

[Larrissa]

i have to go now! must not waste time! oh the sadness. i want to waste lots of time here on nearly pointless games.

when i come online and i have 0 new messages i feel all :huh: like what the hell? no one loves me?? HUH?

that both was and wasnt a request to talk to people. yep, im a bit stressed about the denial peeling away.

[indigo]

i disappeared into the 7th-dimension-of-not-in-the-shower this morning for the first time in a looooong time.....

it made me fall behind my routine and so i have been scrambling to catch up all morning

i hate being late/rushed

[ibiddy_boo]

:o That's awful!! Some people seem very insensitive. <_<

Lilac....ouch! My gosh, i hope your foot heals up fast, and i also hope you don't hurt yourself again anytime too soon!

i told myself i could have a half hour on here and that was it. That was an hour ago. How can a person be expected to catch up, comment, etc in half an hour? Can't be done.

[Larrissa]

so im here again. and no ones around. i had to download some fonts for the artists trading cards thingie ... thought i would check in

i saw sara in fight club :ph34r:

and now i must go, again. three hours my ass ... I PROTEST! damnit.

I'm feeling okay, Gwensmom, thanks for asking. I wussed out though and went to work. I hate calling off. They make me feel so guilty!

Do NOT listen to those people who want to institutionalize Gwen! Hearing that makes me angry, too! I just want to come down to Tennessee and kick some ass!

Of course, I'd have to wait for this foot to heal up...

...but seriously, you do what YOU feel is best and don't listen to anyone!!!

[Cuilanië]

- Sarah Gwen's Mom, don't you let those ignorant, insensitive people, whoever-the-hell they think they are, upset you like that. The only people qualified to even CONSIDER such an option are Gwensdad and yourself. Next time, you tell them it's none of their f*cking business... :angry: :hug:

soto zen{
- This reminds me... One of the best sushi restaurants in Montréal is called Soto. Alas, it's the one circumstances have persistently been preventing me from visiting... :(

- I have sunburns, the first this year. I go out to observe the Venus transit, which happened this morning here, and I didn't even think of using sunscreen. Now my nose will be peeling for the next two weeks... :rolleyes:

[tanagee]

finally went to the store but Megan had a melt down in the parking lot and no amount of bribery or a call to daddy would settle her down so we came home.

Now, after a smoothie and some twirling in the kitchen, she is happy as a clam sitting on her potty talking to herself.

this last random fact was interrupted by nap time stories.

[gwensmom]

They are not insensitive clods, they are people who care about us. The reason I get so upset is that they might be right. The main obstacles to keeping her at home are 1. money and 2. I'm getting worn out. But I swear I would be more upset about putting her somewhere than I would be if she died. If she died at least I would know that she was safe.

Oh well, we don't have to worry about this right now.

Right now I have to concentrate on finding more ways to put off vaccuuming. I hate vaccuuming!

[Lilac]

:hug: :hug: Many hugs to Gwensmom. :hug: :hug:

I cant even imagine what it would be like raising a special needs child. My heart breaks for Gwen and Gwensmom sometimes.

[Cuilanië]

Still, Sarah, I don't see how they can put even the slightest bit of pressure on you about it like that, not even if it's because they're worried about you. Of course, that won't stop them, but it puts me in mind of that old wheeze about the road to Hell and good intentions...

So *hugs* to you, and strength, and courage. You will make the right decision, whatever your decision is, because it will be right for you.

Maybe I should have posted this somewhere else, like a PM or something... :unsure:

[p.s. -- reading words of support on 3RF is an excellent way to avoid vacuuming... ;) ]

[thunderstorm_19]

1 hugs to gwensmom

2 the kiwi i am currently eating is not really ripe, and is as a result, a little solid and tart for my taste... but i was determined to have fruit, and the apples i don't care for just as they are (but i might make applesauce...), we dont' have bananas (so i can't make fried bananas), and the pears aren't ripe either.

3 it's got to be 27 celcius outside, or more. it's HOT. which is nice. but some genius has already turned the air conditioning on here, so in the house, especially down here in the basement, is definitively too cold.

[Lilac]

I just have to write about a few things that happened during my lunch break that still have me enraged.

First...a couple co workers and I went out to eat chinese. One of them, Yusef, is a very nice, unimposing, quiet, Muslim man. He offered to drive. When we got to his car, there was a card on his windshield saying "We are watching you and we know what you are doing signed the Klu Klux Klan. WTF!??? I'm so angry I could spit.

Then, at the restaraunt, there were a couple clods sitting behind us making very racist, demeanimg remarks about the Asian waiters.

Obviously there are sub-classes to the human race.

[Skilyne]

:hug: Big hugs to Gwensmom!!! :hug:

Lilac-I would be so angry about that too. You are right...there must be sub-classes to the human race. There is no excuse for racism.

We got a package from my brother yesterday with 2 cameras of film he had taken in Iraq...his buddies, the base, and him. That made everyone here SO HAPPY...just to see him!

[Sirius]

News Flash!

First news flash: I believe TRF really is no longer TRF and more of our "chat" forum. So I am disregarding the TRF format for this post.

Second news flash:

Conversation excerpt:

R: You watch too much tv.
B: You are on the computer too much.

Result:

B & R have agreed to no computer and no television for a week. So, my computer usuage is limited to when I am at work. I will still be on now and again throughout the day(during work), checking in on your lives, but for the next week not from home. So, less facts from R for the next few days. Last night was the first night. We faired well.

[siafu]

you guys, i try to steel myself so i can have this cutthroat career and make a buttload of money, especially helping me to afford a roomy house and a kid. but when i read what you write, my heart melts and i go back to being public interest lawyer #1. it's such a dilemma.

i need to go brush my hair.

my new hobby is plugging stuff i make into this little program and calculating the nutritional information.

[tanagee]

My hubby keeps getting post cards and advertisements from an assisted living facilty...I don't know WHAT mailing list he's on that they think he's elderly. This latest one offers a complimentary meal and tour of the facility...OH BOY "hospital" food!!

My laundry room smells musty...must go investigate.

Come to think of it my whole house smells kind of like a icky sponge.

[gwensmom]

My momma came over for a while and brought me some vitamins. She brought liquid and chewable (for grownups!) because I gag on those horse pills. She even brought apple juice for me to put the liquid in so I wouldn't taste it.

My momma said Gwen was not going to an institution.

I feel much better now.


:yell: :spank: to all those icky people Lilac was talking about!!!

1 i take chewable adult multivitamins too

2 i haven't done anything useful today, i think i should now

3 and i should get a snack on the way

[medeous]

nan brought me kool aid and tylenol, served up with a "mmmm, toxicity!"

i've probably mentioned this before: she's precocious.

it's officially too hot.

[medeous]

oh, god bless her, she's making dinner!

we're having more kool-aid, cheese pizza and then some cookie dough ice cream.

now, if she'll do the dishes, too...i'll keep her.

[Larrissa]

i have to keep peeking in for like ten minutes at a time.

rasie your hand if the non-obedience to 3rf format upsets you

i swept the floor and worked more on the altered book. i want to work with my fabric but dont know what to do with it.

raise your hand if you spend "too much time" on the computer

so im being rebellious and using more than three paragraphs.

the kitten is munching on my foot, im afraid if i move, she will make me bleed.

i go on repeat rampages with cds. i will listen to one over and over again. sometimes i cant find the one i want to play on repeat and it frustrates me.

i hope everyone who reads this does better, lots better, and feels good inside about something, and does a good action for themselves.

[Helquin]

I did something today in sheer defiance of my "inner voice" shouting NO NO NO!

I haven't posted in this thread since it was just a little nipper.

I don't know if I like my "Baba Yaga" illustration for the Oracle Project LMAO or not. :unsure:

I have no strong feelings about adherence to the 3rf format but sometimes it's good to break a rule just for the exercise.

[Dalmaney]

1. I actually like my job. If it were near Saskatoon, I would love it.

2. I mailed out 17 packages to my students today.

3. I am very possessive about my students. Someone's got to watch out for my kids!

[kamoke]

First time I've seen her since november 2nd 2003!

It was strange I think..

..I also think I have come to the conclusion that I am oficially confused, distraught, sad, mad and just about everything else.

[Larrissa]

haircut &

dinners ready &

i have ten minutes left this online session

[Larrissa]

five minutes. PHOO!

im happy, i told you to ignore my complaints. did you forget!? :wub:

so now i must play and wait to be forcibly signed off ... TYPOS ARE SLOWING ME DOWN!

[bluecrayon]

I just read kamoke's rant about love...

yikes. I have to think about what to respond with.

I have been detached of late from 3 random facts. Wondering why...????

[siafu]

i'm not sure

it's nice when you're here.

i'm making collard greens for supper.

[ibiddy_boo]

Poor Larrissa....i feel sorry her having a 3 hour limit. :(

My computer's acting up again. <_<

i have no willpower when it comes to brownies (or chocolate in general), and ate too many tonight.... http://www.click-smilies.de/sammlung0304/spezial/trancebox/green/stongue.gif

[Skilyne]

I too have been eating brownies tonight...I had to stop myself before it got out of hand.

Today at work...HOT! We've got no air-conditioning, and let me tell you...it was brutal.

After work, I went down to the beach and laid there reading. I've got a burn on both arms...because I forgot to move around or put on sunscreen. Plus, I tan or even burn...until today of course. UGH.

[ibiddy_boo]

Oooh....i love collard greens!

i love any greens!

margaritas are green too.

[Lilac]

OH MY GOD ----- I can't stop eating! Someone help me before I explode!!!

KA-BOOM

too late

[zanna]

i'm making popcorn.

and i've made myself a drink.

i do believe i'm going to sit down, relax, and watch some 'friends'.

[Cuilanië]

- Went to bed before midnight last night.

- Got up before seven.

- :wacko:

[siafu]

what's for breakfast, e?

i need to go put cookies in the oven.

the national association of broadcasters gave out marconi awards?

[bluecrayon]

he's calling me in 35 minutes

I'm all tingly...


I'm gonna eat some chocolate.

[siafu]

i have tried both jello biafra and baked tofu because bluecrayon mentioned them.

they were both good.

the marconi awards they gave out were named after the inventor of the radio, not the punk dj.

[bluecrayon]

the original marconi was actually a fascinating person and well worth reading about...

I used to live in the same neighborhood as Jello Biafra (still wish I liked his voice more)

I have a gnarly scar running up my neck, but I kind of like it...

[moonweaver]

My husband's brother died Tuesday at the age of73.

My son in Chicago told us Tuesday that his wife is pregnant again, and she "feels" it's a girl.

And so the circle of life continues.

[zanna]

woke up at 7:30am today. :angry:

but had to since i'm making the trek up to atlanta to tour the dorms where i'll be staying.

i'll miss playing today ..thought i'd make a quick stop in before i start the hour and a half drive. ciao! :)

[Skilyne]

I am feeling so crummy today...I called off work.

I hate calling off work.

I always end up feeling guilty about it, even though they don't make me feel that way.

[Skilyne]

I am all alone here on the boards :(

I'll probably go back to sleep soon and rest up.

I really want to go back to work tommorow.

[sarahkate]

~ I really hate going to work but I always feel guilty when I call in sick too.

~ I had honey nut cheerios for breakfast. Yum. (everyone else was talking about food, I figured I should too!)

~ I wonder when Larrissa is going to post the AFTER picture of her new haircut in the pictures thread. ^_^

[ibiddy_boo]

Skilyne i'm sorry you're not feeling well.

i have to go to town today....errands to run.

i might go by the DQ for an ice cream treat on the way home.

[Cuilanië]

what's for breakfast, e?
Conversation with him. :wub: Rare on a weekday, because of the time difference... :(

I just had a piece of chocolate with almonds, but I really want ice cream. It's hot and stuffy today.

The sunburn on my arms is turning into a nice tan.

[Larrissa]

never! no more pictures from me! no really i cant believe i posted that one :D maybe another day

last night was all stormy and i sat at the patio table witn an umbrella for two hours, then went to go to bed and ended up listening to the same hour long cd four times over while making strange little sewed peices of art ... it was fun and now i woke up all early. it will be a caffienated day.

thankfully today might not be hot, the stepdad hasnt hooked up or fixed or done something needed to the swampcooler, so we be uncooled over here ...

good morning :wave: to everyone!

[Larrissa]

me again. i apologize if my aggressive posting in here has bullied anyone away.

so now i have spent an hour of my time today and i dont know where it went ... oh yeah the quizzes forum! :lol:

so now i must go and have a day. a day a day a long day without hours played here.

lets take out some frustration ... *opens the altoids tin and starts plinking them at sarahkates head. she doesnt even notice at first* ahh comment on my picture posted in a public forum?? how dare you! heres some dirty socks too! *flings em over, they stink*

~edits are because im schitzophrenic when it comes to typing sometimes

[siafu]

that made me laugh.

i need to put lotion on my forehead.

i should also check my email

[bluecrayon]

I don't know what I would do with my early morning restlessness if I couldn't come spin around these QandQ's.

I get up at 530am every morning just to have an hour to play here before I head off on my bike to school and my classroom...

If Larrissa is a bully, I am the devil... ;)


and are those french fries passing as hair in siafu's avatar????

[siafu]

that dude's name is frylock.

he has braces and laser eyes.

and 70's mojo. maybe it's fry hair.

[sarahkate]

~ If I had french fry hair I would be bald because I would eat it all! Mmm...

~ Ewwww! *picks up Larrissa's stinky socks with some salad tongs and flings them into zanna's bedroom, where they will rot and fester until zanna gets home!* Mwahhahahaa. *picks some scattered Altoids off of floor, rubs them off and pops them into mouth* Mmmm.... minty fresh. *shoots some minty fresh spit balls at Larrissa's new hair-do"

~ Since the boyfriend is away for work this week I let my dog sleep with me (usually Cory won't let her onto the bed). Last night she wanted to snuggle (she really did!) which would have been fine except for the fact that it was about 90 degrees and humid and she is so big and fluffy, I just couldn't take it! I made her go down to the end of the bed.

[Larrissa]

i dont know why, but i put up more pictures. took them this morning. connecting at 18000 bytes and having a time limit breaks my heart.

mmmm espresso. i bet you didnt know but im about to go on a caffienated rampage, on what i dont know yet.

another thing i dont know ... lets see ... i dont know if the sun will come out today or if i will turn in my application yet ... :rolleyes:

[siafu]

the nap was a no go. i guess it's time to study.

i'm making a doll today. a gingerbreadwoman.

i'm cold. i need more clothing.

congratulations on the new grandbaby-to-be! :yay:

i'm eating cherries

one aspect i miss of actually living in the city: the dumpster in the alley that allowed me to get the trash out of my house whenever i felt like it, and not just twice a week.

[Cuilanië]

- I successfully made myself iced coffee today.

- Added bonus of iced coffee: I can make more tonight and have it on hand tomorrow morning when I stagger out of bed... :lol:

- I'm in the mood to go dancing...

[sarahkate]

~ Aha! My powers of mind control worked on Larrissa! I now see the after-hair. I likes it :)

~ I haven't had my hair cut in ...oooh....probably about a year! It's getting very long. When I'm sitting down it almost reaches my elbows.

~ It makes me sad to hear little kids call each other "gay" as an insult. The boys who live next door do this all of the time. I am going to make sure that when I have kids they know that gay does not equal bad! *sigh* :(

[Cuilanië]

- After checking the lyrics, I have confirmed that the Beck song 'Loser' does indeed mention both monkeys and cheese... :lol:

- I'm trying to find inspiration for a project. Gotta finish it soon, I won't be able to while my mother's here...

- She's arriving Saturday morning. I have to be at Orly airport by 8am. Means I'll have to leave around 7. sigh.

[bluecrayon]

I've always wanted to dance in Paris... sigh.

Staying up till 330am and getting up at 530am is starting to catch up to me...

I wonder if it's love or just crazy random music that is looping through my head... ???

[Cuilanië]

Hi cb! I see you lurking down there... :)

- I'm (again) considering letting my hair grow out. Or shaving it. It'll be one or the other, I don't have the money for a haircut... :lol: :P :ph34r:

- I've got good incentive to let it grow, though... :wub:

[indigo]

Pictures...?

Where?

Please tell me so I can see!!!!! :D

[siafu]

hi indigo. my name is siafu, well, theresa, really. nice to meetcha

go to the Topics That Don't Fit Anywhere Else.

there is a picture thread in there that shows Larrissa in all her cutiepie glory.

[Larrissa]

NO stop that! dont make me take them down :lol:

i guess i just felt the need to let everyone SEE who they were dealing with :D

yeah so i think im going to take the bus to the library and play on their computers, just not right now.

i think i will go make a new game or two

[Cuilanië]

Sometimes it's the same thing...

bluecrayon posted while I was posting, so now my 'lurking' comment makes no sense. :wacko:

I'm going to fix more iced coffee. Dangerous stuff. :D

[Cuilanië]

- If you go through the picture thread, you'll find pics of most of the regulars...

- It's been a while since I posted pics of myself. I don't have any recent ones...

- I'm sure my mother will take plenty, though... <_<

[siafu]

argh.

i don't want to listen to erwin chermerinsky :'(

only i can make myself. :angry: [face of determination]

[Cuilanië]

Go, Miss T! you can do it...

I've been resisting an urge to play video games lately. Diablo II is tempting me.

I ought to eat something more consistent than that piece of chocolate I had earlier...

[ibiddy_boo]

Hmmm....take im with a bit of chocolate Siafu...chocolate can get ya through almost anything ;)

i'm drinking coffee and doing sit-ups <_<

i really should be working on projects....a bit more coffee and then i'll get started.

[sarahkate]

~ watch out ibiddy_boo, doing sit-ups and drinking coffee at the same time could be, potentially, very dangerous! Oooouch!! :o ;)

~ I'm such a cornball. What is a cornball anyway? Has anyone actually even seen a cornball?

~ I have new post-it notes on my desk. They are the color of mint chocolate chip ice cream (minus the chocolate chips).

[siafu]

thanks, cindy! :)

today's flavor: substantial due process

i am not impressed by irrebuttable presumptions.

[ibiddy_boo]

If we're doing flavours....i guess mine would be bittersweet. Sure, the situps (if continued) will give me sweet reward (like getting back in my jeans!!!), but in the meantime, it's a bitter pill to swallow......i'm not an exercise buff.

Cornball....hmmmm i dunno sarahkate, but it sounds like something yummy to eat. Hey....don't trick me into having to do more situps so soon!

Siafu....hang in there!!!

[Larrissa]

"impressed by irrebuttable presumptions" that has too many syllables to make sense. :lol:

so im packing up a bag of art supplies to go sit under a tree at the park. and i notice on the shelf some atc's that arent mine. and suddenly i have an OH SHIT moment and realize i had forgot these jam atc's were due today. so i have fear of the wrath of mpurr. they shouldnt have all arrived on the same day like they did, but they did. :blink: and now they arent done, even though i kicked ass on them for about an hour. and i could mail them today, on time, but they arent done. and are still a little soggy. did i mention :blink: and she just gave me a feedback point the other day for "tolerating and obeying" her rules. AAAHHG! will i live or shall i be slayed for such a travesty?? it is yet to be known.

altered book making is helluva lot of fun. and my dog understands the word "go" and "walk" - shes beautiful.

[indigo]

Hi siafu/Theresa! Thanks for the welcome note!

In case you missed it, I am nymphette's sister.

I am not feeling well today.

I am going to go check out those pictures!!!

[bluecrayon]

my flavor would be fatigue, as in, my work year is over now, summer looms ahead of me, I stay up too late talking to him, my house needs to be cleaned, I have a grant to work on and all I can find the energy to do is dance around here like a spinning blue top... (okay, shoot me! that's about 14 facts right there pretending to be only one!)


I wonder how come I'm the only one who has posted a dream on Larrissa's new thread -- is this just more proof that I'm a raving freak??? I need to post my picture and really scare everyone here! :D


I'm gonna go There on Monday and maybe I'm dizzy...





I have nothing but faith in siafu to rock the world of law and save my legal hide someday!

[Larrissa]

PICTURES

BLUECRAYON

[thunderstorm_19]

i got the purdiest postcard from nymphette today... (THANK YOU!!)

it's HOT outside, and feels too cold in here (but, i turned the thermostat up 1 or 2 degrees so it wouldn't be quite as cold... )

i gots ta do some more planting outside...

[siafu]

i have been sleepless lately. i can't remember the dreams when i am just opening and closing my eyes. otherwise, i would post one.

the garbage company is pulling my chain. and there is only one! that should be illegal. <_<

ok, back to erwin.

ps. thanks for the props, guys, and the vote of confidence, blue.

Post pictures! Post pictures! Post pictures!!! :lol:

I'm thinking of dinner...

[indigo]

I just went through about 15 pages of pics.....

I started at the beginning of the thread then realized how old it was so went to the end.

Now I can put faces to a lot of your names!

[nymphette]

1: i made little sushi cakes with toasted sesame seeds in them.... and lots of pickled ginger to go with.... but i put too much wasabe in my soya sauce!!! :wacko:

2: what i would LIKE is a bottle of warm sake to go with it... but i'll settle for my tea.... since i have to.....

3: it's a late lunch... i just noticed the time!!!

[ibiddy_boo]

i haven't seen Larrissy's new thread.

i've been yakking on the phone.

i can't even stay and play or :ph34r: anymore....have to go....*sighs*

[nymphette]

1: my son is obsessed with marrying me... :P he's asked me twice gian today if i would mrry him....

2: hhmm.. is he insecure that i don't want to marry him any more because he is being such brat lately???

3: well he is.... a brat i mean...... but i'd still marry him if i wasn't taken.... ;)

[medeous]

it rained, so nan couldn't swim.

her friend had dance class, so nan couldn't play.

"hello, my name is: third choice" we'll be spending quality time shopping in teenybopper stores this evening.

[Larrissa]

hello, my name toiday is dumbass. misplaced a freaking lmao and cant find it - why me??? why??

job must get job job job slave job. not today its too cold outside. :ph34r:

why does my mom say i did nothing all day when i have spent hours an art?? why?

the question of the day is WHY??!! dont forget to indicate to me if you find the answer. thank you again for your cooperation.

[kamoke]

I slept with a gas mask on last night do to the lovely aerosol. (i gaurantee bladder problems when I'm older :huh: )

I went to work at 4:45 today. I punched in and went to the front to figure out what cash I had to go on. Turns out I was supposed to work this wednesday.

I'm either 6 and a half hours late for work or I'm a week early. I can never get it straight! :lol:

[nymphette]

1: dessert today was a nectarine and a red plum.... i am sooo wanting fresh fruits lately!! i have a pineapple ripening on the counter and it smells wonderful!!!

2: i'm pining for a big tim's.....

3: and the fiords.....

[Cuilanië]

Mmmmmm sushi... Now I want some. It's been ages.

I considered ordering sushi, but I fixed myself some pasta and chicken with tarragon instead.

Going back for beer. Would go well with this.

[nymphette]

1: now i want tarragon chicken... must be the combo of chicken and tarragon- i DID get my chicken salad sandwich the other day.... :)

2: i should bbq my zucchini and mushrooms for supper tonight to have iwth the rest of my sushi....

3: just me and my little boys tonight... :yay:

[bluecrayon]

I am finally leaving the house... at 2 in the afternoon.

this has been a crowded place today and I have loved spinning around through my fatigue... I absolutely LOVE this place sometimes.

tomorrow these stitches climbing up my neck come out and I wonder what shadows will remain for him to trace with his finger. :ph34r:

[Skilyne]

I have done nothing significantly productive all day.

I am trying (with no success) to cool down. It is hot and SO HUMID! The air clings to you in some sticky nasty way.

I am going to walk down and get some ice cream.

[siafu]

oh my gosh. i got the garbage company to fix my bill.

i feel like a champion.

i'm laughing at myself for being so pleased.

[nymphette]

1: :yay: for siafu!!!! hey, every little victory counts!!!!!

2: i made the invitations to julian's birthday party today... he's decided on spongebob squarepants.... definitely NOT mom approved..... <_<

3: and munchies for his party, no meal.... some of the guests i dont' mind feeding, others, well, they're family so they're invited.... hhhmmm... i hope indigo doesn't read this.... she'll feel left out.... :rofl: just kidding.... she knows who "tHeY" are......

[Cuilanië]

:yay: Theresa!

I want to smell the sea.

I want a hug from him.

I'm just full of wanting for things I can't have tonight...

[Skilyne]

Speaking of wanting things...

I want a hug from him!

I want to do some art, but I have no inspiration right now.

I want some ice cream...which I'll take a walk and get later.

1 so am i -- esp since it's 'camp day'

2 dad just got home

3 i would love to be able to debate more effectively...

[Dalmaney]

1. I am enjoying my job of planning all the fun events of the summer, but I wish it wasn't so many phone calls that people aren't there to take.

2. I got a whole stack of stuff from the library.

3. The Boy won't be home until 11 tonight. I haven't talked to him since Sunday, and I miss him.

[kamoke]

I'm starving but I don't really want to get up

I need to study for exams

i think i'll get up. maybe some macaronie in the mix

[Curlita]

Okay, you people, I was only on vacation for 6 days and you generated more than 40 pages of TRF's. How the hell am I supposed to keep up???

I caught a nasty cold on my vacation. Fortunately, it only ruined the plane ride home and my first day(s) back in the office.

I want to go home and drink something sweet.

- I want more ginger lemonade. I'll just go get some... mmm.

- I'm still hungry... <_<

[nymphette]

1: two pans of brownies cooling.... one with almonds in it... mmmmm.....

2: i do not like walnuts in my baking....

3: i didn't check to see if i had all my ingredients (big surprise...) and didn't hvae quite enough icing sugar for the frosting.... so it's a little fudgier than it should be i think.....

[nymphette]

1: laundry laundry laundry.... where the heck does it all come from????? :o

2: though i think i washed the same load twice today.... <_<

3: admitting that, it could be that i washed a few loads more than once... it sure seemed like i had a lot MORE than i usually do in a day.....

[moonweaver]

<<congratulations on the new grandbaby-to-be! >>

Thanks, Medeous; I'm very happy about that.

The funeral for my brother-in-law is Friday; a 3 1/2 hr. drive away.

Then I have to pack for my trip to Chicago, leaving Monday.

[Larrissa]

oh, bless the concept of "cute" & "adorable" and just plain beautiful :yay:

i feel all happy and :D-ny and while i was *trying* to organize my art supplies, i kept thinking of things that just made me laugh until tears. sheesh!

NTS: anyone who reads this? kick their ass

[Larrissa]

i am cheating the limit if you cant tell. the sister signed on a friends account :evil:

my ear itches

i have to go again, see you tomorrow!

[Lilac]

It's so freaking hot today I can barely breathe!

My Mom found marajuana growing up in the woods behind her house and CALLED THE POLICE!!! Damn! I would have liked to get a little of that before it was confiscated!

Of course, I could never let HER know that because she thinks I'm a good girl now. :D

Hey larrissa...if you want to cheat even more I will sign you up under one of my 8 free additional "family" accounts and send you my software for earthlink. ;)

But you have to PROMISE not to do anything :evil: so my hubby doesn't get in trouble!

I already have us on an FBI watch list. :o
