Awww...but you forget Lilac-I work with all men. I have for 3 years. My skills have been fine tuned. :lol:

I am actually a very laid-back person, and when people mess with me...I take it well.

Perhaps that is why I've lasted so long at my current job. They mess with me all the time, play tricks on me, and tease me. But I can take it and toss it back.
I'm very laid back myself.

Must run in the family.

Tanagee, how about you?

[gwensmom]

Tomorrow I am going to take Gwen to school and them come home and sleep all morning.

Half.com announced that they will not close down on July 13, but stay open until Oct. 14 so that people can shop during the back to school season. :yay:

I have yet to set up an auction on ebay. I have two things all cleaned, photographed, packed, weighed and ready to be listed. But I want to start the auction on a week night so that it will end on a week night and I am always too busy/tired on week nights! Maybe tomorrow.

I got a haircut today and so far I don't like it. I'll see what I can do with it in the morning and then decide if I hate it or not. Maybe I will do metallic blue, Larrissa.

I am very very happy about pantiesontherod's great news.

I couldn't send a message tonight because my mailbox was full.

[Skilyne]

Well, I really ought to go off to bed shortly.

After all, I have to at least be SOMEWHAT functioning at work! ;)

I'm SO THIRSTY for some reason...

[Lilac]

Goodnight sister dear!

Don't forget to brush your teeth!

:P

[Larrissa]

According to the little calendar thing June 16th was Nervousnesses Third Anniversary. Did I miss the party? Did we all miss the party?

I was wondering the same thing... I was online really early this morning, expecting some sort of celebration. :birthday: :rock:

But for some reason the "Chat" link wouldn't work for me, and I didn't see any posts about the anniversary. I ended up thinking I must have imagined that the 16th is N'ness B-day. :lol:

[hammerquill]

replevin is the recovery of specific personal property.

It sounds more like a new designer drug they'd advertize in magazines with two pages of fine print following a completely uninformative ad like "Isn't it time you asked your doctor about Replevin?"

I wonder if Theresa is also forced to learn definitions of things like flemesflit, grithbrice, infangentheor, and (my personal favorite) flymenafyrmth?

I think jargon that's conserved with precise meanings over 1300 (or more) years is fun.

"Isn't it time you asked your doctor about Replevin?"

:rofl: All those med ads make me crazy, especially the one for the viagra-type drug, where the woman is talking about how "her man" uses whatever it is, and she's saying things like "It works fast! I mean FAST!" It's almost porn.

Now I am curious about pantiesontherod's news. I'll have to go find out what it is.

I agreed to read a friend's husband's self-published thriller and critique it for him. Bad idea!

[Lilac]

I just cannot sleep tonight.

I'm not even slightly tired.

I'm having a cup of chamomile tea in the hopes that this will relax me enough to get drowsy.

[hammerquill]

The med ads that most get to me (mostly I see them on the subway or suchlike places, since I don't read magazines much) are the ones that don't even mention what the pill in question is supposedly for. They show a picture of flowers, or a woman jumping for joy, show a picture of a pill (gee, thanks), give an uninformative slogan like the one I gave, and the name of the pill. The utterly disgusting thing is that these ads seem to work. People do as their doctor about them. Then their doctor asks them the right questions, and they say (just as with a randomly chosen horoscope) "gosh, doctor, that's exactly it!" and get prescribed the pill. And you wonder why your health insurance premiums go up every month. [/rant]

If I had lots of money I'd conduct a sociology experiment: buy a few very expensive ad pages in a major magazine, and advertise a fake pill. The main ad copy would be completely uninformative. The fine print would say as clearly as possible: "This is a hoax, it is meant to cull the uninformed and gullible. If you do not wish to be seen as an easy mark, don't ask your doctor about this." Then I'd ask doctors to report how many people asked to be put on the pill.

I made myself a random stir-fry sort of thing tonight for the first time in quite a while. It worked well, but needed a different wine.

[medeous]

my father wrote a book

and i drew an okay picture for the cover

however, he also drew a bunch of not-so-okay pictures scattered throughout and didn't specify what was his work and what was mine. :(

[kamoke]

I wanted to reply to several things throughout the last four pages

Its 2:15 am, give me a break okay

My last final is this morning, which means I should be resting, for I wake in 4 and a half hours

[Sirius]

What type of book would you speculate that Medeous's dad would write?

I still have not read the book in which Medeous is a character.

I have a one-eyed monkey. Boy, does that sound naughty.

boy, does it ever. ;)

if i don't clean my house, maybe my parent's won't visit. :rolleyes:

more likely, they'll show up early and complain about the mess. :ph34r:

[kamoke]

I'm wondering about zanna, hmmm

It's official. Im going to england after school. with my sister or alone. its my second goal!

Goals are something I never understood before, but now that I have them, it sort of gives me something to shoot for!


Zzz zzzz zzzzzz . . . .

[hammerquill]

Though I get newsletters both from my university alumni association and from my major department (History), and though I still live near my university, it was something like half a year before I heard of the death of my favorite professor there.

I will always find it hard to believe he's dead.

I still haven't read any of his books, though one of them is well known within the discipline. He never assigned them; not his way.

Tanagee, how about you?
I am selectively laid back. Sometimes I am extremely high-strung. An ex once compared me to Sally from When Harry Met Sally. And I hate to be teased BTW.

I spent the evening "cleaning up" my hubby's website. The guy who originally did it had no clue about Drag Racing and all that goes with it, so since I am now the webmaster I changed most of the logo's and created links.

You can check it out if you want to DragTrans.com (http://dragtrans.com) the other one is RaceTrans.com (http://racetrans.com) but it doesn't have as much "stuff" to do on it.

"Isn't it time you asked your doctor about Replevin?"
I heard a comedian telling a joke about hearing an ad like that and remembering the name of the drug for the next time he went to the doctor. So he goes in for something random and as the Doctor is showing him out of the exam room into the waiting room he remembers and says "I forgot to ask you about Replevin." And the doctor loudly replies "You have Anal warts?"

[siafu]

omg...the replevin jokes have me giggling.

Hammerquill knows lots of legal English. Google couldn't tell me what any of it meant.

quick, Hammerquill, post some definitions.

[hammerquill]

:o

What makes you think I know the definitions?

Those are terms I came up with when reading Anglo-Saxon charters and laws. Since we were only studying them in general terms (this is undergrad medieval history), the meaning of most of them (especially weird ones like these) was rather unimportant.

I asked my teacher (the one who died and whose death I heard about much much later) what flymenafyrmth meant - it's my favorite for its patent absurdity in spelling and pronunciation, not whatever it happens to mean. He wasn't sure about the definition, but said to check... not the OED - too long out of date; not an Anglo-Saxon dictionary - too specialized. No, Black's Law Dictionary. Current edition. Because somewhere in England it might still be important to know some of the terminology of ninth- or tenth-century charters, because some terms of those charters may still be in force. Therefore Black's will still list them. At least some of them. This is why the historians deemed it unnecessary to footnote such bizarrities. I did look it up, once (and may even have looked up some of the others), but I no longer recall the details.

The English love this about their legal system. I have to admit, so do I.

{Edited because I still can't spell "flymenafyrmth." :P}

[ibiddy_boo]

:wave: sarahkate....i see you down there! :P

Goodmorning everyone!

I told J that he needs to deal with them now, because otherwise I am afraid that the Scary Pregnant Lady Hormones will rear their ugly head and I will start stuffing painting equipment into orifices.

Oooh...i recall those hormones....not to be reckoned with, that's for sure! ;)

i love Eve's yawnie guy!!

[ibiddy_boo]

Wicked storms yesterday, but gave one heck of an awesome light show.

i spent most of the day on the couch with a sore back.

Just as well....i got some work done on projects.

[ibiddy_boo]

By the way....thanks for sharing the Wonderful Vanilla Cupcakes (http://www.recipezaar.com/recipe/getrecipe.zsp?format=print&id=89751) recipe Siafu! Despite my wretched cooking abilities, i'm going to try them out. Sometimes my baking is ok.

Where's Larrissa today i'm wondering.

My back is still sore, so i won't be going to town today. i think i'll head over to the couch and work on more projects.

[siafu]

no problem. i mixed them by hand, so if you have a mixer, they should be even easier.

boo to tunnels in muffins and cupcakes. i didn't get too many last time, though.

ok, i have to say i'm cheesed off about the division of labor in my house right now. the one where i get to cook, put away food, and wash dishes. wtf. the response i got was, 'but i'm so tired when i get home from work. and i did housework on the weekend.' i'm not feeling that as a reply. even though i'm posting here, i'm not doing nothing during the day. i guess i'd better buy some ramen noodles and some chef mr. boyardee. where's my zen?

[ibiddy_boo]

:hug: to siafu for getting stuck with all the grunt work. i can relate i'll tell ya!! Although hubby has been pretty good since i hurt my back....but i have to ask. <_<

Tunnels are ok....less calories ;)

We (hubby and i) just went for a little stroll out in the yard and up the driveway. There are some of the most amazing mushrooms growing all over the place. We found some that look like cheese whiz globs....too cool! It's beautiful out....damp but sunny and warm. :)

[Larrissa]

im sorry theresa but "wheres my zen?" made me laugh :lol: i hate the excuse "but i worked all day" blegh, that sucked when the ex-he said that

i havent missed the ex-he once. i dont know what to think about spending so much time with someone i havent missed once im gone. :blink:

last night i wrote stuff. and some of it made sense this morning :yay: i feel relief when i can go back and say "yea, i understand THAT still." :rolleyes:

yes, i am in forums therapy.

[hammerquill]

:huh: tunnels in cupcakes.... Isn't that where you put the cream filling?

I got up ridiculously early (for me).

I confirmed my reservations for Paris.

I suppose I should come up with something else productive to do with all this extra time.

Bonus opinion (but I'm arrogant enough to include it with these facts): Divisions of labor should be by arrangement, never by default.

[Larrissa]

tunnels = overbeating, right?

damn me and my adding people to msn :D :D :D

i grin now.

[medeous]

division of labor is simple at our house.
i do it or it doesn't get done.
lately, it hasn't been getting done.

[Larrissa]

cindy needs to get msn too

i am going to go see about immigration/visiting/other country shite today. i bet its going to be expensive.

ummm, the firt thing i saw upon waking was the spackle in a "u" shape on the bare part of the garage wall. whoohoo~

[ibiddy_boo]

Hellooooo Larrissa! It's about time you're up and playing.

There seem to be a lot of people going (or wanting to) from country to country.

i hope everyone is having a good day. :)

[siafu]

i think i just heard that madonna is changing her name.

i appreciate your encouragement.

i am putting the sewing down for the moment.

[sarahkate]

~ Hello everyone! I just realized I have been parked in 3RF for a few hours now! I logged on and then had a meeting and then was talking to a coworker for quite a while.

~ I'm having one hell of a horrible day. I was supposed to be taking a vacation day today to bake some stuff with my sister for father's day but one of my coworkers who does the same job as me didn't show up so now I HAVE TO be here since my other coworker has to leave early today because he is in a band and they have a show to do today. <_<

~ At our meeting the boss went over results of a survey that we all filled out online, annonymously, and I was one of the people who marked "very unsatisfied" for many of the questions. Well, the boss was clearly bothered by this because I guess he was totally oblivious to the fact that he SUCKS and this place sucks so he said "I don't understand why all of these people who are unhappy are here. If you aren't happy with the job then why not leave? WHy keep working here?" Ok, so my boss would rather have me quit than show concern as to why I am unhappy? Great. Just another reason to despise my life. I really would like to quit right now. I was THIS CLOSE to walking out in that meeting since he obviously doesn't care if I'm working here. :angry:

[siafu]

aw sarahkate, that sucks. i'm sorry. it's definitely worse than doing too many dishes. at least i can switch to paper. it sounds like your boss might be taking the survey a skosh too personally. they were seeking feedback, right? people are allowed to be unsatisfied and still try to do their best. :hug:

i'm sorry you don't get to bake today.

you definitely still rock and we're still rooting for you!!!! :thewave:

[Larrissa]

sarahkate, even though you smell bad, i still think you rock.

and yes im wasting time.

i have ZERO cluie what to do for this LMAO that has arrived in my hands yesterday. i dont want to do something stupid and disappoint meika. and good god its stressful being the first one, getting an empty notebook. they are all going to see my work. NOOOOOO.

i should repeat my "what i learned" story but im lazy.

[sarahkate]

~ Aww thanks gals. :wub: *throws deodorant at Larrissa* (Hey, I don't use it, I'm stinky remember?! :P)

~ I am really putting some serious consideration into quitting. Staying here just feels like I'm selling myself short. Not that my job totally sucks, but still...

~ Oooh I don't know. I'm a horrible decision maker.

[Larrissa]

alright alright. must face real life. hygeine food and all that maintenence crap. oh and finding out about immigration.

i saw a south park last night that had a mountain of naked men "being gay" with each other. it was ... shocking .... disturbing .... fucking hilarious. there were a couple hundred men in that pile.

she thinks she has the same internet rights as I, who is on LEGALLY and she is going to CHEAT. dear sister, you are mistaken. i will be on until i sign off. screw you.

i said i would be back in fifteen minutes, but then i come back and hes gone :o damn.

[Curlita]

SK, being in a crappy job is like being in a bad relationship. Should I stay? Should I go? Can I do better? It sucks! Hopefully something better will come your way.

What is Madonna changing her name to?

I was listening to the 9/11 hearings on NPR this morning. It brought the whole thing back more than watching it over and over on TV ever did. Ugh.

[Larrissa]

wow, i forgot NPR existed. i should listen to the news sometime soon.. im hiding in ignorance.

ug, i dont wanna, dont wanna, dont make me!

hmm, i sat in the tree last night for two hours. it was relaxing.

[siafu]

Madonna is changing her name to Esther, evidently.

http://www.albawaba.com/headlines/TheNews....r=entertainment (http://www.albawaba.com/headlines/TheNews.php3?sid=279148&lang=e&dir=entertainment)

I wonder how that's gonna work out.

[sarahkate]

~ Esther?! That's ridiculous. :lol:

~ When my family first moved to NY, I was about 6 years old, and there was an old woman in our neighborhood named Esther. I called her "Esther Pester" because she annoyed me. She used to always yell at the kids in the neighborhood for being too loud or walking on her lawn. Crotchety old woman!

~ I think I will just have to tough it out at my job. for now, as sucky as it is. I really need lots of dental work done so I really should go to a dentist soon, might as well get something out of this damn company. It's also possible that they might reimburse my tuition when I go back to school in the Fall, so that's another incentive to stay I guess.

[Lilac]

I'm in a foul mood today, and I don't know why. Everything, just everything is annoying me!

I don't want to be here at work...but I don't want to be at home either...I think I'm feeling maybe a little overwhelmed by life in general.

Too much stuff to do, things to get done...people I need to talk with, things that need fixing, child that needs attention, animals that need care...

I feel as if I'm having a personl, private panic attack!

[Lilac]

Plus...I'm dreading that stupid vacation I planned on going on with my Mom...the one to Myrtle Beach. I just DO NOT want to go. I've been thinking about that a lot today. I want to spend time with my mother...but now I hear that my 2 aunts, my uncle and cousin are all going too. I want to pull my hair out! I just can not be stuck in a beach house with all those people!!! I'll go insane! I like my family and everything...but I can't be cooped up with these people for a week!


I hyperventilate just thinking about it.

I don't want to be in Myrtle Beach in the first place. I definatley don't want to be in Mytrle Beach with extended family smothering every iota of my personal space!

[Larrissa]

hello.

this is going to be the biggest fucking thing ive ever done.

if i live to do it, that is.

:blink:

[Larrissa]

tamara, just bring a couple blunts with you.

its okay.

tell the animals to wait.

[Curlita]

I like the name Esther, although I don't picture it going well with Madonna.

I wonder if this is part of her ongoing kabbalah thang.

I wonder if she will take back her old last name (Esther Ciccone?) or pick a new one (Esther Pester? hee hee) or just stay with the one-name moniker?

[indigo]

1: harrison bit me today... hard... as in he drew blood... little vampire baby brat!!!

2: i suppose i deserve it... i'm the bad mommy of the year, so....

3: though he wsn't mad or anythign when he did it- he had his face against my arm, giving me a kiss... then he just clamped down!!!!
Aaaaaawwwwww.... little Hairstein... (said in a Julian type voice) :wub: Reminds me of a certain 8 (almost 9) year old boy we all know and love (most of the time hee hee) You better watch out with that boy.... he's a little devil just waiting to bust out........ Enjoy him while you can... and while he is not walking... muahaha

I think I may have decided what I want to do when I grow up.
dont' keep us in suspense jodi!!!!
I want to be a Medical Laboratory Technician. But the wait list, as I found out upon further inspection, is 2010+!!!!!!!! :blink:

But I DID, however, also find out that I can start the course through correspondence/on-line training. SO I am going to look into that.

[indigo]

What a day... we are severely short-staffed so it has been a constant stream of phone calls.

I have already been b*tched at severely once today and had to hang up on a client once today. All of that happened before 8:30!!!

It is my lunch break and I really should get the heck out of here. :wacko:

[Larrissa]

its like calling someone and they arent home.

i wanna talk to you!

but i cant because my mom has decided its cleaning day. i have the kitchen.

oh and i found out a little about the international mving, mostly just jumbled shite, wtf do these terms mean? where the fuck do i start? arrgh. stupid government i dont have three hours to navigate your stinking phone system. and your website? http://uscis.gov? i would hack it to peices if i had the ability.

i am turning in more applications tomorrow.

i feel all joyful about life whenever i see a mailperson or a mail truck. :rolleyes:

She could always use her hubby's last name. Esther Ritchie.

:yay: Lefty and Beanie's pictures are posted in the Freaky/Geeky Headquarters thread.

My Hubby's best friend from Chicago is in town with his wife and 2 kids.

He was in my Blazer when it was involved in it's rollover accident and I am evily looking forward to him seeing the major POS car I am driving now so he can go back to Chicago and tell the other friend (who was the one that was driving my car) and they can all hopefully feel shitty about the fact that they are all driving brand new trucks and SUV's while I am suffering due to HIS mistake. (think I am a little bitter?)

[kamoke]

I'm finished school until september now, it has yet to hit me though

I'm painting another section of my wall. actually, i will go continue that after the third fact

.."those who are at the mercy of impulse - who lack self control - suffer a moral dificiency; The ability to control impulse is the base of will and character"

[Cuilanië]

I'm all dusty today from walking in the Tuileries gardens.

Alpaca and Lilac have new avatars... WOW.

The yawn can be found on the clicksmilies website... ;)

[medeous]

i'm on a short break.
my parents will be here in approximately 4 hours.
my house is not yet presentable, but i'm not going to get up for another 5 minutes.

[Curlita]

The day is flying by.

Maybe because I have a project (which is actually pretty fun) to work on that is due tomorrow.

I think when the museum closes in an hour I will take another break and go get something nummy. Although I've already eaten a brownie, so maybe I should try to control myself...

[Larrissa]

the kitchen needs to be hacked to peices too, damnit.

but i got most of it done. i have a grungy family, yep.

hmm, i wish i had something intelligent to say, but alas, i do not. this is not unusual.

:D :D :D

wonky sent me some links. i feel much better. now i just have to save up enough attention to go read all that stuff.

[indigo]

I have been wondering all day where nymphette is... then I remembered she had a bazillion appointments in the city today... (such a good remembering sister I am)

My typing today sucks.... thank heaven for Spell Check!!!
*The above sentence originally said (My typiong today sucks.... thenk heaven for Spell Chack!!!

I wish this day were over.

** Not a fact but a question really.... what are the most often visited places on this site for you guys...? Besides here of course... :D

[Cuilanië]

My mother leaves tomorrow.

It was good to see her, and talk, and wander around the city with her...

...But one week of it is enough. ;) :P :rolleyes:

[Larrissa]

:relief: so many wondrous helpful people.

maybe i could find what i need to know on this pile of sites and print it for later ... reading anything long on the monitor is just too much work.

i have to go do the kitchen floor now. see you in a few!

[kamoke]

the flies ate me whilest I adventured for some photos. it started to rain as well. thats what i get :rolleyes:

aggrivating random strangers on chat is so easy. Just don't tell them where your from or your last name and they nearly die. Then try to tell them its not important and get all funny on them. Im having fun

i should eat
AND MAKE SKOR BAR SQUARES! THANK YOU WHATS ON THE MENU THREAD! mmmm Im definatly making then right after i post this. just because

*spelling.too excited

[Larrissa]

you could chat with me, youre still set to "busy" <_<

i have fifteen legal minutes left.

sister wont let me use the minty screenname :'( i will live.

[gwensmom]

Kamoke needs to share the skor bar square recipe.

This has been a busy week and I'm glad it's almost over.

I have a feeling that Gwensdad is about to get on my nerves.

[Larrissa]

so siafu is going to call me in a few minutes

:blink:

i can handle it

[Dalmaney]

1. When I got bit by a cat and got a horrible infection in my hand, they told me that the only thing worse than cats for bites was babies!

2. I hope Nymphette doesn't get a nasty infection like the cat gave me.

3. It was in my mouse hand, and at the time, I worked all day on a computer.

[tanagee]

After working on my hubby's site and completing the first lesson of my online Dreamweaver course I now have a greater appreciation for all those people out there who make amazing websites.

I should be cleaning my house and taking a shower for we are having his friends over for dinner.

I tried to reason with Megan that if she took her nap she would be able to stay up later and play with Nichole, but logic and reasoning is lost on 2 year-olds...unless they are Vulcans. :lol:

[Larrissa]

well that went well miss theresa :D

thanks

i just signed on to say that

:wave:

[Larrissa]

okay so i couldnt pull myself away without clicking all over the place

:D :D i grin now

deep breaths.

[tanagee]

I wish someone would call ME.

But then maybe I would get all shy because it would be like talking to that boy you really like and hoping to god you don't say anything stupid and so it ends up being awkward and you don't say anything of any substance even though there is SO much you want to talk about.

So maybe this is better...I just feel left out.

[Larrissa]

hey tanagee, i will call you. seriously. whats your number? long distance is practically free for my momma :D

if i can do that i can do anything

i feel all buff-like

[Sirius]

I think if the dealership is going to keep your car for longer than necessary to do warranty repairs and graciously offer to put you into a rental car, the rental car should be comparable to the car they are holding hostage.

I feel like a little grey/gray mouse driving down the road.

Opting to not mention what I am driving because all of the Dodge Neon drivers in the forums might be upset.

[siafu]

i found one of the needles i lost, but it was just on my toe, not in my toe.

what great good fortune.

especially since i walked all the way to the kitchen with it on my toe.

[Sirius]

Siafu/Theresa should play her scrabble word before Curlita gets impatient.

Sometimes I am pretty sure I know a Nervousers real name, but when I am in the middle of typing a non-random fact, I don't want to exit to the main page to check. So, I believe it is Erica who will be impatient and that she went to U of A, but I wouldn't bet my life on it.

My one-eyed monkey is going to be my first Naked Mail to send. I've narrowed it down and am tossing a coin to decide who I am mailing it to....maybe I shouldn't have mentioned the one-eyed thing and just let them think it got lost in the mail.

[Lilac]

I GOT RAOK'ed today!!

Don't know who it is...but I'll find out!

Whoever you were....THANK YOU!!!!
THANK YOU!!!!
THANK YOU!!!!
THANK YOU!!!!







* need to investigate...who lives in Washington State?

[Lilac]

HA!!!! It's Curlita!!!!!

Thank you! I was so surprised and happy to find Nervous mail in my mailbox!

It's been a long time! :yay: :hug:

[Curlita]

You are welcome Lilac!

And yes, Siriustell, Curlita=Erica, and I went to UA. Bear down and all that.

Tomorrow night I am campaigning for Johnny Rockets for dinner. Onion rings and chocolate coke! Onion rings and chocolate coke!

[Larrissa]

i earned time by cleaning for hours.

my sister and i rocked out for a couple hours to MY music, and she enjoyed it.

im probably hurting my hearing with all this, but i enjoy it too much to worry about the future.

[Sirius]

whew. i was sitting here going Erica? Erin? Erica? Erin? It is rare for you to be referred to other than Curlita. I still picture you with the Viking Hat. With your current avatar I picture you wearing a 1950's polka-dot housedress. Really, it's a great image I have....

"smells like somethings burning" is not a good way to know that the laminater is ready.

The lights flickering is probably not a good way to know the iron is ready either.

So, you don't want to make an American Revolution ATC? Rockinghorse, where are you!?

[gwensmom]

Wheee I finally put two pieces of my clutter up for auction on ebay.

It was easier than I thought it would be.

I am a dumbhead for being so nervous about it.

[kamoke]

these are easy and yummy as heck!

·1 container of vanilla [betty crocker] whipped frosting

Method:
Crush crackers. Put 'em into a medium sized bowl and add the milk and half a bag of chipits. Put the mixture in a baking dish(it says nine inche square but the one I used was rectangular, so screw that). Yeah, then flatten teh "mixture" down. Bake it for 15-20 minutes (on 325 degrees) or until brown. Let the sucker cool down before putting on the frosting. then put on the rest of the chipits.
and according to what i wrote down, this should serve about 8 billion.. ;)

heres some pictures, just to make sure you're doing it right.. i guess?
actually i thought it would be fun ;)

[Larrissa]

why cant i come up with facts??!

i have talked to more people today than i have in a damn year at least.

Okay...what you've all been waiting for....pictures of:


THE LITTER BOX CAKE!!!!!

[hammerquill]

Madonna is changing her name to Esther, evidently.


I've been on tenterhooks ever since this was mentioned, waiting to know what the name would be.

I was kinda hoping she'd change it to Prince.

I hope she doesn't go back to the mundane world of the doubly-named... Just "Esther" on those album covers. "Tickets for Esther go on sale today" "Esther's die-hard fans..."

[Larrissa]

cake with turds. miss tamara, you kick ass.

now i dont have to blackmail you ;)

i must work on LMAOs tonight.

[gwensmom]

:rofl: Love the cake! Those actually look like peacock turds.

I got some fab new stamps yesterday. Olympic Games (http://shop.usps.com/cgi-bin/vsbv/postal_store_non_ssl/display_products/productDetail.jsp?OID=4849052) and American Choreographers. (http://shop.usps.com/cgi-bin/vsbv/postal_store_non_ssl/display_products/productDetail.jsp?OID=4849001)

[Helquin]

I'm a little more disturbed by that kitty litter cake than I care to admit. :blink:

I got some of those cool Olympics stamps too!

I've been self-conscious about using the word "cool" since seeing someone post a remark about its use. :huh:

I'm deciding not to alter my vocabulary based on one post I'm not even sure I read here now.

There are cats fighting outside my window.

Darn -- I swore I was gonna do the 3RF rule this time. . .

[kamoke]

I don't want to be on the computer right now

I want to listen to music load in my room and paint the other wall. take everything off it and paint the whole thing until the sun comes up

I want my own house. to paint every room the way i want. ceiling and floor. the toilet, the fridge. then i want to paint it over and start again

My yoga instructor called me Erin all day one day.

The hat in the pic is from the dress-up trunk at work, and is probably circ 1950s.

The baby had the hiccups tonight!

[kamoke]

Its true, boredom is a disease

i want to read more but cannot seem to pull myself to it

late night conversations with select people that can talk are amazing..

[Lilac]

I was just checking out Helquin's page (Hi Helquin :wave: ) because I'm not familiar with him here on the forums...and because I'm nebby...

...and I just wanted to say that I've actually been to Chilicothe!

Such a strange name...I've often wondered why it was called that. Old Indian name?

[Sirius]

When did Gwensmom because the expert on Peacock turds?

When did Lilac change her avatar picture back?

Brian summed up the turd cake, "That's wrong." Yea, I too would have skipped it, but if I had an eight year old who wanted to partake I would have let him.

Then again, I wouldn't be so sure that Lilac had an unused literbox.

scrabble. scrabble. scrabble.

:lol: :lol:

No cats in my house, Rustell...so the litter box was new! (Notice the sticker and 2 dollar price on the front of the pan!)

Although, you never can tell with me....

And I agree, looking at the pictures of that cake, it seems extremely distasteful! (kids LOVED it though...they thought it was the "coolest" thing.)

Actually "Chillicothe" (CHILL-uh-COTH-ee) is a bastardized Anglicization of the Shawnee word chow-a-gotha, which is generic term for "big town" or "meeting place."

There are other Chillicothes in the U.S. but Ohio's is the oldest... "frontier" town of white incursion into North America, from back when Wild West was Appalachian Mountains and Great Black Swamp.

Chillicothe is near the birthplace of a Shawnee who tried unsuccessfully to unite different Native Americans against expansion of nascent U.S.

Now his life story is an "outdoor drama" performed by white actors wearing dark makeup & black wigs. :huh:

[Sirius]

Interesting mistake (would it be a typo or aneurism?)

Brian signed up the turd cake should have been Brian summed up the turd cake

I am sure the kids did loved it...i've done the dirt cake with the gummy worms and that is always a hit...so this is just one more step.... :)

I think i might go to sleep soon...

[Helquin]

Now I'm wondering what Lilac was doing in a remote part of the world like Chillicothe. :lol:

I'm only pretending to know what "nebby" means.

I've been in here a long time tonight... :huh:

[Lilac]

Lilac had a friend in college whose father lived in Chillicothe. She talked me into going there for a weekend with her to visit.

I don't really remember much about the place except that it was really flat! :lol:

"Nebby" is, I think, a Western Pennslyvania colloquial term meaning something like "prying", but not in a bad way. :D

:huh: oh no, Chillicothe is hilly hilly hilly... you must have approached from Columbus, along Scioto River Valley plain ;)

Just when I was feeling all pouty about never getting RAOK'd I got RAOK'd :lol:

I have to clean my house before 4 July and I'm not feeling very enthusiastic about the task <_<

[Lilac]

Okay...I really do need to get to bed now.

Goodnight.

I mean it this time.

[ibiddy_boo]

I tried to reason with Megan that if she took her nap she would be able to stay up later and play with Nichole, but logic and reasoning is lost on 2 year-olds...unless they are Vulcans.
Amen to that sister! :D

Johnny Rockets?? :blink:

Wow....love those cakes kamoke and Lilac...thanks for the pics! Uh, kamoke...your fingers are green. Lilac that pan and those little poops make it so realistic. :D

Hello! It's 10:42am, and I'm still not quite awake... -_-

Allergies are killing my nose. Itchy. Poor little nose... :(

It's hard to feel properly sorry for myself when I'm talking to him. :D :wub:

[Larrissa]

5:47 am, a bathroom break turns into this

i just read posts for thirty minutes and went back to the new post page, my name only shows up twice??

i want to get intoxicated with someone and talk all night.

[Purple]

hmmm ok ok here we go. 3 random facts prompted by a pinapple eating Larrissa.

-Im going out in about 20 minuets to go buy films about Vikings. Possibly the 13th Warrior and the Long boats (long boats? long ships...im not sure but I know what it looks like mwa!).

-My boyfriend is named Jeff

-He reads to me on a night, Norse Mythology of which we are both addicted to learning about.


(yay! I listed my 3 very viking themed facts tee hee)

- Purple
xxx

[thunderstorm_19]

- i don't think i posted in here yesterday

- i think i am going out this afternoon -- a couple friends want me to go apartment hunting with them -- not because i'm moving in with them (i'm not), but because i apparently know what i'm doing

- i *just* sorted out with my sister what we'll do for father's day this weekend...

[Lilac]

Okay...if there was any doubt about me being a hick hillbilly...see below and judge for yourself...

In my family it's Nebby Nebshit and is used to call someone nosey. Parts of my grandma's family lived in Ohio (or O-Hi-ya as she says it) so that's probably where it came from. :P

Now that Megan has had her breakfast and is watching the Disney Channel I think I am going to go take a snooze on the couch.

We all did not get to bed until midnight, yet she is bright eyed and bushy tailed and I feel like I have been rode hard and put away wet.

[Larrissa]

frickin chiggers!! i had forgot all about those little assholes! argh i will destroy them!

in texas i would have 20 or 30 of the fuckers on me

i itched to no end

[Larrissa]

in the beginning i was scared to cuss in here.

thought of it like a public place.

then i found how much fun it was to bother sirius.

and then she turned into miss moderator.

now i cant stop.

:lol:

[Cuilanië]

Wandering around outside all week has done ruined the artistically pale (a.k.a. sickly) complexion I'd worked so hard to develop. :lol: All those long hours sitting inside, for nothing!! :rolleyes:

meow.....

I'm tired for some reason. Sigh.

[ibiddy_boo]

Hi Larrissa! i brought some antibacterial soap for that potty mouth of yours! :lol:

There's a bad storm headed this way.

i discovered i made a porno box bot (quite by accident!).... :lol:

Yeah, I gotta work hard to get pale. I tan real easy. :rolleyes:

In fact, there's a dark spot at the nape of my neck, on the left side, marking the place where I got that sunburn last week... :P

Someone's hammering away at something in another apartment; the sound's carrying all over the courtyard. It sounds like either they don't know how to hammer properly, or they're banging on the rim of plastic pots to close them hermetically. Whatever it is, I wish they'd stop...

Have you tried eating the CDS??

I'm going to eat granola later on today.

I like granola.

[siafu]

:lol: hi

my hand feels much better if i sit at heidi's computer

at least i can study over here during the day.

i'm obsessed with making myself a pair of shoes.

look at this. http://i.timeinc.net/sunset/archive/1943/C...arShoes1943.jpg (http://i.timeinc.net/sunset/archive/1943/CaterpillarShoes1943.jpg)

you have to left click the image and size it to fit the window to be able to see, but man, they are so cool.

[gwensmom]

I took the fried TV in to the repair place to see if there is anything they can do about it. they said it was too big and I would have to take it home and call a repair person to come to the house. <_< The appt is Monday.

somebody bid on one of my ebay items. :yay:

I get to go out to dinner at a nice place tonight.

At work I had to give a tour that was partly outside and it is hotter than Hades here today with sky high humidity. You can bet my hair is looking real good about now :P

I bought Gwensdad a strawberry moon pie today. It looks pretty icky.

Sending huge :hug: and lots of :wub: to Nymphette

[chaosisorder]

Car insurance shopping *twitch*

Lovely rainstorm outside.

Hoping lightning will strike through phone and electrocute insurance salespeople.

[Obsidian_Cat]

I've had two GIANT cups of chai today, and I don't think I'm finished yet.

I spent half the afternoon debating with my co-workers whether there it would be considered a desecration to create a "gay" image of Uncle Sam for an ad I'm doing... I think it's ok.

I watched "Lord of the Rings" for about the 10th time last night...

[Obsidian_Cat]

And because I've been lax in my posting this week...

My office is so cold I'm wearing winter clothes even though it's 90 degrees and humid outside.

My great aunt just gave me a really cool vintage sewing machine from 1897... and I think it' been gathering dust for about the last 100 years.

My black cat, Inigo, spent half of last night jabbing his nails into my toes while I was trying to sleep.

[Larrissa]

i will kill the next cat that stabs me toes.

not really.

im feeling lightheaded and a bit lost.

[Purple]

hmmm this is interesting. More fun than I had first though and yet quite sad according to my bf who is being ignored while I play mwa!

-yesterday I found out bluebells are blue because of the soil PH, if its acidic they actually turn pink, which is why sometimes you get pink bluebells there not a seperate species there the same just a different soil PH. if you put them in vinegar they will also change (um...but I wouldn't advise it tisn't nice for the flowers *looks over at Larrissa and that ominous bottle of vinegar she has in her hand after reading this*).

-Im going to watch 13th Warrior tonite (sticks to her viking theme for the posts today) and possibly with half the population of the student halls.

-Im only going to be living in student halls for one more week. *sadness* (then we all get booted out and I go live with my bf for 2 weeks).

- Purple
xxxx

[Larrissa]

nah, i can get some sulphur from cindy (for the chiggers) and just use that to change the PH. nice to see you purple!

i munch pistachios rabid-like.

this whole thing has so much to do with luck i am boggled. i just cant plan any meaningful plans to make it happen. it just must be on its own. oh and i have to work my booty off to earn cash. cant forget that part.

[Skilyne]

I had an interesting day at work.

One of the guys attacked my legs with blue paint...INDUSTRIAL BRIGHT blue paint. Water doesn't take it off...so I had to use solvent...and even then, there are still traces of blue. *sigh*...they make me laugh. But what possesses a person to attack another's legs with bright blue paint in the middle of work?

There also seems to be a bit of this lovely paint in my hair. UGH.

They were concerned I might be upset, but I wasn't.

[kamoke]

I got some photos developed today

Its so pointless to try to get ideas across to people that don't want to listen

This girl randomly calls me from another town. Today i was walking home and her and her friend tried to give me a ride. They are scary as hell and I've never met her/them before in my life! yet they knew me :o

[Purple]

:o not the bluebells Larrissa. (wait aren't they a native spring time flower of england?)

-Has just eaten a thorntons Choc-toffe and it was very niiiiiiiiceee *drool*

-MY bum is going numb sitting on the floor with this lap top I am using the internet on.

-Is about to disapear

[Larrissa]

i see you purple! have you noticed the active users list in the bottom corner?

i lika the pistachios

its still cold

[Purple]

owwww ek! *runs away* (um cant sit still, catch me if you can Larrissa)

-Im watching Rod (the person whos computer Im using) pace about waiting for his washing to be done and for me to move off his computer so he can play vice city again.

-Is taking an extra long time at moving, possibly on purpse, but also possibly because this is fun and theres not much else to do other than paint ATC's and watch 13th Warrior in a bit...mwa! Viking fun!

-Im also wondering if my um bf, Jeff (I mentioned him earlier, hes like my left arm) is playing Age of Mytholodgy (he always plays that when I go away, or watches family guy).

- Purple

I am wondering why nymphette needs hugs and if perhaps I have missed something... :unsure:

I just talked to her a little while ago.... okay at about 10:00 this a.m.

I burned my finger real bad this morning and it is still stinging.

[nymphette]

1: i am wondering if indigo burned her finger because her son tried to burn the bathroom down again.. :P

2: thanks to gwensmom for the :wub: 'ing.... i needed it... or a smack in the face, either would have helped....

3: we might be buying a very used minivan... we will need one when baby is born, but i really think we need a second vehicle NOW... with all the appts harrison has, plus all my prenatal/etc stuff *I* will have, plus general life, i can't handle the all day marathon time in the city waiting for chris to get off work at 5... if i have an appt at 9 am, then i'm in until he's off because i dont' want to drive back and forth and back and forth..... not that we can afford it, but it is only going to be (under 2000) a bit of money, as long as it works well so we dont' go broke fixing it....

1: julian pitched a fit at the mall yesterday too, while we were in the city, post appts....

2: when he was very little, i told him if he pitched a fit at the store we'd leave... i had to abandon a cart of groceries once and leave a cart of stuff at walmart once, maybe twice, but it cured him of the public scenes....

3: but he's become quite the rotten boy the past month... i am trying to figure out if it is because h'es been COOPED UP inside, almost EVERY day because of the cold and rain, or if it is because he knows i am having a baby... he was incredible when i was pg with harrison, and very mature about everything and interested.... he seems to be about this one (he kisses my belly and tells me he loves "ROSIE" all the time) but who knows what is going on....

4: it's making me lose my mind... and temper...<_< poor boy.... so i am going overboard with his birthday party to make up for being a bad mommy lately..... he even got to pick his theme (spongebob... blech) and i didn't try to talk him out of it, just to make him happy....

[indigo]

nymphette is the farthest thing from a bad mommy.... we ALL lose our tempers with our children and I cannot even begin to imagine what you are going through with Harrison and being pregnant and having very little support... <ahem>

I think the Sponge Bob party will be wonderful! Julian loves you very much and he knows you love him too.

I did not burn my finger in a fire... <_< Brat. I hit the top of my finger on the burner/broiler thing in the toaster oven and it like melted the skin. It was disgusting. You could literally SMELL the burnt skin.

[nymphette]

so, like the back of my hand when i burnt it at momma's???

and it looked like bacon the next day???

and then like piece of ham left on the counter that's curled up and turned all purpley???

so what are you saying??? you should start to support me more??? :P

are you coming over this weekend to work on some lmao's???

screw you, you're not invited....

i mean, come on over!!!

i only said that because i am having shepherd's pie for supper tonight and it has mushrooms in it so you'd complain anyhow....

i'd share if you ate NORMAL food ever...

[nymphette]

1: :wave: hello julie!!! i see you!!! how many weeks left till baby says hi???

2: i am going to the dentist on monday... just for a checkup, i am not letting them do anything....

3: i haven't been to a dentist for 16 years... since it stopped being free and done by students...... i am not looking forward to it, i know they are going to tell me they have to yank all four of my wisdom teeth.... <_<

[nymphette]

1: julian and harrison both have dentist appts on monday too...

2: i hope the doctor doesnt' tell me julian's a freak with his extra tooth!!! :o ;)

3: and harrison needs a check up to rule out any sources of infection- for his transplant work up....

[kamoke]

-> looks like I'm drinking tonight. first time in a a month... ;)

-->New adbusters today, I'm fully in love. Though I'm increasingly become more aware of the world, and I'm not quite sure if its doing me good or bad..

-->I hate that damn pentax me super. The only pictures I wanted to come out never came out due to that piece of shit. I think it's due to the piece of junk winder. That camera is out of my hands now, my canon is my love! :wub:

[Cuilanië]

Hey Robyn, :hug:'s!!

- Those shoes look cool, Theresa.

- I'm having fun with the fictions thread...

- I spent a lovely hour up on the observation deck at the airport. Despite the plane traffic, I found it's a rather peaceful place.

[nymphette]

1: :wave: eve!!!!

2: fresh pineapple and nectarines.... mmmm.... screw supper.....

3: nothing else to say right now....

[indigo]

I think that eating fungus (ie: MUSHROOMS) is abnormal. Not the other way around. So there. :P to you nymphette

If the dentist calls Julian a freak I will have to take him out back and kick his ass.

Or perhaps we could just call on............

<sound of horn blowing> Do-do-do-do-dodo!

Rain Man and The Extra Tooth!

hee hee hee

[ibiddy_boo]

:wave: Hi y'all!

i have developed more chiggers. i even have one in the corner of my eye. My eye for crying out loud! Terry says i'm sweet meat to these GA bugs. i must be. <_<

Robyn it's nice to see you in the forums....i haven't seen you around in awhile. :)

siafu those shoes are cool! i've been wanting to make some for a long while now....kind of slip on things, similar to the ones you gave the link to, but without the ankle tie. If i ever find time, i just might try my hand at it.

[indigo]

I bought white nectarines (? - what's the difference?) and pears the other night and have been enjoying them very much this week.

I gave in and bought a Dr. Pepper today... after a week and a half of water and diet pop only.... it tasted HORRIBLE. :(

I am working for an extra half hour today to make up for time I missed this a.m., and there are three others here but the guy who sits kind of behind me is sitting in his desk doing NOTHING. He is not answering the phone at ALL. It is pissing me off. But then he is a dick to begin with so....... <_<

[nymphette]

1: i'm around a bit, just never have anything intelligent to say so i dont' post... i used to just post anyways, to hell with saying anything intelligent, witty or clever.... ;)

2: this place is therapeutic.... *

3: supper is in the oven.... i have a couple batches of casseroles in my freezers.. i decided to at least two nights a week, make up a few dishes and freeze them.. it's going to be (well, in theory.. this spring has been sucky so far!!!) too hot to be cooking at 4-5 in the afternoon, so i'll spend evenings/nights making suppers up so they only have to be reheated for half an hour or so.... that and when i am pregnant, i am lazy and don't feel like cooking.... i think i've mentioned that a time or two though.... and it isn't fair to pawn off kraft diner or corn dogs or weiners and beans on julian more than once a week or so.....

* but is not intended as a replacement for psychoanalysis, ativan, anger management classes, est, paxil, or electric shock therapy.... consult your doctor....

[nymphette]

white nectarines are just THAT MUCH yummier than 'normal' ones... but not worth the extra money!!!! only because nectarines are just too yummy to begin with!!!

chris and his brother are looking at that van today....

i am going to a movie with my momma and sister tomorrow!!!! can you believe it??? two movies in less than a month, after nothing for years???? :o

[siafu]

i think julian is a great name. every time i read it, i say wow to myself.

i want to eat something but i'm not sure what.

my hand is so much better.

[gwensmom]

This morning I thought I was reading 3 random facts but was actually reading 3 random fictions. It shocked me for a minute!

I am still out of rubber cement. :o

Tomorrow I will take pictures of some more stuff for ebay. My sister, the closet nazi, gave me bonus decluttering points for putting up the first two auctions.

[indigo]

I can't wait to go see a movie with my wonderful Mama and fantabulous sissy poo!

I did not know they were more expensive. I just bought them and then saw the sign said "White Nectarines" <shrug>

What van?

**But I am going now so you will have to tell me later! Call me!**

***The previous "Call me" comment was meant for nymphette only. PLease everyone... do not, I repeat, do NOT bombard me with telephone calls tonight!!!***

:lol:

[nymphette]

1: i like those shoes too siafu!!! i keep thinking that i should start a "deco a pair of flip-flops and send them on" LMAO.... they are so cheap, you can get a pair of thongs here for like 2 bucks!!! it would be fun... i dont' know if anyone else would think so though..... :huh:

2: what am i doing in here ignoring my boys???? meh.. they don't want me right now anyhow, julian was doing a puzle and harrison's driving a toy ATC around on the floor..... they dont' need me to spoil their fun.....

3: though all my fruit is in the kitchen................ and i can hear it calling me......

4: bonus: harrison might NOT be allergic to milk... he broke out in the same hives, withe the swollen grape-under-the-eye as when we thought it was the change to milk in his formula.... unles of course he broke into the fridge during his feed when i wasn't looking and helped himself to some yogurt or cheese.... <_< :ph34r: :lol:

[nymphette]

3: though harrison is NOT named fter harrison ford.....

<sigh> oh well, it was a great name till we realized that.... ;)

[nymphette]

1: i recieved a card from curlita a couple of days ago (and of course forgot to come here and post!!!) and it's so cute!!! thanks erica!!!

2: and another pretty photo postie from gwensmom!!! i am sooo jelous of the COLOR in her yard!!!!

3: and a wonderful HUGE package (that i guess i'll share with indigo.. :P) from medeous, full of awesome goodies and you wouldn't believe all the wonderful randomness!!!!!

:wub:

[Skilyne]

My name is Erica too, and every time I read it in the forums (in reference to Curlita), it throws me off! :)

I bought more film today. I'm a photo nut. Last year, when I went to NYC, I took 13 rolls of film in 4 days. But I've got some great pics...

I am SO tired right now. I know I ought to just go to bed, but I am also SO stubborn.

[Skilyne]

I've still got blue paint on my legs (see earlier post if you are curious)

I want someone to come on the boards and play!!!

I'm still tired, but still just as stubborn.

[Skilyne]

Yes...as you can see, I am still here.

Lilac, Larrissa, Gwensmom, Bluecrayon (although I know where you are), Kamoke, everyone else...where are you??? *echoes in the empty forums*

Oh my gosh...I get it now. You are all avoiding me. :P

[Astabeth]

I like Vikings. And Anglo-Saxons. I'm very interested in Viking and Anglo-Saxon stuff, especially their textiles.

Lorelei finally let me put her down. She has been babbling up a storm today. She has stopped eating baby food - only got one jar in her in the past two days. I guess she's decided she likes table food...and cheerios.

I don't have a third fact.

I think that eating fungus (ie: MUSHROOMS) is abnormal.
I'll second that. And the fact that I know multiple* people who have allergic reactions to eating fungus it further backs that opinion.





*two ;)

[Lilac]

I'm tired but I don't want to go to bed. I want to stay up and play chain games because I know tomorrow is going to be a busy day and I don't know if I'll get a chance to play!

My son is spending the night at a friend's house...so it's just me and the dogs tonight.

I'm so tired I feel like I'm stoned....

[Skilyne]

I'm so tired I feel like I'm stoned.... I'll second that.

I'm tired but I don't want to go to bed. I want to stay up and play chain games because I know tomorrow is going to be a busy day and I don't know if I'll get a chance to play! I'll second that one too!

I am going to a barbeque tommorow!

[Lilac]

Well, Skilyne...I hate to leave you alone tonight, but I've got to drag my sorry butt up the stairs to bed. My Dad will be here at 7:30 tomorrow morning to help me do some stuff around the barn.

Why is it that parents always want to do things so God-awful early in the morning? What's wrong with, like noon?

I'm not going to complain too much, though, because I'm just glad I have a Dad around to help me with stuff!

[Skilyne]

I ought to do the same Lilac.

Sleep well.

Yes...parents seem to want to do things too early...I get up early for work...the weekends ought to be MINE! ;)

[medeous]

i like mushrooms.

i'll eat the mushrooms of indigo's and rustell's pizza and they can have whatever meaty stuff is on there.

anyone want an opened liquorice altoid's tin? about 90% full

[Astabeth]

i like mushrooms.

Blech!

:( Medeous forgot that I don't eat meaty stuff

Chicken is not meaty stuff :rolleyes:

Yes, medeous is supposed to remember every detail i've mentioned in 4000+ posts. :blink:

[medeous]

i remember everything sirius has ever posted.

i was testing her to see if she remembered.

i am going to send siafu that tin.

[tanagee]

I too think eating mushrooms is WRONG! I figure if it is growing on and feeding off of something dead it is not a good thing.

I am even not a big fan of Blue Cheese cuz it is moldy cheese.

We are going to the beach tomorrow with all the other yahoos.

[Helquin]

Reading this thread has made me hungry for some moldy bleu cheese and edible fungi! :lol:

I learned a lot about emus today!

I'm feeling very frustrated by the high cost of color photocopies.

* Edited to add: I especially loves me a big ol' batch of fried wild morel (http://www.morelsgonewild.com/Home.htm) mushrooms! Mmm-mmm ^_^

[Larrissa]

now why the holy hell was helquin reading three random facts from three months ago? huh? i didnt think anyone would ever notice.

guess what guess what? i was incredibly social yesterday. first i talked to james for two hours in the IM's box, then later i called siafu, and we talked for 38 minutes, and THEN i called ibiddyboo and we talked for 40 minutes. (my phone has a timer on it) i felt so buff. :lol:

i had a dream theresa and i were hanging out and she had this really light blond hair.

[ibiddy_boo]

Goodmorning and happy Saturday to y'all! :)

Guess who called me last night (giggle).....little Miss Larrissa herself! She sounds so cute in rl, and she's very very nice! i enjoyed our chat. :)

The chigger in the corner of my eye has grown, and i look like a freak. At least looking at myself through my one good eye, i appear as a freak. Depsite all my home remedies (no sulfur as yet), i'm still very itchy and all those bumps are bigger. Death to chiggers! Death to chiggers!!

[Larrissa]

:rofl: im so sorry about the chigger in your eye. its not funny i know.

i am um, nine days past deadline on this, shes nice though. and i am going to freaking send it in a day or two.

i can't believe i talked on the phone. im such a wuss :D

[ibiddy_boo]

Why is it that parents always want to do things so God-awful early in the morning? What's wrong with, like noon?
Lilac my folks are the opposite. When i went to visit them in January, after 50+ hours on the bus, i caught a cab from the bus depot to their house and arrived a little after 11:30 am. It was a freaking cold day, and i was in a dress and a non winter jacket. (coming from GA i didn't have a bulky one). The door was locked so i rang the bell. Nothing. i knocked. Nothing. Finally, i went around to the side of the house and began shouting as loud as i could.....hey you people, i'm here and i'm cold, open the door!!! That got them up. It also broght all the neighbors within earshot to their windows. My parents aren't normal.

My back is still unbelievably sore. i can't see a doc....no insurance. i'm cranky.

On a positive note.....i just finished making myself an ultra cool foot stool for under my computer desk. It's made from 2 phone books, and is covered in duct tape. i think Gwensmom supplied that idea in a post a long while back. Thanks Sarah....i love it! :)

[ibiddy_boo]

:spank: Quit laughing at the chigger in my eye little miss smarty pants. :P

9 days late....you're in trouble, you're in trouble...na na na na na

No, you're not a wuss....you're cool. :)

[ibiddy_boo]

If Larrissa tells anyone that i'm a slob, don't believe her. Y'all have seen pictures of her mess, but no one has seen pictures of mine, so therefore i cannot be like her at all.

i am in awe of madeous' awesome memory!

i can't even remember what time i woke up this morning.

[kamoke]

Mmm, breakfast :) chickin in scrambled eggs is so good

I have a headache

its raining, and I have to walk to work..

[Larrissa]

ooooh :evil: someones going to pay for that

it was the kind of funny thats also bitter. the kind that you dont cry from laughing too hard, but your belly starts to hurt.

:angry: youre going down!

[Larrissa]

me mind is boggled!

immigration my ass.

this so doesnt make me an idiot *ahem*

[Larrissa]

ggggrrrrr.

rawr.

grumble.

[Larrissa]

i just all yelled in frustration at my sister.

she says i need a break.

i just might.

[Larrissa]

"Congratulations! You are taking a big step. Moving to a new country offers exciting opportunities and new beginnings!"

whoohoo.

damn straight.

i dont think that will answer any of my questions.

[Dalmaney]

1. On becoming Canadian, I recommend "How To Be Canadian" by Ian and Will Ferguson. It also won't answer most of your questions, but as a Canadian, I thought it was pretty funny, and an itegral part of becoming a Canadian is acquiring an appreciation for Canadian humour.

2. Another essential part is learning to put the "u" in humour... and colour... and stuff like that.

3. I have been reading "Utne (http://www.utne.com)" magazine for the last couple weeks. I think many people here would really appreciate it.

[Larrissa]

i love the way the united states is invisible. we would do the same for them. ever watch the weather channel? we act as if they dont have any weather. i find this immensely amusing.

im making progress. a couple pages of notes.

I should have chosen Crabbypants as my 'ness name as that is my general mood most of the time.

My other alter-ego is Pigpen.

[Larrissa]

"People normally line up or queue according to the principle of "first-come, first-served." They will be angry if you push ahead in a line-up instead of waiting your turn. " NO! i never would have guessed.

"You should always arrive on time -- at school, at work and for any meeting. People who are often late may be fired from their jobs or suspended from school. Many Canadians will not wait more than 10 or 15 minutes for someone who has a business meeting. For social events, people expect that you will arrive within half an hour of the stated time. " heehee i find that funny too.

"Canadians respect the natural environment and expect people to avoid littering (dropping waste paper and other garbage on the street or throwing it out of your car). They will expect you to carry your garbage until you can find a proper garbage can." whoohoo! no litter!

[Larrissa]

if its as easy as i think it is, i hate the world for making it so difficult to understand the simplicity. :yell:

i will be okay. the music makes it okay.

it says i must be healthy. i may have to see a doctor. and that scares me.

BREATH. like she said, my heart wont explode.

you know, every time i think she isnt going to be around, she is. and then i look like an ass. oh well. better they know now than later, right? :D

[Curlita]

Skilyne/Erica! How are you feeling? I don't remember reading an update after your icky spell.

I'm happy that this is the end of my work week!

I like mushrooms as long as they are cooked. My husband likes them raw, but they are too squishy and spongy that way. I also like all kinds of moldy cheese. Mmmmmm, fungus!

[Curlita]

I see Julie, too! Hi Julie! How is the baby doing? Do you have a name picked out yet?

Cindy, Johnny Rockets is a 50s-style diner that I'm addicted to. They have sloppy burgers and onion rings and you can get flavored cokes. I'm a huge fan of chocolate cokes.

We didn't end up going the other night. I'm still gaining weight at a rapid pace, so we went for a walk instead. Simple things like walking are getting harder, but I need to keep doing it. As a bonus, I slept really well last night.

[Curlita]

From reading Larrissa's excerpts, I'm starting to think that I belong in Canada.

Often, my three random facts become something more akin to "three random paragraphs."

I hope that no one is bothered by this.

[Astabeth]

for ibiddy_boo: Know thy enemy (http://mdc.mo.gov/nathis/arthopo/chiggers/)

I have a rash of chigger bites across my lower back above my waistline - I've had it off and on (mostly on) since it's been warm - April? I finally decided I'm not sitting on the cushioned swing at my mom's anymore :angry:

I decided I better not scratch them anymore - it kind of looks like I'm scratching my butt. <_<

[Larrissa]

fifteen minutes left. no one around to talk to.

i shall go do something productive, just not this moment.

hmmmm. silence.

- The boys down the foundation corridor of my student halls are trying to figure out all the problems with inventing a state board chair corridor race death game and putting Tim one of their number upon the chair of doom and sending him hurtling down the corridor at about 20 mph.

1 Purple: Your song is seven wonders by Fleetwood Mac

2 Edit: I forgot to add a second and third fact

3 The statment above is in itself a fact, therefore, making this sentence a fact.

[Purple]

- Now feels enlightened thanks to eraserQueen. Kudos...enlightenment is hard to obtain.

- Has bought 2 new sarongs today for 6 pound. Feels bad for spending the money but happyier for owning my first sarong (and will proberbly buy more when the time arises).

- HAs only got 6 more days of living in student halls (live it up man lol).

3 Wonders what Purple's Sarongs look like...

4 Bonus fact: Can't spell!

I'm having difficulty with the word "Né()û“µi‡T". If Eve were online I'd ask her, but since she's not, maybe another Canadian can enlighten me. Does the doubled  change the pronunciation at all? and is the ‡ long or short? :P

Yesterday (starting from midnight) I made a plum galette, slept, installed drywall, worked on brass vases and wallpieces, and went to the symphony.

My mother was performing with the Oakland Symphony Chorus, along with the Berkeley Symphony.

She joined this season (after not having sung in public for almost twenty years) just to get a chance to perform with Berkeley's Maestro Nagano.

I know I'll never convince anyone I didn't bribe Curlita to say that, so maybe I'd better just pay up.

My parents have WAY too many cars all of a sudden.

I keep coming up with great fictions when trying to think of facts, and vice versa. And I usually forget either way before I switch over to the other thread. Perhaps I should have Replying pages open for each thread on different tabs...

1. I've spent too much time on the computer today.

Oh My God...my dad is driving me freaking insane today! It's been going on since 8 O'Clock this morning! He needs to go home already!

I left him out at the barn, explaining that I needed to go pee...he told me to go pee in the in the weeds...ha...I needed a Nervous break!

I busted my butt getting home in time to interview a potential new babysitter but she didn't show up <_<

For fathers day, Gwensdad is getting a sheet of 2004 Olympic stamps, an Eddie Baeur shirt and a journal I had these people (http://www.exlibrisanonymous.com/) make from his old 2001 Frank Lloyd Wright desk calendar.

My sister logged on to ebay, opened one of my auctions and q'd me about my merchandise. She is naughty!

[Lilac]

Time to get back to work.

I have to go to a wedding in a coupel hours...actually, a wedding reception. I'm skipping the church thing and wish I could skip the reception thing, too.

At least I'll be getting away from working around this place. Where does my father get all his energy!!!!
