Three random facts:

[sarahkate]

~ I hope Curlita's good news remains good. :)

~ I spent most of my day, so far, getting rid of spyware on my work computer. :angry:

~ I still haven't called the financial aid office. Must do that. I have been saying that for a long time.

[sarahkate]

~ Ok, I did it. I called the financial aid office. I got their voice mail though. Hopefully they will call me back today.

~ I keep forgetting this weekend is the 4th of July. I have to go to a family gathering/party at my uncle's house this weekend. Almost all of my relative's on my dad's side of the family will be there. I barely ever see them so I feel awkward around them.

~ I must send out some Naked Mail soon. :ph34r:

[Skilyne]

I am sort of missing work. This is mainly because I am fairly nebby and I want to know what is going on there today, and what they are saying about me. (I'm not paranoid, I just know "my boys")

I am glad that Gwen is feeling better!

I am sorry that Theresa had a problem with some nasty guys. I'll join Curlita (the other Erica!) and we will go kick their collective ass.

[Lilac]

I'm working from home again today, mainly because my son woke up with a fever of 102.6 and I wanted to keep an eye on him. My company is pretty good with stuff like this, except, of course, if I was expected to be on site.

I drove down to the local grocery store to buy him pedialite, popsicles and jello. I forgot my purse in the grocery cart and was embarrassed to go back to the store to pick it up because I had a pair of underpants inside. :eek: I had to go, though, because I had credit cards, drivers liscense, etc...that needed to be recovered. When I got there, the smarmy, greasy, sleazy-looking store manager handed the purse over to me with a disgustingly self satisfied rude smirk on his face.

I'm NEVER going back there. Never, ever, ever , ever! :'(

[siafu]

aw poor lilac. that happened to me once. only, my mom had given my dad a new purse to give me when he saw me in florida. and we were eating dinner in a friday's or something like that. so, i figured i'd transfer contents of purses while I waited for my food. only i forgot i had a neon yellow thong in there. yikes. i forgot that i had brought it with me because i was going to spend the night at my best friend's house. (now i'm all married and housewifely and always wear only respectable underwear.) no choice but to keep talking to my poor pops. :blink:

i'm still waiting for the small bus. <_<

i'm too tired and bleary to do much else while i wait. i'm taking my mini outline with me, though. (it's only five inches thick) :unsure:

[Skilyne]

I forgot my purse in the grocery cart and was embarrassed to go back to the store to pick it up because I had a pair of underpants inside. OH NO LILAC!!! :blush: But don't worry...I've been there too! I once took out my wallet and a pair of underwear dropped onto the counter.

I should really go do some art, but I am not sure I am feeling the inspiration.

I should also run to the store, but I don't feel like it.

[Curlita]

Yes, yes, Skilyne! We will form the Erica Posse, looming and glaring wherever people need a couple of Ericas to loom and glare!

I think Theresa should have casually taken the neon thong out of her purse and than pulled it over her head like a headband, talking to pops all the while. :)

A random fact: I use my teeth to carry things around when my hands are full (or only semi-full). I caught myself doing it today and wondered if I was a small woodland creature in another life.

[Cuilanië]

muahahahah! My purse is too small to fit underwear in it, so this can't happen to me. <points finger, snickering> ;) :P

Seriously though, much sympathy, Lilac. I hate being ogled, smirked or commented at.

I'm checking how much time I have left on my internet account. :eek: Six hours until Sunday night???!! I'll never survive. :'(

[Cuilanië]

Actually, make that less than six hours, because it doesn't count today's connection time. sigh. :(

I do all kinds of things when my hands are full, including using my feet to open doors, using my teeth, balancing stuff on my forearms... I got really good at it when I was a student. ^_^

Well, guess I'll just log off and save some internet time, shall I...? :unsure: <slumps off>

I do that too! I also stick things in my hair (pencils, paintbrushes, needles) and sometimes forget about them.

I never knew so many people carried undies around in their purses.

Is it just me or are Larrissa's posts getting more cryptic? Maybe she doesn't want to have to edit them in the future.

[Astabeth]

I am ALONE in the house!

I don't think that has happened in over a year. Well, almost a year as Lorelei was born last 4th of July.

I am both dreading and looking forward to the party Sunday.

[Larrissa]

i am feeling so weird lately and the denial is peeling back

talking about it here seems inappropriate, and all the old posts seem a little off too

i dont know

*shrugs*

[medeous]

k, either eve has a purse the size of a dime or she wears giant woolen granny panties.

i have a present for robyn.

i'm eating cherries.

[Larrissa]

i drove to subway

we all lived thru it

my sandwich is delicious

Approximate Dimensions of my Purse (measured on the outside, so inside volume is slightly smaller): H: 4,5"; W: 6"; D: 2".

Inside there is space for: a 35mm film box that holds my cash; a folding sleeve for my bank and health cards, plus transaction slips; a tube of lip balm; a pocket mirror; my driver's license, my French resident's card, and some flat miscellany. Occasionally a pen fits in there also, or my keyring. There's also a slim little front pocket holding my bus & Métro pass, assorted business cards, and other small flat miscellany.

That's it. No room for anything else, and it's just about due for a decluttering. (That involves removing the miscellany... ;) )

(woolen panties? ICK. :rolleyes: puh-leeze! :lol: )

[Cuilanië]

That purse is my first and only one. It's about as big as I can stand to have. And the inside lining's falling to pieces.

Don't know what I'll do for a replacement. Considering duct-taping the inside together...

I found out a few days ago that there exist five-euro coins. I didn't know that, I thought the highest coin denomination was two euros. Certainly that's all one sees in circulation...

[kamoke]

So I went to work and the power was out. We sat around and ate, while getting paid.

All my friends are going out tonight but I have to work tomorrow at 8, so i was 'smart' and didn't go..

It's still beautiful outside

[tanagee]

My hubby has decided that it is SO important that he spends the 4th with Megan that he is guilting me into going to Sonoma (for a race) with him....

which means that I can't meet up with the LA contingent of Nervousness AND reddirtrose who is in town...

And since my hubby thinks I am a whore who cares more about other people than I do about him and our family I didn't tell him any specifics of my plans just that I "had plans" on Saturday...

[Skilyne]

LOL Curlita! That is a great idea. 2 angry and looming Ericas is sure to be a scary sight!

I am halfway packed for NYC...which is a first for me. I typically pack everything at the last minute, but I didn't feel like it this time.

I'm super tired, but stubborn. I don't feel like going to bed.

[kamoke]

There are no bulbs in my fridge and stove. Two (out of 4) bulbs in the bathroom are gone.

Im making cod nuggets. Only because I thought they were chicken nuggets. My mind wanted a nugget of some sort. nugget

I wake in six hours and 45 minutes for an 8 hour shift that consists of watering plants and unloading a 40' truck.

[tanagee]

need to pack...

need to clean up my house so when my mommy comes to feed the dog & get my mail she won't give me a hard time...

need to get some sleep so I am not crankier than usual tomorrow.

[Lilac]

My son's temperature spiked up to 103.7 earlier and I put the poor child in the tub to bring it down.

It finally came down to 101.7

It really sucks being a single parent, having no other adult in the house to help out when I get scared for my kid.

[bluecrayon]

hugs to Lilac -- been there many times. sigh.

excited for skilyne!!! hoping for a postcard!!!!


medeous might know too much about me -- yikes. ;)

[ibiddy_boo]

Awww Lilac i'm sorry to hear your son is sick. Fevers always used to scare me too. i hope he's much better by morning.

Congrats on making your fundraising goal Sarah! And YUM...celebrating with pancakes :rock: i could eat those things til i looked like one, i'm sure.

So is the rumour true about Cuilanië giant woollen granny panties? *giggle*

[Lilac]

Thanks Blue. :hug:

[ibiddy_boo]

i went road tripping with hubby today....he had an errand-running work day.

i enjoyed it....it was a good day.

We stopped in Marietta at our favourite Chinese buffet restaurant and gorged ourselves silly.

[Lilac]

I need to get to bed...even though i wont be going into the office tomorrow.

My son is still awake, though...and I'm almost afraid to make him go to bed for fear his temp will spike again.

I have horrifying fears of him getting a dreadful disease, or God forbid, dying!!!!!

[Dalmaney]

My campers are all building cardboard and duct tape boats to race tomorrow.

I got to talk to the Boy for a couple minutes... it puts a smile on my face just to hear his voice. Every little bit of communication is ultra-precious right now.

I made brownies earlier. I love my kids with food.

[Dalmaney]

I have taken to writing good-old-fashioned letters to the Boy.

I should mail the one I'm writing on Friday.

I am tired, but the kids curfew isn't for another half hour. Maybe I'll go read or something...

[moonweaver]

I am still tired from my trip, after being home two days.

I missed my son before we backed out of his driveway.

I remind myself I am lucky to have two healthy independent sons.

[tanagee]

:yay: I am so Happy!!!! On a whim I tried just putting new batteries in my digital camera and :yay: I didn't completely kill it...only fried the batteries.

Why didn't I try that a month ago? DUH! :blink:

I was doing the Snoopy dance of joy and taking pictures of my hubby in the shower :ph34r:


If I don't check in before I leave for Sonoma tomorrow...I'll "see" ya Monday.

[zanna]

oh i hurt.

just thought i'd drop in to whine a little bit.

now i'm going to go try to rectify the situation ..

[thunderstorm_19]

1 it is Canada Day. Happy Canada Day!!!

2 my aunt arrives from England tonight. her partner (my 'uncle' he'd be my uncle by marriage if they were married, but they're not), as well as another aunt and uncle of mine arrive on the 6th.

3 grrrrrh. i am now standing up, because i just noticed the spider on the back of my chair. it's just a little teeny one, but i don't want it in my hair or anything, thankyouverymuch.

[sarahkate]

~ What's going on here? Usually when I sign onto N'ness in the morning there are at least 2 or 3 pages of 3RFs to catch up on from the previous day, but today there is only one! :huh:

~ I got a letter in the mail yesterday from my college. The letter was explaining which of my credits, from the year of college I attended in 98-99, would transfer. There were quite a few that will transfer over so now I think I will be able to get my A.A.S. degree in about a year and a half (hopefully) rather than two years. Woot!

~ I ate a brownie for breakfast. ^_^

[medeous]

cherries and water for breakfast

i did the dishes this morning

i don't know what time the repair guy is arriving --maybe i should get dressed.

[Obsidian_Cat]

Breakfast was two peanut butter cookies and a cup of tea!

Lunch will be healthier...

My office is positively arctic and my toes are cold!

[siafu]

i talked to the affirmative action coordinator yesterday. she told me i should expect to do t w o t h o u s a n d multiple choice practice questions.

she let me check out some books of extra questions.

her books are harder and i almost never get any right. in my books, i get most of them right. it makes me concerned that i paid almost two thousand dollars for useless practice books. :ph34r: :wacko: :blink: <_< :o

[Curlita]

Theresa, when is your test? Ugh! 2,000 is a buttload of questions.

My cat is po'ed at me because I won't let her sit on me and knead my blouse with her pointy little claws. She needs a manicure.

I rely on my dog to let me know when the painters get here in the AM by running around saying "bwoof! bwoof!" This morning he slept through their arrival and I got out of the shower and saw one of them right outside the window. So he got a free pregnant-lady skin show, and the dog was fired from guard duty.

[Purple]

- Its one of those strange rainy, sunny, rainy sunny days over here in Hertfordshire...England.

- My bf (jeff's) little brother (matthew) was frozen from neopets today for having a auto buyer that he clearly did not have, because he's 9 and well 9 years old and doesn't know what one is.

- Theres a copyed Cd infront of the keyboard I am using reading Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. tee hee.


- Purple
xxxx

[siafu]

july 27, 28, 29, 30. it's normally two days, but i get double time, so i get four fun filled days. i have done almost 12% of said questions, but expect to be through the first third by the end of the week.

opie anderson (our cat) also likes to hang vertically from my shirts. and now he's discovered he can sleep in the bathtub, and get in the house by jumping through the window. he knocked over all the cd's twice. what a nut.

time for me to go. :hug: for curlita

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i hope lilac's son gets over this fever thing soon!

2 i just had a poached egg and a little salad... not enough. need. more. food.

3 i am in charge of making chicken stir fry for dinner tonight

[Larrissa]

i spent last evening drunk.

eat some mashed potatoes. i swear ..they really work wonders for hangovers.

i just got my roommate assignments for college that i've been waiting for for months.

i am displeased, not exactly people i can see myself living with. :(

[tanagee]

We were supposed to be leaving at 6 am this morning but as dear Hubby has not even put the engine back in the race car...

I'm still here.

http://img38.photobucket.com/albums/v117/tanagee/naked_mail.jpg
my naked mail I took a picture of this morning with my now functioning digital camera :)

[Larrissa]

i want my digital camera to behave too! maybe tanagee you could ask yours to have a talk with mine, tell him how it is ...

i actually never ever get hangovers, i just feel like my brain is mashed potatoes. it seems gross to eat the thing my head is full of, yuck.

"oooh! i like it that! working that back, i dont know how to act, slow motion from me, slow motion from me" why must they listen to this song SO OFTEN?? bleh i have heard it so much i have this defense mechanism of partially enjoying it :ph34r:

[Larrissa]

its going to take three hours of bus time to get to my dads tomorrow

we will go hiking because thats what we do together

i loooooooooove the mountains

[Larrissa]

if you see The Strangers, tell them i said hello

i really think nail polish only looks good when its all half chipped off in lots of colors

and uhhhhhh, i hope J. is online later because i like to talk with him

[bluecrayon]

my imagination seems to have a built in optical illusion mirror...

memories and things that feel like memories but may be random text keep bouncing back at me...

my fingers are having trouble knowing where to go today...

[Curlita]

Theresa, I recommend playing the Rolling Stones and eating chocolate covered pretzels while you study. That's how I got through my thesis.

Mmmmm.... chocolate covered pretzels.

Today it my 8-year anniversary as a resident of Washington State.

[Obsidian_Cat]

The rice was good, but the sesame chicken was too sweet...

I don't have anything to study right now, but chocolate covered pretzels would help!

I can paint a canvas, but I can't paint my nails...

[siafu]

yeah, maybe i should hit trader joes

larceny is deprivation of another of his property, with intent to deprive permanently.

foreseeable results lead to liability for third party criminal action.

[sarahkate]

~ Mmm ... chocolate covered pretzels. Those are good, though when I eat them I can't help but thinking of the Kevin Smith movie "Mallrats" Those of you who have seen the movie should know exactly what I mean. Ugh. *shudder*

~ I want to bid on some of the Freaky Geeky Creatures but I don't have any money this week. Maybe I can convince my boyfriend to fork over some dough.

~ Where is Robyn? I miss her.

[gwensmom]

I stayed out last night until 1:00 a.m. I will be paying for it for days.

All week I thought I was losing my mind. Turns out it was only PMS.

I ate ice cream sandwiches for lunch. :wacko: I'll probably pay for that too!

[bluecrayon]

:lol: gwensmom!

me, too. for the first 2 at least...

except for me it is a constant pattern of staying up til 1 or 2am and getting up at 630am

it is definitely making me loopy. (as if I needed any help in this!)

[Curlita]

:lol: You could sell that as a bumper sticker/T-shirt slogan... and here you are giving it away for free!

I seem to have started a chocolate-covered pretzel craze. I'm glad I have not seen the movie Mallrats if it would ruin my enjoyment of them.

I resisted the urge to buy some at the store while getting lunch, and got Junior Mints instead. I've discovered that they are relatively low in fat, but still give me my chocolate fix.

[siafu]

gwensmom, if you're not flabbergasted, you should take it right over to http://www.tshirthell.com

they pay $200.

the thing about cooking a fabulous dinner is that i'm expected to repeat <_<

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i've put the sheets in the dryer, folded the towels and put them upstairs, cleaned the bathrooms, watered the carrots, taken out the compost, taken the recycling to the garage...

2 i still need to prep for the stir fry, cook the stir fry, finish gran's birthday project, change into non-crappy clothes, put a box of tissues in the kitchen, and empty some trash bins and take out said trash.

3 if i'm lucky i'll get around to some craftyness.

[kamoke]

Canada is amazing!

they tricked me! I was a slave at work today! :lol: evil people

must.complete.lmao ;)

[kittymao]

first time in a while I've posted here. Das' a lot of pages.

The weather her is kind of nice. It's overcast with no haze, the sky is a silvery blue and the air is cool and crisp- just right for you to go strutting about in a sweater, no need for a jacket. And the shadows are cozy and deep and dark under the trees- I rode my bike home from work and I felt so snuggly as I cruised about. It makes me miss San Francisco sooo much.

oh hey. I started a LMAO to celebrate my return! Tiki Head ATC's (http://nervousness.org/lmao/index.cgi?id=14895)

[siafu]

I've been fairly obsessed with stone temple pilots for maybe going over a year.

This is kind of surprising , as I tend to think of myself as having a short attention Span when it comes to music.

who cares about musical obsession. Dinner and questions. Later dudes.

[kittymao]

a scary notion-
I know what song LaRRiSSa is singing. I hear it every day. blarg. I cannot help but think how utterly BAD that song is too.

dork warning: When I hear that "Skee Skee" song, I automatically think of Need For Speed Underground and my pearlescent purple souped up GTI.

And a third freak out- Gwar has a terrible habit of popping in my head at the weirdest times. Like... "Meat Sandwich" in the shower. and it's the kind of music you can not HELP but sing out loud.

woe is me.

[medeous]

no, i am NOT glowing, that's sweat, fool.

don't stare at my boobs.

too bad ya can't just haul off and wallop people when they need it.

[kittymao]

yes you can. Just be sure you can run faster than them and know the good hiding spots when the Police come to arrest you for assault.

All this dorky Movie Trivia I know has to be leading up to something. I mean, There HAS to be a reason I know who Ian Holm is.

I'll send you a handmade book if you know who he is and can give me three movies he's been in. and NO using the internet.

[Larrissa]

i sat around for hours making books earlier, my journals are almost full and i have no cash to go buy more ...

its good to see kittymao back! heeeelloooo!

my camera decided to take one picture, kinda like "i still love you but i need my space right now" - i can wait.

[Dalmaney]

For you long time readers... the (Ex)Boy of the January Incident is moving back to Saskatoon. Or rather, not moving back to Calgary next fall.

Which sort of highlights the slight weirdness that I've now been dating his best friend for three and a half months.

The (Ex)Boy is still one of my good friends, but is no longer any competition whatsoever for the Boy.

[kittymao]

Hey LaRRiSSa! I got a surprise fer yoo!
[img]http://mars.walagata.com/w/kittymao/talsml.jpg
I wonder if you recognize any of that fabric...

And... It's weird you posted next. I finally took a pictire of me for the Pictures thread. I think the high black collar in July will astound you. Yes, my dorkiness conquers all.

And.... I think I gotta pee.

[bluecrayon]

KITTYMAO!!!! I am so happy to see you back here!

I feel inadequate having no scanner and being unable to even make my words shimmer on the page...

I'm eating chips and salsa for lunch. Is that okay???

[kittymao]

yes. chips and salsa is AWESOME for lunch. Better than say... a piece of cake... or three cups of coffee. Or... you know... dirt. Much better.

weird... so many people excited to see me.
You guys must have missed me. :wub:

Uhm. I think I still have to pee. Be right back.

[Larrissa]

fabric?? what? i have never seen any of that in my life! :P its good to see a picture of it used for something, thank you :D and it turned out neeeat!

i should check to see where this LMAO gets sent on to, i have it all enveloped and stamped but no address, usually i remeber who it goes to ...

i cleaned my room/the garage today. i didnt want any of the family going in there while im gone for the weekend and grumbling about me being a slob ^_^

I thought you peed about 12 posts back! :lol:

kittymao, my dorkiness would SO conquer your dorkiness. wanna take it outside??

i got mail from jackie

the gum is tasteless but i still chew

and even possibly again

horny goat weed should not be taken with loads of coffee, i cant be still!

"shit down, not out!" stepdad to the birds about pooping on the wall behind the cage

sometimes music sounds completely different, no matter how much effoprt i put into listening. weirdness. or is it just dorkiness? will we ever know? do we want to know?

hmmm.

A grumpy volunteer is making me crazy.

My husband and I are going to the pool tonight. We have been talking about doing this for months and it looks like we will finally pull it off.

I'm sitting here waiting for the phone to ring and NEWS to arrive.

[siafu]

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee news!

I hope it is super great wonderful Excellent fabulous best ever news.

I only can sit here for two more minutes.

[medeous]

yay, i have air conditioning again!

of course, now i'm broke...

but i'm going to see my parents and my dad is sure to ask me how much it cost and then offer to pay for part of it.

[Lilac]

My son is feeling better today...he's sitting on the couch right now pounding the floor with a crochet mallet and chanting that he wants to go outside and catch a frog.

I'm ignoring this behavoir in hopes that my lack of attention will make it stop.

I checked today's top posters, and it says that I've posted 60-some times...that can't be right because this is the first I've been on here all day!

[Larrissa]

news? thats reminds me i havent a clue what goes on in the world that isnt immediately around me ... i should probably check on that

i have a hard time sometimes letting thoughts overtake listening to lyrics

i have to pee

[Larrissa]

my sister can be sooooo manipulative.

there is some kid io have never met in the kitchen. dont ask me why ...

im distracted.

[Larrissa]

**double posts!!

damn that

its hot

[siafu]

congratulations, medeous!

I'll hope to send you cool art for your cool house.

Impossibility of performing a contract is only an excuse when the impossibility is objective, that is, no one could perform , not that only the defendant could not perform.

i sit and sit

i have twenty minutes left

i should pack for tomorrow

[Curlita]

My husband's indecision makes me f-ing nuts.

We won't be going to the pool tonight now because he doesn't know what he wants to do.

Sometimes I feel like I'm doing all of this myself.

[Larrissa]

i was reading curlitas post and thought for a second i was in three random FICTIONS.

i need to wash my glasses

i still cant tell which song is the song i am supposed to listen for

[zanna]

i never went to bed last night.

i think it's catching up with me.

i don't want to go to bed at 6:30 ..then i'd just be a loser!

[Larrissa]

if you dont know you, is it possible for others to know you?

why did my mom just give me 40 dollars for the trip to my dads?

will she remember tomorrow when her meds wear off?

[Lilac]

I'm going to go soon and go out and help my son try to catch a frog.

Annual 4'th of July Frog Jumping Contest this Sunday.

Small town lif is just soooo exciting! :lol:

[zanna]

i just found out tonight is our city's big 4th of july fireworks thing.

wtf? on the first!?

last year i do seem to remember it being on the 3rd .. but if it keeps going on at this rate, we'll be having fireworks for easter!

[medeous]

when my daughter was 5 she had a little stand out in the front yard where she attempted to sell worms to passers by.

"big - 5 cens
verry big - 10 cens
littel - 3 cens"

she dug them up and had them in dixie cups...i made her put them in the garden when she had no takers after two hours.

[Curlita]

I should clarify that we are not going to the pool not because my husband cannot decide about that, but because he cannot decide about something else. He could not make the decision today before going to a work meeting and wants to wait and talk about it tonight.

So instead of going to the pool and swimming and getting to paddle around so that my body will re-absorb all the excess fluid that is making my feet swell alarmingly, and getting to do some exercise that does not exacerbate my shinsplints, I will be sitting on the sofa trying to get him to make up his mind.

Inordinately pissed.

okay. I feel like I need to explain my seemingly having moved into the threads...

cuz these numbers make me seem like I have no life outside..

it is only 10 months of emailing Him and waiting for his responses every day -- that's how I stumbled into this in the first place -- it gives me a way to not go crazy while I "talk" to him over there...

I just watched only the end of Pearl Harbour and it still made me miss the Boy... everything makes me miss the Boy... only six weeks and one day until I can see the Boy.

I am very tired, but I don't get to sleep until tomorrow. And I have a bunch of work to do, so I'm not sure how much sleep I'll actually get.

I want something sweet. Possibly enough to go buy ice cream.

[Larrissa]

i have no life.

i am no longer embarrassed of this fact.

or the fact that my space is often cluttered and quite messy, if you couldnt tell by my posting pictures of it :rolleyes:

[zanna]

just got back from our city's big fireworks thing at our stadium.

i was pleasently surprised that even though i had to suffer through being social and seeing people i knew, the fireworks display they had was most likely the best i had ever seen in my life.

i got all emotional and almost started crying thinking about how things used to be when i was younger, and who was still around then for me to enjoy things with. in fact, i did shed a tear for the person i miss the most.

[Curlita]

Okay, disaster and drama averted. Decision made, pool trip back on.

I think I may post a rant in the rants & raves sections about our painters. It's gotten too long and ridiculous to go into here.

I want chocolate, although that is not exactly news.

[hammerquill]

I've never eaten a chocolate-covered pretzel.

I managed to get through my thesis anyway.

I guess master's theses have different junk-food-intake requirements.

[Lilac]

Well...I need to get to bed.

I've been staying up WAY to late lately.

I think I might sleep downstairs on the couch tonight....I don't know why...it just seems to be beckoning me.

[Sirius]

i found chocolate covered popcorn to be a strange idea....

someone wants bought me a big thing of it...from neiman marcus of all places....

i put it out at a gathering, and it was rather rapidly consumed, i never got around to trying it myself...

[Curlita]

I went to a party where chocolte-dipped potato chips were served. I tried one and thought it was awful.

This surprised me, as I'd always assumed that anything dipped in chocolate would be nummy.

We went to the pool and it was wonderful to be weightless for 45 minutes.

[medeous]

i fixed my daughter's second hand computer

it has no operating system

i must find my windows

[moonweaver]

I'm sad tonight, thinking about my sons.

I miss my friend Sheila.

I wish I could take back words I said.

[hammerquill]

We just inherited a gigantic, fairly high-end printer. The architects next door were getting rid of it because it's an HP (which is to say, because it doesn't know how to feed paper correctly, and was driving them nuts).

I gave Eve a wake-up call tomorrow morning. (Time zones can be as bad as Time travel for verb tenses.)

Eve would like you all to know her knees are grumpy today.

[Larrissa]

morning to whoever its still morning to when they read this

i didnt put my name on one of my puzzle peices

i woke up at 5:00 am to pee, and like usual end up on the computer

ooh! a bonus! i catch the "L" bus in five hours to my dads

[Larrissa]

"beep beep who got the keys to the jeep? vrrrroom!"

what? where am i? hello?

and just what has been happening to the dreams i surely have while asleep? i dont appriciate waking up and having no memory of my adventures.

[Dalmaney]

I am exhausted and will go back to bed at 830...in forty minutes. The last two kids can damn well find their own way out. All I want to do is sleep for an uninterrupted two or three more hours.

I was woken up by two phone calls last night... one of which was the Boy. I love 'im, but I'm getting too tired to remember that sometimes.

On the other hand, random other person got a much happier "hello" than she deserved at midnight, because I thought she'd be the Boy.

1. wowzers. so i guess this post makes it 742...

2. so, my aunt is here. all good so far.

3. that cat. gulliver stayed out all night because it was warm and he refused to come in. he came in around 7:30 this morning, and went straight to my bed. the one bit of the bed, just below the pillows, that is not covered by the extra blanket. the extra blanket is where he is supposed to go.

[Larrissa]

so i noticed i am fast approaching 5000 posts, damn me. :lol:

i am still going to waste my time until the bus, online ^_^

i musnt overcaffienate myself today :blink:

[Larrissa]

i just laughed myself to tears over clicking an animated kitten that pukes up green matter ...

there are so many animals in the house, two dogs and is it four or five cats? i dont know. my moms cats hate me and i hate them. little snobby stuck up bastards, you should see the way they look at me.

what is today? friday? the only time i remember theres a holiday coming up is when i hear fireworks from people who cant wait for the fourth ...

phill collins still isnt cool, even if he did play drums in one of my favorite songs, kurt's rejoinder. but what do i know??

[Obsidian_Cat]

My office is warm today!

I noticed this morning that Phoebe sounds like a herd of elephants running up the stairs, but Inigo barely makes a sound, even though he goes just as fast...

Even though he's swift and silent, he still fell off the kitchen counter today and made me laugh!

[sarahkate]

~ I have Stellastar's "My Coco" groovin' in my head.

In the summer in the spring
In public places my Co-co-co
On an island far away
Lemonade me my Co-co-co

~ Sometimes I wish I lived alone so I could paint all of the rooms in my house bright funky colors. We already have a bright canteloupe-ish color kitchen, but other than everything is white. Bleck. For a while we had a dark red living room too. I miss it.

~ Tomorrow I will probably be spending most of my day helping my mom pack up everything in her apartment to prepare for her move next weekend.

[Skilyne]

I have off work today, because of the July 4th weekend. It keeps throwing me off and making me think it is Saturday.

Tommorow evening, I leave for NYC. I will be gone for a week. Please...try to hold back the tears... :P

I hope that Lilac's son is feeling better!

[Larrissa]

our kitchen is cantaloupe colored too

hmm mm

its true

[Larrissa]

top three reasons shaving sucks:

it makes me itch
it takes too much effort
i cant offend people by wearing a tank top or shorts if i shave

:lol:

[Obsidian_Cat]

I'm going to paint my apartment funky colors in the fall... I think the kitchen will be chili pepper red!

My chai tastes like they used soy milk...

Shaving is the pits! (Bwahahah, I made a funny. Laugh clown!)

[Larrissa]

baaaad joke. i still laughed

my three internet hours for the day is almost up at 8:30 in the morning

but i am going to my dady-o's and he has two computers and no time limits

i am looking forward to this weekend, mountains, hiking, yay!

he lets me listen to my music while we are together too, excellent

i may be over my over using smilies.

:blink: :huh: :D :unsure: :lol: :rolleyes: :) :P ^_^ <_<

whoo had to make up for it

[Larrissa]

cryptaesia, you need to find a new supplier for cd-r's ... SKIPPING ... aarrrrgh! i am so good to my cd's too, they get baths and hugs and peppermint tea. maybe i just dont make them happy.

i have really decided that monday and the following week will be kick ass time for the employment/needing money situation

wishing me luck will probably do no good :D

[Obsidian_Cat]

I am known for my bad jokes. This is a fact, not fiction.

I'm jealous of Larrissa's weekend plans - I want to hike! Instead, I'll work...

I need a vacation. Again, this is fact.

http://www.obsidiancat.com/smile/jump.gif
Smilies are fun, and should be used often.

[Sirius]

http://img24.photobucket.com/albums/v73/sarahkate80/dance.gif

That little guy is great.



It's another busy week.



weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[sarahkate]

~ Marlon Brando is dead according to ABCNEWS.COM

~ I hope Skilyne has a good time in NYC, and Larrissa a good time hiking with her daddy-o.

~ I need a vacation too. Cory & I might go to Mystic, CT or Maine for a long weekend sometime this summer.

[Obsidian_Cat]

I went to Mystic last fall - we had the BEST time!

I'm thinking of heading to Memphis this fall...

I also want to go to Vancouver, but probably won't be able to afford that trip just yet.

[Curlita]

Now I want a cantaloupe colored kitchen.

And some chocolate.

And the day off. But now my post has become three random wishes instead of facts...

[medeous]

my daughter is growing up and i have mixed emotions about it: she's so damn cute and leggy and tan and hair-flipping blonde...i'm secretly proud of the way she looks and kind of live vicariously through her...but then i'm ashamed of that and i'm also scared for her...growing up is hard and i want to wrap her in a baby blanket and hide her until she's 30 or so.

she's smart and she's wise but she's also a baby...i should've just had cats.

damn parenthood.

[siafu]

here are some mystic pictures for sarahkate:

and, of course.....

http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v292/tisoto/0721_010.jpg

heidi took those. i took pictures of churches and bass players. B)

[siafu]

i'm tired today. but then the long weekend. heidi gets to stay home and play.

i forgot to call the small bus yesterday, so i'm staying home today.

medeous: :hug: nan seems like a nice, funny, smart person!

[sarahkate]

~ Oooh thanks Theresa! :D Now I really want to go. And Mystic Pizza!! How did I forget about that? I definitely have to check that place out if I go, I love that movie and I buy the frozen Mystic Pizza at the grocery store sometimes too. :)

~ It's quiet here at work today. Most of my coworkers are out on vacation.

~ I might go see fireworks in Albany on Sunday night. Jefferson Starship is playing near where they are setting the fireworks off, I don't think I will go see them though. :lol:

[zanna]

i don't think i'm angry enough to put this in rants and raves ..but that isn't going to stop me from whining here.

my friend and i who is older than me were talking about politics ..

"..you are hardly in a position to judge, having so little knowledge of life, and so little familiarity with wisdom (at least from my perspective. Zanna, I do love you and consider you to have a lot of potential (and here I admit to some bias) but you're not there yet! If you try hard, try to be objective, and try to know the difference between reason and emotion, read good books and think about them but know that symbolism is for art and not real life, if you speak to intelligent people, and limit your time with dumb asses and silly TV shows; if you do these things-- all of them-- for 15 years or so, well maybe then, and you'll have beat me by several years!"

:blink: let me just say, he knows how to make a girl feel special. but i did take quite a bit of offense to this statement.

[Cuilanië]

Actually zanna, I think that was quite a compliment. But I don't think I would've thought so ten years ago. And I agree it was a bit tactless... *hug*

I'm in a groany-creaky mood. Jeez, even the underwire is creaking. :rolleyes:

I got tigers and famous dancers and math questions in the mail!!! :D

[Cuilanië]

Glad to see you Robyn! :)

I'm happy. Information is condensing into decision-making devices in my head.

There aren't really all that many viable options...

:
i LOVE that movie!!! it's one of my favorite of all time....

i've never actually had a mystic pizza though... :(

this makes me sad.....

[kamoke]

It's way to nice out today.. :D

I think I'll get some breakfast/dinner/supper..

then I'll head out again!

[kittymao]

Blarg. My elfy guy is gone. He's on his way to his new home. I'll miss him. But I got pictures.

I think I'm gonna go swimming too. Our apartment complex has a pool. I'm a bit creeped out by having to go alone, but I feel that the pool will relieve alot of tension in my back and shoulders. Oh, and the hot tub rocks my socks.

I should eat my mango.

[Cuilanië]

Ooh, that sounds like a cool apartment building, kittymao. (Glad to see you back, too!! :) )

I just had a spiced green tea. I'd really like to know what spices they use, they don't say on the box...

I had a beer, tortilla chips and salsa as a snack earlier. Which was also my lunch, since I hadn't eaten lunch. The salsa pot said 'hot', but it should say 'mild', IMO. <_<

[sarahkate]

~ Hi Robyn! Glad to see you! :) I have had Spyware on my work computer too..it's such a pain in the ass <_<

~ I want to go swimming too. I haven't been since August of 2002, when I was in Maine.

~ When I get home tonight I really should do some yard work, there are lots of weeds that need to be pulled. I think the old woman next door hates us because our lawn is such a mess.

[Curlita]

Yay, Robyn is back! She makes me happy.

I feel like all I do lately is complain.

And it's probably going to get worse before it gets better. <_<

[zanna]

hey sarahkate!

over here over here!

that's for you since i couldn't find a smiley throwing food. http://img26.photobucket.com/albums/v78/powerpackedpunch/silly-tongue1.gif

[sarahkate]

~ zanna bum! zanna bum! I see zanna bum!

~ Note to self: this weekend your mission is to find a smilie much more offensive than zanna's purple mooning guy.

~ The forums seem a little wacky today. For example, a while ago I noticed that Curlita was the last person to post in this thread, but when I tried to view it I couldn't see her post, but now that zanna has posted I can see her's & curlita's. Weird!

[zanna]

that's the same way it's been for me since yesterday, i go to post behind someone, but it's not the person i thought it was!

it seems it is the fault of something called a cache.
dont ask me what the hell, but apparently your supposed to clear it out and change your settings or something,
james says its not his fault, its yours, well he said it was mine. hes always blaming me.

thats all i got to say

[zanna]

all talk and no action.

http://img26.photobucket.com/albums/v78/powerpackedpunch/signs-blablabla.gif

That's so cute... :lol:

I feel kinda old, today. It's my creaking joints' fault.

I should close the curtains. I have a thing about windows after dark, they creep me out... who knows who's lurking out there. :wacko:

:wacko: because I live on the fifth floor (European counting at that, meaning that in North American terms I'm on the sixth floor...) and my windows face a blind wall...

[Larrissa]

i broke the other computer before i even used it

my daddy-o's iguana is a scary little demon creature, and hes not little

i had apple pie and cherries for lunch

[Cuilanië]

Open windows after dark don't bother me, it's just the room's reflection in the dark glass and not seeing what's outside. Still, :wacko:.

Does any of you US people need a bilingual assistant/office clerk/whatever? I'm available as of Oct. 1st. I promise not to check Nness too often during the work day. ;)

:lol:

[sarahkate]

~ http://www.websmileys.com/sm/mad/1335.gif - how about that miss zanna?

~ Ok...I'm done being evil for now. I will resume this smiley fight sometime this weekend perhaps. ;)

[Curlita]

We're buying a house! We're buying a house! We finally negotiated an offer that the owner accepted! We're buying a house!

We're painting a house! We're painting a house! I finally talked to the company owner to resolve the painting dispute (http://forums.nervousness.org/index.php?showtopic=10426) and we should be able to get that done soon. We're painting a house!

We're going out to dinner! We're going out to dinner! This was the easiest of all today's event to arrange. We're going out to dinner!

:wacko:

[Larrissa]

glad to see others glad :D

i wish aim would sign me in properly

i want to talk to people!

[Cuilanië]

:yay: :yay: Curlita, that's good news! (I don't dare call you Erica anymore, now that there's a posse of you... people wouldn't know who I'm talking about! ;) :P ) :yay:

I'm hungry. I've got cold cuts in the fridge. Guess that'll be it.

Aack! How'd it get 11pm so fast?!?!! :blink: :rolleyes:

[sarahkate]

~ just had to say Congratulations to Curlita! Yay!!!!! :D

~ And plz don't die zanna.

~ Ok.. really... I'm taking my annoying-self away from the computer now. Time to go home. Adios!

[gwensmom]

I am sitting here in old shoes and clothes waiting for the daily monsoon to start.

When it does I will run outside and wash the car for free.

I think I found us a new babysitter! :yay:

[Cuilanië]

Larrissa's sticking out her tongue. Bet she'll be grounded. ;) :P

I've been wanting to drink wine in the evening lately... but I don't like to open a bottle of wine when I'm alone, it means I have to finish it within a few days.

I've got several bottles in my 'cupboard', though.

[gwensmom]

The sun came back out so I guess the car will stay dirty.

:yay: for Curlita's fabulous new home!!

I had a dream with LaRRissa in it! It started off as one of those where I go back to school and don't know where anything is or where I am supposed to be. LaRRissa said to just skip school and she took me and a friend to her house where there was a birthday party going on for one of her younger siblings.

someone please interpret that.....

[siafu]

you want to have cake and ice cream with larrissa. cake stands for money, ice cream for fame, and larrissa...fairy godmother.

i've been making atc's.

i think i just made my last one for today.

[nymphette]

i was going to sit at the computer for a while, but i just heard a HUGE crack of thunder so i better turn it off... :(

i got another gorgeous postie from gwensmom!!!! :wub: they alway s come on the 'right' days too, as a good pick me up!!! :)

so much for barbequing... chris just went out for propane (we ran out last night before i even got supper on the grill.... maybe i'll let the chops marinate another day and have lasagna tonight.... i'm still on my casserole making kick- gotta get that freezer stocked up so i don't have to feed my family canned/boxed/frozen convenience foods, being tired as i am!!! :o

[Larrissa]

if anyone else makes fun of me for being grounded, i am going to rampage :lol: damn all of you

i havent a clue about the dream ... i dont remember, though im sure it was nice to meet ya gwensmom :D

LaSSiRRa is smiling like a geeek and wasting time right now, the hike isnt till later, the daddy-o has Work to do .... <_<

[bluecrayon]

yay, Curlita!

I've never owned a house and can only speculate what that must feel like to do so...

I am forever without anchors...

(at least physical ones...)

yikes.

???????

[Skilyne]

YAY Curlita! Glad about your good news.

YAY to Gwensmom too...I hope the possible babysitter works out well for you!

I am feeling sort of dizzy, but I am not entirely sure why. I AM sure that it is annoying me.

[Larrissa]

i am sure i have been awake since 5:30 am and this espresso i drink may help a little

i am sure it was the intelligent thing to do when i took the drip pan and turned it upside down to look underneath and spilled black runoff all over the kitchen

i am sure cleaning it up made it no longer matter

[Cuilanië]

Theresa rocks. :rock:

The night is cold here, but my heart is so warm and about to burst.

How can I sleep now? Yet it's past midnight.

[bluecrayon]

this house thing is crawling inside my brain today...

can I call myself a grown up if I've never wanted to own one?

I DO own a rather wonderful camera, though! ;)

[Larrissa]

it will be nice when, maybe, if, i ever get some actual human beings to hang out with. family doesnt count.

the freaking cd burner i have been sooooooooooo looking forward to using for hours straight told me no. i dont appreciate it when a machine tells me no.

that brings to mind scenes from the animatrix ... i loved that, more so than any of the movies ...

[Larrissa]

hey hey guess what? i think theresa rocks too, and i started a little book thingie for you today on the bus ... its cool, like you :D

the bus ride was nice, long and quiet and great fun really

my dad has mail and i dont. well its doesnt count that its for his business ... nope. its not fair. im pouting now.

[Larrissa]

ooooohkay. his mail is neon green ten foot tall blowup aliens :huh: he has a customer that wanted them ... alright then

i wanna see the mountains now!

its hard to repress my urge to sing along at full volume to draculas weeding. oooh yes, i love this song

[Curlita]

Thank you all for adding your "yays" to mine!

Believe me, bluecrayon, when I say that the amount of paper and angst that goes into buying a house makes renting look good.

I think I'm going to leave work early and go home.

[Larrissa]

okay the Q&Q forum says curlita posted last here --- but alas all i see is my tongue ... and no amount of reload will fix it.

:yell: its hot in here!

i am enjoying this super fast whoooooo ooooooo connection but i wanna go see the mountains already its getting late lets go go go go

[Larrissa]

i dont know clovefirefly, but its nice to meet you! see you in every thread i have visited in the last twenty minutes heeeelloooo

uh oh. silence again.

i have sooo abandoned editing away stuff, i am only me right now and thats not me anymore and anyone who has anything to think of me will only think subjective thoughts because thats what thoughts are and stuff and i am being glared at because its time to go. but i have to finish my rambling! what the hell was i saying? oh yeah, i got over it. it doesnt matter.

^_^ ^_^ ^_^

[Larrissa]

adios amigos

seee you later, i do hope

bye bye bye, dont lie to me

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i have pms. and i'm in a really whiney bitchy mood.

2 i have to go, cuz dinner is on the table.

3 apparently actor marlon brando has died.

[Obsidian_Cat]

I'm ridiculously happy over purchasing a "Litter Locker."

The cats could care less, except that the box is a new plaything.

I burnt my tongue on the stuffed shells I fixed for dinner... http://www.obsidiancat.com/smile/tongue.gif

[indigo]

I am very sad that Brando died. He was one of my fave actors. :(

Here is a link in case you want to read about it: http://sympaticomsn.ctv.ca/servlet/Article...?hub=topstories (http://sympaticomsn.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/1088782432671_9?hub=topstories)

It is really muggy here today. :wacko:

[kamoke]

This LMAO is killing me. Why did the people before me do such good stuff..

I totally forgot I was going to call my friend to go out tonight ;)

I bought my first book online today! :D

[gwensmom]

Home ownership is a pain. Don't do it if you don't have to!

The babysitter is here and i can take a shower and go to bed. yes, this early on a Friday night.

Here is some good news: The TV is fixed and ready to be picked up and the whole thing was under warranty. :) :) :)

mine, too.

beautiful to look at when he was young, intense, goofy, enigmatic -- all the things that spark me.

but obviously troubled and insecure and carrying some messy baggage in his later years...

[Dalmaney]

I went for my run and now feel marginally more awake.

I think the Boy is going to call me tonight and have time to talk.

Not that I'm waiting by the phone... for one thing, the phone has 19 other people to cycle through in the next 90 minutes.

[zanna]

i went out to do a few local geocaches ..

when i started looking for this one it wasn't raining ..

but by the time i found it, it was in a downpour and the mile trek i had to make in order to get back to my car left me absolutely covered in georgia red clay. i think i better go take a shower now, or i may permanently stay this reddish tint. :blink:

oi!! i second that!!! it's disgusting!!!

hurrah!!!! for curlita and their house!!! :wub: you'll be settled in before baby comes then???

and hurrah !!!! again !!! this time for gwensmom and her great, fantastic, will work any shift needed, bonds with gwen right away, stays for as long as gwen/gwensmom/gwensdad needs her new babysitter!!! (that was all me hoping this one is better than the last (few?).... )

uh... that's it...

there was tornados a few miles from here.. when chris went to get the propane, they saw one but it was just forming, and didn't touch down... what a great storm!!! but we missed the biggest part, it kind of caught the edge here...

[Sirius]

i still haven't done this yet:

4 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup boiling water
1/4 cup orange juice (not concentrate) or 2 tablespoons lemon juice
3-3/4 cups cold water
1. In the bottom of a pitcher, dissolve the sugar and salt in the hot water.
2. Add the juice and the remaining water; chill.
Yield: 1 quart


...but i keep thinking about it...

[Sirius]

i took one of those online iq tests, my result made me laugh....


"You're really just gifted, but people think you're a genius."


It cracked me up because I always feel like people think I am a lot smarter than I really am....

such as the friend who recently asked me to help her study for an exam in a field I have no experience in because she believed I could figure it out and then make it make sense to her...

granted, in that case, she was right, the process made my head hurt, but I was able to translate the mumbo-jumbo until reality...and now I know more about the subject than I ever wanted to know, and I remember some useless calculus I had forgotten....

Dear god, I hope so! We close on August 13, so I'll be at 7.5 months. Yikes.

We just went out to eat and I'm verrrrrrrry full.

Sending good wishes to Sarah for a long and happy relationship with the new babysitter!

[Sirius]

kind of on the same note...i think technology is slowly making me stupid....


when i switched back to an analog watch a few years ago I had to relearn telling time. My dad gave me a digital watch in the second grade, I used it for 20 years and forgot how to tell time...

i am calculator dependent....

and now I am becomin spell-check dependent....

[Larrissa]

i hiked my ass off - 10 miles?

we backcountry-ed it to the car because we got lost and the park gets locked up at 9pm.

it was quite an adventure, learned i judge distance very very badly :lol:

[Lilac]

My son is oddly obsessive about keeping the toilet bowl clean. Seriously, this kid scrubs it like 2 or 3 times a DAY!

He also likes watching the show "Monk."


Hmmm...is he destined to a life of obsessive-compulsive behavoir...

[Larrissa]

nooo obsessive complusive behavior SUCKS :'(

course, im not compulsive

just a bit obsessive

but you knew that

[Larrissa]

its so disappointing when your on a mad chain game run with others and suddenyl your name just stays as the last post in each thread.

BAH!

oh right, thats sara's word, i dont have permission to use it

[hammerquill]

I'm only posting so that Larrissa's name won't stay so boringly as the last poster on every thread. ;)

I'm really having difficulty getting myself inspired to work on three different pieces I want to finish for the ACC show in August.

I get more annoyed with McAfee by the day.

[Larrissa]

hammerquills gracious efforts erased

my dad told me "dont wear out the keyboard" before he went to bed

i had dinner and now its hot and i am considering getting drunk all alone and writing letters to nervousness folk, because i love all of you really.

:rolleyes: damn me

[Larrissa]

its good he erased the name from that. he is obviously smart enough to know i would be mischevious with this information.

i am going to get up and aquire a glass of spirits.

i do so dearly hope not everyone goes to bed ... am i the only one who remembers being up all night and wasting time in the forums in an extreme manner?

all time is wasted, as it cant be a waste.

[Larrissa]

i scraped my leg on a rusty barb wire fence today

if i am not here tomorrow its because i died of tetnus

i should ask about the whole disappearance without a trace thing ...

[Lilac]

I'm going to have to be going to bed soon...as much as I'd love to stay here all night and play. The farrier is supposed to be here tomorrow morning at 8:30 to do the horse's hooves.

I'm going to miss Larrissa. Maybe I'll have a dream about her like...who was it...(Gwensmom?) who dreamt that she met the wonderful Larrissa.

I hope Larrissa doesnt drink too much and has a great evening!

[Lilac]

Goodnight Larrissa

Goodnight Hammerquill

Goodnight to anyone else who might stumble in here at this ungodly hour!!!

[Larrissa]

i cant drink too much, unless its TOO MUCH.

hot hot i should turn up the air conditioner

and put on some music

[Larrissa]

i would almost like to scroll back a few pages and see how many hours i have spent here

i cant face it

my head spins and i am ready to write letters, that may never get sent :D

:lol:

There is something about seeing that posted on an electronic forum like this that just cracks me up.

Like the bag of ISO 9001 certified basmati rice from India.

And like the graffiti-bombed truck that had, as its finishing touch (in hieroglyphic tag script): for mural information www.(somethingorother).com I wish I'd been able to take down the website address, but I was too busy laughing and trying to drive.

[Larrissa]

ungodly? but i thought He was omnipresent. I have been lied to.

[kamoke]

4:42 am

I have gathered mail and finished product[s] for mailbox drop off. thank god

invisible

[bluecrayon]

I showed up and emptied the room! :D

It's only 1245am here --

I have a "date" over the distance at 1am so I spin on til then...

[Larrissa]

"Drunk Larrissa" can be fun

dont call me "miss thang" either

i know you read this

:P

[moonweaver]

How drunk can you be, Larrissa, when you didn't have any typos or misspellings?

I always perk up when I see your name, and one of your many ever-changing avatars.

Larrissa is fun, and cute.

I'm tired, but here I am.

[zanna]

i haven't seen him in over a month and a half and have hardly talked with him at all.

today will break that.

but i wonder if it will break me ..?

[Larrissa]

i am awake

or am i?

will we ever know?

[Dalmaney]

Today I am taking my 18 students to the Bannock Point Petroforms (http://www.gov.mb.ca/conservation/parks/popular_parks/petroforms/) for some walking and culture.

We will stop at the Natural History Museum on the way home.

None of my other field trips have any educational value. Next week we're going to the mall and a movie.

[Larrissa]

i slept in one place too long apparently last night and half my hair looks like the wing of a bird extending from my head

i refuse to shower it away

i am going to go get more water to drink, damn alcohol recovery has me all thirsty.

[Larrissa]

if i were a suprfantastic programmer i would make it an option for your posts to be invisible to guests.

i have forgotten the wonder of this underworld song and this whole cd, why the hell havent i been listening to this more often?

cycles, phases, they cant be avoided

*i am the master of typos

maybe you are drinking TOO MUCH water sirius??? it can happen and when you do the symptoms are like dehydration...

http://www.hhp.ufl.edu/keepingfit/ARTICLE/...oomuchwater.htm (http://www.hhp.ufl.edu/keepingfit/ARTICLE/toomuchwater.htm)

i remembered that chris' old boss had decided that he would become healthy by drinking water, and he drank too much and got sick.... possiblility???

[Larrissa]

today the daddy-o and i are going to colorado springs, to see pikes peak and garden of the gods

i just love that place

wheeee! we leave in a few minutes

[Dalmaney]

I should find some lunch sometime in the next half-hour.

I should make sure Pete is in fact out of bed in the next half-hour... crazy coworkers that can sleep through chaos.

I get to go driving this afternoon, which is actually kind of exciting in that I haven't left Pinawa in a couple weeks.

[Lilac]

Goodmorning Larrissa! Feeling the side effects of that alcohol, huh?

Incredibly, I woke up feeling fine.

Horse's hooves are all nice now! My sister will be here around two and we're going riding!!!!

[Larrissa]

goood morning tamara, its nice to see you again :D

i should have another fact

the fact is, javascript seems unnecessarily complicated and thats why i never bothered to learn it

[Lilac]

And Goodmorning to Bluecrayon!!!

I hope you're having a good Saturday!

How's the weather over there in SF?

[bluecrayon]

Good morning Larrissa, Lilac, Helquin, Hammerquill, and Moonweaver -- we had fun last night, indeed!

and I'm only hung over on good feelings!

but I talked to him til almost 3am and feeling dim witted today!

I will be seeing Hammerquill later tonight -- hmm. what should I wear? :lol:

[Larrissa]

im leaving now

adios

see ya later

love

bye

phooey

[Lilac]

I'm leaving, too. Sissy will be here soon...and off we'll go...riding into the sunset...well, into the afternoon sun, actually.

Bye sweet Larrissa!

Bye wonderful Blue!

[bluecrayon]

oh, heck -- Larrissa always takes part of the party with her when she leaves

which means I have to tap dance all the more furiously

but I have serious deadline issues today and should probably slide away, too.

(but maybe just a few minutes longer -- :D )

[kamoke]

so I sleep in until 3.. ;)

I left my camera at my friends house the other night..

blah blah blah, blah blaah, blah ble bloh blah.

[Lilac]

My sister is here and I'm showing her "around" Nervousness!

Everyone say Hello to Trey!

Hoping she might want to become a member, too!

[Cuilanië]

Hello, Trey! :wave: ^_^

- I should decide what to eat tonight...

- It's been a while since I used any kind of fact-list marker.

- Before he left for the weekend, I had my roommate trim the hair at the nape of my neck. This way I can avoid a haircut for another few months.

[Obsidian_Cat]

I'm trying to catch up on my cleaning...

I stopped to pay bills and balance my checkbook...

Turning the computer on leads to roaming around online!

[Curlita]

This morning Jonny and I sat down over coffee and made a list of all the things we need to do to get the house ready to go on the market.

I thought we'd been moving along pretty well, but the list was a lot longer than I anticipated.

Rye is the best kind of bread.

[zanna]

i just got back from seeing him.

why can't i just be rational instead of being filled with all this emotion ..?

i think today did break me. i realized everything that was wrong with us and how i'd just been turning a blind eye.

i hate realizing stuff, well this kind of stuff at least ..

3. i caved and bought a coffee while i was out instead.

[ibiddy_boo]

:wub: thunderstorm RAOK'd me and i got naked mail....what wonderful surprises!!!

i want to sit here and play catch up on all i've missed these past couple-three days, but have a raging headache.

i hear the couch and a hot cup of herbal tea calling my name.

[kamoke]

I forgot it was saturday, and the post office is closed

I'm starting to get worried about my lack of interest towards hanging out with my friends.. ;)

I want to be a photographer.. maybe ;)


;)

[siafu]

aw cindy. i hope you feel better.

i am overwhelmed a bit.

well see, its a secret.

no really, on the quizzes and questions forum page, with the list of this shiesta we love so much, if you click the number of replies, which is next to the number of views, a handy little spy list comes up.

use it to impress your friends.

:D

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i'm really happy that the RAOKs i sent are starting to arrive (2 so far... make that 3)

2 heated environmental discussion at dinner with my father deliberately baiting me and me having had too much wine (not much, just enough to notice) to adequately argue my points

3 my mood is crap - i really hate PMS

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i bought a new shirt today. halter style with thin stripes, earthy tones...

2 i really would like, even though i've eaten too much junk today already, to sit down with a tub (y'know, those little 500mL ones) of haagen daas chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream and eat the whole thing

3 my mother really hates it when i eat ice cream straight from the tub (i only do this when i've bought myself a little tub, i do not do it with the large tubs she buys for everyone to share)

[bluecrayon]

I hate pms (but who loves it?)

I hate being baited politically...

I hate that I won't be here tonight to chain myself into oblivion -- :D

[ibiddy_boo]

Thanks siafu :) :hug:

PMS does suck....try lots of B complex...well, not all at once, but daily....once it kicks in (couple weeks), it does make a difference.....as long as you take it religiously. i was the queen of pms once upon a time, but i was very glad to relinquish my throne... :D

My headache, although not raging quite as bad, is still kicking like a mule.

[Lilac]

My sister and I had a blast out on the horses today. We havent been able to ride without kids tagging along for...geez...probably years! We were goofy and silly and crude...and laughed so much my face is still hurting! It was just wonderful!

And now it's midnight...but no one is here playing! What's going on? Does everyone have dates, or something? :lol:

Okay...so I guess I'll get off soon and go to bed. It's no fun playing here by myself. :(

[moonweaver]

I'm going to go to bed earlier than usual tonight, because I am very tired, and my back hurts.

I'll go in the hot tub first.

All my late late nights this week are catching up with me.

[Lilac]

Goodnight Moonweaver!

I'm hoping someone will pop up here and play awhile.

Otherwise, I'm off to bed myself...and I don't have a hot tub to relax in. :'(

[moonweaver]

I'm still here, Lilac, and it's more than an hour since I said I was going to bed.

But I do need to go to bed soon.

I noticed Gingersmack and Kamoke playing quizzes; maybe they'll stay up with you.

[namelessgirl]

HEY YOU! did my letter arrive yet?

i have so much to do tomorrow. stupid 4th of july. drunk sunburned people everywhere.

BAH BAH BAH i say, and it's mine ALL MINE :P

[Gingersmack]

Not sure who you are asking...
Fourth of July, time to watch for errant bottle rockets.
Need to change the music cd, it's a downer.

[moonweaver]

Sara! Do you mean me by HEY YOU?

If so, no, not yet.

I'm glad you're on here. :wub:

Hope your mood improves, though you're entitled to a bad mood.

[namelessgirl]

Pat, all of my oh-so-rude "hey you"s are normally directed at the cryptic typo-loving larrissa. but i'll write you a letter too ;) :D

my bad mood will improve if i can get both of the cats healthy and flea-free at the SAME time. that's all i want, ONE day when they are both not itching like crazy!!!

ok time for bed. i have a long day of cleaning ahead of me. bah to the millionth power.

[Gingersmack]

Hi Sara!

Much better tunage going on now.

Hope your kitties are feeling groovy soon.

[Larrissa]

typo-loving? :angry: i cant believe you wont state my disability so openly!

no letter yet, though it could have arrived today or yesterday and i wouldnt know until tomorrow

its nice to see you in here miss sara

[namelessgirl]

hi heather! hi larrissa!

don't be ashamed of the typo-love, it's nothing you'll get burned at the stake for.

ok i'm going to bed for REAL now. nite nite.

(and i feel like an ass because i almost corrected you and said that's MRS sara, but then i remembered i was wrong. fuck it.)

[Larrissa]

ahh shit, sorry about that, i call everyone miss.

today i ate a cold pork chop with no silverware on the summit of a mountain

lichen is aaaaaawesome

[Larrissa]

no one is around, phooey!

hmm, i dont know sometimes.

i shall use my dads supercool cd player to write down the track listsings for some cds now.

and how come it gets hotter at night??
