Three random facts:

There are two sets of plane tickets on my desk.

Can you tell that this makes me happy? :D

[Cuilanië]

I like the shadow of my mussed-up hair on the wall in front of me. It looks wild.

I'm still making snowflakes.

I should go to bed.

Rant: Oreo's icky!!! How could that be? Has hell frozen over?
Rave:Cuilanië :wub: we could get along very well :) Mmm oreos :drool:
I'm talking to him...somewhat hard to type.

[Lilac]

Oh! I live close to Oreogrrl! Hello! :wave: I live up north, in Butler...I work in Pittsburgh, though!

It is way too hot and sticky here right now!

Someone come take my kid for a couple hours!

[Skilyne]

Hi to Oreogrl and Lilac...I live close to both of you!!!

It is hot and sticky here too...but at least I have a slight breeze coming in my window.

I'm not overly excited over the prospect of another day at work tommorow...although I am hoping I am not as emotional come morning.

[oreogrl1]

Oh my... I was just thinking about how humid it is.
I am pleased to learn that I have 2 n-ness buddies close by!! Wahoo! ello there :wave:
Where does lilac work I wonder... that is so terrible.

Hehe recent discovery, my awesome plan has free nights and weekend and 1400 peak time min. My friends in nh will be getting a call tonight!

[oreogrl1]

oil paints rock...except for the cleaning up part.
I need guitar lessons... Lilac intrested? hehe
My guitar is so pretty just waiting to be played...

[Skilyne]

I've wanted to learn how to play the guitar for so long now!!! But I can't find anyone who wants to teach me how...

I am wondering if that letter I mailed out last week ever got to it's destination...

To answer Erica I from yesterday, I was itchy because I found that I had been bitten by bugs...probably at work.

[kamoke]

another friend gone off to halifax for school..

i will be a serial killer!

I'll eat food now

[oreogrl1]

my headache has returned but with it has come a good mood.
I feel like partying!
Heh I've got work in the morning.

[Lilac]

Lilac works at an eningeering firm downtown. Traffic sucks!

I'm wondering where Oreogrl works....

I don't know where Skilyne works, but I know what type of work she does! (and I admire her for it!!!)

[oreogrl1]

i work for michael bro. nursery...its out in deer lakes/ fox chapel
It's a family business.
I also work at the hampton inn on route 8 (is a resturant).

[gwensmom]

I love Californians because they buy all the stuff I sell on the internet.

I'm going to knit with a bunch of senior citizens tomorrow.

I don't know what Skilyne does in her shop. Spill it Erica! What do you make with that big machine?

I :wub: Blackdog.

Glad Curlita found her cat. :yay:

Has Robyn posted today? Maybe they were discharged. :crossed:

My sister wanted to learn how to quilt and she made two crib quilts. She didn't know what to do with them so she sent them to me. I am entering them in the fair without telling her and I hope she gets a ribbon! :evil:

[Gingersmack]

Listening to Simon Stinger.
Having a glass of red wine.
Went to the PO twice today.

[Lilac]

I :wub: Blackdog. <-----okay, this was supposed to be a quote from Gwensmom, but apparently I havent figured out how to use the "quote" thingy yet.

Awwww, thanks Sarah! I :wub: him, too!

I've eaten at the Hampton Inn, Oreo...years ago, but still!

290269


That is actually the smallest machine I work on...we've got some that are about 10 times that size!!! But we make plastic components...such as pieces that fit into electrical breakers or cars. We also work on parts for Naval ships. Most of the pieces are small...smaller than the size of my palm, and some are smaller than the tip of my finger even. I work on the plastics end of things, but our shop also does machining...working with steel and such.

There were many more than 3 facts in there! :D

[oreogrl1]

yep, My aunt own's the inn... hehe I have an in
Hope Lilac enjoyed it... they have the best crablegs yum!
My Great aunt owns the nursery... once again I have an in
Why can I not get any respect at either place?

[Lilac]

I went to the Hampton Inn on a date many years ago. The food and Irish singer were fantastic...the date was NOT! :lol:

It was the first restaurant I'd ever been to that had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches on the menu.

Of course, I had the crab legs and not the PBJ!

[oreogrl1]

Thankfully I only sub in there when they are short...
I've had a few very strange, grumpy, dirty people in there.
I think the pb&j is pretty cool for kids. hehe

I don't remember there being an irish singer however it is very possible.

[gwensmom]

Gwensdad and I stayed in Hampton Inns in Chicago and Nashville. We love that free continental breakfast!

Gwensdad interviewed for a permanent job today at the company where he is currently a contractor.

I want to go to Asheville, NC and stay at the Grove Park Inn and visit the Biltmore House again and go to Pisgah National Forest.

[Lilac]

Little Sister Tanagee is L U R K I N G ! :lol: :P

[Lilac]

GO GWENSDAD!!!!!!!


I hope everything works out!!!

Good luck to Gwensdad!!

[oreogrl1]

Time for bed
I learned my lesson yesterday
I also have to wash dishes and clothes :wub: you all!!

[tanagee]

I'm Not lurking...making sure I crossed my t's and dotted my i's :)

My mom & I used to do that when I was younger, it was a b-day-last blast kind of thing. We would go to Magic Mountain (Six Flags) and it always turned out that it was totally un-crowded because the school districts in our area started a day earlier than L.A. Unified back then.

When I do my laundry, it all goes in together on a cold cycle. I don't separate my colors...and I sometimes put too many clothes in. But it doesn't matter. All my stuff is clean and smells good...and nothing has ever bleed on anything else.

I sometimes do that, I use those dye magnet things that supposedly trap the excess dye. Other wise I sort into 4 categories; G's dirty greasy clothes, sox and undies, darks and everything else.

Go for the Meg Ryan look! My mom; resident beauty academy grad says that a short hair cut elongates the face...and therefore results in a thinner look. Have I convinced you?

I'm afraid to cut my hair...I think it's also partially due to vanity... people are so jealous hehe

Oh yea I said I was going to bed didn't I? I guess I had better get going.

[Larrissa]

work pissed me off ...
3 hours of constant customers and only me working lead to the 8oclock count not getting done until 10:00

i tried to install the brand new CD AND DVD burner but am ignorant about the power cords and if its okay to connect one cable to two devices ...
and mister Z could help but i think hes asleep

no more from me

[moonweaver]

This is the only topic in Q & Q that I have posted to in weeks.

Been busy with other things: some art, some not.

I had fun tonight; my niece and I played in the studio making collages.

[Helquin]

I got up way early today and had donuts with my coffee

Yikes: busy day ahead

I can't believe it's still dark out (6:26 AM)... :mellow:

[Obsidian_Cat]

Apparently it's a cold.

It's settled in my left eye.

Is there more tea? I need more tea...

[Lilac]

I'm leaving for Kennywood in about 15 minutes....waiting for my slow child to finish getting ready. Honestly! You'd think he was a girl the way he preens!!! :lol:

It's going to be a scorcher of a day....yuck!!! What terrible weather for being at an amusement park!

and...well...that's all I have to say.

[siafu]

i'm still mad at a bus driver who had to drive five blocks to go one block. i felt like a frickin hostage in a stupid ass no plot movie. i guess i should get over it.

i am afraid i will get her again and we will have to go around and around.

ok, the reason me doing laundry is funny is that for the longest, we had these free washer and dryer machines but they were broken, so the washer leaked, and the dryer was a biiig cat perch. but now, i can be all flippant like, oh yeah, i did a load of colors, let's say.

[siafu]

hey boss. super chai latte on the double.

can i get you a muffin with that?

maybe you should put your head down for a minute. i'll field all your calls.

[gwensmom]

Yesterday was my one-year nervous anniversary and I didn't even notice! I can't believe there was a time when I didn't know all you wonderful people. :wub:

I am watching eBay users are bid on three sweaters I have had since college. That was a loooooooooong time ago!

I invoke my powers to banish Obsidian_Cat's cold! /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/. Can you feel those vibes?

[littlest-bee]

it's been a while since I've TRFed...so:

~ my flatmates and I are going to a pub quiz this evening but none of us know anything about sport so we'll probably be rubbish

~ I ate oatcakes and tuna pate for lunch

~ I'm obsessed with eBay - it's a shame I'm always a buyer rather than a seller!

[frizball]

Last night was my final romp in houston before I go back to school.

It was THE BEST. I saw the start- and they were amazing live. Then we went and I got another piercing, just for the hell of it. A going away present. For myself. an Industrial... YAY! :D Then we somehow started taking random sings we found on the side of the road. got about 10 of them. Put those and a road cone in our friend's front yard. Played some pool hit up the ihizzle.

and then i said goodbye. Without crying. Wow. got 2 hours of sleep. and then... piddled all morning. going to school today. wish me luck.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

I have a mark ryden monkey tattoo.

I can't believe I forgot to 3rf that!!

Actually I don't think I forgot.... so I'm telling you all again because it TOTALLY ROCKS.

[Lilac]

Alrighty - it's time to get movin'!

I'm off to Kennywood.

Please send cool breeze vibes my way!

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

Last night I went to Niagara Falls Fallsview Casino for "dinner". It was my dad's idea.... it is ALWAYS my dad's idea.

I was there for like FIVE HOURS!!!!! And there is no-where decent to sneak out and smoke one as the casino is ON THE PARK that used to be good for that sort of thing.

I won $120, which is a first, at a $5 table playing WAR of all things.

Fact #3 - Mark Ryden rocks.

[Curlita]

Reading this series of posts has made me hungry for donuts and oreos.

I seriously considered calling in sick to work today, but any time I take off now means less paid maternity leave.

The baby has been poking at my bladder and cervix. Ouch.

[siafu]

i am at the small business administration

it is on the tenth floor

i hope this building is sound

xoxoxo

[Curlita]

Theresa's new avatar is throwing me off. Change, change, dreaded change!

I got a letter from Erica II yesterday - my first piece of personal mail at the new address!

I think it is time for coffee and a snicky-snack.

[kittymao]

Well, other than the stupid khaki pants and white button up dress shirts for both jobs- most of my clothes are BLACK save a few red tees and the can't-live-without jeans.

I used to wash everything in WARM water. That's why my BF flips. He has black and blue clothes ( save his Che shirt which is red) and doesn't want my red bleeding anywhere. feh.

I have laundry to do, portfolios to assemble, a bathroom to clean and projects to work on. HOORAY!

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

I just looked at gama-go and they have neat stuff I want to buy @wholesale.

I am going to be an intrepid traveller.

No I'm not.

[Larrissa]

good morning folks

i have lots to do today

but im playing online first damn it

[Curlita]

My right eye hurts.

It makes me anxious that I have to constantly audit my vacation hours to make sure the treasurer here has got them right - especially when I need every single one of them for maternity leave.

I want to go home and unpack things. I am not being very productive here.

[Skilyne]

I slept all of maybe 3 hours last night...and ended up having to work overtime today. Needless to say, I am QUITE sleepy.

The reason for the lack of sleep last night was that there was a bat in my bedroom...heaven only knows how it got there!!! And I'm not even entirely sure he is gone.

Tonight, he is coming over to rid my bedroom of this creature...because I sure as heck don't want to do it, and he seemed unnaturally excited at the thought of a bat...so it's only fair to let him have his fun...

[Curlita]

A bat?!?! Yiikes! So did you lose sleep because it was making noise or because you were creeped out?

I saw a bat once in the bathroom at a beach-side campground. It was kinda cute, but kinda freaky.

I think that because I grew up on the east coast, in my mind bats=rabies. The west coast does not seem as anti-bat.

[Skilyne]

Oh...I lost sleep because I was so creeped out. I ended up actually sleeping out in the hallway curled up in the corner, because I couldn't bear to know it was swooping around my head.

Yes-having always lived here on the east coast bats=rabies and I'm afraid it will bite me as I sleep.

I hope he catches him...or that the bat has left, because I can't sleep another night in the hall...I refuse.

[Skilyne]

I glad that Erica I got my letter...I hope she liked it.

I am curious as to why he is so excited at the prospect of a bat...he about burst with excitement over the whole deal...and then after I told him the whole story about trying to catch it last night, he was HOWLING!

He said that he would have paid money to see me going after a bat and then sleeping in the hall...and that we could have made millions on that tape...because I would have looked like such an idiot. Well...I can't argue. I probably did!!!

[kittymao]

aw. I wanna see a real bat. I only hear and see them in glimpses at night in this sleepy country town. I'm west coast so it's more awe than anything else.

Did I ever tell you all about the time I was riding to work and a skunk crossed my path? I slowed down so I wouldn't spook him- he looked just like a kittycat. Besides, I didn't want to go to work smelling like polecat. yech.

I'm making portfolios. Does anyone know anyone who needs an illistrator/character designer/sculptor/desperate starving artist? Let me know!

[indigo]

I was at a friend's house one night and there was a bat swooping down over and over again. My friend and his parents kept laughing at me because I was ducking - they said he is not after me, only the bugs. It was so gross.

I have to sign back in to my phone now and I would rather stab myself in the eye with a pen.

School starts on Monday and I haven't bought my kids any school supplies yet.

[Larrissa]

i lost track of time

the cd burner is installed

i learned what molex means

my mom is all kinds of pissed today

i wish she would calm down

[siafu]

what does molex mean?

hm?

i am showing someone my nervous art. i hope he thinks it is interesting or amusing.

[Curlita]

I think that molex is a fancy watch with a moleskin band.

Or maybe it is a sort of Mexican anti-sauce that keeps your chicken clean and dry.

You'd think I'd be doing some work, seeing as how I only have a month to prepare for my maternity leave and all.

[indigo]

Today I was reading old posts on here and I saw someone mention the name MC Escher - a name of which I had never heard before. Then just a little while ago I was doing a Google search for images of hands and who should come up but none other than MC Escher! Noo-noo noo-noo Weird..... :ph34r:

Being here rather than doing work seems to be some sort of epidemic! :lol:

I wish I could get paid to just play on the internet all day.

[kittymao]

you didn't know Escher!? * drops dead*

* can no longer finish her TRF becuase she's uhm... dead and stuff.*

*returns as zombie, loses interest in TRF and hunts down brains*

[Curlita]

Quickly stuffs brain in desk drawer so that zombiekittymao will not find it.

Reflects that life not much different now, without brain. Perhaps sacrificed brain to internet years ago.

Leaves to hunt down chocolate.

[Skilyne]

I'm BAT FREE!!!

He came over to bat hunt, we couldn't find it at all, and so we abandoned that for something more fun :ph34r:

It must have gotten out earlier this morning when I was chasing it about with my vacuum cleaner attachment and a towel.

I've been informed they are quite wily and can slip into and around small spaces without being noticed...so it is possible.

Three Random Facts: Therapy Session

I've been on the outs with a friend for the past 6 months. I suspected that he had feelings for me, and thought it was inappropriate to continue the friendship.

He wrote back and said that he didn't, which made me feel stupid an embarrassed that I'd told him I thought so.

I just finally wrote back to tell him that I want to continue our friendship, although I'm not sure how that will work...

[Larrissa]

molex is the little plug in thingie at the end of a power cord inside the computer.

work happened. im alive. brain status unknown.

im starting to really realize the fact that im about to have another life-upheaval. this ones major too, as waas the last one.

Hopefully you are able to continue the friendship with him Erica I!!!

I did something tonight that I probably shouldn't have done...but I'm not sure if I feel badly about it or not...it's a long story.

I hope that at work tommorow, I'll have some of the "answers" to how I feel, or at least be able to figure SOMETHING out.

[hammerquill]

At the end of a day unusually sultry for our area, the clouds came in low as I was leaving work, in colors of canary and 10k gold, to bunch dark and low against the hills, creating an evening light of bright pre-sunset under dark, low, blueblack cloudbanks, which I revel in on the rare occasions when it presents itself.

I just let myself in for another LMAO commitment without actually joining an LMAO.

It'll be fun, though.

[kamoke]

I wonder what I'll be like in 30 years.. will I have a house and kids, with a job that makes me smile. Will I have anger problems, unable to hold on to anyone.
It's so difficult to picture.
I mean, it honestly seems like last week I was afraid to look at older kids because I was just plain scared. Now I am those older kids, and those young ones are now looking at me, thinking how old I am..

I always want to ask older folks what their biggest regrets in life are... I don't want to have regrets, and maybe by knowing theirs I can avoid those certain things

but I think sometimes I like to believe in fate.. but it seems like thats just too easy. We must have some say in what we turn out as. shouldn't we?

[kamoke]

you people are the only ones I really talk to now.. though I'm really just talking to myself - venting I guess

i got a new superstrong dandruff shampoo yesterday. it smells like a perm.

but, i have dry skin on my scalp, my face, and my ears. i gotta help it somehow.

[Curlita]

Lilac, your son is definitely your son! What a cutie.

First day of school. Makes me want to go out and buy new clothes and school supplies. Isn't it funny how programmed we get into that?

I like reading about the new-to-college experiences too - makes me remember my first few days in the form. Probably the biggest culture shock I ever experienced.

[Curlita]

If i lived closer to gwensmom, I would buy a dozen of her casseroles to freeze for after the baby comes.

I keep thinking I should cook ahead and freeze things, but I have no enthusiasm for cooking right now as it is, and so many other things to do to get ready for the baby. Ack!

I've been having a very hard time getting to work this week, and once I get there, a very hard time getting anything done. :(

[gwensmom]

If I lived near Curlita I would make her some casseroles for free!

Don't bother cooking and freezing right now Erica. Just tell other people to do it for you when they ask how they can help.

Aww, Lilac's son looks so cute waiting for the bus! So how was Kennywood?

Bars cooling.

Dishes not done.

I'm hungry, but I don't really feel like cooking after having made grapefruit bars.

I don't really feel like eating out, either.

I'd order something, but all the flyers got thrown out at some point...

Okay, I'm intrigued. What on earth is in grapefruit bars?

I finally checked the voicemail at work and we had 15 messages! Cripes!

So far I have been more productive today than yesterday. Good Erica.

[Cuilanië]

Sigh. I think I'll go out after all. But the options are rather limited in this neighbourhood.

Asian, couscous, Indian, or Japanese. And a lot of fast food thingies (including McD).

The better couscous place burned a year and a half ago. Gas explosion, apparently. It still hasn't been rebuilt.

Okay, I'm intrigued. What on earth is in grapefruit bars?


All good things. Flour and cornmeal, butter, sugar, eggs, grapefruit juice and zest...

The recipe being a bit long to post, I'll gladly PM it to anyone who asks. :) (Just PMed you, Erica.)

Alright, I'm too hungry to stay in. Think I'll go have sushi. :wave:

[Skilyne]

My day at work was ok...but certainly nothing grand. I'm not sure of the answers I was wondering about yet, but I'm working on it.

My ears and throat hurt REALLY badly today...and it makes me not want to eat or drink anything...which I know is a bad choice on my part.

I'd better not be getting sick!

[siafu]

i rate. the cat was on my lap for a good while

i got my forty bucks for answering questions for the sake of science

a tooth emergency is the headliner

[Lilac]

Kennywood was fun, as you can tell from my son's face....

[tanagee]

I bought 2 t-shirts for $3.49 each at kittymao's evil workplace.

Just talked to my hubby, after a late start Tuesday they are now 150 miles outside Memphis.

I need to get a diaper on my kid and get her down for a nap.

[Larrissa]

i wore my new gigantic boots to work

my feet hurt

im glad to be home

[kittymao]

I feel too nervousnessy for my own good. Like I should not be so nervousnessy and more Portfolio-y or more artsy. Did that even make ANY sense?!

I am hungry and we have some interesting ice cream, but I'm not sure if I want to have some becuase I know Rudy likes it when I wait to do things with him, instead of doing them alone. Another one of those no-makey-sensey facts, yesyes?

Kamoke's fact/question has got my brain whirling. I never really thought about what I'd be like when I was older. I just figured I'd be who I am now, only with weak joints, bones and the ability to fall asleep at Slayer concerts.

[siafu]

i am having social anxiety

i want to stay home from my own burrito party

i feel super lame for not knowing eight people who can come.

[Larrissa]

my boss is a very cool lady and i feel bad that im deceiving her

she doesnt know i plan to quit once i reach 500$

i baked lots of bread today and we still ran out of white

[Larrissa]

i dont want to be old

i have my second paycheck already

almost halfway there

AND

32 hours on a freaking bus seems a little long

i may consider a plane

theyeahyeahsong is loading, still

[Skilyne]

Changed my avatar...still me in the picture though.

YIPPEE YIPPEE YIPPEE...tommorow is Friday!!!

Theresa, I'd come to your Burrito Party if I lived closer!!!

Quite right lilac... I do love kennywood, even with all the new rides my fav. is still the Jack Rabbit!

I feel hot and very gross, I need to move to Alaska... Pittsburgh weather sucks.

Although it would be good for a night swim.

:rofl: I loved that.

Yes, I'm still awake. Watched Pirates of the Caribbean on DVD with my roommate and his roommate. I hadn't seen it yet.

Which means that it's almost three, and I'm still wide awake. Wheeeee! :rolleyes:

[kamoke]

k. jesperson

laundry done, house partially cleaned, dishes half done

work was decent ;)


wheres blue?!

[Lilac]

Just for Oreogrrl.....

Taken while I was standing in line to get on.

I love the Jackrabbit, too....but my favorite is the Thunderbolt.

[Obsidian_Cat]

You don't really grow old, just the outsidey bits.

I rode my bike for a long time tonite.

They really need to paint those speed bumps in the new neighborhood...

[Cuilanië]

The dishes from making grapefruit bars were done, but not by me. I kinda like that. ;)

3am, pokin' around...

I don't really have facts to post. Sometimes I just like to hear myself talk. Or type. Whatever.

:lol:

[Cuilanië]

My glasses have come back to me, but my headband's still lost. :(

The night is cold and my window's wide open. <shivers>

19.

[Skilyne]

Sometimes my house feels more like a boarding house...where we all come and go as we wish and we live in our own little worlds and rooms.

My Mom also welcomes anyone to stay with us, so quite frequently we have a few "non-members" staying the night...such as my brother's girlfriend, my friends, friends of friends who need a place...foreigners...my Mom welcomes all.

It's kind of a neat way to live I suppose...but it's certainly different. It was much more traditional when I was younger, but like I said...now it is a bit like a boarding house.

[Skilyne]

Nobody is on playing tonight!!! *calls out for fellow N'vessers..hears an echo*

Ok...well, I'll go try to amuse myself somehow...

So happy tommorow is Friday.

[Larrissa]

macaroni!

i smell like sandwiches!

jacksonville!

[Larrissa]

sometimes i am quite unsure

sometimes i am too sure

i wish i could find the middle and maybe stay there, if it turns out to be nice ...

[Larrissa]

i just seem to love to love ...

[Lilac]

I need to get offline and get my son's stuff ready for school, but I don't feel like doing a damn thing.

I don't want to go to work tomorrow...and I think that I'm just tired of the direction in which my life is going. The thing is, I don't know what I want to change about it...

Sometimes I think I'm seriously mental......

Lilac, I do not think you could have articulated the way I am feeling any better...that is so me! :lol:

I'm hungry, but don't want to hurt my throat by eating.

La-La-La...sort of sleepy, but not really.

Well, you could do something radical like go off and found your own business...

But yeah, there's a lot of that going around.

Tonight I have to get with it and do some work on the quotation dictionary stuff, which I've been neglecting. My next deadline's coming up.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

I met yet another boy that my old friend from highschool de-virginzed.

She de-virginizes a lot of guys, straight or gay.

Unrelated I have my doubts, although probably unfounded.

[Cuilanië]

I fell asleep.

I'm awake again.

Tomorrow is looming, and I'm going to have trouble facing it.

[siafu]

the burrito party turned out good. i did what i wanted and gave free food to as many people as i had the ability. it made some random people happy.

i drank like a baby fish.

everyone liked each other, except heidi's ex's partner. she doesn't like heidi. kinda falls in the so what category.

[Cuilanië]

blah.

grumph.

one of 'those' mornings.

[Cuilanië]

Cold grey morning here. I'm not convinced the season is summer.

Must...see...doctor...today!!! I've been putting it off.

I should make myself something fresh and healthy for lunch.

[Lilac]

I came into work early (7:00) so that I can leave early. No real reason to do so...just a change of routine, I guess.

And Yes, I should have founded my own business when I had the chance...well...actually, I still do have the chance, but I figure I'll stick this job out for another year or so to gain more geotechnical experience.

I hate when I feel like I made a wrong decision and have to justify it!

The three 24-year-old sweaters went for $20 and some change on eBay.

Clothes are buy one, get one free in our thift shop today. For the fabulous low price of $3.50, I got four sweaters to resell or unravel and sell the yarn. Someone stop me- I am supposed to be decluttering my house, not bringing more stuff home!

I had better get some work done, seeing that I am at work and getting paid for being here.

[Obsidian_Cat]

I had breakfast for lunch.

Libby makes great french toast!

And it was cheap. :)

He's going to Bowling Green this weekend and then will head up to Indy, drop off his race car and his buddy, then drive to Chicago to see his Mommy. Wednesday he is back in Indy, and I am in Chicago. Labor Day or Tuesday he is back on the road to California. WHEW!

Need to go to Staples for Printer ink. Office Depot is closer, but Staples gives you a discount with your Amex business card.

After the ink is replenished I have to print a bunch of crap for a dispute with a internet hosting company.

[Serenity]

Two hours and ticking... then no more work until, oh, May sometime? Or is it June (please say it's June!!)

Yesterday Mrs. Heffern and her grand-daughter, Tinka, who is two, came over for supper. Since mom always insists to cooking salt meat with the boiled veggies, I had to make my own food...what does this prove? A person can ideed live on cold canned food-- though with a frown.

When the Heffern's left I asked my dad what I was like when I was two... he made a whining sound... he got a smack at the back of the head for it too :P

[Serenity]

Looks like I get off an half an hour early-- boss just came up to ask if I would like to leave work at 4:30 instead of five. The sooner the better.

I've got to clean up my room when I get back... huge mess, paper everywhere...

I've got to start packing soon... "only a week, seven days, six-- if you don't include today--, aprroximately 164 hours, 9840 minutes, 590400 seconds... not too long..." I keep saying this.

[Larrissa]

box ready for ghosts

garage mostly cleaned and organized

"oh, you" is such a sweet thing to say

[Larrissa]

Soundgarden vs. Kylie Minogue. In my room, Soundgarden wins. :ph34r:

I want my headband back.

[Cuilanië]

I could close the window and play it louder...

My right arm hurts from scrubbing one pot for over 15 minutes. There was some seriously burnt and caked stuff in there.

My only goal this weekend is to have stuff ready to mail by Monday morning.

At work this morning I did some things I thought would take forever and they didn't! I had been dreading them and putting them off all this time.

My goal for the weekend it to have a whole lot of auctions ready to start on Tuesday night.

[nymphette]

Since I still have those three undeveloped films sitting on my desk from way back when (:rolleyes:), pics might take awhile.

I still have a bunch of books on my bed...

[Cuilanië]

Robyyyynnn!!!! :wave: :hug: Good to see you! :) How's Harrison?

I'm wearing the lovely blue-green sweater my maternal grandmother knitted for me. It's been a long time since I've worn it. I've had it for over 10 years.

My ink cartridges are done for. Time to change them...

[Cuilanië]

I love this Soundgarden album. I keep forgetting that.

It's nothing special, though. I just like it.

The trio for this mood is: Soundgarden, Superunknown; Stone Temple Pilots, Core; Alice In Chains, Dirt. Yes, my college years. ;)

[Lilac]

I'm home from work!!! yay, yay, yay! :yay: :yay: :yay:

I have no idea what to make for dinner tonight. It's too hot to cook, so I'll probably end up going out...like I've been doing almost everyday lately.

Hello Cuilanië!!! Guess what? 19 ;)

Oh, crap, is that why I'm here?

I knew it was a bad idea to buy a whole package of Newman-Os on the way in to work.

Robyn, we miss you too! Big hugs to you and Harrison!

I think I'm due next - Shelley is a few weeks behind me and Angela is a month or so behind her. I think.

I've been setting up the nursery. I need to post pictures.

[Cuilanië]

God(s), now I want to go dancing. Too bad there aren't any places to my taste in Paris. ;)

My mother called today and talked to me for over half an hour.

Time for a beer, I think. :P

[Larrissa]

call me smitten kitten, well!

:evil:

its funny because its true

[Cuilanië]

Revisiting old songs that are very much part of my inner landscape...

I'm listening to a weird old mix tape of mine.

Hello transistions: from Québécois garage rock to Ozzy. :P

[siafu]

i'm antsy but good

tonight i'm going to see ms. jett

and her blackheads

[Cuilanië]

The guys are watching The Sweetest Thing on DVD, and I'm here, rocking out and drinking beer. Role reversal, anyone? :lol:

I really want to go out & dance. <shakes head>

I miss the Café Campus, but that was best on Thursday nights.

[Larrissa]

sad pizza :P

evil paper collection :angry:

falling asleep while talking is mighty rude :lol:

[Curlita]

I'm excited about going back to yoga on Monday.

It is cool and sunny outside right now, like fall but without rain.

I am sleepy and want to get a coffee.

[siafu]

there are some guys outside cutting down a tree with a chainsaw

i feel bad for the tree

but i feel worse for the guys. they are not using eye protection. i mentioned it and it wasn't a big deal. i said, well, ok, but your life is gonna suck when you lose an eye.

i am a punk, i guess.

[Cuilanië]

Well, I don't know, T. Just because they don't care doesn't make you wrong to point it out.

Guns'N'Roses, crochet, internet, and a beer. Weird mix of things to be doing.

I think I'm on a spin, here. I shouldn't even be online, though. :rolleyes:

[oreogrl1]

I feel like I haven't been in here in ages!
I missed everyone :hug:
I am extremely bored, but I don't feel like doing anything...is this normal?

Ps... Thanks Lilac :wub: For the Jackrabbit I'm getting all nostalgic!

[Larrissa]

im hungry!

i sorted a bunch more papers

started shredding old journals and doodles .. going to make paper to make into new journals

[Larrissa]

Mmmmmmm

:wub:

:lol:

[Skilyne]

Love is a tricky business...but I love it anyways.

I'm doing much better emotionally today...finally! Not 100% or anything, but certainly better.

My Mom mentioned by birthday the other day...and I realized how quickly it is coming up...that's craziness...where has my year gone?

[oreogrl1]

I am very happy skilyne is having a good day
I just noticed that if i start my day out well that things don't bother me.
On the other hand if my morning is crappy, it's just preparing me for a breakdown. Eh...

[Larrissa]

why has she got all in my head lately?

a month ago i was convinced she was diabolical

but if i had done that, i wouldnt have the whole Z thing

[Lilac]

Larrisssssssssa is so cryptic! :huh:

Skilyne's new avatar rocks! :rock:

Oreogrl should go to Kennywood and ride the Jackrabbit! :)

[Larrissa]

sorry.

i cant help it.

if i annoy myself this much, i cant fathom what others must feel :lol: :lol: :lol:

[oreogrl1]

DO you think the Jackrabbit would feel betrayed if I rode the aero 360?
Do I have 18/19 dollars it costs to go?
eh... probably but I need someone to go with and my frriends are poor,any takers? hehe

[Larrissa]

disgustingly happy

my stomach hurts from laughing at nothing so much

im going to package up the extra happy and sent it around to you guys ...

[oreogrl1]

these were the last things I laughed at... my youngest sister said them(Muhaha)
You're not an ugly person. you're a pretty monkey.

I don't think the Jackrabbit would mind if you rode Aero 360...just make sure you don't eat before you go on it!!! :lol:

Kennywood coasts $28.00 to get in now. Isnt that ridiculous?

I'm thinking about taking my son down for Halloween Fright nights...wanna come?

[Larrissa]

i have AOL set in spanish so i dont understand the shit they try to throw at me. its often amusing

my mom and i hung out alot today

mmm must stay up so i can call him at work ...

[Curlita]

I ate an entire bag of cookies over the course of the day and now I'm not hungry for dinner.

I'm doing an audit of all the baby clothes I've received. This kid has 13 onesies in the 0-3 month size! I'm trying to decide if I should return some of them, or just plan on doing less laundry... he might not be that size more than a few weeks!

There are some things that should just not become weighty decisions.

[oreogrl1]

but wait there's more... she's such a smartass.

I was talking to her and she stops me then says and I quote"hold that thought,I need to do something interesting" she walks over and stares at a wall "yup, a lot more interesting."

Funny smartass :rofl:

[Lilac]

Curlita, take it from me, you can NEVER have enough onsies!!!!

And when that little guy comes, you will be too tired to do laundry.

Enjoy your baby excesses!!!!

[oreogrl1]

Geeze, I'm not used to paying full price at kennywood.
I always get the tickets my school sells ...I only paid 15 dollars this year both times I went.
I've never been on halloween...I'd love to go!

[Larrissa]

im going to depart for a few minutes

i will be back

i cant stay away you know

oh, film should be kept in your fridge after it's exposed.. unless you don't want to, of course

it's 11:50 pm and I'de like to hit the clubs, or continue getting drunk somewhere else :lol:

[Larrissa]

sweet.

i cannot be squashed.

unless you have a bulldozer or something similar.

[frizball]

i cannot believe how stupid i am sometimes

i went out and got trashed last night with someone who i had met the same day.

i threw up in his beautiful truck, and i thought he would never talk to me again.

great first impression

[frizball]

but he did talk to me, in fact he has called 3 times today to see whats up and if i want to hang out :)

the worst part is that i went all emotional when i got drunk and discussed my issue...which, probably should be kept to myself. but it means that he isnt calling b/c he wants a relationship. b/c that issue- well, it was clear i dont want one.


that made no sense. how vague. I wish i could say what i want to, that would be too embarrising

[frizball]

i made a drunken phone call, and i dont know what i said


i'm afraid i might have said something I didnt want to. and that something might mess up a v. important relationship. and that is killing me


i had said i was not going to drink.. i have a problem with that. i seroiusly am considering some help.

he was upset when i called drunk. he said "i thought you were going to stop. You said you'd stop." thats all i remember. i dont know what i said.


this is killing me. matters of the heart are way too confusing for the mind to work out.

Thank you for the validation, Lilac! God knows the last thing I want to do right now is wander around the mall with a bunch of onesies saying, "Did someone buy this here? Can I exchange it? Maybe for something that would fit a five year old, as that is the only size I don't have yet?"

I am tired and cranky and should go to bed.

On the plus side, I am already well into my to-do list for the weekend, which does not officially start for me until 5 PM tomorrow.

Wikipedia makes me happy...random page-random page-random page.

Scoo keeps crying for more food and he was just fed! No wonder he weighs 15 lbs.
Frustration.

There's something about the way my bed smells that makes me want to stay there all day. Smells kind of like vanilla. (I think that's a sign that I've eaten too many cookies..my sweat is starting to smell like vanilla?).

[frizball]

I want to talk, but no one else seems to.

I feel unloved for some stupid reason and I hate that.


I alwyas second guess myself, and I have a hard time making any type of decision. <_<

[siafu]

ms jett says i am her fetish

ok, maybe not meeeeeee personally

i have one soft hand from a free skin treatment at the fair

[Cuilanië]

I should go make coffee and fix myself breakfast before the guys get up. The kitchen's too small for three people.

My hair's all curly. Again. :)

18.

[Skilyne]

Hugs to Frizball :hug:

I think that I am going to take this whole day JUST FOR ME and be as selfish as I want to be. I don't ever get a whole day that is really MY day, and I think I need one.

I'm going to sleep whenever I feel like it, do some art, take a nice hot bath, maybe go buy myself a new pair of jeans (I only have one pair), maybe go for a drive, and in general just enjoy myself.

Lilac...have fun at Ozzfest...I went last year and it was a good time.

[kamoke]

I love those days, too bad I won't be having one today..

ok, mum gets home tomorrow and I've yet to start cleaning :lol:

It's 11:30 and storming. I was planning on leaving for Ozzfest at about noon...but I think I'll wait awhile....

Bipsy the cat is wailing because she's a spoiled brat and doesnt want to eat her dry food. She has to have her Fancy Feast, and I'm out of it.

i left suddenly

i shouldve stayed

[Larrissa]

i have to get ready for work

dont let me forget

i will look at the clock in a few minutes i will already be an hour late .. that would suck

[Cuilanië]

I get confused with these new avatars: I keep thinking Lilac is Katiekat (long time no see! :( )... And I don't recognise Larrissa.

I must go to the grocery store. Now.

One of my second cousins just called, she'll be in Paris Sept.6-9th or so. She's going to study in Montpellier for a semester, lucky her... :)

I fell asleep this afternoon and dreamt I was playing some kind of hopscotch with métro tracks and oncoming métros. In that same dream, I'd been missing and presumed dead, and my whole life had moved on without me. Creepy.

I need to do some laundry.

I like using keyboard shortcuts instead of the mouse.

[velma]

I like to change avatars frequently, too! B)

I started smoking again.

Having a day all to yourself is pure bliss!

[Curlita]

I had insomnia again last night and now I am a semi-zombie.

On the plus side, I did get all my shower thank-you notes written.

I have appointments with two potential child care people on Monday.

[velma]

I'm wondering if AlienSpy is a mommy yet. (She's been such a beautiful mommy-to-be!)

I'm wondering if Lilac smokes wackybaccy & gets crazy at concerts.

I'm wondering if Larrissa made it to work on time.

[Curlita]

AlienSpy had her baby on August 8 - there is a separate thread chronicling the events somewhere around here.

I saw her lurking around this morning and tried to send her a PM, but it wouldn't go through for some reason.

I'm not a good public servant today. I keep wishing that people would not talk to me.

[Cuilanië]

I had Pho soup for dinner. :)

I'd like to have a beer, but I already have too much liquid in my stomach... It'll have to wait.

The grocery store was understocked because tomorrow they're closed. I hate it when they do that.

[Skilyne]

I bought myself some fun new photo editing software...I've been having far too much fun with it thus far, and it is bound to get even more out of control!

The "Day Of Erica-Marie" is going well thus far...although I have accomplished virtually nothing productive.

My brother sent 3 more rolls of film from Iraq...so you can all expect that I'll be posting pictures soon...

[siafu]

i got feedback from an agent on heidi's book

the agent was helpful and matter o fact

i give her and us a thumbs up

[tanagee]

I need to take a shower.

I need someone esle to take care of my kid for a few hours...I am getting really mad at her for not using her potty and that is wrong since she is still learning.

My bathing suit that I ordered on the 12th was not shipped until the 24th so I may not even get it in time for my trip. :'(

[Larrissa]

i made it to work five minutes early

my mom went in subway to pick me up but i was already home and she talked to my boss who said over and over "shes a godsend!"

i am loved

[Larrissa]

breathmakers - so delicious.

my mom got me gold eyeshadow today and spent too much on it, but oh well

its a really nice day outside but im in here

[Cuilanië]

I'm hanging around, but I don't feel like playing.

I shouldn't have eaten the onions in the soup. Bad Eve.

I'm tired of my muscles being sore all the time.

[oreogrl1]

My teeth feel like they are rotting in my mouth...
I ate entirely too many soft mints...
I couldn't help myself they are oh so yummy :drool:

[Larrissa]

i went to the park

i told the exassman to have a nice life

laughter is a major point of importance in a person being attractive

[gwensmom]

While I was out shopping I saw a new kind of diaper ointment called "Butt Paste". I kid you not. If it had been less expensive I would have sent some to Curlita for a joke.

Tonight I browned 4.5 lbs of ground beef for making casseroles tomorrow. I drained the grease into a can and went to put it in the freezer which is on top of our refrigerator. When I opened the freezer door, something on top of the fridge fell and knocked the grease can out of my hand. I had to spend 45 minutes cleaning about 2 cups of grease off my floor. :'( (Gwensdad did not even offer to help <_< ).

Doesn't that sound like something that would happen to Lilac?

[velma]

I've been naughty on eBay, but I tell myself it's for ART! I bought some vintage children's hankies for a book I want to make.

I want to have another Nness swap--I still have too much stuff.

I love you all!! :wub:

[Skilyne]

The posting of more pictures of my brother has begun...LOOK OUT!

Here is one of him sleeping in his rack in Iraq...

[Larrissa]

my dog likes to swim

i like to watch my dog swim

i dont like it when she shakes off the water in close proximity to my person

[Larrissa]

i should be participating in my own life right now

i sortof am

but the whole thing with the internet ... well ... its a little unreal

[Cuilanië]

Still awake, still up... I'm not even undressed for bed.

I've decided to finish this round of my crochet project. It's 3/4 done, now. Problem is, every round is longer than the previous one... (You work from the middle outwards.) I'm near the end, now.

I haven't done much by way of getting stuff ready to mail on Monday. Sigh.

[Cuilanië]

The internet is just as real as you want to make it... trust me. ;)

I had chocolate ice cream tonight.

I didn't have a beer, because that interferes with my dexterity - and I need that for crochet.

[Cuilanië]

Mission accomplished: the round is done. There are three left to do, and those are so easy I might even finish the piece tonight. :crossed:

I'm having a cup of tea. Yes, yes, it's quarter to four... but I'm expecting a phone call. :wub:

The moon was too low in the sky tonight, so I couldn't see it from my window - only its light reflected off the clouds. Pretty. ^_^

[Curlita]

I'm extremely tired.

I do not feel like talking about deck designs with my brother in law.

Nevertheless, he is here to do just that.

[velma]

Curlita needs to take care of herself! :hug:

I want to stay up all night.

I'm hungry but we don't have anything that's calling to me.

[Cuilanië]

Crochet pattern failed to mention an important detail. I must now undo the round I just started.

I'm getting kinda tired. Tea helps, though.

I need to start at one end of my room and move/sort/clean/vacuum everything.

[Cuilanië]

I had to look up the spelling of 'vacuum'.

Jeez, that means my brain is starting to shut down.

Damn.

[oreogrl1]

my brain is frozen.
He is on the phone :wub:
We are trying to keep each other awake...not really working

I'm hungry and have the munchies, but one of my molars is hurting when I chew.

I have a dentist appointment, for a cleaning, when I get back from Chicago I am debating calling on Monday to see if they can get me in before I leave.

Then again, it's good for me not to eat. ;)

[Curlita]

Thank you for the hug, Velma.

I need to slow down and trust that things will either get done before the baby gets here or I will decide that they are not that important.

Right now I am fighting my obsession with unpacking knick knacks in order to go to bed.

I had a dream about Kamoke last night....
291659


thats strange.. well, I think so
Dreaming about a person you've never met seems special maybe

I'm actually in a bad mood now, and I guess I don't really know why.. probably all the little things throughout this day

my mom comes home tomorrow.. the cupboards are empty of all that is good and the fridge is in the same shape. Three weeks before starvation.. that seems right enough

*i've been thinking, and it's great that I'm dream worthy.. and maybe you're not the only dreams I visit at night..
what was this dream about?

[kamoke]

I managed to clean most of the place up.. minus the dishes that are soaking in the sinks

my friend's mom is a true alcoholic and it worries me some.. but I plan to do nothing about it

budget predicted to be down 24 billion(or million?). Ultimatly, hours will be cut in september for all associates. I'm not sure yet if this is good or bad ;)

[kamoke]

i'll grow facial hair for a bit because it's silly

i'd like to be able to work the sewing machine so I could make tight pants

I haven't painted in a long time and it makes me sad

[oreogrl1]

Ants in my toes
him on my brain :wub:
no dishes in the sink... all is right in the world.

[Skilyne]

I took a nap today and it has screwed up my sleeping patterns.

I don't care, because tommorow is Sunday and there is no work.

I'm hot and sweaty and it is SO MUGGY here that I feel as if I am in the tropics...but not in a good way.

[oreogrl1]

lovely air conditioning
my hands smell like chicken soup
It is however a gross day to cuddle and be friendly... :(

[Cuilanië]

I'm awake... Don't know how long I slept.

I was woken up by a little kid playing at the top of her voice. She stopped as soon as I got up. <_<

I should make coffee, but that means cleaning the pot...

[Cuilanië]

Made coffee. Too strong.

I don't know what I want for breakfast. Something hot and not prepared by me, perhaps.

The day looks like I feel.

[kamoke]

the hunger, it hurts! It's either peanut butter or eggs :lol:

This is me doing the dishes apparently :lol:

I'm feeling lazy.. I work in an hour ;)

:lol:

[Obsidian_Cat]

Too many posts to catch up on....

Left eyeball twitching...

Probably should do something else.... :P

[Curlita]

I am wishing I had not packed so many activities into my weekend.

I really just want to lay in bed with a book.

One of the activities is crafting with a friend, and another is shopping with a friend, so its not like they won't be fun and productive experiences...

[Larrissa]

mmhmm. good day to all of you.

i am happily messed up today.

PMS can be accurately blamed still.

[Lilac]

I'm tired but need to get some stuff done. :(

Have a lot to do to get ready for vacation. Leaving this coming Friday.

Ozzfest was a good time.

[Cuilanië]

Yawn.

I should eat something substantial, but I'm not all that hungry.

17.

[Cuilanië]

*Ahem*, let's try this again...

We have a Michael Jackson fan in the building... plays 'Beat It' and similar songs almost every day.

It's raining at last, after threatening rain all day.

Smell of cold coffee makes me gag a little...

[Cuilanië]

I finished the crochet work this afternoon. Now I have to tuck in the loose threads, wash it, and iron it.

I'm reading the Illuminatus trilogy; it's been hanging around unread for over a year, poor thing.

I'm wearing black from head to foot. Not at all unusual.

[Lilac]

I'm totally unispired and lazy today.

It's hot and threatening to storm. I'm waiting for the thunder!

I got a dollar bill at Ozzfest last night with a www.wheresgeorge.com stamp on it. I just now registered it.

[oreogrl1]

Bored
Sleepy eyes
shower...now

[Larrissa]

[kamoke]

also try whereswilly.com (http://www.whereswilly.com)

my friends like to rub it in my face that I missed two excellent nights out..

blah blah blah

[gwensmom]

Today is my mother's birthday. I gave her an out of print book she wanted and some discontinued makeup she had been looking for. Also, a sheet of those new magnolia stamps since she was born in Mississippi.

I am working on unravelling a deep red chenille sweater. I got it at a thrift store and will try to sell the yarn.

Tomorrow I have to go to the podiatrist and then pay our city taxes.

[gwensmom]

Aww Lilac left. Tamara are you avoiding me???? :'(

I have not had a purring cat in my lap in ages. :(

Early this morning I dreamed that I was left all alone to take care of Gwen. That dream has bummed me out all day. I told Gwensdad about it and he said that would not happen because he wasn't going anywhere.

[siafu]

i made a hollandaise sauce. i ain't scared of no sauce.

i got spray paint yesterday.

let's go taggin

[Skilyne]

I bought blank notecards today so I can make my own cards...I've already made one. And I think I'm going to make my own Christmas cards this year as well.

I bought a copy of Somerset Studio also, and it has been inspiring me to try some altered books...or something similar.

I also decopaged a jar I've had laying around for awile now.

I've been feeling artsy.

[Skilyne]

Not entirely sure I'd like to go to work tommorow...but such is life I suppose. We are short-handed for a few weeks, and the extra work falls to me...which just ends up being a stresser.

Awww...Sarah! Your husband sounds sweet.

What are you doing with the spray paint Theresa?

[siafu]

lol. the real answer is...stenciling some shirts. my monkey shirt and a fist shirt that says, Fight the Man.

i smell like food.

i wish i had stone temple pilots on cd

[Lilac]

Oh noooo! I'm not avoiding you Sarah!!! I'm just popping in and out...trying to avoid having to do real life stuff!

I have to go to my Mom's house in a little bit to get a tape she recorded for my son. I'm hoping that the VCR still works because I havent used it in ages. I'm tired and grumpy and don't feel like driving into town. :angry:

I'm not in the mood to go to Mrytle Beach this Friday.
