Three random facts:

[cindi1023]

I'm out of the loop, too.

I know I need to work on stuff before I leave on vacation, but I'm still feeling uninspired.

I bought a really cute outfit today. I was in one of those stores that limits the number of things you take into the fitting room, and I wore the outfit to go swap out some clothes, and another shopper told me I *really* needed to buy the outfit. :D Maybe I'll wear it tomorrow and get extra cute points!

[Skilyne]

Yeah Kittymao...I hear you. Same here.

I cut one of my fingernails too short...and now my finger hurts.

I hate that.

[Larrissa]

i found out something not good about my sister and aunt and cousin. :'(

i dont know

i do not want to have the PMS this month, pleasepleaseplease i dont need that right now

[Skilyne]

***HUGS*** to Larrissa!!!

I got $250 for my birthday...BADLY NEEDED!

I'm feeling stressed about stuff.

[Larrissa]

this has "thrown me for a loop" as they say

oh golly

^O)

[oreogrl1]

Things are a little tense here, considering a very serious trial has been post-poned by the Asshole again
I am in such a cruddy mood.
Hey,I'm sure someone here can forge me a doctor's note so I dont have to go back to school for say... the rest of the year.

[Larrissa]

miss skilyne, thank you

ohhhhhhhkay calm down there

helplessness sucks

[bluecrayon]

okay, then, I'm leaving.

I've done all I can do to cheer this place up...

I can't make anyone dance though.

[Skilyne]

I've got to play my cards right.

Hmmm...

I'm thinking this could be hard, but I want what I want...

[Skilyne]

I'm not a selfish or demanding person.

However, there is something that I am wanting.

It is probably not what you are thinking. I'm not telling just the same.

[Skilyne]

Tommorow is Wednesday!!! :) Halfway through the week after tommorow...

I hate the comment he made today.

He (not my boy) said that I look like a 12-year old boy instead of a 23-year old woman...since my hair is so short and I'm so thin and small chested. ASS. I don't think I do, but it always causes that little bit of doubt.

[Lilac]

Skilyne, you're beautiful and hip, so you worry about a thing!

Most men in Western PA still go by that old 80's standard of beauty - big boobs and big hair.

You'll fit into NYC perfectly!

Thank you so much Lilac!!! :)

I sometimes feel so...I don't know. Ugly maybe. But I'm not sure that is even the word I want to use.

We are always hardest on ourselves I suppose.

[tanagee]

I have a whiny 2 1/2 year old on my lap saying "I can't do anyfing anymore".

She will not let me watch TV, make dinner, change the sheets on my bed, NOTHING!!!

She's decided she can have a peanut butter sandwich now...better go!

[Curlita]

AM I really the first post since 7 PM? I find that hard to believe. MAybe the old disappearing post phenom.

I hate insomnia.

Wish we had some chocolate for a snack. Not desperate enough yet to try converting babking cocoa into something edible.

[tanagee]

There is a gigundo spider on my screen door but I can't get a good picture cuz it be dark outside.

My kid is still up :wacko:

She is on day 4 of attempting to sleep in the big girl bed.

[oreogrl1]

Today is just as crappy as yesterday
I have a feeling I am going to feel this way until the rape trial is over.
It is supposed to happen on this fri. if it is a bench trail next thurs. if it is jury...

[Larrissa]

[Larrissa]

peee ehm esssss began last night when doing the dishes made me cry

i laugh and smile during the cry quite often

i weird myself out alot

[stargal1998]

1. I'm debating whether or not to go to my cousin's wedding this weekend.

2. I went to her brother's this summer and it was lame, but I like the sister a whole lot better.

3. I just don't want to deal with my family. I WAS exposed to mono a week ago... Maybe some creative white lies are in order.

[stargal1998]

1. Earlier at work I put in a new set of contacts in the wrong eyes... And proceeded to walk around like this for 1/2 an hour.

2. My left eye is worse than my right.

3. The idea struck me in the bathroom that I'd put them in the wrong sides. And rather than go stand in front of the mirror I stayed in the stall so I didn't have to see anyone.

[stargal1998]

1. I'm the only one in here... waaaah!

2. No one likes me...

3. Cough, cough. Pretend mono is fun....

[Helquin]

Ack -- I gotta get out of here! There's hell to be raised today! :lol:

Happy Autumnal Equinox. Woohoo! Exact at 4:30pm GMT today.

Making good progress with my Fortune Teller LMAO documentation -- in case anyone reading this is one of the admirably patient participants! I didn't forget about this!

I'm blaming it all on my dumb scanner <_<

Bah!

[oreogrl1]

We just had a fire in the building.
It was out in 4 min.
I was hoping it was a bomb threat or something so I ould go home... sick I know.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

My wiring needs some minor repairs... I keep experiencing the wrong emotion warranted for the situation.

I am growing tired of the life of a hobo.

I need more than my bindles!!!!

When I was in college there was a bomb threat in the science building every time there was an organic chemistry test.

It wasn't me. I fulfilled my science requirements my freshman year and then stayed as far away from that science building as possible for the rest of my academic career.

I'm at the office but it's time to go home now :yay:

[kamoke]

I haven't talked to mom since friday..

she was supposed to be home on sunday

I can believe it! Organic Chemistry was torture!!!!

I was good at Chemistry, in general.

But I hated OrgChem with every fiber of my being!

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

I was feeling around my brain meats and have come to the conculsion that SOMETHING is missing.

What that something IS I do not know.

I think it's important to have back though.

[Christine_0701]

i have internet now!!

i'm back with a vengence :P

i'm getting my hair cut (well, styled) on monday

[Helquin]

I am so gonna burn: as a matter of principle I never misrepresent my opinion, but today I lied to another election poller. Big lies this time -- much more blatant than the first poll! :lol:

Don't put too much faith in these polls. Today I was a hard-line Bush supporter who initially opposed the war in Iraq but now I know only Cowboy George can make the world safe for democracy. :blink:

Actually I've been downloading anti-Bush flyers from "You Decide" (http://www.udecide.org) so I can make a bunch of copies to post in supermarkets and laundromats all over southern Ohio. :rolleyes:

I didn't drink the Kool-Aid. :D

[cindi1023]

The wood-grain of one of the doors in my office looks like 3 upside-down pandas in a row.

I need to remember to bring my camera in to work so I can document the above fact.

I think it would make great ATC's.

**bonus fact**
Fact #1 is literally the only good thing about working in this office right now. :ph34r:

***Hugs to Oreogrl***

I had an...interesting day at work. That is the only word that correctly describes the day.

Tommorow morning I will find something out.

[Larrissa]

soooo very sarcastic

bosslady and i = good

we got toasterthingies in subway now = TOASTY SUBS

[Larrissa]

people need to be more peoplicious with each other because im so sick of seeing someone in work and wanting to actually have more than sandwich questions but they always go away

i love rap really i do but not bad rap not rap by people whom seem like they are morons with hot girlfriends

i dont want to be anyones hot girlfriend

[Helquin]

All I remember about high school Chemistry class is that the teacher went ballistic one day about the evils of reading fiction. :lol:

Oh, Larrissa you would either so hate me or so love me as a customer. I vacillate between being Mr. Sunny Chatterbox and "that old guy with the attitude" :lol:

I'm using the smilies too much, huh? :huh:

Welcome back to N'ness, Christine! I know you only from your legend (#2 Poster). :D

[Larrissa]

welcome back to christine too! its been sooo long since i saw you around

i was just called a "post whore" :o

its awkward to give my boss narcotics

[Christine_0701]

legend as #2 poster? what ever happened to me being #1 poster, losing it and gaining it back in a couple months? *sniff sniff*

i will get my #1 spot back, so watch out cb :P

and thanks, it has been too long since i've been around ;)

[bluecrayon]

I'd love to be someone's hot girlfriend... you betcha!

I don't want to be someone's cold girlfriend.

and i don't want to be someone's invisible girlfriend.

[Larrissa]

why is it i have this layer of belly pudge but my pants dont fit anymore for being too big?

oh geee, 10% of me wishes i had used something OTHER than my damn name in here, for privacy reasons :ph34r:

this moment brought to you by the fact that .. ummm ... i dont how to word it properly. actually, how to word it at all. just a feeling.

dishonesty can be just hiding something when you know it should be shown

[Larrissa]

i wish i had a religious copout occasionally rather than this mix of unarticulated mismatched weird ideas

why the holy fuck would someone pay 10.00 for a thing of lotion?? (theres a tube here thats my sisters, bath and body works pleasures plumeria body cream) it smells SO BAD

ive got that peeling nose thing going on from being sick. ew.

[siafu]

my volunteer supervisor told me to apply for her old job

my brother's wife had a baby. it's their fourth.

they named her siena. i said, like the car? my dad said, no...and launched into a long list of other things named siena. :lol:

[Larrissa]

a question IS a fact! because i said so!

i should get out the sewing machine ive been meaning to for days!

the exclamation point is a very important part of online communication!

Skilyne thanks for the hug...I needed it.
The skin on my finger is all soft and waxy from not getting any oxygen where my thick band was.
Very gross.

[Larrissa]

:'( :D :wacko:

:unsure: ;) B)

:angry: :lol: :rolleyes:

lost it. again. i should go.

[Lilac]

Wow! Everybody is in here today!

I came home from work and my son had been boiling paper. What the hell possessed my mother to let him do that?

So, now she's gone home and I have a pot of mushy paper to contend with.

[Larrissa]

i

am

going

:wave:

[oreogrl1]

I shall miss larissa
I shall laugh uproariously at Lilac's mushy papery mess
I shall haunt these forums for another hour at least

[Skilyne]

I'm amused greatly by the boiling of the paper.

If I came home and found someone boiling paper...I'd certainly have a few questions for them.

I'm going to go take a shower now.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

I sign on you sign off.
This needs to cease and desist or I'll never be able to prove that I really don't like the taste of brains enough to eat yours.

My dad is sawing something in the basement, the smell of fresh sawdust is in the air.

I never used to have a signature, and now I do and I wonder if I should keep it or not anymore.

[Lilac]

This is the current state of affairs with the boiled paper.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v150/TamShad/boiledpaper.jpg

What a freaking mess.

[Lilac]

He tells me he shredded and boiled two Newsweeks magazines

some junk mail

an old copy of Charlotte's web

and maybe, just maybe - my credit card statement.

[oreogrl1]

No Kidding Lilac.
If you had one of them' special strainer type things, you could make paper... just add some food colouring.
I wish I could Dunk in basketball... totally random I know

That was what he was attempting - to make paper.

[Lilac]

oops...double posted myself! :lol:

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

I know how to make paper with a screen

Luckily if I was to come home to a sink full of boiled paper I would be able to actually create the paper as I have screens.
Pantyhose and clotheshangers can also work.

Otherwise you CAN use that paper as paper clay and kinda sculpt with it.
Just need to drain the excess water off.

[Christine_0701]

i made paper in grade 8 and 9 science

i have a lot of thinking to do tonight

anyone wanna do it for me? :P

[oreogrl1]

ooo ooo I want a special strainer thingy'
Where would I get one of em' new fangled things... I wonder.
I also need some special papery stuff... I think a trip to the art/ craft store is in order.

[Lilac]

Oh, thanks, Wonky!

That will give him something to do...sculpt with paper.

Yep, that will keep him busy for awhile!

Thank you thank you thank you!

[oreogrl1]

christine, I will do it for ya.
My brain needs something else to worry about.
Ooo, lilac, you must post pictures!

[Christine_0701]

heh. thanks ;)

my sister is annoying me (talking to me on msn)

i want a digital camera!

I just have a screen that I snagged from my parents shed, it was from a window of our old house which we tore down and set on fire.

I also have a silk screening screen that I have sacregliously used for papermaking aswell.

Making paper makes a mess.

Yeah, any time.
I think you can add some cornstarch to it or flour... whatever to help with it sticking together better or white school glue.... but it's not really needed.

[oreogrl1]

Wonky, you have a wealth of knowledge...
I like ya.
I'll have to steal one of the screens from our storm windows.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

You admire my wealth of knowledge but you don't question the fact we tore down a house then set it on fire?!?!?

Good, I like that.

It really happened too.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

flood control made me double post.

I hate that.

Actually I don't HATE it but it does irk me, especially when I don't notice right away.

[oreogrl1]

Wonky, "shhh... ::looks both ways:: don't tell anyone... but I'm a pyro" :evil:
Hey... Stop looking at me like that.
my foot feels tingly.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

I do not lie
note the small little figure next to BIG honking fire in the next post.
It's a very poor scan but it's apparently the best I can coax out of my mother's fax machine.

I could show you other less destructive photos now too.

I feel so smart for just figuring this all out.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

[attachmentid=248]ahhhhhh ok i got it to work I think.
yahoooy.

[oreogrl1]

cool.
I'm eating kitkat bites
anyone want to share?

[Skilyne]

Ohhh...ME ME ME!!!

I'm trying to be productive.

No luck.

[oreogrl1]

What I would really like right now would be york peppermint pattie bites.
Those are sooo good!
Rolling some kit-kat bites to skilyne.

Edited to add: I just realized that they have heath bar bites... I think I could die happy if I had some of those.

[tanagee]

I have just suceeded in listing my first item (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7924010940&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT) for auction on E-bay. I don't think any of you would want to buy it, because honestly I don't think anyone is gonna. Esp. since someone who doesn't know anything is selling the same thing for $500 right now (way under what it is worth). I am selling it for my hubby.

I just realized my sprinklers have been on for 2 hours.

My big gigundo spider was gone when I got up this morning.

[Skilyne]

I'm eating gummi worms.

I took a nice long bath with candles and all sorts of bubbly, foamy, and sweet-smelling things.

I'm relaxed.

[oreogrl1]

That sounds nice...
I could go for that, curl up in the tub, turn the jets on and read a book.
I'm convincing myself.

[Larrissa]

those candy bar bites, i have a name for them. fat capsules.

i dont know how to feel now that im not talking to a monster

i wonder about the ability of people to actually be with one another

[Lilac]

I'm going insane.

I really am.

Single parenthood can do that to you.

[Christine_0701]

i have class in half an hour

i had forgotten about it for most of the day, and remembered just 3 hours ago

i hate night classes

[oreogrl1]

I don't care if they are fat capsules...
I had a rough day.
screw the fat and hand over the bites!

[Lilac]

Goodnight all.

I've had enough of this day and am going to bed.

If I ever see another scrap of boiled paper, I'm going to freak.

[oreogrl1]

Nighty night Lilac
I need a advil
It's about that time for me too. Ta ta

[Larrissa]

iwantmydinner!hurryupmother,sohungry.

my stepdad nearly hit the crankdealer

oh yeah, most of you dont know that story.

[gwensmom]

Um, Lilac, when I made paper it said not to let the pulp go down your drain because it will clog it all up.

You may want to use some drain cleaner as a precaution.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

[Larrissa]

i have never and will never impersonate celion dion

but thats a mighty funny picture

my sweater is itchy

[Skilyne]

I'm SO TIRED...off to bed.

I am hoping that I sleep well tonight and don't have too much trouble dragging myself out of bed in the morning.

However, I am not holding my breath on that...I am not fond of crawling out of my nice warm and comfy bed at 6:00 just to go to work.

I am having the same feeling.
I have set my alarm to 6:12 in order to squeeze out every last minute.
considering its almost 12:00 I have about 6 hours and 12 miniutes to sleep if I conk out right now.

[oreogrl1]

ok, so now it's 7:57 am and I'm at school.
I got about 5 hours of sleep last night.
Now i'm filling out an application for student council... would you vote me a class president?

[Larrissa]

woke up at 5 and made the mistake of looking at the clock, thus im up

work at 9

ow.ow.ow. [im gonna have to do something abot that.]

Thanks Gwensmom. All I need is more plumbing problems in this old house!

I'll buy some Drano on my way home from work tonight.

I have a bunch of stuff to get done today, but not really concerned because I kow I'm gooooooooood! :lol:

[gwensmom]

It's only 8:30 and I have already made Chicken Divan for dinner tonight. It tastes great and will go on the list of casseroles to sell. It has cheese and white wine sauce :drool:

I am feeling so unmotivated that I wonder if I am mildly depressed.

I guess I had better find out and do something about it before it gets worse. My body is falling apart, so I need to keep my mind healthy at least.

[Larrissa]

i need to learn how to manage life

before i had so little to do in such a long time span

and now its not like that and im not adjusted

[Larrissa]

this terrible habit of waiting until the very last second before preparing for work probably aint good

it makes me a little grouchy

mpurr makes a nice postcard

[Larrissa]

SHUT

UP

ERIC

[cindi1023]

10:42 am - I hate that my office is so broke they can't hire someone to come in and fix our server problems. It takes 10 times as long to do *anything* with no server.

I have about a bizillion things to finish before I go on vacation.

Only 7 more work days (after today), and I'm gone for 10 days straight! :D

[cindi1023]

Where are all of these new area codes coming from?

Why is it necessary for every person on the planet to have a cell phone?

I'd give mine up in a heartbeat -- I hate being accessable *everywhere.*


******sorry.... stream of conciousness rant.******* :ph34r:

[zanna]

i've decided to skip philosophy this morning.

my tummy hurts.

i want to be productive.

[Curlita]

I admire everyone who saw the pic of Lilac's pulp wad and thought of creative constructive things to do with it.

My first impulse would be to get out a trash bag and load it all up. Lilac, you have my sympathies.

Hubby and I went out for anniversary dinner last night and I was so excited that I could stuff myself into a pair of pantyhose that I didn't stop to consider what the ramifications would be for my itchy stretch marks. :'(

[bluecrayon]

the challenge is to be amusing here

which I find hard to be

but which challenges me!!!!

[cindi1023]

I'm feeling rather nauseous this afternoon.

Probably because of too much -ine.

Not sure if it's nicot- or caffe-.

[Skilyne]

Work sucked today.

I hope it doesn't suck tommorow, because tommorow is Friday and on principle alone...Fridays just shouldn't suck.

I am in a mixed sort of a mood...half and half.

[trinitypowers]

Hmm.

I am having a quite the complex trying to draw this faery.

Very curious.

[oreogrl1]

Today on the bus home, a very rude woman made a comment to my friend.
She said, "don't step on my nine west pumps, they cost more than your whole outfit."
Obviously she has no clue about shoes, as I would be willing to bet that my friend's shoes cost 4 times the cost of her nine wests. ( which I think by the way is a huge waste of money)

Going home in 10 minutes, thank the good lord above.

I've had it with these people today.

Too much bitching, complaining, criticizing, gossiping and whatnot for one day.l

[Christine_0701]

i had a long conversation last night with someone i haven't talked to in almost a year

oddly, it was as if we'd spoken every day in that time

isn't it great when things like that happen?

[oreogrl1]

I'm wondering how my thinking for christine worked out...
I'm going nutz today... Velma knows about half of it.
I took a picture of my shoes, but I have to upload it yet.

[Christine_0701]

your thinking was great, because i didn't have to do it :P

tomorrow i get to go grocery shopping...how fun

i also get to pick up my tickets to go home for thanksgiving :D

[Helquin]

I went to school with a girl named "Sienna." Or was it "Sierra"? :huh:

I think Lilac hit all the reasons I am so glad not to work in an office environment any more. <_<

I had to go all apeshit on the last group of people I worked with. :lol:

[Helquin]

I spelled out BlueCrayon's name with curly fries at lunch today. :lol:

I was in nearby Lancaster, Ohio, and visited the Decorative Arts Museum there. Not much of a "museum" but damn! what a beautiful old mansion. A whole neighborhood of fabulous architecture, actually... :)

Someone around here is going to get a surprise soon! :ph34r:

[Larrissa]

i got a surprise today - from cheekilyyours! its quite neat and includes the phrenhead guy :D

sotiredidontevenknowwhyimoinlineinsteadofsleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeping

i burned the shit out of SEVENTY TWO cookies today. yes, thats 72. a lot of cookies. and i gave a homeless man a sandwich on the way home. "hello sir, i have a strange question for you." "alright" "would you like a free sandwich cold cut trio with lettuce and tomato?" "well thank you very much" its a long story how i came about 5 extra unpaid for sandwiches

[Larrissa]

i smelled burning cookies and had a very serious thought

maybe i should be on ADD medication

that is all

[Larrissa]

oh and assboy was out riding his bike and got hit by a car, that is all the current info. hes in the hospital.

i have a very large, the largest i have ever had in my life, sum of money in the form of a small pile of uncashed checks. im gonna have to give up my morals against banks and get an account.

but first i need my ID which has been on my to do list for months. i dont understand how people go about life and get so much SHIT done everyday.

if i wasnt so damned lazy i would make a little log of how much time i spent on various things. for research purposes. what better to pay attention to than my own life?

i sure did lodge that paranoia deep down into a spot not easily accessible. im hoping all goes well for you miss shoes. really.

[Helquin]

Oy -- medication!

I don't know who "assboy" is, but I feel that perhaps I should. :huh:

I really can't imagine what's left for your LJ, Larrissa! :P

[Helquin]

Keeping logs is great! I've done a couple of year-long projects that involved keeping track of some specific aspect of my life.

The sex one was the weirdest. I was just bursting to share the results with someone, but it made for awkward conversation. :lol:

I gotta say: I was a real charmer today. :rolleyes: I don't usually enjoy "small talk" at all, but I chatted up 5 different people over the course of the day.

[siafu]

yesterday, i took a nap

i dreamed that helquin and i were marbleizing paint and putting it on stuff

now i have to go look for a writing sample

[Helquin]

Boy, I'm running into a lot of coinkydinks in here tonight. :huh:

I was just looking at a book about marbleizing this afternoon, when I was at the Decorative Arts Museum.

I tried to marbleize paper about 15 years ago, but just made a big mess. :lol:

[Skilyne]

Not much going on here. I bought some Oreos and now I am eating them.

I took a nap after work. I needed it after the day I had.

Now I've got a candle lit and the window open...and the cool fresh breeze and glow of the candle are so relaxing and peaceful.

[Helquin]

:lol:

I'd like to start a scholarship fund so that generic barbies can have a decent typing education. :D

I'm starting to realize that I'm a liberal talk-radio junkie. :rolleyes:

[Curlita]

Two more days of work left. Sometimes it seems like I'm going to slip out of here without a hitch and other times I feel like I'm going to have to flee with people hanging on to my ankles.

I responded to all the e-mail in my mail box today and I really expected to get e-mail from someone back. Hmph.

I got my hair cut almost two weeks ago, but yesterday and today I had bad hair days. What gives?

[Curlita]

I wish I were eating Oreos with Erica!

How does one marbleize paper?

Maybe I will work on a craft project tonight. In between bouts of frantically itching my tummy.

[oreogrl1]

I love hard pizza crust.
surprisingly I don't much like pizza.
I'm anxiously awaiting E.R..

[cindi1023]

lists, lists, and more lists

I can't decide whether I do better making a list of what I need to back for vacation, or just throwing everything in the suitcase at the last minute. Which way do I forget less stuff?

tons still left to do before bon voyage!

[oreogrl1]

Oreos :drool:
I can hardly believe I just slept for 2 hours.
Oh, yeah I'm glad my thinking worked out for christine :)

[Christine_0701]

debbie's mom weighs less than her

and debbie weighs less than me

now i feel really really fat

[ebandit]

My attempt at marblizing paper was also a big flop.

Some days are just BAD HAIR DAYS -today was for me also

Liberal Barbies obviously type in the language of Franistan.

[kamoke]

*phat

I don't get bad hair days.

and, I'm off for 8 days apparently

[Helquin]

I thought Survivor was a hoot tonight. Heterosexual men are so funny about touching each other. :lol:

I had Oreos tonight too! With goat's milk! :)

I'm actually feeling tired for a change... I may go to bed soon.

I can't believe there's not a sleepy emoticon. :huh:

[kamoke]

thats strange, it seems like oreos are the thing to have this evening

I have 8 days off work, so I'm thinking I'll hitchhike out to st. johns and hike around there and find something to do

People at work are so upset that I'm leaving.. I laughed in a lot of faces

[Christine_0701]

when i went accross canada, in NS and NB, ppl would ask where we were from, we'd say "Fort St John" "oh, St. John's? That's not that far" "no, FORT St John, it's in BC" it was pretty funny

i also dressed up as anne on PEI

i saw a goat eating cheese on a boulder at Mr. Rushmore (don't ask)

[Helquin]

Kamoke has put a human face on the people at my local WalMart.

Ew: something stinky coming up from my basement floor drains.

I got the Oreos because of this thread! A lot of people were talking about them last week, too.

LoL so did I, One of the guys seemed a little more comfortable.
I thought the wispering while hugging was a bit odd :)
How about when the females found the maggots?

[Helquin]

I hardly ever look in the cookie aisle at the supermarket. I was surprised to find that there are now several kinds of Oreos. I almost tried the "inside out" variety (white cookies with chocolate creme).

Gee, I guess that's 3 facts right there. :huh:

Oh man -- when she ate the maggots I got a little squeamish!

[oreogrl1]

the uh-oh oreos are so yummy.
My fav. of all time is still doublestuff.
One time I got a bag full of oreo crumbs in the mail. LoL

Bonus: The maggots were disgusting!

[Christine_0701]

I haven't had oreo's in a long time

i have, however, had wagon wheels in the last week

the inside out oreo is how we conduct workshopping in my creative non-fiction class (start with what worked for the story, move into what didn't work, then end with what worked)

[Helquin]

I'm sure the "whispering-while-hugging" scene will make the clips episode at the end of the season! :lol:

I was worried that those "uh-oh" Oreos would have that awful kind of white cookie that my grandma used to buy.

I'm not really a big cookie fan but I need to gain about 20 pounds before winter gets here...

[gwensmom]

Eek too much info!

[Skilyne]

I am glad tommorow is Friday.

I am trying to convince someone of something.

I'm not sure how far I'll get.

My 6,969th post was: " :lol: "

I can't believe tomorrow is Friday already. This whole month is just flying by.... :blink:

[Christine_0701]

today is my friday

tuesday is my friday too :blink:

if that makes sense to you, explain it to me

[oreogrl1]

skilyne, I'm sure you can be convincing if ya want to.
Did anyone else wonder if rupert was going to be in this survivor as well?
I dunno why I thought that, maybe because he was the spokesperson?

[oreogrl1]

I'm desprately trying to figure out a way to get out of going to school tommrow.
I told a friend this and her response was"but you're so smart".
Just because I'm smart doesn't mean I like school.

[Helquin]

When I was in high school, I rubbed dark eyeshadow all around my eyes one day and slouched into the principal's office saying that I didn't feel well. I got sent home to get some rest. :lol:

Now that I'm an adult it seems unlikely that anyone in the office actually bought that charade. :D

I didn't like high school precisely because I am smart. Gak -- what a robot factory!

Maybe that's what it is. I'll just tell my mom I'm too smart to go to school.
She'll probably flick me in the forehead and tell me to get a move on <_<

[Christine_0701]

the joys of being in college, you can skip class whenever you want

granted, part of your participation mark is attending

and you'll probably miss something very important <_<

[oreogrl1]

At least in college you might have a chance to get a semidecent schedule.
I have to wake up at like 5:30
This is seriously cutting into my Partay-ing time. :)

My mom too! :lol: She would have gone ballistic if she knew I had skipped school.

College is a real challenge after dreary old high school. Or at least that's the way it was back in my day...

I saw some kid -- I mean a really young kid -- trudging home from school today with what must have been 50 pounds of books in his bag. I don't remember having that kind of homework till my teens. :blink:

[picasso]

not a good day today.

doctor on monday

vet appointments on saturday

[Christine_0701]

yeah, college is tough

but my program isn't too bad...i just have LOADS of writing

[kamoke]

I think I'll just go to school to pass in my assignment thats due monday.. and have a chat with ole Ronny... level four is a joke :lol:

I might have a floor to sleep on tomorrow night, which is always good

Lately the internet seems to be boring me..

[oreogrl1]

even a 600, an 800, a 1000 word creative non-fiction piece isn't that bad

combine them into one semester's worth, plus another course, PLUS reading....it's alot :P

[oreogrl1]

yeah, I love to write...
But that would burn me out.
I have to seriously be into something to be able to write... but it will be worth it!

[bluecrayon]

I am packing 2 of things for my journey to there -- 2 cups, 2 plates, 2 pillows, 2 sets of knives, forks and spoons, 2 saucepans, 2 bowls...

soon I will be packing the things I need only 1 of -- like futon, radio, laptop, heart...

I am trying to maneuver around the basic 3 of this relationship which is maybe a dance for numbers numbers...

[Christine_0701]

yeah, it is tiring after a while

but next year, i only need like, 6 more writing courses

then i'm gonna take some sciences and maths so i can get into the education program :D

[oreogrl1]

I'm gonna have such long classes in college!
I want to double major
Art and Psych

[Christine_0701]

I double majored, oreogrl, Environmental Engineering and Gelology.

It's not too bad...you just need to stay focused.

You can do it!

[bluecrayon]

I love 3 random facts because i can sneak in between the cracks and reveal all kinds of things and often remain invisible...

It is cheaper than therapy...

I am going to Portland.

[oreogrl1]

Thanks for the encouragement!
I just remembered that I wanted to say that like a week ago I saw Christina Aguleria!
She was doing some documentary for mtv

[Lilac]

You never sneak by me, Blue.

I was wondering where you were going.

Maine or Oregon?

[bluecrayon]

:D see what i mean?

total anonymity.

in a crowded world.

[bluecrayon]

except for you, Lilac!

Oregon.

only 800 miles away, but maybe another lifetime removed.

[kamoke]

port. land.
ship. fart..

wow, cb, hello

anonimity doesn't exist

or does it! DAHN DAHN DAAAAHHN

i don't make sense in real life, or on the internet

and soon enough I won't be making any cents either! yippie! yahoo! wahoie!

[oreogrl1]

Blue... I will miss your "anonymity"
Someone is always watching
always :)

i've ate only toast all day and oreos all night

I'm in denial of my apparent eating disorder

the internet blooowwwws and i can't chain for shit anymore

That very one, Lilac.

Truth be told, I didn't like him much.

He lived inside the world of idolatry and could not relate beyond it...

Lacing up my shoes and buttoning my sweater...

Hugging Kamoke and Lilac and oreogirl and Christine and missing helquin...

I will be spinning around tomorrow... :)

[kamoke]

:lol: i stayed up 'til nearly 3:30 doing an assignment, but I still never ended up going to school to pass it in

the doctors office just called to tell me off :lol: Apparently the fax they received was 28 pages long, and they only needed the last four pages.
and wow, $40 for a medical form.. give me a break

Expresspost is a joke, 1-2 days my arse

[gwensmom]

Oreogrrl, don't waste your time reading Flowers in the Attic. Or any other books by VC Andrews or anyone writing in that name. I found them to be unrealistic and just dumb.

Gwen's school dismisses at 11:30 today. I was dreading it but now I am kind of looking forward to getting some little things done around the house.

The Mid-South Fair opens today :yay: I can't wait to go see the creative arts displays. And the pretty chickens in the livestock exhibit.

[Larrissa]

i read every post in here

except things having to do with palllickticks

its alot to keep track of, and i cant do it

:)

[Larrissa]

cold here, means coldcoldcold in the garage - at least that means maybe the spiders wont be aorund anymore

today i plan on going on a super excursion and try to realize i have THREE WEEKS to get my shit together. okay. 3 weeks. its not just some strange abstract idea, im moving in 3 weeks and must get ready. my god, only three weeks. i have to call her and see whats up. i have to tell my boss im quitting. ack!

i went to sleep so early last night and finally got a list done

[Larrissa]

ummm, thats not very long and i have sooo much to do

i finally called the hospital the other day like i had needed to for 3 months.

i reeeally hope i somehow grow as a person all sudden like to be able to fit the situation

3 weeks to meet him?? :blink:

[Larrissa]

that helped alot but i should not do it again for so many reasons i cant be bothered to look at them all

bus to boulder then walk to the mountain park

i got to remember the camera

[thunderstorm_19]

1 i don't post in here enough anymore

2 as i posted in member matters, my gran died on tuesday morning

I wish I could think of something political to say just so Larrissa wouldn't read it. :P

I want to post in chibibluebird's "Art: What Is It" thread -- but answering those questions is like writing a doctoral thesis! :lol:

I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother's death, Alison. :( Keeping you in my thoughts...

[siafu]

larrissa, do you have an eyelet setter?

ii just spent a long ass time looking for my glasses

because i can't SEE without them

[Larrissa]

<_< approaching 7000 posts

:unsure: approaching a new life

:rolleyes: always finding it silly

[siafu]

i am all nervous that people at da kine place are talking about me

so what, right? maybe i'll get the big prize

which would require pretty much keeping secrets <_<

[Larrissa]

i am in no possession of an eyelet setter

my arts.crafts supplies consist of whats aquired by luck

i wish you a good and super day miss theresa :D

[Larrissa]

argh! its not fair that people should have to be *secretive*! :angry:

im getting a raise at the beginning of the month

must continue getting ready now

:wave:

[Christine_0701]

I have an eyelet setter

it doesn't seem to work too well :P

that has nothing to do with the person operating it :lol:

[Larrissa]

was sucked into a vortex and lost ten minutews

i have to hurry up

11:06 is the set time

[Helquin]

Tomorrow I shop for shrubbery.

It seems an odd destination, considering that detour I took in 1981...

Oh please please don't let me end up in a recliner eating Cheetos and watching Matlock.

[Larrissa]

hahahaha, matlock.

that is an excellent post to leave by

see you all later

[stale_laughter]

i'm using the computers in my school's library

the space bar squeaks everytime i touch it

my gum is stale

[Helquin]

For some reason I feel the need to clarify:

I don't own a recliner
I don't eat Cheetos
I have never seen Matlock

:lol:

[Christine_0701]

today i have to go pick up my criminal record check

because i have a job taking notes for a girl in my class

why do you need a criminal record check to take notes???

[cindi1023]

I was accussed of being a stalker once.

It was totally untrue.

So to get even, I started making obnoxious statements to other people (while he was in earshot) about needing ladders and night goggles, etc.. Everyone thought he was a real ass after that!

:evil:

[cindi1023]

I have seen Matlock.

My boss would love to be Matlock.

He has a pale blue suit that he likes to wear with a bow tie. It's laughable, really.

[cindi1023]

mmmm.... french fries!


so much for the diet!

Get one that's nice but not too expensive.

Oh please please don't let me end up in a recliner eating Cheetos and watching Matlock.I love Cheetos. If you ever get to this point call me and I will come over and eat them with you. I can take or leave Matlock, however.

I am once again a tiny bit hopeful that we can get a substantial amount of assistance from the state for Gwen. There will be a lot of paperwork, but I will do it- bring it on!

I was gonna wait till October because I don't feel like doing yardwork at all right now. :rolleyes:

God in heaven I am sick to death of some of these bitchy, moody, pissy, gossipy assheads I work with.

I want to go home and pretend that humanity doesnt even exist...except for you guys, of course.

I slept through my lunch hour, with my head on my desk. I'm getting sick, I just know it. I havent eaten all day.

I had a really good day at work today.

However, I am also really sexually frustrated.

I'm sure none of you actually cared to know that...but it's true.

[Skilyne]

What am I going to DO with myself this weekend???!!!

Hormone surges suck.

But at least I'm in a good mood.

[Lilac]

I'm leaving work early today because I'm not feeling good.

I want to sleep and I'm no good here.

So, Goodbye...until I get home.

[Skilyne]

I hope you get to feeling better Lilac!!!

I'm trying to motivate myself to go take care of some chores I should do.

But after a full week of work, my body wants to just lay here.

[nymphette]

it is next to impossible to find any recipes for tube feeding on the internet!!!!!!!! i have found exactly ONE site with a recipe for making your own formula for tube feeding!!!

i am getting very frustrated!!! we can't afford to buy harriosn's formula and there is NO COVERAGE in this province for it!!! so i want to make formula - well, blended REAL food - for him... but i am not able to fmind anything to help!!! :(

if anyone has or knows of someone who has a book on it, please please PLEASE let me know and i am willing to buy it from them!!!! or if anyone knows of a website (which i just can't seem to find when i do an internet search!!!) with recipes (with all nutritional values!!!) for feeding by gastrostomy tube....

i'll send you my second born son.... course, then i won't need the recipes.... <_<

[oreogrl1]

I have the biggest headache from running the mile.
I am definately not built to be a runner.
I'm a swimmer/volleyball player/marksman/scholar...lets just leave it at that okay!

[Skilyne]

http://www.nutritioncare.org

Try the above link Nymphette. It has a lot of sites pertaining to gastro-nutrition. I know my Mom used some of these sites for me when I was sick...perhaps one of them can help you.

I hope so!

[Skilyne]

When you get to the site, you are going to want to click on "Professional Resources" and then from there, choose "Nutrition related links"

I also think that some of the companies will work with clients who can't afford the formula, but need it. I know in the US that is the case.

I believe that we recieved some of my TPN formula that way.

[siafu]

i just went and got myself a super crap job

it pays american money though

and it's about getting young people to vote. that part is cool.

[siafu]

nymphette, what kind of formula do you need?

i read too many books at once. the characters start crosstalking in my head.

my head hurts

[tanagee]

I have 2 hours and 16 minutes to pay my Water & Power bill OR ELSE! But since I am paying it online I don't think there will be a problem...I hope.

I have decided that I no longer need to pay for my diaper service, the training pants they supply are super huge on my svelte kid and she has been waking up dry so I can just let her wear disposable training pants to bed, so that will save me $15.00 per week vs the $7.99 I paid for a package of 10 pairs of panties.

There is a crew of men cleaning up the huge fire hazzard behind my house that we have been ordered by the fire department to get rid of...my neighbor is paying for it and he has only asked for us to chip in 25% ($100.00) so that is really cool. Next we have to figure out where to get the $$.

Wow, those are some wordy facts...

[nymphette]

siafu: the formula he needs is called 'peptamen jr.'... he was supposed to be on pediasure- which we could get for the wonderful cut rate of cost plus 10% (which would still be about 35 bucks a case, which would last us for about 5 days!!!!!!!! :o :ph34r: :'( ) but his ige blood tests showed a milk allergy that developed from the donor organ!!! so he was tried on a couple of other special formulas and the peptamen jr is the one they kept him on....

bonus though- he hasn't had those awful lumpy hives since changing formula.... :P so that is nice... poor little lumpy baby he was.....

and skilyne- i bookmrked that site!! i ended up today going through the canada food guide and finding out portions per food group daily, plus calculating his amount of fluid/kg daily, plus protein/kg, plus complete caloric intake... and made up two recipes of my own...

yes, now i am supermom....

though i used a calculator to do everything since i suck at math.... and i am still going to get his dietician to check them out-just in case.. i am sure she'll think i am a freak feeding him "3/4 cup brown rice, 1/2 cup nvy beans, 1 cup soy milk, 1 cup apple juice, 1/2 cup cooked fruit, 3/4 cup cooked veggies, water to make 1150 mls" .......... pureed...... <_< blech!!! i'll tell you, it smells terrible, but i guess it would help if i had regular soy milk and not vanilla flavored...

:eek: hey, gimme a break... it's not like he's actually going to taste it!!!! :P

[nymphette]

i just saw erica's baby belly picture in the pic thread!!! i am so jealous!!! although i know in another couple months i'll be out that far too!!! i just realized i am almost 6 months pregnant now- i popped out from 'normal' (for me, ha ha) to rather pregnant looking at around the 4 1/2-5 month mark... from one week with jodi out in edmonton looking normal to the next weekend with chris there telling me 'i didn't want to say anything, but you can really tell'.... :blink: i asked him if he thought i'd be offended if he told me i look pregnant.... :P men....

you can see my tummy moving when baby kicks or has hiccups!!! julian loves it.... :wub:

harrison doesn't give a $hit though..... <_< i think he knows he's going to be usurped as 'baby'..... and he's trouble enough as it is, always picking on julian!!!! :rofl:

[tanagee]

Robyn: how long is he going to need the g-tube?

Not that I have anything to contribute to the conversation, I was just wondering.

:hug:

[nymphette]

until he eats 100% of his daily required nutrition by mouth... :( i think he'll do it- he's come so far since the tx, further than we ever though he could, by how things were going.... but he's got a long way to go....

the speech pathologist he saw was amazed t his progress after one week!!! (post tx)

he went from (pre tx) gagging on everything, not being able to eat purees or solids, anything really, or even drink water, to shoving popcorn (minus the kernels) into his mouth 3-4 at a time, gnawing on green beans, eating pureed sweet potatoes, carrots, etc!!! and he'll try almost anything too...

on the almost anything note- he ate a sticker last week.... :o he started gagging on something and i figured he picked something up off the floor and tried to eat it... a few seconds later, he was coughing/choking on it.... he was getting oxygen, but couldn't dislodge it... i was ready to call 911 when he started to calm down.. but he was breathing kind of funny, short breaths, so i could tell it was still in there... so i called my mom to see what she thought and he was coughing on it again, and crying... and so i tried to give him some water, but it didn't do anything... and he calmed down again... then he was sitting in his high chair and started again, but i saw something in his mouth and quickly stuck my finger in and grabbed it... it was a small metallic holographic sticker of a race car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o

which ticked me off... he won't EAT eat, but he'll eat a sticker......<_<

[gwensmom]

What a concept- creating recipes that don't have to taste good!

OMG that peptamen stuff isn't cheap. How many cans does he use per day?

Gwensdad and I are going to the fair tonight!

[Skilyne]

I went to the bookstore and bought a blank book that I am going to alter with things about NYC and tips on living there that I have been collecting.

I am actually looking forward to the meeting at the Marine Corps Reserve Center tommorow.

My brother is coming home so soon now!!! I'm excited, but in a way nervous...it's been so long that he has been away and being in war clearly changes a person.

[WonkyWalkingShoe]

It was 81 degrees farenheit here today.

It was nice and summery.

I laugh at cold.... hahaha.

[Lilac]

I got "The Young Ones" DVD set today and I'm going to go now and watch the whole thing!

I can't wait. I havent seen my beloved Neil for over a decade!

Might be back online later!

[Skilyne]

I am so tired.

I don't want to go to sleep just yet...it is only 8:22 and it seems a waste to go to sleep so early on a Friday night.

I'm quite relaxed and feeling good right now though...so I can't complain.

[oreogrl1]

that medicine got rid ofthe "there's a hole in my head feelng"
Made me uber tired.
I need to make an Altered book.

[Larrissa]

i had a simply wonderful day

:ph34r: that came out all wrong

spent seven.5 hours out of the house, bused to boulder and wandered. so much happened. im tired now and am going to eat dinner.

[Helquin]

Babies who are breastfed don't poop as much as babies who are bottle-fed. :huh:

I'm feeling very techno-incompetent tonight... I thought this scanner would make my life a fabulous heaven of perpetual delight. <_<

Kids today :lol:

Oh boy. Wacky fun.

[gwensmom]

I'm back from the fair and will post pics in the today thread.

My sister's first quilt won a blue ribbon and she does not even know that I entered it! Hehe.

I ate a pronto pup, pepperoni pizza, ice cream and ....a zantac when we got home.

We went on a roller coaster that went upside down three times.

[Helquin]

I just realized how weird it is that so much of the music I learned growing up involved some variation on the theme of being bathed in blood.

The radio station just played a little clip from some "country" gospel song. :lol:

There should probably be a minimum reading comprehension level for using the self-checkout lane at the supermarket. <_<

Impatience. Yeah.

[Helquin]

Wow: congratulations to GwensAunt for the blue ribbon!

:lol: I can't remember the last time I heard 'em called "pronto pups"

Good memories. :) And being upside-down. :)

[oreogrl1]

the headache is coming back.
Anyone got something stronger...
ah well, its getting to be about that time.

You mean stuff in church like Blessed Assurance or did you grow up on some kind of hardcore metal?

[Lilac]

I was kind of dissapointed with my reintroduction to The Young Ones.

They're not as funny as I used to remember them...of course, that could be because I was usually stoned when I watched them back then. :ph34r:

Sometimes it sucks to be a responsible adult.

[oreogrl1]

lol
Sounds like my friends watching "how high"
God that movie is dumb

[Helquin]

:rofl: "My Mother the Hair Band Groupie"

Nah, my religious education was entrusted to my thundermentalist grandparents... some vaguely Pentecostal splinter sect

I better hush before I offend someone. :unsure:

Sounds like we had similar religous upbringing, Helquin.

Mine was a brimstone and hellfire baptist grandmother.

To this day, she still feels she has to inform me that "I'm going to hell."

[oreogrl1]

Sometimes I wish I could get away from here.
Drama
Is Cheap

[Helquin]

Oh, those Baptists! Plenty of them around here, too.

I was raised in the Church of Christ in Christian Union, but my holy-roller grandmother was originally from the Church of God denomination (her father was a minister).

One good thing was that our church services were quite dramatic -- lots of yelling and if the weather was nice someone might even get "filled with the Spirit" and run around the outside of the church once or twice. :lol:

I'm cracking up just imaging that happening! :rofl:

And I thought Baptists were dramatic.

Compared to that, they're quite reserved!

[oreogrl1]

:rofl:
I would definately be going to hell!
I would be laughing and pointing and rolling around on the ground.
