[Skilyne]

It seems a lot later than 7:20 here! I'm not used to it getting dark so early...it's throwing me off.

Hugs to CB...and all others who may be needing them.

1. The spider I've been trying to kill since this morning has escaped under my chair and is probably going to kill me tonight.


2. I just drank a pot of tea, it doesn't matter if I'm up all night cause that's what it's going to take to get ready for tomorrow.


3. I found a marine map with a town I used to live in listed on it, and I've been thinkin about that place and what it's like now, all day.

[gwensmom]

Family relationships suck sometimes. When a family member seriously pisses you off you can't just wash your hands of them and be done with it.

Gwensdad tried to put a new mechanism in the toilet and ended up breaking the tank. He got a new one but it doesn't fit on the toilet exactly and wobbles a little.

Gwen has to go to the hospital tomorrow for an endoscope. It's not a horrible procedure but it still makes me nervous. She can't eat all morning so we are keeping her up late tonight in hopes that she will sleep really late.

[Larrissa]

[Lorrell]

1. I just discovered what the PIP button is for.


2. Bartow is still a segregated community. It's so Deep South it's scary, unless your a blonde.

3. I can't decide....on top of the table or underneath it? Hmmmm?

[Larrissa]

me too. money's tight at the best of times. let alone after paying out the deductible (when we do it) and paying my sister for the carseat (when we do it) and we're still short a carseat and stroller that we have to buy and chri's brand new star wars computer game his brother bought him was in the car too.... not that i mind that THAT is missing, but..... stil......

[Lorrell]

Nyphette, I hate car thieves, hijackers, etc. Twice I had my car stolen, once they came in my house at night and toke the keys right out of the pocket of my jeans that were next to my bed. They found my car parked and out of gas about six weeks later, 2 miles away from my house.


The second time it happened I was about to get in it and this guy snatched the keys right out of my hand, pushed me to the ground and jumped in, started the car up and took off in it. The cops spotted the carfloating in the lake and called my mother who assumed I was dead...My purse was locked in the trunk of the car unknown to the thief and when I went to retieve it from the impound they wanted to charge me (more than the car was worth) for getting it out of the lake and I had to get a note from a detective before they would let me get my purse out of the trunk.


Did you leave the keys in it....or what?

[bluecrayon]

I locked the keys in my car the other day at the cooperative grocery store I go to.

I told the guy at the desk and he came out with a bunch of tools and tried to open the door.

A guy who had been watching this for a while came over, took a tool out of the bag and popped the lock on the driver's side door in less than a minute...


and I, myself, have pried off the club when I lost the key and I did it in under 20 minutes.

so if someone wants to take something from you, it's easy.

[Helquin]

I am so out of the loop. What letter? What's going on with Larrissa's opinion? :huh:

It's really windy here... things keep bumping in the night.

I can honestly say I've made nothing but crap all week and I spent all day today making another piece of crap.

It's kind of discouraging. :mellow:

[gwensmom]

I am much too pissed off to know what to do yet. It will be a long time before i do anything.

I went to the chat room tonight for the first time in forever! It was fun.

I have to go now. Gwensdad wants a back rub and I need one too.

[Larrissa]

just say "shut the hell up, larrissa. we are sick of hearing it."

i cant tell.

no one alive can frustrate or piss me off like i can. <_<

[bluecrayon]

I have no idea what's pissing off Gwensmom, but I'm sending a hug her way.

I have no idea what's pissing off Larrrissa, but ditto above.

Rant on both of you. You're among friends. ;)

[Lorrell]

I'm procrastinating switching to my winter wardrobe but I did put fannel sheets on the bed because it's only cold at night and there's nothing I want to sleep with.


My woody ATC is coming together


The Indians have come home at last, I heard the truck door slam. :wacko:

[hammerquill]

I'm not sick of hearing Larrissa, just occasionally mystified.

I'm also wondering what's pissed gwensmom off.

I just noticed where Larrissa is now from, and realized I should adjust my "From:" field, too.

[Larrissa]

i have problems with being flirtatious to boys when talking one on one. and it bugs the shit out of me. its alot like that other guy. who i want to drop but cant. why must reality toss situations out that are almost mocking of the past in the similiarities. la la. i need to stop contacting new people online and when i am contacted by new people i need to Just Say No. ARG.

people being obscene and asking for Things to make it better is also mucho sucky.

saying a long thing to one person and having them contact me and say a bunch more through AIM, and me get angry and rant at them, and then have the *entire* interaction reported to people WHO HAVE NOTHING TO WITH IT is extremely angsty. fuck her.

[Larrissa]

but hes all arty and smart.

and thats the story.

she has the power to delete my posts. shes abused this priviledge before.

how the holy hell is privulij spelled!?

Cuz you're still you, the one who was in those situations in the past.

But hey, maybe you can get it right the nth time. Practice makes perfect, right? :ph34r:

uh oh. Then I'm in trouble! :ph34r:

[Larrissa]

i would get all read and re-read-y about the conversation too, but damn if i didnt copy it and copy something else with the window closed. hence. there is no record but my thoughts. for a first hello/etc it was really really super. its got the whole location thing going for it again too. oh damn. and um i recommended nness. public place. ack! i should go to livejournal but im not.

if sexuality were a choice, i would be all gay. thank you. but alas, its not a choice.

among friends my ass! :lol: thats what the guests are here to protest.

[Larrissa]

she just quoted cartman, and i asked "did you just quote hammerquill?" oooops :lol: im only paying half attention to the real world and computer world.

i should go to bed or make stuff.

okay so i mumble angrily and curse and growl and grrr to myself when im upset. she kept asking if im okay :D

[bluecrayon]

It occurs to me that Hammerquill himself is an "arty smart guy" so who's he talking about?

If who we get to love was a choice, maybe we'd all be happier.

I should get on my bike and ride for a while, or the entire night, and think these things through.

And you think you've got problems. ;)

But Eve's arriving in seven and a half days, so it's mostly all okay.

[Lorrell]

1 I'm bending the rules but thats ok as long as I don' t break the mold.


2 I need a rack that turns around, like at the cleaners, inside my closet.


3. J has PROMISED LUNCH TOMORROW :)

[Larrissa]

i need to go get all unconscious, im tired, today was harsh. and awesome.

yeah. did i learn anything the last time? apparently not.

creeping toward 11pm and I have to get up at 6am

but I am restless and can't seem to shut down my brain

so here I am in the empty room once more making noise...

We have to take Gwen to the hospital this morning for tests :( . We can't feed her anything at all so we are sneaking around quietly trying not to wake her up so she will not be awake and hungry.

I hope that the doctor does not decide that she needs surgery :crossed: :crossed: :crossed:

A family member has pissed me off by writing me a nasty letter accusing me of things I never did. This person does not seem to be living in the same reality as the rest of us so there is really no way I can see to discuss anything rationally. Not that I want to right now. :angry: It's not the end of the world but it is just one more annoying thing to deal with at a time when Gwen is sick.

[gwensmom]

&$@#%* The neighbors burglar alarm is going off! It had better not wake Gwen up!

I check to see who is having a birthday every day. I wonder about the people whose names I do not recognize.

I said I was unravelling a cashmere sweater but I lied. It is really angora, lambswool and nylon. It is wicked soft whatever it is!

[namelessgirl]

My cats sit on the window sill behind the nearly transparent curtains and are all proud because they stupidly think we can't see them or something. It's really cute.

My to-do list is staring at me from the dry erase board. So far, all I have gotten done is "make pesto." It's such a delicious bright green. I can't wait for dinner tonight. Oh french bread with it would have been good. Bummer.

"Clean cat box." EEeeewwwwwwwwww.

I think I probably have close to 70 different kinds of tea.

Okay, time to get off my butt and start my day. RAWR!

[Lilac]

I havent informed my employers that I have mono. I really don't think they have to know, and I don't think I can spread this around unless I kiss or exchange bodily fluids with another person in the office (ewwwwww!) or cough without covering my mouth. Still...I'm feeling a little guilty being here.

I just can't afford to miss work. We're up againast unreal deadline as it is. In fact, I shoulnt even be online right now. I should feel more guilty about that than about coming to work with mono.

So...hugs to everyone who needs one today!

~ I spend a few days away from N'ness and come back to a poop stew! :blink: I wish, to all of you who are down on your luck (or sick, have been robbed, had a miscarriage, insulted, etc.), better days, better luck and happiness. I feel sad for my N'ness friends. :'(

~ Did that last fact even make any sense? I feel as if my brain has turned to marshmallow lately and I can't seem to make sense of anything.

~ This weekend I accomplished practically nothing. I challenge any of you to a procrastination competition...I'm quite sure I would win (if we actually found the motivation to "compete" that is).

[Larrissa]

poop stew indeed.

pesto is awesomely delicious.

im still sewing purses. they turn out weird.

Ah damn. I posted that twice!

[tanagee]

Just got back from the Lab, where I had to have blood drawn for a completely useless test, and I *know* the doctor thinks so too.

Need to call said dr's office and give them an update. I also need to ask them when and where to get my RhoGam shot.

I went to the store last night to pick-up some bread and it was too cold in the store to pick out some ice cream to enhale in one sitting. Which is a good thing because dispite how it makes me feel in the moment...Ben & Jerry are NOT my friends.

working isnt SO bad. but GETTING a job is harsh.

[velma]

Snow! ack!

Lilac, here's a simple yummy recipe I found:

Asparagus-Cashew Pilaf

You'll need:
a bunch of asparagus
about 1/2 cup cashews
2 cups vegetable broth (I use Knorr's vegetable boullion plus 2 cups of water)
about 1/4 chopped onion
1 clove garlic, chopped
about 2 oz. spaghetti or vermicelli, uncooked, broken into 1-inch pieces
margerine--about 2 tablespoons
olive oil or other oil--about 1 tablespoon
1 cup white or brown rice (brown makes a chewier pilaf but takes longer)

Put the asparagus in a bowl with enough water to barely cover. Cook in the microwave for about 3-4 minutes. (You could also boil it for about that amount of time.) Drain, then chop into 2-inch pieces.

In a skillet, melt the butter with the oil. Put in the chopped onion and garlic. Add the spaghetti and rice. Saute until pasta is lightly browned.

Add vegetable broth, bring to boil, then turn down heat and simmer till rice is cooked--about 20 minutes for white rice, longer (1/2 hour or more) for brown. During the last 10 minutes of cooking, add the asparagus and cashews. Season to taste. (Note: you don't need much salt.)

I serve it with whole wheat pita and an orange veggie or some canned peaches. It's YUMMY! :)

[siafu]

i need to call in

can't

nice, this sponsabill crap

[velma]

ok, i'm done fooling around. must get down to business.

here i go...

hasta la vista, amigos y amigas!

[Lorrell]

1. The lunch was unbelievable---I thought I was on board a Chinese supertanker. I have never seen so much Sushi and Dim Sum, steamed fish, Wontons, teriyaki, hoisen, oyster sauce, Moo goo Gai etc.. etcc.. Now I have an Oriental Food hangover....they spent 3 hours.. saki saki etc.


2. And all that red satin on the walls and those cystal chandeliers, the only thing missing was a hookah and I would have sworn I was in an opium palace. :lol:


3. I'm glad I brought my own chopsticks because the silverware didn't look so good. :unsure:

[bluecrayon]

my recipe for pesto:
--1 cup tightly packed fresh basil leaves
--1 lg. clove garlic
--1 heaping teaspoon freshly grated Parmesan
--1 tablespoon freshly grated Romano
--1 teaspoon pine nuts (or sometimes I use walnuts)
--2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil (more or less, depending on how thick you want it)
--salt and lots of black pepper

Put everything, except the oil, in a food processor (or blender) and blend into a paste. Add the oil gradually, mixing constantly until sauce has reached your desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper.

easy!!!!

[Larrissa]

i should go get to business too

the cupboards are 90% covered in postcards, its entirely awesome

:ph34r: postcard jam. im so bad.

[Lorrell]

1. Oh my head, I'm in really bad shape now....


2. I need to avoid these kind of lunchs


3. All these great recipes have been posted and I won't want to eat anything for days and days.

They are opting for each other! This is why homosexuality can be a problem: it takes too many awesome men off the market for us girls!

Gwen did great going in but had a rough re-entry. Her throat hurts and she cried a lot until we got home and gave her something for it. She promptly passed out and is still sleeping.

The good news is that her teeth are looking good and there is no sign of damage to her esophagus, stomach or small intestine and they don't think she has reflux. They will wait for biopsy results to determine what to do. I am optimistic that surgery will not be called for.

[Larrissa]

okay so maybe im :evil:

I move into my new apartment on Dec. 2nd. :) I realised yesterday that I'd forgotten about getting insurance. Must look into that.

I'm thinking about how I'm going to paint my walls...

[Cuilanië]

Computers-for-rent in a caf¨¦ specialising in chocolate. Dangerous.

I bought a poppy this weekend and lost it today. Sigh.

And many hugs for those beset by reality... :(

I've been here for three hours already. :blink: Mostly reading the backlog of 3RFacts...

Time to go, have dinner, then head back out to my usual internet place when Reed's online...

Ouch. Hugs.

I wasn't supposed to work tomorrow, but turns out I will. We got more done today than we expected, so Thursday's task can be done sooner...

I need to figure out how I'm going to get my futon from my youngest brother's place to mine. Or risk having to sleep on the floor for a few days.

[bluecrayon]

It snowed in San Francisco about 10 years ago and the whole city shut down.

I am working on a grant which is why I am really dancing here.

It hasn't even been a week since the anti-Christ got reelected, but it already feels like a year.

[Zhenechka]

I kid. Those last seven pages weren't shite. Minor grammatical things, which I am going to fix NOW.

I no longer know how to use commas in English.

To work!

[ebandit]

I painted on a new hibiscus tonite...it doesn't look as good as the last one.

I am happy...I don't need a reason

Nov 11th is Veterans Day in the USA....talk nice to an old soldier!

[namelessgirl]

thai food for dinner was yummy!

i'm tired of stressing about bills.

tonight i should do a lot of things but mostly i want to go read and drink tea. hmm.

[bluecrayon]

domestic life is heck.

I am breaking loose am I not?

there is just here with a t on it... yikes.

[gwensmom]

Gwen is rallying :) She has both smiled, eaten something and swallowed without crying or flinching. She is awesome and I love her so much! :wub:

I'm not sure if she should go to school tomorrow. I might take her for the last three hours. I have a hair appointment then and my hair is looking really bad.

I made something for an lmao and like it so much I don't want to send it off! This is the first time this has happened to me.

[rockermom]

no matter where you go, there you are

i first heard this from a very fine movie called 'buckaroo bonzai'

i cannot reccomend the veiwing of this movie strongly enough.

[Cuilanië]

Hi again.

Sometime during my metro ride, I got very tired and motion sickness.

I'm looking forward to not sleeping on a mattress on the floor anymore, I think that's what's causing this constant tiredness...

[rockermom]

when getting motionsick on BART (our metro) i press the points
three fingers down from the middle of my wrists for ten minutes,
alternating sides.

it really does help.

mattresses on the floor don't.

[gwensmom]

I saw Buckaroo Banzai in Atlanta in the mid-80's. I couldn't wait to get out of there because I was with a hot date and didn't want to be sitting in a movie.

A few days ago I impaled my finger with a seam ripper. :o

Blue, when are you going there?

[Cuilanië]

There's a metro station in Montreal styled like one of the Art Deco metro stations of Paris. B)

I usually look out the window to combat motion sickness. But today it was made of tiredness and an ambient temperature that was too high...

I'm sort of hungry, but I have no readily available (read: "no preparation required") food at my friend's place. Sigh.

[hammerquill]

I didn't realize Rockermom was another Bay Area person.

As usual at this time of year I have plenty of good ideas for presents for my mother and scarcely any for my father.

The rest of the family is more of a collective problem to think about. Which may be even harder...

[Cuilanië]

I'm both more and less attached to my stuff than I thought. I can live without it without much trouble, but whenever I think "I'm in the mood to do X..." - I can't.

I almost forgot that I need a medical insurance for my two weeks in the US... I couldn't buy it with my plane ticket this time because I was moving out of France.

It's freezing outside, but the wind has slacked off, so it doesn't feel so cold. Smells like frost and snow. :)

[Zhenechka]

I'm throwing in the towel until tomorrow morning.

A hundred-fifty-word abstract has undone me.

Why can't the justification for my dissertation actually be, "Well, it's a graduation requirement! Why the hell else would I subject myself to this?!"

For the Doctor bit.

[Cuilanië]

Well, I'll be going soon...

Two more days of work, six more days of waiting...

And another sleepless night just before I leave. Heh.

[bluecrayon]

I am leaving next Monday.

I am fighting through a million obstacles.

wish me luck.

[Helquin]

Good luck to all travelers.

We were supposed to get a rare glimpse of the Northern Lights tonight, but it's overcast. Who schedules these things anyway? <_<

Date Guy called back. This could get annoying if it's going to be a regular thing...

[bluecrayon]

Come on, Helquin. Dance!

I am driving 800 miles to dance myself.

We will be dead soon enough.

[Helquin]

I'm not opposed to dancing, but I need a partner who can cha-cha :lol:

[Helquin]

I miss the political discussions in "Hot Topics & Current Events." :mellow:

I might have to go back to BeliefNet to cope with my withdrawal. :lol:

Yes: I really did get some LMAO stuff done tonight! I'm trying! Really!

[rockermom]

my husband says this all looks like horsecrap

my laundry is not folded.

i stll have halloween candy to eat

[Christine_0701]

i'm hungry

i hope someone comes online tonight

and yet i also don't

:lol: I used to tell my husband the same thing, when internet chat was just catching on in the early '90s.

"What in the heck are you doing on there 3 hours at a time?!"
"Those people sound like a bunch of nuts!"
"Everything is so confused & out of order!"

:lol:

I told my mom the next generation will be wearing personal computers like we wear hats or wristwatches... She's still afraid of her e-mail account. :lol:

[rockermom]

and you were right!

i predicted electric cars by the time i was 30
on a questionaire i filled out in second grade.,

it was dumb luck.

[Helquin]

My pocket has produced an unusual note on unfamiliar paper:

"L-Methionine (amino acid)"

Sometimes I wonder if my clothes might have a more interesting life than I do... :huh:

[rockermom]

are you depressed?

it's okay, it's only four years.

maybe we can get to be real good freinds with christine0701
and she will help us emigrate.

[Christine_0701]

haha last night vicki gave me a site

Marry and American (http://www.marryanamercian.ca)

I found it hilarious...but also kind of scary

[Christine_0701]

our PM has said that americans are more than welcome to move to Canada

they are not, however, considered refugees

my headache just won't go away!!!!!

[Helquin]

Well now the mystery is deeper! :lol:

So I Googled "L-Methionine" and it is for treatment of depression.

Now I've got to figure out where this weird paper came from! It's got a little picture of a tree on it -- and the word "tilibra" in a box. And five arrows arranged in a clockwise circle.

What a hoot.

[rockermom]

it's like a game of myst in your pants!

that sounds so dirty,,,heh heh heh.

headaches suck, i have headaches like migraianes, but seasonally, like allergies, altho they seem to be neither, just annoying.

[Christine_0701]

i don't think i get migraines, just really bad headaches

i'm kind of used to headaches tho, i've had them sooooo much

i try not to take tylenol unless they're REALLY bad...except for in grade 4, but that was an exception

[rockermom]

painkillers don't work on me.

i found this out while having a c-section.

it was a surprise.

[Christine_0701]

oh lovely time to find out ;)

if there's any chance i'll have a c-section, it'll have to be a scheduled...or else i'll die from the anaesthetic b/c it has to be made ahead of time

damn me and my multitude of medical problems

[Christine_0701]

cigarette smoke smells so sickening to me

especially when i have a headache

why must people smoke outside my window????

[Christine_0701]

today has been a long, uneventful day

i did get some stuff mailed, and bought a new board game

next monday is 50% @ value village

[rockermom]

do they have to make it up on the spot, or can they make it now and store
a batch for later, like banking your own blood?

dental work has been fun, too.

morphine makes me itch horribly, how bout you?

[bluecrayon]

I am tired.

He's yelling at me.

7 days seems like forever.

Your alternate personality is the less sanguine one, I guess.

The public library has a little bookshelf in each branch, where they sell books for 25 cents.

I bought a Calvino book there last weekend. Only problem is, when I looked inside I found it's a current library book, not a discard. They didn't notice this..... <_<

325208


I really don't know, the only time i've known about it is when I was going in for scheduled surgery, and they made it that morning, just before the surgery

Thankfully, that was how it was, so I could request extra gravol in it

I've never had morphine, but anaesthetic makes me VERY sick

[Christine_0701]

after my head surgery, I was throwing up for almost a full week afterwards...and not doing anything else, really

well, people liked this avatar better than cookie, and cookie had quit showing up, so i finally updated it

it's odd to me, now, to be seeing it

[rockermom]

are you a redhead?

it has supposedly been proven that redheads react badly
to pain and pain medication.

my hair is blue.

[Helquin]

My father's whole family are redheads, but I've never heard them complain about a particular sensitivity to pain or pain medications.

They're all a little kooky, though. :lol:

I was sure I had a 3rd random fact, but I'm starting to nod off and now I can't remember it...

[Christine_0701]

nope, not a redhead...although i do have natural reds in my hair

right now i have dyed red streaks in it

but i don't have much of a problem with pain medications, just anaesthetics and penicillin

[rockermom]

redheads!

my husband fooled me, i thought he was a readhead when i met him, my freinds were envious.

the avatar is your daughter, whom you quote in your signature file?

[Christine_0701]

no,no, i've no children, and there are none in the near future

my avatar is me

the quote is my "niece" and the boys are my nephews

[rockermom]

awe!

i have many 'nieces' but none without quotes.

i don't think my sibblings will spawn. but then, i thoiught the same about myself.

[Christine_0701]

well, she's not even really related to me

neither are my nephews, but they're closer

and yet they're not, because at least she's on earth

[Christine_0701]

this has been weighing on me alot lately

as has a certain somebody

bah. at least the semester is almost out

[rockermom]

no, neither are mine.

it sucks to lose people.

but i think we find them again.

[Christine_0701]

yes, i think we do too

and yes, it does suck to lose people, lord knows i've lost too many these past 3 years

in fact, the 5 i've lost these past 3 years is too many for a life time...even tho i know i'll lose more

[rockermom]

i'm writing my will.

i have to go on an airplane BY MYSELF in a few weeks.

the two things have become twined in my paranoid head.

[Christine_0701]

i'm waiting to see if he'll come online

i don't know why i'm wasting my time

visa has some WEIRD commercials

[rockermom]

i'm going to bed

really, i mean it.

i'm going to bed and you chat with him in a chatfull manner, you chatty cathy you.

[Larrissa]

what does a zebra have to do with anything?
im doing it again ...
it was fun last time. what the hell.

[Christine_0701]

goodnight!

i doubt he'll even come online

he never does when i expect him to <_<

[Larrissa]

its one am, and i have glue all over my fingers.

postcards/books made

-_- sleepy

[Death_Or_Aldona]

i don't know if i ever actually had anything to say

if i did, i've forgotten it now

i feel like someone was punching me in the chest while i was asleep

[Death_Or_Aldona]

hmmm...6:00am

sleep is weird. it visits once in a while but never seems to want to hang out very long.

i keep thinking of all these great ideas for parties. but, alas, i still know very few people in this town...

[namelessgirl]

Every morning I wake up in more pain than the day before. That's not any sort of metaphor. I don't know what my problem is but I'm falling apart. My knees hurt SOOOOO much. Arthritis at this age is weird.

I need to leave for school in like ten minutes but holy hell I don't want to. I have some sort of makeup test in my first class today. And a biology quiz. Oh yeah. Fun times.

Larrissa isn't up and damn her for that! Yeah you, missy! :P I need my morning round of angst and laughter and checking the To-Do Lists and shaking my finger at you and plus I want to see what you made last night!

[Larrissa]

uh oh. "of interest"

im awake and todays a long day and i shall get lots done yo.

i told you i would overuse it, now that i started im not sure i can stop.

i'ma redhead... and have no problems with pain meds and reactions.. except that i have used sooo much in the past that nothign works for me....

one of the side effects of morphine is the itching... if you have morphine in hopsital and get itchy, they will give you benadryl for it....

my ssiter had a bad reaction to anesthetic... my mom does too.... i'm up and about an hour after surgery.. my sister is a redhead, my mother is not... well, she is but it isn't her natrual color... :P

[namelessgirl]

you can't steal my "yo" beytoch! :P

school is b o r i n g

money makes me cry

[nymphette]

hello sarahkate!!!! i see you there!!! :wave:

i am trying to find out on the internet why harrison's tacrolimus says that it has to be refrigerated!!! this is the first rx of it we've had fille dsince we came home and none of the other bottles had to be kept in the fridge..... you'd think that it would be a consistent thing though, it's the same med... i just wonder if they compound it differently and whatever they use has to be kept cold??? weird.. and i cant' find anything..... :(

i have a cup of tea getting cold in the living room... i hope it's up where harrison can't spill it and julian cant' drink it..... :o that's all i need a sticky toddler covered with tea or a hyped up preschooler filled with caffeine!!!!!!!! :rolleyes:

[Larrissa]

who am i to blame for cramps??? :evil:

i was doing stuff and couldnt handle it anymore

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

[nymphette]

on my way to the ER.

i just changed harrison's diaper and he had black poop (a sign of old blood) and the wipes i used are leaking bright red out of it.... so i am freaking out and have to take him there...

send us good vibes everyone, please! i am trying to keep my calm but it isn't working.

[sarahkate]

~ :wave: Hello Robyn & Julian & Harrison & the little womb bean! :D

~ I am feeling guilty because I have been getting A+/100s on a lot of my school work despite the fact that I usually do everything last minute. Some of my teachers have even left me comments like "I see you have put a lot of time and effort into this" when really I haven't but I still get a good grade anyway. :huh:

~ There is a hole in each inner thigh area of the jeans I'm wearing. I think I need some new clothes.

[Larrissa]

:o good wishes to you nymphette

[sarahkate]

~ Oh no!! I hope Harrison will be ok!!!! Sending truck loads of good vibes your way... good luck!!

~ Gee, I'm worried about holes in my pants when there are sick little cutie babies out there. :(

~ No fact #3, nope, none.

[Larrissa]

sometimes i feel like a spoiled little ass for what i worry and angst over ... with all the other people in the world with so much more trouble than myself ...

but really. OW. :blink:

to live is to hurt. damn the buddhists! :angry:

[Lorrell]

1. Everyone is coughing and sneezing around and on me. They are all sick, but don't want to go home because of the money.


2. I wonder what black market doctor has flu shots...I must have one soon!


3. I have way too many things to do to be sick, maybe I should tape off my cubicle with crime scene tape and spray the area with Lysol disinfectent. <_<

yeah, i'm just the tester for everything...first i had the bad reaction to penecillin (hives upon hives), so my sister's got tested...just Leeann is allergic (she's also allergic to everything else :P)

next, I had eye surgery when i was three, and died, b/c of the anaesthetic....so they tested my sisters...again, just Leeann has pseudo-cholinesterase deficiency, too. see a pattern here?

and hopefully things turn out ok w/ harrison and the hospital!! I have nothing to do today, so I'll be sending good luck vibes all day to you!!!!!

I do this too. Just accept the fact that you're a genius and move on. ;)

I just submitted my grant application.

I am accepting good luck charms, rabbit feets, four-leaf clovers, daruma.

I am going to go for a nice long walk now.

The next grant application is due 15 January. Eek! I don't wanna do it!

[Larrissa]

there are moments, where i wish i had taken the whole formal education thing. dont think i would be who i am now if i had. and you know, me being me is worth not going to college for. despite whatever YOU may think :P

thank you lord jesus, for the advil, and taking away the pain

i have work to do! toodles :wave:

[tanagee]

My hubby's friends from Chicago just had a baby on Sunday and they e-mailed a picture

Amazingly enough it did not bother me.

Still waiting for something significant to happen...I guess I'll go to the store in the meanwhile.

***good vibes for Robyn & Harrisson***

If any of these are in subjects you really like, you could tell the instructors. They might give you actual challenges and get you ahead.

Or - I've never done this, but in some classes it might be called for - if it's a really boring course that you're practically able to sleep through and still get A+s, ask if you can just take the final in a week or so, and stop wasting your time in class.

I'm kind of amazed Robyn stopped to tell us about Harrison on the way to the ER, but it is somehow better to be able to worry in advance or at the same time, rather than just in retrospect. I really hope he's okay.

[Death_Or_Aldona]

i sometimes wish i had dropped out of high school, got my GED and started college early. maybe i would have had more energy and done better...

i'm still not giving up hope. oh college...someday i'll be ready for you...

silver is another word that has no rhyming friends

[namelessgirl]

thinking good thoughts for nymphette and harrison!!!

i picked up a really nice hitchhiker on the way home from school. i was almost sad to let her out of the car.

i'm still really stressing and i think perhaps i should go for a walk.

[Christine_0701]

spent the past hour working on my webby

just about done, now, just checking there's no errors in the pages

then it'll be open for business again, and I can work on actually adding new poems (and boy, have I got a lot)

[velma]

Spent an hour at the dentist getting a root canal. My jaw is sore from being stretched open!

Stopped at the library to see old friends and got damn parking ticket!

And I can't find my glasses!

not one of my better days... :angry:

[gwensmom]

I found I had a flat tire when I came out of the hair salon today.

Everyone in there was flabbergasted that I knew how to change the tire myself.

My hands got dirty but dammit my hair looked good!

[gwensmom]

I put the donut on and will have to get two new front tires tomorrow.

It's not so big of a deal because I had planned on getting them after Christmas.

I will not be able to go to work tomorrow but I will be in the house by myself for at least three hours!. that hardly every happens.

I did exactly that and I never regretted it. I started out in Junior College with a part-time job as well...I was already finishing my Winter quarter of JC, when my high school senior class was still trying to decide what to wear to Prom, what a crock!


Educating yourself is a never-ending endeavor. There's always something to new to learn. ;)

[gwensmom]

LaRRissa I am dealing with cramps today too. Tylenol, cookies and blueberry tea have made a huge difference.

Lilac is usually on the same schedule. How are you feeling today, Lilac?

Before I decide whose cult to join I will wait to see if Helquin is recruting new followers too.

[Christine_0701]

yeay! it's done. feel free to check it (http://http"//www.butterflycorner.2ya.com) out :D

I still have loads of work to do, but it's open

now i'm bored :P

[Christine_0701]

I keep seeing things weird out of my left eye....and i keep getting a spot on it

should i be worried?

i think i should be worried...

[Christine_0701]

don't go in my things without asking...she doesn't like it when i go in her things without asking

i'm sorry if sitting in my room while i do homework is boring, nobody's forcing you to stay!!!!

why is it that whenever i'm BORED is when the soaps come on tv?

[Cuilanië]

Big hugs to Harrison and Robyn... :crossed:

It snowed again today. And still no sign of my winter coat.

I ate candy today. Too much candy. Bad Eve. :rolleyes:

[Larrissa]

a bunch of crazy people

i love it

Helquin doesn't need to recruit. You just wake up in his front yard one morning...

[tanagee]

Ran into a 'friend' at the grocery store...wouldn't ya know it, SHE'S pregnant. She is 41 so I don't envy her one bit, she has wanted a baby for the longest time. She's a bitch but I don't have to deal with her anymore anyways. She's also one of those people that isn't happy unless there is something to bitch about.

I came home to find that Norton found a trojan virus on my computer, but can't fix it and I can't find any info on their website about it. :angry:

I need to get working on our website some more...

[Christine_0701]

tana, try rebooting your computer into safe mode, then rerun norton

[Lorrell]

1. It's been gloomy looking all afternoon like a winter sky, and now it is raining which is good because I didn't irrigate today.


2. I was going to spray Neem oil on the tomatoes, I also need make the trellis for them and I won't have time to do it. Some little worms are having their way and I'm pissed! They better hope I'm too god-damn busy tomorrow to kill them. Their party is coming to an end real soon.


3. I'm reading about Gyotaku (Japanese Fish Rubbings)

Hey you kids -- keep off of my yard! Yards aren't funny! They're serious business! :yell:

:lol:

I walked out on my dentist today. I told the receptionist that I don't wait longer than 30 minutes for any appointment. <_<

[bluecrayon]

I think I'll make a Helquin tee shirt!

6 days.

yikes.

I hope it includes an explanation of what's been going on around here for the last 3 days... :huh:

My timer says one minute left. Poop. <_<

Yes -- my life is controlled by a wind-up Minute Minder! See how the mighty have fallen! Who says Fate isn't wretched? Run -- run while you can!

[bluecrayon]

Helquin, you turkey, you!

Your timer is always going off everytime I show up to find you!

It's going on the tee shirt!

So you don't wind up in Helquin's yard. You wake up one morning in his Minute Minder's yard.

Make a tee-shirt for the Minute Minder!

[zanna]

killing some time while i let my hair dye set in.

once you go black, you never go back.

yep, that's the color i'll have in about 20 minutes.

its TOTALLY saras fault, she was the instigator this time.

the invasion has stopped though.

im working on a jihad for james.

[Lorrell]

1. Oh, I've been using a timer for a long time. I have a little one attached to my key chain and when your 15 minutes of fame is over I usually walk away. My boss hasn't caught on yet, but then he seldom can think a coherent thought for that long. :lol:


2. I am punishing J tonight for annoying me with his inconsiderate ways. Is it time for him to go?


3. I have a giant darkroom timer I keep by my bed now since the darkroom is a thing of the past.

[bluecrayon]

Time, timers, time off, time to go, time to pack, time to have fun, time I got it together, time to just forget about time altogether or maybe embrace the bejesus out of it...

hmm. was that a list?

time just heckola confuses me.

[Lilac]

What the heck is up with Larrissa and those damned turtles?

Explain, missy...or else!

Beware of pickpockets and loose women.

[Helquin]

Watching these turtles dance to Lee Morgan ("The Sidewinder") is like some trippy Charlie Brown cartoon. I am mesmerized! :lol:

This timer thing is really helping my productivity, but my computer is trudging like a dinosaur. I can't listen to online radio, edit a document, print photographs and Google all at the same time. <_<

I've got this great new warm shirt. It's like wearing a hug. :)

[bluecrayon]

okay. I was sitting across the room from my computer and I HEARD Helquin laugh!

I did.

or was that my neighbor?

[namelessgirl]

i'm digging on old poetry and old music tonight that i forgot i had. good times good times.


talking with Ms Lilac is fun as ever. you are a bundle of laughs missy!


the cat still hasn't forgiven us for putting flea treatment on him today.

It was me! :lol:

I was cracking myself up with a new character.

"She Who Will Brook No Nonsense"

:lol:

[namelessgirl]

I've been offered a job as a dominatrix. $200/hr to whip some idiot. And I have to dress up in a black latex catsuit.

I don't even want to know what sort of visual you pervs just came up with.

:o

[bluecrayon]

Namelessgirl, I would take that job in a minute...

wow. think of the landscape of color in so intimate an act.

Helquin, I KNEW it was you. ;)

[Helquin]

Use powder.

Latex.

Not as comfortable as you might think... :huh:

[Christine_0701]

wondering how Harrison is

also wondering how Robyn is!!!

wondering about wondering

[namelessgirl]

I'm so not taking the job. I just can't what with my current marital situation. Plus I don't think I could stop laughing or grinning like an idiot that someone was paying me craploads of money to do that.


Music is so good. God damn. I haven't listened to these songs in FOREVER.


The Jesus candle is looking at me all judgingly. I WON'T DO IT AGAIN!

[bluecrayon]

Okay. Is Helquin gone again without saying goodbye, that tart!

Poncho, my ass.

I want to put that damn turtle in a nervousness tee shirt.

[Cuilanië]

Cold, cold, cold out there. Hot chocolate weather.

If there had been more snow, I'd have built a fort.

My last "fort" was more like a sturdy tunnel dug in a snowbank...

:D

[Cuilanië]

Definitely not poncho weather here...

I miss having the services of a computer all to myself.

I've been offered a sort of on-hold freelance translator's job. I'll do it more to be helpful than for the money... But I have to check things like word rates and such.

[Christine_0701]

i'm about to make some hot cocoa

corner gas is so hilarious

the odd good canadian show

[Helquin]

No Helquin did not leave without saying goodbye. That tart! :lol:

My timer just went off, to remind me that life is Not Fun. <_<

I don't know if that timer is gonna live through the night... :ph34r:

[bluecrayon]

tarts are good, by the way.

sticky and sweet and pretty to look at.

Ponchos are a different can of worms.

[Cuilanië]

I say wreck it. :evil: Time and I are at loggerheads most of the time, anyway.

I don't know how I manage to make planes and get to work on time...

I had an urge to play Diablo today. But my comp games are with my winter coat, somewhere in between...

[chunkymonkey]

I love this evening's topics.
I love turning people onto ness.
I love writing in red ink.

[Cuilanië]

Gotta go.

Closing time.

Sigh.

[Larrissa]

i am addicted to turtle

its hot in here

i said nasty things, but i meant them :o

[Christine_0701]

i still have my headache from last night

i even took a tylenol today :(

that new walmart commercial with Gingy is cute!

[siafu]

LA-rrissa...please convey me your address.

i drank mi.lk with my supper. i don't really like milk, but it made my tummy feel mellow.

i tried to quit at work. my director asked me to stay one more day.

[bluecrayon]

I might have eaten too much humble pie for my dinner...

I am way too accomadating to the triangle

it IS hot in here.

[Christine_0701]

why does law and order always have to show reruns?

i need to do some crunches

my sister is such a "know-it-all"

[Death_Or_Aldona]

oh dear...if they move here i will move to yet another town

family is tricky business

i never called my mom back....i'm sure she's literally angry with rage.

[Christine_0701]

"mad with rage"...i like that

I need to dress up my dorm room some

I think i should tidy it up first

[rockermom]

tidying up a dorm room subtracts for the overall
decor, i feel.

i myself live in a joseph cornell box.

it gets a bit crowded, but i like shiny things.

[Zhenechka]

I wish that I were half as smart as rockermom.

There's a series of new Slovenian avant-garde films going down...in Seattle. :angry:

My navel isn't really that interesting this morning.

[Serenity]

I'm at the MLC (multi-language centre) before my spanish class at 12...

Saw the most HORRIBLE movie last night (Birth) OMG!! I hated *every* minute of it!!!

My brother fell asleep during said movie and actually began to snore softly.

[Larrissa]

i bet you didnt know, but im madly in love with serenity

i wonder what laws apply to postcards being unsendable if they are obscene

today today. lets not waste it

[siafu]

i don't know. maybe obscene postcards should have plain brown wrappers.

more about the new Slovenian avant-garde films. where? are you going? how much does it cost to watch them.

i said i wouldn't pay ten bucks to go to a drag show. that probably makes me a short stick in deep mud.

[velma]

Larrissa is so fickle with her affections!

bluecrayon sounds kind of blue today

rockermom's cornell box sounds interesting

[velma]

welcome yerxa to the insane world of quizzes & questions

i feel sluggish today

sdrawkcab gnitirw ekil leef i

[gwensmom]

I am stuck at home without a car until 12:30. I have caught up on the laundry and cleaned the clutter out of the kitchen. T

There are a million more things to do but I don't feel like doing any of them.

At 10 I will watch Crafters Coast to Coast and see if Sillysarasue is on it yet.

[velma]

There are a million more things to do but I don't feel like doing any of them.

how i know that feeling, gwensmom

if i lived near you, i'd come chauffer you around

i hope gwen is doing well


p.s. i think i spelled chaffer wrong. chauffeur? chauffere?

[gwensmom]

OMG riding around with Velma would be a blast!

What I really should do is take a nap

Where is Lilac?

[Larrissa]

i DEMAND lilacness.

i had a donut

im gonna have two more

[Larrissa]

there needs to be a huge notice to the new people PUT YOUR USERNAME ON YER MAIL.

ten postcards sent all on one day arrive seperately on many days

im loving the whole turkey namecalling thing, and miss insomniac lullabye

doing ANYTHING with Velma would probably be a lbsta!

when I'm gone for a while from here, is anyone gonna say "I wonder where Blue is?" and "I demand blueness?"

see. there is no justice in the world.

do people still eat turtle soup, by the way?

[Christine_0701]

I will say I miss you, and I'm sure LaRRiSSa will say she demands blueness

if not, I will too ;)

at least we can be consoled by the thought of you having a good time ;)

[sarahkate]

~ I'm worried about Harrison! I hope he is ok!!! :unsure:

~ It's so cold in my office that I have to wear my suede coat while I work. Typing while wearing a bulky-ish coat is rather difficult.

~ I'm hungry. One of my coworker's lunch smells really good... maybe it's beef stew.. though... I don't even like beef stew so I don't know why I like the smell of it. Vegetable stew would be good right now though.

[sarahkate]

~ I wish I wasn't at work, because I'm feeling in the mood to make some postcards. :ph34r:

~ I hate situations when you have a secret that you don't want to tell because you would hurt someone very badly and would have to admit to being the evil person you really are, but then again if you do tell, the weight of that secret would be lifted off of your shoulders and maybe life would eventually move in a different direction, a better direction after the initial horror and pain and fighting and awfulness.

~ sigh.

[Zhenechka]

More about the new Slovene avant-garde can be found here. (http://www.nwfilmforum.org/slovenia/film.htm)

I'm not going because I live in Toronto.

But the Slavic Librarian at the UW sent me the info because...he's mean. And I never finished his bibliography assignment for SLA 505: How to be a good Slavist.

[Zhenechka]

I'm not.

Nor am I a Slav.

I'll have to console myself with "new" Danish film.

Dogme is so over-rated.

[Christine_0701]

I'm wondering about Harrison and Robyn too

Usually, it is better to just tell the secret...you'll probably end up doing it anyways, and the longer you keep it, the more it'll hurt when you tell

I'm leaving soon to go to class :(

Oh Blue, all kinds of people ask about you when you're gone! :D

I hope that people demand helquinity in my absence... I won't respond to requests for helquinness. <_<

Well, maybe from anagramatic Velma. :lol: I agree -- velmation could make any venture hootworthy.

[bluecrayon]

groveling is so pathetic, I admit it!

okay, I've been up all night and I'm a walking emoticon...

probably this one: :wacko:

[Larrissa]

i applied at the cakemasters bakery ^_^ whoo for baked goods!

:mellow: is NOT a kind smilie

lemon verbena kicks super ass

~ That's very good advice. I just wish I was level headed and courageous enough to take that advice! Someday....maybe.

~ Sometimes life is just one big poopsicle.

~ I'm looking at recipes online and my mouth is literally watering!!! I think I want to make some Harvest Pumpkin Drop Cookies (http://www.recipe-source.com/baked-goods/desserts/cookies/27/rec2751.html) this weekend, sans pecans.

[gwensmom]

Yummy- I love cake and want to work at Cakemasters too.

I am making a cake tomorrow to send to school for Gwen's birthday (which is officially on Saturday).

She will be 8! I can't believe she is that old, but then again it feels like she has been around for much much longer than that.

[Serenity]

My spanish class was cancelled after (yipee!!!)

My back is killing me so I'm going to lay down and read for a bit.

i bet you didnt know, but im madly in love with serenity

I am loved :lol:

was i supposed to keep it a secret? :huh:

second fact: i like the blue of the sky on a really sunny day, its oddly dark.

fact three: outkast is playing loudly and i think sara heard me singing but she wont admit it
