Three random facts:

[gwensmom]

My tomato soup was boring so I stirred in some pesto and shredded parmesan. MMMmmmmmm that's the way I will be eating it from now on!

I hope there is some word on Harrison soon :unsure:

It's hard to think of what to get my step-aunt (younger than me and married to my uncle who is over 60 :blink: ) for Christmas. She likes expensive prestige items I can't afford. But she also likes sweets so I'm thinking of making her some chocolate truffles. I've never made them before but it looks easy.

I'm here! I just havent been able to post much while at work because of unfair demands on my time! :lol:

I need to tell my boss I need at least 2 hours (paid) a day to play on Nervousness.

Plus, this mono thing is kinda kicking my ass...I'm tired all the time. But I'll get through!

yeah yeah, i know.

[siafu]

those movies look great. i wonder if i could sneak up for them.

thinking about them while i slept gave me an idea.

i'm going to eat ice cream now. i probably shouldn't think of it as medicinal, but, oh well.

[rockermom]

grovelling has it's uses.

i am typing in my house and wearing my coat, it's
a lovely 53 degrees ferenheight. farinhigt fairontight

i never claimed to be able to spell.

[hammerquill]

Traditional plain French chocolate truffles are quite easy to make. Buy really good chocolate.

Dipped chocolate truffles are a lot more work.

It would be cool to find out more about contemporary Slovenia... I'm a quarter Slovenian.

[rockermom]

i made truffles of a kind last year, rolled in unsweetened cocoa powder.

it was a deliscious mess.

where is solvenia?

[Zhenechka]

Slovenian has a dual, i.e. a special form for things that come in pairs: eyes, legs, arms, fishermen-brothers.

I had a terrible crush on a guy who translated Slovenian poetry.

Slovenia is near Croatia.

I've been sitting down way too much lately.

[rockermom]

my cousin was in craotia, durring the most recent conflict.

now he's in military jail!

the undertones has a song called 'my perfect cousin', and reccomend it heartily to all of you.

[hammerquill]

I love languages with the dual number.

Anglo-Saxon and Arabic also have dual.

Languages with dual grammatical number are just made for love poetry and single combat.

I can undersand Croatian, Bosnian, and Serbian but Slovenian escapes me.

I knew a girl from Slovenia in college.

um, i wish i was born smarter :mellow:

im gonna go do stuff

because sitting here any longer isnt going to do any good

1. J is home sick in bed with whatever everyone had around me yesterday(sniffle, sniffle, blechooee!) I guess I am a carrier, like Typhoid Mary, no symptoms but deadly as hell. <_<

class was actually ok today, but we only made it through...6 poems? really, that many, i guess we did good, then

we still have about 35 to go through, and only 7 more classes...so I guess we can make it....barely

[siafu]

i made this to take to work and eat-- http://pasta.allrecipes.com/AZ/PeanutButterNoodles.asp

H says it's pregnant goofy food, but she doesn't like thai food and i do.

all i want to eat this minute is vanilla pudding

[Larrissa]

we made thai food the other night it was SO good

um, avert your eyes if youre squeamish or something ...

im doing the cloth pad thing for the first time, without velcro, and ended up dropping two, yes two, in the toilet. oooops. other than that its been super. wish i had known about them before.

[Zhenechka]

I had a friend who used the keeper. She really liked it.

I'm going to go meet ptichka and then we're going to a toy store.

I have not read a single page today.

i like the sea sponges myself.

i'm going to try to go to the doctor tomorrow.

i need to look for more library books to add to my list.

GGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! :yell: :spank: :angry: Those %$#@*&^) idiots at the car dealership did not have my car ready when I went to pick it up!!!!!

The guy that brought the car out said to come back and he would take care of it. Like I would go back to that place!

So tomorrow I will have to drive downtown with the donut and leave the car with a tire place there. My supervisor will shuttle me back and forth to work. I do it for her all the time.

At least Gwen had a good day at school.

i like mine too... if the ones you made or bought have no fasteners, you could probably stitch on some snaps or velcro yourself... :)

my progress with art by the inch has been slow today and yesterday, and i'll be out much of tomorrow i think, so... hrm...

i'm cooking beef stir fry for dinner tonight for me and my parents. (yes, i can cook other things, i just don't).

[sarahkate]

~ Wow it's a party in here at the moment. Hello Nervous-friends! :wave:

I once made a 'stir-fry' with pork, onions and peanut butter. Lets just say it was a one off recipie.

I am eating a concoction of chili (no beans), Fritos and Cheddar cheese. I have heard it given different names...Chili Billy, Pepper Belly or as my mom called it "barf".

I think I shall regret it later...where's the Tums??

[namelessgirl]

Why must everyone come up with new tasks for me, all on the same day??

Today I have just been informed that the newsletter is not due on the first of the month, as I had so assumed and been doing it. Instead there is a special secret calendar we go by.


I've been doing the newsletter for like five months and this is the first time anyone's said anything. :huh:

[Lorrell]

1. My shower faucets are in the process of being repaired, no more drip,drip drip all though the night?


2. My bathroom needs a total makeover, Paint, Fixtures, Curtains, Rugs, the Works.


3. This is a project that's on my Procastination Act.

[Larrissa]

wow. :mellow: that sucks. i had no idea.

have paint all over my hands. the best art sessions are the ones you only get up to go pee or change the cd.

the only timer ive ever used was the length of a cd being about an hour.

[chunkymonkey]

wednesday makes me happy
delivery makes me happy
the tv makes me happy

for today, that's enough

[namelessgirl]

i so see you missy, invisible or no <_<

I would like to hear more.

The history of Croatia is still one I have not fully grasped.

evil headaches.

one of two fliers done

OMG "i hope they died" NOT TELLING

[Larrissa]

holy crap, boredom just hit hard and fast

i have consumed, er, used nearly two containers of glitter today

really, i arted myself till exhaustion. sometimes it works that way. its draining and i do it till i can hardly move. then i have to vegetate in one way or another. like this. :mellow:

[Lorrell]

1. OK so I got the manual for the Nikon, downloaded PDF file and printed out ---oh way, Yes, this is the way it's supposed to be.


2 When can I return to the Emerald City? This Friday I'm going again...USF here I come.


3. Going Postal tomorrow,


I :rock:

[namelessgirl]

my roommate is such a glitter whore

i am repulsed and apprehensive.

she probably rolled the cats in it.

[Larrissa]

well i do hope they died. shit. :o the world needs more dead people. yes. my dad is gone too. i would have appreciated another choice, but its not up to me.

la la la

i wish so many people to be super when i hear they are down ... helplessness is awful

[Larrissa]

my beautiful brown courdoroy pants. have glue all over them. it was inevitable. alot like dying.

a glitter rolled cat would be freaking wonderful. i would giggle uncontrollably.

the dancing cat is the best ever. ^_^

[CheekilyYours]

Speaking of dancing cats...you should check this (http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/kittycat.php) one out.

I'm full and one of my roomates made something with churizo in it and now the house smells funky.

It's a dreary grey rainy day and I LOVE it.

boys make me cry too

i just had a pesto sandwich right, and had hot sauce for dipping. well i finish the sandwich first, and proceeded to consume the rest of the hot sauce and now im sweaty and it burns. but it was worth it.

i should check to make sure we got only the postcards i thought we got .... damn hotmail for needing me to click a box to add the message to my sent folder!

[Larrissa]

yes, only eight from mister stinky

oh

my

gawd

That is such a royal hoot! :lol:

Gola Wolf Richards (http://mottocitizens.com/main/default.asp) is running some damn spooky new ads on Air America Radio. He has a very compelling voice & an intriguing message, but every time I visit his web site I have to laugh at all the New Age hoakum.

I tried to combine dinner with my 10pm chaining...

What a mess. <_<

[Larrissa]

ewwwww he looks nerdy.

why is it so damn difficult to come up with facts lately?

maybe this has to do with it: 1660 posts by me out of 21,549 total posts.

[Larrissa]

GAH why is no one else posting???

entertain me!

[namelessgirl]

stupid music program being all slow and crappy <_<

stupid pop up ads

stupid sara procrastinating

[hammerquill]

The *$!@#! earthlink database server is down again.

That's why we're slumming it here on Nness tonight.

I'm supposed to be making spaghetti sauce.

[namelessgirl]

Shredded cheese makes everything better.

My cat assumes that if it's edible, he's entitled to some. Or at least entitled to the opportunity to sniff it and walk away with a great show of disdain.

I want huggles. You got a problem with that?

[hammerquill]

I finished all the photos on the studio website (http://www.davidmbowmanstudio.com), and we got them all uploaded and linked (we hope).

That means we have a picture online of every wallpiece we've ever made, except for six that for various reasons didn't get pictures taken, and the one I just finished the day before yesterday (we haven't had sun since to take a good shot of it).

Later I'll start fixing all the mediocre pictures. And a lot of other stuff about the site.

[chunkymonkey]

the site is great hammerquill :P
loooooong day
anyone need a roommate?

[namelessgirl]

chunkymonkey, you wanna move to florida? :)


damn dinner was good! i must remember to commend the chef


the electrician came and didn't know how to fix the plumbing. go figure. and here i thought i was pretty specific when i told my landlord what the problem was.

[Cuilanië]

I fell asleep after dinner, and now I feel all weird.

Midnight comes way too fast...

I didn't have any coffee today.

[Cuilanië]

I always think of all kinds of replies to posts I read here, but when I'm all caught up and it's time to post, it's all fled...

My. Skin. Itches. It's so dry, it's not even funny. I don't know what to do about it. Moisturising cream doesn't seem to be enough.

Aack, midnight. Sigh.

[chunkymonkey]

chunkymonkey, you wanna move to florida?

I'm tempted. :wub: real palm trees... Let's see how far she goes.


I dunno what I am doing, it will probably include selling most of my stuff.
I'm looking forward to a slightly hobo life actually.
must keep my mind on the pleasent possibilities and not on the anxiety.

[Cuilanië]

The hobo life isn't all that it's made out to be, trust me...

I'm tired of listening to the sounds of Unreal Tournament behind me... I heard those too often from my ex's computer.

That game gives me motion sickness. No kidding. I can't handle the 1st person POV.

[namelessgirl]

Ms Monkey, the Larrissa and the kitties and I just had a house meeting. Get your ass down here whenever you like. The couch is yours.

That's it.

No third fact for you. :P

[Cuilanië]

I'm embarrassed. Ever since Ms. Nameless changed her avatar, I've been assuming it was a Halloween pic of her.

I just recognised it. Screenshot from Le fabuleux destin d'Amelie Poulain. >.< <slaps head>

Wish moving to CA was as easy as picking up my stuff again and going.

[namelessgirl]

Oh I wish that was me! Oh i do i do! Isn't that movie just fabulous though?? I love it and Larrissa hadn't even been here a week before I sat her down and made her watch it.

My commune might be growing. *rubs hands together* braaaaaainnssssss

Damn it why can't I stop playing on the internet??

Why would you want to?

The idea of tech support via chat is a brilliant one.

Though it can be at least as annoying as any other tech support.

They're taking an awfully long time to figure this database problem out, which leads me to suspect they're actually doing ...technical support. :o

[hammerquill]

ARGH. They finally got the db back online, but it's just when Eve had to get offline and go home. SIGH.

Guess I'll just go make spaghetti sauce, or do the dishes or something.

Luckily I've got a book on tape to keep me going at that.

[Larrissa]

i want to piss on a feminists head :yell:

i get such angst and rage and love and general emotion over such trivial things. theres a constant thing between "its just the internet" and "these are real people too!"

maybe if someone took the massively brave effort to whack him on the side of the head, that could help.

i want to call miss veronica "cunteemonkey" to her face. then i can die happy. ^_^

[Larrissa]

oh yo yourself you damned white pussy.

either take yer meds, or dont take them at all.

"fun with assumptions!"

[zanna]

frump.

i'm tired but unwilling to give in.

i wish i wanted to finish my glass of wine.

[Larrissa]

miss zanna, i wish i had the motivation to go get a glass of wine, as im sure i would enjoy it. but sometimes alcohol is more effort than i can handle.

ooooooooh sara left herself signed into MSN messenger :evil:

but im good, really. and am going to go immediately sign out. :mellow:

okay. i dint even read ONE contact!

[Christine_0701]

i'm tired too!!

but i'm waiting to see if someone's gonna come online

sometimes i obsess too much

[Larrissa]

oh yes. sometimes i obsess too much too. today might be the first day i admitted this to myself.

i send it away with the fact that i need a bigger more involving life.

but if this life isnt involving, oh hell. i dont know. im on a damn mood thing that i cant seem to hop off of.

[Larrissa]

deal lord, its late and my eyes are puffy and i should go to sleep

im sewing buttons and a chunk of bone and some weird metal peices to the living room painting. i think its neat. and im scared of what miss saras gonna say when its done, she is such an art snob! :o

love love.

[Helquin]

Fortune Tellers out the kazoo :wacko:

It was a great LMAO, but the documentation is taking F O R E V E R on my clunky old machines. :angry:

And my flying car. Where's my flying car? It's 2004 for pete's sake. :yell:

[Helquin]

I see Miss Lilac hanging out at this ungodly hour :lol:

Hey you -- how ya feelin'? Hope things are looking up for you. :)

[Lilac]

Hello Helquin! Yep, I'm hanging out, but not for long. I have to be in Cleveland at 6:00. (It's a 2 hour drive from here.)

Damn it. I should have taken the hotel room that my company offered me. Getting up at 3:00 is horrendous!

I just wanted to pop in to see how everything was going! :D

[Lilac]

Okay...everything sees to be holding up fine here in Nervousland, so I must put on my big shit kicking boots, old carhart coat and head off down the road to Cleeeeveland.

I'm going to stop at the conveinence store a buy a tub of coffee.

One so big that it won't even fit in my cup holder.

[Lorrell]

1. This morning I'm in a meeting downtown with some people who are known to chain smoke 5 packs of Marlboros a day and drink coffee from dawn to dusk. I'm thinking about wearing my respirator and ear plugs. <_<


2. V's sweet potatoe pie is the best I have ever had. She did something to the sweet potatoes, and the crust...well, there is NO way that flour is from around here. Maybe I can pry the recipe out of her :unsure:



3. J is still sneezing, violently, and I'm still here without a flu shot :ill: I must have a pretty strong immune system but it will be seriously tested before the day's out.

[Larrissa]

its a thunderstorm outside

hmmmm :)

that made me have shivers

[sarahkate]

~ I am in love with Larrissa's dancing kitty. :wub: I think I will marry him (her?)?

~ I think chunkymonkey should come live with ME! Or would that be considered blasphemous, for a Jersey girl to move to upstate NY? :P

~ Actually, I have been kind of wishing lately that I didn't live with my boyfriend and has a friend-roommate instead.

[sarahkate]

~ Boys are a little icky sometimes. They drive me crazy.

~ Chocolate Raspberry cocoa for breakfast. Mmm.

~ WHERE IS ROBYN??!?! I'm worried!

[Zhenechka]

I'm wondering about Robyn too.

If I don't open my laptop before I leave the house, I get to campus earlier.

The books I need are *still* missing.

[Death_Or_Aldona]

i think chunkymonkey should come to marietta!

we have boats....and...and...um. a machine at the post office that sells stamps 24 hours a day...and....stuff.

I put my onion bagel in the toaster and sat down here...then I discovered that my bagel had been toasting a little TOOOO long.

I played with a baby's toes yesterday. *sigh*

I wonder what has become of Mia the oreogirl?

[Christine_0701]

yes, we need Nymphettishness very soon!!!!!

I'm actually surprised I was so awake that early, I went to bed @ midnight

We're supposed to get some snow & freezing rain tomorrow; I may cry.

I've got the munchies. Pork rinds or popcorn, anyone?

I get to get off my ass and do something productive.

[namelessgirl]

i guess maybe i should be nice to larrissa since she didn't mess with my msn. you could have emailed namelessboy with all those nasty things you want to say to him!! haha. but yes i am mean to larrissa, she always forgets to log off the main page on n'ness so i edit your profile and rename her "cat turd" and "dung beetle." :D


i have things i need to write in my LJ that are all exciting but i can't because they have to be secret for now. grr. this makes me angsty.

i almost finished organizing my bills last night. i will do the rest this morning and be very pleased with myself. now all i have to do today is study for two tests and write a tenpage paper. joy!

[namelessgirl]

I resent being called an Art Snob. You haven't even seen my art yet missy! Trust me, it's nothing to get all pretentious about. I just don't like glitter. Is that so wrong?

Speaking of, it's almost noon and I am finally hearing movement upstairs. Hello!!!! :wave:

The cat keeps trying to get something out of the kitchen garbage can. He wants the paper towel my bagel was on. He thinks there might be some cream cheese on it still or something. TOUGH LUCK KITTY! :P

[Zhenechka]

My scarf does not match my shirt.

I am wearing my scard indoors.

My carrel is frosty.

[velma]

I am wearing my scard indoors.

What's a scard? :D

[velma]

There's a lot of people in my neighborhood doing yard work today. Obsessives!

They're probably irritated because the leaves from our yard keep blowing into theirs. Hee heeee.

Let them eat cake!

[velma]

Hey hey hammerquill--I see you down there! :)

[Christine_0701]

I dont' have to to yardwork, it's quite nice

Garth got a new job!!! YEAY!!!!!

Now maybe they'll be better off, he'll be making at least minimum wage :D

[Zhenechka]

A scard is related to a scarf. In fact, it is a scarf as typed by a very tired person.

Who is still muchos depressed about the election.

So depressed, in fact, that when she got to the pictures/letters from foreigners telling us that they still loved Americans, even though we had re-elected Shrub on Sorry Everybody (http://sorryeverybody.com/) she started crying.

[Death_Or_Aldona]

i'm so hungry :P this is a good thing though! i've gone without food too many days this week.

we're talking about being really bad and having chinese food. mmmm....we'll prolly chicken out though. we only have $20 and really should spend it on groceries for the house rather than one meal...

i switched to mozilla firefox as my browser. i don't miss internet explorer a bit :)

[velma]

i scared hammerquill away...

is larrissa waking up yet?
oops, that's a question, not a fact

i think i'll have popcorn for lunch--or leftover pizza skins

i feel like i'm talking to myself

[Zhenechka]

Popcorn. Eat the popcorn!

[velma]

ok, zhenechka--you convinced me! here i go, off to make popcorn!

[gwensmom]

My tires are fixed! My wallet is empty!

I am about to panic about Harrison. I hope and pray that he is ok.

Gwen did not cry this morning :yay:. But I did.

[Christine_0701]

yeay for the tires!!!!

yeay for gwen and a good mood!!!

but why did you cry?

[siafu]

we had a huge earth rifting fight last night. i really hate them

someone gave me coffee but no cream. ick man.

i haven't quit my job yet

[zanna]

i miss feeling connected to the world.

i feel that somehow i've lost something that was once in me.

but i can't quite place what it is.

[hammerquill]

There's a Lego Millennium Falcon kit.

I want to invest in the Lego corporation.

If I were ever absurdly rich, I think I'd have to buy a whole roomful of Legos, with all the cool stuff they have now.

[namelessgirl]

Larrissa is still not up yet. I keep hearing the upstairs floor creak but so far she has not surfaced. At what point am I justified in banging on the door and saying "Entertain me you lazy bum!"??? :P

I just posted 15 books for sale online and it hurts my little book loving heart. Stupid bills! Stupid monetary system! Why can't I barter with my freaking electric company? "Two handmade books and a cat that poops on everything?"

OOOO I think he heard what I typed, he just gave me the Look of Doom ™ hehe.

[gwensmom]

That David Gest guy that used to be married to Liza Minelli just toured the agency I work for. He gave a little old lady in the thrift shop $100.

I bought a small dhurrie rug in the thrift store for $5. I don't really have a place for it but the colors were so pretty and it was in perfect condition.

I also got two new books - Reading lolita in Tehran and peace like a river. I have been wanting to read them both and now I have them for $1 each!

[siafu]

you are lucky you work next to a thrift store.

did he look handsome? did he have a black eye?

i should do some work.

[Christine_0701]

I see Sirius, hello!!

We just finished the 2 minutes of silence

Oh, I search for siriustell as well...

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, I created a mock portfolio of where I would invest my money...if I had the freedom to invest it...oh, if only I had...

Students in my class frequently (about three times a week) are inspired to ask, "Are you serious?" and I respond, "Why, yes I am sirius." and then try not to giggle. It makes me think of you whenever that happens...

[Larrissa]

my friends, my dear friends

for one, damn you for searching for siriurustell!! <_<

and i claimed chunkymonkey first!! :lol:

rawr!

[Larrissa]

~ I know I sound like a broken record, but where is Robyn?? I'm really worried about Harrison. :'(

[Larrissa]

i have no patience waiting for internet response, none.

which means people often come back online to find two or three messages from me.

to hell with restraint!

<i hope harrisons okay too! :unsure: >

[Larrissa]

its all dark outside, and its ALREADY 3:30???

the thought of sleeping too much makes me wanna sleep more.

oh yeah, i should go do that because of that and he prolly already saw! thats alright. i dont know what im doing with the jihad yet anyway, so neither does he.

[Larrissa]

there i am! i havent been stalked for a day or two, so it should be okay.

huge needles for canvas: evil. they HURT and i bleed. because im clumsy. you would think i would have a thimble by now, but noooooo.

That could be cool...

I used to have an upstairs neighbor who played Todd Rungren 24/7. I like Todd Rungren, but after a certain point enough is enough! :lol:

My printer is so slow I could cry.

And I'm still waiting for that flying car.

[bluecrayon]

I'm here so where's the food?

George Jones is uber cool in my book.

The soon to be ex whizzed around inside my email (how the heck did he do that, and why?) the other night and read my secrets and removed the box for the computer, so I am, once again, having to rent computer time to visit here.

[gwensmom]

I wanted to send something to Ibiddy Boo today but the post office is closed :(

Gwen just laughed. She hardly ever does that. It's really cute.

Her birthday is Saturday and I need to get a "Happy Birthday" balloon to tie on her wheelchair tomorrow at school. It gets her a lot of attention and that is what she likes most!

[Christine_0701]

happy early b-day to Gwen!!!!

how come you didn't give us advance warning, Sarah, then we could've sent gifties

Ah well, I'm sure Gwen won't mind if they're a bit belated?

[Death_Or_Aldona]

he was playing a particularly good george jones song :) oh, is it called whose gonna fill their shoes?

george jones make me very nostalgic

tjere's a fly in here and it's driving me mad...

[namelessgirl]

I finally got my bills organized. I'm really proud of myself. Organization has never been my strong suit.

Now if only I was studying and working on that paper.

I'm hungry but I don't know what I want to eat.

[Death_Or_Aldona]

going to spend the evening drinking rum and coke

been drinking a little more often than usual lately :P

i should be doing other things, but we all knew that wasn't going to happen

[Zhenechka]

Now that everyone's here, I'm heading home.

I have returns to sort.

And dinner to eat.

[bluecrayon]

My time is almost running out.

this has been fun today, so many of us here.

wish me luck with the soon to be ex... :(

[Christine_0701]

bye zhenechka

bye blue! good luck!!

where IS Robyn???

[gwensmom]

Does anyone have Robyn's phone number?

I made Gwen a cake to take to school tomorrow and the icing is WAY pink.

I don't want to go to work tomorrow but i have to because I have tires to pay for.

[Helquin]

Good luck to all who need it. It's too cold to go out, so I'm not using mine.

I'm watching my printer guzzle color ink cartridges and wondering how long I can postpone a trip to the store. <_<

That darned timer went off but I forgot what in the heck I was timing...

[Christine_0701]

i think ibbidyboo has her number?

I could be wrong...

I can see if I can find it, tho....

[chunkymonkey]

aww blue.
copying all my data to discs that I will now gaurd with my life.
this keeps going on and on and on.

[Christine_0701]

I was wrong, auntieemu has it and B :ph34r: n

[namelessgirl]

I can NOT believe we have IN-STATE competition for Ms Monkey. UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!! :yell:

The Larrissa is sewing. I give it about five minutes til the swearing starts.

What the hell are we listening to?

[namelessgirl]

I give it about five minutes til the swearing starts.


Yep, right on the dot <_<


I've been informed we're listening to the "Super Mix". It is indeed Super.

I SEE YOU WENCH.

[Zhenechka]

Good luck on the ex.

I'm waiting for dinner.

We're having lentils with spinach, yoghurt, and fried onions.

Yummy!

Returns are sorted.

[Larrissa]

ive been doing stuff all day and nothing has gotten done :mellow: :angry: :rolleyes:

sewing does indeed piss me the fuck off

im aiming for "annoying" in the package to the Strangers :D

[Lorrell]

1. Are ya'll enjoying the rain, and thunder, lightening etc. up der in Waltonville? Good weather for indoor projects B)


2. I hope it doesn't rain when I go over to USF tomorrow, I'm looking forward to it but I really wish I had a clone to take over all the things that don't get done when I leave. :rolleyes:


3. Veteran's Day was just too sad, and the sadder fact is that more veteran's are being made as I type this. There is something I can pick-up, a vibe so to speak off of people who have killed, murdered and maimed others in the name of war, it's not very pretty and sort of a black hole of empty matter that just hovers below their surface....kind of an emotional tar baby they just can't let go of. Very Sad, Really! :'(

[Larrissa]

post

more

people!

[Christine_0701]

I just finished eating

But I'm still hungry

Which is very unfortunate because I don't really have anything I can eat

[gwensmom]

It's 8:30 and I feel like going to bed.

I think I will after I finish reading the forums.

I had a difficult decision to make and I have now made it. It hope it is the right choice.

[Lorrell]

1. Playing with the camera and manuals again trying to figure out what's what. :huh:


2. No mail today, so I'm caught up finally. :)


3. I'm having a gummy candy attack, Someone needs to take it away from me! Help :lol:

[namelessgirl]

Lorrell, all this rain was poorly timed! We were planning to kick butt in the yard (mowing it with a weedwhacker tends to take a while) but instead we've been cooped up all day and are a bit high strung. Larrissa threatened me with a knife while we were cooking dinner! :o

I still haven't studied and she's trying to talk me into painting. I vote for knitting and movie watching and tea drinking.

Damn she swears a lot but what she makes is cool.

[Larrissa]

if sewing DIDNT SUCK SO MUCH i wouldnt have to curse as much.

but hot damn, i love this here thingie

back to work!

[siafu]

if you put krank on your gums

they will rot

some people put krank in their heinies

[Lilac]

What is krank?

I lost my glasses down a port - o potty today.

Not happy. Not happy at all.

[Larrissa]

hell to krank!

hell to losing glasses!

hell to glasses costing so damned much!

[hammerquill]

Crank is crystal meth, I believe.

By analogy with Crack being crystal cocaine, I guess.

Hmmm. John Ashcroft... er, Whatzisname Gonzales will have another look over here, now, won't he?

[Cuilanië]

There it goes again, it's time to post and my mind is blank. :wacko:

I'm seriously worried about Robyn and Harrison now. :(

And hugs to Ms. Blue, and Sarah, who seem to need them...

[Cuilanië]

I had such a headache earlier I had to take two extra-strength aspirin before I left to come here.

I think I'll have to take some pseudoephedrin hydrochloride when I get back. D.a.m.n.

I've been taking vitamin C like crazy, and I'm threatened with a cold anyway... hmph. <_<

[Cuilanië]

It's cold, and getting colder. The little puddles are all frozen, and the minimum forecast for tonight is -6 degrees Celsius...

3 days, 14 hours.

I haven't had anything too sugary today. I shouldn't have let myself think about that... :rolleyes:

tippo

[Lorrell]

1. Well, I am just about ready to say FU-- it to trying to make this digital photograpy thing happen... i need something called a CF card reader to read the memory card, and I need to insert THAT somewhere...etc..I put the CD in the readable-writeable and nothing is happing with that ???? but what it shows in the diagram in the manual looks like a Floppy Auggh! of course this is something that is probably available only though Nikon, a CA-20PC-card adapter, and something PCMCIA Type II or III :wacko: If I plug the camera into the TV or VCR I can see the pictures? Ha Ha Ha! :(


2. I think I'll go sew a little, by hand :confused: Too much tech tonight!


3. Ya all can't be getting cabin fever up in Waltonville. You put dem knives down and git busy wid dem "rainy day projects" ;)

[hammerquill]

Lorrell - a CF (CompactFlash) card reader costs very little (like five or six dollars). It plugs into a USB port, which is marked with a little symbol like a trident or cat-o-nine-tails.

If you are using a laptop, you have a big slot in the side which is a PCMCIA slot. Don't worry about the type II or III business. If this is the case, you can get a CF card adapter that fits into that slot, INSTEAD of getting the little reader thingie. But if you're not using a laptop, ignore all that and get a normal CF reader.

BUT, there ought to be a way to plug your camera directly into the computer. Not necessarily, but most digital cameras come with a cable to plug directly into a USB port, and avoid the CF card reader issue entirely.

[hammerquill]

Oh, and the CF readers, both the normal USB kind and the PCMCIA adapter kind for laptops, are available at any computer store and almost any camera store nowadays. The laptop one is a bit more expensive, but still cheap.

If you put the CD in the drive and it doesn't run immediately, try looking at it through the normal directory system, and find something like "Install.exe" or "Setup.exe"

If you're using a Mac, things might be a bit different, though.

[Cuilanië]

I'm tired, a little.

I did laundry tonight. I'd been meaning to do it since Tuesday night.

I also did the dishes. Should've done those yesterday.

Me? Procrastinate? Naawh. ;)

Thanks so much for your feedback on this, no, I'm not using this with a laptop or a mac. I'll get a CF card reader and plug it in the USB port. I'm expecting a digital software program in a few days which should make downloading a bit easier. The cable I have plugs the camera into TV/VCR port and then you can format and display the photos on screen and it also has a Zoom feature. Most of the features are within the camera which speaks 4 different languages and your memory cards are like negatives used to be. It's nice if your doing a presentation on a TV, then you just plug it into that and use the camera menu to move your pictures around and it has a zoom feature. Most of my shots are bugs, flowers, pests and diseases of plants, etc. so it's good for that. I think I'll need the normal CF reader with adaper for memory cards if i want to download photos to PC. Anyway, I just got one of the manuals downloaded and printed up from the Nikon website so I should be doing Ok with it soon as I finish wading thru all the info and working out the compatiblities. ;)

[Larrissa]

damned rainy day projects. the volume of rain still amazes me. it will not cease!

i did make some neat ass postcards though, featuring the dancing cat ^_^

im up too late again.

[Larrissa]

i need to sleep, but the caffiene prevents it

:blink: all my pain is my own fault. ow.

and what of rambling? im gonna go in another window and have me some.

[hammerquill]

If you live in Florida, you have to have a lot of rainy day projects.

When I used to visit my grandparents there (well, in Miami, which is a little different), it was weird if it didn't rain any given afternoon.

I've been close to a tornado, and through many earthquakes, but never been through a hurricane.

[hammerquill]

I see littlest-bee! How unusual. :wave:

I miss Laurasia and BreezyK and littlebird and Seusomon, and especially medeous. Haven't seen luckythirteenxxx recently, either.

I think I'm going to go get some stuff done this evening.

[littlest-bee]

Ha! Lurking. :ph34r:

It's early here (6.48am).

I need to wash my hair, my head is itchy.

[Lorrell]

1 Good morning (6:55 am) woke to clogs in the shower and the fixture is off, pretty soon I'll have to take pliers in there with me, not to mention the mold that is creeping in, ugh


2. Making tea to fuel up for road trip, the sky is looking kind of grey this morning, hope the rain gets delayed until late this afternoon when I'm coming back from USF.


3. I must pack up and be off for the west coast of Floriduh!

Another exciting episode in the wacky life of Lilac! I was wondering how she would continue the momentum begun with the rabbit cage and bird poop incidents.

One of the volunteer knitters is stalking me! She is calling and/or e-mailing several times a week asking questions I have already answered.

I am going to see Bridget Jones tonight!!!!

[velma]

hiya gwensmom!

it's snowing here today--really tiny flakes and some freezing rain. ugh!
i have the whole day to myself. what to do....
i'm hungry

[namelessgirl]

I have to work at noon and I DON'T WANT TO. whew okay, glad i got that out of my system. YOU CAN'T MAKE ME!!!! oops i had some leftover :P

the cats are being weird this morning. hopefully they didn't eat larrissa's fabric scraps (again).

i'm trying to sell these dumb books and of course the only nibble i've had is from someone in the UK which really screws up shipping costs and stuff. grr.

[velma]

what dumb books are you trying to sell, namelessgirl? is larrissa still in bed?

(Ok, those were questions, not facts!)

hello down there, sarahkate!

ok, my facts:

i think i might have to do another giveway; i still have too much stuff.
it's distracting; i have a hard time deciding what to work on and what to use when i'm working on it.
i have to pee.

[sarahkate]

~ Hello up there Velma! :wave:

~ It's snowing a little bit here too. I think this is the most snow we have had so far this season. Luckily it isn't sticking to the ground.

~ I need some new gloves/mittens. I tried a pair on in Target last weekend that felt like pillows on my hands... ooh they were so soft and squishy. I'm definitely going back to buy them this weekend.

[namelessgirl]

Larrissa has just recently gotten out of bed. I don't think she's awake yet though. But she'll be chaingaming shortly, don't worry.

Velma, I'm trying to sell books to pay bills. They're not dumb, I'm actually sad to part with them, but I'm just annoyed at the lack of responses so far. You can see them here (http://www.livejournal.com/community/used_books/79808.html) if you so desire.

I'm thinking: library, post office, drop off applications. Yep yep. And maybe donuts. Damn you Lilac for putting that in my head!! :D

[velma]

i bought a pair of gloves at Target (or, as my friends say, tar-jaay) last week--just in time for today's snow!

i keep sneezing this morning--maybe i'm allergic to snow!

hello to everyone else down there! :wave:

[Lilac]

Good morning Gwemsmom and Velma!

I don't have three random facts.

Just wanted to say Hi! :wave:

[velma]

nameless girl, would you believe that the books you have that i would want, i already have? i'm sorry you have to sell your stuff--you've been through some rough times already! :(

i should rake some leaves this morning, but i can't be bothered.

the neighbors are probably irritated with us, cause they're all obsessive about their lawns. bah!

[velma]

hiya lilac! how's it going today?

[Lilac]

Not bad, not bad at all!

[velma]

apart from your glasses, that is! :lol:

sorry, but it is kind of funny!

i shouldn't laugh--i can't even FIND mine! i'm such a sieve-brain!

[gwensmom]

I don't know what a pig nut is. I only know that Lilac has one.

I brought a bunch of different tea bags to work and mixed them all up. I never know what flavor I have chosen until I drink it. Today's was blueberry. MMMmmm.

I am still thinking about how much fun it would be to ride around with Velma.

[Lilac]

A pig nut is a hickory nut. We call them pig nuts up here. I don't know why. I mean...I don't see any pigs out in my yard snarfing them up!!

Gruff eats them, though.

Of course, Gruff eats anything.

[Larrissa]

i am alive, sorta. it took me for EVER to get out of bed, and then i am informed its 8:30 and i had more time to sleep :blink but now its too late

the cats are gross, they just argued over sharing a tortilla chip

i spent too long on those postcards, blah.

[Larrissa]

i cant eeeeven use my farotie smilie right! agh!

it was a near death experience finishing all the applications

my favorite of the postcards is the dancing kitty, flipping the world off. its lovely.

[velma]

gwensmom, maybe we can pick you up along the way!

good morning, larrissa!

in a couple of months or so, we'll be getting our kettle corn crap--samples for everyone!!
:yay:

[Larrissa]

morning everyone :)

im zombified :mellow:

i hope he didnt take the whole "i curse your name" in a bad way ...

[velma]

ok, i have to stop playing for a while and do something constructive--like go to the store and try again to find my glasses (not necessarily in that order)...

check the giveway thread, folks. velma's cleaning closet again!

[sarahkate]

~ I was wrong, the snow IS sticking... to the cars anyway. <_<

~ I got into a huge arguement last night with my boyfriend that started over the definition of "business ethics." :blink:

~ I have neurotic leaf-raking neighbors too Velma! And we haven't raked our leaves at all, so they are probably all pissed (the neighbors, not the leaves!). In fact, when I came home from work yesterday I noticed someone raked a pile of leaves (that I'm assuming were in the road) up to the sidewalk right in front of our house, so now I have to rake up THEIR pile. Those bastards.

[velma]

ha--they probably thought you LIKED leaves!

here's the link to my giveaway:

velma's giveaway (http://forums.nervousness.org/index.php?showtopic=12428)

[Larrissa]

:evil: AHAHAHAHAhaha. *cough* yeah.

must get ready

please dont make me.

[sarahkate]

~ Get ready Larrissa! Dammit! Do it now! Wait... what are you getting ready for?

~ Well I will show those neighbors. I will go around the neighborhood gathering everyones' lawn & leaf bags. Then I will dump them out all over my lawn and have a big leaf pile party. The neighbors will peak out their windows, watching in disgust as I jump around in huge piles of those devil-ish leaves, tossing them everywhere. Wahooo.

~ I don't require drugs or alcohol. I'm naturally wacky.

[Larrissa]

im turning in the mountain of work applications :'(

thats all.

[Larrissa]

and im three random facting while putting on my shoes

avoidance is a talent

[Larrissa]

there are so many little odd seeds that attach themselves to the bottoms of your pants and shoelaces here ...

i could identify which seeds cam from which plant

even if i tried reeeealy hard, like this :mellow:

thats also a face of concentration

[Christine_0701]

looks to me as if you're two random facting

get with the program, missy, we need THREE facts :P

despit getting only 7 hours of sleep, i feel more rested than after my 9 hours of sleep yesterda

[sarahkate]

~ Larrissa is a cheater!! Like Christine said.... THREE facts! It's the rule! We can forgive posting more than three facts, but less than three? No way!

~ Good luck to you in your job hunting. Working sucks, but working = money and money = good, therefore working really should = good.

~ Nonsense is fun.

*I'm the Queen of Typos today.

[Christine_0701]

yes, working = money and money = good, but one can not then justify that working = good (unless it's doing something you enjoy :P)

i make typo's ALL the time, I just usually make them in chat, and messengers, than on here

:o it's sunny out!!! the sky is clear and blue!!!! wow!

[zanna]

sarahkate, my dear sister!

i have not seen you in many a moons!

i just woke up and my hair looks like a bird's nest.

[Zhenechka]

I've just pissed away half the day.

I'm going to go and try to make up for that.

I'm going to Little India this evening!

[tanagee]

I had a dream about Gwen and Sarah last night. She showed up at my house driving a yellow Corvette stingray, and asked me to apply for insurance for Gwen. :wacko:

I made meat sauce and lasagne last night. My hubby is so impressed that for a mutt with no Italian heritage I make awesome 'gravy'.

I told him that until I start from scratch with fresh tomato's, I feel like I can't call it homemade.

[sarahkate]

~ Zanna... my most favorite sister in Georgia!!!! :D Seems like we are never on N'ness at the same time anymore. How is school? How's life?

~ Tana has made me want some lasagna. Mmm. Maybe I should make some this weekend.

~ Lunchtime. Time for BernieOs (http://www.annies.com/products/bernieos.html)!

[sarahkate]

~ I see Miss Rosie! How are you today?

~ I said I don't need drugs or alcohol because I'm already wacky, but I'm actually kind of in the mood for some liquor right now.

~ I haven't consumed any alcohol in about a year. The last time I drank I puked 6 times. Eww.

[littlest-bee]

Gah, spotted again! Hello Skate!

I'm eating a satsuma.

I just finished reading a book about hitchhiking through Japan. I want to travel more!

[Larrissa]

i love you, and you and you and you, oh and you too.

i have an interveiw at Taco Hell in two hours, yay! sorta. i asked the employees if i was making a bad decision by turning in the app, they smiled and said it was fine. they seemed like they could be trusted

we went to the hotsauce food place, and i was all gonna buy, but im an asshat and thought a dollar was a ten, thus sara bought.

we got james' third zine too, i havent read all of it

AND miss sara <_< got a letter from wonky ... good. that means they still live. actually i have never sent holly a letter and shes never sent me one. but theres been plenty of nonsense through the mail

ACK. i really hate interveiws.

[Larrissa]

interviews***********************

[namelessgirl]

I did indeed get a snazzy ass letter from Ms WonkyWalkingShoe and it totally made my day. We're penpals but have only exchanged three letters with months in between because we both have such crazy crazy lives. But she's lots of fun and I hope she thinks I'm lots of fun too.

I bought lunch but she put gas in my car so it's all the same. And luckily the gas was unleaded fuel and not caused by hot sauce or beans :P

We finally got the new computer at work and it rocks because the keyboard has that "new" feel to it. The only thing is that the MSN Messenger is dumb and doesn't tell me when I have new emails.

Hahaha! I would never drive a flashy yellow car! So did we get the insurance?

I just read an announcement in a Methodist church bulletin that there would be a baby shower for the mother of a yet-to-be-born baby girl whose name will be Zanna.

My supervisor did not show up today and I don't know where she is. Fortunately no one has asked.

I am overhauling our knitting program at work so it will be less of a pain next year.

400,000 people in my state are probably going to lose their health care coverage when TennCare goes away and reverts to regular medicaid.

I'm leaving and going to the kitchen and restaurant supply store to get some aluminum pans for casseroles. I need to sell some more to pay for those tires!

[namelessgirl]

i get irked when i see there are 45 guests online on the forums. who the heck are all of you?? and why aren't you signing up and exchanging mail with the rest of us dorks?

i've been a good girl at work today and gotten a lot done. i couldn't do the newsletter though because the new computer doesn't have the print shop software. saved! :D

ms larrissa hasn't shown up from her interview and now i'm getting nervous. it's been an hour and a half. i hope they didn't put her to work making gorditas right away!!!

[Zhenechka]

I am bored.

The books I need are still missing.

Inter-library Loans doesn't want to order them for me.

[kittymao]

I feel relieved. I just resigned from Target.

Becuase they wouldn't let me go to Washington for Thanksgiving.

I'm sure they'd prefer if I worked Wednesday and Friday and spent Thanksgiving eating a chicken Sandwich alone in my apartment while my family's 14 hours away.

[namelessgirl]

kittymao, good for you!! i worked at Target for about two months before i walked. they were such asshats.

larrissa found a total freaking haul of cool stuff and i missed it because i was working :(

this is my one thousandth post!!! i am so happy.

[Lorrell]

1. I have returned from my day trip to USF's Botanical Gardens (alive) :o


2. Driving over there we saw four major traffic accidents, two involving three cars with 2 fatalities, and the other two had some severe damages to both vehicles, including one car in the water, etc. :blink:


3 Coming home I saw three accidents, one involving a semi tractor trailer and another car upside down in a ditch. :blink:

1 Well Hot Damn Gal! And a big burrito goes to Miss Larrissa. The way you extol the glories of Hot Sauce, you know you are gonna have some fun with this! Get a Chihuahua and put out the cat!


2. Speaking of cats, Miss Kitty, you did the right thing with telling off Target. You've been trading your "family values" for dollars too long. It's a nice place to shop, but I wouldn't want to live there, especially on holidays.


3. I caught Laurie crying today over the devastation of some of the trees in the botanical garden. It's sad that the Monkey Puzzle Tree is gone, and there were all these shade-loving bromeliads scortching in the sunlight, waiting to be moved. I thought it looked pretty good, compared to Bok. I tried to give her some consolation in the fact that the Kapok was blooming beautiful and the bonsai was awsome. It's all going to take time to heal.

[Lilac]

edited to say that one should NOT post when one is angry and bleeding.

I love my child.

I even love those damn dogs.

[Larrissa]

existential angst just set in, quite suddenly and harshly. it could at least be polite and knock :(

we got postcards today

examining things that have nothing to do with me is so much more fun :rolleyes:

[Larrissa]

ooh that rolly guy looks waaaaaaaay too happy.

[Lorrell]

1. The camera batteries have died, guess I made them work too hard today.


2. J called to see what I'm doing, but it's my Friday night date with the Beau and I have some sirrius paperwork to do. :)


3 The calendar committee really screwed up the spelling on the 2005 calendars and now they must all be returned. It was pretty bad and it's squashed any notions I had of illustrating the cover. I really don't think I want to be involved with that committee. I enjoy my art and don't want to get stabbed in the back and denigerated by a bunch of people who spell "hole" W-H-O-L-E and know that it's the one they'll be visiting in the ground. :(

[Larrissa]

:yell:

:yell:

livejournal is acceptable, but that was NOT acceptable.

[gwensmom]

OMG Lilac what happened?

In one hour I will be on my way to the movies.

Ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ... bananaphone!

My kid caused a dogfight and when I stepped in to seperate them, I got bit. I'll live.

Especially now that he's grounded to his room for the rest of the evening! Ha!

What are you going to see?

[gwensmom]

Oh Lilac I am so sorry :( Not a great start to the weekend.

Gwensdad's dog has just walked over to me and presented his derriere to be scratched.

We are going to see Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason

[Christine_0701]

i had to wait for a half an hour in the cold because of the stupid bus driver

i gained 4 pounds the past 2 weeks <_<

what lovely well taken care of teeth you've got, Lilac, who's your dentist?

[gwensmom]

I am her dentist.

I got her those teeth at a gas station.

That's why she loves me so much. ;)

[Lilac]

Yep, Gwensmom is my dentist!

I highly recommend her!

I love my teef!

[Sirius]

I had my hair cut. Lopped off six inches. I fear putting it in a ponytail now. Not that I wear ponytails often.

I like four day weekends.

I have things I should be doing.

[Larrissa]

i think we all have things we should be doing :o

sara makes a damned good burrito

the sponge made my hand smell funny

[Lilac]

Soon Larrissa will be making a damned good taco bell brand standard burrito! :D

They do sell burritos there, right?

I'll bet she'll miss doing the hinge cut, though!

[Sirius]

i think we all have things we should be doing

Why don't we do them? No, really, why avoid them?

I've been doing the things I should be doing all day, so this is my not doing the things for a while time.

Then back to doing.

of course having 8,000 things half started is driving me crazy, but it's been one of those days when multi-tasking turns into just not finishing anything....

[gwensmom]

OMG Rustell post some pics of your new hair!

When my sponges smell funny I wash them in the dishwasher. After a while you just have to throw them away, though.

Aww LaRRissa what happened to the cake job?

[Christine_0701]

Yes, we want hair pics, Sirius!!

I should have a new red-streaked-hair pic tonight...i hope

I'm looking forward to a news story

[Lilac]

Hair pic, hair pics, hair pics!

We must have hair pics!

Sirius and Christine!!!

[Christine_0701]

lol. i have to wait 3 hours, then I can call mel and ask her if she can send it

it was taken last month

if she doens't know how, and kevin's not there, we'll have to wait....

[Larrissa]

if the cake job happens, taco hell will be ditched. i took the first offer ... :)

im gonna chant too

PICTURES!

[Lilac]

For some really good pictures, check out Larrissa's busy busy day!!


It's in the "Topics that don't seem to fit anywhere else" thread.


Yes indeedy, Larrissa had a very busy day! :lol:

[velma]

OK, Lilac--apparently I missed something. You got bit by a dog? And your son had something to do with it? First, glasses down the toilet, now this! You're too much, girl!

Speaking of glasses, I found mine. They were right---this is embarassing---in their case in my purse. Doh! :wacko:

I third (or is it fourth) the hair pics request!

[Lilac]

Don't feel bad about losing your glasses in your purse, Velma! I lost my cellphone and had the service shut off only to find it a couple days later on one of the dining room chairs. D'oh!


Yes, I am too much. Even for myself sometimes.


I guess that's why I'm not married.

don't feel too bad, i'll tell you a little story

my friend's dad (i'll just call him dad2) came home from work for lunch. he went into the living room, picked up his book, and put on his glasses...he put his book on the table. he went into the kitchen, got his soup, and sat down to read while he ate, but he couldn't find his glasses. Now his daughter, Mel, was watching this...and then he asked if she saw his glasses...she looked RIGHT at him, and said "no"

then they proceded to look around for them, and he stood up, looked into the living room by his chair to see if they were there, but it was a bit blurry, so he reached up, took off his glasses, and THEN it dawned on him, and he had a good laugh

[Larrissa]

such an asshat.

im going upstairs to plot revenge

i have his HOME address now, its his own fault. he lives with his parents and, um yeah. revenge.

[Helquin]

Lilac's life seems a lot more interesting than most of the reality TV shows I've seen...

I wonder if I should be smelling my sponges. I don't know if they smell funny or not. :huh:

Larrissa's Busy Day is definitely hootworthy. :lol:

[Christine_0701]

I don't use sponges, i've heard too much stuff about all the nasty bacteria growing in there

granted, not all cloths are cleaner

lean cuisine pizza is yummy

[Lorrell]

1. I'm charging up all these batteries for this camera. I have two chargers going, packed full of nickel cads....you would think I'm expecting another triple whammy hurricane or something.


2. This is what happens to you when you live in remote rural Floriduh.


3. Then again, I try to console myself by thinking of my :canada: friends that won't be able to get to the post office this winter.

[Sirius]

I will work on a photo op tomorrow. I haven't had my picture taken since I got it cut, and as it is piled on top of my head and I am in my pjs it isn't really the time.

Really though...I think it is only a truly noticable difference to me...as it ends up somewhere mid back as opposed to at my waist...

It is only 7:38pm here and I so much want to go to sleep. It physically and mentally feels like it must be atleast 2am....zzzzzzzz

[namelessgirl]

I have three tests on Tuesday as well as a 10 page paper due. I am just getting started. The biology exam alone is on ten chapters, none of which I have read. Damn my procrastination!!!!

Larrissa already went to bed. Weird. I'm sure she'll be back by like 3AM though.

I'm fighting the urge to go watch DVDs and knit. MUST STUDY.

[Sirius]

i am no longer in the top ten posters

i don't know if that is a good or bad thing

not only am i off the list...i'm 500 posts away

[Sirius]

Eighteen guest, 11 members, 2 anon. mems....


The Eighteen guests is, well, creepy in a way. All those people reading without giving up any information about themselves....

I suppose we should type something interesting enough to inspire them to share their names....or fake screen names...

[Lorrell]

I'm going to have to call a plumber tomorrow. :(


There is some sort of annoying leak going on in the shower. I just hope it's not in the wall and it's just a faulty fixture or something. Yeah right, it's always something!


Didn't they torture people by making them listen to the sound of constant dripping water....I wonder how I am going to sleep tonight...probably dream a wall of water is coming though the damn wall or worse yet, maybe it will. :blink:

[Zhenechka]

I was going to post pictures of Diwali in the Other Day thread but Photobucket won't let me upload anything.

The cat just licked the plate of Indian-sweet remants clean.

I want to see some hair pics too!

[Larrissa]

oh dear god.

i made revenge though.

so yeah. its okay.

[Helquin]

I thought she went to bed :huh:

This Fortune Teller LMAO is sucking up printer ink like a Disneyland ho, but it's gonna look so good when it's finally done.

I got fun books in the mail today. :) Art Noveau papers: even the dandelions look pretty! :lol:
