Errr, I slept on the train and drooled on the window then walked back to my place in the rain which was refreshing. I figure I don't need a shower cus ya know.. rain is the same thing.

Ooohh, when I got home I wander upstairs and there is some girl in my bed. Now.. normally I'd be all "Booooooooong!" but I was kinda thinking.. what the fu.... anyway, turns out she was a friend of my friend who was at this big party last night next door.. I'd said ya know they could use the spare room or something seeing as there would be nobody in the house I just didn't really expect to find somebody asleep in my bed at 5 in the evening.

She's in the spare room, hahaha, I turfed her out, said "Go ahead and sleep, I'm not bothered, but I wanna play some music." with any luck she'll wake up and cook something for me seeing as I'm still pretty hungover.

Working today, partially packed up a late Xmas gift for my cousin in Seattle. I'll probably come home later and start packing away Christmas stuff in some 18 gal. bins I bought yesterday. It's my first Christmas away from home and I actually have a good accumulation of Christmas decor to pack up for next year. It's kinda neat. :)

I try to bring in cracked crab every year & the other work friends will bring in a cake, salad, cheese and bread. I hope I can find some good crab at a decent price. i may have to go to a chinatown seafood market for some fresh stuff.

I went to the grocery store already this morning (at 5:30 a.m.) I love going when nobody is out or trying to run me over with their shopping cart.

I have a doctor's appointment this afternoon to get a new prescription for my insulin. I don't forsee any problems with that. but you never know with a new doctor. I'm hoping for peace and tranquility. ;D

Got laundry to do later as well. So my day is pretty much planned.

lol um...little piece of chicken (not with any bones) and they usually have some kind of sauce on them - I like the ones with a "mild" hot sauce and some with a spicy garlic/butter parmasian sauce on them.

Mainly it's a bar food kind of thing. Very messy (cause you eat them with your fingers) but never-the-less very good. Tonight they cost 45 cents each.

I'm exactly the same way and I despise eating anything off of a bone. I leave half of the meat behind.

What is Alexander Technique?
It's a type of therapy like osteopathy. It uses gentle manipulation to realign your bones/muscles and then re-educates you in the way you do things, like bend or lift to stop it happening again.In my case my pelvis was tipped up at one side and tilted forward, I spent years with back pain going to an osteopath to have it cracked back in place only for it to move out of place again a few days later. Someone recommended The Alexander Technique to me and in just half a dozen sessions my pelvis was sorted and has been that way ever since! I now go every 8 to 10 weeks just to sort of maintain things.It's a great stress buster too.

All you do is take chicken breasts, cover them with 2 cans of mushroom soup (or 1 mushroom, 1 cream of chicken), 1 can of mushrooms, a few handfuls of shredded cheese (any kind) and spices of your choice (I use garlic powder, and Italian seasoning)...and let it cook on low for about 6-8 hours. Then, you serve it over either noodles or rice....so easy, and SO yummy-o! ;)

About to have lunch in a bit. I am working today, then after work I'm going about 25 minutes away from home to go to my college and buy my schoolbooks for my first week back to school (it starts next Tuesday for me).

Over the weekend, my boyfriend and I stayed the night at my moms with my brother and his fiance who were visiting from San Francisco. We were having a late Christmas gift exchange. My brother got me an Ipod Nano with 4GB!! I was SO shocked. I didn't expect such an expensive gift! I also got a $25 gift card from his fiance to purchase iTunes online.

It's not my smarts, that's the problem. It's my lack of experience. I have the educational requirements for a lot of the jobs I've found, but none of the work experience. I had too much of a heavy load in my last couple years and I couldn't work during school. I guess that's my own fault.

Well, that's okay. You can get an entry level job, and work up the ladder. I see many people at my own job who do this (who have the education, but not the experience) and they get there pretty quickly due to their hard work and determination and dedication to the whole of the company.

you'll get a job. i was just talking to my supervisor. I violated the code and asked her how old she is. she's 21, going on 22. Not much work experience, but is a Stanford graduate and got hired at AT&T on their fast-track managment program, so she'll be here a year then they'll ship her off somewhere else and eventually get her a higher supervisory position. maybe check the telecommunications company in your area AT&T - Georgia. tell them Mikey sent you ;)

Education > Work in the long run, but in the short run you're doing the right thing in looking for a headhunter to do the looking and placement for you. I had to have that done too at some point because despite having a couple of degrees I didn't have work experience outside of academia = screwed. Start at the lower levels and work your way up, that's the key...and then you can get a cush job or use your $$ to form your own business and make your own hours! :D

it is fun. We play Texas Hold Em and I'm pretty good at it. Each time we play the winner not only wins a little bit of money, they also win a rubber bracelet kind of like the Live Strong ones that Lance Armstrong has out to support cancer research. I've won 3 bracelets, my wife has won 1, my other friends have all won more but we're all pretty equal players. There's luck involved in getting good cards. I hope Diane wins tomorrow night because she has not won at any card party we've held at our house yet so I'm pulling for her.

I'm at work and our cafeteria is down, so I've got no soup. And, when you're a vegetarian, certain soups are avoided with beef/chicken broth. But, it's cool. I've gone another route. I've been drinking citrus Gatorade, I cut up an orange this morning to eat, and also I brought some regular food for fulfillment. I may leave work early, but I'm gonna try to pull one more hour in.

When I was working, I used to have a "stash" in my desk-cup of noodle soups, beef jerky, cans of Vianna sausages (well, I know you are vegetarian but I'm not), Little Debbie's, etc. etc. I never knew when those munchies would hit. ;D ;D

You're right! I also have a stash - I have some macaroni and cheese, chocolate, some veggie beef jerky, and for awhile I had a bunch of gummie bears :0)

The gym is packed full of tables with guests consuming massive quantities of dungeness crab. The mess left on the tables & floor is staggering, but with a lot of help it's now spic & span. I gassed up Julie's car for her, washed it at the car wash, came home, mowed my front & back yards. Then I went pulled out a box of cassette tapes from storage in my garage because I was sure I had The Raspberries on cassette & I found it. This evening we took my inlaws out to dinner to Claim Jumper. Now sitting down to a cup of hot tea and some internet fellowship.

So far I balanced the check book and paid some bills :(.

No school for my daughter today so were going to the store to buy pants for her, if I can find any that fit her properly (It's frustrating because she's built just like me and most of the jeans are cut very slim. Boys jeans fit her better but she doesn't want to wear them, so who knows if we'll find any).

Later if it doesn't rain, we'll probably head to the park so the kids can ride bikes.

I have the exact opposite problem with my middle guy, he's VERY skinny and most boy's jeans that are long enough are too big in the waist, but if I get them to fit in the waist, they're too short :P We usually end up at Old Navy for him because theirs seem to be a bit longer and have adjustable waists ;) I can't vouch for their girl's pants, though :-\\

Maybe her parents didn't tell her to break up with you. Maybe she did it on her own. Don't blame her parents for her actions unless you know for a fact they were behind them. If she's doing this at their behest, she's extremely immature and not worthy of your time, but then again we've only been telling you that for months now.

Yup 80-90 mph winds here as well, plus rain. I was trying to board up some of the attic and insulate it with fiberglass and fascia boards, but it's no use, although it's fairly well sealed, there are still some small gaps to the outside and the wind gets in and everything goes nuts.

^ and ^^ It is possible to work and have young children you know! I never even considered stopping work when my daughter was born 8 years ago. I did think about maybe going part time for a while but then I changed jobs when I was on maternity leave so the option wasn't really there. My old job was quite timetabled and predictable, this one isn't.

I know that it's possible...but if I choose to put Vaughn in childcare while I worked...I might as well not work. The money it costs to send a child to daycare is insane. A friend of our family sends her granddaughter (whom she is raising) to daycare during the day (Monday thru Friday) because there's nobody else to watch her. She pays a TON of money in just a week's time...I don't know how she does it. I know I could find a part-time job working evenings, but I don't want to do that because when Chris comes home from work...he's exhausted and wants to rest...so I can't imagine him keeping an eye on Vaughn while I am out working for the night. I don't want to end up working weekends, because that's the time that my family usually does things and gets together. Ideally, it would be good for me to find a Mon-Fri job during the day....but I can't do that until Vaughn starts school.

I'm not sure how much childcare is over there, but in most places in the States, it's ridiculous (at least for a decent one) and very few companies have on-site daycare. I did work when my 2 oldest were younger, but not when my youngest was little. I was fortunate enough to find a good daycare that wasn't outrageously priced because it was located in a small town after my grandmother was no longer able to babysit for me. The "blessing in disguise" was when I got "laid off" because the company I was working for was moving our division to another office in another state. At the same time, hubby got a promotion so there was no need for me to work. My best friend, however, was actually losing money by working because she was only making a little bit more than she was paying in daycare. Once you figured in the money for gas/insurance/food/etc, it was actually costing her $50/WEEK to work :o

Hopeing I can get to work! All the trains were cancelled due to the weather. I got the last train out of Oxford last night at 7.45pm as you can imagine it was ram packed. Got home to find we had had a power cut and my knots had held but the washing line had snapped and the fence was flapping about all over the garden. ::) We managed to get it secure again, no I just need the mystery fence theif and replacer to come and mend it and I'll be happy! ;D

It's a safe place for kids that has tons of children's books, tables and chairs, puzzles, an area that they have storytelling. It makes it much easier when the mother wants to look for a book and doesn't want to disturb the other library goers who do not appreciate an active 3 year old boy running around.

Frightened? What are you talking about? Was it because I said "safe place"? What I meant was this, I'm not letting my kids run around a library, they are in an area that I feel comfortable leaving them so that I can look at books.

I read books to my children every day. My daughter has the best reading score in her class. They love books.

Edit: OK found his obit online, there was 7 years difference between them, and she *was* born on Friday the 13th and he apparently (after consulting the online perpetual calander) was born on a Wednesday. Oh well...guess I can be right all the time. (But once in awhile sure would be nice on occasion) ::)

Yes, I know all about the perpetual calendar; there is a cycle as to how often the dates repeat whatever weekday they fall on. I memorized the pattern when I was about 8 years old.

It can be useful in some regards...like, to know what day of the week you were born (in fact, I think there's a thread about this buried far down)...or what day of the week a certain day will fall on next year or whenever. I'll see if I can go find it. Ah yes, here it is.

I need to do that more. When we moved to Indiana, I knew that I wanted to start searching for my grandfather's relatives. He was from a little town in Southern Indiana, so we took a trip down there and found a bunch of my relative's graves.

Who's she? Can't I just get Jeneane?
you'd know her from the Sam Kinison video Wild Thing. she was Jim Bakker's assistant that sued him for sexual harassment then next year she posed for Playboy. Jeneane is cool, but Jessica has the right attitude and is much hotter.

Well I've left himself dying in bed. Strangly, as he is a male, he doesn't do the 'dying of flu' thing whenever he is ill. Infact he's one of those ones who goes 'no really I'm fine' shortly before collapsing. So I know if he's unable to get up then he really is sick, which means by this time next week I'll have it, just in time for my first batch of social activities this year. ::)

Thanks you guys. I'm actually really nervous this time, and I don't know why. I keep having dreams that I'm on the Titanic and it's sinking, and I'm totally paranoid about the airline losing my luggage. I know I'm probably being ridiculous, but have you ever just felt uneasy about a trip?
Yeah, I hate the whole airport baggae thing and always get in a complete panic about that.

Yeah, I was thinking of you when I posted that. I'm glad you were ok! I'm not scared so much for the actual flight, just the baggage. My sister is really scared of flying. Last time we flew she wanted to wear a crash helmet on the plane! ;D My dad finally told her that if we crashed, the helmet probably wouldn't help...which only made things worse. Anyway, as soon as we have all of our luggage and everyone is on the ship I will be able to relax. It's just up until that point that I'm freaking out.

PM me the link to your MySpace - I'd love to see it!

I think it's under my profile. Some of the blogs are friends only though because I talk about Rice Cube. ;D

Tell your sister these tips:

If the plane crashes, your chances of survival are better if you sit in the back of the plane.
Count the rows between where you're sitting and the emergency exits.
Follow all safety instructions on the cards and pay attention to the flight attendant's instructions.
About 95% of the people survive the initial crash, it's usually the fire afterwards that kills everyone.
You have about 90 seconds to get off a crashed plane before the smoke and fire kill you.

I doubt those will comfort her, but it's always good to know if you're paranoid (like me ;D) about flying.

i was once on a 757 flying to england and one of the engines went out. (the 757 only has two.) had to make an emergency landing in gander newfoundland. it was kinda... spiritual. when the plane landed everybody started chattering with each other like it was a cocktail party. cuz we were glad we didn't die.

statistically, i read youre more likely to be killed by donkeys than die in a plane crash. most people interpret this to mean that flying is safe. i take it to mean that somewhere, unbeknownst to us, people are being massacred wholesale by donkeys.

;D

The very first time I flew, the flight was delayed because there was a crack in one of the engines. The airline came back on and said they weren't able to fix it, but we were going to fly anyway. It was slightly scary, but we lived.

You are like a million more times likely to die in a car accident than a plane crash, and I drive every single day without being scared. I'm never going near a donkey again though...

LMFAO.

Statistics also say that if it were possible, you could fly every day for 19,000 years and not be in a crash.

I flew for the first time when I was 23. It wasn't bad at all, and I don't remember being as scared as I was when we flew last month. On the way to California, I took Dramamine and had two screwdrivers. On the way home, I took a Tramadol. And I was still scared sh*tless. I don't know if I'll ever fly again. :-\\

Driving is certainly more hazardous, what with all the jackasses on the road who talk on phones, apply makeup, eat....anything but actually DRIVE. However, I think it has to do with control. You have no control over the plane, so you freak out. With a car, you're driving, so whatever happens is on you and your abilities to navigate around idiots.

I fly quite a bit and had some fun ones. Flew on September the 11th 2002. ;D

Also I was once sitting in the deperature lounge at O'Hare (Thankfully I'm preferred with AA so I get to go in to the business lounge in some places, O'Hare is one of them). Now.. first plane is the one we're all supposed to get on (flying down to Dallas). There is however a problem with one of the engines, so they go and get a new plane. About 2 hours delayed now and they get this second plane.. well now it turns out there is a problem with that as well. Getting another plane took a further 3 and a half hours, then everyone boarded and they said there was a 'minor' problem with the third plane. I like flying and don't panic about it.. but by now even I was nervous. Anyhow, the plane finally left about 7 hours late which SUCKED!! but it didn't crash. That was totally freaky though, they had problems with 3 planes. :-\\

I flew home about 3 months after 9/11. I'm usually surprised when I'm NOT searched. I pretty much start reading and zone out, and every now and then I look out the window to see if I can identify the state I am over at the moment.

you get reminded when you crash, and the plane stops while you continue to go 500 mph.

That's why everyone should be wearing crash helmets.

Once when I was drunk I dropped a bowling ball on my hand and my ring finger exploded. It was pretty awesome. I ended up waking up later that night in my roommate's bed because apparently I used the wrong bathroom and then collapsed in his bed thinking it was my bed.

The following Monday, the doctor was impressed with the makeshift splint I had fashioned out of an old pen clip and masking tape.

I usually bowl less than 50 but sometimes I have bouts of brilliance and bowl a 95 :D

My Aunt tried to get me to move in with my cousin once with the idea "You both like bowling." .. 'No, I don't.' "Of course you do, he goes every week." 'He may well do, but I don't.' "I've seen you go bowling before!" 'No, you've seen me come home from being at the bowling alley.. drinking.. and playing cards.'
my favorite things about bowling, in no particular order:

1. the pitchers of crappy domestic beer
2. watching hot chicks bowl

4. the arcade games

we had a guy fired from his job for viewing Porn on company computer. My company has a zero tolerance policy for "inappropriate non company business related material". He did end up getting his job back after about 2/3 of a year. The union fought for his reinstatement and he is back.

You know you have a problem when you have to whack it at work, and you download porn to help.
which is a good defense if you get caught, you can say you have an addiction and need medical help like chemical dependancy.

I registered Jason's Cabbage Patch Kid.

Yeah, don't ask....

I do have to bitch though. I remember when I had mine back in the 80's, you had to fill out the paperwork and mail it in. Then they'd send you all this cute crap in the mail. Now, you get the certificates with the dolls and you just register it online. No fanfare, no, "Hey, look what I got in the mail!" It's kinda gay now.

If you go to Barnes and Noble you can usually get a student discount, plus they tend to have more buying power than a lot of smaller schools AND! they sell used books.

I used to save about 20% more than my friends 'cus I'd get my books there. Also the company I worked for had a deal where you got 10% off any purchase from there. I'd usually save quite a bit.

There is no reason to buy your textbooks at the campus bookstore. They're marked up so high, it's ridiculous. I saved about 80% of what I would have spent my senior year by buying my books at half.com.

I never had a problem with availability, either. People should take advantage of the ways there are to save money, especially if you're a college student.
Same here. Most of the books I got were new (some were supposed to be used, but came wrapped in cellophane and hadn't ever been opened by the looks of them......even some of the used ones on half.com were more expensive than the new ones so I just went ahead and got the new ones) and they were STILL about 1/2 of what the bookstore wanted for the used copies :o I just went through my invoices and I spent about $200 in total (I had to get 2 books at the bookstore because I couldn't get them anywhere else because they're published by the school and I couldn't find them anwhere else because they include stuff specific to the class they're for).....if I had gotten all of them at the bookstore, I would've spent over $500 :o

I think it depends a lot on the major too...a lot of the science books are recycled year-in and year-out so you can buy off former students for a better deal than at bookstores. But if you're in a humanities, that's like 20 books per class and that really adds up.

When we lived in Chicago, sometimes we'd get some stuff at Aldi's. Not the bulk of our groceries mind you, but some things. Mostly crap food, like potato chips and frozen stuff.

Our Aldi store has really revamped their merchandise....we shop there all the time..and we literally fill up an entire cart for less than $100.

My elementary school shopped there, so all the stuff we ate for lunches was stuff I'd see there. I'd get all nostalgic for the pizza puffs. God, I miss those.

Michael Jackson is from Gary, so the use of the term "penises" is very correct here.

Totally true story alert: When my mom, sister and I drove down to Georgia for good waaaaaaay back in 2001 , and we got lost in Gary. Instead of taking 57 to 24 to 75 to 285 like we do now, we decided to take 65 instead, which would take us through Indy. So he we are, 3 white women in a station wagon loaded with our personal belongings that didn't go on the moving truck.....lost in Gary. There was a detour off the Skyway and we didn't know that what we were driving WAS the detour. We come up to this street and my mom has to choose going left or right, she goes left....we get back on the right road.

Gary is alright as long as you never get out of the car. The Skyway is still a ripoff.

Ah, okay. I figured you were a bit east-ish of Raleigh/Durham.

I don't know. The one time I went into an Aldi's, I was really unimpressed. I suppose I could give it another shot. Maybe I'll go to a different one. There are like 5 or 6 in this area.

They are soooo cheap! I shop in Lidl all the time now and it saves me a fortune 8) I believe both Lid and Aldi are German companies, founded by brothers - one store each.

I'm there as long as food items don't taste cheap or flavorless, and there are some products where quality is a must.

The quality is actually very good - you just have to get over the snob factor of shopping in such a cheap, no-frills supermarket. I can handle it...

Today I'm going to tidy my house and hide anything remotely interesting, becuase my ex will be staying here for two nights while I have my surgery (tomorrow morning). I'm sure he'll be taking the opportunity to have a good old look around the house while I'm out of it! I'm not paranoid, but I know he's having me watched.....That cat he left here has a cat-cam on her collar, y'know! ;D

I had never heard of them before Monday. I was talking to a girl on base who is from Michigan and she was talking about that store. Now this conversation. Weird how that happens.

Actually, they have a (at least they used to) brand of bacon that's (I think) Bar S or something that's pretty darned tasty....their pre-made burgers aren't bad either, but those are all so processed, I don't think you have to worry about anything. Hubby's all excited because he loves their BBQ potato chips ::)
