Way to go. You rock girl!  And it is exciting. I just had to call the cops, as i heard my neighbors car alarm go off and then as I looked out the window, I saw a car drive off with it's lights off, obviously the criminals. Talked to my neighbor as he was outside inspecting for damage * hopefully the police will patrol our quiet neighborhood. I still have somewhat of an adrenaline rush going. and I hope they catch those bastards  >:(

Wow. Reminds me of when the guy at the end of my parents street heard this massive crash and looked out to see a car had hit his wall. He rushed out to help the guys involved and then realised it was his car!

I'm looking forward to a nice month and working at Pathmark.I'm going to start making up a "budget envelope" and put all 100 dollar bills in one and the other 20's and 10's in another so that way It can be separated.It's better for me so I won't be confused.

Okay, I'm going straight to hell when I die:

Meredith Viera is interviewing the kid who won the National Spelling Bee and my first thought was "OMG! That kid is such a dork."  Right down to the "Louis Skolnik" laugh ;D

I'm feeling very tired, as Vaughn had me up a little after 6:00 this morning. It's not even 10:30 and it feels like it should actually be around 1 or so.

I slept late this morning cuz I have nowhere to go today. I needed the rest because May was a hectic month for me. :o

So what happened to your neighbor's car.  Did they hit it or steal something?

I thought I'd make this month's thread for a change of pace.. lost by about 12 hours, looks like.

Finals are done.. feeling sick.

One evening, we were watching t.v. and we heard a big BANG and the house shook. About 2 seconds later, we heard something that sounded like rain but it only lasted a few seconds. We found out that some idiot rammed his truck into a utility pole right outside our house (the raining sound we were was glass hitting the ground). He did it purposely because he was upset with his girlfriend which didn't make any sense. Now if he rammed HER truck into a pole because he was upset with her, that would make more sense.  :D ;D ;D

The JUNHO is making me nervous. *Bites nails*

My father finally called Tree Service to cut our tree down after 50 years and now what's left is a big stump.It was getting very old and collecting bugs anyway.Now,I can see across the street. ;D

Geez. ::)  A few years ago a guy in Idaho killed his wife...chopped off her head and drove around with it.  Then decided he wanted to kill himself so he crashed into an oncoming car.  Turns out he killed everyone in the car he hit, but he survived.  And his wifes head.....out the window.

Put the binoculars away. ;)




I could even see the neighbor's daughter. ;D ;)

That would have been confusing  :o  did the perpetrators leave the scene of the crime?

I am the watch dog for my hood.  I don't know if there was any damage, but they gained access to 2 vehicles and the alarm scared them off. Police came by, & I told them about the car I saw and asked him to patrol more than usual if they could. One of my softball pals is on the dept. so I dropped his name.

... Please don't tell me she's under 18.


She's 7, isn't she?

I wrote a song about it.

It's called DECAPITATED SPOUSE HEAD SUICIDE MISSION!


Angry at my wife I don't know what to do,
I gather up my implements and plan my next move,
Giving it the thought a long term plan requires,
I finally decide it's her time to expire.

HACK OFF HER HEAD! HACK OFF HER HEAD!
TAKE MY SAW AND HACK OFF HER HEAD!

I hold her down with my knee on her back,
Push her head down and begin to hack,
With a blunt rusty saw I cut through her spine,
As long as she's dead she'll always be mine.

HACK OFF HER HEAD! HACK OFF HER HEAD!
TAKE MY SAW AND HACK OFF HER HEAD!

I get in my truck with her head by my side,
I feel no remorse I just want us to die,
Embracing these feelings of intense suicide,
I start up my truck and we go for a ride.

HACK OFF HER HEAD! HACK OFF HER HEAD!
TAKE MY SAW AND HACK OFF HER HEAD!

I spot a young family that's coming towards us,
Like Lynyrd Skynyrd they should have took the tour bus,
My blood lust rises as I see their cute young faces,
I catch the Father's eyes and he knows his life is hopeless.

HACK OFF HER HEAD! HACK OFF HER HEAD!
TAKE MY SAW AND HACK OFF HER HEAD!

I smash in to them at 90 miles an hour,
Glass reigns down like a sick death shower,
One child impaled upon the steering rack,
The other in two pieces laying in the back.

HACK OFF HER HEAD! HACK OFF HER HEAD!
TAKE MY SAW AND HACK OFF HER HEAD!

I crawl from my truck and survey the wreckage state,
With my last ounce of strength I start to masturbate,
By killing them I knew I could survive,
I lust to kill again, Dead Spouse Suicide!

Well at least he found time to masturbate. ;D

.. Ok. I am the only one that finds this funny right?


Probably.  I find some kind of sick humor in the fact that her head flew from the car, but the fact that the guy killed the people in the other car is all wrong.

I think if it was my family in the car, I'd be devastated, then they'd mention a decapitated head flying out the car.. and I'd start laughing. I seriously believe that, in no way, shape or form, is a decapitated head, flying out of the window.. on an Idaho highway.. not funny.

They usually do. I think If I did all that, I'd probably have to jerk off just to relieve some tension.

JUNHO?

Your meter's a little bit off, and although I know you're going for some grotesque parody, the blunt simplicity of this takes away from all the mystery that could have been. I admire your venturing off into humor while being really morbid, what with the masturbating part, but I think that from now own, you should leave somebody else to the songwriting.

I give these lyrics a 4/10.

I am. Now I can look down on you! Yay.

You haven't looked at me that way in years.
You dreamed me up and left me here.
How long was I dreaming for?
What was it you wanted me for?

You haven't looked at me that way in years.
Your watch has stopped, and the pond has cleared.
Someone turn the lights back on.
I love you 'til all time is gone.

You haven't looked at me that way in years,
But I'm still here.

I originally heard the story on the news, but here's an article about it if you feel so inclined.  And want a good laugh at the way they talk about the head.

S'about time.

So, after 2+ Years, and a fight with my parents, I'm finally looking for an apartment in Shippensburg. I already have 3 applications in for jobs that are identical to the one I have now, so hopefully I'll get one of them. I'm ready for a change of scenery.

You poor thing...having to wake up to Howard's masturbation.

Having a decent day.. discovered a bit of bad news, but I'm going to have band practice and I'm about 200 dollars away from all the equipment I need to buy, so I'm hard-pressed to get mad about some unfortunate circumstances and events.

I always find time to masturbate. ;D


... I didn't think you could surprise me with any of your comments anymore...

No problem!  ;)

I'm having a good day.Robin wants to work around my schedule so what we're going to do tomorrow is meet before work and try to meet after work depending on the weather cause they said showers and thunderstorms in the forecast for later tomorrow night into Monday morning.I really appreciate everything that she's been doing lately with working around my schedule and that helps a lot. :)

... I didn't think you could surprise me with any of your comments anymore...


You're honestly surprised?

Personally.. I saw it coming.

Err... so to speak.

Started buying furniture and kitchenware for my nonexistent apartment today, at the thrift store. I would have bought a lot more, but, alas, I lack a truck or large vehicle to haul said stuff. I'm going to refurnish the stuff I bought, and so far, my house is going to look like it came right out of the late 60s. It's awesome.

Great band practice.. second song is written, very proud of both of our first two.

It's almost 9:30 PM where I am right now...and I'm feelin' kinda hungry. So I'll be gettin' off the 'puter soon.

Ours starts at the end of this week, and I'm already feeling a little restless. Can't wait to get things going I have planned this summer, though.

I'm in a panic right now...I was just about ready to rinse the dye out of my hair and the water is off!!  The tub was still full from earlier, so I used that and a couple of bottles of cold water!!  :o :o

I might be bald tomorrow.  :-\\ :o

The day was pretty good at Pathmark except for a little light rain and drizzle in the mid afternoon but what a day it was. :P

the day was beginning ok. but then there was a little glitch which turned in to a big deal and now i'm just bummed.

What was it?


I went to some car lots today.

I'm being overly picky, I've seen several good vehicles, but I'm determined to find something I actually want.

I realize I'm not going to get the 323i that I wanted for less than $8000, so I've shifted my gaze and am now checking out Camry's and such like.

OMG  That is a bad situation.  I'm sure a couple extra minutes won't hurt it.

OMG  That is a bad situation.  I'm sure a couple extra minutes won't hurt it.


It's now 10 o'clock and the water just came back on, luckily the rinse job I did earlier seemed get out all of the dye.  I'm just happy that my lazy husband didn't let the water out of the tub earlier or I would have been screwed.

Just don't tell him that his slacking off helped you avoid a tragedy.  He'll probably use that story everytime you get into an arguement about him not doing something. ::) ::)

What happened to your hair? :o

I'm just glad It's my day off at Pathmark cause today it's going to rain just about all afternoon but on Wednesday the sun will come back to return with the temperatures in the low 80's.

I was going to try and work today...then it rained. we don't work in the rain so...i'm home again!

I just found a very old book at work about a village in Yorkshire where I used to live. On describing the village the author says it is 'situated on The Great North Road' and has a peculiarly salubrious air'! Well it made me laugh.  ;Dl

time to go out and run errands.

I told my parents less than a week ago I wanted to have some kind of therapy or something for depression, and I just got a letter from San Diego telling me about their right to disclose information about things like my mental health.  I don't know what that's about...

Who said that they have the right to disclose info and to whom? Depending on who, I believe you have the right to say that you don't want that. You may want to look into it.

Only if you're a threat to yourself or others, even if you're under 18.  Told to me by the therapist of someone who was under 18 at the time.

Yes, I believe like Rhonda said(only if you are a threat to yourself or others).  Think about the VA Tech guy...probably situations like that. 

I'm sure you have nothing to worry about.  Unless you plan on becoming President. :P

I'm feeling a bit nervous...tomorrow is Vaughn's kindergarten screening at his school. I have no idea what to expect...so you guys who have already been through it with your kiddos...please give me a head's up!!  He is such a strong-willed child...that if he gets it in his mind that he doesn't want to do something....it's very hard to make him...I have this horrible scenario in my mind about tomorrow..and I hope I am totally wrong. :D

It's true in some situations... but not, like, where they can make you wear a sign or something.

What it means if you're determined to be a threat to others, their next-of-kin will be informed.. and if you're a threat to yourself, your parents will be informed. You can say whatever you want, but if you threaten self-violence they tell your parents, and if you threaten others with violence they tell the people.

But.. why did San Diego call you?

Oh, I just went through this.  I'm not sure if all the schools are the same, but out here they just gave them an eye test and maybe hearing (can't remember for sure on the hearing)  They wanted to see if they knew their colors, alphabet, rhyming words, etc...  They also wanted to see if they could bounce a ball correctly and balance on one leg and jump.  I guess to see if they have normal coordination and they checked to see if they had all shots.  Aside from the short wait, I think the screening was over in like ten minutes.  They had Brooke go through the stations without me, so maybe if they do that with Vaughn he'll behave better for the people doing the test...they're really good with the kids.

Ya, I think they will have Vaughn go without me too....he should be better w/o me...sometimes I think he gets embarrassed when I am with him.  I hope he is okay.....did your daughter go to pre-school?  Vaughn never went, I work with him at home on a lot of stuff....but I just hope he is prepared enough...if they told me that he wasn't ready for kindergarten I think he would be so upset. Thanks for the info Chrissy! :)

hahahaa...yes, he is. It took a LONG while with him...but it finally happened about a year ago (fully trained).

My daughters went to preschool for about 7 months.  They went MWF for 2 1/2 hrs a day, so they weren't there for long.  I think what they really learned from pre-school was how to play with other kids.  They taught them some alphabet, a letter each week, but mostly it was just for the kids to play and express themselves with art or whatever.  I'm sure he will have no problem being ready.  If there are some things he is weak in, they should let you know so that you can work with him over the summer.  For instance, Brooke has trouble with lower case alphabet and rhyming words.  So they asked me to help her in those areas.

Brooke used to do that with her alphabet.  Everyday I would go over three letters.  Sometimes she would be fine and remember them and other times she would act like she didn't remember them or she wouldn't answer me at all.  I guess it was a phase we had to work through.  They also sell these neat dry erase books at Toys R Us and Barnes and Noble.  They can practice writing the numbers or letters and they also have some activities.  I have also bought some of the regular number and letter activity books from Wal-mart.

that's how Vaughn is sometimes too. I know that he knows things, but he will be stubborn and not answer me. I have some workbooks that I've been trying to go over with him as well..I hope it helps!

Feels great to be all done with final exams now!!! :D :) 8) I think I did pretty well on mine.

Best of all, my last lab assignment for this class had no defects, so I got a good grade on it.

Excuse my meandering thoughts, but it’s getting late.
And with the time goes my alerted state of mind.
And parallel to the feelings you’ve brought, I’ve felt a little hate.
But enough of that for now, my brain needs time to unwind.

So with this little bit of information, I leave you for the night.
I hope you dream of me and the memories our minds have captured.
And as you wonder if I’m about to leave you, I might…
But if I do, it’s only because you fail to keep me enraptured.

I can’t say you make me feel completely satisfied,
But how about you let us both catch a few winks?
I guess the important thing is that you deeply tried,
But I can’t enjoy you without having a few drinks…

If you wake up tomorrow morning,
Only to find me missing from your bed,
Don’t spend the next few weeks in mourning,
Just go find a man who likes you, instead.

Well...today was Vaughn's kindergarten screening...it went very well!  At first Vaughn was a bit apprehensive about leaving me (to go with the teachers to the different rooms for screenings)...but then he was ok.  He ended up doing really well, and told me that he had LOTS of fun and is excited for kindergarten! What a relief!! ;D :D

Oh, that's good to hear!  I'm glad everything went smooth. :)

oh, me too! I was so worried...but it went really well. They were talking about how they have a developmental kindergarten for kids who are a bit behind, or maybe have early birthdays (which Vaughn does)..and I was sure that he may have been recommended for that....but he wasn't...he was put in the regular kindergarten class...I was so happy! :)

YAY!!  So the issues you've been dealing with are probably normal for that age.  And I'm sure all the work you've been doing with him helped him to do so well.

Yes...I want to continue working with him on his numbers, writing his letters, and working on his name some more...stuff like that.

Congrats Erin :)

I remember Kindergarten,That was 28 years ago.

Congrats for Vaughn, Erin!

I know we were concerned with Teela, upon her Kindergarten entry....but mainly for her social skills.
We worked VERY hard on her education, pretty much since birth.

Also, remember what they say: The first 5 yrs. of a child's learning determines how they learn for the rest of their life.

I would say that you & Chris are doing OK, if Vaughn's considered OK.

I'm happy to hear all went well.

If you're working with him he probably knows more than some kids in the class, I'm sure he will do so good in Kindergarten. 

I was amazed at how behind some of the kids in Megan's class were.  One little girl didn't even know how to hold a pencil correctly.  :-\\

You will not believe how much he'll learn in Kindergarten.  It's nothing like when I went to school, they learn to read, they do math and loads of other stuff.  Megan is already reading second grade books.  :o  I remember playing, coloring and signing in Kindergarten.  ;D

She also couldn't use scissors and didn't know how to spell her name, I'm sure you know your name and I bet you can cut paper.  ;D

thanks for the well wishes guys...karma all around! :)

I remember Kindergarten,That was 28 years ago.

For me it was 21, almost 22 years ago. In fact, this date in 1986 was the day I finished kindergarten. I remember that day quite well.

I am in total shock. Our next door neighbor came over and said that she was mowing her lawn and decided to do ours, too.  :o :o :o  These were the same people who used to be total aholes all the time (you could hear them-every other word was "f" this or "f" that). Now, they are almost...human.  :o :o  I did mention how last year we asked them about getting some venison. She came over with some. Then for Xmas, we baked them an apple pie (to reciprocate for the venison) and they gave us a bottle of wine. Now, the lawn. We don't know how to handle neighbors who are actually...nice.

WOW!!  I wish someone would come over and mow ours.

I finished Kindergarten in 1979.

I'm doing pretty well at Pathmark and I've been at Pathmark almost 2 months now.  :)

My cousin is brain-dead.. 3 on the Glasgow Coma Scale. I missed school to see her today... the most gruesome thing I've ever seen.

The plug is pulled Saturday.

I have been atheist for a long time now, but I can say this with more confidence than I ever have in my entire life: There is no God.

I'm sorry about your cousin Andrew...and I'm also sorry that you feel that way.  Some things just cannot be explained for why they happen...and it's hard to understand why they do...but it doesn't make it any easier to get through the situation. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

I'm feeling pretty good. I did some good bargaining.

My friends brother in law is a mechanic, in exchange for me helping my buddy stain his deck, he gave his ticket to the ballgame on friday to his brother in law who in turn is going to come with me and check out the BMW 5 series I'm considering purchasing.

I tested the car today and it drove well but there was a knocking from the engine and obviously, I want to know what problems I may face before I buy the car. It's a good model, newish, not too many miles, good condition apart from the sounds coming from the engine. Good price. If it's going to be a big engine rebuild then I'll forget it, but if I can fix it for less than a grand I'll buy the car.

That can go for both believing and not believing in God.

I am sorry about your cousin, as well...










And as for me, I got my first job... at Arby's. I can say that I am at the most apathetic about it.

TG- You are in my thoughts, for whatever it's worth.
I respect your views, even if I don't agree with them.
May you find some measure of peace, and some sort of serenity in your thoughts.

As for me- I am excited.
I finally get my license back, tomorrow.

I am also looking forward to Teela getting out of school, as well as my birthday next month.
(I will finally get my seniority back!)

Arby's kicks ass. I wish I could work at one, but I'd easily gain damn near 100 pounds.. I love their food.

I want to know If It's too early to ask the supervisor to do stock when the weather gets nasty cause I may want to do that and try my hands at something different during the summer.I really like Pathmark a lot and by watching the orientation video,their co-workers really mean a lot to the company.

Howard, do they advertise jobs in store?  Most of the supermarkets here do that.  If they do I would keep an eye out for the job you want to do and then ask the supervisor about applying for it.

Inside the Pathmark shop where you work do they have a board where they advertise any job vacancies they have?  It might be in the staff room or at the front of the store near the check outs.

Happy, my friend in Delaware has just got engaged! Apparently if they get married in America rather than the Caribbean I'm a bridesmaid, I have been promised there will be no pink meringues to be seen when it comes to the frocks.  ;D

So along with the 5 series BMW I'm checking out on Saturday, a guy with a 74 Chevy Nova came to my Uncle's bank this morning.

I was there within 10 minutes.  ;D

406 V8. Brand new transmission and drive shaft, just over 140xxx.

God I want that vehicle. Me and the guy selling it talked for a while and I made him an offer, I low-balled him pretty bad and I know he'll want more, which is fine.

I just want a V8 again, I miss my tank!  ;D

I'd rather go to the Caribbean to be a bridesmaid ;D  I'm one of my SIL's and we're wearing a deep wine color.  I've been fortunate enough to never have to wear pink ;D

Ok I got you.There's a bulletin board right where you walk in,there's one.Or I can check out the employment guide for other jobs.

Rough night again..

Band practice tomorrow, keeping my mind fully occupied.. Saturday evening I have to go watch my cousin die.. but until then, I'm going to try not to think about her.

I finished Kindergarten in 1979.

But that was the year you turned 5. Did you start it at age 4, or were you in kindergarten for only half a year? ???

Yeah, if you hadn't read the previous posts about her.. she got shot twice and she's on life-support. She's getting pulled off life support Saturday. She has two kids, the older is 2-years old.

No, I hadn't read the previous posts. I only spotted your posting right above my reply. Still, it's just sad that she'd been shot. :\'( I'd wondered why she was almost dead.

I can't believe the DUCKS are Stanley Cup champions.

Well, yeah I can...stupid Ottawa.

Sorry about your cousin TG.

Their grandfather, who is my uncle.

Tomorrow at 6 is the time scheduled to pull the plug. I'll be going up.

The drummer left our band, which means we've been reduced to just me and my friend Dave, our guitarist... I don't know if the drummer's leave is for good, but.. well, damn, I just don't know right now.

But that was the year you turned 5. Did you start it at age 4, or were you in kindergarten for only half a year? ???


I can't remember anymore,I suffer from C.R.S.  ;D

I'm looking forward to the new schedule tomorrow at Pathmark so hopefully It'll be a good one.

Well I found a cable with the right plug to use with my laptop adaptor here so I'm back online! Internet is slow but at least I'm on. I didn't even need that transformer thing for this comptuer since the power supply is compatible with 220 as long as you have the right cable which I do now.
