On a similar note:
...or when I accidentally leave papers inside my pockets before throwing my pants into the washing machine...then it's a big mess once I take 'em out of the dryer. That's why I always gotta check to see that my pockets are empty before I throw my clothes into the wash!! :o

DYHIW you have a whole day planned out but can't do all that you set out to do, not even the one most important thing you wanna do? For me, today I had intended to do my volunteer work, but the office was closed; no one ever came. :-\\

You have a throbbing headache, when you have not done anything to justify it!

DYHIW you wake up to allergies gone insane.  You can't see because you are sneezing and your eyes are watering.

it's hard for you to get to places because the traveling is much too far?

this explains our friendship.right there. 8) ;D ;)

I hate it on a night that I can't sleep and its a workday. I want to feel refreshed when I go to work.
I also hate traffic: I was sitting in it today on the Garden State Parkway in Jersey a couple of hours ago. Luckily when I got off the exit I was supposed to get off of all the traffic was head towards Staten Island and not the Jersey Side of things. "TonyStewartistheMan" might know what I am talking about.

DYHIW people forward a joke or something in an email and instead of sending you just the original, they send you the forwarded, forwarded, forwarded, forwarded, forwarded, forwarded, forwarded, forwarded message so you have to open TONS of attachments to get to the joke or whatever it is?




And then it isn't even there because your e-mail cuts out all the addresses-and the actual message along with it (yahoo doesn't do that but my "main" e-mail does).

I don't really mind that too much, unless it turns into pages and pages of nonsense...however, sometimes you have to reply a few times to get your point across.



Erin :)

people just get in your darn way. >:(

you get the bad hiccups...the kind that hurts...

it starts to get really hot out and the sweat starts to burn in your eyes? :o


Yes, I have had the stinging sweat in the eyes thing too, Howard. Usually when I've been shopping on a hot day and I am carrying the bags home. I can't do nothing much about it as I have a bag in each hand and the determination to get home is much more than stopping to wipe my brow, lol.

Like you, I sweat a lot in certain situations.  :-[

True, it is not a nice feeling.

I dunno... it just happens sometimes. Like when I was posting in the Longest Thread Ever, it timed out and went to the 'Page Cannot Be Displayed' screen, then when I pressed 'refresh', it went to the 'Post New Topic' screen, but said that an error had occured because there was no subject ???
It's annoying, but you get used to it after a while... nothing you can do about it

Two minutes?

Mine does as well, it's only when it's being stupid.

On another Forum I post on, it regularly times out, and then I can't get back onto the website for another five minutes... very annoying! I think it must be the thing they use to run the forums... nothing wrong with my connection

No point. It's easier wating for the page to load as opposed to having to wait ten minutes for the computer to shut down and load back up again...

I've booted and rebooted and rebooted (my foot is rather sore now) many times before, doesn't work.  ::) ;D

Something curious happened with my computer the other day... I came downstairs one morning to turn it on, and I could hear the computer humming as if it was already switched on. So I turned on the monitor, but it still said "going to sleep" like it always does when the computer is switched off, but when I pressed the power button, the computer wouldn't turn on. I had to move the whole cabinet and all the crap behind it just to get to the wall socket to turn it off by the wall - and I ended up getting covered in dust. This is the only time it has ever happened to my computer, and I couldn't see why the power button wasn't working?

I can relate. Mine usually only snores when he is on his back. When he starts in, I tell him to roll over on his side-and he stops. Though there have been a few times when he snored on his side-usually when he has a cold or something.  :(
