I had a bit of karmic luck in the midst of my money-fueled (lack of money-fueled?) stress. I offered to sell my leptop computer to someone at work who wanted it for their child. Then, right before the sale, my desktop went kaput on me. Had my desktop waited two more days, I'd have been up shite creek.
Kind of happy about the situation, the...

Here's a new "have you ever" for all of you out there....
Have you ever had a date that was so bad that you'd have done anything, even faking an epileptic seizure, to make the date end? I had one of those last night. I ended up developing a headache about halfway through the date, and I have never been so glad to have a...

Yes, I'm just being silly. You can only get zotted for dumb debate. Unless you're a "culture editor."
Thank you to all of those who wished me well (or tolerated my pity party). Feeling much better.
Has anyone out there ever been the subject of workplace gossip? I've fallen victim before, but things have been pretty mellow. I can see it now though, it's going to be starting back up again very soon. And all because of a simple change of shift.

sorry to hear you've been sick. being sick when you're alone does suck. i'm doing it right now. but luckily my sister brought me something i desperately needed. she's my angel.
yeah some people totally blow.
i think i might be workplace gossip right now actually. i can totally relate.
it really annoys me how cruel workplace people can be. i hope your situation improves. big hugs
sorry i've been away so much. life gets crazy sometimes. hopefully the crazy is over for now...
definitely think about bumping Two Sisters up your list...it's really good. and i am serious about movies so for me to say something is amazing means it rates highly in several ways. it manages to be both beautiful and horrifying.
hugs til next time

The only time I really miss having a significant other is when i am sick. I want someone to come bring me chicken soup and make me hot tea.
Sigh...

Amazing how sex gets people's attention, but the death of the Bill of Rights is no big deal.

You're absolutely right---I hardly have sympathy for a hypocritical a-hole like Foley, but the outrage would be so much quieter if he'd been hitting on a 16-year-old girl.
I'm still alive... tired but alive....
Just a short update:
The new apartment is lovely! It's quiet, no drug dealing in the parking lot, rat-free, bright. Very purdy. Still a little broke, but thankfully I could scrape up enough to get my cable and Internet back up again. I missed you guys!
Unfortunately (or is that thankfully?) not too much else to report. I gained...

Aw shit.
I lost the the bet.
You're alive.
But seriously, that is some fucked up shit.
I hate drunk drivers.
Does anyone like them?
Anyway, I'm glad she's ok, but it's terrifying just to contemplate.

Hello lovelies,
As I've posted, I am moving Friday. I may not be back on for 3-4 weeks while I get things moved/packed/unpacked, etc., and I cannot check the site from my work address. I will know if I get an email from anyone on the site, and I can talk to those who have my home email address. To the rest of you, I...

hope the move went well 
iretire:
howdy stranger!
About a week and a half before the big move, and I'm getting a little stir crazy.
I'm glad I started early and am relatively prepared, rather than doing the frantic "flight of the bumblebee" last minute pack, but I am so tired of living out of boxes from the liquor store.
And note to those with kids: try not to plan a move around...

so where are you heading too?

Good luck with the move! I know what frantic moving is like and even if you are somewhat prepared - something generally happens to make it frantic anyway *L*
As far as school goes, good recommendation!

I love sex, of course (don't we all), but there's something to be said for a good old-fashioned make out session. Anyone else with me on this one?

Good hunting. Four year courtships can be really hot when they work out, and crushingly frustrating when they don't (I've had my share of both - well, more than my share of the latter).
And I live in a perfectly ordinary neighbourhood.

I have to agree.
Got the word today, the new swank apartment I've been eyeing is going to be mine in a few short weeks!! Finally I will have my own washer and dryer (I told Babygirl that I was going to be able to wash clothes in my underwear and, strangely, she rolled her eyes at me) and fireplace. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a walk-in closet I could...

when i have enough good memories i really like a nostalgia trip. but yeah it is pretty sad. and it makes me feel very old. especially since my b-day is coming up.
GO LEOS!!!
though really i'm a leo/virgo cusp. which means that i don't fit either category. but i fit the birthday predictions for my day like a glove.
okay just for you i'll put my rocky virginity loss in my journal. it's not true humilation unless i share it with all so in the spirit of rocky i can't tell you now.
were you big into the rocky phenomenon?
i loved it but was bad at remembering all the shout outs...especially since the place i went kept changing them all the time

We're home!! Sunburnt and exhausted but otherwise okay. Will post more of an update in a little while....

Slightly better rested (though not yet less sunburnt, we pale Celts weren't built for sunlight)....
California was great fun. Babygirl and I had lots of good mother/daughter time, both during the drive and with the activities. We had a lovely visit with Chalko and Chalka (whose...

wow what a lucky babygirl getting to go to disneyland!
i've still never been to any disney park.
hmmmm i could see how disney would contribute to brokeness...but everyone needs to splurge once in awhile and get a good family vacation. the memories are worth more than you pay for them.
