I can't speak for anyone else, but as far as I'm concerned there is no statute of limitations on friendship. If you get in touch next week or ten years from now, I will be thrilled to hear anything you have to say, or to read what you wish to write; you get the idea. I care very much what happens to you and continue to hope you're well. Since you said you would always stay in touch, I'm never without something to look forward to. kiss
jozsef:
Hope springs eternal and there is nothing I wrote above that I'm inclined to revise. Knowing how you are would be a wonderful thing and of course I continue to hope you're well and happy. Bless you dear, wherever you are.

Its officially being spearheaded!

On the 30th of this and every month until the end of the US Occupation of Iraq, men will dress as ladies and ladies as men.

That's right, we're dressing in drag to protest the war. It doesn't matter who you are, where you live or what you do. If you protest the use of US taxpayer money to perpetuate the...

Got my Economic Stimulus check today and I feel downright exhilarated. Why do they call it that anyway? Is it because I am going to stimulate the economy by having enough money to shop?

If anyone has reccomendations for cameras within the $100 dollar range, please let me know. I am a photo novice and I am determined to make a wise choice in this...

Thanks a lot. I am glad you like my photos. I am more than fond of yours too, of course. Your photos taught me the meaning of "stimulus package!" Ha!

I have less than a week to find a new housemate. If I am required to pay any more rent than my own I will die. Really my current housemates and I could have conducted this search more effectively. Next time I will know better.

I want to punch someone in the face.

I know I am beng melodramatic by most people's standards but I...

Even if it's not life or death, I'm glad you've averted a crisis, and also that my face is safe for the time being. wink

Yep, is it that obvious. You, my friend, hit the nail directly on the head. Like maybe a sort of a two-in-one donkeypunch kind of nail, head, whatever!!! Ahh!

or [Kr] 5s2 4d10 5p5 for short. count it up, it's all there.

that diagram isn't the structure though. it's just a schematic representation of the electronic configuration, i.e. what I wrote. you should check out the quantum mechanical atomic structure. it's really big and highly polarisable.

Set up for member review in a couple of days, Saturday to be exact. Very similar to another set in member review today. This was unintentional.
Nervewracking- the wait. Even though the whole thing is largely unimportant in the final scheme, just another way to feel alive.
Ive changed my name a lot in the past month-ish. The freedom to change the name may not...

Looking forward to the set- you are a bit hard to keep up with lately, though...
jozsef:
How did I guess? This could open a whole new world of nurturing my seriously silly side. If anyone levels the outrageous accusation of indecisiveness at you, point out to the blighter that you have made a firm resolve to change your mind, gracefully and consistently. I can hold him down as you hammer the point home. Scurvy knaves! kiss

I think I finally figured out the rules to this new system of set submission! Someone posted a link to the New Model Guide in one of the Help threads. I had already glanced at it but I didn't get it til now.

What I thought was you submit a set to both staff and member review at the same time. That while staff is...

An aperitif is an alcoholic beverage taken as a prelude to a meal. I have to confess that the issue of condiments occurred to me as well, but I was reluctant to appear overly preoccupied with this slightly quirky feeding ritual so I thought better of mentioning it before. (How's that for non-judgmental?)
juliett:
Pleather... Thanks so much for leaving a nice comment on my set in member review!

Funny story. I was not able to upload my new set on the application page last week. So in a fit of impatient fury I decided to forgo staff review, an upload it through my regular account. So for five days now it has been sitting on my page saying "Received for Review. Members Can't See This Yet". And I am all sorts of confused....

Hope you get the set worked out soon. Good luck with the taxes, I should have done mine long ago because I am actually getting money back for a change.
padre:
I hope you have your taxes taken care of at this time smile
I'm also hoping you get that set situation taken care of, I hate the thought of having a set lost forever frown

Whatever. Let's change the subject to something that actually matters.

The State Department decided to renew their contract with Blackwater last week....

Annoyed.

When I first traded my soul for a year of SG, they warned me I could not delete the images. They would be up for a year a year and that is final. They warned me.

The Hopefuls sets I have since posted have been deletable, much to my delight, which I thought was reasonable, since I passed up the free year on those....

I called in to work today. My very good friend got married at the courthouse, and I dragged myself out of bed at 10:30 to show my love and support. I must look very trashy in the pictures. I made some sloppy fashion decisions. After that I was simply to exhausted to even begin to imagine battling out quota. I am tele-fundraising at the moment...

Well, two more hopefuls announced their departure today. And more people ragged on them for being immature and sore losers. The usual.

One thing that rubs me the wrong way is that while moderators and such say not to engage with someone if they are annoying you (essentially the golden rule), and not to be unecesarily harsh in feedback, other folks are saying that drama...

jozsef:
Am I to understand you're doing peachy? I do hope so because the meaning of skull is completely lost on me. (Must move in the wrong circles, or perhaps they're elipses; there might be the rub.)

A study of the instinctual attitudes that we all share and exhibit in our own unique ways can make the behaviour of the unsavoury and unpleasant types you refer to much easier to comprehend and view in a detached and sadly amused way. A sense of power and superiority is extremely satisfying to people who feel weak and frightened. There's nothing pleasant about witnessing their behaviour or being on the receiving end but it is possible to feel nothing but sympathy for those to whom decency and compassion are completely foreign concepts. Think of how unsatisfying and transitory most of their relationships will of necessity be. Seen in that light, they don't seem terribly menacing and there is just no motivation to engage them on their level. I've had a really good feeling about you from the beginning and it bothers me to think that messed up people are causing you any discomfort or unpleasantness. kiss
jozsef:
Ate Faige?? Oh, my. It's no wonder safety is a concern for you. Is this sort of transmogrification a common occurrence in your neck of the woods? Does it hurt much? I have to confess it's all quite confusing. I think I'll just stay in for a while. wink
