Goddessatlaw | Tuesday, February 04, 2003 - 02:25 pm     1. I'm having an unexpectedly great day; 2. Thanks to Bigd and her posse forcing the issue last night; 3. Turns out Marriage Material was looking for the opportunity, and Bigd presented it; 4. Marriage Material just found out I call him Marriage Material last night in chat; 5. He blushed and said he was flattered (he must have thought "MM" meant Malfeasing Moron, especially coming from me); 6. I told my mom what happened last night, and she's coming out of her boots she's so excited; 7. My dad calls me and my older sister his spinster daughters - now I'm out of the loop and sis's prospects are dodgy because she's in Kenya, and it's a polygamous nation and she's not; 8. Gotta find some Marriage Material for sis. Got any references, Bastable? |
Jbean | Tuesday, February 04, 2003 - 02:42 pm     congrats goddess, that is awesome! good for you! 1. i have to clean tonight due to random apartment inspections tomorrow. 2. this is no small undertaking for me, as i am the messiest person in the state, if not the whole world. 3. i am going to make pancakes for dinner and drink chocolate milk with them. YUM! 4. it is another good tv night, and i'm excited about it. 5. hope AI's finalists perform better than they did last week! 6. i found out that one of the good people at work (and there aren't that many of them) is taking a new job. 7. last night my sister showed up at the gym after the class i take. i introduced her to someone there, and they thought i was joking. 8. i think they think i am a smart*ss. 9. i say better a smart*ss than a dumb*ss  |
Cyn | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 05:52 am     1. One of my favorite magazines is called NEST. 2. I have two favorite rings, but I only wear one and feel naked when I'm out and my mind says, "danger, danger, something's missing". 3. I have three meetings today with three very similar people with three very, very different subtleties about them. 4. This ring I was talking about is four generations directly related to me. 5. Five of my fav things (w/ no hierarchy) are reading, rock 'n rollin, communicating with friends, sitting without thought or word with OH of happiness and also the intimacy that we share. 6. I have six paintings by NYC 28-year-old artist De La Vega. 7. Often when I hear the word seven - I think of the Sonic Youth album Sister - when Thurston goes sssseeeeven - "we move and groove and cut loose from fear; we should kill time, we'll shut it down; I’ve got a pipeline straight to the heart of you; opening in my head." 8. It is eight blocks to one of my regular doc appointments. 9. I like Hendrix when he says, "I don't care if all the hippies cut off all their hair and all the sixes turn out to be nines. I don't care." 10. And I loved it when Jason used to go tttttiin. |
Wargod | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 12:58 pm     I meant to come back about the tag thing, BR. This started last year when Caleb was in kindergarten. We never heard about it from the school, but it was a huge deal on the news and in newspapers. MJH is right....its part of a hands off policy, and there was also something about signaling out kids to be "it" and having them feel like they were being picked on. The teacher really didn't want to punish them, the playground aid didn't want to..but its school policy. Rule might not make sense, but I do agree with them. 1. I went to bed at 1am, watched the clock til it said 2:31am, and fell asleep. I was rudely awoken by the police helicopter doing fly bys over the neighborhood with their search light on. It was 2:44am. |
Bakerygirl | Friday, February 07, 2003 - 05:36 am     1. I figured I would bump this up. 2. I miss reading about everyone, so START posting here more often!!!! PLEASE |
Cyn | Friday, February 07, 2003 - 05:54 am     1. I am on my way to work rumbling with fatigue. 2. I am amazed that there is bunches of snow outside, cause it wasn't there when I was out at 6pm yesterday evening. 3. I never watch the weather so had no idea that this was even expected. |
Ladytex | Friday, February 07, 2003 - 06:01 am     1. This is my weekly TGIF post 2. I have bronchitis, so I will use the weekend to rest up, hopefully 3. It was 80 degrees on Sunday and it is 24 degrees right now 4. I hate to miss it, but with this bronchitis, I may have to miss my ds soccer game tonight. |
Bigd | Friday, February 07, 2003 - 06:33 am     1. I have decided not to apply to BB4. My family says they would rather not have the negative attention. 2. My husband has promised to take me on a trip instead. 3. I am feeling very melancholy today. 4. I filled my car with gas, had the oil changed, went through the car wash, and put new wind shield wiper blades on my car yesterday....I never do these things myself. My husband is very appreciative. 5. I am having 32 people to my house next Saturday night for desert at the end of a progressive dinner. |
Resortgirl | Friday, February 07, 2003 - 06:40 am     1. I am finally feeling better after my bout with the stomach flu and now need to thoroughly clean my house. I read somewhere that "spring cleaning" was done because people burned wood or fuel oil in the winter and they had to wash the grime off the walls and windows. We don't burn either so I have no excuse to wait until spring. 2. We are going to a "Hawaian Luau" next Friday. I have a grass skirt to wear and boy is it gonna be cold!! It's -8 right now... hope it warms up into the teens by then...lol! 3.I am really looking forward to spring and gardening, I've been making my "wish list" of perennials that I want to plant this year. 4.I bought some beads and charms yesterday and am making those little wine glass things, so that it's easy to remember what glass is yours. I see them for $20 a set and can make about 100 for that price.. 5. I have to start working on my taxes for the business this week... Yuck!! |
Resortgirl | Friday, February 07, 2003 - 06:41 am     6.I'm wondering what Bigd is making for dessert? |
Squaredsc | Friday, February 07, 2003 - 08:25 am     1. this has been a very busy week again for me. 2. it snowed last nite and this morning, so far we have about 5 inches. 3. work opened 2 hrs late but i decided to stay home instead, dh went to work though and he is having problems with his front tires, he said he will get some new ones on his way home from work. 4. he had his tires checked 2 days ago and they said there is nothing wrong with them, even though they keep going flat. 5. i got a new car last night and paid a sh*tload of money for it. 6. its a 2001 toyota rav4, i love it but its costing me an arm and a leg. 7. all due to my owing more on my old car than what the dealer said it was worth. i hope that this time the car will last after it is paid off. |
Mygetaway | Friday, February 07, 2003 - 12:17 pm     1. I'll post since I haven't posted for awhile. 2. I started using the new message feature right before the new board changes, so I haven't really noticed a difference. 3. When I do go looking for a particular thread, I'm confused at first.. But since I'm usually confused anyway what's the difference..{LOL} 4. I got to go shopping for new appliances yesterday.. Fun, fun. It was really nice to get out of the house though. 5. We went to Lowe's and thought we did really good, even getting three things for what we were expecting to pay for two. 6. However, after talking again to DH's brother who works for a competing store, he told us he could get us even better name appliances, for less money with his discount. So then I got to go out of the house again to go look at his stuff. 7. So now tomorrow we will have a new stove, refrigerator, and a dishwasher. Plus we'll still have some income tax left over for savings! YEY!! 8. When we bought this house, it didn't come with a refrigerator, so we bought one from St. Vinny's. It has worked really great, but it's going to be nice to have a new one! The stove is awful, and we didn't know how old the dishwasher was, so we decided to replace them all. Our house was a repo from Fannie Mae, so we got no owners info on it before buying. There's a couple things I wish we would have known before, but for the most part we got a great deal. |
Squaredsc | Friday, February 07, 2003 - 04:07 pm     thats great mga. i love new appliances. when we got our new stove, i tried to keep it so clean at first, till it was broken in, then its like, whatever. its lucky i clean the oven every month. |
Lobster | Friday, February 07, 2003 - 06:33 pm     1. When I left for work this morning at 8:45, there was one inch of snow on my driveway. 2. When I got home from work at 5:15, there was and still is approximately 16 inches of snow on my driveway. 3. The forecast for the Boston area was for 2-4 inches. 5. Yesterday was the 25th anniversary of the Blizzard of 78. 6. I think because everyone talked about it so much that they conjured up this storm. 7. Just a couple of days ago, it was only going to be flurries. 8. They said the same thing in 78. 9. We got 2 feet of snow then. 10. I just love winter! |
Bigd | Friday, February 07, 2003 - 06:44 pm     RG - the answer to your question is - I am making a Mandarin Orange Cake, a Chocolate Sweethearts Cake, and some Lemon Sorbet. |
Mak1 | Friday, February 07, 2003 - 06:47 pm     1. I'm laughing at Lobster's post, because the same thing happened to us early this week - we got many inches of snow more than was predicted. 2. When I watched the weather report tonight, I thought to myself that I'm glad the Boston area is getting lots of snow tonight, instead of us again. 3. I think this thread is fun! |
Spygirl | Friday, February 07, 2003 - 07:02 pm     1. I have been absent from this thread for too long. 2. I now have more TVCH Mary Kay customers than I do non-TVCH Mary Kay customers! Yay!!! I love selling Mary Kay because everyone knows the products are great, so I just get people what they already know they want 3. I will be going to Kansas for a final round job interview on the 17th and 18th. 4. After the security warnings today, I have to admit that I'm a lot nervous about flying. |
Schoolmarm | Saturday, February 08, 2003 - 05:02 am     1. I am glad that I'm driving to the next two conferences...New York City next week and Providence, RI the first week of March. 2. I need to watch the news more about our travel alerts and security status. 3. YIPPEE for Spy! Get your rest, though, these interviews are intense and exhausting! Knock em dead! 4. I'm still not done with my edits. Hopefully today, so I can print tomorrow. 5. I went out to 'Happy hour' and it was nice to see people, but it is so depressing to see the, well, clientelle at our best pub. I gotta get out of this town! |
Resortgirl | Saturday, February 08, 2003 - 05:03 am     Wow BigD that sounds delicious! You'll have to give me the recipes!! Hope your party is a huge success! |
Spygirl | Saturday, February 08, 2003 - 07:34 am     1. My agenda today is to do my taxes and work on hard on my dissertation. 2. My agenda tomorrow is to work on my presentation for my interview. 3. I am placing another Mary Kay order tomorrow night -- details can be found HERE 4. I'm wishing Marm luck on her editing and upcoming trip. 5. I bought two new business suits at Stage yesterday for $30.90 total. They were having a massive sale. 6. I have pictures of my new car that I will try to post sometime this weekend if I am still sane enough from the taxes and dissertation to work my scanner. |
Cyn | Saturday, February 08, 2003 - 08:41 am     1. Today is the best that I have felt in a long time. 2. I am working 1-9 next week at the office. 3. I am hoping that Schoolmarm and I can have breakfast or a late night dinner or something. 4. Yesterday I was so nervous from those warnings and speeches that I couldn't function normally. 5. I haven't had a car in years. 6. I do not own a cell phone. 7. I plan to watch TV and clean house today. |
Schoolmarm | Saturday, February 08, 2003 - 09:57 am     1. I am very nervous about going to New York, with the warnings. 2. I had not ordered the convention "bus pass" since I thought that I would take the subway "like real New Yorkers". 3. I am having second thoughts about that. 4. The other teacher going with me is very nervous. 5. We have both had horrid weeks in trying to get everything done before the conference. 6. I also do not own a cell phone! 7. Cyn, if you need to evacuate NYC after I get there, you can climb in my colleagues SUV and we can speed towards New Jersey. 8. Cyn, I think that breakfast or brunch might be a good bet for next week. I'm going to have to dig that schedule out to see what I'm doing for sure. I know that I have a break from 10-12 on one of the days. |
Squaredsc | Saturday, February 08, 2003 - 01:04 pm     marm, with all of that driving you do, you don't own a cell phone? i am always afraid something will happen to the car which is why i have my cell phone, oh and to call in a carry-out order on my way home from work, lol. |
Schoolmarm | Saturday, February 08, 2003 - 05:10 pm     No cell phone= I'm single...who would I call? And I live in a really hilly rural area with lousy reception and many areas of NO signal...go figure! Had a cell phone for a year and couldn't really use it, so I gave it back. |
Jbean | Saturday, February 08, 2003 - 05:39 pm     spy, what part of kansas? is it anywhere near KC? you know i am in MO? 1. i freak out if i accidentally leave my cell phone at home, because i drive a piece of sh*t car. 2. putting black dye in your blonde hair is scary (streaks) 3. but it LOOKS awesome! 4. something else scary is the cat knocking over the dye and getting it all over her (before i added the developer, luckily. 5. my cat would NOT let me give her a real water bath. (we had quite an evening last night) 6. i am going out with the 21 y.o. from work again tonight...i am more a chaperone/dd tonight. 7. i got up early this morning to go work out, and the class was CANCELLED (8:15) needless to say, i was quite displeased. 8. i went to the 10 o'oclock class by my house. 9. i went to eat with my mom and grandma tonight at Bob Evan's. |
