Add me to the {{{huggers}} Twinkie..
{{War and her doggy}} {{Anyone and Everyone who needs one}}

Ok here goes my list for today!!

1. I dreampt of Aliens having custody issues during the threat of a nuclear attack last night.

2. I think it might have had to do with my Tv habits... (LOL)

3. I watched Judging Amy, then Taken, then 24.

4. I got very little sleep, and then had to go for my Echocardiogram test.

5. Looks like all is fine.

6. On the way to the test, I had an exceptional idea. (It takes us a little over an hour to get there)

7. I called my bestest friend in the whole wide world, and asked her to meet us for lunch when we were done. (She works not too far from where we were going to be)

8. She said yes!!! I haven't seen her in person for almost a year. We talk on the phone every few days.

9. We only live about 75 miles apart, but you know how that goes sometimes. I can't drive anymore, and she's afraid of The Narrows Bridge.
(For those of you who wouldn't know what that is, think a mini version of the Golden Gate, or a larger version of Lion's Gate in BC)

10. I cried a bit when I saw her come in. I think I hugged her about 25 times during lunch and at the car.

11. I can't tell you how good it felt to "see" her. We've been best friends for 21 years. Our sons were born 1 month apart.

12. We ate at Red Robin. The food wasn't as good as usual... I didn't care that much.

13. My first fact was my attempt at humor..

14. I had another fact to put here, but now I can't remember it.. I'm just glad to say that I got out of the house today, and that just spending a little over an hour with a good friend is going to be enough for me to get me through these next few weeks feeling 100% better!

1. I am glad Mygetaway's test seem fine and she had such a nice day.

2. I hope Twinkie's hubby has luck finding a new job quickly.

3. I wish Weenerloo could carry me to Jamacia with her on her bosses tab.

4. I would like to see one of Sage's paintings in person. I bet they are beautiful.

5. I think Squared should get her hubby movie tickets and a gift card to a resteraunt for his birthday.

6. I'm wondering if Schoolmarm will get all her papers graded before Christmas.

7. I am glad Wargod was able to give her poor puppy first aid. I hope he is doing fine.

8. I wish Fanny could send some of her mexican turkey soup. It sounds yummy.

9. I love the picture of your puppy in your profile Cyn.

10. Jed is really cool!!!

11. Nimtu, let me know if you make an A+ on your paper.

12. Teatime, your fact about poop jokes made me laugh this morning. Having only one child I miss out on joys of such things. :)

13. I hope Resortgirls hubby comes home soon, she sounds lonely.

14. If Lyn could watch Lethal Weapon all day, she must have a crush on MY man Mel Gibson.

15. I still think we should only go up to 10 facts. Anyone agree with me?

Fanny

Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 10:35 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
1. If I number this wrong I know Square/Fanny will jump in to bail me out.
2. Poor Kady you are obsessing about going to 10, LOL.
3. I want Twinkie to know it's perfectly fine to vent here anytime she feels like it.
4. I know what Twinkie means about hiding in bed; I have been called an ostrich before.
5. Still not feeling guilty about no Christmas shopping.
6. But I AM starting to think something's wrong with me! :)
7. My house was a wreck tonight and I had to work very fast to clean it before the cleaning ladies come tomorrow!
8. And so I missed visiting the chatroom tonight for the TAR fun.
9. I've been called for jury duty the same week and in the same court that I'm going to visit to see if I can't get my points reduced from my speeding ticket last week.
10. Hmmm Kady maybe you are on to something with just going to 10; I'd be done by now.
11. Maybe I can vote to acquit myself.
12. I scored 100% on the introvert scale. No surprise there.
13. I have hermit tendancies which get me in trouble with my family and friends.
14. Who cares, lol. I think.
15. Kady, my mexican turkey soup has potatoes, corn, kidney beans, tomatoes, jalapenos, cumin & cilantro (& other stuff that I can't remember right now) and it is SO good and I don't feel bad about saying that because I didn't make up the recipe.
16. I concur with Kady's idea for Square to take her DH to dinner & a movie instead of digging out the uncomfortable lingerie.

xxxooo

1. I am using Heyitslori's idea for a Christmas gift for my folks this year.

2. I am very grateful for this board and Heyitslori. My folks are going to think I am so clever and so sweet! (I am neither).

3. I think the internet is a remakable thing.

4. I have found long lost friends.

5. I have received email from relatively famous people.

6. This week I received an email from the younger brother of a classmate of mine.

7. It was very special because this particualr classmate had died in Vietnam when the little brother was 12.

8. Tears were streaming down my face the whole while I was responding to the email...but it felt so good.

1. I can't decide whether or not to spoil Survivor tonight.
2. 99% of the fun of it for me is hanging out in the "tonight's show" thread and "watching" with the east Coasters.
3. I haven't had to do any Christmas shopping because DH does it all.
4. We have no Christmas decorations up yet.
5. I don't even know if we're going to do it this year.
6. I can't get in the mood either, and our LR is really small.
7. I usually enjoy having one string of colored lights up in my room and leave them up until way after New Years.
8. They aren't up either.
9. I didn't even buy Christmas cards to send out this year which is the first time in 6 years I haven't done it.

(Seems like I'm depressed, but the time has just came up so quickly, and then it passes so quickly.. Even the kids haven't said anything about decorations)

2. I have never been this late in getting all the preparations for the holiday accomplished!
3. Harry and David are my two best friends this year
4. It's great to see some of the old timer posters back on the boards
5. It's also great to see some new posters out of the lurk mode
6. My big male cat Buddy is at this very moment stalking a bird from the vantage point of the neighbor's window sill
7. I'm hoping Karuuna will allow me to adopt her
8. I'm also hoping VixeninVegas and Kristylovesbb will forgive me for being an absent mom lately

10. I haven't written or sent mine out yet!

1. I am giving my brother and sister-in-law gifts for their cats – a big basket of yo-yo toys, battery operated gizmos, catnip playthings made of all kinds of materials, treats and some other little cat things.
2. For my fav cousin and my boyfriend's family, I put together a basket full of dog toys for their babies – a coat for the new puppy, stuffed toys and all sorts of chew treats.
3. I bought my own puppy's gifts already too.
4. I have not done any other shopping.
5. I have to mail my Christmas cards, but have to get a better attitude before I do it, so the right good cheer translates in the message.
6. I have only received one holiday card this year from my Grandma.
7. This is the first year that I have not made one-of-a-kind cards for my family and friends.
8. I still have to decide on the card to send.
9. I am going to write out a list for everyone this evening and shop/organize on Saturday cause my cashflow is at a minimum.
10. I will do Christmas cards Saturday night.
11. I will mail Christmas cards on Monday.
