1. There is no way I can do 13 tonight.
2. I'm still full from Thanksgiving.
3. I cooked for 2 days and have tons of leftovers (which was the plan). I love my dressing.
4. I am bleary-eyed, blokes, from watching most of the Changing Rooms marathon I taped.
5. I bloody well like Laurence the best.
6. I've seen a lot of lilac rooms but no genuine aubergene yet. Their paint seems thicker than what we use.
7. For the first time I worked out the answer to Conde Nast Traveler Magazine's annual contest.
8. It was hard and I've never gotten the answer before although I've tried.
9. I'm going to drive to the post office tonight so I can get my answer in the mail before the deadline.
10. I won't win, but the prize is trip for 2 to any of about 20 fabulous beaches profiled in the magazine.
11. I would go to one of the beaches in Australia/New Zealand because those are the farthest away and I would want to get my money's worth.
12. Ok, I'm done with the contest narrative but that's the only way I can get to 13 without engaging my brain tonight which wouldn't happen even if I desperately needed it to.
13. Ummmmm....oh yeah Whit, you better believe I clean my house before my cleaning ladies come. That's why I'm so busy Wednesday nights...they clean on Thursdays, lol.

XXOOXXOO to everybody.

4. My dad is in town for the weekend.
5. He lives in same metropolis as Whit. :)
6. My dad is staying in a suite at the motel my brother works at for 29.00 a night because of my brother's employee discount. Its huge, with a full kitchen and a big jacuzzi.
7. Me, my 2 sisters, my brother, and the kids are going to the motel tomorrow for a big party in my dad's big fancy room. We are going eat lots of junk and play games.
8. I should go to bed early, but I know I won't be asleep before 3:00 if I do.
9. I stay up till 3 or 4 am most of the time, and sleep until 11 or 12 noon.
10. I'm going to get a tattoo one of these days.
11. I don't like the commercialism of christmas, and find the whole season to be a big drag.
12. My hair is a curly, unmanagable mess.
13. Marm really cracked me up with her story about locking her oven while baking a turkey one Thanksgiving day.
14. I was thinking that RG must have been nuts to brave the Mall of America on one the busiest shopping days of the year.

1) I couldn't sleep so I decided to check out the internet (at 3:30 am!)

2) This is the second site I usually go to (after the weather site)when I get online

3) I really feel like I am a member of a club here

4) It's about 20 degrees and snowing

5) I couldn't sleep because I'm worried about job hunting

6) I got laid off about 3 weeks ago

7) They told me I couldn't key fast enough or accurately enough

8) I think I can get a new job if I try hard enough. I just hate job hunting.

9) If anyone has any tips, please feel free...

10)Moondance and Pamy must both be very pretty to have been hired as pro cheerleaders

11)I tend to talk my way into trouble with women

12)I appologize if I offended anyone in the "guy" thread.

13)I was play acting. I'm not really that sexist.

14)I think women, native americans and other minorities, and animals have been (and still are) bullied in many cases.

15)I hate bullies

1. I really wanted to wait to post until it was back in the single digits :).
2. I went ahead and posted cause I'm the only one up and it's my only time for peace and quiet.
3. I, like a fool, got up on a cold, rainy Sat. morning at 5:00 a.m. to put a turkey in the oven so the family could wake up to the turkey cooking smell.
4. I am cooking turkey only for the leftover sandwich tonight.
5. I cannot go back to sleep now.
6. I am going to regret that later today!
7. I am not ready to decorate for christmas.
8. The "shopping days till christmas.." thread makes me anxious.
9. JKM takes advantage of this :)
10. I ran for treasurer of student government in high school and thought it would be rude to vote for myself so I didn't.
11. I lost - by one vote (just kidding about the one vote thing).
12. I have to clean house today and although I love a clean house I feel like I am in Groundhog Day
13. If you don't get #12: a. you have never seen the movie. b. you have never seen how quickly my family can destroy a clean house.
14. I am on my third cup of coffee.
15. Now I know why I can't get back to sleep.
16. I hope nobody else jumped in before I finished this and posted up to 16.

1. Nimtu's not the only one up around here.
2. I'm at work right now.
3. Unlike most years, this year's Thanksgiving dinner didn't yield too many unpleasant stories.
4. There was a string of years starting about 8 years ago and ending 3 years ago when every year there was a "story" that came from it.
5. I love the foods that are normally eaten on Thanksgiving, but I really don't like Thanksgiving Day at all.
6. I didn't get enough of the foods I like on Thanksgiving Day, so if anyone is sick of leftovers, I'll come by and take them off your hands!
7. I watched the new Muppet Christmas movie last night with my kids.
8. I still can't get used to Brian Henson voicing the characters - they don't sound right to me.
9. We got about 3 inches of snow here yesterday afternoon in about a 3 hour period.
10. The forecast was for "scattered snow showers."
11. I'm usually pretty good at winning radio call-in contests, but I've never won a big prize - usually just movie tickets or gift certificates.
12. I own 1% of the company I work for.
13. I've never owned a new car.
14. I'm left handed.
15. I think Steven Wright and Richard Jeni are the two funniest comedians I've ever seen.
16. I was class president of my 6th grade class.
17. It soured me on ever running for public office.

Sage, Advantage is flea medicine that you put on your cat's (or dog's) neck and it keeps them flea-free for a month....and it pisses them off (at least it does cats, i don't have experience with dogs)

1. Pamy, I'm glad you're pretty.
2. My Dad used to tell me I was "pretty twice: pretty ugly, and pretty apt to stay that way!!" ROTFL!
3. This is what passes for humor in my family.
4. Hubby and I are roasting a tan-line turkey today.
5. I have no tattoos, and no intention of ever getting any.
6. My kids are STILL fighting periodically today.
7. I've gotten the kids interested in making things instead of fighting, which works until they start wanting the same crafting materials!
8. Hubby is baking an apple pie and begging for my "help."
9. Actually, he is jealous of my computer time and doesn't want me here.
10. CD player is shuffling thru 100 cds; that's the only way we get to hear everything.
11. I have a "soundtrack" running through my head constantly, whether or not there is actually music playing.
12. Sometimes I worry that I'm not "normal" in that respect.
13. I think some of my son's habits seem like Tourette's Syndrome, which is a real possibility, as my sister had it in childhood.
14. My sister's son also has mild Tourette's.
15. Our doctor agreed with me that our son may have mild Tourette's.
16. I asked the pediatrician NOT to put this unofficial diagnosis on my son's permanent record.
17. I'm very worried that any LABELS would make my son's school experience difficult.
18. I hate how people label other people and then expect them to fulfill a certain stereotype.
19. I'm really happy when someone turns out to be different than I'd originally expected--when I'd had a negative first impression of him/her.
20. That doesn't very often happen; I'm a good judge of character.
