Well thats true

they found that roadside bombs are far more effective in giving us casulties.


Life may feel as if you are constantly getting kicked on a daily basis, living is about picking yourself up each day and going on and on and on regardless.

If it was a mistake, mutter mutter. Maybe someday we'll find out they were all right. Who knows?

That is precisely what I was trying to avoid saying. Cut it out! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> And that's also why I didn't give the reference location so people can read about the stuff they HAVE found, either.

Anybody else just plain tired of life? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> Or is it only me? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> I'm having a pity party at my house this afternoon...at least until I have to leave for work...and fellow-sufferers are invited. I'll provide the beer. I don't drink, so there'll be plenty to go around--and I'll be glad to cry in yours for you, if you like! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Sure, snacks sound like a good idea. I always get hungry when I'm stressed. Or sad. Or worried. Or. Or. Or. What goes good with salty beer?

And for ambient lighting, I have a candle that's been burned at both ends, too! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Good plan! I always like to have a REAL pity party. Light the candles, put on the sad music, you know the drill.

Hey Faithful, have you been to the doctor about those nodes in your neck? I've been thinking about you...

I'm ALWAYS around, <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> just fon't post much.

Actually I can join because although I'm sort of numb lately, (since I started the ADs 6 days ago I have stopped crying) today I got up at 4:30 a m went on a 4 hour trip for work, worked 4 hours and came back! so I should go to sleep!


But do go see the doctor, Faithful, I don't think those nodes are related to ur other problems. Have them checked out.

You know, CC your sig line would be very useful in Idiotville. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I came back online while I ate lunch--it's 3:30PM; I think I earned it--and I'm listening to a Rachmaninov CD while I graze. Nobody does melancholy better than the Russians! However, now that I'm done I'm going to start cleaning. I have 4 CDs to play--2 Bob Newhart, 1 Smothers Brothers, and a John Pinette. I will do my VERY best to maintain my depression in the face of so much humor. Wish me luck! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Hi, cc46. Haven't heard from you for awhile. I think it was around Christmas when Neak threatened to give you the Dervish! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> You keep nagging that FF about those nodes. She needs to think she's in an echo chamber! Enlarged lymph nodes aren't something you play around with. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Faithful,

I don't dare get into Idiotville! Too much for me.

But I borrowed the sig line from Tumblebugs (the game)because I think it's ABSOLUTELY TRUE and I NEED IT in my daily life. If I practice that concept I might get into less trouble. I am absolutely convinced that "common sense" is the least "common" of the senses! So many lack it!

So I'm trying to apply the sig line.

Today's a holiday here, it's cloudy. So I'll start by taking the dog out and then do some stuff around the house.

I'm alone for a few more days, have to make the best of it.

Here goes, no particular order.

Oh, I lied.

1. How is Neak?
I know she has a good support system, and I know she is strong, and all that. But........ how is she?

Now, the rest in no particular order.

Hi Neaksis. We're not forgetting you. I mean, how could we?

Hi AW...... do the little blue pills really work well? Does that mean you are only half crazy? Not all the way crazy like me?

CC,
You sound good with reservations. What I mean is that I wish things were perfect. Since they never have been for me either, I don't suppose they will be for you any time soon, but I wish they were.

If you ever visit here, I'll buy you lunch. What's your favorite?


T&L
I alternate btween wanting to tease you, and then wondering if I should.

Did the refinance work?
Has HP ever commented on the moving idea?
Do you know how cold it is in Wyoming, and Montana? Well, lets see.......... T&L visits Minesota......... has relatives there. OK, you probably do. I still think it's nuts.
It's getting expensive where I am too - but not on the same scale as where you are.

If you do move to the frozen north, I might be able to visit in the summer, if you tell me which day it will be this year.

Still can't decide to tease you or not. How bad is that?

Believer....... if you moved to Mexico, where would you like to live?

Hi AJ !


One more thing T&L - What does HP do for work?

SS


I think sometimes about all the pain in the world. I hope we can ease that here, even if only a little bit.

Page 3?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> Is everybody outside living today, or what?

It's almost 2:30 PM and I'm just getting home for the first time since leaving for last night's work. I DID stop for an hr. at the Union 76 station 10 miles from the hospital and took a nap in the car early this morning. I wouldn't exactly call it "living", myself, but I've certainly been up to my double chins in the "real" world today. That's my excuse, and I'm sticking to it! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> Errands are a time-consuming thing, aren't they? All I have to do now is drive the 14 miles to Neaksis' house to pick her up so she can come back and replace a missing shingle before the next rain (NO, I AM NOT CLIMBING UP ON THE ROOF TO DO IT MYSELF <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />), see that she gets home, eat some supper, and I'm off to bed. With any luck I'll be asleep before it's fully dark. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> It doesn't get any better than that around here. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />
