I don't need new boots, I need new summer shoes. It's summer, I can't wear boots any more.

I bought a pair of silver sandals, a pair of fabric espadrilles with embroidery on the front and a pair of black flats. They are all very pretty.

Do what I do Jen.

Put your shoes in your purse and go barefoot till you get inside....then put your shoes on after your feet dry.

Kimmy will always be Dealan-de...and vice versa.

Todd - isn't being a lexicon illegal in many states?

I never had to take the Kobayashi Maru test until now. What do you think of my solution?

Kimmy,

Good catch. Most do not know that lexicon is a person who steals more than one Lexus. So, to address your question, in my state, it is illegal to steal Lexi if and only if intent can be proven. And I never inteneded to steal more than one so I am in the clear.

Oh, (((2much))) I'm sorry you're hurting.

Is your H a sex addict? Whatever he's got going on it's clearly something he's got to work on himself. Let me guess, nothing's "wrong" with him.

I'm sorry you have such difficult choices ahead regarding kids, where to live & the rest. Now that you've thrown in the towel do you feel some relief?

((((2much))))

BigK,

I think she said she is going to bed. You, OTOH, should go watch more Oprah. I can't believe someone called you a pig and I defended you. What was I thinking? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

2much,

Nothing like a good pair of combat boots. Put on some good socks and lace yours up tight. I know how I felt when I found gemela's love letters and photos and those were months old. It just deflated me in an instant. I wasn't even angry - just finally accepting defeat. I just decided it was no longer worth it. And my case was nothing compared to yours. You are a much stronger person than I am. Funny thing about your H...he can't even be faithful to his OW. It seems like he is either a SA as someone mentioned or he is simply trying to force you to be the one to end the M. And his comment about you not being good enough? That sounds almost like a dare.

Go get a nice new posting and get a new start. Your WH isn't a future for anyone.

My WW is an audiophile. She has music going everywhere in every room all the time. I don't listen to love songs very much but I like them. English love songs can't hold a candle to Latina love songs. For pure gut wrenching passion, there is nothing like a Latina love song. Raw emotion oozes out of the speakers. She brought back some CD's with her from Mexico and she plays them in the kitchen 24/7. I don't really think she even listens that closely to the words (like most people). But, being in Spanish, it costs me some effort to understand them so I listen closely. We were both wroking on different Halloween projects in the kitchen and were in there for hours. I listend to that music and it just depressed the heck out of me. She noticed and asked what was wrong. I told her that the music depressed me because it reminds me of what I lost and what we don't have any more. I miss feeling like that and think maybe we should just go our separate ways so she can be with someone she loves and I can find someone who can love me. She reminded me that we agreed that we would try to learn to love each other again. I hate love songs.

WH and I are going to start dating (each other) again. You can do the same thing...maybe it will work for you and you can regain those feelings again, like we're trying to do.

I don't think I insulted anybody did I? You guys are just typical...if you are insulted by that, then maybe you should not be so typical! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

pio - and anyone else.

There are some great Halloween projects at www dot familyfun dot org

We are going to make General Bone - E - Parts.

BTW - I don't care for love songs either. Not any more.....and the lyrics to almost all country music songs are SO codependent.

I'll take photos of our finished projects. Gemela is doing some good stuff this year. She has this "haunted tree" that looks great. She made it out of a ficus that bit the dust. Unfortunately she got mad at the ficus on day during her gardening and snipped it into dozens of pieces for the trash before she realized it would be great for Halloween. Well she brought it to me. That ficus is now held together with more titanium pins that Evel Knievel. It was hours of some of my best, most creative work. Did I get a thanks? No.

She bought some yellow sheer material and wanted to put scary silhouettes in the windows. Good idea until it came time to make the silhouettes. I downloaded so good patterns from a membership I have at clipart.com, I modified the WMF's to remove or add what she wanted, I added registration lines, blew them up and cut them into A4 sizes pieces and printed them and then carefully assembled the patterns to their intended form. I spent hours doing all this. WW was taking a nap.

I have a question about cyberhugs. What is the difference between:

[[[cyberhug]]]
(((cyberhug)))
and
{{{cyberhug}}}

Do they have different meanings? What is appropriate for guys to give to guys? Is there a "bracket" limit? Sorry I am a bit dense about this part of netiquette.
