I'm not having any fun and sometimes you just know your not gonna win.

The rules don't make any sense and there is now way of knowing how or when the game ends.

Sometimes it's like chutes and ladders. Roll the dice and hope you land on that ladder but

OH DARN, I hit a chute and need to go back to start.

Other times I feel like I'm on friends playing cups! The rules are just made up as you go along all to the benefit of the one who is meant to win.

I don't even have a box top to refer to for the rules and objective of the game.


OK I'm done

Welcome to my pitty party

YAY! A pity party!

I volunteer to bring the "melancholy" flower salad and I will lead the "Walking with Loneliness" hike followed by the "Rolling in it" mud pit.

Do you think some of the other pity party attendees might bring CHOCOLATE???

I thought women like chocolate at their pity parties? I picture beer for the men.

Wish, this is your lesson in letting go. You don't know the game or the outcome, but you must continue to stay on the board for the sake of your children.

Time for a support group for Wish.

They're peanutbutter cups the size of cup cakes. I could bring a few. And perhaps a beer or 2 to wash them down.

Newly,

I'm gonna stay on board. Just gonna change some of the rules so I also have some control over the outcome.

Wish,

I'm sorry I don't know you story, but I'm here to have a pity party with you! It's okay to feel down sometimes. Letting it out is the best way to deal with any problem. Share it with us...we'll listen.

"There's a chocolate store near me that makes peanut buttre buckets. They're peanutbutter cups the size of cup cakes"

You hooked me! I absolutely LOOOOOVVVEEE peanut butter cups! Yummmmm!!!

You aren't referring to leaving this board are you? I hope not...

TheFeminineside,

I'll post my entire story when it has the happy ending that I'm gonna find. Until then, I'm not riding the rollercoaster anymore. I'm gonna just keep rolling the dice going for those ladders and skip over all the chutes.

Was thinking of changing my screen name but I decided that it will still fit no matter where I find my home to be. I used to want the old one but now I see that the home that I wish for is the one that I am going to find myself in one day.

Pity patty going on! Well we need WHINE by the case. Chocolata by the case.

The game we didn't choose to play. Well we must play or get run over. I tried so hard to unplug and ended up playing by his rules, my way. I am done now. Be nice to him, play softly... then git out of dodge fast....

We need muzak, where are our tunes....I have lived with a looney tune for so long.

I am done, done, done have the papers to prove it. I feel 18 and legal again. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="images/icons/cool.gif" />

Sorry Sky Diver no Whine allowed, only pouting.

And how about Chocolate Fondue. Then everyone can bring whatever they like to dip!

Although I don't recomend dipping cotton candy or pork and beans in it.

As for tunes, I like Classic Rock and Heavy Metal myself, but the Name Game could be lots of fun to <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />
