Briefly, what would you have us know?

There’s a thing or two I don’t mind people knowing, although I don’t care now to get into a full discussion about it. Were I to share one thing, it would be…
For me, I found out at 31 that in addition to my younger sis, I’ve also got a wonderful, loving older sister who’s now become a close and very loved part of our family.

I wish a co-worker of mine would KNOW, and I mean REALLY KNOW the following concepts:

  1. Just because YOU know something backwards and forwards, that does not mean that you can explain it well.

  2. Just because YOU know something backwards and forwards, that does not mean that I will understand it the first time you explain it to me.

  3. Raising your voice at me does not help.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

I’ve gotta go with two of my favorite quotes:

To get to the rainbow you have to live through the rain

Love doesn’t make things easier, it simply makes it worth it

I know it sounds corny, but hey, good advice isn’t it?

  1. It is possible for a man to be raped. By a woman. By pretty much anything. Rape is not female-only.

  2. It is possible to know something happened to you and not remember it.

[sub]Why are 95% of my posts today and yesterday painful like this?..[/sub]

I didn’t do it. In fact, I wasn’t even in the room when it happened.

That although I can play the piano, I don’t want to be pushed toward an instument and “Just play us something”.
I was a contralto in the California Girl’s Choir in 1980 and did the European tour that summer, so I can sing but I am no soloist and I don’t kareoke.

I broke up with my boyfriend last month, it was hard, and I know I hurt him. I told him it was a really hard decision for me, and that I’d give anything not to be faced with it. Honestly though, that was a big fat lie. I’m horribly relieved and—other than the odd bout of guilt–couldn’t be happier.

WTF? The Hamster’s nibbled off the rest of that post. Can some mod please delete it?

OK, OK…I’ve got a thing for oriental chicks…'specially the ones that can’t post properly, and blame it on innocent rodents. There…I’ve said it. Phew.

I ran five and a half miles this afternoon (and I wasn’t wearing a t-shirt :wink: ).

My knees hurt.

I’m truly glad my bio-sibs have planted little feet on the ground - it gives me somebody to love.

It had always been my intention to pass the genes on down the line, but I apparently have a predilection for women so disinclined. At 49, I think the window is closing, so I truly enjoy my two nieces and two nephews very much. I love and care about my several step nieces and nephews no less, but I’m still gladdened just a bit to have the DNA marching forward.

And that I’ll have you know.

One thing…hmmm…

Just because I don’t think like you, it doesn’t mean I’m dumb. Learn Myers-Briggs personality theory! There isn’t just one “correct” way to perceive reality!

Huh?

Myers-Briggs… does that ever bring back hazy memories of first-year psych class. Don’t remember it well at all, though.

One thing I’ll have you know:

Just because I’m not a twin or a mother / (“honorary”) relative of twins does NOT mean I can’t post on the Twinstuff message board!

Sticks tongue out at Superbee :stuck_out_tongue:

My mum died in 1997. I still dream about her alive, which really breaks me up.

I am not a maid! Your socks and dirty underpants can be put in the laundry bin! I promise, they won’t object.

In case you can’t figure it out, I live with chronic depression, fueled by many regrets. I love my wife dearly, but if I could change the things I’d like to change, we probably would never have met. I’d still change those things.
