I Got Nuttin’… The Worst Ever MMP

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

[QUOTE=Heffalump and Roo]
I’m debating about how much I should share here. I’m a VERY private person and kinda shy, but I like how everyone shares what’s going on and gets support here, so we’ll see how it goes.
[/QUOTE]
Sweetie, I think I speak for everyone when I say you’re free to share as much or as little as you wish. Not all of us feel as compelled as a certain bear to spread TMI far and wide. Even if you don’t want to share, and just come in to ask for a hug, we’ll oblige.

'Cause we’re nice, dammit. :smiley:

We had a nice dinner, clearing 3 leftover veggie selections from the fridge as a result. I just finished building 2 quiches - one for my honey and one for me. They’ll be sliced into quarters so we’ve got 4 breakfasts to go each. (No, that’s not an awkward sentence…) I also nuked a buncha turkey bacon for FCD’s breakfasts, and packed a buncha to-go packs. I’m so organized!

And just to make **swampy ** proud, I did my homework the day before it’s due! Go me! So I’m free to chill till bedtime.

I’m not in Louisiana any more. And it is cold tonight! It’s supposed to get down to the upper teens. I’m staying inside! I like cold, within reason. Earlier today I was out and about and it felt really good. But now…brrrrrrrrrr.
[/QUOTE]

…Oh, I’m sorry…did I send some cold?

Awwwww..you poor, fluffy beast…
…I feel bad. No, really, I do!

not feel bad..muwhahahahahahahaha

Hey people,

Thanks for all the warm welcomes the last time I posted in a MMP. I haven’t posted again because I got a little overwhelmed with the amount of posts and the speed. And then I got a littel overwhelmed with the topics. But this topic is awesome so far.

:: opens eyes::

I’m debating about how much I should share here. I’m a VERY private person and kinda shy, but I like how everyone shares what’s going on and gets support here, so we’ll see how it goes. Also, I’m envious of just about everyone’s lives here because they’re certainly going better than mine from my perspective at the moment. My attitude right now is in the suckitude area at the moment.

But I’m enjoying all of your posts and learning stuff from all of you. Thanks for sharing.

Share, RooPoo, share. Peer pressure is a motherfucker, isn’t it?

Wow, all kinds of MIA MMPers stopping by. This is the part where I’m typing with eyes closed, which I ws not awake enough to attempt this mroning. I’ve tried this before and generally done really well, bu I always have to concentrate really hard on what I’m trying to say because it’s not the same as typing from text. [/eyes closed]

Not too bad; I think it’s intelligible. Hi Winnie and Ellen and LOUNE!

Sorry things aren’t going well for you, HeffNRoo. Here, have some chocolate. Oh…and share or not…stop by and say hi. Once you get comfortable with us, you’ll start sharing. You will. Really.

Don’t be weirded out, Droozie. We’re just having fun.

Sorry about the guy, Hank. 'Fraid it’s not that uncommon of a reaction in that kind of situation. But maybe it’ll make it easier to get over him? And, sometimes, when you think you’re judging character, well…you’re not.

Oh, and Jahdra:
Happy events will take place shortly in your home<snerk>in bed.<snerk>

I never knew they were called buttsets, gotti. Now I do. I promise I had no inappropriate thoughts while reading those sentences.

Sorry that the job is being stressful, taxi; but it’s great that they’ve addressed the issue so constructively.

That baby boy is very very very keeee-ute, Ellen. And it’s so nice to see you drop by again. You should stop in and at least say hi more often.

I liked your baptism story, velvet; especially your description of the ministers.

Sorry you’re not doing so well, olives. Hope the drugs do their thing and make you all better.

Oh…and LOUNE, nice to see you wreaking havoc in the MMP. So, how’s our retirement fund coming along?

I’m sure there was something else. But I’m tired. So, hugs to all I missed. I’ll be back later, maybe. Or tomorrow. Or something.

Aww, share what you feel like and hold back what you want. But remember, we’re only gonna like you if you tell us everything.

HazeyNuttyJava **- I just watched the show I DVR’d yesterday about the Columbian Exposition - which you KNOW was in what is now your neck of the Midway.

At the end of the show, they showed some nowadays pictures around the campus but I didn’t see anyone wearing a “Hey it’s ME!!!” t-shirt. Did I miss you?

I was the Asian girl. :wink:

That reminds me of a prof I had last quarter, who was all about post-colonialism and against marginalization, etc., etc., but ironically ALWAYS got my friend and me mixed up (both of us are Asian). We contemplated signing our final papers “the Asian girl” and “the other Asian girl” just to screw with her head. We decided to play nice in the end. though. :smiley:

[QUOTE=BiblioCat]
Speaking of beerverages, I had a great beer this weekend. A microbrew from Colorado, called Smoke Jumper. A very dark, smokey beer. Easily the best beer I’ve ever had.
Now I just need to find a liquor store around here to order it for me.
[/QUOTE]

Where did you find it? What does the label look like? Hubby wants some…

Dinner is almost eaten, I had a detour to a loonngg nap. It;s down to 30 now, glad it’s clear and dry outside.

chickie, that dosen’t even register on the TMI scale aroud here.

Hef, share when you feel like it, and you will feel like it. If you ever feel behind, I’ll just do my MMP Cliff Notes:

Snow! Polybag meltdowns! Returning MIAs! Job seaches! <snerk>!

89

Me? Havoc? In the same sentence? Noooooooooooooooooooooo. Never! You’re aware of the brilliant and vibrant halo that’s perched atop my noggin, right?

I’m actually at work right now, working on your precious little retirement fund. Stupid taxes and stupid accountants calling with their problems. I shan’t bitch, though. I like my job.

I’m still bitching for a Dopefest. grumble
ohyeahbythewayHazelNutCoffeeyou’rehot.

No way. I can barely type with my eyes open.

I had a vampire appointment today, too. This happens every couple of weeks, no big deal. It’s just inconvenient, if I have something else I want to do that day.
I am also in the minority (?) of people who actually like having blood drawn. No shy veins, and I think the blood is just the purtiest color. The lab people are nice, and give me a printout within minutes, so I can check all those numbers for myself.

We are being invaded by robins. WTH is up with that? Spring isn’t here, and there’s not much to eat. In the 3 years we’ve lived here, our huge holly tree has kept the old berries on, until the next year. Not today. It was stripped in a few hours. We had dozens of robins eating berries, flitting around, and showing their appreciation by dumping on everything in sight. Including our vehicles. Ugh.

I did my WalMartian duty while in town, and came home with poor folks’ food. The crockpot has hamhocks, lentils, and big white butter beans bubbling away.
Mine. All mine. Husband can’t/won’t eat them.

This reminds me: I have two friends who are Chinese (born in Hong Kong, but grew up here) and another who is from a Vietnamese family. The sisters truly look nothing alike: differently shaped faces, completely different hair, and on and on. The third looks nothing like the other two. Her coloring is very different, she’s very skinny, completely different hair from the other two, speaks differently (the two sisters sometimes sound similar, but mostly when one of them has a cold). For a while, the three of them worked in related departments. I was amazed at the number of people who couldn’t keep them straight. Including one of their bosses. Made me want to slap people.

Hey, I AM at work! It’s 10! I’m workin’ over here, I’m workin’!

That reminds me of the second time my husband met a (black) coworker of mine. He’d heard what a great sense of humor she had, and he’d been introduced to her once before; but the second time she admitted she didn’t remember him. To which he promptly replied, very comfortingly, “That’s okay, I realize all us white people look alike.” There was a moment’s dead silence and then she laughed so hard I was afraid she was going to bust a gut.

Next time, wave. I had you confused.

Yeah, with the Other Asian girl.

I’m going to change my name here to “That Stupid Guy That Just Goes to Meetings All Fricking Day Long”

You can shorten it to TSGTJGTMAFDL.

Which, come to think of it, looks a lot like I typed it with my eyes closed.

No, it looks like the cat typed it with his eyes closed.

[/QUOTE]
I don’t know what the label looks like. It was on tap at a bar, and was called Left Hand Smoke Jumper from Longmont, Colorado. It was very tasty.

In other news, I win the Dumbass of the Week Award.
First Day on the Job. Been there 10 minutes. As the driver, I have to do a maintenance check on the unit at the beginning of my shift. Check all the lights and sirens, tires, check the fluid levels, stuff like that. I got in, started the rig, flipped on the lights, jumped out to check the lights in the back and shut the door.
And locked the keys in it. With the engine running.
:smack:
My partner was walking out with the AED and equipment boxes and realized what I’d done and just started laughing. We went in to get the spare keys and the maintenance guy laughed, too. He said everyone does it at some point, so it was probably good that I get it over with right away. So, in the end it was no biggie. At least we were still at the office and not somewhere far away.

Hello again,
I’m not going to event attempt to type with my eyes closed. My grammar is bad enough as it is without causing futher errors with improper typing. Glad to hear about your mondays - mine was fairly uneventful. Weekend was exciting though -went to a Don Ross concert on friday (most wicked classical guitarist ever!) and then cross-country skiing with the family I am currently living with (which is not my biological family if you are wondering). My legs now ache like teh fire. Sunday I spent tearing out stiches on the hat I am knititng for my brother and re-starting for the 5th time - eventually I must continue with it regardless of the number of mistakes or he will receive it at the height of summer! That’s it for now, to bed!

Drat, I just lost a post about the DH situation - for those interested I will post something tomorrow.

For those who don’t know about the DH situation, it is about this guy who wants to marry me. More explanation may come later.

Enough with the suspense! Don’t keep us hanging.

Damn hamsters! We finally get a chance to hear about the DH situation from QD herself, and the hamsters eat it! Bad hamsters!

Inappropriate oversharing is all part of the fun of teh internets.
[/QUOTE]

Thanks. Yeah, I’m neurotic about sharing my neuroticism.

Thanks. Luckily, sometimes it also gets better too. That’s what I’m telling myself anyway.

Thanks. Yeah, I’ve heard that you’re nice. And I was also told to bring you chocolate. You can have all my chocolate. I’m allergic.

Not coming from you cause you’re cute.

Thanks for the chocolate. I’m handing it over to FairyChatMom. She gets all my chocolate. I’m allergic.

No problem. Not saying if the everything will be true, though. :wink:

Thanks, I’ll know where to ask when I’m behind.
