I need to hear something fascinating to get rid of this soul destroying boredom. please:confused:
Um… whereabouts in Ireland are you?
The weather’s nice in Dublin. A little too nice, perhaps: I had to mow the lawn last weekend, I have daffodils coming up in the garden, and geraniums that haven’t died all winter.
On another note, I saw two huge planes flying overhead this morning, in formation, really close to each other, very high altitude. American bombers on their way to the Gulf? That’s the third time I’ve seen this in the last month or so.
You must be so bored that you fell asleep. Or disappeared in a puff of ennui.
He was bored to death…
Okay this is entertaining.
Yesterday morning my 4-year-old daughter said she had a tummy ache and felt like she had to barf. She sat down at the table anyway and drank a whole cup of water. Then she popped her vitamins in her mouth and began chewing, and before she finnished chewing, shoveled in a spoonful of cheerios.
Then she barfed.
It came out in the reverse order that it went in. Cheerios came first, then chewed up vitamin, and finally water. Then my wife heard a crunch crunch from her mouth. the little girl had cheeked one of her two vitamins and held onto it as the hurled everything else. Then she chewed it up.
She changed her dress and didn’t barf any more.
I officially predict this thread gets interesting. Based on the post just above this one.
Here’s my contribution:
I went skiing this last week. Nothing got broke, pulled, snapped, bruised, etc…
We all went tubing, too. While videoing the fun, I slipped on some ice and damaged the camera. (Cool sound bite, though). That also netted me a nicely painful hip pointer bruise. One of my buds locked his keys in car and while helping, I got stabbed in the eye with the wildly flaying about end of a wire coat hanger. Ice pack and pain killers helped.
Last day of trip, I caught a nasty little illness: My throat is on fire™
So, now I’m home, doped up and on The Dope.
Enjoy!
i fell into asleep then had to go to work then ugh . jjim tsorry! I’m in North Dublin meself. Are you going to that demo yokey on Feb 15?
Aha, another nort-soyder! Is it the anti-war demo? Dunno - my mum’s visiting that weekend and she’s kinda apolitical. Also, if it’s associated with the bloody Socialist Workers’ Party, I won’t. Can’t stand 'em and don’t want to be associated with them.
Yeah they’re a bit archaic! Why does it say “English” beside your location? Is that where you’re from? Or the language you speak?
I got mistaken for a non-english speeker meschelf.

Do you feel stupid and contagious?
<a pat on the head and a crunchy dog biscuit to the first person to identify the reference>
Nirvana, yuk.
Dog biscuits, yum.
That’s a good point - I never though there might be ambiguity in what that means. It means I’m English - I wanted to have “English ex-pat in Dublin, Ireland” by my name, but the boards won’t let me have a location that long, and I couldn’t have just “Dublin” by my name, because people might think I’m in Ohio. I’ve been here 7 1/2 years, but I’ll always be a blow-in.
Maybe I’ll change it.
ahh sure i’m a blow in too, i’m from Ashbourne originally.

Culchie for’d’ner.
Ahh will ya feck off ya brit, or is that anglo-celt or is that jackeen or is that ooooooh i don’t know anymore. Back to the OP, i hafta say i’m not bored anymore. My 2 friends are entertaining me with their hilarious antics including one of them writing down anything we say so she can put it in her play.
