Carnivorous plants aren’t human.
Step a little closer, little spider…
He was giving you the benefit of the doubt.
Famous last words.
:rolleyes:
somebody doubted his inhumanity?:dubious:
Who’d ya want me to nominte, Mooommm? She’s nice damnit.
You, OTOH, are a hockey fan!

There you go folks, [del]he[/del] it said it [del]him[/del] itself! :o
The first step in realizing you have a problem is admitting it; good for you, not-human!
Good morning, MMPers from far and wide, including both original threads. I’ve had a nice weekend, and few uncertainties fell into place - just exactly how I wanted them to do so for the first time in a loooong time - so this week is starting off on an underslept beginning thanks to nerves and butterflies but otherwise quite fine start.

I am crushed.
Well, the dollar store doesn’t carry shoe laces, but I got some fabric band aids (generics) so it wasn’t a totally wasted trip. But it is miserable out there, and still no sun. I’m wondering if we’ll hit 50 today, let alone mid-60s. Stoopit weather!
As for resolutions, I resolved not to drink, but my life is falling apart so much that I wish I hadn’t quit drinking.
13 months sober now. Will it last?

Pre-hijack question: What (NYR or other) things have you given up on?

Happy Moanday Y’all!
Hijack away!
<in my best Cool Hand Luke voice> What we have here is a failure to communicate!
Found out youngest baby cousin is going to have a baby. Wishing much good for her; some of her generation have had problems getting to term. With hers it will make the third “Cousins: The Next Generation” not counting my niece’s brood and since they don’t ever visit I feel OK not counting them.
Happy Moonday!
It’s cloudy and looks like rain. Supposed to get up to 66 so YAY! for that.
Getting ready to head for the armpit.
My mother already called. I haven’t even gotten there yet and we already had our first argument.
I had written about it and then thought f’it, nobody wants to read that shit.
So damn much drama in the family and I ask her over and over to stop telling me about it. I don’t care anymore, I don’t have room to care, I don’t have time to care, I can’t do a damn thing about it and even if I could I’m not sure I would.
It’s to the point that every time I see her number pop up on my phone that my chest gets tight and I can’t breathe.
Thus is my morning.

Who’d ya want me to nominte, Mooommm? She’s nice damnit.
You, OTOH, are a hockey fan!
Your mother propositions refs!

I am crushed.
Aww, don’t be sad. i’ll repot you to make up for it.

You can do it, Midget!

I’m sitting this week’s OP out, just to spite you.
Such maturity from someone of your advanced years.
“Day off” involves errands, some housework, and homework. Then I get to get up at 0-dark-30 tomorrow for irk and class.
Spousal unit showed up as I was having lunch. He needed to machine 2 parts and the machines at work were in use, so he came here to use his mill. I just finished eating and I’m about to load the truck for a trek to the convenience center. The sun is out so I should be able to avoid freezing to death.

This may not work for you, but in case it does I’ll throw it out there: think of all the things - your computer issues, money woes, etc. - that are making you want to drink, and then don’t drink just to **spite **them.
In other words, give into your inner temper-tantrum-throwing toddler. “I don’t wanna drink, and you can’t make me!!”
I never said I was better. It’s all moved down, and I’ll be in bronchitis mode by the end of the day.
Thanks shoe.
I’m also worried that now people in the monthly mini-rants thread think that, just because I sometimes post about my cat having problems, and I said he gets scolded sometimes for throwing up, now they think I’m an animal-abuser, or that I at least don’t take good care of my animals. That’s not the case! At all!
(Don’t know if I should say this, and I may well regret it later, but thought I’d put it out there on an impulse.)
I’m running out of money.
I worry that I’ll run out of friends.
I wish I had someone to talk to. I have a friend who says I can talk to him, but I don’t want to bug him too much, and well… I can’t possibly reveal everything to anyone, I suppose.
Maybe I just need a bit of a vacation from this board.
I am obligated to go out to a music composition lesson today, so I have to kick my own ass to get out there and actually do something. Maybe that’s a good thing?
Trash and recycling are gone, except for the microwave. It was too heavy and big for me to manage alone. But I talked to the attendant at the convenience center and he said we can bring it there. So yay!
In about an hour, I’ll start simmering the corned beef. If it stays sunny, I’ll go out for a while to pick up sticks, but if it clouds over, that ain’t happening. We shall see.
To each his own.
Emily, today it will last.
{{{rosie}}}
I’m wearing spring clothes. Yay!
I made no resolutions for the new year and heathens don’t celebrate lent, so there was nothing to break.
As far as vacations go, I haven’t had one for more than four days that I wasn’t visiting family in so many years that I’ve lost track. That’s what happens when your family spreads out all over the country. If I had a choice of vacation, I would head to Ireland for an international one or travel Route 66 domestically.
