Oooh! I'm intrigued by these flowering tea thingys!
But I don't understand!
Please explain!!

Expensive as in...

[madonnaontherocks]

I know it sounds like a really mean thing to say, but I hate talking to my grandmother.
I generally hate talking to extended family generally.
They are always trying to shove some biblical bullcrap down someone's throat.
It takes everything in me not to point out every single time they contradict themselves.
Everything has to do with God and the bible with them.
I'm talking about school, and she starts shouting off about some biblical story and I could tell I hurt her feelings when I just ignored her and added in "Hmms" every now and then. Oh well.
Then, oh! Don't let them get started about sports! "Oh, why don't you play any sports. Normal boys your age play sports and yada yada yada."

STFU.
Urgh!
I'm just waiting until I won't have to talk to them ever again.
Which is when I go to college. I plan on moving far away and not keeping in touch.
Its for the best. For their sake...

*hug* I hate my family too, i laughed at my grandpa's funeral when my grandma cried... i'm convinced she won't die -.-'

and the flowering tea are these little pods, (i wish i had a picture), then you put them in boiling water ( i have a special cup kit) and they open into beeeaauuutiful flowers full of antioxidants, then you take them out and they look weird little alien fungus

[Coffee]

Yeah, you almost drank a triffid, man.

I don't want them to die. Just to live happily far away from me, without sucking the joy outta my life. Far far away from me.

OMG! Where can I get one of these?

We had the most amazing concert ever
With Iowan kids x)
I hope someone recorded it and put it on youtube !

[madonnaontherocks]

earth hour beyotches!!!

To justify why i'm on, i'm on a laptop not connected to any power source, running on batteries!

[throbbingheartsic_kio176]

i can definitely live in a house with no lights. just a shit load of candles. i rather liked the atmosphere it made today during earth hour. then my aunts started bitching and we had to turn the lights on at 9.
we started at 8. some people say it's 8:30-9:30 but we did it from 8-9.

I like the candles too, my mom is watching tv, which prompted me to use the computer... the funny thing is we sat down and played a good ol' card game for an hour before, and THEN we realized it was earth hour, and i can't read a book by candlelight if the tv is on :S ruins the ambience

[saintlike_ontheoutside]

Sadly, at 8 or 9 or whatever, I was under heavy stage lights, so no participating for me!

[Coffee]

Dang I missed it. I went to bed super early last night. I was watching a movie and kept falling asleep, gave up and went to bed.

Here's what you missed (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONO0bkpiXhM). At least, partly.

we have this one guy in our orch who's amazing at improvs on the violin, banjo, and guitar
sucks that he can't read music though

[orlandodiychick]

Patti Lapone kicked ass as Moll in The Cradle Will Rock.

I love her version of Nickel Under Your Foot.

Maybe you wonder what it is
Makes people good or bad
Why some guy an ace without a doubt
Turns out to be a bastard
And the other way about.
I'l tell you what I feel,
It's just the nickel under the heel.

Though you can live like hearts and flowers
And everyday is a wonderland tour
And you can dream, and scheme, and
Happily put and take, take, and put
But first be sure
The nickel's under your foot
Go stand on someone's neck while your taking
Cut into somebody's throat as you put
For every dream and scheme's depending on whether all through the storm
You've kept it warm
The nickel under your foot

And if you're sweet, then you'll grow rotten
Your pretty heart covered over with soot
And if at once you're gay, and devil-may-careless
And oh so hot
I know you've got
The nickel under your foot.

[goofipinay]

I hate it when people think that cause they're in a bad mood, they're gonna try to ruin YOUR evening

Stupid people.

[chivalrycittenclaire]

"Current thoughts" had a simliar point of "Random Thoughts"... cept current thoughts was about what was on your mind CURRENTLY... not the random thoughts that are in your mind...
Then some threadheads decide to be mean and say this is a "cheep" (aka *cheap) rip off of "Random Thoughts"
It's just a post... its not a big deal there people... threadbangers is not supposed to be treated like highschool.

[makaalohilohi]

i've been making awesome mini pizzas for the past few days. handmade whole wheat honey garlic crust, garlic roasted garlic sauce, mozzarella, gouda, and fresh pepperoni. this is how i will become fat.

[madonnaontherocks]

my current thought is that this is a rip off of random thoughts :S

[gothictany]

Coffee or Saint love....merge or close? ??

[gothictany]

Lucky!! You can't get fat mamas!;)
On the other hand me?? Oh God why??? LOL

Mmmm...Pepperoni pizza ...Mmm sounds yummy!

I had an over abundance of carrots in the fridge so I baked a carrot cake. I am impatiently waiting for it to cool so that i can ice it with creamcheese icing and top it with chopped pecans. MMMMM carrot cake.....

I think I'm going to try to make crockpot lasagne. I'd just make regular lasagne but I just baked the afore mentioned cake in the pan I use to make lasagne. It's sunday so it is a good day for cooking.

[jsedai_77]

I'm eating a HUGE salad...it's got lettuce, yellow/red/orange bell peppers, raddishes, carrots, cucumber, and corned beef.
it's about 4" tall and covers my whole dinner plate....
this is about what I"ll be eating for the next month or two (although in smaller amounts, it's just that I didn't get to eat breakfast this morning cause I had to take the 6 yr old to the Urgent Care Clinic for vomiting and a fever of 103...the other kids are sick too...yay me) till I find out what the baby is allergic to....hurray for rashes!!
it's a good thing I've got some weight to loose!

[jsedai_77]

I dont think ppl were trying to be as mean as they come off...
we just really don't see the difference between the titles/objectives

[gothictany]

...great Jessica! Now I want a salad but with chicken! Oh and I still have the pic in my head of Kims Carrot cake Mmm... With icing... Mmmm...*drools*


Sorry to hear about your kiddos being all sick girl. :(
Hope they get better;)

I can take pix but I can't ship it. It will be gone before I can make it to the post office. I used the recipe out of the Moosewood Cookbook. It is my favorite vegetarian cookbook and this is my fave carrot cake recipe. It isn't super sweet but there is a truckload of butter in it.

MMMM Jessica's salad sounds sooooo good. I think I'm gonna go fix one for myself now.

[Muffy_Stopheles]

It's not raining anymore!!!!!

[gothictany]

Ah I wish it would rain here! I love the rain ..errr

Me too, but it had been raining nearly nonstop for like 3 days. =( Not cool

[gothictany]

...geez that's alot! It sucked here...it only rains for probably if were lucky , for 3-4 hours straight then the sun comes out. But it's cool outside. I like that about San Diego!
Cuz of the ocean. ;)

[Coffee]

I liked how regimented the rain is in Malaysia. It rains for an hour, every day at around 7pm.

[throbbingheartsic_kio176]

i have a love-hate relationship with rain. if it's just a passing shower on a hot summer day, yeah, i'm in love. but if it's a grey super-wet, rainy day in the spring, it gets me down.

[Muffy_Stopheles]

Yeah, it was the gross, grey, cold rain.

Not the lovely raining while sunshiney kind of rain =D

[Coffee]

There's more than one kind of rain?


I mean, y'know... Scotland, ladies and gentlemen.

[Muffy_Stopheles]

*Laughs!*

Oh Coffee

[klc1168]

I'm sick of the birds using my van for target practice. They are getting very good at hitting it.

[Coffee]

Painting a dartboard on the top of your van was NOT the good idea it seemed to be at the time.

[theelectricshae]

We had a real downpour today. I don't really mind though because it means spring is coming. The thunder made it fun too.

[throbbingheartsic_kio176]

I'm sick of the birds using my van for target practice. They are getting very good at hitting it.

i hate hate HATE birds that take a number 2 on my car. i just washed it friday and so far so good. but before i did, i was itchin sooooo bad to get all that bird crap off my baby. if it happens again, i'm going to invest in a bebe gun and go pigeon hunting.

if they are roosting in a tree near your van try haning up the aluminum pit tins from a few branches, the wind will move them and that will scare off the birds

would if I could but it is a 30 locust tree and the lowest branch is higher than the roof of my house. So I will just have to pray that it rains tomorrow while I'm in class.

ugh, the horror !

[Vikki32]

So, one day last semester, I think it was september, our landlord calls to make sure we've been locking the doors, etc. because there's been a few break ins around the neighbourhood. This same night I was home alone and I kind of got paranoid (I am easily paranoid sometimes) so I printed a sign saying "Beware of Big Dog" hoping it would make some robbers think twice about breaking in (they could have been dumb). Also I kind of thought it would be funny if my roommates came home, saw the sign and were like wtf?
So today I get a knock on the door, this man is selling his poems on some bookmarks trying to start a little business. I was enthusiastic about it and got a buck fifty to buy one. He tries to give me a dog poem and says, "you have a dog don't you?" And for some reason I had this impulse to not tell the story so I just say, "Oh... not anymore." I lied! So I told him I had a cat and took the cat poem. I have no idea why I just didn't tell him it was all a big joke. So this man thinks my non existant dog is dead or something -.-

[makaalohilohi]

i think the day night hanger is super.

[klc1168]

Super bummed: My carrot cake did not turn out well, I forgot to sift the flour so I added too much or all the "help" I had from my 7 year old distracted me and I lost count. Either way my cake was too dry. It tastes good but it is dry and crumbly.

I have no idea what I'm going to wear to school/work today.

My rotation at the free clinic was great. It makes me want to consider public health. I have a few more rotations this semester and a whole other year before I have to make any decisions.

[goofipinay]

Damn.

[Vikki32]

15 words left to write out for the night! woooot! I hope it's not actually 300 instead of 250 =\ that would suck.... I should check... I am such a procrastinator!

[Coffee]

I did NaNoWriMo a few times... Adding 50 words is EASY!

[Vikki32]

this is for my french notebook. I have to read passages/books/articles and then take unfamiliar words and write them out while defining them using examples and quotes. It takes me an hour to do 20 :\ I wish it were as easy as NaNoWriMo (what is that btw?).

[Coffee]

National Novel Writing Month - the challenge is to write a 50000 word novel in the 30 days of November.

[Vikki32]

ohh ok, when you look at it in writing terms and compaired to 50 000, 50 words is definately a piece of cake. Did you ever write that much? 50, 000 words?

[klc1168]

My feet are cold, I'm sleepy and it is only 10 pm. I'm getting sock and going to sleep.

[Coffee]

ohh ok, when you look at it in writing terms and compaired to 50 000, 50 words is definately a piece of cake. Did you ever write that much? 50, 000 words?

A couple times. The secret is definitely in padding EVERYTHING.

Adding 50 words is easy - you just go back and find words that you can add extra words to, to extend any statement.

[Vikki32]

Basically you want to modify every noun with as many adjectives and other nouns as possible and be very descriptive? As well as adverbs modifying verbs?

[Vikki32]

Just came accross the word for DIY in french >.<
According to my french/english dictionary "bricolage" means do-it-yourself!

For no reason. I wanna make a big book of pressed flowers.

[The Angry Hippie]

chocolate, carmel, pecans.

Oh, okay.

Turtle seemed like an odd flavour for cheesecake. Too savoury, for one.

[saintlike_ontheoutside]

I really dislike general Americans.
And I'm generally not proud to be an American. Love the country and the freedoms that are given to us and supposedly portected for us, but hate the government, the people who represent us, and generally the citizens.

I was just reading some comments on some random site about illegals. Of course, all the people jumped on the bandwagon, screaming incoherently about how all illegals should be sent back to wherever they came from. *sigh* America is supposed to be a free place, where all are welcome.
I gotta get outta this place ASAP.

Darn, but I was so excited to see DIY next to the word I didn't consider any context. It happens a lot to me, when I look up a word, there are various meanings (odd jobs was also next to bricolage).
Artisanat definately makes more sense when it comes to the DIY applied to threadbanger.
What type of sentence would you use "bricolage" in?

anything related to cardboard paper, elmer liquid glue, wood coffee sticks and children!!!

or some man building a birds house to put in a tree, like ' il a bricolé une cabane à oiseaux' though it's not the best one

[Coffee]

so Bricolage is closer to, say, Arts & Crafts, then?

[jsedai_77]

so Bricolage is closer to, say, Arts & Crafts, then?

Hippie I want cheesecake. My last attempt at baking was a bust. Sad thing too because I used to bake for a living. I "f'd" up a carrot cake.

Random thought. I had a good time at clinicals today. i had 2 nice patients and one odd ball and I was giving meds. My instructor was in an uncommonly good mood and all my classmates were too. I'll take a good day when it comes to me, they are few and far between.

[madonnaontherocks]

Congrats!

aww thank you!

[throbbingheartsic_kio176]

Tomorrows my Hubbies birthday so i stayed up late making cheese cake. But not just any cheese cake...


BEHOLD!
http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x110/fruitofmywomb/P1060548.jpg

4 Different Flavors in One!
(clockwise)
1. plain
2. turtle
3. mint chocolate chip
4. strawberry Swirl

oh my god... i think my stomach just did cartwheels. i make new york style cheesecake all the time. do you just divide the batter into 4 and mix the different stuff into the 3/4 of it to make the 3 other flavors?

[goofipinay]

I am sewing my friend's prom dress

At first, we had to go all out to change the design
Because she HAD to get this one fabric

NOW, she wants to change her mind
And HER design is sooo ugly D:

The original, we changed.
But the one we all agreed on... was classy
It was gonna have a deep V in the back, but not too low (theme's hollywood)
The front was gonna have draping from the sheer organza...

Now, she wants some bubble skirt
With a fake corset back
A HUGE bow in the back
Costume-like (I usppose since she's a dancer, she's used to it, but really?)
And she wants to use the same pink silk and sheer organza ??

[Coffee]

Make it anyway. She has to wear it.

[goofipinay]

I know,
I just don't want some ugly dress linked to my name.

[Coffee]

then you have only one choice... Alter the design without telling her.

[throbbingheartsic_kio176]

very true. but the customer is always right. business sucks. lol

[goofipinay]

Haha
Um. She better make it look good

She already paid $30 for all the fabric, thread, and zippers
(she got 2 yds of silk, 2 yds of organza, a zipper, two colors of thread, ribbon)

If she wants me to NOT use all the fabric (changing the design, to only using the silk), hey, more fabric for me !

[gothictany]

Haha
Um. She better make it look good

ha goofi..that so reminds me of a customer I had...she wanted a kitchen set of ducks with blue and orange....Orange? I said...are you sure??? she so excited! I made it and I told no one! LOL!
Throbbing KIo is right....there Alwayssssssssss right geez////
I got paid!

[throbbingheartsic_kio176]

blue and orange? mets colors? lol.

[Vikki32]

I'm curious as to whether or not I missed your newspaper beads Madge. Did you finish painting them after? I really want to try making them soon.

[Gabby]

if it's niether here nore there where the heck is IT!

[Gabby]

what do you call a nightmare you have in the middle of the day?

[gothictany]

blue and orange? mets colors? lol.
really? those are Mets colors? ha ha ha I didnt even ask why? maybe huh?
this was along time ago..

[throbbingheartsic_kio176]

that's the only reason i can think of for combining blue and orange. or maybe someone can just be colorblind.

[goofipinay]

No,
Blue and Orange go well together

A primary color's complimentary color is the secondary color made from the other two primary colors not used

Blue (Yellow + Red) = Orange
Yellow (Red + Blue) = Purple
Red (Blue + Yellow) = Green

[throbbingheartsic_kio176]

lol i remember that from 7th grade art class. i just don't like blue + orange. makes me think of baseball.

[gothictany]

No,
Blue and Orange go well together

A primary color's complimentary color is the secondary color made from the other two primary colors not used

Blue (Yellow + Red) = Orange
Yellow (Red + Blue) = Purple
Red (Blue + Yellow) = Green
No Goofi!
...shes just tackless!
really cmon!

[goofipinay]

=O
I always use Blue + Orange
I hate Red + Green though... to Christmas obvious xD


BUT!
It depends on the shades!
A dark orange can only look good with more of an Indigo than a lighter blue!

Look at my sig =[
Blue + Orange? D: Tackless?

[gothictany]

cmon...blue and orange...with ducks???? yeah...tackless lady.

[NixiDust]

I have such a procrastination problem.

[goofipinay]

Oh, me too
I have done NO homework
I have a Calc test tomorrow, and I have to do research for my research paper

[orlandodiychick]

I so want to!
Canada or New Zealand. I'm loving New Zealand.

Ireland ain't too bad either! That's one of the places on my list

1. Ireland
2. France
3. Spain


As well as Canada and New Zealand

[throbbingheartsic_kio176]

i need to call rutgers like right now. lol. ahhh. i signed up for the 9 oclock tour yesterday instead of the 11:30 like i was supposed to!

[concretetsunami]

Is it wrong to play really elaborate April fool's day pranks on friends and draw it out all day long?

[orlandodiychick]

not at all!

[gothictany]

Seven just played a prank on me!!!
He was on the pc reading his email and yelled "yes"!!
So I was like ..."What happend"??
And he said "yes! Tonight I'm going out with my friends and were going to the bar and drink...and were playing pool too ok?! Just so you know ok?!"...I was like speachless....
I looked away and I was like grrrrrrrr!!!!!
Later...."April fools princess"!!!!
Grrrr.....

[jsedai_77]

that's mean...
I don't like April Fool's cause most of the pranks ppl pull are mean spirited.
also I'm having Hominy, corned beef and rice for brunch....yay

[concretetsunami]

So if you call your wife and tell her that you were fired for grabbing another woman in you your office's butt? An telling her that the woman is probably going to file harassment charges. That wouldn't be too far?

[gothictany]

Yeah! That's too far! Funny but that's your wife and that hurts!

[concretetsunami]

Well I didn't pull that one. My coworker did though. His wife didn't think it was funny either.

[concretetsunami]

does anyone every go on the wheresgeorge.com website and enter the money you have?

[The Angry Hippie]

i don't understand this... how is this a joke?

[The Angry Hippie]

i'd bet the tb sewing machine is selling like shit.

[luminari]

would a shot (syringe)in the mouth hurt more than getting your lip pierced?

no one answered

[Coffee]

Same thing, really.

And I'm sure you're no stranger to getting a shot in the mouth, if you ask in that manner.

[Vikki32]

Gahhh. I kind of feel like my boyfriend is the only one who appreciates the things I do. I rarely get thankyous and stuff. It just bugs me. I'll snap eventually :p
So thankful that I at least have him. <3 :)

[gothictany]

i don't understand this... how is this a joke?
I guess I should of explained. He has to work tonight and.....Sevens cant just not go to work and drink and stay all night!!
Plus he said it in a tone like "Listen here woman!.. I'm going out and your gana shut-up about it ok?!?"!
LOL

[He@RtAtT@cK]

^^That's cool. Sometimes, that's all ya need is that one person :) In any case - appointment today. That means I have to drive into town. Gah, I don't feel liek going today. Oh well, better to just get it over with.

[madonnaontherocks]

i'd bet the tb sewing machine is selling like shit.

well duhhh

half the reason most people are threadbangers is because they don't want to shell out money for brand name

[goofipinay]

Well it's a Janome.

[madonnaontherocks]

Man... the one day i want to take a picture of myself for What You're Wearing thread, i'm stuck going to a play untill 8...

SPeeeEEeeEEeakkkking of which, i still haven't made my last costume piece for my play....tomorrow...

[The Angry Hippie]

oh my god... i think my stomach just did cartwheels. i make new york style cheesecake all the time. do you just divide the batter into 4 and mix the different stuff into the 3/4 of it to make the 3 other flavors?
yup pretty much.

[Gabby]

i have got a massive headache

[jsedai_77]

"Pops", chopped Pecans. and simi sweet choco chips are a tasty snack!

[theelectricshae]

Does living with an older brother ever get any easier?
Because for the last few years its just gotten worse and worse...

[goofipinay]

Hmm? Mine left.
Okay, no, he works so much, I never see him.
^_^

[klc1168]

"Pops", chopped Pecans. and simi sweet choco chips are a tasty snack!

careful with the chocolate there momma. It used to make my oldest really cranky when I was nursing her.

[Vikki32]

I made chocolate lipgloss... my roommates idea. I think he wasn't serious when he said, "haha you should put cocoa in it" he really meant cocoa butter.. but I mixed cocoa powder with the vaseline first then added the wax and it's A-mazing. yummmmm

[madonnaontherocks]

shit. i have to make a whole costume, with a bottle of glue

*channel Tim Gunn*

Make it work!!!

[jsedai_77]

careful with the chocolate there momma. It used to make my oldest really cranky when I was nursing her.

yeah only I'm already on a food allergy diet to figure out what she's allergic to, no dairy, wheat, eggs, fruit. I've GOT to satisfy my sweet craving some how!

it wasnt a lot of chocolate just a handfull

[The Angry Hippie]

nay.

[goofipinay]

*sigh*

Mkay. Let's delete the pics before anyone else sees !

[The Angry Hippie]

nooooo! we all need to vote.

[throbbingheartsic_kio176]

my best friend pulled the sickest april fools joke on me. i used to be in love with him and i worry about him all the time, he used to be in deep sh!t before he straightened himself out last year. he texts me today saying he needs my help, that he's completely wasted and he has no idea where he is. i freaked out and stepped out of robotics to call him. i ended up crying outside in the rain because i was so fucking worried. first thing i said when he picked up was "this better be a sick joke" and all he could say back was "yeah, yeah it is". f*ck.

[luminari]

Same thing, really.

And I'm sure you're no stranger to getting a shot in the mouth, if you ask in that manner.
.....-_- i ment like when u go to the dentist when they numb ur mouth

[goofipinay]

Humm..
Nah, I'm fine with one vote for nay !
Hahaha xD

aww, poor kio <3

[jsedai_77]

*sigh*

Mkay. Let's delete the pics before anyone else sees !

k gotta love the email updates...with out them I'd have missed the pics....
so um..what are we yaing or naying?
I like the side swipe better....if that's what we're going voting on

nooooo! we all need to vote.

.....-_- i ment like when u go to the dentist when they numb ur mouth

right we knew what you meant
k so while at the dentist and you get a shot..it's kinda like a "pop" and pinching and burning feeling
and while at the piercing parlor they use some clamps and hold you dang hard and dang still so that's all I was able to feel....till they were done and then it's sorta a delayed soreness..
also I enjoy both quite thoroughly so I"m the wrong person to ask.

[goofipinay]

you can get email updates ?

and they were the same bangs,
just pushed to the side. xD

[throbbingheartsic_kio176]

Humm..
Nah, I'm fine with one vote for nay !
Hahaha xD

aww, poor kio <3

nay. and thanks for the love hun. i'm currently recuperating.

[jsedai_77]

you can get email updates ?

and they were the same bangs,
just pushed to the side. xD

yeah I think it's one of the settings you set up
I get the first new post in each thread I "subscribe" (post in) since the last time I was on TB.
so I got your post in my email but not Kio's
and now I"ll get whomever's after me

[gothictany]

So we bought our first blue-ray player and I love it..my roomate bought me
ofcourse...a copy of THe Nightmare 4 Christmas in blue ray and I was like dammmmmmmmm!!!! it was like I saw it for the first time again...if that makes sence. lol
We also cancelled our membership with Blockbuster and got Netflix..solely for the purpose of viewing movies on our xbox and wireless blueray!! Im so spoiled!
looks amazin on the 42" tv we got...

I know what ur thinking Coffee dear...why all that when we should get food instead right? well my fridge is full of food and bills are all paid ...at least for this month hee hee hee....
but ur right.

[He@RtAtT@cK]

You should get The Dark Knight on Blu-Ray - it looks amazing. Great quality! Also, we bought Resident Evil Degeneration for Blu Ray a couple months ago - you totally need to check it out if you haven't yet. Movies that originate in digital always look freaking sweet in HD. :D

Anywho...I'm just waiting for my backup hard drive to get here. It's been over a year since my old backup drive was - lost - so, it's going to be nice to be able to back up all my data again.

[goofipinay]

I need to learn how to make pants
So I can stop lusting over the amazing cigarette pants all over etsy *drool*

[BOOGLE]

so today is one of my favorite holidays.

I have three pranks set up for my roommate and she only noticed one.

1. shampoo on the door knob. she was pretty freaked out... she thought i rubbed snot on it or something. HAHA

2. she has this habit of picking up change on her desk and putting it in this jar. its going to be kind of difficult to do that now since i glued them to her desk.

3. I short sheeted her bed... and now im just WAITING for her to try to get some sleep LOL




I probably shouldn't mess with her so much... my bed is only like 3 feet away from hers.

[He@RtAtT@cK]

^^LOL!

Nicely done.

[gothictany]

Oh yeah totally getting Dark Knight fir sure!! We bought a couple of bluerays before hand but the blueray we wanted was sold out. There not making them cuz the economy went down. We finally got it at Fry's!
And as for Resident Evil...dude my son thinks he's Leon Kenedy!
He also says his girlfriend is Alice (Mila Jivovich) LOL
Homie has a 3 1/2 foot poster of Extinction above his bed!!
So those movies are a must on blueray...

Are you talking about an external hard drive for backing up?
I think Seven got one too. Those are a life saver!

[orlandodiychick]

I miss Fry's.

[namelesswonder]

Even though my hausmate was a jerk to me this morning through notes he left on my door and dishes he left outside of my room (I left a bowl outside of his room that he hadn't washed for two days), I'm in a good mood today!

Listening to OK Go, got cleared to graduate next year, BEAUTIFUL weather. :D

[Miss_Gagarin]

self-cleaning concrete is fascinating

[klc1168]

Did my OR/surgery rotation today. I LOVED it. I saw a c-section, a breast biopsy, a Leep procedure, a laproscopy removal of an ovarian cyst and a corneal transplant.

Depending on how I like OB/peds and psych, will kind of determine what I want to do. Oncology was boring but the drugs were interesting, hospice was heartbreaking, free clinic was pretty cool as well but so far I enjoyed the OR the best. When I started nursing school, I wanted to do Obstetrics or OR and I'm still thinking that is what I want to do.

[theelectricshae]

I just had the most embarrassing moment on the phone.
The caller i.d. said my mom's work was calling and I was really excited to talk to her. So when I picked up the phone I screamed into it, "HELLO!!" Turns out one of her co-workers was calling to talk to my dad...

I am so cool.

[jsedai_77]

self-cleaning concrete is fascinating

turn it to 500 close the door and let it sit for 3 hrs?

[Miss_Gagarin]

turn it to 500 close the door and let it sit for 3 hrs?

even easier : let it sit in sunlight

A photocatalysis reaction will destroy dirt and pollutants.

Read this and guffawed. Sounds like something I would do/have done before.

[JumpyJavaJawa]

yay home again! work trip was cut a day short:)

I also bought and assebled a new book case for my appartment. ALL By My Self!!!!


And I installed awesome new blinds.

Lol, well if zombies attack then your son will probably know exactly what to do! :p Yeah, an external drive - I've gone a whole YEAR without one! Crazy...but it came today, and I'm backing up right now. Whew!

[JumpyJavaJawa]

I can read Greek, I just don't know what I'm saying.

I'm not talking Greek written in english letters. I could go to Greece and read the signs out loud and I have no idea what they mean. Unless it's blatantly obvious.
A friend and I memorized the Greek alphabet in highschool so we could pass notes in class they noone could read them.
When a friend in college was learning Greek I could read their flash cards lol. That's when I found out.

[makaalohilohi]

i read my city's utilities bulletin today. it's kind of like reading junk mail, but apparently they have a t-shirt giveaway if you email the answer to a utilities trivia question. what are you required to do by law before you dig? i'm worried that my out of state phone number will somehow disqualify me, even though i pay for my utilities. i really want a free shirt! washington is awesome about free shirts. i got one for pledging not to smoke when i turn 18.

Hey Miss G.....
My french is really bad, last french class was 1987.

I"m all alone...there's no one here beside meeeeee!!

actually I'm just bored out of my mind...the kids are watching another movie (we've all had/have the flu)
dh is at work, the baby is sleeping, and I"ve got no energy to do anything constructive, dishes, sewing, laundry. but I can't go to sleep till the kiddo's do at 8!!

[The Angry Hippie]

wow everyone on the forum has been sick recently.

[madonnaontherocks]

life is now back to normal for me, my play is over and done with...

[jsedai_77]

wow everyone on the forum has been sick recently.

I think it's Spring's fault...cold one day...warmish the next, rain, hail, snow, and 40mph winds....

also we started back to Church recently so large crowds with ppl whose kids go to public schools (or as I like to call them breading grounds for SUPER germs)

[jsedai_77]

life is now back to normal for me, my play is over and done with...

how'd it go?

[madonnaontherocks]

how'd it go?

It was fantastic! at least i loved it, i made..well i taped and stapled my costume, but alas, i do not want to return to the squalor of a normal school day tomorrow


plus, threadbanger quickies made me die a little on the inside, the golden age of threadbanger has reached its end

[The Angry Hippie]

i so thought the thread a needle was an april fools joke.

[theelectricshae]

Bleck, it seems like I've been sick forever. Or at least two weeks.
But anywho.
I just made rainbow cake! The recipe I chose wasn't very good, but the cake itself is beautiful!

so many words for awesome, depending on the context...

you can also use 'superbe', 'génial', 'extraordinaire', and a few more ...

my personal fave regarding a hat is superbe tho

[He@RtAtT@cK]

Soooo, I'm getting all prepared in case anything ever happens to my data...I downloaded Microsoft's Synctoy and I'm using it to synchronize user folders to an external hard drive. It's extremely useful because if just one tiny thing changes in my files, that change is reflected onto another drive. I'm also downloading all the installers for all the programs I use and I'm putting them on my USB thumb drive. I r t3h prepared. Joooooy!

Thanks I was right but I wanted to see if there was a better way of saying it and I didn't want to tell her the totally wrong thing. Like I said, my last French class was before most of the people on this forum were born.

I hope our friend Art can fix our computer this weekend. I didn't realize how much I use my computer, especially now that I have an Etsy shop.
I have faith, the man built the damn thing for us, I know he can fix it, i'm just antsy!

[Vikki32]

I don't want to go to school

[He@RtAtT@cK]

Woot! Synctoy works great! Just a quick visit to the task scheduler and now the backup drive is tested against the main drive for any changes every day. If anything changes, the changes are reflected right onto the backup drive. :)

[Way2crazy]

WoooT!
Spring Break!
(It started on Friday because we have a teacher workday)
It is raining outside and the rain and wind tapping on my window is freaking me outt.

i wonder if anyone else thinks about how many hairs are on this planet... think about it... everything that has hair sheds it... so what happens to all that hair?!?!?!

IT'S EVERYWHERE!!!

[jsedai_77]

well no fevers yesterday, or last night, and I feel pretty normal this morning.

That's just from allergies though.
