I went home and took a nap so my headache would vamoose, but it's still here.

Just thought you needed to know.

Who is dk and dx? The latest on kitty is that he's still at the vet's and ds is paying for him to spend a few days there to see if he improves.

Ds is not taking a printer. Surely they have printers there. At the local college, all students can print all stuff from the puter for free.

DK = Dear Kitty
Dx = diagnosis

Well, I'm pulling for dk; I hope this isn't just a way to prolong the inevitable.

DD is not taking a printer; actually I think she will have to pay for printing pages at school, but it's very little and I think it's probably worth it to avoid the expense and hassle of the printer/ink/paper. We'll see. Her dorm is right across from a Computer Center, perhaps that will even make it convenient to print there. I think we've almost got a cellphone lined up -- her cousin has a family plan he's willing to add her to. DH and I both have Tracfones because we're cheap and don't use them much, but DD wants to be able to use hers daily.

I don't like people. I don't like being a business owner.

My headache is gone.

Bunco is this coming Saturday. I'm not driving. I plan on imbibing.

My temporary crown has a sharp spot and it is cutting my tongue.

Peopole are nasty. While you are not allowed to be rude to them, they also are not allowed to be rude to you. Or are they? I have that problem, too.

Gave it to a customer, I hope.

I disapprove.

How temporary is it?

Kiwi, punkinhead, how does that cellphone work? They add her to their plan and minutes are added just for her so she doesn't use up theirs?

Ds had a minor thing (fuse) fixed on his car. They wanted to keep it as they were busy so he had lcp come get him. Once in LCP's car, she pulled out in front of someone and her car is now "tore up." All people are ok.

DK is better. Is eating. Is rambunctious (they say .. I don't think he's the type).

I have signed up to be a sub teacher. yay. I feel gooder about this now.

Right now they have 3 people on the family plan and 1000 minutes/month with free nights/weekends and to each other. What they are considering is to upgrade the plan to a national plan (no roaming charges+free long distance) and the total minutes would go up to 1400, with free nights/weekends etc. It's not that 400 would be set aside for her, the 4 (or it might end up being only 3) of them would share the 1400 minutes, but I think they don't use them up every month now, so they think that would be plenty. They're family, they'll all adapt.

DH is swearing in the living room. He's trying to make a video into a DVD. I think I'll stay in here...

I'm glad to hear about kitty. Maybe he'll recover from the unknown malady.

I'm also glad you are feeling better about the teacher situ. And I'm glad it was lcp's car and not DS's. Well, that sounds mean, doesn't it? I sorry to hear it was "tore up". That sounds like something my brother would say. "Thing was all tore up."

I was rude to them, but they were outrageously rude to me first. I told them to please do not come back to our business. Would that be considered rude? --- I said please.

My temporary crown will be replaced w/ a permanent crown on the 21st. I'm going in to get the temporary crown smoothed off today. It huuuurts. I didn't realize it was sharp until all the novacaine wore off, then I figured it was sore b/c of getting a needle stuck in that area. It took me a couple days to figure out what the problem was.

Good that lcp and ds weren't hurt. Cars can be fixed. Ppl are harder.

Speaking of which, my brother fell off a ladder on monday, broke his hip & cracked 3 vertibrae. He's at the hospital and in for a long recovery. He had some major back problems to begin with.

Maybe DK will be alright??? hope so.

Nice relatives to be adding Kiwiette to their plan, Kiwonker.

Thinks I am stressed about: 1. ds is leaving; 2. ds was in an accident; 3. I don't know what ds sees as his responsilibity about the accident; 4. cat is at vet's; 5. I have called vet's office (NOT VET) all day and have heard that they will speak to her about his coming home and let let know; 6. No one called; 7. She called and said she could not answer every phone call and if I will speak only to her, I will just have to wait; 8. I told her blah blah; 9. I hate this fat stupid guy at work who is an a**h*l*; 10. and so on

Things I'm stressed about -
1. DD is unemployed.
2. One of our employees quit this week, right before we start several big buildings (after we kept him employed during our slow time).
3. My brother is in really bad shape at the hospital. I worry about his mental state as much as his physical state.
4. I continue to gain weight.
5. I got into another argument with my father last week. He is the most narcicistic person in the world.
6. My house is sold, but I won't know until the November ballot if it gets annexed into the city, if it doesn't then it will go on the May ballot, and if it doesn't then, it goes onto the following November ballot, and it could go on until 2008, at which time our contract runs out with the developer.
7. I don't know where I'll move if it does get annexed in November.
8. I have to go the the dang rodeo next month and I can't fit into any of my rodeo duds. I promised the wife of our friend who was killed that I would drive her there, because they're doing some kind of memorial to him, so I really can't not go to this one. (I know that's a double negative - so sue me)
9. I'm getting mean in my old age.

Peachy--- why would DS be responsible in any way for CP getting in an accident? he was just a passenger, right?? sorry your kitty's vet is not nicer. should I take offense to the fat stupid guy comment? can't he just be a stupid *ssh*le? why do jerks have to be fat and stupid? why don't ppl like fat ppl? fat ppl are nice and cushy to hug..... and jolly.....fat ppl are jolly.

but fat ppl can be annoying if they bug peachers at work,otherwise they are delightful and they live at our forum ,that is why we are here,we are the nice fat people. WE HAD A TWO HOUR THUNDERSTORM MONDAY NIGHT THAT KNOCKED OUT OUR COMPUTER AND DAMAGED OUR PHONELINES. we couldn't get service til today so i will have to read all the posts and comment and disect everything---i will also post a list of what is bothering me as i see that has become fashionable,chow cows.

Personally I don't think that DS is responsible for that accident, except in the moral support way. Just because she was doing him a favor by picking him up doesn't make him monetarily responsible for that. If it were me, I would encourage him to help her get it fixed in any way short of money. DH would probably disagree with me. But I think that's what insurance is for.

We had a similar incident last winter: DD and BF used our car to deliver some food baskets to cancer survivors for a local organization. He was driving our car and managed to hit and knock over a light pole (a small one) in the apartment complex where they were delivering. He considered it entirely his fault and didn't want to involve us at all, but DH insisted that we split the cost of repairing the pole. If DD had been driving, I don't think there's any reason BF should have helped pay, but I suppose he would have insisted, too.

Our Painty is quoted in the newspaper!

Wow, I thought I was stressed out about a whole lot of things, but now that you've added those lists, I'm stressed about all those too. I've got to go do something about something.

Wabbit, you were absolutely not rude, you were assertive. Good for you. I'm so sorry to hear about your brother's accident. That sounds like a very difficult road ahead. Back problems are a nightmare.

I'm P-O'ed at your vet, Peachie. I think she would do well to remember that there are other vets in the world and keep her *****iness to herself. Apparently the staff is so abused by her they lied about your phone calls to keep her from *****ing at them. If I were you, I'd look for another vet.

Good news -- I'm not jolly therefore I am not fat.

Hi bagz. We had that storm some too I think. Or was it a different day. I have no idea. DD'sbf's family went to Connecticut today to take the bftwin to college. I got up early to go with her to say goodbye to him (of course she was really saying goodbye to BF -- good lord they won't see each other for 3 days...). We stayed for like an hour and a half. I felt a little awkward hanging about, but they made me feel it was absolutely wonderful of me to come over. Crazy people. They would make good inlaws.

You are all so wunnderful. The vet is a cat vet only and it's a neat place to go to. There are cats everywhere. She knows cats. I will be tolerant of this. She said she was giving discounts on the treatment as she didn't like to see DS so upset. I have no details about that as I didn't pay the bill but it sounds nice.

The guy at work is not nice at all. If he were nice-looking I wouldn't have said the handsome jerk at work so maybe Wabby is right. But it's just that he's offensive that his physical pressence is repulsive so he couldn't be good looking. See what I mean? His nose is ugly. His hair is ugly. His shoes are ugly. Fat is just a short word to use and I shouldn't have done it. "The stupid jerk at work who barely picks up his ugly white shoes when he walks really po'ed me off." How's that sound?

CP has some story about her insurance not covering the accidnet because she drove more than she was supposed to. Makes no sense and unlikely as she only drove around the close area UNLESS her family members drove the car. But even then, makes no sense.

Painty is a star. We are all so cool. Wabby needs a new moomoo with fringe and piping to wear to the rodeo.

I have been pouting and feeling sorry for myself.. but I came here and got perked up. Noooooo, not because you all are just as miserable.. you all just write funny stuff ;;

Wabby: How terrible about your brother! I hope he recovers quickly. And I agree, you were assertive --just cause they are a customer doesnt give em the right to poop on people. And I say go out an get new duds with that thar fringe and piping..Enjoy yourself and time with your friends ...pudginess is secondary! This house sale thingy ...I didn't know that it was also contingent upon annexing... 2008 seems far away... and I know how unsettling Limboland can be
CowP:must find out what transpired with DS and Vet ... Dear kitty seems to be improved, yes? I don't understand either why DS would be responsible for LCPs accident... This insurance issue... does your state have a graduating license program for teen drivers... some restrict night driving...maybe your state has a driving perimeter..I dunno sounds odd to me too.

Bagaroo: so glad to see you back on line dahlink!!!!!

Kiwi: Crazy nice people make the best kind of friends...
for our star cow Painty... !!!!
I came prepared to make my list... but think I'll save it fer another day.. We are off to explore the Triad area today... it's closer to health insurance operations.. and DHs Coworkers love the area... so off we go!!!!!!!

So... I figure I'd pop in after a very long day drivin about the "Triad" area and looking for homes... DH drove acourse, yet I was exxxxhausted go figgure.. We stopped at his fav "waterin' hole" and had a few beers..acourse, totally diet verboten.. and it has taken me at least 10 minutes to write this .WHHHEEEE...
