Well, you boring, know-it-all girls. At least I do my bit to make Thursday a little more interesting. It wasn't necessary to openly question my integrity. Now, Suzanne isn't going to want to be friends with me.

Cowpernia 05-14-2004 08:24 AM

Suzanne may not but WE LOVE YOU ALL THE MORE. I especially like being called boring. Remember when John Travolta was involved with that much older woman who died? When was that?

Lohani 05-14-2004 09:29 AM

Before me.

Wabby 05-14-2004 01:59 PM

I'm trying to get over the fact that Bagzie thinks hat man is my type.

I can't remember the pizza guy. Just the septic man and the spinach pie accountant. That Lush leads such a wild life.

I'm bordering on depression here. The hat man comment may have sent me over the edge.

Lohani 05-14-2004 03:05 PM

Wabby, it was only because of his rodeo duds that Bagzie said that.

You are right, I do live an interesting life.

Now I need a nap.

Bagzz 05-14-2004 05:32 PM

Brilliant lushpot
 
wabby WABBY wabby!!!!--Lushie is TOTALLY on beam----------------that is EXACTLY why I set you up with Hat Man-------------He rides the Rodeo!!! {and just to bug Peachers of course----} I BEG YOUR FORGIVENESS !!!!--- and thanks Lush for understanding!!{and you call me BORING!!!!} why i think i stirred it up real good!!! :D :D :D

Bagzz 05-14-2004 05:33 PM

i will go have margies now to settle my stomach.----come on wabby ,have one too,and forget about our little tiff!!!

Kiwonk 05-14-2004 11:06 PM

It was Blow Out, not Blow Up. And I did not do the roofer. Wasn't that a song by Blue Oyster Cult? "Don't Do the Roofer"

I saw Gregg Allmann eating in a Japanese restaurant in Charlotte. I have Robert Reed's autograph (Brady Bunch). My old bf knows Elvis Costello, Linda Thompson, Jennifer Connolly, all of the Bangles and Susie Cowsill. He's going to be a celebrity in his own right soon when his book is published.

But I think Peaches still wins. Gene Kelly beats anyone living.

Hat man's not too bad...in an entrenched country western way. Of course he done you wrong -- that's one of the songs.

We had dinner with a bunch of people, one of whom just turned 100 years old last month! He was very cool. Pretty hard of hearing, but a real sport. He had 2 martinis, a bowl of steamed clams and some chicken fingers.

My ankles are swollen. I bought a Pilates book, but it seemed to want me to have a lot of equipment and I have never done anything from it.

Most disturbing quote of the day:

"A skinned Furby sat on the edge of a table in Mr. DiBenedetto's work space."

Bagzz 05-15-2004 09:12 AM

who is mr debennititosotititoo??? is he in the toymaker in pinocheeoooeoennoeoo?

Kiwonk 05-15-2004 02:25 PM

Oddly enough, he was a toymaker at one time, I think, but now he works for Adidas making a bionic shoe. Maybe they'll come up with one that sticks its tongue out if someone steps on your toe :lol3:

But I think you're thinking of Geppetto.... :nose:

I have a :headache: due to excessive socializing last evening. The restaurant we always go to (believe me, there aren't all that many choices here in Podunk) has closed 2/3 of their dining space to renovate and it was soooo crowded. We had to squeeze 11 or 12 people into about enough space for 8. Very claustrophobic.

Fortunately DH is outside working on his boat, so I don't have to feel guilty about laying around in my pjs. Tomorrow DD is auditioning for a job at a nice restaurant down by the river (click here) (we rarely go there, too $$). If she gets it, I guess she'll be playing guitar and singing for her supper this summer. Freaks me out not a little to think of her either actually getting this job or being turned down. Don't want my baby to get rejected. Not sure I want my baby to be all grown up and working either! Oh well, maybe I should grow up and get over it, eh? :lol:

Lohani 05-15-2004 06:17 PM

I saw Olivia Newton John at the Ritz in NYC in 1982...she was really old looking. I shook Engelbert Humperkink's hand when my cousin was his opening act. He had a concave chest.

Kiwi, I suggest a hair of the dog that bit you.

Where is everyone else. I'm running through the house and killing time on the internet. DD sang last night..it was wonderful. She is so Irish looking, but sings like a black girl in the 1940's.

OK, back to work. bye

Bagzz 05-15-2004 06:30 PM

WOW!!!! kiwiette sings,lohani-girl sings the Bagzz-twins sing-----------CAN WE MAKE ANY MONEY OFF OF THESE GIRLS AS A GROUP?????? "DAUGHTERS OF COWS"---?????

Kiwonk 05-16-2004 01:52 AM

[FONT=][/FONT]Yes, absolutely, they should definitely form a group. I think they should call themselves the Cybertwins.

My mother went out with Boss Hogg from that show I never watched. Before he was an actor. And Peter Gallagher was in my class in college. Now he's cute. He was cute then, too.

I want to hear Lushette.

Kiwi

Bagzz 05-16-2004 07:06 AM

Okay--------ted Neeley Gave Me And My Girls Hugs!!!!!!!!!!!!! He Was Jesus In The The "superstar" Movie And He Was In The Travelling Show When It Came To Town Sometime Last Century.

Cowpernia 05-16-2004 08:27 AM

I once lived in the same apartment complex as that guy who played the sidekick in Bonnie and Clyde. He was in some horror movies too but I avoid those.

Kiwonk 05-16-2004 11:56 AM

[FONT=][/FONT]Isn't it amazing that we've lived through 2 centuries. Or does it only feel that way?

I'm in my pjs again. Drinking coffee. Tomorrow I'm going to have go back on Flylady. Is she sort of the Betty Ford Clinic of dirt?

I saw some guy on the bus in NYC when we were there, who was definitely famous, but I can't figure out who it is. DH thought so too. We're thinking he must be a writer or something. Stay tuned.

Kiwi

Kiwonk 05-16-2004 11:57 AM

There was Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway. Did they have a sidekick?

SugP 05-16-2004 01:01 PM

well fine

LOL!! the Betty Ford Clinic of dirt it is! I'm going to join you there, Kiwi! The house is total tip and I can't seem to get it together.

The name dropping continues: One of my dad's old cars was used in the highly acclaimed but barely-watched 2000 CBS made-for-TV-movie "The Linda McCartney Story". The guy who played Paul (the cutest) drove it. AND if you look closely at the back fence in "Another Stakeout" starring Richard Dreyfuss and Rosie (not the cutest) O'Donnell you'll see that it belongs to my parents. Or once belonged, since they've moved twice since then. What all this has to do with me I'll never know. I don't know anyone famous. I once saw Prince Philip in a hotel lobby, though. He looked old.

So I exercise 5 (count 'em!) times this week and what happens? I GAIN weight. :mad: Don't tell me it's muscle. I have no muscle. I'm depressed.

Bagzz 05-16-2004 01:28 PM

i am depressed as well---i think i need some drugs but i hate drugs-----who can give us advice on depression----------how could i have forgotten my most famous of celebrities-------when Princess Diana visited our province,she shook hands with the crowd and MY had was one of the anonymous hands she chose to shake---i got really great pictures of her up close too-----if i had a good scanner i would copy them------but she died and that does my depression no good---------how do i know if i am depressed enough to get help?

SugP 05-16-2004 03:41 PM

Oooooooooh!
 
I loved Princess Diana. Cried for a week when she passed away, poor thing. :(

I think it's hard to know when you're at the point of needing drugs, Bagzie. We can all just be depressed together.

Kiwonk 05-16-2004 03:53 PM

Wow, cars and fences that are famous! That's exciting!

You need to rephrase that: "I shook hands with Princess Diana when she came to visit us" There, don't you feel a little better already? :dizzy:

Seriously, I think if you have been feeling depressed most of the time for quite a while, you should think about seeing either a Dr. or a counsellor, depending on whether you want drugs or talk. Personally I would avoid a psychiatrist, but that's just me--bad experience -- your results may vary. Certainly they are the ones who are supposed to know best how to help you. There is also the St. John's Wort route, which is pretty harmless and helpful as well. Wouldn't hurt to discuss that with someone medical beforehand either, although if you get a response like "are you insane, that's an herb?", you might want to get a second opinion...

Can you tell I don't deal well with the medical profession? A psychiatrist would love dissecting that, seeing's how my father was a doctor...

I am killing time while DD gets ready for her audition. We are leaving in about 10 minutes. I don't want to be there I wouldn't miss it for the world Why am I going I hope they hire her I hope they don't :yikes:

Kiwi

Cowpernia 05-16-2004 07:26 PM

Bagzie, sweeeetie, I think we're all depressed. I know I am. I thought it was just my life. Maybe it's just life period.

Kiwi, did you snap a picture of the famous guy? It might be somebody I want a picture of.

Sugar, settle down. It IS muscle. This always happens. You've been exercising those abs and they firm right up.

Rasputina is on tour and is coming near MEEEEE.

I once saw Morris the Cat, the real one. He was sitting on a velvet cushion in a department store. We weren't allowed to touch him but he was very handsome.

SugP 05-17-2004 01:10 AM

Peaches ALWAYS makes us feel better!
 
:smug: :smug: THANKS! :smug: :smug:

Now I just need to work on getting to bed earlier. Yaaaaaaaaaawn! What is it about staying up late that's so appealing?

Wabby 05-17-2004 01:37 PM

Bagzie, since you're feeling down I'm going to forgive you for the hat man comment. Does that make you feel any better?? My words of wisdom re: depression - get thee to a Doctor and ask for good drugs!!! I've taken anti depressants a time or two and they do help you get out of the depression rut. Sometimes that's all it will take, and once you get back on track you can be weaned back off them. It wouldn't hurt to try. The only drawback is that it does kill the ... ahem... how shall I put it.... the s*x drive. Sorry Lush, tried to be as delicate as possible. :o


Bagzz 05-17-2004 02:26 PM

Thank you Wabbit
 
dear darling cows!!! thank you for your input regarding my "depression" ---the hour long walk in the nature park yesterday did make a difference----hubby and ds went with me---very peaceful and beautiful island that overlooks the Atlantic-----went on another walk today along the harbour front {they have a new "Passage" that takes you down along the port}ANYway,I have decided to treat my problem with mega-walking----lots of it-----i read that excercise is as effective as drugs AND i have always been a nervous pill taker----never even been on " the pill"---just makes me nervous!!!!SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO------ i will let you know whether excercising is better than drugs---------and it feels different to walk for this reason than just to 'get in shape'----weird.---------------THANKS FOR YOUR FORGIVENESS WABBY-------------- I ENJOYED THAT!!!!!--------------- :p :p

No, afraid not. We were on a bus, I wouldn't want to start anything...

I'm very jealous that Rasputina is coming to your area. Are you getting tickets? DD will faint from envy.

I have to take the links out of my signature. :( Now, no one will ever buy my half.com books. I guess I could resurrect our old web page out of the cobwebs and put those kind of links there.

Okay, I want details here. Because walking for exercise is so boring (especially by yourself, and as we all know I have no real-life friends) -- how is walking to improve your mood better? Please describe.

I hate making phone calls. Would one of you make all my phone calls for me? I will, um, do stuff for you.

I got a CD of photos from the folks that went to NYC with us. One adorable one of their dog, and a whole bunch of our trip. Apparently while I was busy doing other things, DH went to visit the big bronze bull outside the Stock Exchange and had very immature pics taken of himself with it. ahem. :lol:

Ta. Have to go make all those :censored: phone calls I've been putting off.

Bagzz 05-17-2004 04:24 PM

Walking Away the Blues
Walking and other exercise leads to the release of the body's natural happy drugs - endorphins. Walkers who walk at a higher heart rate will notice this effect more than those who walk at a slower heart rate pace. But even at a slower pace, most people notice an improvement in mood.

Many physicians recommend adding regular walking and exercise as a natural treatment to relieve a bout of depression. The cause of depression is related to brain chemistry. By getting your brain to release more of the happy chemicals - the endorphins - you achieve naturally what many prescription drugs and herbs try to do artificially.
welllllllllllllllll kiwi----i guess since i actually FEEL better mentally after the walk,and i am focusing on the "reward" of feeling better {not forcing myself to do the walk out of guilt} it just doesn't seem as boring . It feels like medicine that works and other than that,i guess i just can't explain it!! maybe if you get depressed,it works better!!

Cowpernia 05-17-2004 09:49 PM

Kiww, why do you have to take the links out?

Bagzie, i've been walking in the mornings at work. I find that:
1. I get bored with the same streets and have to change. This can makeme walk further which is good.
2. The fastest I go, the funner. It gets bouncy and less like carrying a telephone booth (torso).

Tickets are $6 Kiww. Of course, we'll have to get a motel room. It's not exactly in Dogpatch.

Kiwonk 05-17-2004 10:09 PM

Well, I'll have to try thinking of it that way -- instead of a notch on my exercise belt -- a way to feel better mentally, because fer sure I can use some of that often enough.

Today I managed to drag my carcass over to the phone and make some of the dreaded phone calls. I just hate calling people I don't know, or people who I have to make a complaint to or something like that. You could say I have a
Phone Hang-up. :lol3:

Anyway, today I managed to make a dr. appt. for DD, get another music student to switch lessons with her next week, and work out the conflict between her dance and her music recitals. Plus I got tickets for the dance recital (not on the phone). Anyone want to go? I have 2 extra.

This :headache: :headache: :headache: is how I've felt since 10 a.m. this morning. I hate migraines. I just read in a magazine that you can sometimes nip them in the bud by drinking two giant glasses of water. Wish I'd read that BEFORE I got the headache.

Kiwi, I share your phone phobia. You should try making phone calls in a foreign language some time. Double the fun!! Cute photo of you and Frankenstein. :D

Kiwonk 05-18-2004 03:44 PM

There is a new notice at the top of each forum asking members to remove the links in their sigs because of too much spamming going on. I'm not sure I understand the connection (doesn't spam come to you?), but it's no big deal.

However I'm still selling stuff at half.com and here is my seller page. :s:

I've done pretty much nothing all day again. I think I'm in a rut.

Hey Sug, sorry to hear about the :headache:. I wonder if water is all I need to drown mine--sounds too easy, doesn't it?

Kiwi

Wabby 05-18-2004 06:57 PM

I have an urgent request from all you cows. My friend's granddaughter is one of the cutest baby finalists on our local tv show. Puh-leaze go to the www.katu.com website and scroll down to AM Northwest. Click on it, and then vote on the cutest baby. Of course you will all realize that Chloe is the cutest baby of them all so I won't need to tell you who to vote for......

Cowpernia 05-18-2004 08:03 PM

Done! They're all cute but I can take a hint.

Bagzz 05-18-2004 09:32 PM

naomi was cute too,but i voted for Chloe!!! kiwi-=---go for a walk and you will get out of your rut { cross my fingers}---------------------love the pic of you guys in front of the Lady of the Island---------------!!!!! i am sending you all an email!!!!

Kiwonk 05-18-2004 10:11 PM

They are all adorable, but obviously Chloe is the clear winner -- what a doll!

SugP 05-19-2004 03:48 AM

Awwwwwwwww!
 
How sweet! Got my vote in just in time. Hope she wins.

I found the info on water and headaches again. It says at the first sign of a headache you need to drink 3 12-ounce (lord have mercy!) glasses of water. Some (but not all) people have found that their symptoms then either lessen or go away completely within 5 to 10 minutes. Interesting. Some doctor at the Headache Clinic at the London Health Sciences Centre in Ontario found this out and we all know how smart those Canadians are. I know I always feel better when I drink two big glasses of water first thing in the morning but sometimes I forget because I'm a dingbat. :dizzy:

Weight gain continues. This BETTER be muscle because I swear I'm not eating more than usual.

Must go to library and teach my mother tongue to other people's kids. Talk about a headache. Don't children know how to behave these days?

Lohani 05-19-2004 11:50 AM

Sugar, you are such an international babe! You don't teach those funny Canadian pronouncations, do you?
I'm moving to greener pastures...11 pages is too much for me.

Kiwonk 05-19-2004 04:47 PM

I agree. Let's move
