Another fun tidbit from my big sister:
You Live in California when...
1. You make over $250,000 and you still can't afford to buy a house.
2 The high school quarterback calls a time-out to answer his cell phone.
3. The fastest part of your commute is going down your driveway.
4. You know how to eat an artichoke.
5. You drive your rented Mercedes to your neighborhood block party.
6. When someone asks you how far something is, you tell them how long it will take to get there rather than how many miles away it is.
1. You live in Arizona when...
You are willing to park 3 blocks away because you found shade.
2. You can open and drive your car without touching the car door or the steering wheel.
3. You've experienced condensation on your butt from the hot water in the toilet bowl.
4. You would give anything to be able to splash cold water on your face.
5. You can attend any function wearing shorts and a tank top.
6. "Dress Code" is meaningless at high schools and universities. Picture lingerie ads.
7. You can drive for 4 hours in one direction and never leave town.
8. You have over 100 recipes for Mexican food.
9. The 4 seasons are: tolerable, hot, really hot, and ARE YOU KIDDING ME??!!

You Live in New York City when...
1. You say "the city" and expect everyone to know you mean Manhattan.
2... You have never been to the Statue of Liberty or the Empire State Building.
3. You can get into a four-hour argument about how to get from Columbus Circle to Battery Park, but can't find Wisconsin on a map.
4 You think Central Park is "nature,"
5. You believe that being able to swear at people in their own language makes you multi-lingual.

You Live in Maine when...
1. You only have four spices: salt, pepper, ketchup, and Tabasco.
2. Halloween costumes fit over parkas.
3. You have more than one recipe for moose.
4. Sexy lingerie is anything flannel with less than eight buttons.
5. The four seasons are: winter, still winter, almost winter, and construction.
You Live in the Deep South when...
1. You can rent a movie and buy bait in the same store.
2."ya'll" is singular and "all ya'll" is plural.
3. After five years you still hear, "You ain't from 'round here, are Ya?"
4. "He needed killin' " is a valid defense.
5. Everyone has 2 first names: Billy Bob, Jimmy Bob, Mary Sue, Betty Jean, MARY BETH, etc.
You live in Colorado when...
1. You carry your $3,000 mountain bike atop your $500 car.
2... You tell your husband to pick up Granola on his way home and he stops at the day care center.
3. A pass does not involve a football or dating.
4... The top of your head is bald, but you still have a pony tail.
You live in the Midwest when...
1. You've never met any celebrities, but the mayor knows your name.
2. Your idea of a traffic jam is ten cars waiting to pass a tractor.
3. You have had to switch from "heat" to "A/C" on the same day.
4. You end sentences with a preposition: "Where's my coat at?"
5. When asked how your trip was to any exotic place, you say, "It was different!"

Thanks to the kindness of a stranger, I got the
help I needed to pass the math test. This after
a long term "friend" failed to show up three
times in a row. I had asked for help for 2 weeks.
Then this stanger from a different site came to
my rescue. First by phone, explaining how to
solve the problems. Then as moral support in
person, as I took the test. He asked nothing in
return! So I treated him to a McDonnal's Meal.
He was not drop dead georgeous physically. But
a beautiful person on the inside. No I am not in
either love or lust. But friendship could lead to
more in the future. It is up to him.

When You Do Not Like The Answer, Do Not Punish The Answerer.
Once the words are spoken, they cannot be taken back. Once someone thought I was great. And when they asked a question, I gave them an honest answer.
But it was not the answer they wanted to hear.
So now I am on their “shit list”. I did not mean to hurt them. And it breaks my heart to thinking they will carry a grudge against me for who knows how long. All I can say is I am sorry. In my heart of hearts I tried to be respectful of their feelings. I will try to
refrain from responding to any questions that they may post in the future. I will keep my
silence, for now anyways. Until I reach a point, where I cannot stand the injustice and I
will have to confront them about it. Because I would rather clear the air once and for all,
instead of holding back on saying what I think and feel. They have a right to their own
opinions. And if they post a question they need to respect the right of others to answer it
honestly, and not punish them by ignoring and snubbing them. I included quotes by
group members to illustrate my point:
From Choozmi:
“Well that's positive reinforcement if I've ever seen it.
I'm getting the impression that there are "right" answers and "wrong" answers to these questions.
That may discourage some people from sharing their true feelings.”
From tongue-in-cheek:
“sheesh... it is amazing how quickly people will tear into another person on the web”

I love it when my sister emails me funny stuff.
She sent me things celebrety's have said. Some I
posted in sayings and such. But this one I felt
deserved some thought. What if, I wondered,would
it be like if this were actually done?
"Relationships are hard. It's like a full time
job, and we should treat it
like one. If your boyfriend or girlfriend wants
to leave you, they should
give you two weeks' notice. There should be
severance pay, and before they
leave you, they should have to find you a
temp." --Bob Ettinger
Would things be better or worse then they are now?

I am not gifted with mathmatical abilities, but
to avoid an additional 10 weeks of a college math course I must pass a test by Monday. I checked the
college tutorial to gain an understanding and I cannot understand a word of it. I copied and pasted on definition to see if it is just me or if the definition is less than adequete for a non mathmatic person to understand. And is it really essential that I know this for a Human Service Major and career?
Up Date July 18, 2005
I PASSED! I PASSED! I PASSED!
JUST 2 POINTS ABOVE THE MINIMUM OF 17 (19) OUT
OF 26. HAVING TRIED ONCE BEFORE AND ONLY
GETTING 8 RIGHT IT WAS A GREAT RELIF TO
PASS!

Women Are From Venus

I greatly enjoyed reading the book Women Are
From Venus, Men Are From Mars. It helped me to understant the root cause of some of the miscommunication which occures between the genders. One term I have heard men use alot is "Friend With Benefits?" I think that means one thing to them and something different for a Women. An other term, not used as often is "Fuck Buddy" And I wonder, do men see both terms as being the same situation? Or do they see them as similar but different? By the same token, what do these terms mean to a woman?
I have my own interpatation of those terms and would like to see what your interpation is.
Maybe if mine are radically different than most
I will revise my view. Or maybe I will gain understanding to make adjustments to my own.

Do You Know What You Are Looking For?

I for one am looking for a relationship. And at the same time
I have desires too. But in order to have a relationship,
I as a woman, cannot give in to those desires. To do so is to
be viewed as a slut, or at the very least, with great suspection.
At the same time, doing that I may be labled as possibly fridged.
So it is damned if I do or damned if I don't. I have to explain
to every single guy why I am here and what am I looking for.
So I say, I will know once I find it.

For all you busy people who want all the love you can handle a pet is the ticket. Why? Because they
have fewer wants and needs so less effort on your part is needed. A pet is fairly simple to care for. And they give so much back in terms of love and companionship. I am a person my self.

I have been told that I have high standards.
But are they too high? The only measurement I
can use is my self. So if I ask for acceptance,
then that is what can be expected of me. If
it is compassion, trust worthy ness, ect, ect.
Then I hold myself to that also.
Am I infallible? No. And I do not expect others
to be either. So what ever my stated standards
may be, understand that perfection is not
required. The only inflexable standard is that
of honesty. Without that, there can never be a
"we". And eventually a "we" is what I really
really want. I do not expect it instantly of
course. It will take time to develop. So do not
let that scare you away. But for those who are
determind never to fall in love and F*** as
many people as you can, I am not a good choice
for you. So just be real and honest about it.
For those who are in for the chase-I do not
want to be the prey to boost your ego's. For
the very, very young, (under 32) I can be no
more then a mother figure for you. Fair enough?

I have heard it discribed in many ways. Especially in songs. But having loved twice I know the experience differs as the individuals do.
I recently found an artical about it that I want to share here. Your comments are welcome.
Falling in love
(Taken from Kimberly Kirberger's Love Series)
It is a mystery why we fall in love.
In the first blush of new love, they are filled to overflowing, but as their love cools, they revert to seeing their love as a need. They cease to be someone who generates love and instead become someone who seeks love. They forget that the secret of love is that it is a gift, and that it can be made to grow only by giving it away.
Remember this and keep it in your heart. Love has its own time, its own season, and its own reasons for coming and going. You cannot bribe it, coerce it, or reason it into staying. You can only embrace it when it arrives and give it away when it comes to you. But if it chooses to leave, from your heart or from the heart of your lover, there is nothing can do and nothing you should do. Love has always been and will always be a mystery. Be glad that it came to live for a moment in your life. If you keep your heart open, it will come again.
