Losing it

What order would you put the list in, from worst to what-the-hey, these things happen -


A Losing your car in the parking lot (doh!)
B Losing your passport on holiday (you NUMPTY)
C Losing your place in a long queue because you forgot something (blast it)
D Losing concentration during a boring repetitive job (senility alert?)
E Losing weight without trying (slightly worrying)
F Losing your temper without real cause (eg road rage)

I’ve done them all except option B (so far) but last night I was doing something boring, repetitive, but important to me (setting URLs into one of my ebooks) and suddenly option D has become the most terrifying thing in the world. Until then I’d have put B at the top.

I may be over-reacting, that's why I'm asking. Perhaps everything, at the time it happens, suddenly becomes the most terrifying ...

Z, best argument I EVER heard for shopping in a single giant shop rolling on the floor laughing
Map, you snotklap yourself?

And yup noise is up there bigtime on my intolerance metre, is that losing control or completely understandable? rolling on the floor laughing

Good idea, spewing foam, you've probably scared them to silence forever although you could find some (nervous) health inspectors on the doorstep applause
I don't really.
I am pretty calm generally.
If I see an injustice against somebody, that may set it off. But only that.
Ah well Molly you're just so tall, that's what it is. You bend down and say to somebody calmly 'don't do that' and they nod very very fast and say yes miss. That must be it.

grin
Yeah yeah, I'm a street lamp roll eyes


laugh
Cool, I'm a puppy dog busting for a pee.
Lift that leg and you'll get electrocuted mumbling
Yeah, but what a way to go hey.
I can think of more pleasurable ways, but your choice
Molly, They can call you a street lamp, but you bring light into the darkness and show us mere mortals the way regardless of Pats somewhat bizarre interest.

the streetlamp and the puppy laugh

Odd how you remember people, one person kept shrinking in my memory until he seemed about 3' tall, it was bizarre. You keep getting taller in my memory. I have no idea why! Most people stay around the same size. The acquaintance I met recently after some 30 years was about 6" shorter than I had remembered.

Personality impact, does that work? Take it if you like it grin
I dont make the rules, I just enforce them. So you might want to have a think about that hey.
I've heard it helps manage tinea. Whether thats just sicko's justifying their ways, I'm not sure. Fortunately, I'm just over 6 foot so I can take my turn being the lamp post. One must always honour the turn system.
Where there's a will there's a way.
(checks online for felled lamppost costumes)grin
Anyway, cant we hold hands walking along the beach or something first? Maybe even get dinner? But not our Molly, no no no. Straight into the latex outfit and the heavy stuff.
Dinner has to come afterwards.

Can't do too much activity on a heavy stomach.
Sheesh Pat you and Molly have been doing the foreplay thing for AGES she's just trying to move you past wanting to mark her out as your own to the good stuff roll eyes
Molly, did I count right? 69?

Name your poison.
Map, as Pat says, where there's a will there's a way.wink

Google's your friend.

grin
Oh yeah thats amateur of me... Dinner afterwards.

You might be on to something there Biff, I'm not the greatest at picking up the signals. Especially if there's something good on telly.
Biff, I didn't even notice laugh

I've been a bit engrossed in said foreplay to even notice such an important main course.
Part, it's all over if I've lost out to The Sullivans.
CS get-together checklist... Passport, clothes, sunglasses, towel, 6 litres of water, Berocca.
Sullivans? No way. Neighbours baby, neighbours all the way.
Never having watched it, I have decided to believe it is an amazing series, with top notch storylines and actors.
Molly, You are right, I have ordered this deluxe model with real working light, It might be a tight squeeze but has elasticated sections and it's waterproof.

Map, always the engineer laugh
Here's a picture of me and Molly on holidays in Majorca recently.

Pat darling you'll have to pack a LOT more than that. Molly doesn't do LDR scold so you'll have to move to Cork, Ireland.

Hey, hope it works out for you both once you have rolling on the floor laughing

Map, that doesn't look tall enough scold









It has just occurred to me I am intruding on some private and important developments in oor Molly's life rolling on the floor laughing
Yeah, or she could always move here.teddybear
Biff, Lets leave the room and have some coffee, discuss the pokemon go clues and leave them to it. Pat does look fetching in his white skirt though!
laugh @ Biff and Map

You can tell the grandkids you were present at the very beginning of this oh-so-promising roll eyes love affair

laugh
Well, my blessings on you both. I think this is very promising indeed, once you get the tiny matter sorted of which country you will pick.

I think his has the edge on temperature, Moll. You do like it hot.
Well, I suppose that's better than losing it moping

But losing the potential love of your life - that could be the greatest losing of all.

Molly. Tut.
If you look closely, it appears to bend slightly to the left.
Not that I was drawing attention back to the - ahem - topic.
Biff, Lost my concentration during a boring and repetitive jobhug
I wouldn't do this but the dog wants a walk and someone has to take the 100th. I don't mind if it isn't me, but the tension was killing me.
