I would have to say the weirdest one I ever went on was a guy I met on one of those phone dating things. I should've known the guy was trouble when he said I had to pick him up because he'd lost his license. But I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt. Well, I picked him up & had to drop his friend off somewhere. We proceed to a local bar, where he started drinking. Then off to the next bar, where he continued to drink. At the first bar, this old guy kept looking at me. My "date" got jealous. When we went to the second bar, the old guy came in a bit later. As my "date" had had quite a few to drink, he got in the old guy's face! We didn't stick around very long. I took him home & left. The guy would NOT quit calling! And he'd leave long, drawn-out messages too. I guess after calling about 10-15 times, he finally gave up. I just saw a personal ad he has on another site & had to laugh. NO WAY!!
I don't know. I think it would be ideal for him to have his place & me to have mine. I've been single for 16 years. And totally alone (without my daughter) for about 3 years. I like having my own space, my own remote, my own food. No toilet seat being left up, or lid off the toothpaste. Plus, I can come & go as I please. But it would be nice to have someone to talk to about how our day went & maybe to go to dinner with, & hold at night. I go both ways on this. But then, I'm not in love right now either. I haven't really found someone lately who I feel that strongly about. And when I hear of the problems with my friends' relationships, I kind of feel like the lucky one!
Yes, but it's my business. And just because there was a car in the driveway didn't mean there was a man in my bed. I have female friends who stay over, maybe because they've had too much to drink & my place is closer.
My rule is if I have company, that's my business. If I'm disturbing you, come tell me or call the cops for disturbing the peace...
It's at $3.59/gallon in Pennsylvania. That's down from $3.69/gallon last week. I think they're trying to play a psychological game with us. Send it up by about ten cents, then drop it by about 5 & we're supposed to think we're getting this BIG BREAK... yeah right! And why aren't our "leaders" doing as they promised & finding out WHY we're being charged this??
I was listening to the radio the other day & they were telling us who has the cheapest & most expensive gas prices. Venezuela has the cheapest at about $0.12/gallon, with Kuwait next in line. And WE'RE paying out the WAZOO!! Something has to be done! And why can't the US use our own fuel?
I'm the middle "problem" child, as we so often seem to be characterized. I have an older brother & a younger sister. I guess you'd say I'm the responsible one. My brother tries to be the boss & my sister just kinda goes with the stride. I'm the "mom" of our brood. And I might add, I'm the STUBBORN one! Always have been. But it's gotten me where I am today!
When I was pregnant with my daughter, my ex's boyfriend & I used to see who could belch the loudest. That was the only time I could really "BELCH". Lost the talent after that. But, we would always say Buick! Now, when I'm alone & burp, I just say BURP! HAHA!!
Some people in Tennessee have trouble with all those 'shall's' and 'shall not's' in the Ten Commandments. Folks just aren't used to talking in those terms. So, some folks in middle Tennessee got together and translated the 'King James' into 'Jackson County' language.....
No joke, read on...
The Hillbilly's Ten Commandments (posted on the wall at Cross Trails Church in Gainesboro, TN )
(1) Just one God (2) Put nothin' before God (3) Watch yer mouth (4) Git yourself to Sunday meetin' (5) Honor yer Ma & Pa (6) No killin' (7) No foolin' around with another fellow's gal (8) Don't take what ain't yers (9) No tellin' tales or gossipin' (10) Don't be hankerin' for yer buddy's stuff
Now that's kinda plain an' simple, don't ya think? Y'all have a nice day.
YUM!! That sounds good! But it's such a beautiful day here, I wish I had something to make on my outdoor grill! *Note to self* Gotta get the patio furniture out.
I somehow ended up with two of them! I think I inherited either my brother's or sister's... we all got them for Christmas from my mom one year. But I've only used it a couple of times. I find that it almost dries my food out too much. I like to still have a little juice in my meat. Keeps it tender. But it's not bad.
