RE: I'm kinda bummed...

Wow. I so like the way you look at the world. The glass is half full, you betcha. We need more people like you in the world.

RE: Pregnant

One thing I am drawn to in your responses is that you are a natural at seeing both sides of the coin clearly and intellectually. Too often a person is so hung up on his or her own point of view they miss the value of being able to see another. I'm fairly spoiled; set in my ways. There are issues I do stand firm on. (Being on the fence is uncomfortable for me). I HAVE been known to change my view--this can be healthy, but only if it is genuine and not a survival tool. I like your balance. Are you a libra--ha ha. A man I had started to become friends (for real) with and I were happily having a drink and playing pool at my pet tavern. He laughed, put his arm around me, and said, "R, you're the coolest guy around. And I know what your life is about but I love you anyway". I politely told him that he could have his friendship back as I didn't do well with friendships clogged with conditions. He felt bad. We had a long, long talk. He got it.

RE: I'm kinda bummed...

Oh honey! Oh Time, you thief! Doll, I was such a wallflower in high school I had a difficult time saying hello to people. He's just a late bloomer, as are many in school days. It's probably really neat that you two are contacting now--are you/he available. (You want him to be, is my guess. Fortune favors the bold, love. Climb every mountain and fjord every stream......

RE: Sarcasam

I didn't mean it! was just making a joke. I TOLD you sarcasm doesn't work for me! Sorry--you know you're a fave.......

RE: should i stay or should i go ?

relax. Edison had over 200 failures before he made one light bulb that worked. It isn't magic, there. So, keep your nose to the grindstone.

RE: Sarcasam

I don't think he looked foolish. Everyone has different views, and that doesn't make one right over another or indicate a lack of knowledge. (you were just a tad bit nagging, there).

RE: Sarcasam

this sort of thing never went well with me, as far as me "trying it out".I'm just too honest, I guess. (I could never be in show business-acting is the most unnatural thing in the world for me. I can't "pretend" to not be upset, for instance). I did TRY sarcasm out a time or two, but had to abandon the practice. My boss (a doctor) was known to be quite crisp, curt, spoiled--very difficult to get along with at times. The nurse practitioner assigned to our panel one morning was exasperated with his belligerent and "take no prisoners" attitude. (He was indeed a piece of work from high Heaven). She asked me what she should do to his loud and nasty demand to her. I said, "Well by all means hop to it! We wouldn't want to UPSET him!" he heard. I thought that day would never end. Nope. Doesn't work well for me.

RE: Pregnant

I know. it was a typo. mea culpa! (did I get that one right? merci

RE: how many of you's smoke?

That was for Nuulliiiii--

RE: how many of you's smoke?

thank you darling. You remind me that the world is a lovely place to be--full of smiles, laughter, friendship. Love you

RE: how many of you's smoke?

If I had not read your OP on your non-smoking journey, I may not have done it. Oh, Jeeps, I readily admit that I didn't go gladly (NO!) but now that I have I owe you so much for your recommendation and encouragement. As much as I loved to smoke, (I did enjoy it in the mornings especially) I more wanted to be free of it. You are a friend of solid gold. What you did for me was life saving, no exaggeration.

RE: how many of you's smoke?

I have been about 7 months quit, as well. I went cold turkey. Do you know that many physicians recommend this, still. Know why? Because they believe that once over the nagging of wanting one (and take heart, folks, it does go away) the experience is so ingrained you won't want to have to go through it again. Of course it doesn't work for all, and as a medical professional I recommend doing whatever you need to quit. It is terribly, terribly bad for you. However, to those who do smoke, I also believe that's your right, and it shouldn't be taken away, either. That's what makes for good neighbors--people respecting and compromising so no one walks away empty-handed. Sadly, THAT doesn't always occur, either.

RE: how many of you's smoke?

I'm going to take a wild guess and say you mean your Chinese Horoscope. Am I right?

RE: One of my favourite CS darlings...

I would be all right with lifting the fog, if this was meant about me. Ask, and I will try to be honest. This could get drawn out.......

RE: One of my favourite CS darlings...

yes. He has so far been kind about it. (everyone loves being liked. Everybody). You and I should talk sometime (e-mail, etc...) I have much love and caring inside me and no wonderful guy to give it to. No, I haven't given up!

RE: Pregnant

It is natural for a woman to want a child/ren, and she does not have a super long time to make up her mind, as men do. (Tony Randall fathered a child at the age of 71). Given this fact, men do need to be more understanding about women wanting to fulfill the wonderful nature exclusive to them. If a man really, really does not want children, ever, it is equally wrong to force him to be a father by deliberately getting pregnant against his wishes, so the final analysis is they should split the sheets while still young so she can find a more appropriate mate. Would you really want to live with someone who harbored resentment? It's tough. The ideal situation would be for the man to soften his stance on the issue, but if he just can't, then dissolve the relationship. (not everyone is born with the capacity to raise children. Fair enough?)

RE: One of my favourite CS darlings...

Nope. (but I AM flattered you think so! hugs? ) I cannot tell who it is. He really probably wouldn't like it, and I'm not into making bad karma with friends. thx....

RE: what does this kiss mean??

a handshake is not a guarantee and kisses aren't promises...sounds like she needed a convenient stranger for a short time. (s i g h ) good people who are for real are difficult to find. Not impossible, but not all that plentiful and handy. My friend, I sure know how you might feel about this. It's OK that you pursued a bit, but one doesn't need to go a-beggin' for human kindness and honest love. sorry........

RE: Wolves in Sheepie's Clothes..

WOOF

RE: Wolves in Sheepie's Clothes..

Flex them muscles!

RE: Wolves in Sheepie's Clothes..

I take care of my friendships, soldier, and I don't take you for granted. Promise. You could search the seven seas and not find one more loyal than me. And I'm not just whistling Dixie, so be glad you have me. One good thing about friends is you get to pick--and I picked you. What a lucky find!

RE: Wolves in Sheepie's Clothes..

I only breathe nicely. No, I am not a clod. In spite of everything I have been through in life, I have far too much class to behave that way. No, sir, I would not be impolite to you.

RE: Wolves in Sheepie's Clothes..

I noticed there were no more replies. Is my horsing around offending anyone? If it did, I'm sorry--ro

RE: Is it me Or has all the IM's gone???

careful what you wish for lovie--many of the members have blocked IM'ng because of some problem or another, and some of us don't get the "attempt", what I mean is the screen will say we have an incoming or that someone "tried" to IM, but then it doesn/t go through or work. I don't bother with it either way, and the last time I tried to IM it kind of scolded me and said that viewer wouldn/t accept or whatever. Too much crappola for me.

RE: Wolves in Sheepie's Clothes..

You are driving me crazy (tell me more)

RE: Wolves in Sheepie's Clothes..

Well, gosh, how honest do you want us to get? Okay okay, I have a difficult time finding undershorts with a big enough pouch, I'm a bit of a cub (a little wooly, but it's usually an asset)and I like to be given long hot oil massages and teased until I nearly go , uh, nuts. Heck, I'm so hot I turn myself on

RE: Wolves in Sheepie's Clothes..

The squirrel is in my skivvies, darlin'. Sometimes ya feel like some nuts, some times ya don't. (do you know where I can get some nuts?)
