The wrong way...

Drill Bit

Tuesday I hear it’s going around;
I’m off...again, knuckled white.
Wednesday I will talk myself into
Round about routes to denial.
If I say it, then it won’t come true.
And, I find comfortable restraint; bound to
Repeating it over and over and over. And again,
It feels better that way, medicated meditation.
Then Thursday everything is white. I eat
From a bland full service spectrum buffet,
Plated and nothing touches.
I won’t even sip from her cup.
By Friday I am unable to tolerate human contact.
And, I count back to the last
In order to find spared time. I’ll be free-
On Saturday what is in the air will kill me.
So, I hold my breath between rooms. Suffocated,
Sunday I become completely restricted.
I will not accept from anyone, anything
That has been anywhere other than here.
Those days, they wear me hard
And to the end, so I have become
Exhausted from the fight. I finally sleep.
Then Monday brings me back, slightly.
With a negligent handshake,
So that again Tuesday I am found,
Wringing dry, anticeptic hands.
I will not allow myself to open a door
I stay; refusal and restraint, withholding.







p.s. its got quite a grip.

Examples or it didn't happen.

Oh wait, are you complaining because of SS's fixation on Ergo Proxy? Does it bother you when he talks to HER?



Why should I give you an example when it was just said a few minutes ago by an anon that oh everyone does that to everyone.

Both mayo and SS have done it to me. And this isn't about them being friendly with other people.

This is about them say things like, "Wishing each and every one of you love, laughter, health and happiness."

But not acting like they mean it about everyone. You can say those words all you want but if you constantly ignore some people they aren't going to believe it.

MissTottenham said...

Hiya Ergo sweetie, how are you?

Yeah, back and slightly rested. Though my legs still ache.

Anonymous said...

the problem is more than 5-6 people here might like to "hear" their blog name "said". they might like to feel as though they were seen and heard.

This keeps coming up. Mayo even said himself in one of his blog posts that he didn't dare address everyoen individually in case he missed someone out. He knows how batshit insane some people are. He probably learned after SS got shit for his Christmas 2007 blogpost. SS took the time to write individual thank you notes to people that left him a gift under the blog christmas tree. Some people got pissed cos they didn't get a thank you note but when we looked to find out why it wasn't because he just didn't like them so decided to exclude them, it was because although they had left a present under the tree they had not specifically addressed it to him so he probably didn't see it. There were so many presents posted there from all the bloggers to each other as well as the ones to Mayo and SS.

Um except he puts up things individuals have said for everyone to see on the front page. Oh that isnt excluding anyone at all, nope.

Or are they gods to you?



MJ is holding them to the same standards she holds everybody to. If she thought they were gods she'd be bowing down like you do. She would feel like she had to defend them and everything they do. She would be just like you.

I'm really good thanks
it's horribly humid here now the sun is out, but I prefer it to the rain
and we have a "stop/go" guy and roadworks outside our property so it's going to be a noisy day again.

I'm just about to head off and get some groceries for a creek outing tomorrow, chips, cake, lollies good wholesome food, lol

what are you up to this last part of the week?

Anonymous said...

MJ you really aren't helping. If Mayo or SS came on the blog right now and said hello MJ, how would you feel? They can't ever say it now to you or anyone else who feels 'invisible' because it would seem forced.

But who is to blame, the people who gave him gifts? If it says "for all" then he should have knwon to click it, just because it didn't specifically write his name it doesnt mean you dont click it. He sounds a little selfish in my opinion. I think the people he left out have every right to be upset cos I would be mad too.

Oooooo Ergo, a creek outing sounds lovely. I hope you have a fantastic time.

Tomorrow I am gonna sit on my arse and enjoy pizza day. Saturday, we are taking this old lady shopping. She lives near us and we help her out. She wants us all to go out for lunch first so that will be nice.

Wait wait. Saying they are human and that I have no need to be acknowledged by them is "bowing down"?? Their attention doesn't mean any more to me than it should. I don't NEED them to acknowledge me. I'm not like that.

Sorry about the double post I will fix it later. Hello miss t I hope you feel better.



Really? Anyone can come here and say words anonymously to someone. How do you know the words were intended for them? Or if that was their intention? You just don't know. It's all an assumption. Another reason not to take things too seriously here.

5 to 6 people aren't that many and most of the people here have a nicknames that are four letters at the most.

You just can't make MJ see any other side than her own. There is being stubborn and then there is being a bull. MJ is a bull. I feel sorry for people who have to cope with her in real life but at least I don't have to.


The same could be said of you anon. And if you are so glad you don't have to deal with me why do you keep coming on and saying this about me. It will just make me talk even more.



EP you can't deny that SS talks to YOU more than he talks to ANYONE. Do you honestly think that is fair?

If SS or Mayo wants to say something to EP or miss t or who ever that is fine I have no problem with that.

What I have a problem with is the I care for you all statement and I wish everyone a happy this when they can't even be bother to say hello to or back to some people.

If someone has the ability to draw and write well they should get acknowledged. But I would say that it is a lot easier to just say hello to someone than to put their stuff on display.

Anonymous said...

5:21 Mayo and SS don't spend hours here, they pop in and out, when they can. I think he would have scanned the list for his name. Kapu told Mayo and SS to look under the tree for their presents. Maybe SS didn't feel he was included in the gifts addressed 'for all' and didn't want to be presumptious. I'm not saying that is the reason, but it might be, and if he didn't feel he was included, I'm sure we wouldn't have heard him bitching about it.

ergoproxy said...

oh that sounds good missT and what a lovely thing to do for her

the creek is a bit of a birthday thing, as my nephew and my daughter both have birthdays around now, he was only 2 so no "party" and she is having a sleepover with only 3 friends, so it's a bit of a simple "cousins get together"

People are trying to express their feelings. What's happening is what always happens. Fall in line. Don't express displeasure with Mayo or SS. Don't talk about your disappointment and your hurt in feeling invisible. Some people are happy so you should be happy with the way things are too.

Who made those rules? Whoever did you need to know
those rules suck.

People said how they felt about their presents not being ackwloedged by him and Im willing to bet he saw it, but he did nothing, not even a sorry I missed it or whatever. Do you understand? I think that says something.

Both Mayo and SS get swarmed with comments directed to them when they come on. I don't think either of them deliberately ignore people. But with everyone firing questions and comments at you it's understandable that some comments or greetings towards them might get overlooked.

Thanks MJ sweetie.

Ooooo a birthday trip, sounds lovely Ergo. Save some cake for me hahaha!

Yeah, we really like this lady. She's the one whose husband died the day before dad and they used to work together and as they have no kids, they always looked upon mum and dad as their family. It should be a nice afternoon.

Except that I did a gift that was just for Mayo and ss and still didn't get a thank you that time. So that argument doesn't stand.

I disagree. I bet he didn't see it and I think he would have been upset if he had known. Like the time RW mentioned that he missed her out of the story while he was online, he went back and amended it to include her. He even caveated the story in case he missed anyone out. I don't think either of them spend enough time here to read all the comments. Thankfully both of them miss a lot of the blog drama. When they see it they address it but when they don't they obviously can't. Like when Mayo deletes certain comments with personal info and leaves others, it's not because he doesn't care about the ones he leaves, it's because he probably hasn't seen it.

It was always the same people getting over looked. Like I said I just stopped trying to talk to them most of the time so I would just sit back and watch. So I saw it happen a lot. There was no effort made to greet the others.

Yes. That's what we're doing. We're just jealous.

Brilliant deduction.

I disagree, I feel that SS and OPJ did (and maybe do) share something very close and special and intimate. There was definitely some flirting going on between them that might have taken off if the OPS hadn't been chased off the blog by bullying them over one little thing.

There was nothing little about that dildo!

I am not yelling or calling people names. I am not making a since and I am not calling out to mayo or ss.

Someone came on last night and said how they felt. A bunch of anons felt the need to ridicule them for this, I didn't like it so I spoke out about.

No one is jealous and no one is trying to stop those two from coming on

Hello Martha, Ergo, MissT, anons and lurkers!

I just have to say that I think Martha is far from dull and uninteresting! About as far from dull drive as one can get!

People have felt invisible here and I do think that is ashame. Some of they tried for a little while; some of them tried until they gave up from exhaustion!

Some of them have left. Some of them stick around for the friends they have made here.

None should have their feelings negated. None.

If a person says: "This is how I feel", you can believe THAT IS how they feel.

If they say "I feel no one is hearing/seeing me"; you can believe they mean just that and it's not about being jealous or any other word you might want to fill the emotion line in with.

So, in conclusion, I think Martha rocks!!!! Thank you, Martha!

MissT: Stunning? But of course!
*huge wink*
Welcome back, MissT!!!

Ergo: *smooooooooch*

Hugs and Love,

Two interesting things happened to me today.

One was that I'm pretty sure I saw Emeril Lagasse buying a lottery ticket. Well, "heard" is more like. I was in the card aisle with my back to the lottery ticket desk and I heard this huge, loud familiar sounding voice though honestly I wasn't paying much attention to what they were saying. Then the clerk selling the tickets was like, "Oh hey, BAM right? Gonna kick it up a notch?" The possibly Emeril customer was all, "yeah, yeah, kicking it up a notch with the lottery, BAM, haha, yeah" etc. Then the clerk said something about the cooking show. They were both kind of loud and the clerk was very excitable.

Finally when the guy walked away with his lottery ticket I turned around to see if it was him, but all I saw was the back of him. He was this big dude with a hat on.

I was fairly certain that's who it was, but WTF was he doing buying a lottery ticket? I'd think he's got plenty of money!

The other interesting thing that happened to me today was that I bought some face cream that I thought was going to be really nice. I have usually made my own face creams and stuff but I figured I'd try something new for the hell of it. Anyway, I put it on and--BAM!--about fifteen minutes later had red welts under my eyes.

Again with the WTF.

Everything else about my day was pretty boring.

That's the one, Anon! O_O
I'm gonna have nightmares about those unicorns.

Hello SD

anima I will talk with you later

anima said...

Just to throw out the latest news...

My dad is not going to receive chemo anymore. The cancer is taking over his liver. Hospice is coming to parents house on Friday. So basically, well you get it.



And no need to say anything, I know how you all feel and just know that I appreciate it. All of it. You all have been amazing to me. Thank you. ♥

sdock10 said...

We're going to Candy Mountain!

Anima,

Thanks for that.

Is there anything we can do to make ya feel better?

Hi MJ, Jules, Smoke, MissT, Anons

I doubt that OPJ and EP and them would feel the same way you do MJ.

Does that mean that they "bow down" to Mayo and SS too?

No, because she is only talking about a certain groupof scapegoats who naturally do NOT include her group of friends. They don't count in her judgements.

anima said...

Sounds good Martha. :)

Smoke said...

Anima,

I'm so sorry. I just wish I could do more than just say that though. I really do.

sdock10 said...

Anima,

I'm so sorry to hear that.

anima said...

You guys can just be here in blogbelieve! That's all I need. :)

anima said...

"I just wish I could do more than just say that though. I really do."

I know sweetie. Thank you. All of you.

MissTottenham said...

Oh Anima sweetie. You know we all love you so much and are sending our good thoughts your way.

I wish we could offer more than words.

February 19, 2009 6:38 PM

If you mean anons who have nothing better to do than take what someone has said and twist it around to be a shot at someone else than yes that is who I am talking about.

As I have said unless you are in on on private conversations with people you don't know what I have said to people.

But keep it up one day you might actually be right.

sdock10 said...

Yeah, words just don't seem like enough.

Smoke said...

Well, I have to go pick up LHM but I'll be back later.

See you guys!

MissTottenham said...

See you later smoke.

anima said...

Bye Smoke!

Aww, you guys. I hope I didn't bring you down. Your words are enough. You have no idea.

anima said...

Where is FASC? Has she been around?

Anonymous said...

Bye, Princess!

Anima, of course you didn't bring anything down!

MissTottenham said...

You never bring us down Anima sweetie.

Carrie said...

Anima, I am sorry to hear your news. The only comfort I have to give is that the hospice people are usually really really great and help out a lot. I will be thinking of you and I wish I could do more.

MissTottenham said...

I am eating chocolate caramel eggs.

My cousin works in the factory where they make loads of sweets and they made too much for easter. He gets to bring some home.

*chomp chomp* It's such *chomp chomp* a hardship *chomp chomp* helping him *chomp chomp* dispose of them *gulp*

Martha Smith-Jones said...

anima i sent you an email

anima said...

Those sound yummy MissT. I'm sorry you had to help dispose of them, must be a struggle!

Thanks Carrie. ♥

anima said...

An email! I haven't checked that thing in forever! Thanks MissT, I'll be sure to look.

anima said...

Mayo, I just want to say thank you. For all of this.

And of course a big hug for new post so quickly!

I love hearing from you. But you already knew that. ;)

MissTottenham said...

Hiya Carrie sweetie, how are you?

My ickle caramel eggs come in a packet of two and look like two ickle testicles hahaha!

Carrie said...

Anima, I feel the same way about Mayo, it's cool that it's been an avenue to meet so many people of coolness.

Anonymous said...

Hi Carrie!

Misty, you made me so damn hungry just now. >_< Grrr.

Oh man, so I decided to just give up and tune my guzheng to a regular old do re mi scale and now it sounds kinda lame. I mean, I can play Sakura and Ode to Joy and a little Chinese song called "Little Swallow" (LOL) but it feels cheesy doing it in a Western scale.

Plus when you strum the whole thing and it's all tuned to pentatonic scales it sounds so pretty. I just don't know which way I like it.

Anonymous said...

Me too, Carrie and Anima.

MissTottenham said...

Yummy yummy chocolate K.

Carrie said...

And now, I must away with the parting taunt to Miss T, my pizza is here!!!! Hi and Bye K, and bye Miss T and anima.

anima said...

Bye Carrie! Enjoy the pizza!

Damn that sounds good right about now...

MissTottenham said...

Goodnight Carrie *leaves trail of drool in her wake*

anima said...

You can play the guzheng?



Haha, I have no idea what that is!

Anonymous said...

Stop it, you guys, stop it with the food talk! ;)

anima said...

MissT, I didn't see an email from you. :(


Oh and how is everything going with the job...did you pass the test last week?

Martha Smith-Jones said...

Hello carrie

anima said...

"Stop it, you guys, stop it with the food talk!"

I KNOW!!! I have nothing to eat here. :( Well, I do, but nothing sounds good. I hate when that happens.

MissTottenham said...

Oh dear Anima sweetie. I think MJ left you the email comment. I went straight to your blog to talk to you sweetie.

It went OK. I passed the medical and got all the paperwork done but I failed the fitness test like I knew I would.

At least now I know what I've gotta do. You get three chances to pass it.

I'd never done a beep test before and didn't know how to jusge the timing.

Anyway, back there in a few weeks.

MissTottenham said...

Yumm, this caramel is sooooooooo good.


*ducks flying objects*

anima said...

Serious ^_~ questions for you guys:

Umm is anyone totally bored with Rock of Love Bus?

And who is totally grossed out when he kisses? Ugghhh!

Sorry for the randomness, I'm surfing channels and I thought about last weeks episode...

sdock10 said...

I'm back. I had to see off LHM.

Hi Carrie!


ROL-Bus? Boring? Nooooo! Digusting?
Yessssssssss!

ergoproxy said...

hello again

hi k and carrie and smoke and sdock and anima who weren't here before

anima *HUGE HUG* so sorry

anima said...

Haha, I'm so stupid. Sorry MissT, sorry Martha! I totally put MissT's name on your name. I got your email Martha, thank you so much.♥

Smoke said...

And I'm back! Hey Carrie!

I'm hooked on Sober House right now. Shifty ends up in the hospital tonight. And Rodney goes back to the place where the police beat him, I think.

Bret is ewwwwwww but I can't stop watching it!

Smoke said...

Damn, gotta go get cigarettes. >.<

Back in a few!

anima said...

MissT, I couldn't imagine doing a fitness test right now! I would have a heart attack! At least there are three chances and you tried it already. Next time will be so much better! I wish you the best!

ergoproxy said...

I haven't seen Rock of Love Bus but from what I've heard I don't think I do

MissTottenham said...

LOL it's ok Anima sweetie.


Welcome back Smoke, Solly and Ergo.

MissTottenham said...

Thank you Anima sweetie, I hope I'll do better next time.

sdock10 said...

Oooh! Oooh! I forgot to tell you guys that we had a real life celebrity come and visit our town a few weeks back.

She hung out at Rock n Roll Bowlin and The Fun Place (it used to be called a Sports Park but a murder was committed there and ownership changed hands and so did the name), she taught some folks to skate, made motivational speeches and what not and filmed a segment for Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel.

Wanna know who it was?

You guys are gonna be so jealous. OH MY GOD!

Okay, I'll tell you...

She was an Olympian.

anima said...

Smoke, I was just a little bored last week. Maybe it was my mood.

But yes seriously, his kissing is just so gross to me!

anima said...

Must be a skater, ummm Dorothy Hamill? sp.

sdock10 said...

He does kind of try and suck or chew their lips off.

ergoproxy said...

missT I remember beep tests, they are hard.
But now you know what to expect you can train up for next time

anima said...

Hi Ergo!

sdock10 said...

Ummm, nope, think a little more recent, think, celebrity boxing, think "Whyyyyyyyyyy me?" (except not her, the other one)

ergoproxy said...

The Fun Place (it used to be called a Sports Park but a murder was committed there and ownership changed hands and so did the name)

that just struck me as so obscurely funny

was it Nancy Kerrigan?

MissTottenham said...

Yeah, thanks Ergo. I have ten weeks so I'll get my running shoes out.


I have no idea who it is solly.

ergoproxy said...

OH!
Tonya Harding!

sdock10 said...

Hi Ergo,

I know. It's so fucked up, but so true.

Not Nancy.

anima said...

I'm trying to find a photo of him kissing. Haha! I'm scared!

MissTottenham said...

Solly, is she still as chubby and limp haired as the last time I saw her on TV?

sdock10 said...

Yep, Tonya Harding. I just wanted to share with you guys. My hometown is so silly. I remember when Jules was getting all this shit about where she lived, and Smoke and I just thought it was hilarious, because we seriously come from crazytown.

It's my crazytown though.

But the way they just hyped her visit was insane! She was coming to town to tell the "real" story which she never did. It was billed as a good business opportunity for local shops to have her there and shit.

sdock10 said...

MissT,

I didn't go see her while she was here. I only saw newspaper photos, but she looks EXACTLY the same.

After a whirlwind weekend of activities and appearances by former Olympic figure skater Tonya Harding, tonight’s capstone event at the Central Square Complex downtown promises to be interesting, at the very least. Following a BBQ dinner, Harding will speak to the crowd about her personal history from childhood through the present, including the scandal that rocked the world in 1994 when her chief rival in the sport, Nancy Kerrigan, was viciously attacked at skating practice.
Two national television camera crews, one from HBO and one from Fox, have been filming Harding interacting with the community for the past couple of days. She has already made two appearances at Rockin’ Roll Bowling, on Thursday night and on Friday afternoon, and will return there for a final meet-and-greet today from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. She also spent time on Thursday morning being filmed hunting and then fishing at Ken’s fish Hatchery. Both of these activities were captured by the film crews for future airing.
On Friday, Harding spent the middle part of the day giving some of her time for various charitable organizations in the community. She has said that this is one her favorite things to do these days, and it was one of the conditions she insisted upon for the visit to Douglas, according to Tim Pafford of Tim Pafford Promotions, which coordinated the series of weekend events with Harding.
Tonya also made an appearance at The Fun Place on Friday evening from 6:30 to 8:30 to give skating demonstrations and interact with the public. The event was planned and promoted as a skate/dance party for teens, but all ages were present. For many, this was a highlight of the weekend, to see her skating and having a good time with the kids. One participant commented, “I was surprised that she was so nice, and she seems really normal.”
The weekend will conclude tonight with the dinner and speech by Harding, followed by a short Q&A session for those in attendance. Pafford has promised that the evening will be one to be remembered, with Harding revealing all, from how she rose to figure-skating stardom, to the truth about her involvement with the Nancy Kerrigan attack, to how she has redefined her life in the time since, and where she plans to go from here.
It will be interesting to see what kind of effect the upcoming television exposure will have on the Douglas/Coffee County area as the programs are aired. Footage will be seen on a future episode of the Fox series “Strollin’ with Nolan” and on an upcoming feature for HBO’s “Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel.”

anima said...

Okay, nevermind that's just weird.

O_o






So it was Tonya!

ergoproxy said...

well as long as no one slightly better was going to try and appear at the same time as her in a rival store it was probably safe to have her
I find it incredible that she has become "famous" after she was involved in something so dreadful
and they always hype people, the whole "the true story" is always a letdown

I have a magazine article on how Tom Cruise is going to try and "win back his female fans" by not doing stuff like jumping on couches, preaching scientology and wearing sunglasses and acting so superior all the time

feels like he might just be a little too late for that train

MissTottenham said...

LOL solly. That's funny. She's such a looker these days ain't she.

Smoke said...

One participant commented, “I was surprised that she was so nice, and she seems really normal.”

LOL! Bwahahaha!

sdock10 said...

ergoproxy said...
well as long as no one slightly better was going to try and appear at the same time as her in a rival store it was probably safe to have her



Ergo, FTW! That comment made me laugh out loud, which I know is so sad, but still...

anima said...

"feels like he might just be a little too late for that train"

Way late!


Tonya is something isn't she?

ergoproxy said...

oh that article, how it says "interacting with the community" reminds me of when people do documentaries on visiting a group of mountain gorillas or something, like it's "alien' to her

"Dr Norman has spent the last 3 months interacting with the gorillas, they are beginning to accept him. Now he plans to do a figure skating demonstration to see their reactions"

it's a poor choice of word

but it is good your area will get some tv time, it can't hurt to have your area featured where people will see it

sdock10 said...

My favorite line from the whole article is how it was supposed to be a "night to remember for all".

sdock10 said...

We're normally on the news for much more scandolous stuff. Seriously, I think we had a whole episode of America's Most Wanted dedicated to some people who used to live down here.

Smoke said...

Ahhh, well, our town usually gets alot of tv time but not for things you want to hear about! O_o

ergoproxy said...

sdock :]

Smoke said...

OMG, STFU SOLLY! GET OUTTA MY HEAD!

anima said...

I gotta go for a bit.


See you all later. :)




P.S. Thanks for letting me share all that crappy stuff you and for all your support. ♥

Smoke said...

Love you, Anima! You know we're here for you. ♥

ergoproxy said...

smoke we get the same, it really only ever makes the news for something bad, which sucks when there is a whole lot of good stuff but that isn't "news"

ergoproxy said...

bye anima

always remember you and your dad and family are in all our thoughts ♥

MissTottenham said...

See you later Anima sweetie.


It's almost 1am here so I am gonna have to love you and leave you.

Take care guys and have a great weekend.

Nighty night xxxxx

Smoke said...

True, Ergo. This really is a nice place to live once you get past the drugs and unsolved murders!

Nighty-night, MissT! Sweet dreams!

I gotta go shower. Be back later!

Anonymous said...

That's funny. TC should do more comedy.

sdock10 said...

Love you, Anima!

Wow. I just watched the Harding segment on Real Sports and, well, just wow. Not much more I can add to that.

Okay, time to shower and maybe have some cereal.

Raisin Bran EXTRA FTW!

Or should I say, "Rainin Bran"?

ergoproxy said...

I think TC needs to realise he just isn't that great an actor, he was really only famous with women because of his looks, a lot of his roles were never a great stretches of acting ability. He's been entertaining but by no means awe inspiring.
He just comes across now as so full of himself

ergoproxy said...

goodnight missT sweet dreams

Amyranth said...

It's Rainin Bran? O_o

ergoproxy said...

Hi amy
it would make a bit of a mess, but a healthy fibre rich mess

Amyranth said...

It's good for all that extra fat floating around in your arteries I hear.

How's it going with you today? Any more bargain shoes?

Anonymous said...

A rare act of sportsmanship

The coach never considered any other option.
It didn't matter that his DeKalb, Ill., High School basketball team had ridden a bus two and a half hours to get to Milwaukee, then waited another hour past game time to play. Didn't matter that the game was close, or that this was a chance to beat a big city team.

Something else was on Dave Rohlman's mind when he asked for a volunteer to shoot two free throws awarded his team on a technical foul in the second quarter. His senior captain raised his hand, ready to go to the line as he had many times before.

Only this time it was different.

"You realize you're going to miss them, don't you?" Rohlman said.

Darius McNeal nodded his head. He understood what had to be done.

It was a Saturday night in February, and the Barbs were playing a non-conference game on the road against Milwaukee Madison. It was the third meeting between the two schools, who were developing a friendly rivalry that spanned two states.

ergoproxy said...

no, no bargains today, I did buy 3 new shoe boxes though, the fold up plastic ones, I have found it's the best way to keep shoes, I used to just have a pile in the cupboard and you can never find one of a pair, or they get wrecked.

ergoproxy said...

8:46 what a lovely gesture

ergoproxy said...

AAGH
as if the sounds of road working machinery isn't annoying enough (vroom vrooom beep beep beep) etc, there are a few trucks who, though they are warned up the road they have to stop, use the flipping Jake brake!!

Amyranth said...

Ergo, tell me about it. I had a nice pair of gold flats with star cutouts, and they got nailed badly by a pair of my heels, with Mister's boot gunk somehow attached. I was not pleased, but it's my own damn fault.

Anon, that is really touching.

Amyranth said...

*rubs her ears*

We used to live on a road, aptly named Industrial Drive, and they actually fined truckers for using the jakes after a certain time of day. The road, although really the only way for them to get through the town, was actually closed after 5pm to all truck traffic.

ergoproxy said...

it will however be lovely not to have the potholes, so I don't begrudge the work, but it is right in front of our property, about a 1/6 mile stretch and only one lane, so then they'll do the other side. I hope they don't work over the weekend too.

Amyranth said...

Ergo, if they're typical workers, they won't.

ergoproxy said...

the towns here all have to be jake brake free, but we are on just a road out in the sticks and I dare say he was going too damn fast as usual.

the beeping is probably the worst, you know graders and rollers have that back up beeping warning thing?

well we have 2 graders and 2 rollers a tar truck and gravel truck, it's a lot of beeping

ergoproxy said...

I actually don't mind the sound of the jake, but it gave me one hell of a fright being so close

Amyranth said...

Ergo, that's why they wouldn't allow jakes in the town, the houses were pretty close to the road, and yeah, those things give you a nasty shock at 2am!

And the beeping is the worst part. You almost wanna hang out the window screaming "BEEP BEEP BEEP MOTHERFUCKERS!!! HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT SHIT, HUH?"

Amyranth said...

*re-reads her comment*

Okay, so maybe I only did it once.

Martha Smith-Jones said...

amy 7's

ergoproxy said...

I haven't done that yet amy!

Original Punk J said...

What a touching story about the young man who lost his mother, and all the others who showed their support for him. Seems there ARE still good people in the world.

Anybody home tonight?

Anonymous said...

YAY! I finished the first half of the first disk of RE2!

*dances*

Then I just spent about an hour at ign.com reading ooooold reviews and articles about my favorite games. Because I am ridiculous like that. I did manage to find the first review of FFVII in America, from Sep. 4 1997.

I should just go and get "FFVII" tattooed on me somewhere or something. ^_^

Anonymous said...

And, I'm not saying that as in "LOL I totally should do that, yeah right." I mean I actually considered it and still sometimes think about it!

I have so many ideas for tattoos that I want, I don't even know where to start. I also really want to get a Shakespeare quote tattooed somewhere, too. "Born in a merry hour." I think that would be really cool actually.
