I sold my bookstore. Made slightly over double what it initially cost me, and got to keep all my stock. It's in storage now. Don't think I'm going to start a new shop right away. I'm taking some time for me and my girl. She's taking leave very soon, and we're going to find a nice beach to lay on somewhere and sip island drinks... Read More
You said, and I quote,"5. She tried to tell me my copy of Alien was broken becasue it had the black bars at the top and bottom of the screen."
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! OMFGLMFAO!!!
I swear to God I thought I was one of the only people to ever experience that paticular form of boneheadedness (look, I made up a new word, lol). I was hanging out at a local video store that a buddy of mine worked at when this family of what can only be described as "trailer dwellers" came in not once, but twice, in the same evening to return movies cause, as they put it, "they had them there black lines at tha top ana bottom. We reckon they must be broken."
Thank you to all those that sent me tidings of goodwill and non-sickness. I'm feeling much less pukey.
Things are looking up. My girl's deployment may be pushed back into next year. This makes me very happy. I'm not looking forward to her going at all, but at least now we may have a little more time together before she goes.
if i could spend the day with anyone, it would be my Godmother, and we would just hang out doing all sorts of things, like go have coffee, go shopping, go to lunch, get spa treatments, go see some live music, and maybe dancing...she's an incredible person, easy to talk to, and very good sense of humor...i love her, and don't see her enough, she lives in another town 5 hours away.
1. So do you get ID-ed all the time for booze or what (like my wife, you do not look your age)?
I got carded for cigarettes the other day. That was amusing. I'm about 50/50 on getting carded for booze, though.
2. How are you doing these days?
I'm doing quite well, thanks. I'm in a great new relationship with a military girl... Read More
Ask me any question you'd like, and I'll post the answers here in my next entry. I'll do my best to answer them all. I had a blast doing this a while back. So ask away!
I've gone thru my comments and don't see any from you. If I know you outside of SG, that's cool, but you need to let me know. I have a rule about approving people who don't at least say "hello" to me - I don't do it. Hope you understand. That said, if I know you, you'll... Read More
Once when I was young, I caught fireflies and put them in a jar in my room. I delighted in their glowing butts for a couple of days. But being as I had no idea what fireflies ate, or what their life cycles required, I kept them too long and they died.
Believe it or not, I still feel guilty sometimes about inadvertantly killing them.... Read More
Yeah, it was one of the high points when we moved From the inner city to the boondocks when i was just a kid, that first night it seemed like the entire acre was strung with christmas lights.
This may sound strange, but whenever I imagine my life in the future, fireflies are always involved...there aren't any where I'm from, and I would love to see my children chasing them, and I imagine that they would put them in jars...(I do spend alot of time imagining my life in the future)
I've read about them in stories...are they as awesome as I think they are?
So I finally got around to seeing Star Wars: Episode III. It wasn't better than I'd expected, but I still had problems with it. Overall, despite how the following may sound, I really did enjoy it. It was a decent way to tie up loose ends and round out the saga. But it could've been better. I've tried to pick out the good and... Read More
I was wondering.. Does Vader and Threepio ever get a lot of face time in the Originals? 3PO was blasted apart in Cloud City before the showdown in the dinning hall, and that was really the closest that I can think of. Plus... protocol droids of that syle are comon place in the galaxy (i assume) and besides, in 20 years will you remember your microwave, even if you built it?
Edit:
PS, so this comment fits in with the rest of them.... You are amazingly beautiful. The kind of beauty that a guy would sell all of his possessions just for the chance to see you walk by. And for the rest of his day.. "I saw Deux once... oh my"
