Here anything yet on the job situation?

I was never and i mean never an online joiner until SG... what was the difference... for me it represented a community of like minded folks despite age and background. Would i join any other one... nope!

Hah! That's funny! Those guys were dicks. The only one I still speak to is Dave Dubiner. I never got into the scooter boy aspect either. The SF scene was alot more fun, but that whole skin/rude boy idiot bullshit drove me away. We've probably met somewhere over the years -I wonder if you were at a show/rally around 1985 in San Diego. I had a band called Wally Danger. I think it was us and the Deadbeats and The Birminghams. It was a big SD event, if I recall correctly. The place was packed.

Wow. That was amazing.

Okay... this was all very zen!

a couple of pounds in one day is no big deal... even for a guy!

to help... the EMO label basically came about how cherry said in her post. but if you want the archetypical band, the ones who started the whole thing... just get one record from dischord label, a band from ian mackeye (fugazi, minor threat, etc)

the band and the self titled album is EMBRACE. an amazing album and a way to truly know what emo is and where it was born from.

the no carb diets are the best..... i lost 25 pounds and have kept it off with limited carbs.

Very low carb, high fiber, low fat is what I'm doing. Its been working too but I got sloppy and also hit one of those nasty set points. I think, considering that absolutly nothing on you jiggles except what is suposed too, I'll take your advice and cut out all carbs for a while.

heya grey ...glad you dig the group. I had some major reservations starting the thing along (mostly of the sort you mentioned), but then I made the leap. I suspect that missy, spooky n crew had to mull it over for a while ---seems like there was quite a wait before it was activated. As you can see from the response, I'm glad I did it ...it was something I felt wasn't talked about, but there was a need to connect with others and share our experiences ...raising kids outside the mainstream can often be daunting, if not scary. I still get a little weirded by the thoughts of freaky old felchers checking out pix of my kids, but they could just as easily be checking them out when we walk around town ...bottom line: I try not to let the fear thing dominate --the majority of people on SG are truly righteous and incredible people.

from your pic, you could pass as Tim Robbins' brother.

heard you at the lit club. i can't seem to get through Big Sur and the Oranges... i pick it up occasionally. what did you think?

Once a deviant, Intellectual freak, always a deviant intellectual freak. Now, if you where ONLY deviant or ONLY intellectual or ONLY a freak, there might be a chance of one day waking up and finding yourself normal, it could manifest in many ways, the most common being: Finding yourself staring at the television, nodding at commercials. But since you are blessed with all three traits, I think you are safe. (its okay to pretend at normality in order to survive.)

Sinus infections seem to be taking over the planet. Maybe there is some new epidemic of sorts.

I get them all the time unfortunately. About as often as I got swimmer's ear during swim team.

you're right about us taking our health for granted. funny how it takes getting sick for us to remember ourselves. I have always thought, since I was a kid, about how being sick can be a small blessing. I serves as a reminder of what our bodies can be when they are well. (I'm not saying you should be glad you are sick, It sounds as if you have been through hell) I'm glad to hear you are fealing a bit better. Do take care. Two runs of Antibiotics can really hurt your immune system and upset the balance of your body.

Winter in general depresses me. (not just January) actually to be honest I'm a serious grinch and hate Christmas. Christmas, traffic, and over-consumption depresses me. There are things I love about winter and sometimes the cool air, the naked trees, the white sky, make me love the winter. But in general it feels like it's morning all day long and I don't want to get out of bed.

Thank you for the kind words.

oh that sucks. i'm so glad i don't have them allrgy things.
