I wanted to do a, "He told you so!" dance around the mother. Is that wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmotherofpirl Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 [quote name='CatherineM' post='1814390' date='Mar 23 2009, 12:18 AM']See, I never think I'm in any danger. I'm a very large woman, with a very big crutch. I've got 100lbs. on even the biggest of the prostitutes. The Northern Alberta Brain Injury Society reviewed my book for their next magazine, and the editor described me as a risk-taker. That's pretty descriptive. I'm a windmill tilter, but I'm grounded until spring. The Johns can't run me off, but the ice has. That and the primate I live with who would like me to go about wrapped in bubble wrap.[/quote] Rotfl. I have the same problem, I hear trouble and I instinctively run [i]toward[/i] it, not away. The males in my life have threatened bubble wrap, or if that doesn't work a GPS tracker with an alarm system. I am very small - think of an apple on stilts and I'm thinking St Bernards would work. I took one for a "walk" tonight and very few people stayed on the same side as the street. Trouble is, now I can't walk and probably won't move by morning. do you have a cell phone with camera?

I got one for Christmas. I don't even use the regular phone, so it was a surprise. He decided I needed one in case I fell in a snow bank or got abducted by aliens. Making a schizophrenic paranoid isn't exactly hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live surrounded by the bad guys as well, so I pay lots of attention, and take lots of pics of plates. Drives my males up a wall, but I want the morons to know someone is paying attention.

Nihil Obstat Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 I would literally get a subscription to EWTN the very same second you announced your show. No matter what it took. I think it's channel 130 for me. I'd have to buy a bunch of other channels with it in some kind of package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't a coffee or orange juice be more appropriate?[/quote] I would. I might not drink it right away, but I would at least not hesitate to buy one. I read this on snopes just yesterday. In fact, I knew what this thread would say before I opened it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
