I like to play football and guitar from amazon.com because they highlight random words in a post...

i HATE that they did that this weekend. bitches.

i'm going over to a friend's house in a few minutes now that it's finally cooled down enough to walk outside without wanting to collapse.

REDBABY said:

I know....the only problem is I have too many different ones to chose from so I feel I must try them all....

That and I hope it helps the headache since the 3 Aleve's today did not touch it.

I try

shanti0608 said:

Tylenol Sinus is and dark chocolate…any chocolate really is great for any sinus headache and falls.

feel better...

shanti0608 said:

I think you will be more confused of the range over here in UK.

You will just have to try THEM ALL

I am sure you will enjoy doing so anyway

statuesqque said:

Thank you...I feel like a freaking idiot for falling like I did. I am glad no one saw me really. I almost fell on one of my coworkers - came down near her after hitting several things on my way. Everyone heard it - what an idiot!
I was rushing around and pissed off...someone was telling me to slow down.
Now I have to because I really hurt myself.
Though in my defense a co-worker left some things out that initially caused the fall but I know she did not mean for me to fall.
I do not have any Tylenol sinus here but PLENTY dark chocolate

REDBABY said:

We have many different dark chocolates here now as well. Now that they say it is good for you..it is the new health food...lol

I think I have 10 different kinds in my fridge right now...
I was PMS'ing and someone was trying to help.

I am all for trying new dark chocolates - sounds great

shanti0608 said:

don't ya hate that, that immediate "I feel like an idiot" and then you look around to see if anybody saw you fall...been there many times. i can't remember if it's heat or cold that's good for the soreness.

and the chocolate will definitely hold you over till the morning.

REDBABY said:

Sure, though I'd rather just watch you suck the chocolate off it.

But that can be kinda fun . When Im not in my office doing paper and production stuff I'm usually smack dab in the middle of a bunch of nutsos for 12-13 hours straight, taking in all their energy and dealing with temper tantrums. The personalities on the org are usually a hilarious relief from all of that for me (plus it gives me a chance to be in an English speaking "environment"!). Seriously, there are some nights wwhen I would rather skip out on client/team dinner (because I'm just so TIRED of even LOOKING at those people ), and I'd rather spend the time reading a news link from here or laughing my ass off at some of the posts. This place is pure entertainment

That's true. My job is like a lunatic asylum. I work for a non-profit agency and the grant check has not come in yet, so NO bills or payroll can be paid and this has been going on for a month and a half now. Imagine the morale of no employees getting paid and me having to dole out a few dollars here and there so people can buy groceries and a bus pass.

Entertaining, sure, but not in a fun way.

Last night I actually went out with my Sweetie...we went shopping, then went to a club, had a few drinks, got in a fight on the way home, went to bed, now I am sitting here on the org.

I think I would have had more fun, if I had just stayed home last night, and talked to all of you.

Last night we went to Chilis.

Where (I was actually gonna start a thread about this but now I don't have to) we went without the kids. His dad watches them every Fri so we can go out.

Anyways, at Chilis, there was a couple next to us with their little boy who had to be my sons age and I watched the Dad, FLIP OUT ON HIM. Saying I TOLD YOU TO SIT STILL NOW FUCKIN SIT STILL. The mom kept looking at her menu without even looking up. The boys was in tears and didn't budge and I could see in his face that he was just a ball of nerves.

I watched with shock, and whispered to my husband and he said, well you know you get very aggravated with Noah too, and you don't know the circumstance. Maybe he was misbehaving really bad. I thought...okayyy this is true.

So I kept watching as the boy tried to get the crayons out of the cup to color his kiddie menu and he was a wreck and was having a hard time. I watched the parents talk to eachother and completly ignore the little boy and not even say ONE word to him. I watched the Dad occasionally glance down at him in disgust. I watched the mom not even TOUCH her little boys arm or pat his head or touch his leg under the table after or during the dad yelling at him. And as wrong as it is, to go over eachothers heads when parenting, when my little boy is crying after being reprimanded it would take wild horses for me not to atleast show SOME affection.

Then I watched the waitress bring out his soda. (YES SODA) and I watched hom try to drink it with a hard time and I watched the Dad AGAIN flip out and say YOU ASK US IF YOU WANT A SIP!!!!!

I BIT MY LIP so hard thinking, you fuckin assholes! Why didn't you HELP him rite off the bat. Your sitting there FUCKING IGNORING HIM!!!!

The mom didn't even tell him his picture was noce or anything.

So I get really upset, and yes I had a couple 23 ozs by this point and held back tears and told my husband I'm gonna go get that little boy, and I'm being loud about the parents by this point.

Jer says, Daniela, Shut Up before you get yourself killed. :rollinghiseyes:

Anyway, I'm going on, but when we left I told him I want to adopt, or do foster care, and I think he may just agree if I keep on him.

Soooo, then we went to Target and bought kitchen stuff, and then we went to Toys R us and bought Daisy a keyboard, and Noah a dump truck.

Went home played with my kids, told them about the little boy and hugged them tight.

I am often amazed at how some people treat children

both in negitive ways and positive

statuesqque said:

Awww thank you

TotalANXiousNESS said:

The mom was probably under the power of the dad's rage too. Maybe if she had shown some affection to the boy, all hell would have broken loose, for her and the kid.
