i CANNOT WAIT to go home and play super nintendo

I have developed a Vaporub addiction. It started the first time my mother slabbed a big glob of it under my nose around age 2, and continues on to this day.

Myspace quite honestly, makes a stalking real easy and kind of acceptable. I have looked up all kinds of folks from my past and present, I'm sure everyone does. I wouldn't feel bad or anything, its normal to be curious. It's only wierd if someone checks out the same profile like hundred times or everyday and literally stalks some else.

I've done shit all in terms of work today!

A small part of me wants to change my name when I get married solely because my boyfriend's last name is more fun to sign than mine. It's got a "gh" in the middle and it's a nice loop-de-loop to make. Mine ends with an "rs" and I always end up scrawling those letters, and it looks crappy.

[mouse]

craziness!!!

[humanist77]

wow-what a small world! There's really no mistaking that large, chiseled face-and the giant, Jewish nose, his neanderthal brow-ah, he's gorgeous..I'll PM you~

I don't think either of you have to worry about looking at profiles. If anyone who is on myspace (and even most who aren't), say that they haven't looked through profiles of old or current aquaintences or friends, they're LYING. And to this date, I don't think there is a tracking program in existence that works-I think Myspace tries to keep that from happening.

That's so funny, mouse! Did you know him at the school in western MA? (If you didn't pick up my "confession" in kvetch recently, I'm humanist's sister)

I lurk in people's myspace's too- mostly people I went to high school with, even if I didn't like them. I don't have my high school listed on mine, so they can't find me. The last time I looked, a few of them had set their pages to private, so now I'm all paranoid that they ran that program that tells you who's looking at your page, and they're like, "why is that weird girl from high school looking at my page?" and if I go to my reunion next year I'll be ostracized....y'know, more than I was in high school.

confession expressly for humanist, and it's a cringey one:

i was friends with your boyfriend in college*. i know this because i snooped on the busties myspace community page and recognized your pic from the pics you've posted here, and then recognized him in your pics, EVEN THOUGH i steadfastly refuse to join the community despite having an active myspace profile, because i like staying relatively anonymous and would prefer real life folks didn't follow me in here. i know, hypocrite and a half.


confession for anyone else on the bustie myspace community:

i've probably looked through your profile

I'M SORRY I'M CREEPY!


*either that or he has a really accurate doppelganger, but last i heard he'd ended up in chicago so unless there are two of him in the same town, which would be even creepier than me looking at your page, it's the same dude

Confession exclusive to Midwestern Mamas: I went into Macy's today. It sucked. Bad me.

[freckleface2727]

I confess - in the Morning.....
I almost rammed into the back of an suv today.
really.
1 lane road, no way to go around her, she was speeding up and slowing d o w n, speeding up a little Again, and then s l o w i n g d o w n,, all while drifting too.

I punched the accelerator and was picking up speed but tapped my brakes about 2 feet from her bumper.

she never even noticed.


I confess - in the Afternoon...
I got into a verbal altercation w/ a man driving a huge ford f-150 truck.
I was signaling to merg into the left turn lane, and out of NOWHERE, this big bully of a truck comes flying up behind me and almost wipes me off the road.
I start screaming at my rearview window, using my Whole Arms to say Do
YOu
MIND?!? (fucker)
and he backs off and gets behind me, Right on my bumper of course, yells something at me I can't understand ( I don't speak Caveman) so I flip him off and yell out my window for him to back the fuck off.

GRRRRRRR !!!!!!!!

had we been at a stopped red light I really do believe I'd have jumped out of my car and attacked him.
seriously,. what an asswhipe.


I am convinced that this area has an abnormally high concentration of Bad Drivers.

I confess to being pretty sure I have Road Rage and need to know- is there an actual Treatment for it bc I'm afraid I'm going to have a stroke behind the wheel of my car at this rate.
if I die this way, no one who knows me will be suprised.

[culturehandy]

Doodle, I would also love that!

(((mando))) good for you!

(((ratgrl))) I hope you are okay!

Freckle, this does give me hope!

Confession, I stopped smoking weed for the new man. I think he is truly worth it. Although I really want some. It's been a little while since I had some, but it was making me feel sluggish, and now that I am working out and going to take supplements I don't want to smoke for a while, so the man was just the final push I needed.

[sybarite]

I'm having recurring fantasies about an alternate life I could be living right now somewhere else in a nicer flat, with less staid friends generally having more fun than I am here.

I think I understand why I'm feeling this way but it's a strong tug, albeit to something that is not real. I'm kind of indulging it too.

(((Mando))) Good for you!

[sixelacat]

OMG, doodle, I've so often wished for EXACTLY the same thing! I even tried describing it to friends once, until they started backing away slowly and reaching for tranquilizer darts.....I do have a Happy Bunny flip chart propped up in the back of my car, so if you walk by you get to read things like "You Suck Big Time" and other happy missives. It's just not the same, though....

[pollystyrene]

I found a spiral-bound book once of bold-printed signs you could hold up to other drivers.

I've considered making my own- "Hang up and drive" (though someone could use that one on me, on occasion ) "Get your ass out of the fast lane" (that would need to be printed backwards so they could read it in the mirror) And some positive ones- "thank you for scooting up so I can turn right on red" "love your bumper sticker!" "sorry for cutting you off!!"

Oh, and I'm seriously considering having a custom-made bumper sticker done, or suggesting it to unamerican.com that says, "Not intimidated by your SUV"

[humanist77]

Doodle, I have wished for exactly that as well, and with the right skills, it could be done-but it can't be legal-think of all the accidents that would cause!

[doodlebug]

confession: whenever I am driving, I always wish I had one of those LED marquees on the top of my car, and a keypad on the dashboard, so that I could type messages to other drivers. Messages like: "Get the fuck out of the fastlane, slowass!" or "The bigger the SUV/pickup truck, the smaller the penis!" or "If you don't stop tailgaiting me, I'll stop really suddenly and it'll be on YOUR insurance if you hit me!"

[freckleface2727]

((((((mando))))) you keep on amazing me sweetie.

it sounds as if your dr is pretty smart ratgrl, enjoy that disabilitly time I hope you are ok?
(((((ratgrl))))))

I confess: to having this weird sort of compulsion for coloring in words in ads in my phone book when I look something up. you can flip thru it and tell where I've been due, but it's only the open outline words, not the ones solidly filled w ink already.

[ratgrl]

Mando, you're a stronger person than I am! I'm pretty sure that had I been in your shoes, I'd have succumbed to the temptation. But you definitely did the right thing.

Confession: My doctor put me off work for another month, even though my depressed mood is finally abating. However, I did just have 2 breast lumps removed in the space of one week (i.e. two separate surgeries), so my doctor figured that between the physical and mental stress of that, I'd need more time off from work. I didn't argue, and I'm going to try and make the most of my work-free month. Disability checks, here I come! Yippee!

[mandolyn]

i just passed up an opportunity to party with nutsogalpal, who i really miss. but she was off to get coke with her cokehead friend, and i know i'd do it with them. it's been over a year (except for one slip in december) but i still can't even be around it.

but i REALLY REALLY wanted to say yes. and now i'm bumming fiercely.

[grrrlyouwant]

my pda is full of smutty romance novels.
