I see you all spent last night dreaming of Christmas

Which avy do you like better? This one or Pup in a Cup?

Personally, I prefer Pup in a Cup. But it's your avvy, Dale. Whatever you choose is good.

+1 vote... Pup in a Cup is just more you

+1 pup in a cup

+1, pup in a cup. Yours is cute, but no one can resist a little puppy in a teacup. Besides, that's how I know you.

Hi everyone, I'm still here and reading, just in a weird mental place and not feeling very talkative. Nothing bad just quiet, trying to get myself away from the computer a bit more and moving around trying to get some things done.

I get that way often...know totally where you're coming from.

All I can say is I'm sorry ((((Dale))))

Me too, Dale....hugs!!!

Awww, thanks guys ... I'm just a melodramatic fool I guess, it's all right, just got me down ya' know? Forget I wrote it

Well Apparently they will still be around a little bit ... this particular person is just so genuine and ... I don't really know how to describe them ... special to me. They have been a member for a long time so I'm sure that's part of it and did give me a direct e-mail address to use
I think I understand you tho', I have another "friend" who only seems to be around when things are good ... if you know what I mean.
Like you, this is my first "forum" so I guess I need to get used to it or stop getting so close to people emotionally
Anywhoo, it's all good now

Well I'm glad that you won't be totally without a good online friend...they will still pop in now and then, and you have their email so at least you can stay in touch.

I've been a member of so many online forums and many people I connected with on a personal level, but I'm not very good at staying in touch once I stop posting. I'm that way in real life too, don't have that many friends (none that I hang out with) and I'm fine with that. For me, it isn't that I don't like people, I just don't really have whatever most people have that makes me feel a need to have deep personal connections. Maybe I've got faulty wiring or something--maybe my childhood wasn't conducive to developing that social aspect, I dunno. But I do care for people, and like having personal connections when they do happen. I know that people think I don't care though, because I'm kind of not really like everyone else in that aspect.

Alisa I can so identify with you, I don't know if it is because I was raised an only child and spent a lot of time with my grandparents or what. I do know that I don't often have a lot in common with other women wherever I live, but being used to amusing myself I don't really mind being alone most of the time. I do have a brother but he came along 5 months after my own daughter so we didn't grow up together at all, he and my daughter grew up together so he is more like a son than a brother.

[jessermay]

Well I had a bunch of stuff quoted and my computer died, haha. duh. Oh well hello all!!! It's been a busy day, baby fussy but doing better with antibiotics in him now, and sleeping peacefully. hopefully all night. I am back and forth to work, oncall, so I will check in when I can!! ((((HUGS)))) to all who need it!

 

[daleron]

Hey Alisa & Claudia, there's nothing wrong with the way you are or the way I am; we're all different

I'm probably the way I am because I grew up in an emotionally cold home life so I've always sought it elsewhere.

Well, between you guys and one VERY important PM I guess I'll be going back to Pup in a Cup soon Might be a day or two as I'm really tied up tonight and I have to work tomorrow


Opps! Good night guys & gals

 

[FinallyQuit]

Good night Dale, and everyone else, I'm outta here. Have a wonderful rest of the night!

reporting in for night duty!

Hi Karen, Night Dale.

Yeah I get it Alisa and Claudia, I tend to NOT make huge personal connections, because eventually people drift off and that is emotionally painful. It's a self-defense mechanism, whether it's for good or ill is debatable I guess.

I find I'm really tired tonight, this week has been very stressful, but at least I have some medical stuff out of the way for a while. Will be starting a new med next week (that I couldn't afford before) so that is a step in the right direction and a load off my mind.

 

[Claudia P]

Actually that isn't the reason for me at all, my best real life friends have been men because I have almost nothing in common with women in real life, I hate to shop, cook, talk on the phone, I have no interest in clothes, makeup, or decorating, going out to lunch, I don't care who has what or the latest gossip, and I have little interest in kids. I love to fish, cars, racing, and I'm very much into electronics, computers and amateur photography in addition to my artwork and crafts from time to time. I love dogs, birds, and fish, flowers, trees, clouds and the water, I can think of no better way to spend the day than sitting in the bass boat in a quiet cove and watching the birds and just enjoying the peace and quiet and all of mother nature's beauty, while trying to catch a large mouth bass, and yes I bait my own hook and take the fish off the hook myself. I'm a pretty good angler. I am uncomfortable in someone else's house and with them in mine. Like I said earlier I was raised an only child and my mom worked so I spent a lot of time with my dad and grandparents and very little time with other kids so I guess my social skills never really developed. I actually prefer online friends to real life ones since I tend to have more in common with them.

So, the scene, convenience store on my way to pick up papers.

Lay hand down. Oh paper. Pick up paper because that's what I do. Bank envelope.

Nosey+ habit= someone's. Friggin. Paycheck. Like literally. What I flipped through was about $300 and I stopped in the middle of 20s and handed it to the clerk.

Morality kicks my .... every single time.

Sorry, weird enough occurrence to be noteworthy in my day.

Hi night/early morning people's who happen to be awake.

Way to go kittyn, it's refreshing to hear of people doing the right thing. Kudos to you! Karma works both ways.

When I first went to college, there was an Ethics class that was mandatory to obtain a degree. When I went back to the same college, many years later, they didn't even offer the ethics class, let alone making it a requirement for graduation.

Pat yourself on the back, you deserve it.

 

[ShariR]

Agreed. Something good will come your way for that act. Not enough people do that anymore. Good for you, Kittyn.

We once, years ago, got to chit chatting with convenience store owner after getting gas on our TN to CT trip. Got in car and drove for about 1/2 hour, somewhere in middle of nowhere PA. Figured out we did not pay for the gas. I thought he paid, he thought I paid. Backtracked for like an hour, getting on and off exits to find the place again and finally paid the guy. He thought we were long gone. Felt good to do the right thing. Would do it again.

[kittyn]

Eh, as often as I lose my wallet with everything in it (literally, bc, ss card, debit, cash etc) and get it back, I'm already 'paid back' and then some.

I just don't get how you lose/leave behind that much cash money's

[Karen N Daytona]

sorry, I went AWOL! I felt overwhelmingly tired and had to lay down before I would pass out.

Kittyn, Bravo! you did the right thing, imagine the person's horror when they realize that they lost that money!

ok, so we all are socially inept people for whatever the reason, but I know everyone here has a heart of gold. Never cared for people that were really popular and had a lot of friends, I don't trust them, I think they are the ones that have relationship issues and flit from person to person.

Men and woman can easily be friends.

I hope I got most of the leading convo's covered LOL

And on another note, I smoked a few cigarettes today, vaping now, not sure how it happened, I was a bit stressed and was so tired and grabbed one.You all know the rest.

I will be getting back on the horse right away. I think he kicked me in the head!

Funny, in some programs for management in the local college, they have it in every class. almost guarantees a good grade, they cover it so much.

 

[Topdogie01]

I would of had a cig today if I had any or cash to buy a pack. Took son trick or treating on rainy day makeup day. About half the older peoples hones we visited I could smell cigarettes which is one of my triggers then son decided to have a melt down because he wanted to eat candy NOW instead of when we get home where I promised all he can eat of chocolate and popcorn. Then cranky child didnt fall asleep until 2am.

Im ready for bed. Gotta make new diy flavors in the morning.

 

[ShariR]

Sounds like a rough night for you top. Get yourself some sleep. Tomorrow will be better.

Think I am done for the night as well. See you tomorrow.

 

[Karen N Daytona]

good night! sweet dreams to Top and Shari!
