Hello everyone! I have officially laughed until I lost my breath, got a stomach ache, and no sound was coming out!

:) It was fantastic for my mood!

Hope you're all having a fun evening as well. Especially you Vicki, please let go of the guilt with regards to your s/o, he's a grown man. You're both added to the ever-growing prayer list. . .

QueenV: Don't beat yourself up and do something for you. Grats on laying down the smokes again. A journey of a thousand steps begins with one.

Top: The juice may need to steep, but are you vaping it the same voltage and same gear as you did in the store?

Hello everyone, I hope you're having a good evening. :)

yep, i asked to use my PV instead of the 650mah ego they were using. id rather use my own and see how it tastes at the same voltage. im thinking it could be that they were using a CE4 and im using a bcc with cotton wick?n it just seems a little more sharper (like citrus, or tangy) than the tester did.

I have nothing useful or productive to talk about, so I'm going to answer random things from the past couple pages in no particular order of importance, mmkay?

Cranky sick kids: I just drag them and something to occupy myself up to my bed and let them snuggle. I don't see any reason to be a hard *ss over not feeling good (though I can see it helping sanity, so whatever, this is just a me thing). And since my kids love water, if there's snuffly nose/throat stuff going on, they may be stuck in the shower for a while to help get them breathing a bit easier. Hopefully the kid passes out in a way that you can extricate yourself from their super cuddled grip and go on about your day.

QV: I highly doubt anyone will judge you for being cranky/less than enthused with situations involving your SO. I'm pretty sure everybody can be pretty derogatory about theirs at least sometimes. It's a stressresponse, and even more so if there's history/background BS going on too. I say vent if ya need it, I, at least, will listen (and good to see you around again :) )

I guess that's about all I got. huh. I thought there was more.

    IMO--- Citrus tends to dull down and meld with steeping. It's kind of prominent in 'fresh' juice and dulls down/mixes in as it ages. The flavor stays but in the beginning it can be a lot sharper than it as after some time has passed.

    Course if you weren't tasting actually citrusy stuff in the sampler and are just using it as a descriptor of the 'right now' issue, I have no ideas.

    I'm in the snuggle camp, no matter how annoying it is. Since I also have a teen I am reminded daily that they won't always want to be close to you. Sorry the little one isn't feeling well!

    Kittyn, how are things with the male? Still vaping or should I say sending you on wild goose chases for elusive liquids?

    I'm going to shut down now, need to try to get a decent night's sleep. Hope to see you all tomorrow with renewed vigor and a sunny attitude, since today it was another word that starts with 's' and ends with 'y' but that's all behind me now! Sleep well friends!

    LOL, he's still kicking my .... on cigs not smoked. I've firmly stated I will order his stuff if and when I find it in stock, not before.

    He's now asking if I'll search for flavorings for some strange combination that he thinks should taste good.

    I really am surprised he's decided that juice is where his interest lies in vape stuff. I knew if he started actually LOOKING at it instead of accepting whatever I handed him, he'd find something he HAD to fiddle with, it's how he is. But since he is normally more drawn to building and find tuning things, I figured he'd go hardware.

    I haven't seen him so blatantly interested in a new area/undertaking/hobby thing in quite a while. Odd, and it would be concerning except I know my male well enough to know he does not admit defeat. If it takes him forever, if he decides to do something it will be done. I guess on the scale of 'Oh god, help!' his goal of coming up with 2-3 juices that he considers awesome is pretty low, so yup. My male is being my male. Stubborn brat.

    :( anyone havea nd advise for what i posted last night?

    dealing with a child who is getting a cold and only wants to cuddle and mess with daddys mouse/keyboard/phone.

    hoping that the contest i won will be delivered. afraid it got lost somehow. mail hasnt come yet today that i know of, but its getting kinda late for mail to be delivered.

    using a Pina Colada flavor i bought in a store and it tastes nothing like what they had in the sampler tank.

    He wants to be just like you, and wants your attention. You will have to split time with him maybe get a corded mouse at a thrift shop and a keyboard and old cell. set him up nest to you to "play like dad" maybe an old TV as the monitor

    I just got back from visiting Jason in the hospital. He has a deteriorated disc in his neck and possibly a spinal infection. He's been in pain for a while and it finally became unbearable. His parents came and took him to emergency yesterday. He was crying. He had an MRI this morning and will probably need surgery. He quit his job a month ago, due to the pain, and has no insurance. The job didn't offer insurance anyway. I feel so bad for him. He has a history of drug abuse, and doesn't really take care of himself. He smokes and drinks way too much. I took him a change of clothes and an ecig setup. That is really all I can do for him. It's kind of a relief to have him out of the house, he's been a horrible grouchy bear lately and a drain on my finances. Please don't judge me too harshly for saying that. There is a lot of back story that I can't get in to right now.

    I understand, please take this time to be good to yourself! I hope he improves and gets all the help he needs. No one here will judge you, we didn't walk that mile in your shoes. If any of us did then, we understand completely.

    That is the difference, when I get juice, first I drip it, try it in different attys, on different devices to find the best taste, it takes time but its worth it, I bet I throw very little juice aside compared to most, I have more work to clean my attys out more often, but it's worth it.

    Anyone with the Halo Belgium cocoa use it to change a bland or bleh flavor, It is so strong that it just takes a few drops. Maybe 4-6 drops.
