At last a guy has taken the time to write down this all. Finally, the guys' side of the story. We always hear "the rules" from the female side. Now here are the rules from the male side. These are our rules! Please note.. these are all numbered "1" ON PURPOSE!
1. Men ARE not mind reader
2. Shopping is NOT a sport. And no, we are never going to think of it that way.
3. Crying is blackmail.
4. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one: Subtle hints do not work! Strong hints do not work! Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!
5. Yes and No are perfectly Acceptable answers to almost every question.
6. Come to us with a problem only If you want help solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
7. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.
8. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 Days.
9. If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't Expect us to act like soap opera guys..
10. If something we said can be interpret in two ways and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one
11. You can either ask us to do something Or tell us how you want it done. Not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.
12. Whenever possible , Please say whatever you have to say during commercials.
13. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.
14. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not A color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.
15. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," We will act like nothing's wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.
16. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, Expect an answer you don't want to hear
17. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as football, cars, bikes or games
18. You have enough clothes.
19. You have too many shoes.
20. Thank you for reading this. Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight; But did you know men really don't mind that? It's like camping.
Pass this to as many men as you can - to give them a laugh. Pass this to as many women as you can - to give them a bigger laugh.

Well hello lady! Been a long, long time! Glad to hear you survived the craziness of falling crack addict/dealers. Thrilled the feline has made a recovery. Happy to hear the health is hanging in there. And very happy to hear you continue to see/encounter the most insane things in life (e.g. pink fuzzy bicycles).
On my end, just been spending loads of time snowboarding, looking for a house, and otherwise enjoying life and the end of my 30s.

I got a message from him too!!! Loves him! He is one of my faves! Makes me smile :)
He's a sweetheart :)
He and I don't talk much now days but he's a cool dude lol. I miss the hell outta that goofball lol. :P
...So - after about FIVE days of bliss, ie quiet from the Neanderthal couple above me - they get back to fighting...at around 7 this morning.
I hate them. I know this sounds awful, but sometimes I wish that they'd also go headfirst through their third story window, like that drug dealer did last month.
(I think I just insulted Neanderthals...sorry, guys)
COMMENTS
You have some fucked up neighbors lady, poor you :(
Oh god, i am so sorry love. People suck and no you do not sound awful...when anybody makes your life uncomfortable where you live...yeah, you go bonkers. I hope that there is more peace for you there and that these asses stop fighting!
I just bought some P.I.L. songs for my iPod...I forgot how much I loved that band - lol.
* Religion
* This In Not A Love Song
* Happy?
* Seattle
Damn, Miss Kitty! How could a cat stink up a place so much?
COMMENTS
lol
They can! My one kid is too good to bury his #2. Just leaves it there. ugh!
Two of mine leave their shit uncovered too...Miss Kitty - the baby - and Crunch - the oldest. Good grief...!!!
In kittie's mind:
"But I giveded that to you! I madeded that just FOR you? What you mean cover it UP???"
Playing hookey today...actually, not feeling too great. (I guess the lil' purple pill decided not to work for 2 days in a row). In any case, regardless of how I feel tomorrow - short of needing to stay near the toilet - I'm off to work. Can't afford to miss it, ya' know?
Spent the last two days glued to the TV anyway, with football and the presidential inauguration (I spelled that wrong, didn't I)? Anyway...GO NINERS!
COMMENTS
I want to play hooky from class tonight... can't. :(
Hope your tummy feels better tomorrow.
I so could have played hooky today... But didn't. TV for two days, i'd be dying to go to work :p
Wait...what? Playlist is back? Cool!
Gee...I think I just spent over 3 hours rating hundreds of things in the database...and my level has not moved one iota...it figures.
I did a lil' shopping yesterday afternoon - bought another rug for the living room - a 3x5 to match the 2x3 I bought a week ago from West Elm (I love that store)! It'll be delivered next weekend.
I also got a black & white throw for the bed from Ikea for only $15, in addition to a frame for a coffee poster for the kitchen.
Yes - I love shopping for my home, and for books - more than for myself.
I did buy a few articles of clothing over 2 weeks ago (2 pairs of pants, 2 pairs of shoes, and a shirt). Maybe I'll find 1 - 2 shirts, and that'll be it. I really need to start making stuff for myself, as I can design! (And sew a bit).
I'll be back this evening to hang out, dispense Honor, etc.
COMMENTS
database rating.... why?
You have been a busy bee!
What? No corsets?
'Shopping from home' - I could buy my own special chair based on that statement! lol
I hate the couple that lives above me. They fight most days/nights - yelling, stomping about, and throwing shit...like right now. Of the few times I've called the cops, they've only showed up once. It's no use calling management, as their mailbox is always full...Grrrr!
And I've spent the better part of today on the phone with AT&T and Dell...didn't get anywhere with trying to get my printer working again, nevermind that Dell wanted to transfer me to their fee-based department when the tech I had couldn't help me. Screw that - I spent enough money with them on ink and a monitor recently. They can kiss my ass.
I don't know exactly what I did, but I got the printer to work via Windows and not Dell. Keeping my fingers crossed...
Tomorrow, I'll set up the monitor...that should be EASY. But with the luck I've been having these past few days with my computer and its issues...who the fuck knows?
Sigh.
...I am a cougar. I admit it. I'm not an extreme cougar though, as I'm attracted to guys in their 40s (I'm going to be 52 next month...Lord, how the time flies)!
Of course if a man is good-looking, I'm gonna' look, regardless of his age. Looking is all I'll do though in regards to the young ones, as I'm generally not interested in anything I could have given birth to.
(I'm flattered though, kid)...
COMMENTS
You go girl :)
Gotta love them younger hotties:)
Nice to meet a fellow cat- especially one so close to my own age...lol
And have you met my husband? The one who is 16 years younger than I am...?
Mrrrreow!
Got my new monitor today...and now my old piece of shit monitor decides to work perfectly.
Finally got around to rating a few profiles, since I can now actually see what's on the screen.
COMMENTS
It is just the way it works isn't it?
ROFLMAO......
Like lighting a cigarette when you're waiting for the waitress to bring your food, my momma always said...lol
Story of my life heh
For someone who rarely cooks, I must say that my meatloaf turned out pretty good! And I know that the peach cobbler will be yummy...I even have left-over caramel sauce if I want to sugar myself to death.
(Seriously - my eating habits are healthy overall...I don't want to trigger the stomach pains, ya' know).
COMMENTS
Meatloaf and peach cobbler....Yum! I would stroke your kitty to get some.....Wait, what? Eh, you know what I mean. ^_^
Mogy...you nasty.
You are making me very hungry!
*nothing left but a puddle of drool....*
Aaaaaah maaaaannnnn...LUCKY! Lol.
It sounds amazing. I want, I WANT lol.
*drooling like Homer again*
I'm too lazy today. I'll make a peach cobbler tomorrow...
COMMENTS
MMMMMM,YUM.Peach Cobbler.
I agree. Yum!
Great- that'll give me time to get to your house with the collard greens...lol
Omg.....
*drooling like Homer Simpson*
We all get a variety of rates, from 1 to 10; lately, a few folks seem to think I'm not so attractive...lol. And it's all good, as beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Do I ask for a re-rate? No - I state in my profile that I don't go back and ask for re-rates, because the rating system is not why I am here.
But some here really get pushed out of shape when their portfolios and/or profiles are not rated with a 10.
When will people - especially newbies - learn that another's rate of them does not have anything to do with their true value?
COMMENTS
You are a 10 with honours, across the board!!!
Yup what she said...lol
Them fuckers. You are friggin' god damn beautiful....another reason I wanted you to be a card in my tarot deck. You are both beauty and strength to me all in one...anyone who DOESN'T agree with me can sit and spin...when they get to the elbow the ride is over. ;)
Well, Whiskers is steadily improving, thank God!
I got more of the steroid and antibiotic, plus beef scented iron drops, as he is also anemic...lol. This cat is costing me some serious $$$. But I'm glad to have had the money to save him, thanks to my mom's generous Xmas gift. She won't like the fact that I spent almost $800 on a cat, but oh well...
Spent about 3 hours on the phone with AT&T today to update McAfee, and clean up stuff...after all of that, I still keep getting a script running error box popping up whenever I'm on the net...like now. Good grief. I'll call them again tomorrow...
Finally got my CT scan done yesterday...I'll soon find out if the gallstones are multiplying AND moving about. I sure hope not! The Nexium has finally kicked in as far as keeping the pain away for the most part.
And finally - no more straining my eyesight with this shitty ass monitor. A new one is on its way - yipee!
I visited my mom last Thursday, and may do so again this Thursday/Friday. Isn't it funny how moms are always trying to feed you, even when you aren't hungry? Lol...
Maybe I'll even run into this guy again on BART:
Me: Wow...um, that's a big pink thing...
Guy: *laughs* Yeah...
Me: Pretty furry too...
Guy: It is, isn't it?
Me: You like the attention, don't you?
Guy: *laughs* I do!
Me: Looks like something from the mind of Dr. Seuss.
Guy: I love Dr. Seuss! He must have been in my subconscious when I came up with this idea...
Me: Um...yeah. You could just be crazy too.
Guy: *laughs* I just might be!
Me: May I take a picture?
Guy: Sure - go ahead!
COMMENTS
Wow, I wonder does him know the pimp guy. I'm still waiting for that pic. LOL!
Hoe. Lee. SHIT.
That is the most pimped out thang I think I have ever seen since Starsky and Hutch went off the air...
I want one!!
Well damn ......
ROFL!!! Omg I can't breathe lol!!!!!
What the fuck?
I've been really busy...so tired.
Whiskers is steadily improving, but we still don't have info back regarding the lastest round of tests...I'm hoping that he has/had a very bad infection at the least, and not some form of cancer. I hope that when I get the results, I'll steady myself and know what to do if it's the worse case scenario.
This will be a busy week with errands, and hopefully I'll get shit done with minimal spending.
There's other stuff I'd like to put down here, but I'm too damn tired...and my comp is too damn slow - it's working on what lil' patience I have.
Hell yeah. I got money to take care of Whiskers, regular stuff, and more. Shit - I can even do a lil' clothes shopping, in moderation. And that includes much needed shoes - lol.
I'm drinkin' a sangria in celebration! Yeah!

♪ Go Isis, it's your New Year, you can do it. ♪
YAY!!!! *dances* Before I sent your package did my best to send it with many more blessings of good fortune! I hope what your mom did and this is not the end of it. *hugs* So happy for you!
Thank you and hugs for you both!
lol...Hell ya! ;)
A few days ago, I was in tears. I'm still crying, but now those tears are tears of joy.
Right when I - and the vet staff - thought that Whiskers was on his last days, he's now doing a complete turn-around! The fluid therapy and drugs are working! His lil' nose is no longer white - it's turning back pink; he's eating now, and is chatting again!
Everyone - me included - thought that the lil' guy would most likely die over the New Year...I was ready to put him to sleep just this past Saturday, as I didn't want him to suffer. But something in that cat's eyes told me not to give up on him yet, so I opted for the drugs (prednisolone and amoxycillin). While we still don't know what caused his illness - we'll need more tests this upcoming Friday), Whiskers is vastly improving! (He got another steroid and fluid therapy today, by the way).
I know that I shouldn't get my hopes up too high, but I am so happy! (So are the rest of the kitties).
Everyone at the veterinary clinic is calling Whiskers 'The Miracle Kitty'...!!!
COMMENTS
AWESOME!!!! You Go Whiskers! ^_^
Congratulations sugar! I'm so glad kitty is feeling in the pink again...lol
I miss having kitties in my life, but hubby is allergic- so I am relegated to playing with other people's.........
Yeah, I'm so not going there...lol
Good news! I am happy for you.
Wow, that is amazing! I hope he is soooo much better now. :)
