I do not have any children either.

I don't have children.....bah.

Hello everyone, thought I would see how ya'll are. ^^

Hi there... I'm tired and hungry and want a chat!

Sure its nice to have a chat, I'm just tired. I ate some long johns today. Bleh I hate it but I had to eat fish today. >3> thank god its good friday.
How are you today?

I'd recommend a snack to go with a chat, otherwise someone might loose fingers :D

Hi fey, how are you?

Had to? You fast for the lenten period?

Not too good. I was woken up by my loud, annoying, obnoxious sister.. I'm a bit hungry and my tummy is beginning to hurt as well has having a headache. And I have the inexplicable urge to cry.... a lot

Yuppers I had to.
And I'm sorry to hear that. I kinda miss the annoying sister. It'd be less boring here. lol.

I'm...oddly wired for having no sleep and no reason otherwise. but that's oooookay.

::gives duchess a large sparkly cookie:: no crying, there's noooooo crying unless you want me to join in O.O cause, I do that.

Before my nap I stayed up of 24 hours.......

And trust me.. I won't miss her. Her ugliness runs deep and i dislike her as a PERSON.

~sigh~ Now I want some long john.. I want anything.... good. TT_TT but we have no car anymore....

Cookie would make me fat...ter..... >.>

Eh, try having a kid keep you up most of the night. It was so hot over here he couldn't sleep. I gave him like 3 sippy cups of milk. v.v ;
I managed to get some sleep around five in the morning till bout close to noon. then it was a hairbrained day getting the truck inspected, something faxed, shopping, and then lastly getting drinks because it was sooooo hot.

::internet cookies::
bummers you and your sister don't get along, I ONLY talk to my brother any more out of all my family.

lol, my mom used to give both me and my brother milk laced with rum to get us to sleep >.>...

Yeah I heard about that, but I wanted to do the hot milk approach, but last night I had to keep it cold.
Duchess: I hope your long johns is better, in our area it kinda sucks. I barely stomached it today.
My sister can be a b word, but I love her nonetheless. Although my moms actions when it comes to her can baffle you from time to time.

It's insanely hot here too! Poor you Eclipse~ >: Is the child yours?
I'm not planning to have kids anytime soon for that same reason and more. I'm just not ready yet.

I want milk laced with rum... I figure i may just do that to my kids xDD Cept, it would be brandy. In honour of my mother's saying " Give them two shot of brandy and let them sleep"

Our long johns is Not >___> I live in the Caribbean... practically anything imported is not >__>

now I'm glad I never had a sister...I always thought trading my brother in for one might've been an upgrade, but I guess I was wrong....

my mom liked her brandy too much to share LOL but we got bourbon in our tea if we had a sore throat.

Yes, he's mine and my hubby's. He's such a blessing out of the crude I went through during the pregnancy (no complications, just emotional crap.) Our lives feel so good, despite the fact we arent' very rich, and the school that my hubby's working in is taking pay cuts out of the peoples checks.

ew, pay cuts suuuuuuck, and moreso when you've got a family.

Yeah, but lately my mother in law (lunch lady) and hubby (Technical assistance) have been getting checks at the same rate, and my hubby has been working overtime, so it doesn't add up. We think they may be manipulating hours, or shifting overtime for regular working hours to save themselves money.

that's only majorly illegal. does he have a time card or something? cause he needs to make copies if so.

Oh we got all the check stubs. I think he's going to bring it to light, and maybe they'll change a bit. We wont' beable to hire a lawyer, but, if it gets too bad, jeremy can always find a better job. I think there was a graphic designer company here he could try for. Thats if our own business doesn't start off too well.

no, time cards record how much you've ACTUALLY worked vs paychecks that just show what they paid you for. If the two don't match up then you don't need a lawyer, you just threaten to take it to the DOE.

I'll let my husband know about that. I think he may have access to them.

good, cause the department of education, state side, will definately want to know if they're pulling that stuff.

Its just amazing what a school will do though. didja hear about austin? They laid off all the tech aids, and the three main tech bosses, then they tried laying off teachers, but the students wouldn't hear of it, and now they are trying to lay off staff members. I really hate the state of our economy right now.

sorry for the quick signout, my laptop was being dumb.

Oh geez. That's sounds like some seriously nasty foul play. I'm really to sorry the hear that's what happening over there these days. I knew it was bad, but that's really terrible

and unfortunately they don't seem to realize that without TEACHERs the economy is going to be worse. after all, if there's no one to teach how do you learn? if you can't learn you can't get a job, you can't get a job you'll have a lovely cycle going on.

Eh its a cruel cruel world, but sometimes you just got to make it better in your own way. For me I rely on god in a religious sense. We've always managed to make it every time. :3

Fey: I totally understand. Right now my grandfather had to go back to work because his social security went up, and my mimi went back to work as a tutor (she's educated to be an english teacher.) But with all these alyoffs, my grandfather might get laid off from being a school bus driver. Also the economy is so bad so many educated people are losing their job, including my father. Ugh.

it seems like every time they claim the economy is getting better more people loose their jobs. it's sorta scary.

Yeah, but also because of this, alot of fresh out of high school students, are not going to college because tuition went up, and many people with a degree have been dubbed "over qualified." Which is a load of baloney.

but anyway, On a positive note, I'm sooooo looking forward to easter, my almost 2 year old is going on his first egg hunt. :D I'm going to take pictures and everything. Its going to be a blast.

Well they are obviously overqualified because they don't want to pay the more money that qualified people deserve.. -sigh-

Depressing.... seriously depressing.... Everything is depressing me these days

Oh what has been going on duchess. Why so glum?

Buncha crap that i don't want to talk about...

right, no more downers! uhm, sparkles and kittens and er...something else 'adorable'.

Well I'm sorry your going through it, Much hugs and hope things get better. -sends good vibes in hopes it'll help- I know how you feel right now personally. I know I've vented in the life issues thread, but it actually runs much deeper than that. Right now I feel good, because my son is near.

arg, my brain is filled with belts and masks...I blame trisphee...I'd much rather it were filled with shoes and hats ;)

Right now My mind is fixated on colors I like XD I'm trying hard for the poof crimson skirt. It'll be a nice addition for my avatar. Then I can start questing for a new outfit. :D I love it here. Not to mention working for the other currency to trade for runes helps too since I can't really spend money.

I'm so bad at saving up my money...I spend it faaaaaaast, but word is we might want to save up for new stuff...and I'll try if it kills me. It's also why I'm working on stuff, if I make enough entries in theory I have to win SOMETHING LOL
