remember AM Fast Chat parts I, II, and III? we have so few threads where we actually talk anymore.

so, what's new with you?
how y'all doin?

[Frieda]

doin good.. have to work till midnight tonight.

whatcha wearin?

[AllegroNg]

HP2 comes out on DVD today, and I'm teaching my friend to drive today:eek:

Edit: I'm not wearing any pants.

[dinzdale]

*thump*:eek:


sound of my jaw hitting the desk

[Deviate]

Hewlett Packard 2?

i am wearing pants, for once. damn offices.

i'm not so much in a good mood.

-st.

[ambo]

been wondering about that, Dev
what's aching you, and what can we do to help ?

[dinzdale]

Well Deev, you seem in a bad mood again, and yet you get to "work" but still play on here for chunks of the day.
In the words of Drop Dead Fred...... "Get Happy"... *SMACK*

Can we help, or are you wallowing?

[Deviate]

here's the thing:
if i was in a good mood i wouldn't be here. i tend to come here to get out of whatever shit is going on.

and i'm not wallowing, thank you, i just happen to be very logical about how i'm feeling. if someone asks how i am (which in this case, yes, i know, it was offered, not asked) i am pretty blunt with an answer.

if i were wallowing i'd be boo-hooing up and down the threads. i'm not throwing a temper-tantrum, i'm not bawling it out, i'm not crying on the shoulder of any zemonkey. i just happened to say i'm not so much in a good mood.

and i apologize, but i haven't been for awhile, and although i am attempting to just "get happy" sometimes it's not easy as all candy and sunshine.

[AllegroNg]

Harry Potter, for god's sake.;)

Ugh, and I got a bill from the collection agency for a bill I've never seen before!!!! WTF!? I'm a goddess of credit! Am I the only one who has this happen? GD!!

Anyway, anilingus is now my favourite word!:D

[Deviate]

ah, i've not seen the second Harry Potter yet. i'd like to. saw the first with my cousin, but she told me what was going to happen like seconds before it did. it was very aggrevating.

wouldn't mind to watch Sabrina the Teenage Witch goes to Malabu like that, but not a movie i'm actually keen on seeing.

Anilingus is a real tongue twister.

Um, excuse me, but I think I just heard Mr. Spock clear his throat. I spent a lot of money in therapy, and one repeating theme was that one cannot be logical about one's feelings...

I totally hear you about "getting happy". Crapola. The only thing that ever works for me is trying to figure out what is hurting me, and see if there is something I can do to change it. I'm a control freak, so that works for me. Failing that, I just vent and vent and vent, until it goes away.

I know you didn't ask, but your pain flows out of this board and onto my keyboard. I MUST try to help. Forgive me.

[Deviate]

ambo, peg, thanks.

and i have to give a shout out to Lala and Beale as well. you guys have helped considerably.

Peg - that pic is Hysterical and is now my new desktop background.

Ambo - re: logical about once's feelings
i've always analyzed my situation down to the most subtle nuance. i can't help it. when i'm in a pisser i tend to analyze it to the point where i can talk about it very logically. it's the only thing, sometimes, that holds me together.

yes, i know logically i could say "f*ck it" and it'd all be over. but that's not the case. and when you're in a shitty mood and get overlooked, well, that usually only adds fuel to the fire.

i'm not really the type of person that will fully divulge their feelings. i'll say i'm in a bad mood or feeling shitty and explain my situation, but not really get into the extent of the emotions. i think that's MY control issue.

ANYWAY -

this was not supposed to be a me ranting session. thanks for the concern. just trying to muddle through a nice bog o' crap.

oh, and my coffee is insanely weak. and it's the last fish fry tonight. and i'm going to Iowa to see my dying cousin tomorrow. and Chuckles the Gum-Pooping Chicken is almost out of M & M's. and so on and a so forth.

-st.

[Deviate]

oh, and thanks for the martini, too, Peg. haven't had a Peg-poured martini in quite some time. even if virtual, hell, it packs one hell of a punch right in the cockels.

-st.

[bealeblues]

i'm always around for ya deev... even if for nothing more than to laugh at the southern accent of a drunk shittey pool player

[Red Princess]

hey dev, hope it gets better. i know what you mean (i think) about trying to sort out feelings in a logical way. i like to think(feel) it through from start to finish, to use the pop psych nomenclature, to 'own' those feelings, i don't ask that those feelings be logical, but one can be logical in processing them, then i like to go on a massive cleaning binge to release the energy

[lapietra]

:)
Glad I could help -
You've helped me too... :D

[red]

I'm happy it's finally Friday.
My screaming headache is just a small shout. When I woke up this morning I really didn't want to go in to work. When I got here all hell broke loose and I was the only person who could handle it. I guess it was a good thing I came in, 'sides it looks like the rest of the day may be a play day!!!

[red]

for the sleep deprived
http://homepage.mac.com/cosmic.chick/easter_bunnies.JPG

[red]

I'm not sure how to take that based on your previous comments.
;)

[red]

I can remember being that tired working 'round the clock.
I don't think I could or would do that now. I guess the price would have to be right.

[masterofNone]

peg an noel, don't take this the wrong way, but go to bed.

[red]

Mmmmmmm…sleeeeep.
Yummy delicious sleeep.

[masterofNone]

sure, it's all fun and games until someone gets hurt....

[red]

it looks like you are channeling Tigger

[masterofNone]

alright. I know that lack of sleep is the best drug sometimes, so, wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[red]

I love Tigger.
He gets to do the things most of us would never do.

[lapietra]

Actually - I think Peg is channelling Rune - or possibley channelling Rune channelling Tigger...

[Deviate]

i've done several days without sleep before. chronic insomnia coupled with anxiety and panic attacks will do that to ya. haven't done more than forty-some hours as of recent, though.

-st.

[Red Princess]

i feel like i have insomnia if i can't nap on a saturday, i am sorry you guys have a hard time sleeping

[ambo]

geez !
i'm getting tired just reading the number of hours you guys have been awake...

[Red Princess]

can someone answer the phone for an hour while i take a nap?

[Red Princess]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[lapietra]

I lost track...
Is there any driving reason for the sleep deprivation or are you just not sleeping?

[lapietra]

but it's good to lap!!! :D
Just ask zen...
BTW - *smoogies*. Thanks for understanding. You're a good friend. :)

[RuneT]

I have just been changing my brake discs and the brake pads. I am dusty and I need a shower. Allthough I quite enjoy being being dirty now, not smelly dirty, just dirty. hmmm.

[AllegroNg]

Hrm.. they have medication for stuff like that..

[rmr]

Peg what about getting drunk?? That always works for me. It makes me fall asleep when I can't and then when i'm hungover I can always sleep.

[zefrank]

i now a lot on this subject Peg - albeit my own take on it. I've been an insomniac most of my life...

no specific recommendations - each to his/her own i think...

My break came when i gave up...stopped caring that I couldn't sleep and realized that I can function on barely any (not pleasant but its okay)

also started getting up and doing stuff when I couldn't sleep instead of lying in a pit of boredom.

[zefrank]

PS booze is a bad tranquilizer..max you get is about 3.5 hours - then you are up with a nervous pit in your stomach...

[lapietra]

The best cure for me is some kind of vigorous exercise... tires me out & gets me relaxed... that & a hot bubble bath. :D

[ambo]

Moel and Peg - I've never had any trouble sleeping, so have no advice for you - just very sleepy vibes being sent your way - you are getting very sleepy - sleepy - sleepy...

[trisherina]

I'm gonna stay up and watch Mike Weir a bit more.

[Red Princess]

Peg, i completely agree with the previous statement about booze being a bad tranquilizer. the less i drink the better i sleep. when i drink i tend to wake up a lot in the night instead of sleeping through it.
and bubble baths are the best relaxers, besides pony tail guys which are the penultimate, but it you don't happen to have one of those... hey, i have a couple extra ones, i could loan you #2 or #3 if you want, what do you like better brunettes or curly brownettes? you can't have #1 because he is busy tonight.

[ambo]

So glad to have you back rested and renewed, Peg.

[Red Princess]

see? sometimes i just know things...... glad to hear you slept

[Deviate]

weeeeeeeekeeeeeeeeeeend..............

[rmr]

I miss you all!!!

[imdrsmooth]

POST!

[laughingbuddha]

sing a song of six pence

[chuckie egg]

I love you all! :)

[Deviate]

last night was an INCREDIBLE night.

off work early
smelled of rain
great workout
then
out to dinner
ribs
fries
onion rings
corn
beer

i love Spring.

-st.

[chuckie egg]

I'm in favour of beer... the most pleasant substance invented, in my opinion. mmmm ribs arent bad either!

[ambo]

workout, workout ?
what's that ?

[Deviate]

yeah. i spent my evening with dumbbells.

kinda like every evening....

-st.

[bealeblues]

mmmm.... beer.....

don't forget baseball... LSU thrashed Tulane last night 8-0, on a combined 2 hitter.... gotta love spring....

meanwhile the dodgers and orioles still suck ass

[red]

Right now I'm not thrilled with spring.
My Rockets were mathmatically eliminated from the playoffs.
stupid phoenix

[Deviate]

i'd be happy with spring if we could get one of those damn THUNDERSTORMS they keep promising.

damn meteorologists....

-st.

[red]

I love thunderstorms!

[Deviate]

again, no thunnderstorm, just cold and sunny....

-st.

[ambo]

I envy you Moel.
Very few thunderstorms in California.
I miss them.

[noxxville]

Move to Monterey Ambo, not many......but when it lights up....oh man. The lighning goes horizontal....it is amazing.

[ambo]

Actually, now that you mention it Nox, there were quite a few in San Diego. I guess it's just northern California that's missing them. But the best thunderstorms are still on the east coast. Man, what a blast !

[noxxville]

I think the best lighning shows are in the desert...by far. Lack of light and background noise makes them infinantly impressive

btw, where in Northern CA, I used to live there dontcha know?

[ambo]

Right now, Petaluma.
But I've lived all over up here, SF, Fairfax, San Anselmo, Pleasant Hill.

[noxxville]

Hayward, Fremont, Union City, Oakland, Pleasanton, Livermore, Castro Valley, Tracy, San Leandro, Sacramento, Placerville

Then there was Monterey, Seaside, Barstow

And now of course: Chicago

[ambo]

Why do you move around so much Nox ?

[rmr]

i thought we weren't going to talk about that ;)

[Deviate]

WOW!

i approached my ex-best friend's ex-girlfriend last night and we ACTUALLY communicated. i think we were used as weapons against each other in some weird drama triangle. pfft.

man, people can be so weird.

meanwhile some of them are just totally cool and never have the opportunity to connect...

life. hmm.

-st.

[red]

I love it when unexpected stuff happens

[Deviate]

i love it when i realize i was wrong about someone. i love finding human beyond hate.

-st.

[red]

aint growth great

[Deviate]

talk to me, people.

-st.

[ambo]

Hi Dev
How's it going ?
Going to NYC in June, huh ?

[Deviate]

well, not so sure about that now...

oh, and at the risk of being branded a whiner, it's not going so great, but thanks for asking.

how are things with you?

-st.

[ambo]

not so great here either
just in a blah mood
definitely don't feel like working :(

[Deviate]

yeah. me either. starting to get angry at my office mates for expecting me to work. starting to get mad in general and trying to shove it all in my shoes and not liking it. trying to chat instead....

sorry for the blah mood. been there before, definitely not fun.

-st.

[ambo]

luckily, my office mates expect very little from me
trying to work anyway

love your status :)

[bealeblues]

sure sign of the apocalypse:

i have been very very productive for 2 days straight...

so deev, tell your co-workers that i have done enough work for the both of us and that they can go fvck themselves....

[Deviate]

thanks man, printing that out in postcard format and leaving one in each of their mailboxes.

-st.

[bealeblues]

i do what i can to spread the love man

dammit, that's the second time i've rhymed today....

shite! there was an internal rhyme in that line above

shite! there was one in that one too.... fvck it, i'm going outside to play in traffic

[Deviate]

i'm just going to sit here and stew. probably going to drink profusly tonight. im me, pm me, call me, whatever. it's a party at my house and everyone's invited.

-st.

[Deviate]

i greatly resent being subjected to the ambient ramblings of Dr. Laura while working.

-st.

[Red Princess]

Dr. Laura, P.U.

[Deviate]

no kidding. i protested her a few months back, in October i think. that was the most hostility i've ever received at a protest. moreso than protesting churches, political fanatics, the Arch Diocese, and proposed consititutional intiviatives.

it seems her followers are mindless hate-spewing people with a severe moralithy superiority complex...

and i get to listen to her every day...

-st.

[rmr]

Forget Kevin Costner....

Dr. Laura Must Die

http://www.infoshop.org/img4/darts_thumb.gif





I HATE that beyatch

[Deviate]

omg that is the most frightening picture i've ever seen.

-st.

[dinzdale]

You should see her belly button .......


(sorry Deev - last BB joke today, promise)

[Deviate]

*vomiting*

*retching*

*hurling*

*puking*

-st.

[Red Princess]

sorry to hear it Dev, i used to work with a guy who listened to her, it was awful

[Deviate]

i think it's a picture of her soul....

pasted over a dartboard.

-st.

[ambo]

wow - really sorry i missed this thread today - gave me a good laugh....

[ambo]

nuttin'

[Deviate]

just bein pissed, how bout you Moel?

-st.

[ambo]

where's the doozer ?

[Deviate]

sickness? or just badness?

-st.

[Deviate]

well viral badness is better than just sheer badness in my eyes. at least viruses can be killed without anyone sending you to to a cold room with some large steely-eyed guy named Vinnie.

-st.

[Deviate]

yeah, but they're not sendin me back there, man, no way. i'll die first. i'll let them shoot me up like a whiffle ball and drag my bloody, mangled, yet less volumous body back to that cell.

-st.

[ambo]

he'll get over it

[Deviate]

tell me about it. not a man i'm thrilled about upsetting, but hey, we all have to look out for our own asses (and i'm not talking about donkeys).

so, what's got you in the uckin-funks?

-st.

[Deviate]

i mean, what's the sickness?

-st.

[ambo]

maybe there's a sticker somewhere you can't see it

[Deviate]

ah, been there. fun stuff.

hold it together, i got an old shoelace if ya need it to lace that thing back up again.

i hate it when my mind starts seeping through the holes...

-st.

[malina]

nice ava moel!

[Deviate]

rock on, Moel. hopefully i'll be fine without it for awhile...

dig it.
-st.
