WizardOfOz30 1,886 Report post Posted January 1, 2011 I had seen that was on all day and thought about you Loo. Realizing that you weren't nearly as special as you thought/hoped you were to someone that meant a lot to you really sucks and hurts. Now that I've said that, I'm going to do my best not to dwell on it anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't normally get down about things too often, at least I don't allow myself to dwell on something for too long. How the heck does hitting your funny bone make your foot fall asleep?

sleepwalker 512 Report post Posted January 4, 2011 I swallowed a roach of death star about 15 minutes ago, when I was walking down the street and looked over to see a cop crossing the street towards me. I haven't eaten all day, and my stomach is feeling f***ed up now. And my burps smell like dank. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure he's shopped there before. I bet the Swedes like being there seeing all that Swedish and getting some of the good food. Can't remember which one, but they said they do like the food from the grocery section. My hamster is named Johan Andreas Valtteri Jonathan.

Selliria 76 Report post Posted January 6, 2011 My boyfriend just took me out to a fancy restaurant for an amazing meal as my Christmas gift and now I can't help but just feel guilty. I'm so appreciative for everything I have - the fact that I can go to said restaurant and have such a filling meal. But then I always stop and think about all the people who haven't eaten anything today and I immediately feel terrible. I'm beyond thankful for what I have. Maybe tomorrow I'll go over to the local St. Vincent de Paul and donate some old stuff I have laying around. 1 WizardOfOz30 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

puckloo39 5,686 Report post Posted January 6, 2011 No need to feel bad or guilty when your loved one does something nice for you. Especially when your instinct is to pay it forward and do something good for others. I wonder why some people have allergies and others don't, and why some things make you sneeze and itch, but others don't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
