Id totally freak out if that happened. :shocked: :shocked:

My farm is really secluded and people always phone first. So all of us who live here are kind of stunned when any one pulls unannounced. It almost never happens.
Im kind of formal though. I would never stop in anywhere unannounced. :sweat:

I hate it if my bf doesnt phone to say goodnight. Really bums me out. :beaten: :doh:

Me neither.

Its amazing how many languages have the same expressions.

@ Daichi Kai- DO you have the expression "transparent as glass"?

In Norway they say that as "You arent the GlassMasters child" :hehe:

my own stupidity!
Watching Orange Days until 3am, knowing that I had a challenging Monday ahead of me! :sweat: :nut:

I basically procrastinated the whole day and have to go early to work to finish writing a briefing sheet that had to be handed in today. I wasted my day imagining possible endings for Orange Days. :rofl:

How borderline pathetic is this??? :metaldevil:

Having to double my work load last week and this week because I got my summons for Jury Duty.

The annoying thing is... I don't even call them to find out when I have to go in until Sunday the 23rd. And I might not even have to go in on Monday!!!

But since I don't know what these people have in mind for me... I have to get at least a full week ahead. I'm too old for this crap. I need a nap.

You'll have plenty of time to do that when you're in the jury pool waiting for your number to be called up like a cow waiting for slaughter... :sweat:

Oh, I know. I've gotten called in every year for the last 12 years. (So far, I've never been picked to be on a jury.)

But this year it's different! This year instead of going out to small town Martinez... I get to go to downtown Oakland. During rush hour.

I have to steal some time later this week to drive into Oakland and find out where the heck the Courhouse is.

Not happy not happy not happy.

Neither would I, which is why it irks me when people drop by unannounced on me. :shakehead:

Geez... good luck with that. I hope you don't get a long court case if you get picked :fingerscrossed:

Enna... maybe the expression should be "You cook more flies with cooking oil" :P

My BF being in excruciating pain from his back being out. I think he slipped a disc. D%*M!! :shamefulcry:
I almost had to carry him in to lay down. He was ready to pass out from the pain. Thank god the chiropractor can see him tomorrow. :sweat: :puppydog: I feel so badly for him.

Did you give him any Advil/Motrin/Ibuprofen?

It works pretty well as an anti-inflammatory... I took those for a while when my disc (L4) was in bad shape and they helped quite a bit...

Yes, actually...
But she wants a feedback right???
After all is there no black list thingy in the E-Bay???


I just don't want the hassle of her giving me bad feedback to get me back if I give her it, and then having to get ebay to remove it and/or her. :sweat:

I'm gonna do as Enna suggests - not sink to that level! :victory:

Oh Beem! It's odd to see someone familiar with the spinal levels! (That is, I mean someone who's not a medical person).
So you would know what it means if I say I am paralyzed from T2?

Ibuprofen is a great anti-inflammatory - but it can cause stomach problems, so should never be taken without food (although if you're in agony, eating can be impossible).

@ Eve and AD - hope these problems are resolved soon. Terrible pain can be so debilitating. :bleh:

I think T2 is the thoracic part of the spine, ne?

I did some reading on the spine/discs/etc. last year when I developed sciatica... Had an MRI and it was found that I have a bulging disc at L4... The cortisone injections only relieved the pain temporarily: the real solution was physical therapy and continued exercise to strenghten my lower back, abs, etc... Core muscles.

Been virtually pain-free for the last six months. :thumbsup:

Yeah, it seems to work quite well... And it hasn't bothered my tummy so far. :)

If you translated it into English, yes it has...
It looks like this, He/She is as transparent as a glass ==> Predictable...

I have been put in the beginners class for Japanese! :shamefulcry: :shamefulcry:

I will be bored to death since I have lived over six month in Japan, had classes over there and understand quite a bit (also thanks to tons of dramas :dancing: )

The problem is that I my knowledge doesnLt correspond to the requirements of the Belgian public educational programme. I have some gaps and am too advanced in other areas. So itLs back to basics again. :grumble:

Daijoubu Esther!! This will give you a chance to brush up on your basics, plus, once the other students she how much you know, you'll become the class "Senpai" and they'll think you're God!!! [/list:u]

I donLt mind being both God and Anego as long as there is no Goldfish Jin in my class and I have to fall for him :bleh:
