Maybe God doesn't want to put a man in my life because it will be more than I can handle right now. My time has been spent conserving my own energy or getting it back for the next day. I do what I need. I spend my time 'selfishly'. So much energy in relationships, I just don't know if I have the desire to put all that energy out what I need for myself. I dunno. My life hasn't ended up the way I hoped for, sorry for the pity party. I'll stop now.

Well, I must leave you all again. Actually it's not that I'm leaving you it's that I'm leaving my computer to go take a long weekend in the mountains away from most of it all. But since my computer is my gateway to the online world, I won't be able to come see you guys either for a few days. So I'll be back Tuesday night and hopefully see you all then or soon after. Now when people are wondering where I disappeared to, you will know.

I keep my phone in a bowl of fruit. It wasn't really something I made a concious decision to do, it just sort of always ends up there, with the grapefruit. There might be an onion in there, I'm not sure. And possibly an apple. But definitely a phone.

Unwashed fruit can be chock full of germs on the outside, so you may want to find another place for your phone. :rolleyes: and maybe disinfect it with alcohol.

Rule #7: If it works, go with it. At least you always know where your phone is, which is more than some can say. And don't worry about fruit germs - a phone has many more germs than fruit could ever hold. They all came from you though, so no need to worry. You're already immune.

Don't you think the fruits could be affected the electromagnetic radiations from the phone? What if they come to life and become Angry Fruits? Poor MissCris could be held hostage now by her basket of fruits.

Could be worse. The smartphone might become TOO smart... and develop a taste for blood...

Fortunately for us the only way they would be able to move is to turn on their vibrate function on a sloped table.

But how can you turn on the vibrate function without touching it? I don't think it would be safe to touch the phone when it's hungry.

If they became smart enough to chase you, they could turn on their own vibration. But they'd never be able to go anywhere except downhill, so just get to the high ground (if-when the phone apocalypse begins) and you should be safe.

Roh_Chris are we chasing each other around in different threads or what?

Last night, my neighbor (the one who is constantly burning plastic outside and playing country music at top volume so the whole town has to listen to it) knocked on my door super late, to ask if he could borrow some milk and a couple of beers if I happened to have any. He went into a long, slurred shpeal about how his son (or brother maybe?) had found some kittens under their house and how his wife (or sister maybe?!) ran over one of the kittens earlier that day and now they needed something for them to drink, which could have been in reference to the kittens, but more likely he meant himself and his family. Anyway, I put some milk in a washed out cottage cheese container, some cat food in a ziplock bag, and handed over three beers that had been sitting in the back of the fridge for about two years.

He thanked me and then chastised me for answering the door that late at night, told me his son would be happy to shovel snow for me this winter, tipped his grimy hat to me, and promptly fell down the steps. He was mumbling about porch lights as he got up and walked away.

Later, I went outside to try to call one or three cats in for the night. While I was standing there, I heard all this crashing around at the back of the yard- something very hard was hitting something very metal, over and over again.

I had a hard time making up my mind whether I was more freaked out or more curious, but in the end, I grabbed a flashlight and walked slowly toward the noise.

It is amazing how much racket a tiny little goat can make with construction materials.

I tried to shoo the goat back to the crazy goat lady's yard, but it just stared at me, so I gave up and came inside and left the cats out to defend our home from goat vandals. Or would it be vandalizing goats? Goat vandalism? But the goat wasn't being vandalizing, it was doing the vandalism...?

It's coffee time. You know, again. Or still. All day.

...so just now, when I was starting a cup of coffee...

We have a Keurig, which is both kind of nice and kind of not (it's expensive). I put the K-cup in, and was about to close it when I had a sudden burning curiosity about the part that pokes the hole in the top of the K-cup. So I automatically stuck my hand in there and got jabbed and OW it flippin' hurt....

And as I was shaking my hand (because for some reason that helps reduce pain? I don't know, why DO people tend to shake their hand when they hurt it? Weird), I happened to notice, for the first time ever, red writing that says "CAUTION SHARP NEEDLES DO NOT PUT FINGERS IN K-CUP CHAMBER".

*sigh*

I might have to get some coffee or take a nap when I head over to my grandparents' house tonight. At 3 in the morning every thing was on my mind. My mom, my cat....everything. I had to try really really hard to get my brain to shut up long enough for me to sleep.

I don't have any brilliant advice or suggestions, but I'll keep praying for you, and you can come over for coffee and goat-tipping, if you want :)

MissChris: So is there blood in the coffee now?

You oughta know there's something sharp up in there - haven't you ever noticed how the lid of the little coffee grounds container looks when you take it out?

No blood, no.

Well yeah, I noticed the top of the cup had a hole in it...which is what made me curious to begin with...I guess I wanted to see how sharp "sharp" is.

Seriously, I don't know why I'm like this.

Holy moly- house in US was found to have about 5000 brown recluse spiders infested in it. They are gassing it, but I would say burn it down.
