Hey Everyone,

I was having a slight "disagreement" with the small keep-in-touch group of members I've met in person from CC.

Because we're all on the go and constantly busy, we most stick to texting our thoughts just whenever (sometimes a little, sometimes not at all -- just what anyone feels like doing,) and every now and then, someone will leave a voice message.

I grew up in the Northern USA (yes, I am a bonafide Yankee!,) but I have always been fascinated by the Southern USA -- particularly the accents.

Now I'm told my rendition of a "Southern" accent is quite horrifying, therefore, it seems God has hooked me up with multiple Southern USA CC members to try to teach me a lesson (or at least, to keep me in my very northern-esque place!)

A few nights ago, I was complaining that not enough people were leaving voice messages, and that I was going into withdrawal!!

I told them, "Look, I Need More Southern Accent Exposure in my life to Help Keep Me Calm, because NOBODY Wants to See What Happens if I Lose my Calm!!!"

Unfortunately... So far, no one has really taken the bait.

Le sigh.

Well, at least you'll all know what went down when I eventually DO lose my calm -- and unleash it on the forum!

So, how would you fill in your own words to a sentence like this:

"I Need More _______ To Help Keep Me _______ Because Nobody Wants to See Me When I'm _________________"

This template is just a guideline. Maybe your answers will be something like:

* "I need more music in my life to help keep me relaxed, because nobody wants to see me when I'm not relaxed!"

* "I need more Cool Ranch Doritos in my life to help keep me full, because nobody wants to seem me when I'm hangry!"

* "I need more opportunities to pet my dog in my life, because nobody wants to see me when I'm pet-deprived!"

* "I need more alone time in my life, because nobody wants to see me when I'm maxed out on dealing with people!"

The possibilities are endless! :)

Tell us what YOU need more of in your life -- and what we're all in danger of if you don't get them!

(In the meantime, I'll keep trying to coax people into leaving me messages in Southern accents. Though it doesn't have to be just Southern -- I become rather addicted to a wide variety of voices and accents of all different kinds!) :LOL:

What about YOU?

I had to laugh...

"I Need More laughter To Help Keep Me balanced and grounded Because
Nobody Wants to See Me When I'm in an implacably foul humour."

I need more chocolate in my life. If I don't get some chocolate, somebody gonna get hurt.

Actually I talk a big chocolate game, but I don't really eat much. It's a fun act to put on though, like being grumpy about morning and work. And I really do thoroughly enjoy the chocolate I do eat.

I need more (Honestly…Christian music…it’s like my Christian cigarette) to help keep me (less stressed...caused I just got off the phone with my lawyer and I’m going to have to plead my case in front of a judge) cause nobody wants to see me when I (am moody?…I have bipolar disorder so my mood tends to fluctuate depending on circumstances).

Here you go.

If you hear anything you like, look up all the rest of that singer or group on youtube.

That should give you enough to get started.

It sounds like I’m at a county fair.

Now I want bar-b-qued corned, smothered in butter and lemon pepper.

I think the mainstream Christian music is what tends to soothe me. I think because it’s designed to “heal people” apparently. I’ve actually bawled my eyes out crying to some of the songs sometimes cause I experienced some real breakthroughs in processing past traumatic experiences.

Heh... You didn't listen to very many of them. There's everything from heavy metal to Jamaican to rap to bluegrass in there.

When you find one you like, ask youtube for more of that group.

Given what you just said you like, offhand I recommend Avalon, 4Him, Steven Curtis Chapman, FFH, Josh Wilson, Matthew West.

Maybe Casting Crowns. Hmm, maybe not.

this Casting Crowns song is beautiful. It reminds me of how I’m supposed to treat my girlfriend or just anyone really. Sometimes it’s hard for me to communicate with people on the streets here in Long Beach/Carson area. Tons of people seem like they are very afraid to speak in public and not gonna lie, their fear sometimes causes me fear.

i remember it not being that way when I was younger.

i wonder where those other unafraid to speak in public people are in this area.

Not even sure why I am going on about this. Just my observation of going out for the like 4th time outside this year.

Maybe someone will see this post and chime in or not.
