I remember when we were kids, we used to

Remember the New Kids On The Block when they were huge?? When they came to sm
Hawaii where I used to live, I won a radio contest from a drawing. The New Kids actually came to the radio station and drew one winner for the grand prize. There were thousands of entries. Donnie, one of the band members, drew a name after the drum roll, live on the air, and he called my name! I almost fainted! haha I always said I was their biggest fan. So, I got the works...Limo ride, dinner with the band, their family members, radio and t.v. cameras (I was actually interviewed for a Japanese t.v. station through an interpreter). I felt like a star myself....haha....Anyways, I sat next to Joe McIntyre (I heard he was on Dancing With The Stars recently) and I flirted with him the whole time. He was my favorite anyway (back in the day, if you were a fan, you always had a favorite and I was in love with him). I remember he had a wicked Boston accent and I loved it! I am part Hawaiian and he asked me a million questions and I asked him questions too. There was definitely an attraction! I was 16 going on 17, I think. We were the exact same age. He was such a gentleman. I took about a 100 pictures...
After we ate I was escorted to the concert where I had front-row seats, backstage passes, etc.
It was a huge moment in my life for me at that time. I didn't want the night to end. I wanted to be invited up to Joe's room. I swear, I think he really wanted to hang out and get to know me after the show, but he had boydguards and family around and was so busy...at least that is what I wanted to believe...Hey, let a young gal pretend that she almost dated a superstar!!
Anyone else having probs with Yahoo IM lately? It's going wacky

try your library
Just a note, that if you have a public library card, and if your library lets you take out videos, you could check there. At our library in my town they have quite the assortment of exercise DVDs and videos. It's nice especially if you want to try it but end up not liking it. Then you can try another one and it breaks up the boredom a bit from doing the same videos over and over.
Do you have a local library?
Cheaper to check them out and return after writing great recipes. Just a thought.... 
Danger in the Library
Did anybody else catch the story on Inside Edition about crimes happening in the library.
That is so scary. It is not a place I would have expected such things.
Thanks - will have to see if I can find it at the library. nm

Local library? (sm)
I actually used to be a book junkie, but since the economic times have gotten so...interesting, and they charge an arm and a leg just for a paperback these days, I have started checking stuff out from the library. I almost won't buy a book these days. Just is not worth it to pay those prices.
Anyhow, off my soapbox. If you have a library nearby they should have most of the books. Charlaine Harris is the author, and she has several other series, as well.

go to Wednesday's practice day if you can
I went to a tourny in Atlanta and aside from the Saturday and Sunday play, my favorite was Wednesday when they got to practice.
By Saturday I figured out that instead of following one set of players from hole to hole, it was better to pick a hole I liked and sat there all day. That way, I got to see every player. I think it was the 16th hole, almost 400 yards, big dog leg to the right, so I sat in the crook where I could see the tee and the first strokes landed the balls right in front of me. I wasn't that far from the restrooms and a snack shop, either :)
Lots of fun. Hope you enjoy yourself! I hope to be a volunteer at a tourney next year just to be closer to the activities and personalities.
Wednesday works
Hi trose,
Wednesday will work...ya get the info from the beginning of the week and what their plans for the wknd are.
A relatively new tradition.....On Wednesdays, my mother (who is 70 years young) and my sister J (46) and her daughter Pricia - short for princess Patricia (3) all have a sit down dinner at J's house....sometimes real fancy or sometimes just Sabrett hot dogs with all the trimmings....and tea parties.....1004 miles away from where I am.
I remember the teen years with the boys....art shows and portfolios, the football, track and baseball practices and games, them trying to get dressed in the back seat of the car while trying to shove something down their throats and the part time jobs....I kinda miss it.

I have already seen for Wednesday night
and I will not go into who hung on and so but sorta shocking on this end. I think it is a little different this year than last or maybe I have just forgotten how they started picking the top 12. Next Tuesday another group comes in and then from there another 12 picked, I guess. Can go into discussion tomorrow when all have hopefully watched.
I read this book also. Wonderful book.

Wednesday, May 30 for Miami-Florida

Two daughters go back next Wednesday
Two days after Labor Day. One starting 8th grade at a the Junior High and one starting preschool. I'm in NY.
Please watch Oprah on Wednesday
She is doing a show about divorce and how it affects children. I think she'll have experts/psychologists on to talk about ways of explaining divorce to children to make it as least traumatic as possible. Oprah always seems to get the best experts on her show, and usually they have written books that you could read too. I think how you talk to your kids about the divorce has a huge impact, and some parents get so wrapped up in their own pain that they fail to really help the kids with their heartbreak, so I think it's great you are thinking about your son first thing. So many times the kids think it is their fault for some reason.
My personal opinion is that sometimes it is better to get divorced if you are miserable, because just as we want our kids to be happy, they want us to be happy too. But, I think you have to try with everything you have inside of you first to make the marriage work, so then you can leave knowing you did everything you could to try to save the relationship (unless it is abusive in any way). I would highly recommend watching Oprah on Wednesday though. It looks like it's going to be a very moving, informative hour.
Get some exercise videos/CDs from your library or video store and do at home. Need to do SOME

The cat happened Monday. Toilet trauma was Wednesday.
I think I'm fine...just accident prone this week.
My three girls start back next Wednesday, 1st grade, 4th, and 7th. nm

The sad thing is she didn't have to give them up until noon on Wednesday....
and she gave them to him today...unless she is checking into rehab again you would think she would want to spend as much time with them as possible...
don't remember Minnie, but I remember Kiki! Though I would rather not.
nm
Definitely remember Buffy's Bark. Also had a Bassett Hound and remember his bark(EOM)

Haha...exactly. :O) NM

haha
I laughed so hard when i seen you say "googly eyes" lol.
I always find it hard to watch people that think they're so darn sexy and it's like you have got to be kidding me!
I think the girl that was a backup singer is really good but without being mean it's hard to watch her too because she has no neck!
haha!
k
No, I wish! haha...
Just a lady who comes and cleans once every 2 weeks.
haha -
Does he not give you access to the $?
I would just go and get new tires. That is very dangerous. If you have to set up your own checking account and get your money dd in there or buy your own PO Box.
Apart from the tire issue you need access to $ if you don't have it now.
HAHA
i liked that so much i posted it on my personal blog
HAHA!!! you got that right...
haha!!
Im not embarrassed to answer in my PJ's... but I DO feel like I have to take my bathrobe off (which is what i cozy up in over my PJs in the winter time)...
:)
Haha! I like that, maybe you should tell him!..nm
nm
yep, he's a boy, haha....
and he's starting to hike up that hind leg when he goes, BUT, in the apartment, he only goes when I don't take him out for hours, which was the case, for example, last 2 weeks I had the flu and sciatica pains hit at the same time, I was MISERABLE and could hardly bend over to get the leash on the poor little guy, and getting up...gah...and I was so wore out I would literally lose track of time, so I admit the few accidents he has had lately have been because I haven't taken him out.
I dont use piddle pads anymore. He made it easy for me to get rid of them, he started chewing up unused ones to play with for some reason, so I stopped using them. I only have 1 room in the whole apartment now that has anything to piddle on, newspaper, and that is in the utility room, which is the room he stays in if we are gone a lot during the day so he won't make a mess. He will scratch on the door to the utility room. The other times he goes is just accidents, unless there's a blanket on the floor, he will piddle on a blanket on the floor, or piles of laundry on the floor (like in my son's room), but otherwise he hasn't messed on anything. I do plan to get him neutered, but had to wait for the financing thanks to my crappy old job (which, btw, is why I had the name "goincrazyquick" haha, related to my last job). I've since found a new one and after 3 months of in-house training I'm back at home, so now I can get the puppy back on a schedule, myself on a schedule, and get the puppy scheduled for getting him neutered. :)
My cousin has 3 of her 4 dogs pomeranians, and one is a pom mix she got from a friend who found him. she has no problems in her home with 2 males and 2 females, but she said if he's not truly marking territory indoors, which he isn't because the accidents have only been here in the last 2 weeks where I was sick, or only if there is a blanket on the floor, otherwise no other accidents indoors for months, then he should be ok as far as not marking territory indoors. If the person who I got him from is correct on his age, then he turned 1 year beg. of January. Finally have the money to get him fixed, now just have to remember to get that appointment set! I started working midnights, haha, so my time is all out of whack.
I hope the OP is able to get her pup potty-trained too! :)
OMG! LMBO!! haha
nm
haha.. nope. they don't but they may
during teenage years! LOL. TOO FUNNY!
or maybe I'll just second it (haha) (nm)

Haha! How about irregardless? (nm)

Who knows, it's been so long - haha sm
I had a microdermabrasion done at a dermatologist's office - and it was expensive - and then when I realized I was expected to tip I was offended!! I guess 15 or 20% though....lol
who's divorcing who? HaHa - nm

haha! My 5 year old wants to know: Who's driving and what are ALL the
,
haha! I think you hit it right now b/c "It's just money!" is my
husband's fav. term! haha
Yes! Can you see 3 of them? And they are expensive, too. DH HATES it! haha nm
.
what? get in your face? that's why i started with HAHA
i suppose this is the trouble with typing you can't hear my tone. I certainly was not "in your face" and i thought my last paragraph about you never know was not derogatory or rude or anything
im sorry if it came off that way, not intended.
Um, YES and YES?! Haha. Also some of those meds have been found sm
to cause prostate enlargement and I believe prostate cancer.
haha, do you think I could pick up the accent?
or is it instilled in childhood??
haha
and i think i will be driving through there whenever i move back to Nevada!!
haha, my boyfriend was just telling me about this....
Less than 2,000, but the cost of living and such there compared to here, wonder how much it would be if they sold it around here? But, it has no air bags, uses "adhesive" instead of welded on parts, I wonder how great and safe of a car that would really be?
haha, I agree with you on those points! sm
I can fall asleep with my music in my ears. Only issue I would have is if they talk loud enough to be over the music, or if a movie is playing during the long flights and you can't hear the movie because they are talking so loud, otherwise I don't see it being a big deal. What I don't get, though, is they always made it sound like it interferes with the radio controls or something to have wireless laptops on or cell phones. Guess that was just another story they tell to get you to do what they want, lol.
haha, re-read what I typed....
and I realized the part to the OP, the first sentence didn't make sense, I didn't back up far enough, haha. I'm tired, shhhh, lol. I meant to delete the part "I think if you have a health reason" and just start with "I don't think you can..." Hope that makes more sense.
On that note, I'm going to sleep, haha.
HAHA! LOL! OMG! This is hysterical. I laughed at both, but yours made me cry. nm
