GM's thread about nothing (29 Viewers)

[krista4]

Why are you sad Krista?

I'm a bit of an emotional #### this week. Pregnancy hormones I think.

Probably pregnancy hormones for me, too.

Honestly I don't really know. Not like a suicidal sad, but just extraordinarily glum for a while.

Yours makes sense; you have a lot of stresses (both good and bad) in your life right now.

I think you're searching for something. You already found the right partner for your journey. Enjoy the freedom that you have and stop searching for what will complete your story and instead let the story find you.

You are extremely wise.

This is a different high-school "friend". I might need to leave Facebook. "Yes for the post I put up 12 hours ago I was reading my bible an the one I have but little saying so I wrote that because there r people out there going though a lot right now no jobs dead beat parents that a Mom or dad family that mess. On u etc.As everyone who know me I always help everyone else and this is a New Year I not fake I tell u how. I feel and my mother said don't do that but I do I believe in saying it to your face not behind your back that how I always been .Life is to Short People Dying or getting Kill Car Wrecks .Like My Mother Said Time is Running Out We All Need To Get It Right in Our Life And With God"

The postings that piss me off are of the passive/aggressive sort that are begging for "Oh my, dear! Are you ok?" responses.

The benign Jebus posts don't bother me that much, I just scroll past those.

My SIL is masterful at those. She'll do something like a "check-in" at an urgent care center without further explanation. So annoying.

Text from Mata just now: "if you care about any surface in your house, go to Lowes and get tarps before I get there tomorrow"

Nice knowing y'all, 'cause I think I'm dead one way or another.

GB bentley, I saw your post last night directed at me but didn't reply because I was going on three nights without sleep and feeling really sad. Today I'm going on four nights without sleep but feeling less sad.

Anyway, I'm really sorry as my post must have sounded obnoxious. What I intended but likely did a poor job of communicating is that I feel like I don't fit in the South, and the tendency to get really dressed up for no reason and wear a lot of makeup is one aspect of the South that is really weird to me--weird as in different than my experience for the vast majority of my life, not weird as in wrong. I didn't mean to imply that it was weird for you guys to dress up, especially if you were doing it because it was a fun date night for you not because you felt you had to. I also forgot that you were in Austin--particularly strange given that I had someone develop and install a "what's bentley doing now" app on my phone--which is undoubtedly more laid-back than other parts of Texas anyway.

All just to say sorry if I offended you, and I'm glad you and AngryWife had such a nice night.

I can understand this, k4. I grew up in a very southern household with a very small but strong southern matriarch. I went to a very southern school (The University of the South, for crying out loud). Against my will, I made my debut, etc.

I haven't worn makeup other than the occasional mascara (engagement party, wedding) in over 5 years. My husband actually prefers no makeup. It's just not for me.

But when the occasion calls for it (wedding, party, etc.), I LOVE putting on a cocktail dress. Maybe it's because those of us in the South all live in overalls, so we love the chance to put on our fancy clothes?

You'll be fine. She's just harvesting a kidney.

Unless, of course, you're a moops alias

I'm lost on the reference, but at anyone getting MY kidneys.

Hell, my liver & lungs too

moops valiantly gave up a kidney for a transplant for his father.

[UniAlias]

Uni - are you at Winstar? If so my family has an old barn just on the other side of the river you can sleep in. Would probably be more protection from the elements than you're used to.

I'm at Choctaw. Things that suck about OK casinos:

- Beer is 3.2%

- They charge you for them

- They're constantly playing country music over the speakers.

Insane how much action this circuit event gets though. Place is packed.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Damn, I fell asleep at like 9:30 last night. Looks like I missed out on all of the fun.

Just to Hipple:

• I'm wearing pants
• Re Bob's love note: link
• I've never taken E or X. I'll probably never be drug tested (yay unions!). I feel like I should take advantage of that.
• Indian casinos suck ###. At the one up where Gator lives you cannot drink on the casino floor. You can smoke all you want though. But there is a very small bar with video poker where you can drink but good luck getting a seat. The card tables are packed as well. And I'm 90% that all of the slot machines are exactly the same but with different names.

I gave a gay friend of mine like a five-hour massage when I did. Be careful.

TRE, we leave for Turks and Caicos tomorrow morning. Thanks again for the info and recommendations.

I'm going to have to work while we're there so will be mostly on the computer, but overlooking the water from a 2000-sq-ft hotel room. I also intend to start watching Breaking Bad while there. Mr. krista is planning to spend all his time at the beach re-reading Pale Fire and reading the newest Thomas Pynchon. We're party animals.

If those drugs make you want to give/get massages I guess I need to avoid them.

And watch out for modern-day pirates* in the T&C.

*Just realized I'm probably the only one that will get that joke.

Sounds like a great working vacation k4. Although the closest I would get to reading Pynchon is watching his Simpsons episode.

I'm going to Vegas tomorrow for a dinner and meeting on Monday then San Francisco for a dinner and meeting Tuesday. I love going to both those places. Kinda hate that I'm mostly going to see airports, hotels and conference rooms.

GB bentley, I saw your post last night directed at me but didn't reply because I was going on three nights without sleep and feeling really sad. Today I'm going on four nights without sleep but feeling less sad.

Anyway, I'm really sorry as my post must have sounded obnoxious. What I intended but likely did a poor job of communicating is that I feel like I don't fit in the South, and the tendency to get really dressed up for no reason and wear a lot of makeup is one aspect of the South that is really weird to me--weird as in different than my experience for the vast majority of my life, not weird as in wrong. I didn't mean to imply that it was weird for you guys to dress up, especially if you were doing it because it was a fun date night for you not because you felt you had to. I also forgot that you were in Austin--particularly strange given that I had someone develop and install a "what's bentley doing now" app on my phone--which is undoubtedly more laid-back than other parts of Texas anyway.

All just to say sorry if I offended you, and I'm glad you and AngryWife had such a nice night.

I can understand this, k4. I grew up in a very southern household with a very small but strong southern matriarch. I went to a very southern school (The University of the South, for crying out loud). Against my will, I made my debut, etc.

I haven't worn makeup other than the occasional mascara (engagement party, wedding) in over 5 years. My husband actually prefers no makeup. It's just not for me.

But when the occasion calls for it (wedding, party, etc.), I LOVE putting on a cocktail dress. Maybe it's because those of us in the South all live in overalls, so we love the chance to put on our fancy clothes?

No offense, but you two could wear burlap sacks, no makeup, and slay hearts across the room.

I'd feel good about myself but a man with less than 24 hours to live will say just about anything.

Nah. If I had more time to live, I would say anything (though what I said was true). No time to waste on lies now.

I can understand this, k4. I grew up in a very southern household with a very small but strong southern matriarch. I went to a very southern school (The University of the South, for crying out loud). Against my will, I made my debut, etc.

I haven't worn makeup other than the occasional mascara (engagement party, wedding) in over 5 years. My husband actually prefers no makeup. It's just not for me.

But when the occasion calls for it (wedding, party, etc.), I LOVE putting on a cocktail dress. Maybe it's because those of us in the South all live in overalls, so we love the chance to put on our fancy clothes?

No offense, but you two could wear burlap sacks, no makeup, and slay hearts across the room.

I'd feel good about myself but a man with less than 24 hours to live will say just about anything.

I keep imagining Bill's house just draped in tarps too.

Also, Fishcam.

fish, I read in the Seattle thread I just bumped that your friend is an owner of Quinn's. We went for drinks there after house-hunting one day in December. Didn't get a chance to try the food, but loved the look and vibe of the place; also, a well-thought-out wine list. If we moved to Capitol Hill it would be our go-to hangout.
