[MamaBush]

*gags*


I ate so much spam when I was living with my daughter's father and had to get food from food pantries, that just the smell of it makes me gag.

why do so many people donate spam to food pantries anyway? It's not like it's all that cheap

[Gnome]

no- but it has a shelf life of a million+ years

In Hawaii, they use the old undergrounf bunkers built in WWII to store tons and tons of cans of Spam. Spam happens to be the State Food and they have contingency plans in place if they ever have a supply shortage, nuke holicaust, whatver... theyre stocked up

[MamaBush]

ya, I read spam lasts up to about 35 years....GROSS.

[xen]

damn...we should never have let zokie use this place as a forwarding address for all his mail for all his medication and shit...:mad:

[Gnome]

whats that?

[xen]

what's what?

[Gnome]

those darn beans!

Xen, dont do as I do, and get em out yer head boy! :lol:

[xen]

what?

[Gnome]

.............ehh?

[MamaBush]

Xen has beans in his head?

[Gnome]

yep, I'm afraid I was a bad example and he done put em in his ears

[MamaBush]

I guess that's better than you guys putting them up your noses

[Gnome]

....uhhh ehhhh... ooops ...... :eek:

[MamaBush]

damn...I done told you not to shove anything up your nose, Gnome

when are you going to start listening to me?

[Gnome]

prolly after smacking me upside the head a few times.

wait... that never worked when me mom did it.

what I put that poor woman through...

[xen]

we've all done it :(

[MamaBush]

not me


I was so quiet when I was a kid, I got away with staying up after everyone else had to go to bed. We still talk about it to this day...my siblings had no idea I was not in bed...even though four of us girls slept in one bedroom.

As I entered my teens, my Mommy trusted me completely because I was always honest with her...got a lot of priveleges that my siblings didn't due to being so honest...I WAS A GOOD GIRL *smiles*

[Gnome]

relativly quiet people are rare and distinctive- I understand why your mom trusted you.


I was the oldest, and as my mom put it, the only child of hers who lived. not to say I was always on the up and up, but I was technicaly the man of the house.

I came and went pretty much as I pleased, becasue moms knew I wasnt fuckin up...mostly...

[MamaBush]

I was the invisible middle kid

was the only kid who got straight As all through school

the only kid who my mom never got calls from the school on for doing bad shit...she got calls about the good I did

was also the only kid who did any form of volunteer work all through highschool

the only kid who always did as my mom told me to do....so on and so on

[Gnome]

I would imagine you both learned a lot about yourselves and your truths. those are damn fine lessons to have

makes you strong

[MamaBush]

makes one much more independent as well

I'm the only female child that has not felt the NEED to be married...my sisters all feel they HAVE to be married, and cannot make it without a man to help them out.

Hell, both of my still living sisters have stayed with husbands that cheat on them quite often, treat them like servants, and have no regard for their opinions....simply because they can't live alone...damned shame to be afraid to be by yourself and would rather put up with being treated like shit just so you aren't alone.

[Gnome]

yea pretty greivious, no one deserves to be treated like like a robot, but then some people have no spirit.

it's good to know the difference between solace and lonliness

[MamaBush]

true dat


I love being alone...I also love being around people, when I want to be around people.

I think that's part of the reason I've never said YES to any marriage proposals (except Xen's of course).....the thought of living under one roof with another person for any length of time makes me wanna scream..I NEED my alone time, and not many men I know understand that...."D" does, which is why we've hit it off so well for so many years now.

[Gnome]

many people seem to not understand that. Those tend to be people who like to run their mouths way too much. bla bla. I have my moments but other than that I'm fairly quiet. too much talking gives me a headache.

I'll get teh occasional attitude- 'Hmmm he likes to walk alone in the Desert, he's weird'

or considered anti-social. perhaps to a degree, I'm particular about who I like to socialize with. Usually with people who are creative or have a sense of humor, generaly people who are genuine. Egotistical braggards get zero attention span from me.

It is one reason why I consider myself lucky with my wife. SHe too enjoys her alone time and we both converse at the same rate.

[MamaBush]

all is good then.

my last serious relationship guy was sooo clingy....always wanting me to be at his place, or he at mine..he just didn't get the fact that I have to be alone. Caused way too much drama for me...I like my life even keeled and balanced

[Gnome]

balance is most important. I know mostly where my unbalances are, discovering good solutions to them that stick is the hard part. and many people who like drama, or seem to be drawn to it, are some of the most unbalanced of all

[MamaBush]

misery loves company

[Gnome]

no doubt, it needs to propigate itself

[MamaBush]

ack...miserable people can stay the hell away from me

[Gnome]

those are people who drain your energy away if you let them.

[MamaBush]

I refuse to let them.

which is why I refuse to ever spend much time with my father...he's a miserable man, always has been. Has always seen the negative side of everything and everyone, rarely seeing the positives of anything in his life, including us kids.

[Gnome]

i understand

My mom was usually a positive person, but as she got older she drank more and had some technicolor levels of drama. my fathers a bit like that too. I struggle with that legacy. As a creative person, I have to watch out when I shift from either extreme, sometimes I'm not aware that I'm feeling down or negative and wake up only after taking it out on others- I sure dont want to be considered an asshole

[MamaBush]

hmmm....one must think before reacting, Gnome.

ha, I have my kids to tell me when I'm acting like an uncalled for bitch....their honesty helps greatly.

[Gnome]

of course they're the root cause of some of it too I imagine :lol:

[MamaBush]

most times, no


the majority of the time, it's ignorant and/or lazy staff that turn me into a bitch

[Gnome]

I guess I'm lucky that I dont work with a bunch of ignorant people. Although there are many lazy people. I work around a bunch of engineers. It's funny to get a group of dorks together where each one thinks they know everything about everything and then they argue, or debate the finer points of Darth Vaders sustained injuries, for two hours.

[MamaBush]

hahahaha......sounds like a good time to me

[Gnome]

it has it's moments

but when the topic of discusion ad infinitum is the intricacies of Front line Force (http://www.frontlineforce.com/) it's time to go check out the lowbows in technical publications
