1) No, this is not great! :pound: *mumble mutter*
2) This one I "can't" answer this morning. *sigh* But you already know the answers anyway.
3) Six hours, give or take, with Daddy. And before everyone's jaw drops on the floor.... We had to drive Surf's pickup up to Seattle to ship to HI (which took two vehicles, obviously, as we had to get back home, too), so we chatted on our cell phones most of the way up there. But... since it was Dad and me.... there were looooooooong periods of quiet, too. :) But it was nice knowing he was 'there'.

I think that perhaps the aforementioned gentleman is very likely need of some sleep!
Aw... that was so NOT what I meant. :( I was thinking funny.

Nay, there is no defense against the truth.

See the chocolate/I missed it thread.

I apologize about yesterday..however, Miss Ruby, isn't that prima facie evidence that I am indeed the Grumpyest of the Grumpye?

Nope. It just means you had a crummy day. And no apology was needed. Truly.

Yes. For instance:
Jason--the scary guy (but I haven't seen him in quite a while. *sigh of relief*)
Bob--the strange guy (gave me a set of CDs of a marriage seminar) :roll: :roll: :roll: And btw.... the answer is still no, Bob. LOL
Robert--the nice UPS guy (who throws the heavy boxes closer to my counter, so I don't have to lift them)
Stephen--the sweetly obnoxious guy (who is finally taller than I am, and ever so proud of the fact)
Shall I continue? :cool:
Oh, and then there's the guy that I wish was in my life. Does he count if he's not currently in my life, but I wish he was? ;)
:beret:
Poor Bob
Poor Bob?!?! Poor Bob nothin'! :biglaugh:

Ooooo yeah, I know....never give away your phone....thats not good, not good at all.

Miss Ruby,
Why am I still tired today? I had more sleep than I often do, maybe even six hours! I should be fine until tomorrow morning!
John :waving:
Are you sure you want me to answer that? *smile*
Hey, don't feel too bad.... I had 9+ hrs of sleep last night :o and I'm still tired, too. :-\ Mental tired is ever so much harder to beat than physical tired, ya know? And when the two are combined? Eek!
:sing: I just wanna go hoooommmmeeee..... :sing:
Hmmm.... I think I'm going to make a special point today to look for happy things, and things I can be thankful for. Watch out world! Here comes Pollyanna! ;)
:beret:
Be happy that you get a phone call from across the country and they tell you they thought of you cause they saw a vespa. A pink one even. :)
I _am_ happy about that! :D Surprise phone calls are fun.... especially on 'free' days. And especially when they have to do with Vespas. ;)
Here's my happy list so far:
I'm happy that I have a goofy sticker on my shirt. (It's making me smile, even if no one else is smiling about it. LOL)
I'm happy that I have today off work.
I'm happy that I was able to have a mocha with Mama and the kids today.
I'm happy that I got to go for a walk.
I'm happy that it's gorgeous fall weather outside.
I'm happy that God is good.
I'm happy that He loves me.
I'm happy that I have hope again.
I'm just.... happy. :)

Last time I was in Tulsa (a weekend ago) I saw a vespa....poor thing was struggling to make it up the hill...
No Power at all, though of course the rider probably had a small amount to do with that..
The rider must not have been petite like Ruby, she would make a perfect Vespa rider.

However, I'd look pretty funny on a big touring bike. LOL *glares at Surf* No comments from the audience, please. :bah:

What is your favorite constellation and why?
First off.... :eek!:
I just noticed you quoted me in your sig line. :o I'm truly shocked.
*Hugs* Jaybee for thinking I'm quotable. :)
As to your question, I was completely fascinated by stars when I was about 8 or so... but I've forgotten most of what I learned. LOL That was a long time ago. ;) Not sure that I really have a favorite constellation.... hmm.... maybe Leo the lion, because he makes me think of Aslan. :)
:beret:
Do you snore?
And does it bother you if other people snore and you are sleeping near them?
I've been told I don't snore, but since I'm not awake to find out for myself... I guess I don't know for sure. *smile*
:beret:
You didnt answer the second part of that question.
Oh, sorry. I'm not functioning very well tonight.
Um.... sometimes it bothers me, other times not. But, if I can sleep through Daddy's snoring across the house, I'm pretty sure anyone else's would be a piece of cake in comparison. ;)

I recently saw "Grease" in theatres and it was so amazing! So, if you could see one old film on the big screen - which would it be? How about your top five?
(I'm not sure if you go to movie theaters, but if you DID! ;) )
*smile* Thanks, Jaybee. You're heartwarming.
Re: the question... I don't make a big deal about it, but I've chosen not to go to theaters. (I don't look down my nose at friends who choose differently, but I don't feel comfortable doing that for myself.) BUT.... ;) I'm quite fond of The Sound of Music, Sarah Plain & Tall, and Anne of Green Gables. Those probably don't quite qualify for the category you wanted, but those are the first that came to mind. :grin:
:beret:
Cars would be awesome on the big screen too...
(BTW, you answered that question with the way I feel about it too... Naturally!)
WOW...I had to dig this off of page 3!

And what was the end result of those services?

Sounds good to me. New England has weird names for things.
Short story: I went to a restraunt, in Boston, once and asked for a malted, thinking in NY they say malted instead of malt like we do. Anyway, they didn't know what I meant, so I described it. They said, "OOOOOHHHHH you mean a frappe." So I had a frappe (Pronounced FRAP).
A few weeks later, I went to Friendlys Icecream Parlour and asked for a frappe. They said, "OOOHHHH That's a fribble!"
Most people didn't believe me when I told them that, so when I went back to Boston a couple of years ago, I went to Friendlys and got a fribble and saved the cup. NOW I HAVE PROOF! :laughhard:

That was an inside joke about a story I wrote from a bizarre incident from that town. Coincidentally, that same town just had an instant where a guy avoiding law enforcment dumped his dope in the bathroom trash can of a convenience store I jut went over to, to get a candy bar.
I'll PM you the story about what happened at the bakery.
John :waving:
Candy bar huh? You sure thats all you got from there? :freaky2:

if you recieved a million dollars what would you do?
Ill answer for her... :hypocrite:
She would take a month off and come see us in Florida, then off to Hong Kong for another month, and finish it off in Hawaii!!
Then she MIGHT get back to a normal life.
Other than having the order of the trips exactly backwards.... yeah, you know me pretty well. ;) I'd also send my Dad and Mom on a much-needed three month vacation. The rest would go into missions of some sort.
:beret:
EXCUSE ME? You would make me wait another THREE months to get a visit from you? Im LAST?? Well its a good thing that... :ignore: Ummmm nevermind ;)
*laugh* Humble apologies, Mel, but...
Trent comes first--DUH
And then Kim--'cause she's been one of my best friends for.... nearly forever. *smile* And we only get to see each other an average of once per 2-3 years. :sadbounce:
And then you--'cause I'd really love to meet you. :)

So....what is the guy's name at the bank?
Have you asked him to church yet?
What does your Daddy say?
I don't know the name of that guy at your bank.

Haven't seen Daddy yet this morning, but when I do, I'm sure he'll say "good morning".

Ooo, that's a tough one, Barb. :) So many good ones. *thinking hard* (I'll assume you mean stories other than the story of the Good News itself.)
The story of Joseph would certainly be towards the top of my list, because I admire his strength and character in the face of such incredibly difficult circumstances. Every time I read it I feel encouraged that God can take all the things that hurt me, all the things that I struggle through, all the times people mistreat and misuse me (even false accusations), all the times I don't understand... and still turn them into good things in my life.
Esther's story would also be a favorite, because even though it never actually mentions God, His hand is seen all the way through. This one reminds me that even when I don't see Him working... He is. And I can trust Him even when I don't understand.
Funny. Both of those are from the Old Testament. *thinks again* Favorite New Testament story would probably be Mary with the alabaster box, because I can identify with a number of things from her story.

awesome thoughts. goes right along with what seems to be a theme with the other favorite stories :thumbsup2:
Ya know what, Barb? That's funny you caught the 'theme' going on in the answers. I don't know that I would've picked up on that, but.... I've been thinking lately about how people's lives may play out differently, but underneath all the surface stuff we all still struggle with the very same issues.
:beret:
Yep. What she said.
yeah, normally what makes us struggle so is, we compare our insides to others outsides. when we look at other people all we can see is whats on the outside, and they appear to us to have it all together, then we compare that to our insides, and feel like something must be wrong with me, because i cant look on the outside like everyone else.
being alone so much like i am right now, i tend to feel that i am so much worse than everyone else, i must be really messed up, because from where i stand, everyone else has it so much more figured out.
but if i take time to listen to what others are really saying, (sometimes without saying) then i would know, i am afterall, normal.

Thats alot on the lines of what Mom and I discussed recently... and what Ruby and I have talked about recently too.
Not to mention that Bro Shambeau was talking about it this morning as well...
Dont yall just love how themes carry over into everything when God is trying to tell us somthing?
Awesome!

If you could visit any time period from history, which time period would you visit, and why?
Probably medieval times, for the silly reason that the upper-class ladies wore really beautiful clothes. :lol:
Another would be the civil war era. The answer to 'why' is more serious on this one: I could see myself involved in freeing slaves. I don't necessarily agree with all the methods that were used, but the idea of setting captives free is one I believe in.

Hmmm...
John :waving:
I remember when I first got my passport. It was SOOOOO too cool! I journaled about it. lol Not many people understood why on earth I was so excited. I still really like my passport a lot. It represents my freedom. It represents my citizenship. It represents my ability to go places that I couldn't go before.
*three cheers* for the passport!
:clap: :clap: :clap:
Mine has a year an a half left on it before I need to get it renewed...I cant believe it has been THAT long since I went anywhere...maybe I need to look into flights for a trip...I bet I could find some Missionaries that would enjoy me coming for a visit...maybe the Parkers... Hmmmm ;)
I had a passport once. I think I was 5. LOL
:beret:
We got one each this year before they changed and have a chip put into them. So we're safe for at least ten years anyway. We took them to Mexico on our cruise.

And.... you'll be happy to know... I was given a sizable gift card to Starbucks by my Auntie. ;)

you had friend onions? what exactly is a friend onion? one that doesn't react the same to the olfactory senses as a regular onion thereby making it more friend friendly after consumption?

Blah. There are a thousand and one things I would love to change about myself. The hardest thing would probably be my perfectionistic tendencies.

How many reasons did you want me list?
--I'm the Ice Maiden (Be afraid, be very afraid)
--The schedule was jammed tighter than the marionberries in a pie, so there was no time to fall in love. *cough*
--The guys I was with were either A) related, or B) not interested (See? No investigation needed here.)
--I made sure to have my unapproachable air about me as I strolled the hallways. .... It worked.

Well... knowing your way with twisting words... first off, I'm not drunk... never have been. :updown:
Worst-tea-wise--I'd have to say it was something totally nasty that David tried to make, using a plant from his garden. :yell: :shudder: Tasted kinda like he'd brewed an artichoke. A rancid one, at that. *shudder*
The worst 'normal' tea that I've had--Mmm... probably chamomile. I know, I know, everyone else likes it... but I think it's icky. :yell:

Mel, the honest answer is, I'm sitting here staring at your questions with not a clue how to answer. I'm... struggling right now. I know He's good, and I know He's there... but lately, I can't seem to find Him.

WOW. I just saw this, and I knew that already remember? I was trying to help you to see Him, and find the goodness that He has shown you in your life. I want you to see Him for who He is, and what blessings He has brought in your life.
*TIGHT HUG*
And I know. Ive been there, and I am there most days. *sigh* But we have to help each other.
