8. why no good mood?
When I feel crappy I try and find things to do that interest me, like learning some new software or something. Heaven forbid I go out and do yard work, its too hard. :)

10. Sounds like a good idea
I could try to mess around with photoshop learning every control and what it does. Just feel crappy that's all, but I'm fine.

7. Hi all! 10:23 pm here, still daylight (no dusk at all)
Edited on Thu May-13-04 01:31 AM by northofdenali
Got a cute joke from fellow DU'er, Crewleader.........

One day, in line at the company cafeteria, Jack says to Mike behind him,"My elbow hurts like hell. I guess I better see a doctor."

"Listen, you don't have to spend that kind of money" Mike replies. "There's a diagnostic computer down at Walmart. Just give it a urine sample and the computer will tell you what's wrong and what to do about it. It takes ten seconds and costs ten dollars. A lot cheaper than a doctor."

So Jack deposits a urine sample in a small jar and takes it to Walmart. He deposits ten dollars, and the computer lights up and asks for the urine sample. He pours the sample into the slot and waits. Ten seconds later, the computer ejects a printout: "You have tennis elbow. Soak your arm in warm water and avoid heavy activity. It will improve in two weeks."

That evening while thinking how amazing this new technology was, Jack began wondering if the computer could be fooled. He mixed some tap water, a stool sample from his dog, urine samples from his wife and daughter, and masturbated into the mixture for good measure. Jack hurries back to Walmart, eager to check the results.

He deposits ten dollars, pours in his concoction, and awaits the results.

The computer prints the following:

1. Your tap water is too hard. Get a water softener.

2. Your dog has ringworm. Bathe him with anti-fungal shampoo.

3. Your daughter has a cocaine habit. Get her into rehab.

4. Your wife is pregnant. Twins. They aren't yours. Get a lawyer.

5. If you don't stop playing with yourself, your elbow will never
get better.

Thank you for shopping at Walmart!


:P :P :P

12. I stopped smoking today.
Don't piss me off. I switched to rolling my own from prepackaged ones a few months ago and that made me go from 30 to 3 per day. That was a few months ago. Now the first drag of the day makes me gag. I have been awake for 19 hours without a smoke and I feel fine.. I never want one again.
