I bet you say that to all the guys :rofl:
good morning :)

[billyskank]

4. I do

:hi:

[Random_Australian]

5. Aha, were you to see me you would take back the claims of 'lovely'

:rofl:

I'm about to have tea, actually. How about you?

:hi:
:pals:

[billyskank]

6. Morning R_A

No tea for me thanks. It is a day for austerity. :hi:

[Random_Australian]

24. What does austerity mean again?

[MissHoneychurch]

7. Good morning billy

How are you today?

:loveya: :hug:

[billyskank]

8. Hi MissH

:hug: I am developing a headache, which is normal. :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

10. Why is it normal??

too much bullshit at work???

I will get my pictures from London during my lunch break. That means I can post them tonight :hi:

[billyskank]

13. Today is a restricted diet day

No grains: no bread, rice, pasta, or anything like that. Only fruits, root vegetables and water. I always find it tough when I have to do it at work. You get so much energy from grains. I almost always get a headache on these days.

[MissHoneychurch]

16. But I thought

water helps getting rid of an headache.

Sorry you get an headache. Does tigerbalm helps you? My mom uses it when she gets an headache. And it would have the plus of bosses and co-workres staying away from you ... LOL

:hug:

[billyskank]

17. Only if the headache is caused by dehydration

This one isn't; I'm drinking lots of water.

To be completely honest, it's probably a caffeine withdrawal symptom.

[MissHoneychurch]

20. You aren't even allowed to drink coffee???

:wow:

How about tea? It might help????

[billyskank]

22. Not today

No beans, either. Tea is forbidden also. The only allowed drinks are water, milk and fruit juice.

[MissHoneychurch]

25. And I guess

an Aspirin isn't allowed either. You should go home and sleep.

[billyskank]

26. Medicines are allowed

I can't go home to sleep. This day happens every two weeks. I just have to deal with it.

[MissHoneychurch]

31. It is almost lunchbreak

:hug:

Just got the pictures from London. You look great!!!

[billyskank]

32. Now we have to wait till evening

x(


:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

33. But only the Europeans

the Americans till early afternoon :D

:hug:

[Callalily]

39. Morning MissH!

And I will wait patiently (ahem) for those pics. Can't wait to see them.

[MissHoneychurch]

40. Morning Simply

every morning it is a surprise in which thread you will pop up to wish me a good morning. It is kinda funny.

I will send you a link so that you won't miss it.

:hug: :loveya:

[Callalily]

43. Thanks I truly

Gotta head out to work now. Wishing you a great day! Will look forward to the pics.

63. I did not know you are Hindu--

I took some kind of quiz when I first came on here and it said my beliefs were of Hindu:shrug:

I really do not know what I am:rofl:

sometimes I think I hold NOTHING sacred and sometimes I think I hold EVERYTHING sacred:wtf:

I might on my worst days be agnostic and angry but, atheism just does NOT compute for me--it just does not add up that way
