A woman pregnant with triplets was walking down the street when a masked robber ran out of a bank and shot her three times in the stomach. Luckily the babies were OK. The surgeon decided to leave the bullets in because it was too risky to operate. She gave birth to two healthy daughters and a healthy son.
All was fine for 16 years, and then one daughter walked into the room in tears.
'What's wrong?' asked the mother. 'I was taking a tinkle and this bullet came out,' replied the daughter.
The mother told her it was okay and explained what happened 16 years ago.
About a week later the second daughter walked into the room in tears. 'Mom, I was taking a tinkle and this bullet ! came out.'
Again the mother told her not to worry and explained what happened 16 years ago.
A week later her son walked into the room in tears. 'It's okay' said the Mom, 'I know what happened You were taking a tinkle and a bullet came out.'
'No,' said the boy, 'I was playing with myself and I shot the dog.'
Sounds like the makings of an olympic gold medalist to me.

Hi all! How is everyone? I'm just sitting at work, doing work (sometimes!), and listening to my AWESOME Leona Lewis CD. Anyone have it? I LOVE IT!!! It's uplifting to me for some reason.
Last night I was a machine! We had to huge piles of branches in the backyard and apparently my IL's weren't going to clean them up and neither were the hired landscapers. So I decided to do it so they're gone since the city starts picking up this week. I grabbed a saw and went to town on the branches! The city wants them 3 feet or smaller and all of these were a minimum of 6 feet. I have one war injury, but that's just a scrape from bringing one of the branches to the curb. Other than that, I felt great about doing something like that. It was like how I felt when I got the entire house ready myself when we put it on the market (before bk'ing it). It was great and D was such a help carrying the branches. It was perfect timing too because it POURED about 5 minutes after coming inside.
Tonight I'll be grilling turkey burgers. Anyone want to join us?
Feeling like crap today, just very down and not hopeful. So I need to come here to post the positives in my life.
*My wonderful D7! *My love for D7 and her's for me! *All the little Mother's Day things she's made for me this week *I have a roof over my head and a car that runs and a job that pays. *My friends I've made here *My friends and family IRL *It's Friday and pay day! *We meet friends on Friday for dinner *I get to see my entire family on Sunday..and hopefully my new baby cousin!
Things I'm down about: *the sitch between me and H is depressing me badly *he emailed me alot yesterday and was so friendly and now nothing since 4pm yesterday *it F's with my head
he emailed me alot yesterday and was so friendly and now nothing since 4pm yesterday
Did I miss something or weren't you supposed to be dark unless it had something to do with D7?
I don't get why you keep playing footsies with him and then getting upset when he's done with the meal and leaves the table. It is inevitable that he will disappear so why keep subjecting yourself to it, Dar? It is a matter of respect. A real friend wouldn't all of a sudden disappear and not talk to you or all of a sudden start being a sh*t for no reason. Let me put it this way: picture a chihuahua. You know how they keep coming back and jumping up at your ankles? Even if you kick them off, they keep coming back just as happy as before they got kicked. So maybe they get kicked harder - but the thing keeps coming back begging for the attention. You are like that where your H is concerned. You lap up any crumb he drops. He ultimately kicks the crap outta you for no apparent reason - but you still keep running back the second he gives you any positive attention. This is a matter of self-respect and self-preservation. STOP letting him do it or you'll be crying by Monday because he lashed out at you again. The power is yours. Draw some friggin boundaries. If it doesn't pertain to D7 - DIRECTLY - ignore him.
You think that's rude? So what. Do it anyway. Not as a strategy of DBing but out of respect for yourself.
