1. a "shower" as in "baby shower" or "wedding shower" was when a bunch of people got together to take a shower together.
which didn't go over well with me when my mom wanted to go to a shower without my dad.. 2. when my father said to my mom that he was going to marry somebody, as in do there vows or something, i thought he was going to marry somebody else and start another family.
i almost fainted when he told me that he was leaving to go do that.
I was determined to have blonde children. I'm not blonde. I thought that if I dyed my pubic hair blonde the children would be.
Worst of all - I was still under this delusion until I was 18 or 19. I apologise to anyone who thought I was remotely bright up to this point for misleading you.
when i was 9 i wanted to be daisy duke from the dukes of hazzard, but had to put aside the dream when i realised my legs weren't going to ever get any longer.. when i was 12 i wanted to be ghandi, but realised wars wouldnt stop because i missed breakfast.. when i was 16 i decided that by leaving the borg and living fast and hard enough being alice cooper was achievable.. now i'm 32 i think i'd quite like to have the sensuous, striking confidence and certainty of helen mirren when i grow up.. who did you want to be and why?.
Some of your answers are so cute and funny!
Mincan - self sufficient backwoodsman sounds like something I'd enjoy too.
XOCO - Kudos to ya - Skunk Anansie is fantastic! Put the song into your procedures/research perhaps. Who says SA can't inspire things in health and science! Its all about interpretation.
At the moment I feel like Virginia Woolf without the genius - slightly bonkers and sexually ambiguous.
i was just thinking about this the other day, about how my ideas of a romantic partner have changed since being a jw.. growing up, i thought i would marry a very upstanding jw, we would pioneer together, do missionary work, have children, see the world.
(never had any thoughts about bethel, though.
) so what it boiled down to was a stepford husband, up tight, not the least bit sexual, closed minded bore.. so now that i have grown up, seen the world, been married (and actually picked a good man the first time, although it didn't work out), i just contrast that with what i am attracted to now.. i like them open minded, earthy, i love artistic types because i am a published writer, hair doesn't matter to me (long/short, bald, etc), challenges convention, very sexual, still like a traveling man.. i am just curious if you anyone else can compare and contrast how their ideas have changed since breaking out the group-think of the jw organization..
female...
was gonna say breathing but...well why limit myself
SNORT! LMAO! I'm attracted to the deviant variety - doesnt matter what gender.
i have almost completed the first year of my adult life (since 18) as a bachelorette and was wondering what others' experience of singledom is?
what would you say are the advantages to being single (other than being able to pioneer .
what are the things you miss the most about a relationship?.
I knew I could count on at least two people to post on this thread - Tij and Finally Free! LOL!
How was your flight? and did you feel any better that day?
big d
Unfortunately we got half way to the airfield and pilots called in that there was extreme turbulence, so I got to see a fair bit of Dallas from Wanderlust's Blue Satan the Devil Truck and then ended up at a comedy club heckling some poor Texans. I felt much better after that!
it's future fiction with some elements of science fiction to it (very few elements).
the setting is post world war iii america, where the u.s. was conquered by china and then freed into a patchwork of anarchist and feudal systems when china's economy collapsed.
i'm writing in first-person from my perspective as an 67-year-old man in 2049. i live with my daughter and grandson.
Will this be your first work of fiction? I like that you have a good plan worked out - I tend to get lost in the detail. You should probably be careful about putting too much info in public circulation though.
Good luck with your project!

I love Belle & Sebastian. However choosing between the virile specimen in the video and my elderly, but nevertheless charming salt of the earth type (who always uses a fresh bucket of water for my window), I think I'll stick with what I've got thanks.
And yes Big D I do remember you unmistakably, you said I sounded posh - thank goodness there were no other Brits there to disabuse you of the fact or tell you that I am really common-as-muck rather than Lady Muck.

That's when you usually find someone.
Well since I dont leave the house for weeks at a time - I have a choice between my windowcleaner or the grocery delivery guy (and he changes every fortnight)!

Growing up is overrated.
Why, Nvr, I never realised you had experience of it!

Just because someone is available doens't mean they're a good match.
I'M NOT????
Blondie - I think if anyone has shown evidence of being productive here its you. And you are one of the warmest souls I've had the pleasure to meet.
Don't worry Bisous - I'm not looking for anyone. I stopped looking a few months ago.
