i never thought i would do one of those infamous goodbye i cant take this board anymore posts where the person shows up again a week later and looks like an idiot.

when i had enough of this board and needed a little break i would just quietly leave for a few months and hopefully nobody noticed.

that is not the case this time.

i am relaxing in my lay-z-boy recliner, online with a laptop.

our dog , sparky, is lying right next to me.

he is a 12lb silky terrier- he looks like an overgrown yorkie .

WHAT'S THE WORST JOB YOU EVER HAD?

by Mary in

the worst one i ever had was working in a frozen chicken factory.

there were about 30 of us in a freezing cold room and my shit job was to feel the half-frozen chicken breasts up, to see if there were any little bones in them.

well after the first 5 minutes my frigging fingers were frozen stiff, so i couldn't tell if there were any bones in there or not........after 20 minutes it felt like my hands were having an out of body experience and if they weren't in front of my frozen face, i would've thought they had dropped off.

I sold 'The Big Issue' (homeless/vulnerably housed people sell it to gain some income) for an afternoon to experience how it feels.

I managed to sell two mags in 4 hours found it very difficult to keep smiling in spite of... and some of the disgusting, derogatory and insulting comments I received made me very and sometimes quite frightened.

There are people out there who think homelessness will never happen to them because - 'of course homeless people deserve it'

- yeah right

They just don't get it do they?

Beautiful - Christina Aguilera Everyday is so wonderful, then suddenly, its hard to breathe
Now and then I get insecure, from all the pain
Im so ashamed

I am beautiful no matter what they say
Words cant bring me down
I am beautiful in every single way
Yes words cant bring me down
So dont you bring me down today

To all your friends youre delirious
So consumed in all your doom
Trying hard to fill the emptiness, the pieces gone
Left the puzzle undone, is that the way it is

You are beautiful no matter what they say
Words cant bring you down
Cause you are beautiful in every single way
Yes words cant bring you down
So dont you bring me down today

No matter what we do
No matter what we say
Were the song inside the tune, full of beautiful mistakes
And everywhere we go, the sun will always shine
And tomorrow we might awake on the other side

Cause we are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes words wont bring us down, no
We are beautiful in every single way
Yes words cant bring us down
So dont you bring me down today

Is the world out to get you?

i have spoken to people more often then i could ever count, who seem to think it is.

they claim that things are always going wrong for them or that odds never seem to be in their favor.

yet to me, when looking closer, i think there are bigger issues of responsibility and paying attention to what is happening that is involved.

Sad emo

I felt that way until very recently. If things were going well for me, I used to expect something bad to happen - which it inevitably does eventually, silly me! I just never learned to seperate the two.

I've started to challenge my thinking as soon as I get that 'somethings bound to go wrong' feeling, I know that the good doesn't cause the bad, it's just life. It's pointless to go looking for things to go wrong.

Then again, there's that saying:

Blessed are the pessimists for they shall never be disappointed...

Can you celebrate your 100th birthday when you are a JW?

by blondie in

as a devout jehovah's witness, mrs. merle is prohibited from celebrating her birthday.

but a week from tomorrow, relatives and friends will flock to the camoset village country living mobile home park in johnstown to attend a super bowl party that just happens to feature ice cream and cake.. "that's why we're calling it a super bowl party," explained her son bob merle, 73, who lives just five trailers down the road.

"we don't celebrate birthdays, but we have to celebrate 100 years," said mrs. mechem, 78.

BTW it is reputed that in the UK one receives a telegram from the Queen on your 100th. I cannot swear that that is true. But if so, would you have to send it back?

Yes, this is true, everyone reaching 100 gets a telegram.

Might be considered treason to send it back though - still a capital offence AFAIK - so it might be safer to celebrate the birthday after all in this instance!!
