AA, what do you do to keep you up so late?
cal.
i can't sleep, i'm usually up until 2 (or later) every night.......then the alarm goes off at 6:30 and i'm up to start my day.
i find that i'm more alert and productive in the night time, however i am sooo tired of not being able to sleep.
so how about you, night owl or early bird?

i've seen soooo many witnesses taking meds or alcohol because of unhappiness and depression.
i know of one woman who regularly gos to her shrink and is the most depressed person that i know of.
personally, i believe it's because a jw can never do enough to satisfy god or the elders....what do you think?
psychologists, group therapy, AA... et al.
sigh.
i was depressed because nothing made sense to me. i had tried reading the bible in its entirety repeatedly, but could not get passed the incoherence and contradictory nature of Genesis alone.
i was a closet evolutionist and had to somehow make it work in my mind that this jehovah character was the mastermind behind evolution (just that no one in the org. had reached this reasoning yet).
trying to reconcile these two theories is like attempting to combine oil and water - they won't mix. my mind hurt. so i drank and smoked pot, alleviating a lot of the headaches. and Beatrice, my psychologist was also extremely helpful.
feeling pretty good now.

was sitting here post sunday roast and a few beers and listening to a few classics with a naughty twist from the 70's.......... so just for you........who can forget..... ring my bell .... anita ward.
yes sir i can boogie..... baccara.
je t'aime moi non plus..... jane birkin (so dirty, i love it!!).
i was out doing errands and blaring The Band from the car speakers.
nothing like "The Weight" on an early sunday morning!
was thinking about this today while heading' down the road and thought it might be a fun topic.
if you break it down to the simplest degree, and i'm not necessarily talking about 'qualities' here ... but what one word, noun, adverb or adjective would you say describes you best?
for me: passion
one word?
just one...
generous.

eh heh?
i know this is either going to be one of those topics where people consider it a popularity contest or something....i'm just being an imp and seeing if anyone will be forward enough to tell about the person that they would like to date.. me, i'm married so that leaves me out!
but i have seen a lot of beefcakes on here!
oh, i was just reminded, i also have a crush on uncle bruce.
does having so many crushes make me lose my credibility?

yep, thats right, haunted.
i have never had a dwelling place with so many unexplained noise and goings on.
lights that have been turned off, magically turn back on and visa versa.
you should write them a note and leave a pen behind.
in the morning, see if they've answered the note.
hmmm, perhaps they're not english though.
*wink*
<div>my very first visit to this website several years ago, was because i wanted to find out what the few surprises were going to be at the sydney 2003 convention.
(i have family that are jehovahs witnesses but i am not) .
it took a few months to sink in, but i gradually came to accept the real truth that these surprises are nothing of the sort.
that pretty much sums it up...
of course there are the brain management tactics they use to ensure the "loyalty"
of the members.
and though they are all working publishers for the conglomerate publishing house,
no ones gets paid.
