Fried, poached, scrambled?

by compound complex in

greetings, egg eaters:.

it's about 3:30 a.m., my usual hour up and writing.

eggs and onions are on the range, even as we speak.. i'm thinking of one of my favorite actresses, margaret rutherford, and her husband, stringer davis, who had the custom of a midnight repast of bacon and eggs.. do you down cackleberries with relish?

I like them in an omlette (Outlaw, my cholesterol went up just looking at that masterpiece!), scrambled, or made into a breakfast burrito.

hey guys, well, idk where to turn to at this point, but i feel like pouring my heart out to a random people, so please hear me out.. .

okay, so i have been online dating, for um, about a year or two, i am 15, and i am not sure if any of you have heard the "sixth sense" i have that, and i feel i can trust this dude, so i am sure he is who he says he is, i don't have any bad vibes about him...except he's an athiest :( but other than that, he is a really nice guy, we have started dating this month.

yes, we have cybering, but not much, and no, we dont send any explicit pics and we're both virgins.

Sorry, double post. I got a bit impatient and sent twice.

how do i change my profile picture?

See this announcement in the forum support section. Those avatars come from a third-party web site, and you can change it there. The default one is randomly generated, based on your email address.

I'm sorry if I came across as a gruff dad earlier, but that's my role in real life. Seeing the phrase "dating site" did set off alarms, as you later realized. But even with texts or chat, please be careful, OK? Not everybody is what they seem to be online. If it's anything you wouldn't want your mom to see, you'd better think twice, if not three times, about what you're doing.

Does anyone else have galloping horses in their computer?

sometimes my computer speakers get a thumping/drumming noise that sounds like horses galloping.

very rhythmic.

it lasts a few seconds.

GLTirebiter

Would it help to put it off in another part of the house, way away from the computer?

Yes, that would help you find out if the phone is the problem. There's some chance it could be a wireless network adaptor, but that's a small chance--they are much less powerful than a cell phone.

The new house...

well, time for an update.... new house is in the country, just over an hour out of the city.

we came up and camped in the new house on settlement night...much to the shock of the real estate agent who thought we were joking!

i mean, it does need some work, and the plumbing is dodgy but works, the bathroom has all the pipes exposed and the toilet is akin to sitting in an old shed.... any way, we stay and a friend loaded up the truck saturday night and delivered our furniture sunday morning, it was not a rest saturday though as the place resembled a rubbish tip.

GLTirebiter

Congratulations on the house, Oz! It sounds like you have enough projects to stay busy for quite a while. Enjoy the country living!

GLTirebiter

You are 15, you have been using online dating sites for "a year or two" meaning since you were 13 or 14 years old, and you are having intimate conversations with a man you've never met?

I presume that your parents do not know what you are up to. You should correct that situation. You said you had "sixth sense" and know things are OK. Your parents, like other adults, felt the same kind of confidence and trust at your age. Like other adults they are, no doubt, not so trusting now. That is called experience--listen to them, learn from their experience!

Gumbo Z' Herbes

Thank you, Syl!

Some of those greens are hard to come by here in the West--may have to order from the seed catalogs for next year! The real trick for me is "serves 12"--I'll have to scale back the recipe.

i have been reading this website for months now.

i am a born in who holds absolutely no animosity toward any witness.

i have had weeks and weeks of trouble trying to log in, but i'm here now.. long story short, i am one of 4 children who were raised as witnesses.

GLTirebiter

Welcome! You seem to have seen it all, drewcoul. I'm glad you made it out in one piece.

Please don't let the cacaphony of this bazaar overwhelm you--people with every sort of opinion, belief and personality come here, and most aren't coy about expressing themselves. Make yourself comfortable and join in!
