yuck! Hoping that this doesn't last too long for you!

[jesgear]

I've had a few friends ask to use me for a reference for their job search or to review their resumes. This economy is depressing.

[Asha]

I can't seem to focus at work so far this week! hahaaa!

Ditto!

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

people who don't talk to me cos they think they're better than me

[MaccaGirl2891]

Giving up on boys.

[coolbeanie]

[hibgal]

people who don't talk to me cos they think they're better than me

Let's have GG kick them! :devil7:

[MaccaGirl2891]

[MaccaGirl2891]

I feel cold and nauseous, so I'm going to go to bed. I hate feeling sick.

My brother in law was diagnosed with MS today. He is very scared, and he lives across the country from all of us, so he is alone.

[beatlebangs1964]

I'll keep him in my prayers, Luvr.

[ilianna]

Maybe him and I actually don't have anything in common anymore. I barely know him now. She's changed him or at least she has something to do with it. :furious:

[ilianna]

Giving up on boys.


Me too, for now haha.

[VersusBatman]

That's too bad.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear this. I'll send out a prayer for him.

[MaccaGirl2891]

I have the stomach virus. I was up for 7 hours with it this morning from 12:30 to 7:30. So now i'm in bed and can't enjoy my snow day. This is not fun. I'm gonna try and sleep some more.

[mari]

I don't know why nobody told you how to unfold your love.

[ilianna]

I don't know why nobody told you how to unfold your love.

That is my favorite line right now. :(

[oldbeatlechick]

Very disillusioned with work!

[Magill]

Me too, obc! :cross2:

[Georgie Girl]

Let's have GG kick them! :devil7:

Can GG kick everybody for me?? Haha!

For a small fee! :teeth1:

[Georgie Girl]

My brother in law was diagnosed with MS today. He is very scared, and he lives across the country from all of us, so he is alone.Oh, no, poor guy. Is this Chris's brother?

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

For a small fee! :teeth1:

how much is that? a hundred dollars?

[Mccartneyluvr]

Oh, no, poor guy. Is this Chris's brother?

Yes. He is 33 unmarried and has no kids. He is all alone.

[Esmirelda]

I think I caught a cold.

[Magill]

I think I caught a cold.

So, throw it back.

*rimshot*

[twovirgins]

[Esmirelda]

So, throw it back.

*rimshot*

Good one. :laugh5:

I think I'd rather throw it out.

[sourmilkpinky]

Ear & sinus infection and doctors.

[Georgie Girl]

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

my mom lied to me again.

[MaccaGirl2891]

Still sick, but not puking, which is good.

I might not be able to sing my solo at contest on Saturday. I haven't looked at it really and since I'm sick, I don't know. It hurts when I talk or laugh because of the muscles I had to use early Wednesday morning for 7 hours.

I really want to sing since it's my last year...but I got sick the first year I was supposed to do one, I got sick.

[Georgie Girl]

I should be asleep right now. :afraid2:

Don't sweat your contest, just get better, MG!

*gets can of Lysol to disinfect thread* :wink3:

[hibgal]

Haha, I didn't even realize that I repeated myself in the last thread. That's funny.


I have homework that's due tomorrow...

Being spoken to in a condescending manner by service department managers at garages because you are female!

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

The school bus backed into a telephone pole. Unfortunately, I was sitting in the very back.

[Rellevart]

Dear American Airlines,

Thank you SO much for informing me that I can fly to England for $330 right now, but when I needed to go last summer, you soaked me for almost $1300. Really. Thank you.

Love,

The picture window is leaking water on our carpet, because of all the ice dams on our roof. And we can't do anything about it 'til spring.

[hibgal]

Getting buckets for Les.

Same here. The ice is melting under the shingles and through our ceiling and windows. It's soooo annoying! :angry1:

[VersusBatman]

There is possible lay-offs at my husbands work.

[beatlelover45223]

I do hope it doesn't effect your hubby VB but am so sorry for any who are effected!

[VersusBatman]

My husband is applying at other places just in case. Whatever the outcome, I hope he has a job.

[Georgie Girl]

I do too. I'm sure with his tech skills he shouldn't have too much trouble.
The economy won't always be this bad, it'll turn around again. It always does.

I do think a lot of companies that are doing okay are using the economy
as an excuse to cut hours and lay off employees. Not great for the
economy to have less and less money circulating.

[jesgear]

I caught a bad cold last night. Hardly slept overnight, and my head is so stuffed. I felt a little better after that first dose of cold medicine, but this second dose doesn't seem to be working.

Yeah, they're cutting out muscle instead of fat.

[beatlelover45223]

Snow and Ice brought down the awning over my back door, along with a piece of the siding, busted out a window, hit the outside electrical box, landed on my plant bench and hit a chair that was still outside, will have to wait for the a melt to see if it cracked any of the decorative bricks on the patio, lots of loose gutters courtesy of the snow and ice, hope they will stay put till spring! :cross2: Have the adjuster and someone to look at putting back up the siding and fixing the window this week, if it does not snow all week?

[Mccartneyluvr]

I'm sick too. My throat feels like I've been eating razor blades.

[oldbeatlechick]

Got to go into work for half an hour even though it's my day off (I offered :rolleyes:), why did we tell that chap he could have an interview this morning? :nono3:

[oldbeatlechick]

Driving is not safe at the moment!

[Lucy]

Spent the weekend sick in bed but then had to walk through the snow to get to work today since no buses are running. Not good!!!!

[oldbeatlechick]

Awww Lucy, I hope you feel better today, going to work in the snow! ((hugs))

[Esmirelda]

Its Tax season.....
Ewwww....

[MaccaGirl2891]

My abs still hurt from puking almost a week ago. It's annoying!

[Georgie Girl]

Dang, I hope all you sick people get better soon! :afraid2:

And keep your germs to yourselves! :devil7:
*sprays Lysol again*

[MaccaGirl2891]

Hey!! I'm all better now!

[Georgie Girl]

Hey!! I'm all better now!
Yes, but YOU started all the contamination! :laugh5:

J/K, glad you're feeling human again!

[VersusBatman]

My medication is making me drowsy and nauseous.

[Mccartneyluvr]

My medication is making me drowsy and nauseous.

Oh, sorry VB. Hopefully you get your kids to sleep so you can lay down soon.

[beatlelover45223]

Driving is not safe at the moment!

OBC, if your car is an automatic, put it in a lower gear, 1st gear - you won't go any faster than 20mph, even downhill, 2nd gear - no faster than 25-30mph, it helps you keep control of the car, no jumps starts coming off the stop lights! No hard braking, slow easy breaking!
Snow is way easier to drive in than ice, feel blessed it's snow for now, we had 10-12" of snow and ice just last week and 6" of ice is still on the ground, we got down to -2 below 0 just 2 days ago and all that snow and ice, became ice...

[VersusBatman]

Oh, sorry VB. Hopefully you get your kids to sleep so you can lay down soon.
I'm going to turn in early. I hope the side effects don't last long. It gave me a bit of the runs too.

[Esmirelda]

On my way home yesterday, a guy in a big pickup truck was driving dangerously.

[HoneyPie]

You guys have infected me with your germs... :sad3:

[MaccaGirl2891]

I almost did a 360 turning into the school parking lot and a cop almost hit me and he didn't stop.

[Rellevart]

Would it be hypocritical for me to whine about how sick I am of listening to people around here (where I'm physically at, not Links) whine??

[oldbeatlechick]

Would it be hypocritical for me to whine about how sick I am of listening to people around here (where I'm physically at, not Links) whine??

Not at all if it helps, feel free Rell!

[PaulisMine]

Naw, Rell, it's like how I look down on people that look down on people.

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

Irritant was school canceled today. You can only play games so long before getting bored.

[jesgear]

Dang, I hope all you sick people get better soon! :afraid2:

And keep your germs to yourselves! :devil7:
*sprays Lysol again*

Looks like GG needs a hug; c'mon fellow sickies, group hug around GG!

[beatlelover45223]

8 more inches of snow(it fell in 4 hours), on top of about 10-11, that had melted down to 6 by this morning from last week, I wonder if I am ever going to get my broken window fixed,never mind the rest of the damage from the ice and snow of last week/just to my house(there are 1000's still in W Kentucky without power since last Tues :afraid2:), temps down to 10F tonight, 22F high Wed; and lows down in the single digits overnight Thurs......

Yes, bring a costume to the fest--a John-and-Yoko were there when I went!

[mari]

Polly PamPam.


Hey if I ever have to work as a stripper that'll be my stage name.

[beatlebangs1964]

Slow drivers tying up traffic really irritate me.

I hate the word "scrunch" in any form and I think it is vile and stupid.

Ouch! At least it's outta that mouth. Getting a tooth pulled is not fun.:cry3:

[beatlebangs1964]

That looks like a wisdom tooth. Bummer about the extraction - that is definitely NOT fun. Ouch!

[MaccaGirl2891]

I had all four of my wisdom teeth cut out. The stitches in my mouth were not fun at all. And that was how I spent the majority of my spring break.

I have the teeth, and they're ginormous!! That's a huge tooth, Aimee, and I'm glad that's out of your mouth!

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

It wasn't a wisdom tooth, although it was way in the back. I can feel a wisdom tooth coming in now, though.

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

cAPS lOCK IS A VERY ANNOYING AND VERY UNNECCESARY KEY. i WONDER WHY THEY EVEN ADD IT TO THE KEYBOARD ANYMORE. oN THE cOMMODORE 64 IT WAS CALLED "sHIFT lOCK."

[Esmirelda]

That reminds me. I need to go to the dentist. I've had 6 (yes, 6) wisdom teeth pulled already..... Now I have another mutant, mini tooth coming in. They wanna dig that one out too.

Since when is rain naughty? :thinker:

I can't stand Dizzy Miss Lizzy on the View. She gets on every one of my nerves!

I'm no fan of Billo or Flush Limberger either.

Y'know, people who dis people with autism and who call people with autism the R word really piss me off. :angry1: :thumbd:

Aww that's a shame Jaye, but I'm sure your party went well anyway! :teeth1:

I have my ironing to do later, I think I may watch AHDN while I'm at it! :wink2:

[beatlebangs1964]

I hate the smell of mothballs and I can't stand the stench of talcum powder.

I also don't enjoy vacuuming.

I hate piles and can't stand clutter, so that always impels me to keep a neat house. No piles for me, and no clutter either!

[jesgear]

My computer's virus-scan program's been running since noon; it's after 7PM now, and the program's still not finished (fortunately, the running statistics show no viruses found so far).

[Mccartneyluvr]

I can't believe they made the first one. Peter Sellers did an amazing job in the original. I hate remakes of movies. I can't think of ANY remake that has been as good as the original.

[Esmirelda]

How about this one?

My baby cousin Caiden has taken a turn for the worse. He was going to be transported from St. Louis to the children's hospital in Indianapolis, one of the best children's hospitals in the country but they have had to hold off. He has a staph infection, which was why he was going to be transported up here, but he has some fluid in his stomach and he's having emergency exploratory surgery either right now or later today. I really want him to make it -- he deserves to have the best life, considering what he's gone through these past few months. He weighs 5.2 pounds, but the doctors think that most of it is fluid.
He was the baby that was born in December but he was due in March.

[Lynner]

Prayers and good wishes to your little cousin, Jaye. Please keep us posted.

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

I was googling something and I found "freeware at a great price!"

....wtf?

[beatlebangs1964]

I'll keep Caiden in my prayers.

My MI - people who dis people with autism really piss me off. :thumbd:

If somebody neurotypical is proficient at something, they are recognized as having talents. If someone on the spectrum shows proficiency, it is called a splinter skill and the S word (savant) is often applied. LESS THAN 10% of people with autism ARE prodigious savants, so it is very ironic that this has become the stereotype.

Talents for the NT population and splinter skills for people on the spectrum - that is a damn double standard. :angry1:

[Lucy]

I ran into someone from my past tonight. and he made me feel really awful about myself....even though what he said to me was total rubbish, for some reason it REALLY got to me. Loser.

[MaccaGirl2891]

Caiden had a lot of fluid removed from his lungs. He also had 75% of his colon removed (he's had a lot of bowel problems). The prognosis is not very good. :sad1:

I'm trying to stay optimistic. I want him to pull through...

What a jerk he must be to say something bad to you after
not seeing you for a long time. He certainly belongs in the
past and not your present. :thumbd:

[Georgie Girl]

Caiden had a lot of fluid removed from his lungs. He also had 75% of his colon removed (he's had a lot of bowel problems). The prognosis is not very good. :sad1:

I'm trying to stay optimistic. I want him to pull through...
Oh, no, poor little kid. Well, maybe if they can just get him past
this difficult time, things will turn around for him, especially when
he gets to Indianapolis. Babies often make amazing recoveries,
so hang in there, MG.

[Georgie Girl]

One of the Ronettes has died. :sad2:

[beatlelover45223]

Jaye, Caiden is in my prayers!

[beatlelover45223]

RIP Estelle (Ronettes)

[MaccaGirl2891]

I have an update on Caiden, but it's in MNIs.

[oldbeatlechick]

Back of my legs ache from all the climbing over rocks on the cliffs!

[Esmirelda]

Sounds like you got a good work out, OBC.

My MI: We have to work all this Valentines weekend. Hubby works during the days and I'm working nights.

[mari]

Been at work all day and now I hurt all over and I'm too exhausted to go out and do something.

[MaccaGirl2891]

Valentine's Day:
A day to remind singles everywhere that they have no one.

Valentine's Day:

Only if you spend it sitting around feeling sorry for yourself. Go do something fun with your other single (or taken, but who don't bother to celebrate) friends.

I'm worried my HDD is starting its way out...

Gotta back up my data. You gotta love portable, external HDDs!!! Even if I have to pull the tower out to get to a port in the back.

Lucy you know you are worth so much more than the jerk from your past, now you know why he is in the past!

I just caught up with this Jaye, poor little mite, my thoughts are with him and your family at this time. I did see you posted in the MNI's now too!

So true. We were having a quick bite at a local eatery last night and were entertained by a group of college girls having fun and laughs together. There were no boys there. They were just enjoying each other's company. It made me smile and remember the days of my youth. :smile1:

[Magill]

Lucy you know you are worth so much more than the jerk from your past, now you know why he is in the past!


So, SOOOO true, obc! Hey, I hope you flipped him the bird, Lucy! :laugh5:

[Esmirelda]

No time to do laundry...I'm running out of clothes!

[Mccartneyluvr]

I haven't talked to Jes in a while.

[mari]

I'm in here all alone..

[beatlebangs1964]

I think it sounds stupid to say one is "scrapbooking" or "antiquing." I think making those words into verbs just sounds stupid.

Why not say you're making a scrapbook or working on one or buying antiques or whatever it is you are doing that includes antiques instead?

I also hate bastardized speech. President Harding couldn't get the word "normalacy" out quite right, so he corrupted it to its bastardized form of "normalcy," which never sounded right to me.

I hate the expression "go/went missing" because that is not grammatically correct.

[beatlebangs1964]

my mom lied to me again.

Aimee, I've been doing a little homework. It's time to dance or get off the stage. We can lead a dark horse to water, but we can't make her drink. YOU have to take that step. All we can do is support you and provide you with information. You have asked for help, so I am going to provide you with a list of people who CAN help you and agencies you CAN trust. Here they are:

My laptop is dead! I haven't been on here in so long and I miss it! I don't know when it will get fixed.

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

My laptop is dead! I haven't been on here in so long and I miss it! I don't know when it will get fixed.

What happens? Does it get to the BIOS or not start up at all?

Did you try replacing the battery?

[coolbeanie]

Don't ever eat sugar free chocolate.

[Esmirelda]

My feet are cold. Anyone have some slippers I can wear?

[jesgear]

Here you go, Esme:

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

i realize that video files tend to be large, but 15 gigabytes for a 10-minute video is a little overboard.

[MaccaGirl2891]

Sugar free chocolate = NOT chocolate!!

Reduced sugar Froot Loops don't really taste the best either...

[Georgie Girl]

Don't ever eat sugar free chocolate.
Well, not too much, too much! :music2:

[Esmirelda]

Thanx Jes....
They are very tasteful. :laugh5:
I don't think these 'slippers' are my size though.

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

I have a low thyroid, whatever that means.

[ilianna]

What happens? Does it get to the BIOS or not start up at all?

Did you try replacing the battery?

Well, I turn it on and it sounds like it's trying to starti but then it shuts off and turns on again and shuts off. It does that over and over. The screen is black the whole time. We haven't done anything because money is tight.

It sounds like a dead or dying mobo. If it stayed on, I'd suspect a shot LCD, but the constant reboots. If it was the power supply, likely it wouldn't turn on at all (might be a good idea to switch batteries though).

Are there any beeps?

If you shake it (carefully), can you hear any loose parts?

http://www.laptoprepair101.com/laptop/2008/06/14/laptop-dead-troubleshoot-the-problem/

p.s. Be very careful with laptops. you have to be trained properly to replace parts, vs. desktops which someone can replace the parts pretty easy. This is why I prefer laptops.

If you know what you're doing (and it's not under warranty), remove the HDD so you can pull your files off it. Unfortunatly, if it is a dead mobo, you can't just pop it into another computer. If you reinstall Windows, you can reuse it though.

[hibgal]

Ilianna, can you boot from the boot disc? Try that first.

[PaulisMine]

I'm the only person at work required to bring a doctors note if I miss work, and EVERYONE ELSE I WORK WITH CALLS IN CONSTANTLY.
I feel angry that I am being singled out, I did actually have a good excuse for missing work.

Oka, I'll try doing that. Does that mean if it is dead all my files are gone? It's not under warranty anymore :/

Ilianna, can you boot from the boot disc? Try that first.

Yeah I tried that but it kept restarting before it got the chance to load.

[hibgal]

If the harddrive is unharmed it can be extracted and the files recovered. NOT if you reformat it though.

Yeah, try the battery first like Aimee suggested.

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

If you remove the HDD and either connect it as a slave drive to another computer or get one of those cases to make it external, you can salvage the files.

I'd recommend whichever one you'll feel more comfortable with.

I didn't recommend a boot disc because if you can't get into the BIOS, it's kinda difficult to boot from a CD.

With a dead mobo, you'd have to replace the motherboard (and possibly some other hardware, if you use a different model) and reinstall Windows. I don't know about laptops, but with a desktop a mobo isn't that expensive.

Replacing a mobo is basically the same as buying a new computer, except you already have some parts. Of course, check to see if the cost of replacing the thing is cheaper than taking into a shop.

[Georgie Girl]

I'm the only person at work required to bring a doctors note if I miss work, and EVERYONE ELSE I WORK WITH CALLS IN CONSTANTLY.
I feel angry that I am being singled out, I did actually have a good excuse for missing work.I would want to complain to someone over your boss's head. What goes for one should go for all.

That is so unfair, it's not as if you WANTED to have all that time off! I agree with GG, go over your immediate boss if necessary to get it sorted out!

[MaccaGirl2891]

I hate having a cold.

[VersusBatman]

I know how you feel. I have the flu.

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

my keyboard tray crashed down. it didn't hit me though!

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

people being mean for no reason. especially when they're supposed to be your "friends"

they say its my fault 'cos i'm annoying. does being annoying mean they can be plain mean?

seems to make me tired all over again.

[MaccaGirl2891]

I HATE it when my best friend and some other people I know say, "I know, right?" ALL THE FREAKING TIME!!!!!!

Some people are just plain bastards. Simple as that.

Since it is the neurotypicals who make all the social rules, then perhaps they should explain some of these Tacit Social Codes & Rules. If they want the Aspie team to play, then I think they should explain their rules and the rationale for them. Simple as that.

[beatlebangs1964]

Don't ever eat sugar free chocolate.

I know two women who say sugar free chocolate makes them fart.

It can cause flatulence issues, I am told.

[hibgal]

Answer: No. How another person behaves is never an excuse for how you behave. Being mean is never an option.

People saying that I'm using my hypothyroidism as an excuse to be "fat and lazy."

I wish they'd have one day like what I went through. Then they'd know shit I wasn't joking.

I shouldn't let it get to me, though...

[Mccartneyluvr]

Last night my son threw up. This morning I threw up. Well, at least he's learned to share.

[Magill]

Ummm...it's good to hear that everyone's bodily functions are working properly. :afraid2:

HA! Magill!

My eyes are aching and feel sore!

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

I finally got to run a corrupted image scanning thing through -- I lost 87 pictures.

That's not too bad, though, I've got 14336 images. And the ones I lost aren't too hard to replace.

[Lucy]

i was so busy at work today i didn't have time to eat ALL DAY....no breakfast, no lunch, nothing....then I came home before and went out and FED MY FACE so now I feel sick and bloated!

Very early start tomorrow - alarm set for 4.30am. Planes to catch, places to be, people to see.

[MaccaGirl2891]

My mom's been sick, so when my dad was out of town, I was taking care of her. Now that my dad's back, I don't have to do it by myself.

Just heard of a friends passing from my son, it was the mother of the friend he was Best Man for back in September. My heart goes out to her husband and son.

[The New AimeeAndBeatles]

I was trying to plug in something and I was under the computer desk and I banged my head. LOL.

And I have a sore throat. Dunno if its the new meds, or the flu that's going around. Maybe both.

[coolbeanie]
