In the Modest Mouse, Franz Ferdinand family...Killers. Hot Fuss is the album. I can not stop listening to it...especially the song "All These Things That I've Done." GET IT!! NOW!!!!
Zemat, I work in a gossipy, scandalous office environment with 80% women and I've heard on separate occasions (from the women themselves) of women dumping the really nice guy who treated them really well because he just wasn't equipped to satisfy. I half feel bad for those guys, but I guess sexual satisfaction is also part of a relationship...I'm not sure where I stand on that cause it's not something I've had to deal with.
thanks surlyboi! i haven't even been around the monkey to know i was being threatened!! by the way, do you have more embarrassing photos of me?
hehe. okay. more mystery and a chance to use my super limited html. scary stuff.
i just like to eat umeboshi and no one else had the name. they're cute, round, sour and salty. kind of like me minus the round part. i'm more pocky-like.
(i'm usually an 8...8rain, pixie8...but i started to see 8's around a little bit more lately. i am also an 8/8, but 1974..and i am pretty sure i wasn't an 8 lb baby.)
Not being facetious, but is it possible for two people to remain sexually attracted to one another after so many years of life's ups and downs and daily irritations?
Northern. (flyover country as surlyboi likes to say. office of the governator? home of the choking basketball team?)
I've totally observed this in SoCal though: "it's also unfortunately common for an entire freeway to have all four lanes in the same direction moving at much the same (under-the-limit) speed" driving from SD to Pasadena. ARGH. Haven't seen that phenomenon much up here. The speed limit feels like under the speed limit here.
The speed was what was so new to me. It's not scary driving in NYC cause it's almost impossible to go past 65 mph...or 25 on the BQE during rush hour.
Rocket88---The cargo space on 18-wheelers is probably needed to carry whatever they are carrying. Most SUVs are for simply for show. I don't think you can compare the two. Of course, there are those that may need an SUV, but that is not the case for the majority of SUV owners out there. Your ordinary driver has a choice of which vehicle to drive.
You have to admit an aggressive driver in an SUV coming up from behind is a little more intimidating than one in a Honda Civic. No less annoying though.
Path--I do not know what a gun rack looks like, but I must learn to identify them now that I am in California!
Surlyboi, thanks for the kind words! Heh.
Not really on topic, but regarding the bad driver thing...When I lived in NYC, I knew I had to beware the Jeep Cherokee with Jersey plates. Always.
coming from an Asian female driver, no less...
sit in front of my computer reading all sorts of news, play ultimate frisbee and draw. i would hike and do more outdoor things if i could find people to do them with.
