Mmm...Skittles...
^_^ Ever tried the Smoothie Flavoured ones? Those are Class A awesome.(with the A standing for awesome)

Jeanne better not have sold that little one or I'm gonna have to go steal another crestie from her!
It's a crested gecko for those who don't know. I'm a big animal person and have been into reptiles for about four years now. I've been trying to get a crestie but with health setbacks I wasn't able to. The next reptile show I can go to isn't until October and there is no guarantee I will find one or two that I really like where as if I can score this little guy/girl I know it's coming from a trusted breeder and I know it's history and bloodline.
Now if I can just keep the kitten from thinking it's her new play toy....
I love the red bag skittles. I lvoe Reese's Pieces even more though and the only thing I love more than those are 3 Muskateers(sp?)! :kitty:
We don't get those over here - just the Skittles. I love the sour ones, they're uber-yummy.
I have a case for mint skittles in my room, whatever happened to those?
'Mint' Skittles? Ugh. That's like having mint Polos or something.
This is really starting to annoy me. I've been trying to sneeze all morning and every time I think I'm going to nothing happens. Now it's a stuffy or runny nose every other minute it seems. Sneezing hurts like hell from this surgery but I'll take the pain if this would just go away.
I know the 'Am I going to sneeze oh no I'm not god damn this is just irritating' feeling, though thankfully I haven't had it for a while. Has it just been happening this morning, or is it a recurring problem?

Just started this morning. It's stopped for now.
This will probably sound weird... but go smell something acidic/citrisy (spelling)... ie: lemon/orange/etc. That might help clear the nose of what's irritating it.
I hate sneezing too much, I sneezed 3 times during dinner the other night because of stupid allergies.
The only time I've sneezed recently is because of my allergies. Dust mites are possibly one of the worst non-food things you can be allergic too. :sweat:
[Edit-o-vision] w00t! New page! :kitty:
^^It's only a new page for you. For me it's still page 18.
Oh ya. I forgot that everybody doesn't do the default page thingy for the forums. Meh. Still bites though about dust mites.
How many posts per page do you have?
Water wars at work are never a good idea if you had surgery in the past year.
Calvin and I were working late in produce and Jake was in the meat dept. Somehow those two started a water war and I joined in shortly after. An hour or so into it I knick his shirt with a bit of water and he finally gets me in the pants. I was ready to give up but had to try and get him one last time.
My idea didn't work out so well. I was walking out of the back room in the meat dept and saw Calvin run into the side door of the cooler and Jake opened the other door into the room as I was leaving so I doused him with the cup of water I had. Turns out I got his right side of his pants. Dump and run and I was moving as fast as I could and made it to my room with him right behind me. I slipped on some water because we were cleaning our floor. When I got up Jake decided to go and punch me in the stomach right below my chest. Few minutes later after I get my breath back and Calvin is ready to knock him out and he's yelling about how I just had surgery I saw my work in all it's glory. No more water wars for me and Jake kept asking if I was alright because I couldn't stand up straight for a while after the punch.

Produce-1 Meat-0
Casualties-Andrew took a punch to the stomach.
You're okay, I hope? :-/
Since we're telling stories...
Apparently, I have the unique ability to become invisible.
On Friday morning, I had to go to work. I take my vest and a red folder (Which I keep my check in when I get it.) and get in the car, stuff them in the back seat with me. My mom gets in the driver seat. She must drop off some books at the library first before she drops me off. It's a quick drop, I imagine. I notice that the windows are all foggy. I take one of the paper towels from the back seat and shout out to m'mum that I'll be right back, and I open the door and slam it closed behind me, and wipe off the front windshield, (Complete with my mom behind the wheel.) and then the back. I'm halfway finished with the rear windshield when the amazing happens.
She drives away without me.
She just drives away. Really. Seriously. I'd been left behind. I didn't move; She had driven the car right out from under my moist paper towel, leaving me hanging there, paper towel in hand, with my vest and folder in the back seat where I was very much not.
I RUN as fast as I possibly can to the corner around our oval-shaped block to intercept her as she turns around to get to the main intersection, but I barely miss her, watching her go out past the end of the block and around the corner. The paper towel droops in my hand, along with my arms to my sides. I stand under the nearest lamp post, lean against it, and wait. :-/
Damn, she was going fast. She must have been in a hurry to get me to work. 😉
I wait about one or two minutes. I'm still leaning against the lamp post with the paper towel in my hand when she swings back around. She's clearly laughing when I get in the car, sweeping aside my vest and folder to make space for my countenance. She told me that she was in such a hurry to get me to work that she only noticed that my vest was there, rather than my own physical presence, so she kept going. She was speaking to me quite a bit in the car about this and that, and when I hadn't replied at all, she just assumed that I had my earphones on and decided to leave me in peace, considering that I would not be able to get any peace at all within the next eight or so hours. So yeah, we went to the library, and dropped me off at work.
That was my Friday morning. Got quite the kick out of it.
Copypaste from Pure.
It sounds like a good idea though. My chem teacher would be laughing if I decided to do that before class.
I've got a new part-time job - three days a week, 5-11. In the morning. I'm trying to get my sleeping pattern in check so I wake up at around 04:00, but it's not easy. Especially when you're trying to sleep at 8 in the evening and it's still sunny out there. Not fun at all.
So yeah, that's this week for me.

You will get used to it eventually and when daylight savings rolls around it will throw you out of whack again.
I got a nice bruise on my hip from where I slipped and fell yesterday but nothing out of the usual. My chest and left side hurt more than usual but I'm guessing that's from the fall.
@ Biggiy: Ouch... Here's hoping you're fine now.
@ ST: 0_0 WTF FTW. She saw your vest, thinking you were there, and drove off, and when you weren't responding, she thought you were listening to music? ...XD. Must have sucked hardcore.
And now, I am back for my last year of college. In my first class, we got a questionaire, asking us what we knew, and I didn't know a single answer. -_- That and the freaking space bar on the keyboard is all screwy. And I didn't getmy second RPG demo done as I promised myself. -_- apologies to anyone who was expecting the demo.
On the plus side though, the Gaming club is already open. Yay CVC!
You started school already? That's too early, not fun.

My sister started last week sometime. Girlfriend started last Monday. I've still got a few weeks. That reminds me, I really should go buy my books because they aren't getting any cheaper.
Books are never cheap. BUT you can always try to get a copy used the semester before. Assuming the instructor is using the same book.

Medical books are expensive whether we buy them new or used. That's one of the down falls to my major.

I don't know how I missed that when I was looking at my electives a few weeks ago but that brings me up to 11.5 credits and I only need .5 more so they don't change my loan amount. Only problem is all the classes I can take relating to my major are on the same days and times.

^^I'm guessing that there are no seminar courses?

Say what?
Sorry, the only "true" college classes I'm taking are the core classes..math, English, speech, psych, etc.
Man, American classes are confusing. What you need is a good ol' fashioned degree in 'Ignorance Studies'.
And yes, that is a real course, sadly.

What's so hard about repelling down the side of your school building or parking garage? Just make sure your gear is on the right way and don't unhook your self.😃
