Spring Time!!
by It's almost spring and it's supposed to be in the fifties today! woohoo! I am wearing flip flops to work...I was freezing this morning..but..here's to hoping.
Additionally, being that it IS almost Spring..I believe the quote at the bottom of the page should not be about a snowflake.... :)
Loving the new page design...it's kittens. (Cute, soft & cuddly)

Ok, magnum, web-toed chloe and others. I think I fixed the bug that was making your logins not increase, and your names not show up in the New Message screen.
Let me know if your logins start increasing when you logout and login. And your names should appear in the New Message screen after your next login.

seriously must plan
It's so funny, Austin asks me prob once a week if there has been any arguments on eZabel lately. And I usually say yes. (He's addicted, through me) lol
what arguements on ezabel?
Go check out the Forums page under "General Chat" and "Thoughts" and you will see the childish arguments...
Oh...it's all good clean fun.
Your MOM is childish....OHHHHHHHHHHH. hahaha
Sticks and Stones!!
This is cute but, I think these people had a little too much time on their hands.
I love penguins.
hehe *pokes flomojopoanode* get outta here.
eggplant?
Yeah isn't it great like Egguins
or those tiny what i think those are?
what the heck is with the ads over there ------>
argh
yeah, they want to tell us about mandy moore.
what's wrong with "slim your thighs" ads? lol
I see London, I see France? Oh my.
I have an add for depends, probably has to do with the number of time the word crappy appears
I'M HOME. YAY!!!!!! pictures to come soon.
so how was everyone's memorial attendance? we had 270. and we have 130 publishers. NICE! It was packed. My brother-in-law and his fiance came. Yay! Jill tried to eat the bread, even though we told her not to. haha it was funny.
we had 188. I think we have about 105-110 publishers.
it was standing room only. about 30 brothers were standing in the lobby. soo many people i've never seen before.
I can't imagine that many people in your tiny hall.
Where did all the cars go?
ps - We had 177 (~92 publishers)
Yeah it was really packed. The cars were double parked, on the grass, etc. The brothers did a great job with the parking, actually.
And wow you guys had almost 100% increase.
ours was at a giant Marriott right off 80 near the GWB. I had the responsibility of the sound - using the hotel's sound system. It COMPLETELY crapped out several times during the talk and I was very embarrassed - because there was nothing I could do about it :(
I was bummed that my RV didn't come... But our attendance was very good. Also, Donovan laughed when we passed the wine back and forth because I whispered to him "Mmm, the wine smelled good" and he giggled when there was silence, which made people around us giggle. I really did think it smelled good, though. I wonder where one would get kosher wine...
whoa twins! ours was 273 and we have 131 publishers, but i hear they undercounted by accident.
i have a bug, i think in General Chat, Vacation Tours, when I click on it, it's blank.
hmm.. anybody else experience this?
yep same here
try logging out and in again. and try clearing your browser cache.
Are you guys still seeing a blank page?
Wow, slowing down the lyrics of My Humps really reminds me how crappy they are haha this is pretty funny
If my man was fighting
Some unholy war
I would be behind him
Straight shook up beside him
With strength he didn't know
It's you I'm fighting for
He can't lose with me in tow
I refuse to let him go
At his side and drunk on pride
We wait for the blow

Okay so just everyone was sharing at dinner and Cesar's nachos (con carne) looked and smelled yummy doesn't mean they were but....I took a picture
Mmmmmmmmmmmm picture a hem this means nothing.*drools*
Applebees. *wretches*
The only thing edible there is the quesadilla burger.

This totally made me want mexican for lunch. I picked up groceries at wegmans (they also do gourmet food prep there) and they had chicken and black bean quesedillas, so I got one. It was good, but after like 5 bites, my taste for mexican was over. I stuffed the leftovers in my fridge and grabbed an apple. :P
ewww that doesnt look right...sorry chica
wait a second
all mexican food is made of up the same stuff:
nachos/tortillas
cheese
beans
beef/chicken
guacamole
salsa
sour cream
rice
lettuce
pico de gallo
peppers
and those are all optional.
so, basically, if you throw those ingredients together in any fashion you will get something that tastes delicious. there is no way that you can say "ewww that doesnt look right". it's all the same stuff!
it can be the wrong beans, the wrong cheese, stale chips...theres much that can go wrong. beleive me, take it from a mexican...LOL
besides the ones in the pic look like someone chewed it up and spit it back on the plate. lol
oh and you never put rice or lettuce in nachos lol
Ooooooooo see this, you learn something new everyday. Yeah the lettuce makes it soggy eventually I guess. Never thought about it before 'cause I'm a human vacuum, basically.
ive never had lettuce in my nachos. if there is lettuce then its a tostada. lol
if you've eaten rice or lettuce in your mexican food, you might have gotten sick at Taco Bell
and those are all optional.
In general yeah, but a simple change from one pepper to another change's the dish completely.
That's like saying most italian food is sauce, sauce, and more sauce, with some pasta and cheese.
Someone beat me with a crowbar please.... Haha
sad story of the day
i had a dream about my cat that died.. and in the dream i didn't know she died. i was holding her and I was like "hey how come you don't sleep with us anymore, are you afraid of the doggie?"
heh that sucked.. when i woke up.. and remembered the draem
last week of workkkkkk yayyyyy
i'm bored
So who's excited about a friend/call/family member coming to the Memorial tonight?
Donovan and I call on this older man who's been really receptive, but whom we haven't convinced to come to a meeting yet. When we saw him yesterday, we gave him the leaflet, read the appendix in the BT book to him, and asked if he would try to come. He said he'd try, and he 'might bring a lady, too.' We chuckled at that (the guy is like 75 and cute in that old person way) and we're really hopeful that he'll come tonight. He's actually the first call either of us have ever had that said he might come, not in that 'I'll humor you to get you out of my house' way. :)
I invited a young woman I have been witnessing to. She seems to enjoy reading the publications and I had her read Matthew 5 & 6 as a homework assignment. She liked it so much, she read the entire book of Matthew! She said she would try to make it tonight. So that was very encouraging for me. She told me she appreciated me for showing her a new path in life. So hopefully it'll turn into a bible study that I can turn over to a sister.
That attorney I was in a battle of wills with brought in a whole container of homemade cookies for me this morning. I helped her out with a project on Friday that necessitated me staying in the office until like 6:00; I didn't mind bcz Donovan was out anyway. Suffice it to say, though, she and I are cool now. The girly manipulation has yielded cookies!
GOOD JOB! cookies are always accepted! lol
So on Mondays, I work at a place (connected to my office) called the Nurse Call Center. It's a bunch of RN's taking phone calls and evaluating symptoms and making DR. appointments if necessary. I'm not a nurse, but I just take the overflow of calls...take messages and the nurses call them back, so they don't have to wait on hold.
So I've heard some PRETTY nasty messages, people graphically describing the color of their poo...I got a call that this girl's friend set her leg on fire...pretty crazy stuff..but the one this morning was so upsetting.
This women calls up...she was 32..and she's like..I think I'm pregnant...and I can't be..I want to schedule an appointment to get rid of it..and get fixed at the same time...just so...non-challant.
My heart dropped, abortion is such a terrible, disgusting thing. And it seems even worse that the women has other children, and just doesn't have "time" for one more.
Maybe she should be taking precautions NOT to get pregnant. "No natural affection"....ugh.
This whole gmail to actual mail service is such a bizarre idea.
Perhaps for small businesses it will come in handy. Having physical copies (verified originals) legally might be a useful reinforcement...otherwise I don't understand the purpose.
Oh, poor Livy..
look at today's date :P
what? awww I don't know what you mean...I get confused. Leave me alone before I tell Mikayla =P

Guys I'm so extrememly homesick right now. Someone comfort me. HaHa.
no more rice or noodles, and i'm tired of having to squat to poop and i think i have SARS.
Where the heck are you? Ethiopia? LOL!

SEE. squat to poop.
"The first word that springs to my mind when I think of being a mother, is 'trapped'"
http://www.guardian.co.uk/gender/story/0,,2036679,00.html
good article
i think the point of the article was she felt trapped not by her children but by her husband though
to me the point of the article was that women that don't want children still feel really bad about it and feel alienated from society and are made to feel like something is wrong with them
Ah, I am the man... I get a nice laptop from work and now I get internet services at home paid by the company. Maybe I should dismiss the idea of moving away.
hooked up! how'd you justify it?
The same way I justified the laptop. Some days I need to be home for the kids, if they get sick or whatever. Plus I am the only person they have in my division of the company that does the mechanical design work and drawings. So it's a win/win situation for everyone.
So now I can log into work from home.
way to go man! next step: work from home every day AND a raise!
Over the next 2 weeks I get to work 3 days from home. Monday I have a conference with Emily's teacher in the afternoon, then the week after they have Spring Break. So I got my boss to let me work 2 days from home that week. I've proven I am good at what I do. I'm always fixing past mistakes made by others and making things more efficient. They think I am awesome. Haha... The last 2 companies I worked for were not appreciative of anything.
ok so this is kinda sad but im evil and laughed so hard
urrrbody in the shrub gettin' tipsy!
how far are you from LA..
i'm going back to to cali to babysit some kids for a day or two.
Maybe you can take me out to dinner and pay for some drinks too
i'm starting to think you're an assassin and you blow in and out of town assassinating people.

depending on traffic....im 20 mins. but with traffic it could be up to an hour plus. when are you coming out? theres a lot going on next month maybe you can venture out this way and hang with my group and i?
Not so much sad as hysterical.
Anyone see that Sad Kermit thing? So sad.
I KNEW IT!!!
my cat did not die, she was kidnapped, and they put her in a Beyonce video!! DANG!
My first inclination was to want to flick a spoonful of acid on beyonce, but upon further consideration-- the video is silly and tongue-in-cheek enough for me to chuckle and not be completely appalled. Munchkin R.I.P.
so i told my job i'm not staying any longer than next week.. too much going on lol
and i was asked if i can train a new temp next week "if i'm done with other stuff they have me working on"
little do they know, i haven't had ANYTHING to work on for weeks
I've been Diggin, Myspacin, Ezablin, Yahoo Mailin.. Perez Hiltonin...

yeah the other day i unscrewed all the doorhandles! (haha)
You need a meeting with the Bob's. Haha
anyone here ever added a graphics card to a dell laptop after purchasing?
I found a sweet deal on an inspiron with core 2 duo, 2 gig ram, 160GB HD, Vista Premium, only it has a graphics card that shares RAM.
I'd like to buy an after market card and install it ... is that possible?
not gonna happen. you'd have to replace the entire motherboard.
shared RAM isn't that bad on a laptop, especially if you're not worried about games.
yeah i'd like to play a game or two, have some fun, ya know?
i'm all done! check out the finished "Dick." it's in the journals.
OMG OMG EZABEL PORN!!!
niiiiiiice
nice img tag there, HTML Genius

I was all " What? they make thighs?
HOT
I went to click and by come costume thighs.. but... only t-shirts were available.

awwww that poor kid is probably one of their sweatshop workers :(
best moment of the day
woman coming into your small office\server room after they go on their smoking break and talking to you for 20 min and then leaving and you still smell like a cigarette butt.
dude at least you smell like a different kind of butt then normal, changes it up a bit
Hahahaha....
One of my clients named her son "Ryan", but she spells it "Rian". That kid is soooooooooooooo going to be made fun of his entire life.
Por qua? Too close to the feminine Rían?
Yuppers.
Not as badly as I torment you on here! Hahahaha
soooo my job just asked me to stay longer lol
$$$$$
yeah but I'll die. haha. I'm gonna say no.
it's getting really busy now and unless i can work part time, i'm not workin two jobs.
and they want me to take the receptionist position which cannot be part time
sooo.. bye byez
so my mom's getting to that "elderly" lady, losing hearing stage. last night we got to the hall a few minutes late so we sat in the library. anyway the hall was filled so they started seating some in the library.
anyway after the usual announcements they announced a sister being reproved. my mom leans in, thinking she's whispering says loud "WHOS THAT? IS SHE NEW?" and the poor sister was sitting a few rows ahead. Im like "MOM!!!" and shot her this look. so i had to write her a note and i told her after meeting to not "whisper" anymore and to write me a note instead. LOL
Awww poor Sister Corona.
You know, I knew this was your last name G but hearing it with "Sister" bfore it makes it sound so cool!
heehee thanks. its funny cause w/in the past week a few peeps thought that the reason my friends call me "corona" was cause i had this obsession with beer. HAHAHA my friends are like "um gina HATES beer"
i'm not sure if anyone cares, but have some free movie tickets to "the peaceful warrior" this weekend on me
http://www.thepeacefulwarriormovie.com/ (top left corner, through Best Buy)
enjoy
if you are offended by something you see in the movie, don't blame me, thanks
oops try this link instead
It's "sold out" in my area. but can it really be "sold out" if no selling was involved?
so, we have hired a Pup-P-Doo crew. They come once a week and pick up your dog's poo. haha, NICE! They also do Kit-T-Doo...but i think i can at least scoop a litter box.
ha nice!! i work for Fetch Pet care we come and walk the doggy when you're at work or away! i love it. I look forward to doing more of that this summer too it's fun :)
Annnnnnnd i refuse to have a poopy yard, we pick up the poop every time.
there's nothing weirder than running into one of your past proffessors in the bathroom. because even if you're excited to see them it'd just weird cuz you're in the bathroom. same thing applies at the kingdom hall. i hate it when people try to talk to you when you wlak in there during the meeting.
so i quit my job today. yay for wedding season.
Awww...
My boss just called me and said he bought me the new Apple phone... i got all excited but i still was slightly suspicious...
yeah... then he called me back and said he was lying.
sad panda.
I want one.
best part about having a dog - instant running partner
happy with your dog choice?

Last night I kept calling my cat Jazzy Winehouse
Jazzy Winehouse
my cats name is Jazzy
Sorry I luv you but, when I saw this I thought it said "My cat's name is Jezzy." made me think back to a conversation I had recently about people not knowing the history of certain names. Some woman had named her daughter Jezabel, I mean REALLY? Jezabel??? Did ya even blink when you signed that birth certificate?
Winehouse is self-destructing at an alarming rate, she worries me :(
soooooooooo this weekend at the assembly.. this one brother kept saying opticals instead of obstacles
oh man
he even said it in a prayer....
i felt bad but i made fun of that bigtime later on
i took my glasses off and was making them go closer and closer to chris and said oh noooooooo look out for the opticals!!!
i'm gonna be smited i know it
smited is not the right word for it either
like struck down by lightning is what i meant
You're second in line for the lightning blast. Haha...
One of the brothers at our meeting last night read a scripture as, "'Christ gave his soul as a ransom in exchange for money', er, er, many." I snickered a little (we were in the 3rd row), then the sister next to me snickered, then the sister across the aisle laughed. Good stuff.
there's also a brother in my hall who kind of mumbles and there's this ongoing joke that no one can understand what he says and it just sounds like "mumblemumblemumble sandwich mumblemumblemumble"
hahaha
We have a brother from Cameroon, where they speak French, and his accent was really thick a few years ago, when he first moved here, but it's much better now. Still, all the older sisters in the hall giggle and say they can't understand him. They say they just smile when he talks, trying to follow along. :P
Awww so cute! Growing up my friend Tessa's father was from Cameroon...
I remember that when the Lion King came out we were like "OMG asked Tessa's dad what they're singing... 'cause HE'S AFRICAN!"
=)
now, i'm not TRYING to go there, but there is a very real account of a brother talking about the giant squid and instead of saying tentacles, he said testicles from the platform at a convention.
you always crack me up Valentine ;)
sounds like testicles crcked you up this time...
