[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]For the earliest part of my life my mom stayed at home and did part time jobs because that's what the whole stu\ipulation of adopting children said. But I've had a few interesting people watch my brother and I when we were younger. Here are two of the most memorable. The summer I was going on eight and my brother was going to be five we had this one babysitter who had three kids of her own. They got away with murder (the two year old used to bite me and I'd get in trouble for it.) She once told us there wasn't any milk for breakfast and sent my brother and I outside and then fed her kids. :animeangr And she was a real well you know when it came to extended time outs. This was before someone figured out that you shouldn't give kids a time out longer than their age in minutes. She'd have us (sometimes one of her kids, but mainly my brother and I) stand in the corner for like twenty minutes or lay down for the same amount of time. And don't even get me started on the horror movies and soap operas that were on instead of kid's shows. The other one we had seemed just fine at first. It was the summer that my brother was turning eight and I was turning eleven. My parents interviewed this woman, she had a daughter and wanted to be able to bring her. They said fine. And from June to the beginning of July things seemed fine, but then she started to come later and later. Then she just stopped coming all together and I ended up having to watch my brother! That was so not cool. My brother and I also like to tell people that we got kicked out of day camp one year. That's not completely true. Yes sometimes there were problems, but my mom actually pulled us out of a day camp because the conselors didn't keep a good eye on the kids. My mom was able to walk right in a few times and take me to my psychologist appointments without anyone asking who she was and considering the cost of day camp, she just got fed up and we got taken out of there. I was glad for that because some of the kids were way too snobby.[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]Now here's a thread I don't think we've had yet. Being a single working mother of a toddler I have some interesting stories about the people I had watching my daughter before I got lucky and found the daycare provider I have now. Being a member of a message board with a combination of parents and young adults I'm sure that there is a multitude of horror stories. Either about a person you hired to watch your kid or maybe a babysitter who your parents hired to watch you. I'm positively horrid at starting things out anyways, so I'll just tell you all a few of my own and get it over with. Back in 2005 when I was re-entering the workforce I started working A shift instead of B shift and needed to find someone to watch my then nearly 1 year old daughter. I found this one woman through a co-worker of mine who after watching my daughter for one day found out that she wasn't allowed to watch children under two years by New York State Law because she wasn't properly liscensed. So she gave me the name of another woman. I went to go see her, everything seemed fine. I had my daughter there for a week and a half maybe two weeks when one morning I go to drop my daughter off and no one answers the door or the phone. It was like the woman and her family had just up and dissapeared. I ended up having to turn around and drive two towns back to where I live and leave my daughter with my mom then drive to work and get my pay docked. I still don't know what happened. That could explain why I get a little nervous when the woman who has my daughter now doesn't answer the door right away... Gods now I feel paranoid. So anyone else?[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]Oh I avoid her alright. I've done some really normally rude un=CHW-esq things to get rid of her. I've told her that maybe she needs medication. I've decided that my daughter was awake and then never fixed my away message- the last time I did that she started asking other people where I was. The best part is when she was complaining about moving from Nova Scotia to Quebec and was blaming me and another friend for telling her to do it. Honestly if I was to tell her to do anything it would be to buy better shoes. :animesigh Anyways, thanks for the stories and advice. Keep it coming, it's good to know that I'm not alone[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]I have this 'friend' who is quite possibly one of the most annoying people I know. She has to complain about everything that's going on in her life, like her boyfriend who everyone knew didn't care about her not telling her things. And then how she thinks that he and another one of my friends have been carrying on around her back. It gets so annoying that people just ignore her (No, this isn't one of those psyche things where the 'friend is really me. This is someone that I know) So I'm wondering if anyone else knows people like that. Either on a personal or purely casual relationship level. And if you do, how do you put up with the person without trying to commit yourself to a psyche ward?[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]My ex husband's wife has some interesting nicknames for me. I can't post them all on here as the majority of them are quite obscene and she has an eerily childish personality for a woman who is pushing forty. The favorite of my friends and I is Witchy-poo. Witchy-poo. I saw that in a blog about me and thought WTF! :animestun Doesn't this woman have anything better to do than make childish nicknames for the woman whose husband she now has (Not to self: Send thank you card) Anyways new course: It's not exactly a nickname, but a few years ago I worked at a factory that inspected car parts- and made them- and for the entire duration of my ten hour shift my name was Amanda. Now don't get me wrong, Amanda is a nice name, I know pleanty of nice people named Amanda. But my name is Megan. So I have no bloody idea how I was Amanda for ten hours straight.[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]I've done it before. Not intentionally, and I didn't even know what was going on. But I predicted that my friend was going to have her baby on Feb 29th 2004 and I predicted I was going to have a girl after I found out I was pregnant. The way the birth date prediction happened was after I found out my friend was due on March 5th I kept teasing her that she was going to have her baby on Leap Day. She kepy insisting that it wasn't going to happen since your first child is usually late. But I was insisting that I was right. So on February 28th 2004 I was down in Texas and I got this strange feeling that my friend was in labor. Then when I got back to Buffalo the next day I called and her ex said she was in labor. She had her baby at 9:47PM EST on Leap Day. The whole predicting the fact my baby was going to be a girl is less interesting and intense. The ex did a tarot reading. And I was drawn to looking at girl clothes. :animesigh Now if only I could break free and predict lotto numbers.[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]I've been listening to whatever I can find. My car and my mom's office (she works from home) are dumping grounds for my CD collection. Right now it's the new SheDaisy CD Fortune Teller's Melody because I had to run out and buy a new copy. Earlier I was listening to the Essencial Cyndi Lauper. Yes! Yes I was! Don't laugh! I'm a child of the eighties. I remember when MTV still played music! Hells I remember when MTV2 actually played music. And while I was at work (ie in my car) I was switching between my radio pre-sets and Floggin' Molly's Within a Mile of Home. I could have listened to Kerosene by Miranda Lambert, but I was too lazy to find it in my little cubbie between my seat and the front passenger seat. I'd go into more detail, but I'm really tired. Ciao tutti[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]Well I can't believe I forgot this nick name. I've had it for about a year now: [b]Mommy[/b] I've subjected my daughter Abigail to a few nicknames. There's the typical [b]Abby[/b] (which is what everyone calls her in one form or another) Then Blabby Abby, Gabby Abby, Crabby Abby and Grabby Abby. And of course the less used, Abs, Abster and Abbycadrabra. Yes, I love my daughter- she's only two and can't complain about what I call her[/color][/font]

[quote name='Aceburner']You're seriously not that bad, what you seem to describe here is human nature. I force my point when no one will listen, too. Perfectly normal. Or should I seek therapy? But... You're worried about what COSMO thinks?! This is a strange and foreign concept to me.[/QUOTE] [color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]The Cosmo bit was just mentioning the quiz. It gave me the idea for the thread in the first place. I don't worry about if I'm a good girlfriend or not from a quiz, I let the guy I'm with let me know about that. Then I decide if maybe there's something I can change or if he's just being a whiner and should shut up and take it like a man. I know some parts of being assertive are human nature. In some cases I have to use that human nature to help out someone I'm taking care of or make sure that the meal I ordered from the resturaunt is really a flatbread pita instead of shredded steak on a hot dog bun. But other times it's having total control over anyone's car radio, the TV and sometimes the room temp at people's houses. And don't even get me started on my 'private life'[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]I have to make this thread because I'm noticing more and more that I tend to be a bit bossy and something of a control freak when I can be. Well that, and there was a quiz in an old issue of Cosmo about if you're good girlfriend material and one of the questions was about control. Honestly, I don't think I'm that bad. I listen to what other people say, I take turns. I don't feel as though I hog an entire conversation- although the washer and dryer are another question. Yes, I'm high maintenence at times and sometimes I'm a bit of a well... it rhymes with witch, but only when I need to get my point across. So I propose this question to the rest of you all, do you consider yourself a control freak, a leader, a follower or somewhere in between?[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]Well Glory be, he actually did make this into a thread... wee. :animestun I never said he was stupid. I said that the idea was strange. A paper machè helmet? Why do you need something like that? It just seemed strange. And completely out of the blue because I had called to tell him about something else, or just how my work day had been so far. And before I know it the conversation turns into a craft project. As for my hobbies. My mom thinks my drawing is childish, yes I am a horrid artist. But I think calling drawing childish is a bit harsh. I don't show her my writing anymore. Not that I think my writing is bad- although I've gotten some harsh criticism on some fanfiction. But I don't let it all stop me.[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy] I don't know if I mentioned this already- but must like kids since mine isn't going any where is high on the list. It ranks up there with moderate intelligence, a sense of humor and nice eyes. Oh, I don't know if this is on topic or not but last night one of my guy friends (whose girlfriend By the way is six years older than him) said that what most guys want is a young cute girl. I'm pretty sure that it's not completely true since there are a few guys out there whose girlfriends or wives are older than them, but how true is that comment?[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]I have just been newly christened Meggy-Poo.... No bloody idea why. I'd blame it on the fact that the friend who gave me this one is from Wales. But she was born in England. Does that still qualify as a reason to blame someone for a strange nickname? The coordinators are still calling me Meg Dog. No really they are. Women older than me are giving me strange nicknames and using them in public.[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]Well here's a little pagan humor.. Hope you like Pagan in Hell: A Pagan dies and, to his great surprise, he finds himself standing before some pearly gates. St. Peter asks him, "May I help you?" The Pagan asks, "Where am I?" Peter says, "You're at the gates of heaven." The Pagan says, "But I don't believe in heaven." Peter frowns at him. "You're one of those Pagans, aren't you?" "Yes. I believe I'm in the wrong place; I'm supposed to go to Summerland." Peter says, "Sorry. We took over Summerland, and it's temporarily closed for remodeling." "What should I do now?" Peter says, "Well, since we don't allow Pagans in heaven, you have to go to hell. Sorry. Just follow that path that leads downward and to the left." The Pagan walks down to hell, where the gates are standing open. He walks in and finds beautiful meadows, happy animals, and clear streams of water. He walks on in and begins exploring, and after a few minutes a courtly gentleman walks up to him and bows politely. "Hello, I'm Satan. You must be the guy that St. Peter phoned me about. Are you a Pagan?" "Yes, I am. What's going to happen now?" Satan says, "Well, the fishing's pretty good, if you enjoy that sort of thing. There's a little refreshment stand down the road. And I believe the Pagan meeting grounds are right over the next hill." Suddenly, a hole opens up in the sky above, and a yawning chasm opens directly underneath it. The stench of sulphur fills the air. Hundreds of screaming tortured souls drop down into the flaming pit, which immediately closes up with a thud. The Pagan, hardly believing what he just saw, asks Satan, "And what was THAT ???" Satan rolls his eyes. "Oh, just ignore them. They're Christians; they wouldn't have it any other way." --------------------------------------- A letter from a 3rd grade teacher sent home to Pagan parents: Dear Mr. and Mrs. Thomas, I write this letter in concern of your daughter, Aradia Moon. Please don't take this the wrong way, however, although she is a straight A student and a very bright child, she has some strange habits that I feel we should address. Every morning before class, she insists on walking around the classroom with her pencil held in the air. She says she is "drawing down the moon." I told her Art Class is in an hour and to please refrain from then to do any drawing. And speaking of Art Class, whenever she draws a night sky, she insists on drawling little circles around all the stars and people dancing on the ground. And that brings up dancing, I had to stop her twice for taking off her clothes during a game of Ring Around the Rosy! By the way, what does the term "sky clad" mean? Aradia has no problem with making friends. I always find her sitting outside during recess with her friends sitting around her in a circle. She likes to share her juice and cookies. It is nice how she wants no one to ever thirst or hunger. However, when I walked over to see what they were doing, she jumped up and told me to stop, pulled out a little plastic knife and started waving it in front of me. I thought this was a bit dangerous, so I took her to the Principal's Office. She explained to the Principal that she was "opening the Circle" to let me in. She also said that her Mommy and Daddy always told her not to play or run with an "athame" in her hand, that she could put someone's eye out. I don't know what an "athame" is, but I am glad that she keeps it at home. As for stories, your daughter tends to make up some whoppers. Just yesterday while I was talking sternly to Tommy Johnson and shaking my finger at him, he started screaming and ran from the room. When I finally caught him, he told me that Aradia told him and the rest of the class that the last time I shook my finger at someone, they caught the chicken pox. I explained to him that the Sally Jones incident was just a coincidence, and that things like that don't really happen. One of the strangest things that happened was when I asked the children to bring in Halloween decorations for the classroom. Aradia brought in salt, incense and her family album. I see she has quite a sense of humor. One of Aradia's worst habits is that she is very argumentative. We were discussing what the Golden Rule was (Do Unto others as you would have them Do Unto You), she firmly disagreed with me and stated it was "Do As You Will, but Harm None" and she will not stop saying "So Mote It Be" after she reads aloud in class. I tried to correct her on these matters and she got very angry. She pointed her finger at me and mumbled something under her breath. In closing, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas, I would like to set up a parent/teacher conference with you sometime next week to discuss these matters. I would like to see you sooner, but I have developed an irritating rash that I am quite worried about. With Deep Concerns, Mrs. Livingston P.S. Blessed Be. I understand that this is a greeting or closing from your country that your daughter informs me is polite and correct. A Very Modern Princess A fairy tale for the assertive woman of the millennium. Once upon a time, in a land far away, A beautiful, independent, self-assured princess, happened upon a frog as she sat contemplating ecological issues on the shore of an unpolluted pond in a verdant meadow near her castle. The frog hopped into the Princess' lap and said: Elegant Lady, I was once a handsome Prince, until an evil witch cast a spell upon me. One kiss from you, however, and I will turn back into the dapper, young Prince I am and then, my sweet, we can marry and set up housekeeping in yon castle, with my Mother... Where you can prepare my meals, clean my clothes, bear my children, and forever feel grateful and happy doing so. That night, as the Princess dined sumptuously on a repast of lightly sautéed frog legs seasoned in a white wine and onion cream sauce, she chuckled to herself and thought: I don't friggin? think so.

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]Wow, I actually have replies, nice thanks. There are some real interesting stories behind some of them. Oh man I realized I have some more myself... none are too pretty, and I think one of two may make you scratch your head Meg Dawg- I just got this name recently from the coordinators at my job. I have no idea why- well no concrete idea just some vague thoughts as to why. They gave me this name because of all the hours I work. It's even up on the calandar (this huge wipe off one on an easle when you walk into the office) that Meg Dawg is the employee of the month again... I think I may need a new company just to keep my sanity. Megabug- Yet another name that I have no idea how I got. Thankfully it hasn't been used in years. I used to work at a cafeteria as a prep cook. The grill cook just one day gave me that name. And he kept calling me that until I left. Good times... good times Nutmeg- Complete lack of creativity on my chemistry lab partner's part I can assure you. But by the end of the second semester in my junior year it was sticking. Stupid high school. :animesigh Meg chan- My friend Angel calls me this. I don't know where she got it from Mee chan- My friend Tina calls me this. She used to call me Nee chan because she's younger than me and was calling me big sister. But then my boyfriend got confused (it happens a lot) so she changed it to Mee chan. Mimi - This has nothing to do with that woman on the Drew Carey Show with all that eye shadow and loud clothing. It's just something my friends came up with when we were trying out nicknames. As for more names I have subjected my friends to... Lili- One of my friend Lisa's nicknames. There's really not much that you can do with a name like that, but it's the best we can do. Titi- One of my friend Tina's nicknames. Actually Tina is a nickname for Christina, so what you have here is just a nickname of a nick name. It's also kind of funny because Titi is Vietnamese for small or tiny and Tina is 1.) Vietnamese and 2.) The shortest out of my friends. Amd don't let Lee (Spy46) fool you, he has pleanty of nicknames... some of them I don't think he's fully aware of.[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]And what ones have you inflicted on your friends. A few weeks ago my friend was on the phone with another one of our friends and called her boyfriend who happened to be drunk and gave our friend the new nickame: Tinker From Tennessee. I kid you not, we now call her that. Which brings to mind other unfortunate or secretive nicknames you may have received through the years. Whether they make sense or not everyone has them. SOme of them are obvious and others just make you sit back and think what the *censored* So what are some of yours? Most of mine are obvious: Meg- My given name is Megan so the simplest way to call me is Meg. My parentsstill call me Meg and I'm 26. The only time this nickname got annoying was a few years ago when I was working in a warehouse and it seemed that no one could manage the two syllables of my name so EVERYONE called me Meg. Meggy- Only my friend Lisa is allowed to call me this. Anyone else is expressly forbidden. Chibi- Only on Otakuboards. Probably because of my username. Names inflicted on my friends or accquantences? Blodwyn- This is a nickname given to one girl who I have an off and on friendship with She reminds me of a character of the same name.,.. and not in a good way. So anyone else?[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]LOL I scored a 69 last time. Let's see what I do now! 1.) Princess Nine (The plot was centered around Baseball and rivalries. Nothing else) 2.)

Pokemon (it's a given) 6.) Peach Girl (Well it is an anime now) 7.) Trigun (They use a lot of weapons, but no super powers) Well there's my seven picks. It was hard.[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]I had to put my color enhancing gloss on my hair and leave it there for five minutes tonight. So that's the biggest part of my thread. Kind of. Actually it's just a discussion on hair. Which depending on the people could go either way. Here are the basic questions 1.) Long or short 2.) Color 3.) Have you dyed it? 4.) If you have dyed it, what colors has it been? 5.) What length do you prefer on the opposite sex? As for myself 1.) My hair's short. I got it cut a few weeks ago so it's longer in the front and shorter in the back. I think next month I'll make it a little shorter. I like it this way. It used to be past my shoulders, but then I'd try to roll over in bed and then pull on it, or it'd get caught in the car window. Long story there. 2.) Dark reddish violet... black. Well it was a dark black violet, but the color seal I have for it is for dark red, so now that's the color that it's turning. 3.) Well if two didn't answer your question, yes it's dyed. My natural hair color is a medium brown. 4.) I've dyed it various shades of red over the past ten years. I've also done hi-lights during my pregnancy. But the only problem with that is that it's VERY expensive. So I don't see myself doing it any time soon. YEs I know they have DIY kits, but I did that once and it ended up really funky looking with one large chunk of blonde near my forehead. 5.) On guys I like short hair. I don't know why, but that's just what I've gone for short haired clean shaven guys. Well hopefully this can generate more discussion.... hopefully[/color][/font]

[quote name='Lunox'][font="trebuchet ms"] I agree with James. Culture can survive with or without language, but if you look at something like Korean culture, the language certainly plays a part. There are parts to the Korean language that don't exist in any other language and say a lot about the culture surrounding it. [/font][/QUOTE] [color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]I can't believe that no one has brought this up. Korean culture is an excellent example of how you don't need to be allowed to speak the language to have culture. Korea was taken over by Japan in 1911 (date subject to debate) and the Japanese government prohibited their dress, culture and language to be used. But everything still prospered and people kept their culture in secret and worked hard to maintain their heritage. So there you have it, culture can survive without language[/color][/font]

[quote name='Gavin'][SIZE="1"]I have to admit, freshly cut grass definitely has a great smell, that said though, I can't imagine going around the entire day smelling like a well maintained lawn.[/SIZE][/QUOTE] [color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]I don't know about you Gavin, but I'd rather go about the day smelling like someone's yard than smelling of meat. I have to agree with Lunox about the Axe. The smell of that just makes me want to hurl and I get a head ache from being around it. I mean it, whenever I go shopping I pretty much have to run past Abercrombie and Fitch because the scent just wafts out the doors into the rest of the mall. Yeck I swear I think that is the cheapest smelling cologne ever.[/color][/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]I got this email from a friend a while back and I thought it was funny. So now I'll share it with everyone else... then send it around. Are you sick of all those sissy "friendship" poems that always sound like Hallmark cards, and never come close to reality? Well, here is a series of promises that really speak to true friendship: 1. When you are sad - I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad. 2. When you are blue - I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you. 3. When you smile - I will know you've finally had sex. 4. When you are scared - I will rag on you about it every chance I get. 5. When you are worried, I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be and tell you to quit whining. 6. When you are confused - I will use little words. 7. When you are sick - stay the hell away from me until you are well again, I don't want whatever you have. 8. When you fall - I will point and laugh at your clumsy ***. This is my oath...I pledge it till the end. Why, you ask? Because you are my friend. Send this to 10 of your closest friends, then get depressed because you can only think of two, and one of them isn't speaking to you anyway. Remember: A good friend will help you move. A really good friend will help you move a body. Let me know if I ever need to bring a shovel. And now for a dumb joke: Why did Bob fall off the bike? Because he was a fish And now some not [i] as[/i] dumb jokes- I'm in a mood so most of them are men bashing. Q: How do you turn a dishwasher into a snowblower? A: Give him a shovel Q: Why did God create men first? A: To show that even God loves a good joke Q: Why did God ask Abraham to sacrifice his son when he was twelve? A: Because if He waited until he was a teenager then it wouldn't be a sacrifice.[/color][/font]

[quote name='spy46']i mean its not like there is sawdust, oil, dirt or meat smelling soap sure there is AXE or what ever, but in general there really isnt any thing like that for guys am i right?:confused:[/QUOTE] [color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy] 1.) Thank whatever powers that be that ther isn't soap that smells like meat... or anything else you named for that matter. But really especially meat. I bet the dogs would love that. 2.) There's pleanty of men smelling products. My brother has some Old Spice body wash right now and it smells pretty good in the bathroom after he's done with a shower. You just have to know where to look. As for me I'm very partial to this Coconut something or other concoction by Caress that I get at Target. Bodywash wise it works pretty good. It has pomegranet seeds and Tahitian palm milk. Well that's the cheaps stuff at least. I also have this one from Victoria's Secret called Amber Romance. It came in a set with my lotion and body spray. But that's just body wash. I color my hair a lot so I have to have special shampoo for that. Right now it's dark burgundy which is a hard color to maintain so I have Shampoo to increase my color along with a color boost gloss. It doesn't smell as nice as my usual two in one for my dry hair (That's coconut milk and orchid from Herbal Esscences) But it keeps my color so I use it. The thing is though guys that yeah we're not hugging you to smell you, but for some of us it's just odd to smell a guy who smells girly. Even though we do smell better.[/color][/font]
