Happy Weekend Everyone! What's going on?

Going to be leaving in abt an hour.

Right now just wondering how that Hillary Clinton thread appeared as a "new post" on the board...I responded to it because I seen it there as a new post. I didn't even notice the date. How did that happen?????

I am soooooo hungry. I haven't eaten and it is already noon. I have no plans for the weekend. Guess I will just play it by ear.

:lol: @ the Clinton post. Just a silly gliche, I guess. Thanks for the wine cooler Irene. In this heat, I need it.
:cheers:

I have nothing special planned - I just plan on relaxing. :cool:

Have all of you on here been here for a long time? It sounds like you all know each other well.
No plans here for the weekend, but getting ready for a vacation next week.

only four weeks until i move out.

Tonight, my buddy Kieron's new bar Conker Hill officially opens, and anyone who is anyone in my circle of friends should be there.

Is this going to be my new hangout? Will TJL leave the Gaf behind?

Stray tuned and find out.

Tomorrow night I'm going to a Staten Island Yankees game which is always a good time. My roommate got us great seats this year. Plus the beer is five bucks a bottle.

;)

Welcome to the board. Enjoy the ride. :wave:


Yeah Janice, someone had posted on that Hillary thread, but I guess after I posted, that poster deleted their post because I don't see the post that originally bumped up that thread. Maybe they saw the initial date of that thread and decided to delete their post. Sounds logical.

I am so tired right now. I am dealing with a tenant who is "picky". Arrrrgggh. She is a nice lady and all, but some people expect perfection with certain repairs/upgrades. :crazy:

I am taking it easy this weekend; my mom is in the hospital, but she is will be home tomorrow, hopefully. Mean while, I met my GORGEOUS niece, Elizabeth for the first time; so, I am going to spend my weekend with my family:)
Whoo Hoo...Give mom a hug for me!!!!!! WELCOME HOME MOM!!!! :clap:

Hey that's great that your Mom's coming home Tara and that you get to meet your niece. It sounds like you're going to have a great weekend. :)

Welcome to the Board. :wave:

A friend of mine, who I met here at SO in 2003, is coming up to PA on Monday and we're spending the week together! I cannot tell you how excited I am! She is my best friend and all because of SO! I will definitely be posting pictures!! So this weekend I'll be getting things ready! :D

Awwwww cool! Have fun! I'm also meeting an SO member (evilnpunk...she rarely posts here anymore, but I know her through other sites too) next weekend in NYC :)

Aww I know her, I wish she would post more. That's awesome! See what SO has done for us? We make great friends! :D

My weekend has gotten off to a bad start. :( I hope it gets better.


I hope that your weekend gets better, Jenny. :)

This is the first weekend in a long time that I have both Saturday and Sunday off. :D I am going to simply relax and take it easy. I'm also planning on watching Less Than Zero sometime today. :)

Tara, I hope that you have a great time with your niece. :)

Relaxing after a long week of work is always nice. :)

My pets are nagging me for treats again!

Give her a big hug for me and tell her "What's Up???" I wish she would post more here. Tell her I never forget abt her fascination with Patti Lupone!;) Everytime I see that actress I remember evilnpunk.

Relaxing after a long week of work is always nice. :)
It would have been a lot more relaxing if there were no stupid orange barrels, cones, and detours to deal with while I was running errands today!! :angryfire

what is weekend Chat all about

Hey, everyone! :wave:

I have been dealing with a lot of personal stress and trying to see what my future holds for me to act upon it in a positive light. I've been switching between summer depression (it's not as bad as during the winter, thankfully!) and also what *I* truly want from my life. It's been a long and cold journey, so I thought I would just stay away from the forums (it's not this one but also another forum I frequent) so I wouldn't act moody or even distraught and interrupt anyone's lives. I don't know how often I plan on returning or anything, but I have promised emails, PMs, and messages to a lot of people. I also have a lot of the thread replies saved in my email box from the email notifications I receive since late June that I still want to reply to. Plus, catch up on the newer threads. Oyyyy....I do want to get caught up because I want to join in, so I promise I hope it'll be soon.

My weekend, so far? It's been going quite well. Yesterday was a really full and funfilled day! Friday I went to Step Aerobics, went to the first airing of the movie premiere of I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry in my city (I'm never the type, but it rocked! :D), went to a training from some speaker from NDSU (North Dakota State U), hung out at a coffee house, and attended a game night/pizza night with this group of people. I returned home pooped out!

I left a voice mail for my apartment complex for them to fix my shower handle. It got stuck and then got loose where the water does not come on! ARGH! I need to shower soon!! Maintenance didn't come by, but I hope they go by and fix it soon. I'm currently at work, but I'm attending a post wedding social dinner tonight at my friend's in-laws' house. Just a couple of hours ago I learned that my aunt is also having a rosary prayer and a dinner for my cousin who passed away nearly a year ago. I don't really want to attend because it's a sad situation and event. I know it sounds selfish, but....

Okay...this turned out to be a novel. All apologies!

what is weekend Chat all about
Weekend Chat is a thread where members drop in and out and talk about what they're doing for the weekend. :)

It's not to be confused with The Advice Thread, Feel Good or Complaint Department threads. That's not to say that people can't talk about how they're feeling here, but I've seen instances where members get their feelings hurt because they don't get replies or advice here. It's not about that, it's a place to talk about your weekend.

Hey, everyone! :wave:
Hi Mona. I've been wondering where you've been. I hope everything falls into place for you. Sorry about your depression. Life is hard, but I can see that you're a strong person.

Yeah, I know. I am guilty of this. Sucks to feel depressed. That's why I opt to stay away from forums for a while. :(

Don't stay away Mona. It's not good to alienate yourself either. I've found that when I'm feeling down, this is just the place to be to lift my spirits. Just the laughs bring me up sometimes. This place has some funnnnny members. :lol:

Hugs go out to you. Depression does suck...big time. People here know of what you are going through. :wave:


Well, I am going to the grocery store and run over to Home Depot and see what the garden dept. has in store for me. :D


Hey, does anyone else have a chicken place (restaurant) called Chik-fil-A in their area???? We had one open up abt a month ago and the sandwiches are so damn good!!!! They aren't greasy or anything like that. I understand this is a place that is more popular in the midwest and eastern part of the U.S.

You've got a good point there, Janice. I just know myself way too well. When I am feeling extremely down, way too hard on myself, or even depressed, I get into these moods where I easily get sensitive if I try and get to know someone or even try and write them, and they give me no response. Then, I feel hurt. It pisses me off about myself, so I figure that room is the best medicine for me. It's not the healthiest. True about the funny people around here, but when I try and get into convos with them, I just feel like I am the third wheel. It's mainly when I am in the aforementioned moods. It's not always. I am feeling in the loop of these moods lately, so that's why I am not around as much as well as other personal stress.

I will try and just be more open to just trying to last the laughter is the best medicine practice from the funny people and threads here. Thanks. :)

Thanks for your words, Jenny and Irene! :wave:

We have them here in New Mexico. We've had them for some years alreadyThey are good! I love their chicken sandwiches and their chicken fingers. Yum! :drool:

Today I had to go have my birds wings clipped (again).
He was not a happy camper.

This pretty girl wanted me and her to catch the bus to Atlantic City but I said-"I have to decline because outings like that need to be factored into my financial equation-lol And the fact that she is pretty and I kind of have a crush on her, the day was going to be on me so it was no way I could just pick up and GO somewhere like-that

I like their Waffle fries

The main road near my house is under repair right now. That slows down traffic big time. Especially during weekday rush hour.

I think everytime I see one of your posts, Monika, you are using a different avatar. :lol:

I hope you enjoy your weekend off. :) I remember I watched that movie last year. I think it was last year. Are you still feeling sick? I hope not.



Thanks. :) That is such a sad movie. When Robert Downey Jr.'s character dies at the end it always makes me sad. Though I think you pretty much know it is going to happen.

I am feeling a little better. :)

I'm gald to see you back, Mona. I missed you. I was wondering where you were. I was thinking of sending you an email to ask if you were okay or not.

I know what you are going through right now, Mona. I think I am going through many of the same things right now too. My life is also not where I would like it to be and I am not at all happy about where I am right now. I have been doing a great deal of thinking about what I can do to make it better. I expected to be in a far better place at age 30 (31 in two weeks) and I trying to figure out what I need to do to get my life to where I want it to be.

I'm gald that your weekend is off to a great start. :)

A friend of mine, who I met here at SO in 2003, is coming up to PA on Monday and we're spending the week together! I cannot tell you how excited I am! She is my best friend and all because of SO! I will definitely be posting pictures!! So this weekend I'll be getting things ready! :D


That sounds like a lot of fun, Kelly. :) I hope that you and your friend have a great time.. :)

I was also wondering where Mona was. I'm sorry that your life isn't where you want it to be Mike. I know my life isn't where I want it to be either. I hope that things get better for you and that things fall into place for you. I hope that your life will be where you want it to be and that you will feel happy soon. :hug:



Thanks, Jenny. :) I hope so too.

Cheer up, Mona!! :bighug: Hey, did you ever try my mom's creamy chicken casserole recipe??

You're right, Mike, I just can't seem to find an avatar I'm willing to stick with yet for more than a week!! :rofl:

You're right, Mike, I just can't seem to find an avatar I'm willing to stick with yet for more than a week!! :rofl:

I've noticed. :lol: I think that one night last week you changed it like twice in the same night. :lol:

I just sitback and watch TV and relax because I work on Sunday Evenings

You're right, Mike, I just can't seem to find an avatar I'm willing to stick with yet for more than a week!! :rofl:
The picture you have of Elizabeth now is positively stunning. She was so gorgeous.

Yes, it is. I think this is the one I'll stick with.

Didn't do a damn thing today. I just stayed home nearly the whole time, apart from walking three miles right before the sun set at a nearby track. I did wash my dishes, but it was nice! Now, I've gotta really start my sex paper that I am writing for my final paper for my Human Sexuality class. It's gotta be between 7-10 pages long, and I know what I wanna write. I am just being lazy. It's due on Tuesday! Yikes! :lol:

Mona, when I read your threads, I feel that you and I have a lot in common. I know how it feels to depressed and being hard on yourself; if you EVER need someone to talk to, I am there for you, girl (always); remember, no one said life was easy, but it is easier when you have friends around that do care:)
Thanks, Tara. I know that I have been telling you that I will send you a PM, and I mean it. I am just either lazy or busy. I do plan on dedicating an evening this week for sending out long overdue messages. I have a lot to tell you.

Thanks, Mike! Did you get that last email note I sent you last week? Not sure if it made any sense or not. Same as with Tara, I will dedicate an evening to sending out overdue email replies.

Cheer up, Mona!! :bighug: Hey, did you ever try my mom's creamy chicken casserole recipe??
Thanks, Monika! Ohhh....as I mentioned to Brad a couple of weeks ago, I still have yet to make the recipes you both have sent me. I am in dire need to dedicate some time to make both of your yummy dishes. I haven't forgetten. I've just been quite lazy.

well I was supposed to post here yesterday but sorry I did not have time so I'll post how my weekend went

well on friday left for fresno. When we got there we ate then at 10pm went down to barnes and noble for the new harry potter book premire which my cousin was gonna buy.

No, I didn't recieve anything from you last week, Mona. The last email that I recieved from you was the response to the one I sent you two Fridays ago.

That was the email note I was referring to. I wasn't sure if what I wrote made sense or even if it sounded too bizzare, as it partially explains my absence around the forums. Anyway...I am getting the real email reply out to you this week.

Aww I know her, I wish she would post more. That's awesome! See what SO has done for us? We make great friends! :D
It's because of SO I've met Dustin (Dutabi84) and Tara (Hollywood Rock Chic). I met Dustin because the company he was working for got contracted to do a project in my town. I met Tara because I flew out to southern California and she was nearby, so we were able to make it work. :D

Have fun! :cool:

went to a training from some speaker from NDSU (North Dakota State U)

Ooo, NDSU. That's just three hours from me... Their campus is freakin' gorgeous. D'ya remember who the speaker was? (you can PM me the name if you're not comfortable saying it here) I know some people from each of the universities around ND. :lol:
