Is it Live, or is it Memorex?

After a delicious dinner, (e:Pyrcedgrrl) and (e:Theecarey) sit in the Elmwood Spot Coffee. The comfy velvet sofa, fragrant caffeinated beverages and lull of the crowd around them setting the scene for good conversation and people-watching.
The girls see a girl who looks a bit like someone they knew several months ago. (e:pyrcedgrrl) mentions that the girl was okay to work with, but was horrible once she was even slightly intoxicated.
Suddenly, (e:Theecarey) perks up, and in a shill voice exclaims, "Yeah! Except that time at McMonkees!" She quickly slaps a hand over ther mouth, but knows it is too late.

As if they are suddenly catapulted into a movie, time slows to a crawl; the speakers, which only seconds before had been blaring cheesy 80's tunes screech and go silent; suddenly all eyes are on them. No one says a word.

An employee hurriedly makes his way over. He states flatly that the girls will have to leave the premises immediately. (e:Pyrcedgrrl) begins to protest, and, as if on cue, 2 more employees descend upon the girls and they are snatched up by their collars and unceremoniously tossed out into the cold, damp night.

People return to their abandoned conversations, the music picks back up and all is right in Caffeine Land again.

(e:Theecarey) and (e:Pyrcedgrrl) are left with the shame and humiliation that comes with people knowing you once hung out on Chippewa--even if it was just for the free drinks.

All this actually happened...... in our warped little minds. :)

Hurricane Rita Evacuation

I was watching the news tonight about all those poor people who ended up stranded along the highway while doing exactly what they were told to do- evacuate Southeastern Texas. : None of the gas stations had gas to sell, even though relief tankers were supposed to be stationed along the way for the travelers.

It showed several people with small children stranded, relief workers handing out water, etc... but none of this really got to me....

Then they showed citizens from the towns along the highway who, out of the kindness of their hearts, showed up with gas cans to give these travelers along the road gas to get them back on the road.

sniffle* That was just too awesome. It brought tears to my eyes.

Yeah, bedtime now.. lol

Wow... what a night! My bestest friend (e:theecarey)'s party turned out to be a total success! It was great meeting everyone who made it! :)

Thanks so much to all of you who made the trek from far-away lands to help her celebrate!!! :)

The cake no one would dare to eat.

But they certainly did have fun playing with it!

Don't poke your eye out! (part of (e:theecarey)'s gag gift from moi! My b-day is in 3 weeks... I just know she is going to one-up me....as usual.. lol)

She's wanted that Warrant CD for years! LMAO

S'Mores virgin deflowered!

(e:ladycroft) & (e:Leetee) stirring up more party-goers! (and doing naughty things on the sofa)

Self-explanitory :) ((E:ladycroft), I keep looking at these and hearing "Duggga Dugga Dugga Dugg-Ga..... Uhhhhhhhh" in my head. LOL)

All the (e:peeps) came late, so they must have missed this warning sign...

And this was the result:

And a few random shots of the birthday girl:

The advice roulette wheel....

I hate it when people come to you with a problem and then ask you, "What would you do?"

It seems that, usually, they are not actually looking for what you would do in the situation, but rather what you think they should do.

Then, when you tell them what you would do if you were in their shoes, you get a rebuttal. (usually something like, "Yeah, but....blah blah blah..." where they give you a whole new set of crap to try to get you to change your response) Meaning that they actually took it as YOU TELLING THEM WHAT THEY SHOULD DO and they don't want to do it.

If they were actually asking for what YOU would do in said situation, there would be no room for a rebuttal, would there? They would take what you say at face value and see how they could apply your take on the situation to their final action.

sigh*

People just need to say what they mean. :)

First post :)

Been on here for a bit and forgot to post! Hmm.. what to put in an initial post?

Probably just the everyday stuff....
I'm Dana, 29, living in Lewiston currently, mom to one 12 yr old kiddo, 4 cats and a newly adopted rat.

I'm pretty laid back (sometimes TOO much), fun and friendly. I have an ever-changing sense of humor. Dry, dark, goofy, witty, sarcastic and everything in-between. :)
Love meeting new people, hanging out w/ friends, talking forever, coming up w/ new excuses to get sushi on a daily basis, random adventures and good times. :)

Recently lost my job and am searching desperately for one at the moment, feeling like a big ol' loser :)

In the next 5 years I would like to get back into school and finish something for once, perhaps buy a house somewhere, settle back and have another.....20 or so cats ;)
