I sometimes have to fight the urge to knock sense and/or realism in to people who seem to live in an oblivious fantasy world…...I can usually convince myself with the argument that the knock would hurt me more than the recipient.
@Mcbean, I mean a VERY naughty girl, you know, one of those when daddy not home it’s always a party type of girl.
@uberbatman: I’m so sorry. It’s only been a few days, though, right? Rest, and see your doc or chiropractor regularly about it.

It offered me some fruit from this forbidden tree in my backyard.
I declined.

Scamp, that reminds me of a related story, if you don’t mind me sharing.
I was married to a SHAKER, a person who always has to pick up a gift-wrapped package and SHAKE it vigorously, to try to determine the contents.
She’d do that with every package that she knew was hers, be it Xmas time or birthdays, or whatever.
One Xmas season, I decided to see if I could CURE her of that habit, so I went to a friend and had her wrap up a box in beautiful giftwrap, containing nothing but BROKEN GLASS.
Naturally, my bride picked it up, gave it shake, heard the sounds of the broken glass, and I said, “Oh no! Those were PRICELESS GLASS FIGURINES! How could you?”
On Xmas Day I revealed my joke to her, and within six weeks, we were divorced, for some reason.
Some folks just can’t take a joke, I guess.

@ my reveal for today is I can’t stop thinking about Darknymph’s reveal.

Just asking…

The funny thing Mcbean is I was going to ask a similar question today. As to my answer I feel absolutely exhausted. I feel like my legs are going to fall off. I had to wake at 7 this morning get to my school for a cross country practice from 8–10 (a hard practice mind you). Then straight from there I went home showered and dressed for work in which I had to be at, at 11. I just got home from work at 5:45. So I have been on my legs since 7 am and I find them to be in quite a lot of pain. Ouch ouch ouch. Oh and I have a lot of homework.
@Trance24: Quick! Into a hot tub with you! Save the homework for tomorrow when you’ll have a well-rested brain.
@stratman: Must have something to do with Einstein’s Theory of Relatives.
September 6, 2008, 6:07 PM EDT
@Mcbean I wish I could just drop the homework but I simply can not there is too much. I have to do part tonight and part tomorrow after I get off of work. I go in tomorrow at 7 and get home at 3. =[ So much work so little time.
@stratman: I admire you, for having the BALLS to post the things you do.

Sorry, Jack. I’ll have to take this up later, I’ve got to attend my son’s birthday party.
It may sound like a lame excuse, but it’s not my FAULT!!!
Yes it is.
He wouldn’t be here to HAVE a birthday, if it wasn’t for you.
Did you LOVE being part of the conception process?

@Bri_L: I haven’t had a MATCH, since Superman died.
Or since I quit smoking!

I just wanna publicly say that STRATMAN37 is a WONDERFUL and TERRIFIC human being!
And he’s the FIRST ONE to admit it!
September 6, 2008, 6:44 PM EDT
I contacted EVERYONE who admires STRATMAN37, and BOTH of them had only the nicest things to say about him.
September 6, 2008, 6:58 PM EDT
I’ll tell you the kind of fantastic human being STRATMAN37 is:
He would NOT HESITATE to cut off your right arm for you.
You don’t find guys like THAT, anymore!

There are just an abundance of wonderful women on fluther!
But I have a weakness for posts that start “my fantasy is….”
hehehe

I’m from California. I love to travel. My friend are the family I chose. Personality-wise, I’m a lover (not a fighter). I played rugby. I have one tattoo and seven piercings. People always think I’m a such goody goody, but once they get to know me they realize I’m not really like that (not all the time at least). I like parties. I like scary movies. I’m not afriad of the dark and can’t sleep unless it’s pitch black. I’ve got two dogs (Angus and Bleu) and two cats (Sophie and Jett). I’m ticklish as hell. Chocolate is better than vanilla.

Last night I was 5 feet away from Dave Matthews, and tonight my wife hugged dave and took a picture with him, and tomorrow I’ll be in the from row at the show. After Sunday night, I’ll have seen dave in concert 17 times.
I’ve had a great few weeks.
Labor Day weekend I went to a great music and arts festival with my sweetie. I’m still feeling that.
Friday my daughter brought me to a baseball game since she won tickets to it. The seats were great and they have decent beer and food at games these days. It was a great game to see, too. They were so “on”.
And yesterday we had fun at the mall and saw Pineapple Express—which was not a great movie but it was fun. Afterward we had fun browsing the bookstore.
“What do you want to share about yourself today?”
1) I love Fluther, the people here are great, I love answering questions and spend more time than I should here.
2) I should be doing something on my ‘to do’ list instead of answering this question (refer to #1) , but I’m not as disciplined as I should be.
3) I like to make lists (notice #2).
4) I am generally optimistic (ie, I’m sure someone will give my lurve for this answer), yet I worry too much (ie, but what if no one gives me lurve for this answer, that would be so embarassing, since I mentioned that I’m sure someone will give me lurve in this answer)
5) When I tell people things like ‘I hope you have a great day!’, ‘I’ll keep you in my thoughts.’, ‘My heart goes out to you’ and other such sentiments, I mean it. I’m not just saying it.
6) I hope you all are having a great day! (and ya know I mean it)
7) I love giving lurve…a round of ‘great answers’ for everyone on me :0P

Well, today I have nothing to share about myself…but I would like to share something about someone else. (hey I rhymed). It’s our dear scamp ‘s birthday today (9th sept), so make sure you wish her!!
sorry McBean, I didn’t mean to take over your thread. everyone wanting to wish scamp should go to her profile so as not to make this too off topic
No worries, PnL. There is also this thread on which to wish our friend a Happy Day.
