how about drinking?

Did I get the year right? I think the epi-center was like 50 miles from there? Out in the desert. I don't recall now as I've been to SO many towns/airports over and over again but that bed swaying I DO remember!
And, me still wild? Sometimes!

Yes, the desert southeast of my town always getting hit. Near Palm Springs. They're due for a good one soon, although they just had a major fire. They need a break.

I don't think there is any way to read when they will hit. It's like trying to pin point a burp. Although October is the month we all wonder. It can get hotter than heck here in the Fall. Earthquakes are just so random.

Yep, that's her. She's kind of cute close up.

Maybe she can replace the BC.org lady(with/without hat or shades??) above. We could change her scarf and clothes to match the season.

I had to look at her again, to see the cuteness. My initial reaction was much like yours, Donna. You just have to get to know her, if you know what I mean. It's in the eyes or something.

P.S. No I'm not drinking. LOL

Funny thread

This one's not quite so scary looking...

Hi Shel...my daughter did the same thing with the black hair...I too could have killed her at the time but it grew on me and is really beautiful now (really long and silky...lucky her) and now she wants to get rid of it!! (I'll try to figure out how to post a pic of her) They told her that there really wasn't any way to get it out as black really clings to your hair and the only solution would be to cut it off and start over...I told her she could give herself a brush cut and look like mom but don't think she's too keen on that idea.
Burning like crazy all of a sudden from rads...did #22 today with 8 to go...need a drink to ignore the burn.
Have a great night all.

Shel - I bet that apple didn't fall far from the tree, huh?? and what's up with the crack stuff. can't people take a joke. why does everyone have to take stuff so literally? geez!!

So I had a little too much wine yesterday right before my 21 yr old came home for the night before leaving for the weekend w/ her first "real" b-friend. I gave her a lecture on the power of her womanhood. Don't know if she got it or not. Just can't stand a wimpy woman. Bet you can't wait 'til you have to deal with that stuff? Hair issues just aren't quite as important.

Shel - It's totally about saying "no" that gets them to want it more. I took my daughter to get her naval pierced when she was 17, no sooner did she do it that she decided it was too trendy and everyone has it done so now she wants to be different. Then for graduation she decided to cut and blonde up her beautiful long auburn hair. All her friends were blonde or had blonde highlights. $150 bucks later she decides that she looks like everyone else and spent years trying to grow it back out to the original color, after dark brown, red stripes, and black hair attempts. I never said no to stuff like hair, piercings because that always meant that she'd try harder at getting it. On the tattoo thing, I let them talk to my bro and he exaggerated how expensive and painful it is. Changed both the son's and daughter's minds. I'm not in to tattoos (they give me anxiety, too permanent) so I was grateful.

Now alcohol, for some reason, they haven't changed their minds on that one. Like I said the apple....

cheers deb (january girl).........don't peel the steri's off.....let them loosen up over time.........sounds like you came through with flying colours!

Just wondering why everything stays in, on, or takes so long for me?? Drains in left 2 weeks, right 3 weeks. Drained for another 4 weeks. Steri-strips didn't come off for 5 weeks, finally pulled them off. Couldn't shower for 3, plus one day. Still waiting for recons. to begin.. I could go on, BUT no more pity party today...
