saturday-8 :: another smorgasboard!!!



your hostess has had an insane week, so these questions have no specific theme...



1. i have PMS like i just can't believe. my drug of choice to placate the inner beast has been some walnut fudge i grabbed at winn-dixie. i've been mainlining it, i swear. when you are cranky or edgy, do you have a favourite comfort food? It's ice cream and when things are really bad, any flavor will do!



2. the guy i'm seeing is from israel, and his favourite snack is called 'bamba.' it's like a peanut-flavoured puffy cheeto, and you can't get them in the US unless they're imported to a store. i ordered a boxful of them for his birthday this week. is there a favourite snack that you used to eat when you were smaller that you can't get anywhere, like a drink or a candy? I remember buying weenie shaped gum for a penny. I loved those little weenie gums and can't find them anywhere.



3. the man who molested my daughters had a hearing to terminate his probation early, which is standard for someone who hasn't violated. my soon-to-be-ex didn't even SHOW UP. i had to face the molester by myself, barely containing my anger and desire to cold-clock him in the head, and all my stbx said was, "yeah, thanks for going." when was the last time someone let you down? I can't remember. There have been many disappoinments, but I can't recall a specific incident where I felt totally let done.



4. i have begun to have feelings for the israeli guy, but it's not supposed to be an 'emotional relationship.' when was the last time you felt romantically for someone whom you either weren't supposed to feel romantically for, OR someone who didn't return those romantic feelings? I've been married so long, I can't remember. LOL



5. i have heartburn after eating too much taco bell. when was the last time you ate something that affected you physically? Wednesday! We had a retirement party for Jack and it was potluck. All the food was heavy and the variety too disparate. I came home feeling like I had an anchor in my stomach. I couldn't eat anything for dinner and kept taking ex-lax!



6. my car was totalled, and i have a $1,100 rental car bill. luckily, my insurance covered $300 and my mechanic (whom i bought my new car from) is paying for some of what i owe on the rest. when was the last time you rented a car, and was it expensive? I rented a car about two years ago and was great because the dealership paid for the rental.



7. my youngest child lost her first tooth yesterday. do you remember losing your first tooth? Goodness, no!



8. i wore a dress to work that one (extremely jealous) co-worker commented to my supervisor about, stating that it was SHORT. it was ... a little ... and my supervisor had an off-the-record chat with me. i thanked her, and then was getting ready to go home, and saw ANOTHER co-worker in an even SHORTER skirt and a tight-tight-tight wife-beater tanktop that proudly displayed her DD breasts. i wanted to drag her by the hair to my supervisor and show her the outfit. when was the last time you were a victim of a double-standard? I think it happens a lot. The thing is, do you turn around snitch on the other person? If so, does it make you feel better or as if you've been vindicated? I just let the whole thing ride. What goes around comes around.
