1. MY MOUTH IS SORE. I WAS AT THE DENTIST THIS MORNING AND THERE WAS A LOT OF PRODDING AND SCRAPING WITH POINTY THINGS.

2. IT LOOKS AS IF A BOMB HAS GONE OFF IN HERE, I HAVE NO IDEA HOW ONE PERSON AND TWO CATS CAN MAKE SO MUCH MESS.

3. I EMPATHISE, RAINBABY, MY MAIN VIBRATOR DIED A WHILE AGO AND I HAVEN'T REPLACED IT YET, DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE NEAREST STORE TO WHERE I LIVE SELLS LINGERIE, ADULT DVDS AND SEX TOYS. I AM TOO EMBARRASSED TO GO IN AND HAVEN'T YET GOT ROUND TO ORDERING ONE ON THE NET.

1. I LOVE THAT YOU ALL LOVE YOUR VIBRATORS.

2. THERE'S A GOOD CHANCE THIS KID IS COMING OUT EARLY BECAUSE MY BP KEEPS SPIKING. RIGHT NOW, I'M ON BEDREST--BUT I'M NOT VERY GOOD AT IT.

3.MY DAUGHTER TOLD ME TODAY THAT SHE HAS A SADNESS IN HER HEAD THAT "WILL NOT DRAIN."

Wow.

Hang in there jrossi4r! Sending "good bedrest" and "easy birth" energy your way!

1 - IT'S LIKE THE END OF A RELATIONSHIP, THERE IS AN EMOTIONAL COMPONENT

2 - OMG JROSSI4R BABY AND SMART EXISTING KID

3 - WIERD THAT YOU WENT FOR A DENTAL TODAY TOO ESSEXJAN. I JUST KNOW THOUGHT I DIDN'T HAVE MY NEW DENTAL CARD AND WOULD HAVE TO GO TO THE OFFICE TO REPRINT ONE BUT I FOUND IT BUT NOW I'M DRESSED SO I'M OFF. I WONDER WHAT I CAN GET DONE BEFORE DENTIST. NEED GAS, HAIRCUT? SPECIAL STORE? GROCERY? I AM QUITE TWEAKED!

1. I JUST DROVE MY PARENTS AND LITTLE SISTER TO THE AIRPORT, AS THEY ARE FLYING DOWN TO DISNEYWORLD FOR A WEEK. BASTARDS! FRED THE DOG IS VERY SAD AND IS NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO SPENDING A WEEK ALL ALONE EXCEPT FOR TWO VISITS A DAY BY THE DOG SITTER. MY POOR POOKY :(

2. I NEED TO TAKE A SHOWER AND PACK UP ALL MY STUFF AND DRIVE BACK DOWN TO COLLEGE, BUT I CAN'T BE BOTHERED TO START. I'D MAKE BROWNIES TO PROCRASTINATE BUT I MADE THE LAST NIGHT OUT OF BOREDOM.
2b. MY BROWNIES CAME OUT AWFUL, HARD ON ONE END AND MUSHY ON THE OTHER. I PUT THEM IN THE OVEN THE WRONG WAY. MAYBE I'LL MAKE A NEW BATCH AFTER ALL....

3. MAN WHO HERE DOESN'T HAVE A VIBRATOR? I DON'T. BUT I'M A GUY. ANYONE ELSE?

3.MY DAUGHTER TOLD ME TODAY THAT SHE HAS A SADNESS IN HER HEAD THAT "WILL NOT DRAIN."

:( !! Aww! Best of luck to you and your little tikes.

(Also, does anyone else read all these in "yelling voices" in their heads?)

1. I'M SAD.

I read them in yelling voices out loud, which makes clandestine surfing in the office a bit difficult.

It's vagina/dentata day here on Mecha!

I'm breaking bed rest for a little bit to take her to ride her favorite carousel horse, Cookies. That should help the sad drain.

Come with us, MGL!

1. TO ME ALL SHOUTING THREADS SOUND LIKE OWEN MEANY. IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS, THEN I AM DISAPPOINTED. READ "A PRAYER FOR OWEN MEANY". DO NOT PASS GO.

2. HOW CAN SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS WRITING A NEW PURCHASING ORDER SYSTEM BE TAKING ME SO MUCH TIME.

3. MY S/O DREAMT I DROWNED IN THE PLUGHOLE LAST NIGHT AFTER RIDING A TINY BIKE AROUND THE SINK.
posted by seanyboy 19 February | 10:40
1. I HAVE READ THE OWEN MEANY BOOK AND DO RECOMMEND IT THO IT IS WEIRD AS HADES
2. I AM SPENDING THE DAY WITH DAUGHTER AND GRANDBUN BUT GRANDBUN HAS A LITTLE COLD (AND NEEDS HIS GRANMA HUGS)
3. MY HUSBANDS YEAR END BONUS WAS JUST ENOUGH TO KNOCK OFF A MAJOR STUPID BILL WITH NONE LEFT FOR ME TO BUY A DYSON VACUUM. GRRRRRRR!!!!

LIKE THAT? USE YOUR HTML-FU DUDE, IT'S A "BLOCKQUOTE" TAG. ENCLOSE THE WORD 'BLOCKQUOTE' IN TAGS AND IT WORKS LIKE ALL OTHER TAGS.

1. I GET THE OWEN MEANY THING BUT GOOD GOD DO I LOATHE JOHN IRVING BOOKS. ALMOST AS MUCH AS I LOATHE AYN RAND. SERIOUSLY.

2. CF12: NO. NOT ALL OF US. AND I'M NOT A GUY EITHER.

3. I SHOULD GO TO THE DENTIST TOO BUT I FEAR THE OWIE SCRAPY BITS. I'LL GO SOON I PROMISE.

mgl, i'm so, so sorry. if it helps, know that i was in the same place last year this time

1. I HAVE A COLD AND A HACKING COUGH. I BLAME MYSELF FOR GETTING THIS BY STAYING UP LATE EDITING WIKIPEDIA TOO MUCH.

2. I HAVE AN APARTMENT TO GET READY AND A TENANT ALREADY SLEEPING OVERNIGHT IN IT. THE LAST GORRAM TENANT TRASHED THE PLACE AND THERE ARE CABINET DRAWERS WITH NO RAILS ETC. AT LEAST THE CARPET STEAM CLEANED OK.

3. APPARENTLY THE ONLY WAY TO STOP MY CAT FROM WHINING ALL THE GORRAM TIME IS TO CANCEL HIS DIET.
posted by stilicho 19 February | 12:41

4. HOORAY FOR NEW FRIENDS!
5. AS MRS. TR33 IS GONE THIS WEEK, I SHALL BE EMPLOYING ANOTHER "NEW FRIEND" OF MY OWN (sugardvd.com - anyone have any feedback? [nsfw, it's a netflix for porn])
6. I'M TAKING OFF EARLY FROM WORK TO GO TO THE GYM AND THEN ENJOY TIME ALONE IN THE HOUSE BEFORE THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK WHEN THE LONELINESS WILL DRIVE ME MAD!
posted by tr33hggr 19 February | 13:20
1. I HAVEN'T BEEN TO THE DENTIST FOR SO LONG HE RETIRED.
2. I HAVE NEVER PAID FOR MY OWN VIBRATOR.
3. THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS I SHOULD BE DOING I AM NOT DOING.
posted by ethylene 19 February | 13:41
1) CATS TRIED TO GET ME UP AT 4:30AM AFTER I HADN'T REALLY TURNED IN UNTIL MIDNIGHT.
2) I AM TOO OLD TO BE DECEVING MYSELF WITH STUFF LIKE "IF YOU'RE IN THE BED, THAT COUNTS AS SLEEP". SLEEP IS SLEEP, THERE ARE NO SUBSTITUTES.
3)SEWER, GAS AND ELECTRIC IS VERY FUNNY SO FAR BUT I CAN'T GET FULLY INTO IT BECAUSE I HAVE TO FINISH THIS BIG FAT BOOK ON NORTH KOREA FIRST (IT'S OKAY: MARTIN'S NOT A PARTICULARLY GOOD WRITER BUT THE DEFECTOR INTERVIEWS ARE WORTH IT).
posted by Lentrohamsanin 19 February | 14:01
1. I REALLY REALLY NEED TO GO TO THE DENTIST BUT AM SCARED AS FUCK. ALSO, IT WILL COST LOTS OF MONEY THAT I WOULD RATHER SPEND ON PLANE TICKETS. BUT THERE'S A TINY TWINGE THAT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR A MONTH. OH GOD. OH GOD.

2. I ACTUALLY DON'T OWN A VIBRATOR, JUST A BIG BLACK DILDO I CALL MR. HAPPY.

3. I HAVE A NEW HAIRCUT AND IT TOTALLY ROCKS.

ALL THE GORRAM TIME

HEE HEE, YOU SAID "GORRAM"!
posted by Specklet 19 February | 14:12
1. I HAVE A CROWN PREP SCHEDULED SOME TIME THIS MONTH BUT I FORGET WHEN AND I AM HESITANT TO CALL AND FIND OUT.

2. I HAVE FINALLY GOTTEN ON TOP OF DENTAL HYGIENE AFTER YEARS OF BEING SHAMED AND BELITTLED BY THOSE SADISTIC HYGIENISTS. I FEEL ABOUT MY PERIO-AID (SFW BUT NO PRETTY) AS LFR AND ESSEXJAN FEEL ABOUT THEIR VIBRATORS.

3. I RENTED A FEW EPISODES OF QUEER AS FOLK OVER THE WEEKEND. WIFE COMPLAINED THAT SHE HAD NO DESIRE TO WATCH GAY SEX, OR ANY GRAPHIC DEPICTIONS IN ANY COMBINATIONS. UPON RETIRING, LATER EVENTS GAVE LIE TO HER DISINTEREST.

Specklet, get thee to a dentist. That twinge might be a root saying farewell, and while root canals are no fun they are NOTHING compared to the agony of going through a weekend with the nerve finally dying. Worst. Pain. Ever.
posted by tr33hggr 19 February | 14:45
1: YOU CALL THAT A SUITABLE AMOUNT OF MONEY? I'M DOING TWO PEOPLE'S JOBS - ONE OF WHICH IS MY MANAGER'S.
2: AND I THINK I KNOW THAT YOU KNOW YOU'RE TAKING THE PISS
3: I HAVE NEITHER A VIBRATOR OR A DILDO
posted by TheDonF 19 February | 14:54
No shouting here. I have the day off (thank you Presidents).

1) My car finally started after three days of not starting. The sun is out and the snow is starting to melt.

2) Day off means carnitas and beer for lunch.

3) Monday night is the good sample night at Whole Foods. They actually cook stuff and have beer and wine sampling. I like this.

2. I HAVE NEVER PAID FOR MY OWN VIBRATOR.

WHO BUYS YOU VIBRATORS?
I NEVER BOUGHT A WOMAN A VIBRATOR, AND MY EX SPECIALIZED IN SENDING ME OUT ON EMBARRASSING ERRANDS.
OR DID YOUR OLD DENTIST GIVE THEM TO PATIENTS WHO WERE GOOD?

note to self: next Christmas, vibrators for all bunnies, except male bunnies who request otherwise.

I *ahem* know someone who got one as a gift for her first Mother's Day and still can't decide if that gesture was awesome or completely misguided.

1. I JUST PAID $8.95 FOR 60 MINUTES OF WIRELESS 'NET ACCESS AT CAIRNS AIRPORT JUST SO I COULD SEE WHAT YOU WERE ALL UP TO
2. I HAVE A TWO-HOUR WAIT BEFORE MY FLIGHT TO WEIPA (well, one hour now, but it was two when I arrived)
3. I DON'T HAVE A VIBRATOR (nor do I want one, but thanks anyway wendell)

Yes, I read all the shouting threads in a shouting voice in my head. It helps to drown out all the other voices.
