mmm chocolaty porridge, I do have been doing this for ages, I also sprinkle some PB2 on top and then slice some banana on.  Most of the people I know think I am totally nuts when I tell them I have chocolate oatmeal

I used to kill them then pick them up and chase my little brother round the house with the dead carcass, thought it was hilarious.......for some reason he seems to have a spider phobia.....

A couple of the ex bfs used to scream and get ME to come and kill the spiders, which I found quite amusing

can't say as I really have any phobias

I own a big dog

I can kill spiders all on my lonesome

I can bait a hook with a worm when I go fishing

I can drive over bridges and in fact was involved in a head on collision on one when I was a delivery driver

Flying is boring, the only good bits are take off, landing, and air turbulence....ohhh and those air pockets which make the plane drop a couple hundred feet in seconds! those are fun.

Heights --- been bungee jumping, done the ejection seat (reverse bungee) so they aren't an issue either. also love coasters and want to go parachuting

Needles- never liked them but at one point had to have blood tests every month to check levels so got used to them

Clowns while usually unfunny are not scary to me

Cockroaches while disgusting still crunch good when squashed

no such thing as perfect for me like a lot of others it depends on the person in the body but I prefer tall men that are muscular but not bodybuilding standards, not that I don't find that asthetically pleasing.  Must admit I really like a nice chest and arms.  I think Kyle Schmid of Blood Ties tv series major hot picture of him here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyle_Schmid not that you can see his body.  Don't like hairy bodies either......ewww.

just goes to prove that majority of us aren't happy with what we've got.  If you are larger chested you wish they were smaller if you are small/flatter chested you wish they were bigger.....

I don't have a tape measure handy but my bras have padding and gel filled thingys in so probably about 50% padding!!

CHEESE, especially melted cheese (cheese on toast, tortilla chips with cheese, cheese on crackers, melted cheese on broc and cauli, cheese and pickle sandwhich on fresh baguette.....)

Granola......dry, with milk, with yogurt it doesn't matter

and Crumble topping, don't really want the fruit bit just the topping

Proper american (NY) cheescake not the other ikcy stuff they have here in the UK.

I probably get about 10 odd servings a day.  I have a banana with breakfast everyday and either shrooms and onions (if it's an egg white day) or berries (if it's an oatmeal day) then I have carrots as a snack, perhaps a plum or apple, then tomato, cuke, peppers and beans at lunch, and an broccoli, cauliflower and assorted other veggies at dinner (brussel sprouts - which I prefer frozen, savoy cabbage, green beans, Rutabaga, Squash, peas, zuccini, soya beans, chick peas etc).  I prefer fresh in most instances and don't count potatoes as a veg but as a starch/carb.

The Lounge Cooking Mishapps!!!!!!! Sep 25 2007

many, many moons ago I was round a friends and we decided some popcorn would be nice, however there was no microwave popcorn in the house.  So she decided that regular popcorn would be the same right?  wrong......there was this little black pile in the microwave and all the lining of the microwave had melted and was hanging down like melted cheese!!

My Mom was making french fries once and fell asleep on the couch with the hot oil in a pan on the stove, I went into the kitchen to find flames leaping out of the pot and engulfing the oven hood.  Woke her up and we managed to get a lid on the pot and then it out the front door into the pouring rain.

When I was about 8, I used to bake cookies (all my friends were so impressed that I was allowed to use the kitchen) and I misread the recipe and put half a cup of salt instead of half a tsp, I was mortified that I'd screwed up.

My dog can hear an egg crack from the other end of the house from a dead sleep and suddenly show up in the kitchen however, if you'd have called him he'd have had selective hearing

Every time after he has a drink of water he lets out a large belch.....I don't need a man in my life as the dog belches, farts and snores lol

the fact that most days at work I have to don a big thick sweater on top of whatever I'm wearing as they have the air con cranked up so high it's like a freakin fridge in my office, I get so cold my hands hurt and they try to tell me it's set to 22 degrees, 22 my a$$, more like 16, I mean come on it's not like it's bloody tropical outside and there is even a need for the air con to be on, what's wrong with opening a window, which you can't do by the way because they are screwed shut!! isn't that like some kind of health and safety violation? what if there's a fire and you couldn't get out the doors either end

slow, dithering old people that are always in front of me in the queue, especially at the supermarket on the weekend....come on people you've had all damn week while I've been at work to get this stuff done why do you insist on doing it when all of us workin folk are off and it's the busiest time.......
