The Lounge Article on Gift Cards at the Holidays: What do you think? Nov 13 2007

In my family, xmas is all about family.  And we like to give each other well thought out gifts, but gift cards can be appropriate.  I travel to my mom's house and I can't take back a bunch of gifts in my luggage.  That way, I can still get what I need and like without worrying if I'm going over my limit with my luggage.

The Lounge A question for math fans. Oct 15 2007

I basically just used:

time = distance/mph (various forms of this).

I love math and always have, so thanks for challenge!

for the 12 mile part:

Faster: 21.08 mph

Slower:  18.76 mph

 

for the 5 mile part (assuming that the average speed was 19.3 for 61 miles)

Faster:  24.19 mph

Slower:  18.06 mph

I'm fairly certain I did everything correctly.  If you would like me to type out the math, just let me know.

 

The Lounge Are we promiscuous? Sep 27 2007

I would definitely have been described as a "slut" by most of you and that is fine.  I went for 3 1/2 years without a boyfriend because I didn't want to be in a relationship with any of the men I had met.  During that time I had casual sex and I liked it.  I'm also not afraid to admit it.  Why should I deny one of the most basic instincts and urges just because at this time society frowns upon it?

And I didn't "show poor judgement and lack of relationship skills".  If I had bounced from boyfriend to boyfriend when I knew that I didn't really like them all that much, then I would have shown those qualities.  But I knew what I wanted and waited for it.

Sex is a natural act that isn't dependent on love (it is better though if you are, I'm definitely not going against that).  And I do think that people need to use the proper protection though. 

But why shouldn't someone have sex everyday?  It is perfectly acceptable (and understood) if you are in a relationship.  So why is it so horrible/frowned upon when you aren't?  So if someone wants to go out and have casual sex with other people then I say more power to them.

Bye Carrie and Glin, have a nice evening.

I can also work from home for OT.  I can pretty much work as many hours as I want.  But I also like to have a life outside of work.

Jules, I think Ben would like it to only last about 1 day.

After all, fruit can go bad pretty quickly.

Not at all, except I would would want to add a basket of fries to that.  And maybe some chocolate ice cream to finish it off.

I thought that hobbits have really big feet for their size.

I have narrow feet that are slightly big for how tall I am.  But they are narrow.

Bf wears a 13.  Sometimes I will put on his shoes because they make me feel like I have small, girly feet.  And because it looks funny.

I wear anywhere from a 9 1/2 - 11.  My feet are narrow though, so I have a hard time finding shoes that fit the length and the width.

I just tell people that it means it is harder for people to knock me down.

I dated a guy that was 6'8" once.  It didn't work out, but not because of his height.

Carrie, I also have large, monster feet (especially for my average 5'4" height).

I used to wear regular pants.  Now I have to wear petite and they are still too long, so the pants have definitely gotten longer.

Yeah, I used to go the music route too, but I have the same problem as SC.  Hence the actual crying or the squirrels.

I also sometimes go to the park to watch the squirrels play.  You can't be sad when watching squirrels (at least I can't).

Crap!!!!  I forgot.  Thanks HK.  Sorry everyone who is at work.  My friend actually sent it to me and forgot to mention that part.  I scrolled down to read the article without the picture showing, so I didn' think about it.
