Random Thread of Naughty Thoughts
I'm wondering why the oldies station on the radio, with a library of 40 years of music, plays the same songs over and over."It's a shaaaame, the way your messin round with your man" every day at 5?
Brenda... im wondering why ALL radio stations play the same ones over and over... regardless of genre... I like when the local stations have thier special hours... we have one called Decades on sunday nites here, I listen to on my way home from work.. the DJ pulls out all the cheesy one hit wonders from the 80's.... and some of the best tunes... Stevie B, Milli Vanilli, Mc Hammer, Cure, Expose, ... he knows how to mix it up!
Thanks Petra. I so had brain farts last night. plus I only use the , & . when typing. I was looking on the number bar <:)
The best way to get the music you want is to carry your CD's w/you. I get sick of the same songs over & over on the radio.
but I get sick my cds after a time too....
i love my Sirus.. with all the channels, I am bound to find something to listen too.... and tons of new up and commers too!!

I love Sirius too. I have found out about so many new artists that way, especially on the Coffee House. I have little patience for regular radio anymore.
We have a station in Chicago, which is on 99.9, that does not play any of the same songs in one day. No repeats... I love this station because it has a mix of everything!
Angela is that Jack? I seem to always find the same song when flipping through. I do love the loop, new fresh music & the Q101 there are two others but I don't know their names.
The worst thing my dog ingested was a whole (large)jar of vaseline. I cannot begin to tell you how horrible her bowel movements were or what they did to the lawn in the height of summer! I still shudder thinking about it!
My kitty, Talullah, was being beaten by my big fat chicken of a cat, Lily, and ran through the wrought iron bars of the fence around the porch. Lily pursued but got stuck in the bars (she's so fat) and had to go through the gate. She then through up on the doormat and Talullah started to eat it. So I guess their friends now. I've just cleaned up and I feel really really sick.
I think I need to start avoiding this thread *gagging*I'm just thankful I have no pets to clean up after.
Haha Jackie. I like your cat's name Petra. I love seeing what other people name their cats. Flash, Lucky and Mush are a few cats I know. Sometimes I wish I gave Clara a more orginal name.
I named our cat Guinness (like the beer) because I brought him home without my husband knowing, so I figured he would approve if he was named after his favorite drink!
Saved by Grace, you can leave it. I think there were others that were worse...like the rat/mole stories. lol.(G)emma the Emu...the name suits you well. LOL.
At times this thread does get rather gross but it is also engrossing.
(G)Emma - when my kid was two and a half we got a cat whom he named Mrs. Rosie Wheatley. We don't know anyone of that name and by the time he was old enough to explain himself he'd forgotten why he called her that. Our other cat, the late great Sinbad, he named Sinbad the Sailor Cat Boom Boom. I hope he grows out of this by the time he has kids of his own!
LOL...Petra those cat names are very original. I would name my fish (only pets I had beside a rabbit) after people I knew depending on the personality of the animal and the person they reminded me of.
Fish have personality, Jackie????
Just kidding. We have a goldfish we won from a carnival 7 years ago (it was itty bitty then, its HUGE now), and he is quite the personality, actually. he has this little 'thing' he does when he knows he is going to be fed.... he swims up and down in the far left corner of the tank, straight up to the water, then straight down to the gravel, and back up and back down till i sprinkle the food in. It almost reminds me of the way a dog will wag thier tail when they are happy.....

I am so excited!! My best friend got us tickets to see A CHORUS LINE tonight for my birthday! It's in Greenville at The Peace Center...I can not wait!
Have a great time Ann! My best friend lives just outside Greenville in Greer SC so I've been there several times-we always have a great time.My random thought is this-why does everything either break or run out at the same time? The underwire just broke on two of my bras, I'm out of mineral face powder, blush, shaving cream, lotion and almost out of curl cream. I didn't purchase all of these things at once and yet they're all gone at the same time. It's a conspiracy!
Thanks everyone. My bday was 9/29, but she got the tickets for tonight. I am so excited! I never go anywhere. I really just stay at home and read. Or go to football practice, and read. Everynight... so this is a big deal for me! I have been watching utube videos all day about A CHORUS LINE so I will be ready to sing along! lol
Joanie, sounds like you are having a tough run of it. I would tend to blame it on the elves. They are trickly little fellows.
Random thought....I just got back from chaparoning my daughter's Kindergarten class to the fire house and a pumpkin farm.
I'm exhausted.
The little girls fought and tattled on each other the whole way in the van.
I have a splitting head ache and all I want to do is curl up somewhere and take a nap
I took today off thinking this would be fun and I'd be doing something for the school...which I did.... But it was so hectic.
I'm not sure if I'll be chaparoning for Kindergarten again this school year.
Don't think I have the energy.
Kellie, Everytime I go on a field trip I wind up with a headache. Don't worry, once you feel better, you will look over the pictures and think about the wonderful day you had:)
So two weeks ago I had really horrible service at one of my favorite restuarants, Friendlys, so when I got home I went on the website to fill out a complaint form. I thought that they wouldnt get back to me, but like literally 30 seconds ago I noticed that there was a letter from friendlys sitting in front of me. And lookeehere, I have an apology letter and a $10 gift card. Thats very happy-making.
I just got back from seeing A CHORUS LINE (and the first thing I do is check on my friends on gr's...lol) and it was wonderful!!! It was my first big musical production, but will noy be my last. WICKED is coming in 2010, and i am so there, God willing!!
Thanks Ann!I appreciate the comment. I feel guilty for feeling the way I do. I did not feel this way when I chaperoned my son's field trips.
These little girls made me crazy!!
Haha, Melissa, book ADD...I like the new ilness.Since I aw a lovely picture of white chocolate ysterday...I feel so weak and instead of taking a big piece, I keep taking little pieces since yesterday. Or maybe it is because since two days ago, every afternoon from about two till half five I am hopping my boyfriend will make me my first white hot chocolate of the year..and he hasn't yet...
I am just going to get another piece!!!
...why don't all the letters I touch come also on the screen??????
Ann WICKED is the best. I loved it. It is leaving Chi-town. :(
Kellie: That's field trips! I don't like going because little fights always break out between girls. Oh and the Jr High boys-they need to get their heads out of the gutter. I feel so bad for teachers! I can't imagine dealing with this every day!
You are so right.These teachers should be nominated for sainthood!!
Today's random thought....
My daughter was high scorer again at her soccer game. She scored like 5 goals. The coach is starting to tell her to start pacing to her team mates (she is such a ball hog) and he made her play goalie 2 periods today Ha!
My son had his best hit ever today. He clocked out to center field where it bounced and hit the fence. It was a great double! I had chills. So proud of him!! :)
Took my daughter to Disney on ice this afternoon. Great show! It's amazing how much money I spent on parking, a snowcone in a Ariel cup and this glow in the dark spinny thing that had tinker bell on the top! Oh yeah..and some popcorn.
My day is just about over. Phew! Where did it go!
Ann I'm glad you enjoyed Chorus Line. I saw Phantom of the Opera in London last year and was knocked out. I don't like musicals but that was brilliant. I would like to see Chorus Line too.
Random thought: steam cleaned my carpet today & my house smells so good. I like clean carpets.
I just found out that my ex boyfriend likes my best friend and that his best friend also likes her.And my ex told me that I cannot tell her because he isnt going to ask her out since his best friend likes her.
WHAT THE HELL?!
Ixan...that would pobrably an amazing trick to play...but yeah...they're all awsome, just pissing me off a bit.There are so many reasons why I should be asleep right no...
1. I have to be at mass by 9 (Or I atleast need to get there before Fr. Collins does his sermon)
2. I have an hour of RCIA after mass
3. I have to volunteer for a ton of time tomorrow
4. I'm most likely going to be out until midnight at a nightclub with some friends....
...but as it stands there is one reason why I'm "religously" not allowed to sleep right now.
Random thought: It's suppose to be 75 today! Yeah!
