Purple (purpletan) | 1221 comments I'm a day to day person so today I was rather irritated and just happy to be home to my kids sloppy kisses. :)

The person below me watches the news everyday/every night.


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments I usually flip on the news every morning when I first wake up. From 5:30 to 5:45 I catch the salient headlines and weather for the day. I do an internet headline search sometime throughout the day but that's it for me.


The person below me has not bought a book in July.

The person below me loves summer B'days!


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments sure. My sister (29th next week) is the only one in our family though. Everyone else is between December and March (My parents, her parents, one of my sisters, her two brothers, our two kids, the two of us)



Christmas in July


message 711: by KimKirt (new)

KimKirt | 1638 comments Uh no, only because I have yet to figure it out. Am I supposed to shop now and give now? Shop now and store it until Christmas? What the heck? My son was asking me to explain it and I told him there is just one Christmas and it's in December.

Loaded questions from kids who don't need to know things right now (like, Mommy, how do the puppies get IN the dogs belly).

The person below me has a secret crush on a guy she hasn`t met


message 719: by KimKirt (last edited Jul 21, 2010 03:07AM) (new)

KimKirt | 1638 comments Nope, I'm over any of that. Besides, the one guy I REALLY had a crush on that I stalked for two years, I finally asked him for a 'real' kiss and it was like kissing my brother! Cured my crush for good. Bleh. LOL! Burst my bubble but at least I moved on!

The person below me has been married for more than 10 years.


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments Almost 18 years here. All of it a state of bliss. (OK maybe that's pushing it but we are the happiest couple I know.)


The person below me has been to a museum in the past year.


message 721: by KimKirt (new)

KimKirt | 1638 comments Nope. We have many gem museums here, but to me a rock is a rock, they bore me to tears. I can't tell you the number of air museums my husband has dragged me into (not in the past year tho). Eh, a plane is a plane. He, however, is enthusiastic enough for the lot of us.

The person below me secretly enjoys some of the shows their kids watch.


message 722: by Penney (new)

Penney (pschoener) | 3553 comments There's no secret about it. I'm a shameless 'toon hussy.

The person below me still hasn't seen Toy Story!


message 723: by KimKirt (new)

KimKirt | 1638 comments Nope, saw it. Also saw Despicable Me this past weekend which I LOVED.

The person below me actually is enjoying the heat wave.


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments Not me. I'm a fat guy. Don't you know we melt in the heat?



The person below me is reading a book that makes them laugh.


message 725: by KimKirt (new)

KimKirt | 1638 comments Not currently. I just finished another Linda Howard last night. Really good, but not a laughable one.

The person below me is having trouble figuring out which book to start next.


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments Seems like that is always the case. I still manage to start one within an hour or two of finishing the last though.


The person below me feels pretty today.


message 727: by Penney (new)

Penney (pschoener) | 3553 comments I feel pretty everyday! She says in her rumpled pjs and bed head.

The person below me needs something fun to do.


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments *so glad to hear it Penney. I believe we should call you Pretty Penney (perhaps and an honor to Buckaroo Bonzai) from this point forward.


I'm always looking for something fun to do. However, not having anything doesn't stop me from finding fun. He says on the recliner with laptop and book in hand.


The person below me is going to the library today.


message 729: by KimKirt (new)

KimKirt | 1638 comments I am! Have two books on hold I have to get.

The person below me doesn't have a laptop.


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments Sorry, I'm using it now.


The person below me has played the PS3 game, Brutal Legend with Jack Black.


message 731: by KimKirt (new)

KimKirt | 1638 comments Uh, don't even have a PS3. I can barely play Mario Kart on the Wii, so nope.

The person below me has to have their kid show them how to use electronic stuff.


message 732: by Penney (new)

Penney (pschoener) | 3553 comments What is that? I love Jack Black. I also love Pretty Penney

The person below is having trouble thinking.


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments Nope, I don't need my kids to operate electronic devices and I'm thinking fairly clearly this morning.


The person below me has experienced schadenfreude recently.


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments *Note: Brutal Legend is one of the funnest games I've played in a long time. It's rated M for... EVERYTHING! Jack Black plays a roadie worshiping to the gods of heavy metal. It makes me laugh really hard. The boys have decided that it is inappropriate for my wife to play the game so we are keeping it from her for now.

*Note 2: Upon further research, the name of Dr. Buckaroo Bonzai's love interest is Penny Priddy and not Penney Pretty. Although it really does sound the same when they say it.


message 735: by Kathy Anne (new)

Kathy Anne (kathyanne) Haven`t that I know but who knows what evil lurks in the minds of.......

The person below is having their coffee


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments I don't drink coffee, but I had a nice breakfast with one of my son's a couple of hours ago.



The person below me lives in a small town (less than 50,000 people)

The person below me is majorly disgruntled about something.


message 738: by Sej (new)

Sej (sejrose) | 1647 comments Heck ya! Ugh the things we consumers get screwed over for!

The person below me wants to hit someb-errr-thing.


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments I'm a lover not a fighter. I rarely want to hit somebo-errr-thing. Sej, hopefully I am not the target of your fury even though I was picking on you this morning.


The person below me has a suntan.


message 740: by Sej (new)

Sej (sejrose) | 1647 comments A lil, but I'm naturally tanned. And no you are not the target of my fury. You are a teddy bear compared to the ones I wanna throw off the face of earth.

The person below me has an office window.


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments Home office? Two windows. Studio office? One window.

The person below me made one of their children cry today.


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments *Note - So how did I make my 17 YO son cry today? Well we were at the library. I was asking the librarian for a romance novel involving an alien. She recommended The Host by Stephanie Meyer. My son knows my feelings on Twilight and I looked up over the seated librarian and caught his eye. We both smiled. That was when it got tough. "It's a big one." the librarian said. I locked eyes with my son and tried to wipe all expression from my face. Yes, it would be a perfect place for a 'That's what she said' joke, but neither of us was going to make one. The librarian continued, "If it's going to be a big one, I'd better enjoy it." I bit the inside of my cheek to keep from giggling while I heard my son wimper. "Sometime I look at the size and just put it down because it's too big for me to enjoy." I bit the inside of my cheek harder. The wimpering was more noticable. "Other times I just jump right in and it goes down like butter." I met my son's eyes and couldn't keep the smile off my face any longer. A whine escaped from him and a tear started down his cheek. He took off for the front doors. "It doesn't look like it's here now but I'm sure I could get it in for you." A cackling laugh broke free from my son who'd only made it about 10' before the last sentence came out. I could taste blood from biting my cheek. We had to stand outside for a few minutes to stop laughing.

I know juvenile humor and you probably had to be there to find this funny but we did.


message 743: by Sej (new)

Sej (sejrose) | 1647 comments Wow, there should be a "that's what he said" but it just doesn't have the same impact as the other.

Ok I didn't realize you were that old.


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments Sej, I know 41 is one step away from the wheelchair. But don't worry, I still act 14.

So how about it? Did the person below me make their child cry today?


message 745: by Penney (new)

Penney (pschoener) | 3553 comments I'm in tears! Literally!


message 746: by Penney (new)

Penney (pschoener) | 3553 comments Ok, I'm better now. No, I haven't made any of my girls cry today, but the days not over.

The person below me really appreciates juvenile humor


message 747: by KimKirt (last edited Jul 21, 2010 02:53PM) (new)

KimKirt | 1638 comments Holy crap, you guys think 41 is old? I'm 45! Yes, I have been getting junk mail from The Scooter Store lately (I'm serious here, and talk about making someone laugh until you cry, my husband and son LOVE each time I get something from them . . . gotta get off THAT dang mailing list).

Jim, that is SO funny, I swear, I would have busted out laughing if I was behind you guys in line.

We took our stepson (who is 23) out to dinner for his birthday last month and we were all just chit chatting after dinner, in no hurry, and the bill had been in one of those holder things on the table. Well, the waitress comes back and picks it up and my husband goes "Sorry. My card's not in there yet." and she goes "Oh! No, I'm the one who's sorry, I have a tendency to grab things prematurely!" Well, I thought my stepson was going to lose it. She walked away and we died laughing (with my 8 year old going "What's so funny?") LOL!

So yes, big Thumbs up to juvenile humor!

The person below me doesn't mind sexual innuendos.


message 748: by Sej (new)

Sej (sejrose) | 1647 comments Well see he mentioned that he had a 17yr old so since in my world ppl aren't having kids until they are in their 30s I thought he was like in his 50s. But he's a "youngun."

And please anything anyone says can be seen as a sexual innuendo:

Example: Penney says "I'm in tears! Literally!" - Um hmm

Just saying - sorry Penney!

No I don't mind sexual innuendos, so thumbs up!

The person below me almost burned down the house at some point in their lives.


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments I burned down a big old oak in the backyard (darn fireworks) does that count?

The person below me will be without internet for most of the day today.


message 750: by KimKirt (new)

KimKirt | 1638 comments Not unless it goes down at work, which has been known to happen. Makes for a very long day. Hey, I actually have to use it to WORK too. LOL!

The person below me is making something in a crockpot today.
