You're thankful for LOSING Madden 2002? If it was me, I would seriously consider performing hara-kiri. At least it's less painful and quicker, to boot.

No, I'm thankful that I got to play a serious tournament with my step-kids.

I don't care about winning, ever.

Unless I'm playing Coutner-Strike against those guys at work, who use the aimbot.

Bastards.

In no particular order...

So how many people got wasted playing the WWDN drinking game to THIS one?

I love this website. I really do. I just got back from hanging out with some really great friends and I am totally intoxicated... (this is taking forever for me to write cuz i keep hitting the wrong buttons) ... my list would have alcohol and my great friends on it, but i couldn't probably manage with the actual numbers. does that make any sense? i dunno. but i love this website (reminiscent of the times when you're drunk and say "I love you, man!") so yeah. thats all. i'm going to pass out now.

Ok, WWDN drinking game?

I HATE missing things. Goddammit.

- bagels and cream cheese
- living in da USA. Life ain't too bad here.
- Ewan MacGregor's bottom
- hugs
- movies so crappy they're silly
- water
- technology that works

Never mind, found the drinking game.

I can't read.

Dear Uncle Spudnuts,

Who are you thankful too?

just curious

Love,

Bluesman

7 Things I'm Thankful For Today (Saturday):

* Seeing my fiancé’s face when he got home from his first field trip with his Marine Biology class. The man was GLOWING! He talked my ear off for three hours ("... and the Sun Starfish uses those suction cups, which are actually a part of its gill structure, to remove parasites...") and I loved every minute of it.
* My dad had surgery on 1/28 and he's finally home after being in the hospital for nearly a month.
* The love of my family, friends and my guy.

This really is a great idea Wil, it really makes you think....well, it makes ME think at least...

Do I have to think of seven.

1 That I won't have to live with Dale either next semester.
2 For my wonderful Fiance
3 Spring break in two weeks and I can see my man.
4 Physics and Chemistry no matter how much they annoy me.
5 A job since my man has none and it worries the crap out of me.
6 My engagement ring
7 Stephen King because he writes good books.

Patti, honey, if he ain't got a job, don't marry him until he gets one! I understand that this sort of thing happens to lots of people and it's not their fault, but also there are people like my friend Helen. For two years she has worked 2 jobs while her husband sat at home on the couch, not even looking for a job. He watches tv while she busts her ass to support him and two boys, and he will not even look after the boys after school while she is at work. So make sure you look after yourself.
I know, none of my business, and he could be a perfectly decent guy who's really looking for a job and is just having a tough time. (I hope so, and I wish you both luck.) I just can't help being nosy.

I love that you do this.. thank you
