    What an over achiever Hahaha try keeping them wanting just a little. Although I personallydon't do it because I'd be afraid of getting fired. But you could try it

    I just did this AGAIN. I'm drowning. Worked every day since last Monday and will have a three-quarter day tomorrow and a full Saturday.

    My girlfriend bought some emergen-c. I take a multivitamin every day, along with extra C, E, magnesium and zinc. My belief is not that vitamins are needed in massive quantities, but that we really don't know what each individual's needs are. I am a 250 lb male that exercises intensely regularly. My needs are different than a sedentary 125 pounder. So I take enough to hopefully get what I need, and it's not expensive. I pointed out that what she is taking is basically a flavored powder form of what I take every day. I also pointed out that it might be better to take vitamins preventatively rather than to wait until she is sick. She did not appreciate that advice.

    Plan meticulously for that day when your offspring needs to learn the facts of life.

    Yes...thats' what my mother used...and the 2nd too. It's very good.
    My mom is a L&D nurse...so she started on us fairly early...and just let it build slowly. (hell, I attended the childbirth prep classes she taught)
    She emphasized awareness, discretion and consideration...but never denial.

    Very few fights are actually worth picking once you remove immediate and emotional responses.

    But if you are going to pick the fight, make sure you know ahead of time who will win.

    Then why do you always pick a fight with me when you know you're not going to win?

    Aww, 'bless your heart' as they say in the South, to someone who doesn't know what they are talking about.

    Shit or get off the pot.

    I don't understand people who bitch continually...but never do anything about it.

    Don't always be The Smartest Person In The Room.

    The line between impressing people and annoying them is very thin and shifts frequently.

    Nothing is really ever finished.
    You can simply remove yourself from the process and wish others the best.

    For most people...do NOT go onto the image section of Bing news
    when it's reporting on the concentration camps of gay men in Chechnya
    :eek::eek::eek:
    Chechnya Gay Men

    I sympathize...I truly do, but geez. :rolleyes:

    Sometimes that great idea you have? Maybe it isn't so great after all...

    I need to look more closely to all the Japanese characters in ToddlerSquirrel's books!
