Post Punk Kitchen Forum

Every once in a while (like even less than once a year) I'll think that I want a cigarette (usually when I've had too much to drink). Same thing. Next day I'm like, OH MY GOD! Why did I do that! The smell! The phlegm!

right now mr T and the kid are trying to set up netflix on the wii. netflix is my spouse's new obsession, for reasons i cannot understand (namely, the $150/month we already pay for 2!#$)¨*Q#$¨)* simple cable). FC needs no more distractions, she already has trouble getting he work done. but it looks like i have little to fear......the two of them are bumbling so badly, and unable to get anything done, that i am biting my tongue here. i am making mango pickle and very carefully not getting involved in this foolishness.

I hate where I live. I want to move back to Vancouver.

My husband appears to be ill or injured, but he won't tell me what's wrong. This has happened before, and it's incredibly annoying. You'd think after being together for 4 1/2 years he'd be able to tell me when he's ill (even if it is butt-related, which I suspect).

Sorry, rachell37 :( Look on the bright side - he could be like my husband, who doesn't know how to keep anything to himself. I know more than I ever wanted or needed to about his butt.

I hear you. We once had a weekend in Madrid, and it was only hand way through I realised my husband was suffering with piles. He had still never owned up to it, but he was jumping out of his seat every other minute and wincing. Why not just tell me?

I just quit like three weeks ago, and already it's nasty. My boyfriend smokes and every time he comes back inside, I can't handle sitting next to him.

Hah! The one bathroom thing worries me, but we're all working different hours and I shower at night half the time.

That's frustrating!

I recommend trying the app Evernote. I use it and LOVE it. It's a free download, and works on basically every platform ever (and has a web client). Some great things: it syncs across any devices that you have it installed on, so I have it on my home computer, my work computer, and my iPhone. So no matter which device I use to update, say, my unit plan, I will have it all on my devices. You can also install the "web clipper," which is my favorite thing for my recipe collection. You just click the icon and it copies any amount of a webpage into a note, including a link to the original source. So I usually clip recipes and save them into my recipe notebook. You can tag things, do notebooks and sub-notebooks, and you can even share notebooks with other people (my mom and my bf also have access to my recipe notebook). It's really useful and super easy to use. And again, free! And since it's an app, it doesn't go down, which is nice.

Anyone take tramadol?

I have before! I didn't like the way it made me feel, real twitchy and maybe heart palpitations

That's what the pain dr gave me. Hopefully it works well.

Oh yeah, I forking love that stuff. It was the only pain med I could ever take that didn't have side effects and didn't turn addictive. My pain levels are finally under control enough without it that I stopped renewing the prescriptions, but I took it as-needed for quite a while, whenI had a bunch of different pain-inducing conditions one right after the other.

That's encouraging!

I ran out of things to pack my stuff in!!!

NOOO! I was on a roll! I need more boxes stat!

I think my foot is broken.

Oh no! I hope it's okay and you don't have to walk anywhere any time soon :(


I found more boxes!

I need some boxes too. Though I'll probably just end up throwing everything in trash bags last minute like I usually do.

I've just spent an hour scrubbing the bedroom floor from when I accidentally painted it red, and wondering why there is broken glass glued to the floor?? (I think I dropped something and just left it there).

Does anyone here have lovebirds? Or even do you know anything about lovebirds? I have specific questions:

Do lovebirds talk? (i.e., like parrots) And if they talk, do they mimic comprehensible words, whole phrases, one syllable--to what extent if they do talk?

Do they sing/whistle/vocalize at all? If so, what is the nature of their vocalizations? (in addition to or whether or not they talk like parrots)

I have Wiki'd lovebirds briefly and didn't really get anything on the above information. Also, if anyone has a webpage link that explains maybe the habits of lovebirds (male/female) in pairs and how they behave with each other and stuff like that, I would be grateful!

They aren't great talkers. I believe some males will talk a bit, but I don't think it's super typical. They do chatter and chatter quite a bit.

I'll see if I can find a source for you.

Here is some forum chatter: http://www.tailfeathersnetwork.com/comm ... s-talking!!

I assume you are asking for your writing? Watching some YouTube videos might help.

Also, do you need a lovebird specifically, or just a small parrot? Perhaps a different species would work better?

Moos fell asleep on my lap, and I need to go to work. Also, I dreamt about him. My cat is the best. <3

TEN ESSAYS LEFT TO GRADE to meet tonight's quota. I have done 30. Just ten more. That leaves 60 to do over the next two days (plus 110 quizzes, a stack of creative writing stuff, and lesson planning).

AAAHHHH. I can do this. I can do this.

I took it for the first time recently and it did literally nothing for me - no big side effects, no numbing of pain. but I need a pretty heavy painkiller to deal with pain despite generally being pretty sensitive to drugs in general..so hopefully it's more effective on you. beyond that, I've heard it knocks people out, so be careful about driving/heavy equipment/etc!

I took tramadol after I'd been in constant pain for a week with my gallstones. I took it out of desperation because I hadn't slept in 6 days! It took the edge off enough for me to sleep. I was lucky I didn't have to take it again.

I just really want to be sleeping now. Really really.

count sheeps!
