  1. I dated a professional soccer player once (yes, for some reason I dated a 3 professional athletes when I was late high-school/early college) and he literally picked me up for a date and then spit into a cup that was in his cup holder SICK! I guess it's not just the baseball players that it's popular with. He did NOT get any nookie (which in my at-the-time virgin terms means a goodnight kiss) Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  2. Funny...now that you mention it, I don't think I've ever heard/seen him sneeze any other time but day This is more weird than I thought Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  3. Now there's a fruit I can't get into. And the nuts who put salt on it???? Weird! Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  4. I think that's everyone's story---especially kids like me who were born in the 80s and all the Jaws' movies were on TBS ALL the time. I think that's why that's my closest thing to a tangible fear (see recent shark thread). But, as mentioned---it's NEVER stopped me from swimming out to the bouy, surfing or anything. Admitedly, though, sometimes I'll think I saw something and get the f*ck out of the water When this happens I go "Whhhooooaaaaaah!" and run/swim/flap back to shore and Billy laughs his ass off everytime It's REALLY easy to tell a shark fin from a dolphin fin though. And it's hilarious when townies & tourists don't know the difference and yell shark at the sight of a dolphin Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  5. We've seen quite a few sting rays, too, but that's typical. Same for the dolphins---we see them all the time. Actually, once when Billy was surfing in a storm (I was pissed, but to his credit there wasn't any lighting that I saw) I was seated on the beach (the only idiot in the rain) with my umbrella watching him and the boys. Dolphins were out surfing with them. It was an AMAZING sight. Even more amazing was one jumping RIGHT OVER BILLY'S HEAD while he was riding a wave So memorable--I wish I'd had the camera, but I still see it in my head clear as day. Anywho---I feel safer when dolphins are around, also, but truth-be-told, it doesn't mean sharks are or are not in the area. A dolphin WILL fight off a shark, but I dont' think I'll be counting on that with my life any time soon. We kayak around and the dolphins will come w/in feet of our kayak. I LOVE it. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  6. I 110% agree. While sharks are the closest thing to a fear I have (never kept me from swimming in the ocean, so long as a surfer was out farther than me--I figured the shark would eat him first and I'd have time to swim in to shore). I also scuba dive, kayak, you name it--even seen a shark diving. But, they still scare me a bit. I have still, however, singed COUNTLESS petitions against shark fishing. Blues have even been known to die after they're caught & released from the trauma. FINNING is EVEN WORSE! It's terrible. People don't know how many species are now on the endangered list or extinct all together. Sometimes "man" pisses me off, too. We'll rant together on this one Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  7. I only tease the ones I love. The others I just make fun of Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  8. I haven't read the responses yet, but I GUARANTEE no-one has said this. He HAS to look up at the sun to sneeze I told him for years, it's not the sun, silly, it's the act of leaning your head back. He insisted it was NOT. It actually drove me to googling the subject. Come to find out, he's a "photic sneezer". Who knew? It still makes me laugh every time he leans his head back and searches dramatically for the sun Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  9. I'm shocked Bobbi didnt' have those on her list---perhaps b/c she considers them "year around" Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  10. Cookie Monster. I ALWAYS kept cookies in the cabinet just in case he came for me. (Just kidding---I don't really have one. I was brave and I had a She-Ra sword) Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  11. You're good. We all have our favorites. Some people are just quieter about them than others Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  12. You're on my list, too, hunny. Bobbi, most definitely. I like Ashtanga b/c he usually has great bootie shots and funnies I can't really think of anyone else at the moment, though. Most of the time I read the title and some people's I actually avoid Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  13. I eat a lot of berries and love them. In the summer, though, it has to be apricots Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  14. I was thinking a Goo Goo Doll, but your comparison is much more accurate! Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  15. Ho---Humm. I think at this point, if the article told people pink cars get better gas mileage people would try it Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  16. I LOVE how before every commercial after Idol I'm told "Thank you for drinking" You're welcome. Bartender? I'll have another Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  17. Might I suggest investing in a GOOD mattress? I need to take my own advice there. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  18. do you typically get a night on average? I'm a FIRM believer in sleep. I get 7-8 hours but mostly always closer to 8 hours/night. I really think it makes a difference in so many aspects: Health (helps prevent sickness) Preventing premature aging Strengh/Endurance, etc. And the list goes on. So?

    Sounds perfect! Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  20. People don't realize how much money is in construction. Just yesterday my friend was telling me about a mutual friend of ours who is a stay-at-home mom with 3 kids (AT 25!!!) and her husband is a landscape architect. She made the comment "How the hell can she stay at hom when he's 'just a landscaper'". I laughted and said, "Hunny, I can name at least 3 landscape architects here at the beaches that make more than 6 figures (which is not too shabby). I provide worker's comp policies, beneifts, payroll, etc. to construction contractors/builders. They spend a TON of money on comp and I get a percentage, while saving them on their premium. It's win-win for sales. My accounts love me (and I love that they're still with me) and the best part is, if I have to meet with them (which is rare) I get to do so in jeans. When I worked with multi-millionare clients as a mortgage broker I wore business attire and delt with VERY high maintenance clientelle. A lot of these builders are also millionares---and yet they'll be in jeans too and laugh up a strom with me. I LOVE that. LOVE my job. PS. You should see my friend/co-worker. She used to work for Ritz-Carlton real estate and came to my company. When she meets with her clients, she still wears Gucci I love her. She's hilarious Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

    Cruises.

    I've never taken one less than 7 days/nights but I can tell you that even that won't seem like very long b/c you spend virtually the entire first day or so at sea (which is still loads of fun) and the entire last day or so. In general, for cruising, I'd HIGHLY recommend AT LEAST a 10-day/night.

    My parents went in late September once and a hurricane brewed. They were NOT happy ROUGH seas Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  23. *BUMP* I'm stoked! Another season of Gordon "Fucking" Ramsey is back. It's so wrong that I love this show Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  24. I agree (it could have been worse). This was the best finale show ever! I say that in comparison to the previous season's 2-hour finale's filled the entire time with "Who will it be?" and them standing there--no other celebs (except the previous season's winner), etc. This finale was FAR better. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
  25. Not all the tips they mentioned on the Today Show are on their website. One additional tip in particular stated turning your car on w/out the A/C and radio automatically on (meaning before you turn your car off, obviously you have to turn these things off---which I NEVER do). My mom has ALWAYS done this and it annoys me When I get in the car on a hot summer day, when it's turned on I want it to IMMEDIATELY blast air in my face---I don't even care if it's warm air---it's better than the stagnant hot air already in the car.
