Marrieds choosing not to have kids

[maddhatir]

Oooohhhh, Oooohhhh, me, me, I am going to tape it!!!! I love my vampires. (Next to my aliens, they are my favorites)

Madd: Glad you had a good time on vacation. The pic looked great. Is your niece still a wench in training????

For anyone wanting a haunted stay: check out this website. You just pick from your state (or the state you want) and it has all the places. I have it set up for my state of Missouri.

Our most famous haunted place to stay in St. Louis is the Lemp Mansion. Here is a link to it: http://www.lempmansion.com/

We are only days away from our Alaskan cruise!!! I can hardly stand the wait.

Yes! We love our vampires! Maybe this show can hold us over until JD gets his butt movin' and making Dark Shadows!

NOT too sure if my niece is a WIW- she needs to find some manners before she can hang with us big girl wenches! You know the Capt likes us to mind our Ps and Qs......or is that HIS Ps and Qs

Thanks for Haunted Inn site! I will check around and see what they have!

Make sure you bring us back some pics of your cruise! Bon Voyag-ie and have fun!

I plan on watching True Blood as well...I haven't read any of Charlaine Harris' books, but one of my best friends loves them and I love most of the other sci-fi/fantasy/horror stuff that she does..so I need to get on reading the books and then enjoying the show!!

I just saw the ad for it tonight and thought what a great series this is gonna be! We have Movie channel & Showtime, so I asked DH if it would be a problem to switch to HBO and he said, not at all. Bye bye Movie channel, hello H-B-O! SWEET!!! My neck is tingling just thinking about it!

Looks like there will be a few of us whose necks will be tingling!!

I can't keep up with ya'll! LOL Now you went and got fried without me and are doing vampires again..geez! I gotta hang on this thread more often!
Actually, yesterday my folks surprised me with a visit! They drove 525 miles just to spend a few hours with me and it really made my day, week, month etc. I miss them so much. I'll be seeing them again in 3 weeks, when we go to NY to drop off the dog and leave for Disney.
Here's a little something for you vampy women..

I'm off for the 30 mile drive into town to pick up a few things..have a good day everyone!

That is great your parents came for a visit! Seems like it was a real pick me up for you!

I love that kitty pic! and the flying kitty in your sig is new- I love it!.....

It is almost "our" time of the year! I should start decorating for Halloween in a few weeks! I got SO much stuff after Halloween at The Spirit Halloween store! Heck they even sent me an e-mail a few weeks back reminding me to get a move on it and start buying more!

The day after Halloween last year, they had their big sale- I went armed- I had my big pull cart that I use at flea markets! Even that would not hold all the spooky treasures I picked up @ 75% off! There was a line in front of the store before it opened- and I rolled up with my cart- EVERYONE was jealous!

OK- went off a little there- Happy Thursday!

That's a good website, unfortunately it only shows 1 haunted hotel in Wisconsin.

Yay for the cruise! Have a wonderful time!

May, glad to hear the parents were in town, it's always great to see them especially when they live so far away. Disney in 3 weeks

I also like your little vampire kitties!

Believe it or not I had a dream last night about a very handsome vampire biting my neck. It was soooo real! It really sucked (no pun intended!) when I woke up and realized it was just a dream!

I am a big Halloween lover too! I have way too many boxes in storage that need to be pulled out to decorate. I always spend the last weekend in September decorating the entire house and then I can enjoy the decorations the entire month.

We return from Disney on the 30th, so I told DH that we are doing some EVP work in the cool little cemetary we found near my sister's home on Halloween night when the veil is the thinnest between the living and the dead. I cannot wait!

All Hallows Eve Maybe you should try and record at....dead time!

You guys are going to get the biggest laugh outta me. I'm not into Halloween much, I never was even as a kid. But the thing I do love is that they play all the "Halloween" series of movies over and over again, all month. Well, I like to stay up late and watch them but then when I have to go to bed I have to walk to the other end of the house, past a few windows and the minute I get near them I dart past, because I'm sure a hand is gonna come thru it and get me I dive into bed, laughing at myself but shaky nonetheless even though I must have seen those movies about 100 times. I just can't help myself! It's become the yearly ritual and now DH (who goes to bed earlier than me) will say "what time will you be jumping into bed tonight? I want to be prepared!"
My day so far has not been a good one. On the way to town the traffic was backed up for construction and I was nearly rear-ended by a guy who was too busy playing with something in his truck to pay attention to the fact that we were all stopped. He came to a screeching halt just inches from my bumper...or should I say DH's bumper, because I had his SUV today. (3 out 4 speakers are blown in my car and i wanted to be able to hear the new album by Slipknot without all that distortion ) I was already not feeling real hot, very shaky and kind of out of it and that made it worse.
When I got home I just kicked back and played on the computer for a while, relaxing and waiting for my meds to kick in. Why the hell am I having so much trouble with anxiety right now. I should be on top of the world!
Time to go tackle the laundry and marinate the chicken. Exciting life I lead, huh? LOL

 

[maddhatir]

Not into Halloween!? That is blasphemy!!! Especially for a goth-girl like you!!! I guess everyday is Halloween for you!

Halloween is my FAVORITE holiday!

Last year I pretty much skipped right over xmas- I did not even put up a tree! I am so tired of xmas and all the BS that goes along with it.

If I had my way- I would hibernate in the house xmas eve and xmas day and watch TV!

I have to admit that I can be bit skittish too after a good horror flick. Wait, what the heck am I saying, I am skittish no matter what! I was home the other afternoon and something had fallen in another room, I jumped and thought my heart skipped a beat. But I still love watching them and I'm not afraid to be in a cemetary at night.

Sorry to hear about the jack*ss not paying attention to the road, he was probably texting or something with his cell phone! I hate people on cell phones in cars!!! Either drive or talk, pick one!

Your just excited about your Disney trip, it's just coming through as anxiety right now. That's how I get, I'm always worried about getting the house clean, making sure the dog is taken care of (and will she be okay cuz she's an old fart), and that particular anxiety doesn't go away until I reach Disney and start letting it go. And then there is the decision of what to pack, what did I forget to pack, and just in general did I forget anything.

Hang in there, I hope your day gets better.
You could always pop in a horror flick and really take your mind off things!

I know exactly what you mean! I will admit that I enjoy decorating with snowmen & putting up a tree (we do go out and cut down a real one). But the whole religious thing is just not me, not to mention I believe in an earth based religion (hence cutting down the real tree as it was a pagen ritual before a Christian one). The decorating that I do is more for the family (not me or DH), who come over to celebrate/party. And as it is it's just a reason to get together because we have not seen each other since the summertime. There are no prayers or discussion of anything religious, everyone eats, drinks (a lot), and the great nieces & nephews open presents. DH and I keep discussing the possibility of skipping over it all together and taking a vacation over xmas one of these years. I'm still working on that one.

 

[maddhatir]

Well girls- IF this makes you feel any better- I have anxiety EVERY DARN DAY OF MY LIFE! I stinkin' work from home and do not have many worries! ..... I am just a neurotic freak!

Not sure if I mentioned this here before- But DH always said when he got a sailboat he would name it after me. So he had me going all summer that he was not sure what to name the boat- of course I got all huffy b/c the boat was not going to be named after me like he promised.

I said FINE! If you do not want to actually PUT my name on the boat- just name it NEUROTIC! and it will secretly be named after me w/o actually putting my name on the darn thing!

He looks at me with his "smirk" and says- I NEVER said I was not going to name the boat after you- YOU said I was not going to name the boat after you- argh! men! He thinks it is funny that I torture MYSELF!

I need my meds just telling the story!

Talking about skittish! You guys reminded me of this- One time DH was in the kitchen putting his dinner on his plate- we heard this loud "crash" in the bedroom that we use as a closet- He went RUNNING! into the bedroom with the plate of food in his hand! I was FREAKIN' peeing! I said to him- "and just WHAT were you going to do with that plate of food?!" He said he was going to smash it in someones face if they were in there!!!!!

OMG I am peeing just picturing him running into the bedroom like a nut!

BTW- It was one of the racks we have screwed into the wall that fell- ummm- yeah- I have too many clothes!

ITA !!!!! Heck- I would not even be able to cut down a tree for xmas without crying! When DH was buliding his stupid pole barn we had to cut down a few trees and I felt SO guilty! It really bothered me for a long time!

I will not even get rid of a plant until I know I tired everything I could to save it

I also believe in the "earth based religion" (funny how the christians lay claim to most pagan holidays- ....but with their own twist ) .....and then call us evil!

Oh- never argue politics or religion- (b/c I am always right)

I had to throw my bumper sticker back into my back window again in time for the election- "The last time we mixed politics and religion, people were burned at the stake"!!!!!

Hey Tammy- have you been over to the Godless Heathens support thread?? I know Shyvioletisme is over there! I only lurk.

me too!! we are very into Halloween in our house! I haven't even put up a christmas tree in several years...oh wait...last year I put up 2 itty bitty black trees on our mantle.. do those count as christmas trees?? lol (then again seeing as we don't celebrate it as a religious holiday, I guess it doesn't really matter what we do!)

This is so me too. I am the person in the office who everyone brings their dying plants to because I "typically" can bring them back to life. There is a conference room next to my office that is slowly becoming a jungle because people know that's where I put all the "foster" plants. True story, one day(like 5 years ago) as I walking down the hallway leaving work for the day I had noticed someone had put a plant (Norfolk pine) in a garbage can outside of their office for the cleaning people to toss. I quickly took it out of the garbage and put it in the conference room where it is still living happily today.

Great minds think alike!

I have lurked over there occasionally.

Like Madd said, it counts if you say so!

I bet you 2 are type A, borderline OCD too; aren't you?

I get so wound up; and the closer the trip gets, the tighter I get wound. It isn't until I'm on the plane or in the car that I can finally breath & relax. And a good cocktail upon arrival usually smooths out any last edges.


Here is a little something to help brighten your day. The new Foamy cartoon is out.
This one is really bawdy & pretty darn funny!

I have a really cute vampire for you all. Of course I am still waiting for JD to play one so I can dream about that!!!

So........who has pics of the furbabies in Halloween costumes. I'm sure I have posted this before but here is Duncan last year before his party at the kennel.
