WOW. That is stupendously narcissistic and arrogant. I'm so glad you did that, Amanda. How utterly despicable behaviour. This is outrageous.

And don't worry about your thread. It's gone. No one can access anything that was written there.

It is absolutely amazing that anyone would do that (write what she wrote on your FB page).

she sounds like a good person to delete off a friends list, don't she?

I'm paranoid too. I keep thinking back as to what I wrote in the past, etc. I will definitely be more careful on here and not discuss too much. I also changed my FB to extremely private and my friends list is not searchable either (to outsiders). And I deleted my VJ photos!

always better to be safe than sorry. good.gif

I have no clue guys, my mom was her boss at one time and she added me to her facebook. laughing.gif I really don't know much else about her.

She wanted a child, she's gay... so she slept with a friend. laughing.gif

How he found out it was his kid, I don't know the details.

I can say that I have heard this happening more than you would think in the lesbian community though, women want children, they have sex with a male and get what they want. It's either that or bust out the turkey baster, if you are strapped for cash. tongue.gif

I had to have a crown put on one of my molars yesterday. My gums are all swollen and sore where he did the work and of course it was an unexpected expense ($700).

To make the day even worse, my laptop motherboard expired after dinner. For the WoW players, this happened fifteen minutes before my 25 man Ulduar raid. mad.gif

So yet another unexpected expense. I could choose not to replace the computer of course but it's about the only thing keeping me sane at the moment.

cheap for a crown, mine ran about $900 a few months ago.

I am hoping for the battery because that is an easier, cheaper fix... but there goes some of the money I have saved for our trip sad.gif

have him take it to an auto parts store like o'reilly or autozone, they can test the battery and alternator for you. if battery, that's an easy swap.

I'm sorry DeadpoolX rose.gif , cars always have the worst timing for having problems! I know all too well!!


Why the heck to people have to beat around the bush?!?!?!? Can't they just come out and tell you instead of being a b$tch about it. She wouldn't even have a conversation with me, the tension felt like you could cut it with a knife!!

I have this co-worker who was a practicum student, now a summer student at my job, we have the exact same vechile except hers is a pontiac, they would fit her car perfectly. I am selling my winter tires because I will not be taking them with me when I move due to lack of space. I've had an ad listed for the past 4 months on kijii and the union website, no takers. I thought I would be nice and ask her if she was interested in any winter tires, before spending the $$ to put a newspaper ad. She said she would think about it and let me know, she wants winter tires but it would come down to whether she could afford them or not and may not be able to do 1 payment. I said, we will work it out, even if you can't pay in 1 payment.

I come on shift yesterday first one in 5 days and I say hello and she ignores me, just a weak...if that smile. Same thing today. I finally ask her while she's in the staff office at the same time as me if she was still thinking/interested, it had been a week since I last saw her. (Big sigh as if annoyed I asked).....Well I am interested I just don't know if I can afford them. I said "Well let me know either way, for sure, I need to sell them." No response. I run into her before I am leaving work, while she was coming back into the building with a kid, and she practically rolls her frickin eyes at me!!! mad.gif

I'm not asking her to spill her guts about her $$ for god sakes, just have the common decency to let me know as I asked her for a decision by this week when I came on shift and if to move on to another form of selling!! Ugh!! mad.gif headbonk.gif

On top of that I think I am getting sick! Doc put me on antibiotic because my 1st throat swab came back indefinitive and he wanted to redo, he noticed my throat was still really red! Its sooo sore!! crying.gif

what kinda car is it? and if she won't pony up the money or commit, sell them.

There are stores that do carry products that the chain auto stores don't. Audi does the same thing and I've found a great store called BAP Geon. They are all over the U.S., but I couldn't find one in B.C.. I'm sure there are others.

Yeah, places like Canadian Tire aren't much help. My father-in-law did recommend a place called Princess Auto. Sure, it has a dopey name, but if they have what I need and can do repairs for less than BMW, I'll go with them.



We had Princess Auto in Ontario - it actually had a really good range of supplies, but then we always had pretty straightforward to fix cars too. Definitely worth a try. Good luck.

Is there any way you can order windshield wipers and other things like that online?

It's a 2001 BMW 330Ci with around 25,000 miles on it. I bought it in 2001, but eight years later, it's having a few issues.

I could sell it, but I doubt I'd make much on it. Unless a cars is very rare and highly sought after, they always depreciate in value.

Ok, as I have mentioned, our apartment is right by the front door to this building. I have the patio door open right now - I sit right beside it but sit behind the blinds on the other side.

So I see a shadow on the patio - and someone knocks on the patio door again! I get up and say yes - the guy, who is very pleasant - says - which apartment number is this - I say - who are you? He shows me his card, he is from Telus (phone, internet etc provider) - I tell him the apartment number and ask him which one he is looking for - blah blah blah - so I say - that's not this one - he says yes, well what number is this? I tell him and he says thanks etc and heads for the main door.

What the hell is up with these people knocking on a random patio door?? They have to walk by the main door to annoy me (it startles me too)!!

Okay VJ.

I started smoking again.

I bought a pack this morning, it's been two years since I have really smoked. I need to quit before a) my son returns and b.) my husband finds out.

I know it's only been a day but already I have smoked half a pack... a stinky, smelly, 20 cigarette filled Americana pack.

And then I am on my balcony like some naughty kid trying to be all conspicuous and my son's friends are like: "HI!!..." then I can hear them going: "She's smoking!"

Great my son is going to return home to his friends telling him that I was smoking and me denying it all. What can I do? I can't lie.. yes i had one Ethan... what's my excuse? I don't have one.

No one really looks at cigarettes like a real addiction but it is.

Remember I went through this a few months ago but I threw the pack away. But I can't let go of these ones.

I just needed to get that off my chest. But oh man... oh man a cigarette and a cinnamon dolce latte from starbucks sure does go good together. <3

keep in mind that smoking helps fund health care for the needy children. have a heart, and smoke - for the children's sake!
