tell us about your job tza

(that was an xp, actually)

you people on the upper west side!

I have to get up at 7 to wake the kids up in order to get J to her morning activity, but I hate going to bed before 1 a.m. I am never ready to sleep, basically...

hey i don't live there i just have to go there! and it's like, past uws...

i have been sleeping too late. past few days i made myself get up at 10 lol. that's gonna have to change...

I know... I want to sleep past that if I can. Sigh. This is why I want to work second or third shifts... it's when I have actual energy!

src what are your kids' ages again? though i am probably slightly older than you (SHS '89 yo) i am generally at a loss with the children. and as an only child i am . . . actually okay with kids that aren't my responsibility. i'm much better with the ones that want to play catch, though.

i used to do 3:30-12 and it got really weird after a while...

also once i would do 4 10s - from like 6-4:30am and i nearly lost my mind after a few weeks and had to switch back to days.

my (step)dad just turned 72 yesterday. he looks about as good as i hope to look at 52. but he's replacing me by playing catch with the seven-year-old next door

mookieproof, please report to my house to play with my kids for several hours immediately!

Alex is 10 years old (I CANNOT accept that, btw); Julia will turn 6 in August. Julia is some crazy combination of my extroversion/weird personality and my sister and her fixation with fashion. Also, I graduated in 1990 from high school, so you must be just one year older than me?

tehresa, I don't think there is any perfect shift for me, but probably 3 pm to 11 pm would be best. Getting up at 4:30 am to be at the hospital at 7 a.m. is awful. (hmmmm, maybe I should work closer to home when I get an actual job, huh.)

hey on continuing movie reports, Michael Clayton was good.

hahaha yeah i said that (about the closer to home thing) after a year of insane commuting and then went and got another job with an insane commute, just in the opposite direction of the last one.

yes, it was... but i felt like i'd seen it before?

ending credits stunt - pretty genius

haha

so how do you guys feel about hypnosis cds?

ha ha ha, during my senior year of high school, my parents gave my brother a self-hypnosis tape to help him do better in school. I used to listen to it to see if it would help me. Generally it made me fall asleep. (It was just this reeeeeaaaaaalllly soothing music, no words, but allegedly had SUBLIMINAL messages in it).

btw, I usually fell asleep on my bedroom floor when I was listening to it.

Are you thinking of something similar, tehresa, or is it something totally else?

John - stop being ahead of me in movie watching all the time. ;_;

haha my niece emily (daughter of fabled sister-in-law from other unpleasant threads) is 4.5 and despite getting every single (pink) toy she could ever want is curiously interested in me -- i have danced with her and played dolls with her and stuff. i don't think it's going to be enough to overcome the pink toys and her fucking psycho dad, though ;_;

send all your children to me (and my dad!) for baseball training, though!

my roommate listened to this cd about eating habits and apparently it worked because i just noticed the other day that he looks a lot thinner!

so he burned me a copy but now my computer is having issues reading it :( i was wondering if i should fall alseep to it...

hmm....?

aww, mookie that's sweet of you! i'm sure she will appreciate it a lot when she gets older.

cd loaded finally. i think comp was confused bc it was mp3 and avis on it

I wish I could remember what I called that tape; I know it was something snarky. I kept listening to it, though!

omg the PINK thing. About two seconds after Julia was born we started receiving pink stuff. It is crazy! I did entire pink loads of laundry after that. I have no idea what it is with people. Even A. started buying pink stuff. BUT J will also play baseball, soccer... both my kids LIKE gym class even. (that is a huge mystery to me and makes me suspect they are aliens or something). Anyway, yes - play baseball with them. I will enjoy a nap!

my mom crocheted us all blankets before we were born. older sister's was pink, mine was blue (hah! sorry mom), and by my little sister, she just went with yellow.

i always had a blue room, though, until like 5th grade when my mother painted it lilac. my little sister demanded her room be painted pink at an early age though.

I wanted a pink room for about five minutes when I was in 8th grade, but that was when we moved into the house I lived in from then until I got married. I feel sure John and Dan can both affirm that it was alarmingly pink. BUT there were no flowers on the wallpaper at least.

BRAINWASHING TAPE

That's what I called the self-hypnosis tape. God I feel better now.

haha nice.

I knew it would come back to me eventually. Because of the BRAINWASHING

so what do we think, good bedtime listening?

would you let this dude hypno u y/n

I think I'd have to at least meet him first, but who knows. I've been known to do stranger things.

I am a bit concerned about the double breasted jacket on him.

I have got to go to sleep now or tomorrow I will be a worse train wreck than usual, but I want to hear if you try this hypnosis or not and what the results are!

Good night all!!! <3 <3 <3

britishesness: helpful or harmful to his case?

i think he needs his pinstripes closer together.

i should go to sleep too bc wtf i have to go to work tomorrow!?
i have nothing to wear :(

that man looks too much like paul schaffer and not enough like stanley tucci, so NO

Morning, Americans!

lxy, i have met and conversed with stanley tucci

several times, even!
