TO MOLLIFY LINGJACKSON OVERDRIVEBERT WHO IS THE SQUEAKY DESERT FIEND, POST ON THIS THREAD AND ONE OF YOUR FRIENDLY ITR MODS WILL TELL YOU THAT YOU ARE WICKED AWESOME, AND POSSIBLY OFFER AN EFFUSIVE ST

Sara grew up on a farm, though. I mean, once you've sledgehammered one cow, you've sledgehammered them all.

Don't listen to John; he was very nearly at the wrong end of my sledgehammer on many occasions.

But he kind of thrives on that sort of thing, so don't feel bad for him.

hi everybody. happy new year!

YAHOO HI DERE

YAHOO the cry of happiness not the email service HI DERE the greeting not the poster

tru confession:

in my head i always read HI DERE as HI, DEAR even though i know that's now how it sounds nor what it means. nevertheless the wrong way makes me happy (as in YAHOO).

bump botw

HI, DEAR is kind of sweet, actually. Awesome!

I am about 50 percent convinced to register "HI DEAR" as my new primary username.

you should do it

(now what percent convinced are you?)

You can't change it, can you? You have to make a whole new account, don't you? fuggit.

John has many disguises.

blagh it would have been boring anyway.

"Hi, Dear" sounds strangely like, "Hi, honey, I'M HOME" to me all of a sudden

Jon Chaney, man of a thousand usernames.

HI DEAR!

!!!!!!!HLO!!!!!!

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who is still awake.

I hope my fingers don't freeze to my keyboard.

Okay, time to pass out. I've been labeling wedding photos on flickr forever. Why did I take so many pictures? WHY?!

Not sure.

Yeah, I don't know either. I'm going to go lie down and think about it some more. WITH MY EYES SHUT

Am I the only person who visualizes the Iowa caucuses as a giant game of musical chairs?

yes, except you have to pay a bunch of money to start playing and you can't leave until you've played for two hours and EVERYBODY LOSES.

or maybe more like a cakewalk, but all the cakes are frosted with spoiled mayonnaise

That actually sounds like the kind of party I expect you to throw, John.

or like a shit sandwich, but one that wants to talk to you about the issues that are important to you

IT HAS BEGUN. 11 MONTHS OF ENDLESS SUFFERING.

Aaaargh, my heart really isn't in giving you a hard time today. Austin was in a car accident (HE IS FINE - so much so that he was going to WALK THE REST OF THE WAY TO WORK but some sane person gave him a ride). I think I'm a little shaken up, actually.

WTF WANTING TO WALK TO WORK AFTER AN ACCIDENT SRSLY

everything will be fine and huggles!!!!!!

xpost it's a whole year before I can start hating the new guy

i am off to spread oogy woogie chipper cheer to the magical ilx forest yippee!!!!

xpost... um... thanks?! Srsly, WALKING. Men are crazy.

i am off to spread oogy woogie chipper cheer to the magical ilx forest yippee!!!!

This is really conjuring up some disturbing images

Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,
Everything that's wonderful is what I feel when we're together,
Brighter than a lucky penny,
When you're near the rain cloud disappears, dear,
And I feel so fine just to know that you are mine.

My life is sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,
That's how this refrain goes, so come on, join in everybody!

Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,
Everything that's wonderful is sure to come your way
When you're in love to stay.

And love is here to stay!

John dear, I want you to GO LIE DOWN IMMEDIATELY. And cut back on whatever you've ingested.

I am such a lucky sillywig that all I ever need to eat is marshmallow fluff and rainbow sprinkles!

Who is John dear?

Do I have a secret cousin, or an imaginary uncle?

Yay!!

Yeah, so I missed a comma.

I know it's confusing when I say nice things to my good friend John from high school, but it's that kind of day.

Wait, maybe you DO have a secret uncle...

doesn't JOHN DEAR make tractors? maybe you have a secret RICH uncle.

also, src, i'm glad your crazy walking-to-work person is OKAY.

Tractors are on farms...farms have lambies and bunnies on them...I think you are right and I like this uncle very much!

ban^^

Que knows the score

Thanks lxy. I married a CRAZY PERSON, but I'm sure it will all be fine.

Well, except that something is very wrong with John, but if he's happy in his fantasy land with bunnies, who am I to judge.

Going to go be blinded so that eye doctor can admire my beautiful retina up close. Looking forward to an evening of listening to the tv blather on about Iowa. The upside is that I won't have a clear view of Tucker Carlson.
