Hey lise,
Good to hear your date went well. Was it a bike date or a running date? I hope all goes well in that department.
Umm our friends don't have any pets so there was no concern there.. This may sound even funnier but he then thought to keep it in the freezer..hahahahahah...Our friend andrew;s a character indeed...

You know, it was neither. It was an actual dinner date, and on into the evening, but of course I was home, like a good girl, posting about it later. He talked about roller blading...I've have to sound him out on biking.Quote:

I just say, dig a deeeeep hole. :cool:
wow, this has really gone off te beaten path now! I had a friend who buired there's under a rose bush. Thought it was strange at the time. But they put things like urea in shampoo. Now that is strange!
I am glad your first date went so smashingly! I would be scared to date. But then I have been with the same guy for 19 years. I just don't remember how?
Here this is funny, A client of ours was telling us about this date he went on. He took this girl after having dinner to a bar. There was some big game on. They were having a good time and all, but she was getting really drunk. Well she went to take a drink out of her beer bottle when a home run was hit and everyone in the bar cheered. Well by
accident he hit the bottle by her mouth with he's elbow and knocked her two top front teeth out! Well she leaned over picked her teeth up and put them in her pocket and kept on drinking. He was freaking him out! He wanted to take her to the emergency room but she wouldn't have it. So he just let it rest. The only problem was all night every time she would laugh or smile.... well you can imagine. They never went out on another date.
I've woken up the morning after the night before with my fair share of mystery bruises, but imagine waking up without teeth! :eek:
Re: question two; I was gonna go with d), but why bother cleaning and tidying? Just go see your date's house or take Lizzie out for tea. :p
A great thread - y'all are fab. :D
I would say when the house gets dirty...just move. :D
I guess we should defer to the Commonwealth subjects on this one. What do we Yanks know about when our homes are too messy for the Queen?! :pQuote:

I had also been stood up, last weekend, by the son of a nurse I work with (she's retirement age, now, ladies, I'm not quite robbing the cradle). He'd been calling me for weeks, had asked his mom to get my number after we met last summer at a work party, and then, Friday ... I'm sitting there in my cute suede skirt ... and he stood me up. Never called, nuthin', and ... sigh. So it feels great to have gone on a wonderful date with a nice guy...who just called to ask me out again! Yay! L.
Placenta burial is quite common in some cultures. Not to mention that some folks like to cook it and eat it to help with nutrient replacement postpartum (as made famous in an edition of Mothering magazine from 1983). :eek:
Oh, and speaking of those horrid tampons, I've been using a menstrual cup for the last two years and it's awesome! Check out http://www.divacup.com or http://www.mooncup.co.uk for more info.
Queen "I would say when the house gets dirty...just move. :D"
Ah, so the truth is out!! And here I thought your impending move was 'cause your honey is getting a better job.
The truth is out now gals, it's not for better ride weather or community, not for a good career move.....just new and better dust bunnies.
Hmmm...is there such a thing as "dust scorpions"?? :eek:Quote:

And, this "clean" thing ... don't know much about it, except I saw a recommendation in the paper this morning to use a q-tip to clean the corners of your windows. I about snorted coffee right out my nose. If ever someone mentions the dirt in the corner of my windows, I'm going to ask how the heck they got in my house, then I'm going to put a cleat mark on their behind as I kick them out.

Ok, it's official, in the future whether it's spam or someone on the board leaves the seat up....our policy will be to put our fingers in our ears, hum loudly and talk of placenta burial and/or placenta recipes and their role in nutrition/recovery until they leave.
Eww ewww eww. :rolleyes: ;) :cool:

Your bike is cleaner than your home:
