Good evening, everybody.
This is Lefty. (Please excuse the messy coffee table in my room. And the date’s totally wrong, but I just got the digital camera and didn’t realize a date would show up until after I took the picture.) Lefty is a one-earred reindeer with a big hole in his back that I got for a quarter today. I felt sorry for him, so I named him, and then I had to keep him.

mmmm, subway…
Lol, the funny thing is that I had Subway today, but that’s just a bad of napkins that I forgot to get rid of.
I once adopted a dog who was missing one eye, had a broken leg, had rashes all over his body, had been run over by a bus on his broken leg, had constant diahrrea, had been shot with an arrow by a neighbor (still had the scar). You know what his name was: Lucky!

That’s sweet. :)

That it’s a lovely picture of a messy desk.
and a reindeer.

That’s cause he can’t really sit up and falls over when you don’t lean him against anything… lol

Coffee table, not desk. ;)
I just asked because I’ve only had the camera for a few hours now.
He has his nose up in the air because he thinks his farts don’t smell.

They’re anti-acids. And they help when your stomach is upset.

Oh yeah, I wish you could buy it on it own. I am a bit of a cookie fiend too
Mmm, I’d totally eat the bread all on it’s own, and stuff myself, lol. Ooh, the pies rock. I had cake today!
Ours has little apple pies, the pocket ones like McDonald’s has, but the cake was birthday cake.
I moved from one apartment to a different house, and my stuff was completely a mess, and I took pictures from every angle with a digital camera, then looked at my whole world of messy stuff on the computer. It was an easy way to discover that I didn’t care about any of my things anymore so there was no excuse to ever organize it ever again (that’s all I used to do, organize, clean, exercise, organize, work a job, organize, clean.) So cameras are truly useful.

Really? He’s just a stuffed reindeer, lol.
HAHA! But seriously, do you have plans for the holiday season?
I’m going to have a small family gathering. I have told my family to not buy me gift but to spend my gift money to a charity. I want to go into the new year with good mojo.
Laina1312 wrote:
I don’t make them.
Very wise, but I need to earmark some sort of targets.
I read that almost no one actually keeps them because of the casual attitude towards them, so it’s better to set realistic goals with a reasonable timeline.
I need to become my own boss, I need to become more than friends with Ana Molina, I need finacial security, I need to coltivate friendships, I need to become more outgoing, I need to make sure you stop posting with the words “I board”… I desire better formyself, for to long I have been in a sort of dormant state, I want to live!!!
Laina1312 wrote:
Lol.. when have I ever posted “I board”?
Are you kidding me, sometimes I read your posts and consider sending you a Nintendo DS.
Very funny, the way my bank account looks, I can only offer you a game, you would have to folk out for the DS.

Seriously? Wow, anyway it seems to be doing well here in England, I may watch it over the weekend…If you get desperate you can always (…download)
That’s illegal and they bust people hard for it. I’ll just wait til it comes out on DVD. *pouts*
You are just like me, I am terrified of pirated anything. Once my brother brought home a pirate copy of American ganster, all through the movie I was watching out the window for the cops… DVD, sounds like a better option.

awwwwwwwwwwwww lovely teddy, Happy Belated birthday.
The all consuming guilt!!! Ever read the guilty heart, a guy kills another guy and he swears he can hear the dead guys heart still beating in the night…Eventually he goes mad with guilt, I think thats how the tale goes: But thats me, my concious has a big mouth… 1312, Oh darn, my bad, happy belated :)
Did you celebrate with friends and family, or was it a quiet thing?
I have a cousin who’s birthday is in December, poor thing always gets her birthday/christmas presents on the 25th.
Everyone in my family is always broke come my Birthday, so every year I hear “Will get you something next month”, who are they kidding, they always forget…I’m to quiet for my own good.
Well it could be worse, I could have no family at all to moan to. Laina, have you written anything lately, I’m still working through my epic, having to chop whole chapters to make it publishable (its killing me slowly).

Ah, I too have been in a dormant state and I think I am coming out of it!! Oy I hope.
Hi Laina. Hi Lefty.
Lefty doesn’t look like a reindeer to me. It’s cute. It doesn’t have an eye? an ear too?
Did you fix the hole in its back?
It’s missing its left horn too. You could cut off the remaining horn. but it wouldn’t look like a reindeer then. It would look like a cross between pink pantehr (the cartoons) and a clown. But it would still be cute.
That toy has a lot of stories to tell…
He is a reindeer, the flash just washed him out. He’s brown. He’s missing an antler, that’s why he’s Lefty. He only has a left antler. Yeah, I fixed the whole in his back.

Pretty major surgery. Is he okay now?
He doesn’t look brown from here, he looks pink.

No complications. It was really only a small surgery, and he was back at home the next day.

Good idea! Lefty looks pink right now. Does Lefty have a tail?

Much better. Now it looks like a reindeer. It’s cute. Soyou finally figured out how to remove the flash. Great. Set the camera’s date soon. Oh…Take a picture of Lefty’s back stitched up.

Lol, no, I just put him against a black background. It’s too dark in my room to not use the flash.

I would say, but people get banned from this site for revealing personal information.
I’m on really thin ice just with being too honest (and confused about identity) to make up a fake name.

Michael, it was THIS COMMENT that prompted me say “HUH?” So, what I meant by “HUH” since you asked, was: How is this an answer to my statement just before it (about being probing), and specifically “who was talking about fake names (before you did)?”
I am totally confused, and I don’t see things clearing up anytime tonight so I think I’ll just say goodbye and go to bed now.
Okay… what I was saying is not at all confusing, though I may not have communicated it clearly — so I could probably clarify your confusion if I knew what it looked like, but goodnight.
I think it was confusing. You can see my confusion by looking at this page.
Florie wrote:

Yes, but you didn’t describe what you did understand, you just said “huh?” and “i am confused”
What I do in that case is read over the thing I didn’t understand until I understand it.
Or just ignore it and do something else (much easier.)
Michael Leibman wrote:

Well, that’s very sensible Michael.

Sometimes…. it does mean that I’ve read many posts here hundreds of times before considering replying. Kind of mind-numbing.
Anyway, I still contend that you look at things from all angles, and maybe that’s what (somsetimes) makes me CRAZY.
I contend that I feel safer and less confusing talking to you on this post because it’s Laina’s post and she makes me feel safer and less confusing.
I really do think you love to be confusing, and I find that somewhat annoying usually.

If your own untrue thoughts annoy you, why not think better things?

You completely contradict yourself. If I were you I’d find that annoying.

The answer is that I feel pretty close to my allowable limit of revealing personal information (because of using my real name which makes it easy to discover most other facts about my life), so it’s prudent of me to judge each further request for personal information on a case-by-case basis, if I wish to be allowed to use this site. My honest response to “hey babe, what’s your sign” was basically to tell you everything about me, so I judged that to be too much more personal information, erased it, and mentioned my reasoning for not giving the answer.
Now I understand this: “I’m on really thin ice just with being too honest (and confused about identity) to make up a fake name.” Thank you.
You’re welcome. I tend to use the word “just” often, so it may have more nuances in my mind than others hear.
No, it wasn’t the word “just,” but let’s not talk about it anymore okay?

Lol, thanks.
You’re welcome — I think that might be the nicest compliment word I ever said about you. It is probably because I practiced using the word ‘wonderful’ over and over recently until I could use it right.
