On this post you like something I wrote. It came from a workshop I did based on the book - Loving What Is by Byron Katie. She is tough on people taking responsibility for how they are feeling. Don’t try and blame it on what someone else did to you. Here is a link to her website. I thought it could be helpful for your friend. http://help.com/account/read-notice-2…

The answer about when life begins.

I do think his answer to the pastor was a little pathetic. I don’t think he should have put himself in that situation in the first place. But since he did, why isn’t he complaining (or having others complain) vehemently about the “cone of silence” thing?! I agree with the article that he must not be overly polite! Although I really appreciate that about him … He has the danger of being Kerry-esque.

Hmmm, intriguing. Email away! I’m leaving right now for lunch though …

I think friendship in general is more important than war. :)

Later, Ames … I still love your avatar. It’s so 50s-ish. Did you know I’m a graphic designer too?

Also Cooper is like-minded. :)

The link is not about McCain, except as opponent (bad paragraphing there …).

Oh God, it’s all too amazing. Yes McCain was cute - then – but so what? That doesn’t make him a hero, and neither does being a POW. Have you read this? http://www.commondreams.org/archive/2…

I know I’ll never change Fizz’s mind, and I’m vowing to never try again. I got riled up there!

I’m glad you and Maximina appreciate some of my posts.

My pleasure - this is the Mod who still shouts herself - Mas

OK - one reply gone - Mas

Happily ever afters are inspiring! :) We all deserve one of those. Yes things are a little hetic and about to get worse, but all is still good. A certian guy asked me out, but we are going to wait a few weeks. I talked with him for about two hours tonight. There is something absolutely adorable about him. I just hope the chemistry we have over the phone translates into something in person. Talking to him is so comfortable and we could talk for hours and hours.

Most of the week I had sleep issues, so I can relate. I don’t think I will get much sleep tonight. The wedding you went to sounds absolutely beautiful.

:D Hello Ames! I have to actually get up very early and go to work. Yikes. I need to do laundry and finish a project, but instead of doing these things I am here. How are you?

It sounds beautiful:)

:)

I am sooooo glad your day was blessed, that your heart was moved, that your tears were joy. The hand of God my friend, is in everything. He resides in us!

heheh yeah those are funny lol.
As if they have no muscles to hold the skin :P

Im off for now,

Oww your pic doesn’t work, is it jpg ?

heheh I thought so too !

It seems so cool to show my
grandkids pics of me jumping out of an airplane.
But then again, its handy when I’m still around to actually HAVE them.. lol

I want to go with you:)

haha, I once claimed to be going sky diving too…
I Still do :P

Ooooo, super soaker, fun, Is it a wet t-shirt wedding:)?

I hope you know I am only joking, have a good time at the wedding:)! TTYL:)

Haha yes, my cats can be that odd sometimes too. If you feel like it, you can also
send in your own cat pics, and make a
capture one day.

In the beginning I really didn’t like
take offs and landings. But when I once flew in a tiny toy-ish plane, the big ones
are sooo good.. lol

Hey backyard weddings are the best kind:) Will you be carrying a shotgun?

Its based on this :

Especially if you have a cat this is
sooo cute :p

Oww flying indeed, can be so boring !
I always have a hard time realy falling asleep in planes. This way you spend your time well !

I’m struggling with censorship today. I am a true Patriot, I believe in freedom of speech, as in, “all opinions/facts…should be heard”.

Then I’m off to the company picnic, joy, joy, joy, I will be wearing my poker face all day:)

I have like the exact same thing !
Then i have all these ideas in my head, and if they have to be done by PC programms it juts works slower then I want :P

yes for sure drawing can work relaxing !

Im sure cats are complotting plans we have no clue about lol.
talking about lol and cats, do you know the lolcat site ?

Keep up the good fight ames:) You are not alone! Cheers:)

I just wanted to shout that it is good to see you around:)

Oww sounds like a nice job !
Hope the card thing works out for you :)

I had an illustration education as well,
but mostly do it as a hobby.
Now Im looking into the styling-direction
(interiour). I really want a job now where I can use my creativity (Didn’t for a long time).

I have cats too ! They are handy to blame things on lol.
Agreed, maybe they can make an exception for you, and make an item of it that belongs to the site or so.

Nice! Cute sibs, too. :)

Its ok lol, I have days that my typo’s fly
around everywhere :P

Oww love the little Troll !
I think everytime there is a troll on the site, you could put that picture in..lol,
to make it clear.

I can imagine it might be tricky,
its a whole new feeling to draw like that.
Is it also you profession ?

**ANN

I like your Avi too :)
Whats your drawing style ?

Ames, I love your new avatar, and I now have to admit that all this time I thought you were a man. A very nice man … :)

I get floaters sometimes, but they don’t last long and are not troblesome.

I am so sorry to hear about your cousin. That is awful. You are a strong woman and I am so glad you learned to take care of yourself.

I recieved an email from my internet friend, so I know sort of what he is thinking. It was nice.

Sometimes floaters are a sign of migraines. Do you feel any other symptoms?

He was only 18. He was seriously mentally ill. He was one of the sweetest guys you could ever meet. He was so loved and cared for by his mother and grandmother. My heart aches for them. He was in a lot of pain and always thought someone was out to get him, but at the same time he was an extremely friendly and intelligent young man.

The internet guy is driving me crazy, because I have no idea what he thought of our conversation. He said he would call me when I get back from New York.

No I heard that one of the students who I was close to last year died. It is pretty devasating, but I am ok. He was an amazing guy. His poor family. I don’t know the details, except he died in his sleep of what looks like a drug overdose.

The sweet guy was great. We talked for over an hour.

Do you get migraines?

:]

hehehehehe… that is true… laughter gets me through… im doing ok.. a bit tired. a little sore.. but ill be ok… the moving is finally done.. nothing left to do.. thank god.. lol.. great big hugs..

Btw, help seems to be very slow for everyone for the last few weeks.

I think you should stick with the humor-ish cartoony theme. I think it is fitting for your personality. When you are finished with that you can make another one that shows off your retro style. You just need to take a couple days to yourself to finish it.

Are you planning on finishing your website anytime soon? hmmmmm

I love your new avatar. Very cool! You are a great artist. :)

Hahahaha! We have been sharing shouts for ever, probably for almost a year, but I never thought you were a guy. I once made a post to make sure people knew I was female.

I would love to see one of those self portraits. How cool!

I am off to bed. Sweet dreams! :)

His voice makes him less a concept and more a person. I actually am so silly, I had my sister and sister-in-law listen. The both thought it was cute because he sounded a little nervous. If he only knew I was talking to my friends online about him. Luckily he thinks I am a confident woman and not some person who is obsessing about him. I asked him in an email on Friday what he was thinking about the situation. His response in an email yesterday was that everyday he checks his email hoping there is something from me. I am just worried because now I feel that my expectations are rising and my heart is in it.

It sounds like you are having a nice evening! My whole week has been crazy busy and I don’t think it is going to stop being that way for a while.
Hearing his voice makes him human, so I am very glad I sent him my number. We will see how my conversation goes with him tomorrow. He did sound adorable, so I am quite nervous!

I am looking forward to hearing your responses to my email, especially because I was so honest. I am hoping you don’t think I am insane now. It may have been the most open an honest email I have ever written.

BTW, you should read my shout trail with Florie. We were just talking about you.

Congrats! I am glad you can breath and feel proud of yourself. I am doing good. That guy called me earlier, so I have at least heard his voice, but I didn’t talk to him. I just got a message. I had a crazy busy, but good day.

AMES!!! :)
