    Ooh. Shopping list. I did go shopping today. Got my chubby bunny (... my little brother. He hates me for this) some clothes.

    Then I went back and got a pair of sunglasses, a sweater, and a necklace.

    Maybe it's, for pee, for poo, and then cleans up after itself. Now that would be cool. :)

    Joe, some potty training advice from an old pro. Don't use pull ups, it doesn't work, they're just glorified diapers. Go straight to underwear, if he has an accident he'll learn allot faster if he's allowed to feel it. Sydney wore pullups for 5 months, and wouldn't go potty at all. I put underwear on her, she was trained in one day, no lie. Good luck, he's growing up. :)

    3 in one. Complete as its own potty, then take it apart the one piece fits on the toilet and then the bottom part turns into a big step so its easier for them to climb up. Lol

    Alty thanks for the advice. I also hear that boys are lot harder and lot longer to train but this guy is so independent wants to do everything on his own and the adult way. Maybe its time for some underwear, oh the mess, but good way to learn quickly wooo hoo.

    Bought James van Praag book. The co producer and writer of Ghost Whisperer.

    Like things like that.

    I've heard of the ghost whisperer... not praag though... may have to look into it.

    ... I'm not sure how I was potty trained.

    ... I believe the tools used included banana leaves, a match, and push pins.. . not sure how they all worked together, or if they did, as I still use adult diapers.

    Oh you know on the instructions they have warnings , etc..

    The last warning almost made me choke and laugh and think why they think there are stupid people in the world.

    The last warning was. This is not for adult use. Like Duh...

    Okay Joe, you made me do this, I've been waiting for an opportunity to share these gems;

    On Sears hairdryer:
    Do not use while sleeping.
    (Gee, that's the only time I have to work on my hair!)

    On a bag of Fritos:
    You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside.
    (The shoplifter special!)

    On a bar of Dial soap:
    Directions: Use like regular soap.
    (and that would be how?)

    On some Swann frozen dinners:
    Serving suggestion: Defrost.
    (But it's 'just' a suggestion!)

    On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert: (printed on bottom of the box)
    Do not turn upside down.
    (Too late! You lose!)

    On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding:
    Product will be hot after heating.
    (Are you sure? Let's experiment.)

    On packaging for a Rowenta iron:
    Do not iron clothes on body.
    (But wouldn't that save more time?)(Whose body?)

    On Boot's Children's cough medicine:
    Do not drive car or operate machinery.
    (We could do a lot to reduce the construction accidents if we just kept those 5 year olds off those fork lifts.)

    On Nytol sleep aid:
    Warning: may cause drowsiness.
    (One would hope!)

    On a Korean kitchen knife:
    Warning: keep out of children.
    (hmm... something must have gotten lost in the translation... )

    On a string of Christmas lights:
    For indoor or outdoor use only.
    (As opposed to use in outer space.)

    On a food processor:
    Not to be used for the other use.
    (Now I'm curious.)

    On Sainsbury's peanuts:
    Warning: contains nuts.
    (but no peas?)

    On an American Airlines packet of nuts:
    Instructions: open packet, eat nuts.
    (somebody got paid big bucks to write this one... )

    On a Swedish chainsaw:
    Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands.
    (Raise your hand if you've tried this... )

    On a child's Superman costume:
    Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly.
    (Oh go ahead! That's right, destroy a universal childhood belief.)

    I got to say, though, clinton's bib... isn't really all that cracked up.

    Sneezy,

    I truly wish I had more time to selectively pleasure read. Actually Marta and were out tonight and she brought it up in our conversation that I should find the time as I used to. She remembers me being a lot more gentle and relaxed when I read what I chose to instead of trade and training seminar info. She did add that I am still the only man for her and she continues to love me even though I may sometimes stress... you know how it is...

    We probably have over 250 books in our loft that we turned into a great library. I do need to take more time to do the things I really want to do... we'll see..

    Sneezy, I just loved those warning labels...

    Here are a few 'truths' I found in my CFS Newsletter. I really love men, but also enjoy a laugh or two, so here goes..


    SMILE OF THE WEEK

    (contributions for this section are most welcome)

    =: A Woman's View On Men :=

    What do you call a handcuffed man?
    Trustworthy.

    Why do only 10 percent of men make it to heaven?
    If they all went, it would be hell.

    Why do men like smart women?
    Opposites attract.

    How are husbands like lawn mowers?
    They're hard to get started, they emit noxious odors, and half the time they don't work.

    How do men define a 50-50 relationship?
    We cook, they eat; we clean, they dirty; we iron, they wrinkle.

    How do men exercise on the beach?
    By sucking in their stomachs every time they see a bikini.

    How do you get a man to stop biting his nails?
    Make him wear shoes.

    How does a man show he's planned for the future?
    He buys two cases of beer instead of one.

    How is Colonel Sanders like the typical male?
    All he's concerned with are thighs, breasts, and legs.

    How many men does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
    One. He just holds it up there and waits for the world to revolve around him.

    What did God say after creating man?
    "I can do much better than that."

    What do men consider a gourmet restaurant?
    Any place without a drive-up window.

    What do you call a man with half a brain?
    Gifted.

    What do you do with a bachelor who thinks he's God's gift to women?
    Exchange him.

    What should you give a man who has everything?
    A woman to show him how to work it.

    What's a man's idea of honesty in a relationship?
    Telling you his real name.

    What's the best way to force a man to do sit-ups?
    Put the remote control between his toes.

    What's the difference between Big Foot and an intelligent man?
    Big Foot's been seen several times.

    What's the smartest thing a man can say?
    "My wife says..."

    Why are all dumb blonde jokes one-liners?
    So men can understand them.

    Why did God create man before woman?
    Because you're always supposed to have a rough draft before you create your masterpiece.

    Why do female black widow spiders kill the males after mating?
    To stop the snoring before it starts.

    Why do jocks play on artificial turf?
    To keep them from grazing.

    Why do men need instant replay on TV sports?
    Because after 30 seconds they forget what happened.

    Why does it take 100 million sperm to fertilize one egg?
    Because not one will stop and ask for directions.

    Why is psychoanalysis a lot quicker for men than for women?
    When it's time to go back to his childhood he's already there.

    Hi needkarma, where have you been? Good to hear from you.

    I don't hate men at all, but just as most men like 'blond' jokes, I like a good laugh at 'men' jokes now and then.

    I hope you know me better than that dear.

    Awww, thanks Chicky! I will email you later, and give you my # too.

    This whole thing with my ex still pops up every now and then. The whole thing with my vehicles being torn up and the vandalism in my yard, which just so happened it wasn't him the last time.

    I get prank calls in the middle of the night. I was getting them for a long time, but they seemed to stop for quite awhile until lastnite/morn. They are always in between midnite and 7am. Most often I get them around 3am... that's when the bars let out. It's always from a private #, and the cops have records at least an inch thick, of all of these calls. They haven't done anything to trace them, and the company will not let me do it. They always tell me to call the police, and then the police tell me to call the company. It's a great big circle jerk.

    What happened lastnight to scare me, was my phone rang right around 3am. Private # again. They called back many times, and the last time I answered, they whispered "I'm watching you". Niki was outside, and all of a sudden she went crazy barking! I very cautiously opened the door to let her in, and she came running in, still barking at the door. I tried to lock my door, and found there was something wrong with my lock. It just wouldn't latch. So right now, I have got a bunch of furniture blocking my back door!

    It freaked me right out! I have an unlisted #, so I'm figuring this is the work of my ex again. I don't know why he just doesn't get a life! But he's done some bad things to me before, and it scares me!

    Oh God, I wish I could afford that right now. Even just the plane ticket, and a bit of spending money. I've got friends in Englewood and Venice, and of course my parents have their house there too. But, I just can't afford it, and it just sucks having to put up with this crap all of the time.

    Sorry... Did I say "GOOD MORNING"? :) I'm just a bright ray 'o sunshine, aren't I?

    I better go crash for a bit like I said before! Have a good day all!

    Starby, that makes me angry. There is no way to escalate the call you have into the police? That's harassment and borderline stalking - I'm appaled that they won't do anything.

    I told you starbs, call the cops and say, "Oh, don't worry about that guy...I just shot him and hid him somewhere in my house."

    That's when they start doing stuff.

    Sorry you had another roughie starbs.

    Hello biggie. Hello hc. I was awakened this morning around 7am with the sound of what can only be described as a jet engine next to my bedroom.. . it was the construction people, putting in another elevator next door.. . fan... tastic. I'm off for a run. Be good kids. I'll check back in later.
