Sorry don't really think I can help there Rosita.

I haven't really been in touch with the PF 3rd party scene for a while, so I don't really know what's out there, as good stuff to be inspired/swipe from.

As for pain…
I'm in the wimpy end of the spectrum, by being somewhat pain and heat sensitive.

Edit:
Eh think I might turn in early.
*sigh*
Feeling mopey, tired and lonely again today.

I'm light sensitive. Too much sunlight and it hurts my eyes. And vulnerable to cold. I get cold easily. Pain...I generally try to tell it to go sit in the naughty corner.

Yeah, that me too.

I was just sharing a bed with a friend, who toss and turns a lot in his sleep and he proceed to elbow me right on the nose, which gave me a gushing nose-bleed.
Still I count it as one of the rudest awakenings I've gotten thus far ^^'

Ok phew. I didn't lose any sanity points for knowing.

Now I'd dearly love to arrest you under Section 27A(1a)of the Miscellaneous Offences (Public Order and Nuisance) Act, Chapter 184, stating that anyone appearing nude in a public place shall be guilty of an offence and shall be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding $2,000 or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 3 months or to both, but I'm not sure how I'm going to make an arrest while not looking at you.

Congratulations the Game Hamster! Hope everything goes well!

Assuming it's over a meal:

Also, who's picking the restaurant etc - have you tried the food/at least checked out the reviews to see if the food standards are up to scratch?

Restaurant is a mexican place a friend said was good... I don't think either of us have been there before.

The Exchange

If you or her can't take spice, be careful with habanero peppers or sauces containing them. If you overdose anyway, go for milkshakes/ice-cream.

Check with the friend what's good and if you run out of inspiration getting tacos for appetizers shouldn't go wrong.

After that probably burritos, and churrios (if you guys are sweet tooths).

I don't really think we are going to be getting anything we can't handle.
P.s. when I do check out a Mexican place I order a tamale and a chile Relleno. those dishes will tell you right quick how authentic the place is, if you know what you are looking for.

Howdy, FaWtLies!!

I actually *did* read the intervening 427+ posts this time. Weird, right?

1) I've been working 12-hour shifts in a non-environmentally-controlled manufacturing facility, on a concrete slab, under a metal roof, in the heat and humidity of north-central Mississippi for the past several weeks after severely straining (very nearly tearing) my right calf muscle in a freak Memorial Day weekend accident. I totally disagree with the suggestion that we menfolk can't push through pain.

Now, when I strained my back in the *middle* of that particular recovery-while-working process, we had another thing entirely going on. I woke up to an empty house one morning, and it took me AN HOUR to crawl across the bed (I slept propped against the wall), into the floor, through the hallway, and into the bathroom to pull myself to standing on the vanity. *That* was a "fun time". Missed two days of work because of that. Not so with the leg, though. :D

2) Mort, you're a lovely young gal. :)

3) lisamarlene, I recommend practicing your "conversational dodgewrench" skills, as well as working on a Whoo! NASCAR!!! invisibility SLA (yes, the verbal component is a **must**, and if you can sell it as a 'war cry' of sorts, you'll have good chances of handling typical Texan ELs).

But on a slightly more serious note about your lifestyle upheaval: I'm proud of you and yours for making such a decision. I hope that it results in better things for you and your family. In fact, I'm fairly certain that it **will** have very positive results. Godspeed!

4) Glad you have new employment, Icyshadow!! :)

5) Take care of that foot, Kjel!

I hold to Robert Downey, Jr.'s Sherlock Holmes assessment of horses: "Dangerous at both ends, and tricky in the middle," but it's awesome that you, too, have found rewarding work.

6) cap, your continued exploits in landscaping always bring a smile to my face. Thank you for sharing!! :D

. . . .

>.>

<.<

That's all I can remember at the moment. I'll fall back into my typical patterns, for the present.

I've missed you guys!! (Totally my fault for not being around; nice to be back.)

sounds like lisamarlene has some competition.

The general totally should not get a fawtl account and come in here talking snack to lisamarlene, which would result in an arguement. That would be bad.

And if that doesn't work, hyperventilate, pull out your hair, throw everything into random boxes, and hope for the best.

Not that being able to do stupid s@+& like that makes me tough or anything, we all have our own threshold for pain

Yeah I remember in highschool I had a ear nose and throat doctor examining m and he mention I had a deviated septum and something else and he said It should be causing me a lot of pain and was surprised I hadn't said anything. I had no idea what he was talking about. I don't If I was just used to it or what but its weird. Pain is soooo subjective. all kinds of pain really physical mental etc.

That why I personally even though I might think I've had a harder life then someone you still take their pain and trauma seriously they might have a different threshold then you.

I'm now an Aunt Agony Mort for my brother's kitchen woes in Arizona. He's preparing his food for a week, then he'll microwave to reheat when he wants to eat it. Apparently for a single person it's not worth the trouble to cook everyday. So he's got a bucket list of stuff in his fridge and I'm giving recipes on what to do with it.

That's pretty much what I do. Mainly so that I can relax and not have to rush around trying to cook every night. For instance, this week I made a slow-cooker FauxBQ pork roast and am having a sandwich and some french fries each night.


I made french dip sandwich tonight put a beef roast in a crockpot for 8 hours on low with 2 cans of french onion and 1 can of beef sonne soup. Then you get your juices int eh crock pot strain em then reduce em by half in a pot for the au ju. SOOOOO good. (ofcourse add bread and cheese.)


That does sound good. I may have to steal that recipe.

Playing poker is pretty much the only valid reason to wear sunglasses inside. Otherwise people think you are either weird or trying to hide the fact that you are high.

I suggest searing the roast on all sides before you throw it in the crock pot too. I didn't think this helped at first but after experimenting with it the mean ends up being so much more tender.

People get offended when you tell them how to raise their children. Unless you write a book. Then they will pay you to do so.

Now there is a true statement if I ever heard one. That why I like to phrase my suggestions with "You know I read somewhere that"

I have managed to acquire a stroopwafel. At teatime, the experimentation shall begin. I shall leave it on top of my teacup which has boiling hot spearmint and camomile tea in it for 5 min then eat it up to see if it's as addictive as Woran says. Stay tuned for the research results!

They cost SGD $1 per piece on offer, otherwise it's 1.20.

quiet night. Its weird normally I would work on my book but now that I have submitted it. I just have to wait... So now I need other things to do during this time. I guess I should find a book to read. (after doing something for a year you get pretty used to it.)

My go-to is the steak fajita taco salad. Not really traditional, I know, but I think they are darn tasty. Sometimes I'll get some kind of burrito instead.


I prefer fajita's and quesadilla to tacos.

I’m not the kind of baker/cook that some FAWTL dudes are (LM, I’m looking at you)=P The stuff that comes out of my kitchen will be tasty, but don’t expect any fancy decorations, sauces, dressings etc. It’s very down to earth and simple. All my cakes come without any frosting because they were made to be rations, so I rather no frosting, so it’s easier to transport(don’t have to worry about frosting getting all over the place), and also can keep longer (cream needs to be refrigerated and all that). Besides another part of me looks at the sugar and butter involved in the frosting and goes eeeek at the calories :P

The Exchange

Quesadilas seem a little thin on filings for my taste. I prefer more fillings. The fajita has potential though.

I wonder what it’s like to do the home along thing in US. I suppose I’d be a little better off in the cooking department since I can and will cook for myself. Who knows, I might be having orange or banana cake for breakfast everyday, eschewing store bought stuff :P

Or maybe I’d start baking pizza for myself. If there were chickpeas…I could have hummus spread on wraps(if they are available in the supermart), possibly make my own kebabs out of baked chicken…

I'd probably stock my fridge with brie for snacks though.

Autistic children may find haircuts painful


What's the difference between a piano, a tuna, and a pot of glue?

You can tune a piano, but you can't piano a tuna.

Hmm interesting. Good on him. I think I had in mind more of a what if you could feel your hair being cut kind of painful as if it had nerves.

When my grandpa cut my hair it legitimately hurt. he cut hair in the military it was pretty rough and I always got a crew cut.

Hmm You know I was just thinking about the positives and negatives of the behavioral training and autism is one of the big ones that comes up a lot. I've seen some very intensive behavioral therapy over the course of years make truly miraculous effects on children with autism to the point where you wouldn't believe they ever had it in the first place. (when its used it works on about 50% of cases which is staggeringly effective really Its has however been quite awhile since I have updated myself on it however) downside it the price and amount of time invested your talking about 2-3 hours more days then not of a trained professional over the course of years and it needs to start as as young as possible pretty much for better effectiveness.

At the same time there are some psychologists that believe you should instead accept the person as is and not make an attempt to change them. its just a part of who they are. Society should change instead of making them change for society. The whole thing can be pretty interesting. I should look up if there is any research done on the individuals overall happiness after the treatment. It would probably be pretty hard to get a good baseline... I might be rambling

TL/DR: interesting article.


A friend asked me if I was free on Friday. I said "Of course I am. This is 'Murica!!"


Although I almost said "No. I'm cheap, but not free."

I washed the car with my son the other day. It didn't go very well. Next time I think I'll use a sponge instead.


Did you know that they are thinking about banning "The Wave" at sporting events? Apparently too many blondes are drowning.
