OMG - you should SEE what I wear whilst at home typing or working.....I actually DO run out to mailbox in such scroungy attire, speedy fast......like a stealthy, slovenly, ill-kempt middle-aged bullet.

It CAN NOT be worse than what I wear! And, no middle aged bullet here...I am a SLOW slovenly, ill-kempt middle-aged snail. Tonight...choir night...I shall wear my pajamas. No kidding!

[jerseyangel]

Bev--There you are...and with some nice new wordage for us! Never heard of that one, but will incorporate

Gosh--I forget what it was like to get up and get "dressed" in the morning. Of course, I get DRESSED, but just jeans..... I'm sure I would get a from Stepford

[Jestgar]

I feel good. My neighbors go out in their bathrobes.

[~alex~]

nolens volens......must do etymological study on this phrase or can't use it satisfyingly and in good conscience.

Fun new word! I'm not sure if I'm confident on how to properly use it quite yet either.

It reminds me of modus ponens from logic class.

Lots of fun Latin in logic like reductio ad absurdum.

[jerseyangel]

I feel good. My neighbors go out in their bathrobes.

At my previous house, so did I.....

[nikki-uk]

I feel good. My neighbors go out in their bathrobes.

Go out???.....what???...to the shops???.....down the pub????

[DingoGirl]

Um, excuse me, you look QUITE glorious and nothing like ill-kempt in your photo, you SILLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (of course, methinks this is the influence of Mango's Mineral Makeup cult thread)

Gosh--I forget what it was like to get up and get "dressed" in the morning. Of course, I get DRESSED, but just jeans..... I'm sure I would get a from Stepford

I think she is always a bit astonished at me.......I HAVE gone to mailbox in my robe, whilst living here.

I miss Monterey, I made my house into a crazy secret garden, such a HUGE wall of greenery in front - 'twas marvelous.......crazy dog lady w/ overgrown shrubbery..... LOVED IT

I feel good. My neighbors go out in their bathrobes.

This is awesome. I bet all the houses don't match, either. (wait - I did choose to live here, after House of Terror it seemed lovely and safe and......normal :huh; )

OMG - my wacky friend Gail once went through a drive-through in her bathrobe w/ an oatmeal mask on her face.....and she was in her......thirties maybe? I didn't even bat an eye......

SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need help!!!!!!!!! gitcher silly arses over here and HELP ME PAINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

harrumph. hate painting.

My friend Jenn said, in the whole time I"ve known you, you are always saying you need to paint a room...... 'tis true. At any given time there is another room to paint, more curtains to be sewn, more rearranging of artifacts, more furniture to antique and refinish. NEver, ever done.

[Green12]

At my previous house, so did I.....

Well for goodness sakes Patti, get out there and christen your new neighborhood and put your bathrobe on!!!

[dlp252]

Um, excuse me, you look QUITE glorious and nothing like ill-kept in your photo, you SILLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was on my way to church...so far two places where I don't YET wear my pajamas...church and work, although work is getting closer and closer.

I miss Monterey, I made my house into a crazy secret garden, such a HUGE wall of greenery in front - 'twas marvelous.......crazy dog lady w/ overgrown shrubbery..... LOVED IT

Oh, sounds like a lovely Donna kind of place.

more rearranging of artifacts

Not the skull crusher I hope!

[jerseyangel]

SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need help!!!!!!!!! gitcher silly arses over here and HELP ME PAINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll come help you, then you can come and help me I still have several rooms to do

Well for goodness sakes Patti, get out there and christen your new neighborhood and put your bathrobe on!!!

It's a much longer walk to the mailbox here--I used to be able to get out there and back in a few seconds. Too many walkers and joggers in MATCHED OUTFITS here.....I think they'd be horrified at the sight of me in my robe and slippers

[Green12]

Bev!!!!!!

Thanks for the new wordage, but I am just not clever enough to incorporate it into conversation.

I like willy nilly, it's just so much fun to say, rolls right off the tongue.

Oh dear Sillies- I am saddened by the fact (fat?) that I have grown quite UHM...PLUMP since beginning Lyme treatment. Thirty pounds! That's what I get for doing something about nausea on a daily basis and unable to tolerate more than 5 foods at a time. And I can't go out an rin a mile so....you will ALL have to pledge to dedicate helping me laugh off the weight- get out your funnies!

I think snorting is worth 50 calories.

Guffawing is clearly 100.

Laughing out loud...eh...200

Snorting is 250. Ok let's get started!

Guffawing

Oh, this makes me very sad

I've put on 20 lbs PRE lyme treatment. Gah, I can't have another 30 on top of that going through it

I better get to snorting.........

[nikki-uk]

......I HAVE gone to mailbox in my robe, whilst living here.

Well now, in England we have a fabulous invention called a letterbox....letters mail lands in your own hallway lobby!!! ...YES!!......imagine!!!!.......thus negating the need to go out in your dressing gown robe

This is awesome. I bet all the houses don't match, either.

Dear gawd!!!!!!! Matching houses I cannot imagine

OMG - my wacky friend Gail once went through a drive-through in her bathrobe w/ an oatmeal mask on her face.....and she was in her......thirties maybe? I didn't even bat an eye......

Pure class!!! .......I like Gail

SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need help!!!!!!!!! gitcher silly arses over here and HELP ME PAINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Only if there's WINE.....oh..and bring Gail

[jerseyangel]

I miss Monterey, I made my house into a crazy secret garden, such a HUGE wall of greenery in front - 'twas marvelous.......crazy dog lady w/ overgrown shrubbery..... LOVED IT

Forgot to say this before, but this sounds wonderful--I'd feel right at home there!

[jerseyangel]

Oh, this makes me very sad

I've put on 20 lbs PRE lyme treatment. Gah, I can't have another 30 on top of that going through it

I better get to snorting.........

Makes me sad, too

I've put on a good 20 lbs in the last year......can't possibly gain any more

I better get to snorting and guffawing--and lots of laughing out loud.

--I think I feel thinner already!

[dlp252]

I put on 10 pounds since August, but can't pin that one on Lyme...it's the cookies. TWO huge packages of them. Now apparently am stuck with the poundage for life.

Cookies

[elye]

So...loud, gut-twisting guffaws MUST be, like, 300 calories per .

[tom]

......like a stealthy, slovenly, ill-kempt middle-aged bullet.

"middle-aged bullet"

. .. . .. "middle-aged bullet" . .. .wasn't that on Chicken Butt Cooties 4th C.D.??

I never remember which is on what.

(you think I am kidding . . . )

did not!

[DingoGirl]

It's a much longer walk to the mailbox here--I used to be able to get out there and back in a few seconds. Too many walkers and joggers in MATCHED OUTFITS here.....I think they'd be horrified at the sight of me in my robe and slippers

matched outfits. HATE that. Hate especially all the thin young 'uns in their Juicy Couture velour matching sweats. Size 2, usually.

Well, am jealous, to be truthful.

Well now, in England we have a fabulous invention called a letterbox....letters mail lands in your own hallway lobby!!! ...YES!!......imagine!!!!.......thus negating the need to go out in your dressing gown robe

'Tis neither a hallway NOR a lobby here. 'tis the foyer or, front entry hall. wacky.

OMG - Gail is the wackiest of all. Extremely entertaining, you MUST all come and drink wine and paint with us. Oh, except she never helps paint.

"middle-aged bullet"

. .. . .. "middle-aged bullet" . .. .wasn't that on Chicken Butt Cooties 4th C.D.??

I never remember which is on what.

OMG - as I was just running Annie it dawned on me when my neighbors look MOST shocked at my appearance - it's when I"m fixed up. :lol: becuase, I am ALWAYS ALWAYS scrounging around in ugly comfy sweats/pj's or running pants......so when I "clean up" it's slightly astonishing - and a rare sighting - not unlike the Perseid meteor showers or something.................

GOOD GAWD!!!!!!!!!! I am trying to WORK people, now STOP IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jestgar]

I bet all the houses don't match, either.

My two favorite neighbors and I have the littlest, oldest, most run-down houses in the neighborhood. Just down the street they put in brand new 3/4 million dollar houses. I like to hang with my neighbor (in her robe) and her dog and talk about how much our houses are gonna be worth as people with more money than sense buy the houses down the street. Especially happy is the neighbor with the 800 SF house (with a wife and two kids and a big dog ) since his shack house is even closer.

Like I said oh maybe 100 or so pages back Nikki, you have so many fun words across the pond.

Dressing gown sounds so much more fabulous than robe

And does jumper=sweater? I learned that from Bridget Jones

[Mtndog]

I feel good. My neighbors go out in their bathrobes.

Me too!!!!!!!!!! Back door only. Scary perves lurk in these parts!

Go out???.....what???...to the shops???.....down the pub????

OMG- DREAM BAR- a high end martini bar that EVERYONE goes to in their pj's!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG - my wacky friend Gail once went through a drive-through in her bathrobe w/ an oatmeal mask on her face.....and she was in her......thirties maybe? I didn't even bat an eye......

I LOVE GAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bev!!!!!!

Yeah- snorting cocaine! i hear it's a GREAT weight loss supplement Well, i do have several things to blame......chocolate, chocolate, Lyme, chocolate. Hmm...did I forget anything?

I put on 10 pounds since August, but can't pin that one on Lyme...it's the cookies. TWO huge packages of them. Now apparently am stuck with the poundage for life.

Sounds like me....a minute on the lips FOREVER on the hips (especially when it's chips!)

So...loud, gut-twisting guffaws MUST be, like, 300 calories per .

OMG- anything gut twisting is your full calorie intake for the day!

[~alex~]

Today is my one year anniversary of being diagnosed with Celiac disease! I didn't even realize it earlier today. I knew it was about a year ago but I hadn't really being thinking about the actual day. Ryan remembered and surprised me with chocolate fondue for dessert after supper!!! It was just a cute little bowl of melty chocolate with a small amount of fruit so I wouldn't get too much sugar (damn diabetes ) but it made me so happy!

I feel a gazillion times better than I did this time last year and feel so lucky to be diagnosed. I think I may have been somewhat delirious with gluten brain and dehydration on the day of my scopes or at least that's my excuse for not remembering this special date until my fiance pointed it out to me. It feels more exciting celebration than my birthday!

[DingoGirl]

Like I said oh maybe 100 or so pages back Nikki, you have so many fun words across the pond.

'Tis so true, and I always wondered why the terms changed in the US......must look into linguistic shift. Probably becasue too many cultures amalgamated.........but why did a jumper change to sweater? and why in hell is it called a jumper anyway?

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aesthetic Vehicular Felony sighted todya......there is a new Jeep..........extremely disturbing......it was all rounded and stuff, looked like a.........like a ..........well maybe like a Nissan Murano? HORRID - - Jeeps are meant to be SQUARE, NOT rounded!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

<what is the world coming to>

oh - um - did you guys know the peculiar fact that since high school, I know EVERY SINGLE TRUCK and SUV that there is on the road? Can identify all of them.......but have utterly NO idea what kinds of BMW's, Mercedes, Lexus's, or anything else there is....can't tell 'em apart......so anywho this Jeep sighting was particularly troublesome
