Thanks for listening...

7. I agree
Definitely too cold, and not good sandal weather! x(

The bathroom floor is wonderful... I'm pretty much happy every time I see it, LOL. Our new cat is a sweetie, and a princess, and loves to snuggle on laps. In short, pretty much perfect. Plus, she has thumbs, how can you go wrong?!

:loveya:

5. do you remember this song?
I played it a whole lot. Hope things get better for you

Glad to be Unhappy
Fools rush in, so here I am
Awfully glad to be unhappy.
I can't win, but here I am
More than glad to be unhappy.

Unrequited love's a bore, yeah,
And I've got it pretty bad.
But for someone you adore,
It's a pleasure to be sad.

Like a straying baby lamb
With no mama and no papa,
I'm so unhappy, yeah.

Unrequited love's a bore, yeah,
And I've got it pretty bad.
But for someone you adore,
It's a pleasure to be sad.

Like a straying baby lamb
With no mama and no papa,
I'm so unhappy, yeah...

But oh so glad

17. Possibly.
Edited on Tue Feb-13-07 03:25 PM by crim son
I think it's part of being just odd enough that somebody find me date-worthy is a rare thing, and my finding them date-worthy is even more unlikely. Add to that the tendency for love to turn to shit, and there's a very good reason to steer clear of the crush.

But, Prag, it's okay for me, but not for you. You're rather extraordinary and you shouldn't give up on the hunt.

Luckily, I don't think there's a particular smell that will remind me of this crush forever. Luckily. Because smell can be one hell of a memory trigger...

36. Not to make light of your anguish, but...our cat had a crush on our dog.
It's the damndest thing I've ever seen.

Our male cat, Ace, just LUUUUUVED our female German Shepherd, Nasha.
And Nasha could not care less about the fur ball.

Nasha would be curled up and Ace would TRY to get IN there and curly up in the curl and Nasha would get up and walk away.

That cat was NUTS about the dog.
Followed her everywhere.
Head butting and rubbing her legs.
Purring.

And Nasha just. walked. away.
Bitch.

44. what can add to the suckiness is when
the person isn't of the same orientation as you. it got interesting in the navy, that's for sure.*snicker*

Anyway, I never get intense crushes anymore, just fleeting ones!! i pretty much must have gone through crush menopause already!!

Is this part of what they call a "mid-life" crisis?
