I figured my "wait it out" period for quitting DU is about 4 days.
I usually plan to quit on an average of once a month, except when I start posting here daily...which then it turns into a minute to minute "get me the fuck away from this place" mode.


And the thing that really really really makes me want to stay away is that no one notices when I am not here, thus causing me to have temper tantrums causing me to lose my cell phone in the supermarket when I leave in a rage because they didn't stock egg bagels when I WANT THEM!

Sheesh, I am so into my own mental illness.

3. Egg Bagels?
Eww! Why would you ruin a perfectly good bagel by adding egg to it?

:P

It really is too bad that we only see each other online. It would be so much easier to really keep in touch and know how everyone's doing if we met over coffee and talked face to face.

23. I've never heard of a french toast bagel
but I'll find it! I promise! :7

There are several kosher places nearby that make daily fresh NY Bagels. If they don't make it, they'll know who does.

As a matter of fact, I think I'm going to have hummus and tomato on a sesame bagel for lunch. :9

7. Where's Calfornia Peggy? I think she is needed for this sort of situation.
And it's the noisy, not the quiet kids that get noticed around here, but lounge people do look after each other more than elsewhere --so I hope you stick it out.

Besides, when you feel ignored, just post a thread titled,

"Pay attention to me dammit!" and people will respond.

Edited on Thu Dec-13-07 12:59 PM by CreekDog
qualifies as a "drama queen".

40. Well, then. **snort.** That's better. **snort-snort**
I'm feeling very Edith-Ann, right about now.

Did you toss out your momentary snit-fit about thinking of leaving DU?

I, for one, would miss you terribly. You and your envy-producing hair.

36. Well, FYI, I don't think that particular Hess gas station is a 4-star establishment.
Not absolutely positive, but reasonably sure.
