from fuschiashock :
i've only read two alphabet mysteries but yes.
from resistivity :
you can find me at e-voice.diaryland.com Had to run from someone pretty quickly. Thanks for asking :)
from sboxgirl :
If you're still doing the rape project, there is a french film called Irreversible with a 20 minute rape scene (man-woman). This is one of the worst I've seen, more shocking than any man-man rape.
from dani-lou :
The General's Daughter also has some disturbing scenes. Best wishes, Dani.
from madamepierce :
hi -- re: the Brains Afire thing, no -- my name should still be there. Do you want me to try to join again?
from mollyx :
McDevil's! Oh my. I totally adore that and I adore you for telling me that I can JUST buy the toys and nothing else. I was wondering about that, anyway, cuz the movie is PG-13 and why would Happy Meals have the toys? Maybe they would do the Burger King thing (with the Simpson watches) and sell the item with value meals? Not that it matters anymore, so yay! OK, I need to go find someone willing to set foot in McDevil's (hee) so I can buy pirate toys. You are seriously awesome.
from tryingtobe :
HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY birthday, my dear. 30's are so incredibly much better than 20's, so much so, that they don't mind ignoring the blatant disregard of proper grammer in this sentance. Wishing that all your dreams come true...xo
from mrs-roboto :
Oh hon, it probably isn't as bad as you think. You are not a failure as far as I can see. You're sweet and funny and insightful. Now come on back, please?
from theshivers :
you are not stupid nor a failure...that said, i understand your feelings and i wish i could say something to make you feel better...i'll miss you..
from ris-que :
Please don't chalk your feelings up to PMS. Corporate homogenization of the world sends me into a rage on an almost daily basis. I know that feeling that it's inevitable, but it shouldn't be.
from bellis :
Hey, you... I'm all warm and glowy from your message. I've moved--- my blog is at http://onmytiptoes.glitterkitty.net/blog.html, and the journal is at http://onmytiptoes.glitterkitty.net/kof/. I was hiding out there for a little bit, but not anymore. Also, I'm so flattered that you were looking for me. :)
from sunnykins :
why it sure is!! ya know, i was actually just thinking about you the other day! How the hell are ya?
from heidiann :
Hi there. Sorry I didn't get back to you right away. My BUST screen name is heidiann (very creative of me, I know). I've only been signed up in the lounge for a week or so and haven't posted much. It's so strange, it's as if I'm feeling shy because I'm in a room with much cooler women who all seem to know each other! But I'm sure I'll be a posting fool once I get my sea legs. =)
from kayemess :
I can't find your Guestbook so I'll have to leave something here - I went to my PO Box for the first time in 13 billion years last week and not only found a Christmas Card from you (with a signature from Haven!) but a really lovely letter and I'm sorry if you might be thinking you had sent them into the void, but I have them now and Thank you! and a reply is forthwith...
from cuillin :
I just applied for your Sassy ring; I won second place in their fiction contest like 10 years ago, so if for some reason I'm not accepted, I'll throw a very sassy fit! ;) I remember Christina Kelly calling me and saying "we haven't decided who the winner is yet but you're one of them; what's your social security number?" So I was all psyched to be first place, but instead I just won 500 bucks worth of L.A. Gear crap. Oy vey! At any rate, it's nice to see someone who appreciates that dead mag...I was a subscriber since '88. Take care, S.
from project2501 :
Well, I tried to apply again, and it just told me I already had. So...dunno. Don't know how to un- and then re-apply, so I guess I give up. Thanks anyway.
from project2501 :
Actually I was trying to join the Bloom County ring...which I see is also yours. I can't figure how I ended up on the brains-afire list since I picked the BC ring out of the rings directory, not through your profile. Bizarro, but oh well. Could I join the Bloom County ring? Or should I try and join through the members area again? Thanks, sorry for the mix-up.
from project2501 :
I hate to say this, but I don't know what BUST is...and unless it's an obscure euphamism for AIM or Yahoo, I don't have a screenname for it either. Sorry...did I just fail a test?
from lynnbomb :
Lissen, baby: the reason you perceive that nobody talks about their heart-rending relationship questions is because a) people want to present a false front about their relationships or b) people are so exhausted by these thoughts and their accompanying arguments that to merely mention them makes you weary. I believe a combination of both makes you perceive that everyone else is hunky-dory. Lady, you are being honest about it. That has always been your hallmark, your strength. Everyone else sweeps it under the rug, but trust me, under the rug, it ain't pretty. The existence of the crud under the rug doesn't mean you are doomed, by the way. Your honesty about how you feel will be your saving grace. Take care, sweetie. xoxoxoxo lynn
from mizlizzy :
Hi Sarra! I just wanted to invite you to check out a new idea that I'm working on: http://livejuicy.diaryland.com -- it's going to be a compendium of positive thoughts, inspiring stories and other creative stuff. I will be taking creative writing contributions from readers that I will put on livejuicy so if you have anything to submit you can find out how I'm doing it on the site. Hope you like the idea. I'm hoping it will turn out well. Lizzy
from dustygrrl :
Hey stranger, Happy Birthday! Dusty Alex
from cptninternet :
sorry about the slow response. . .my screen name is, uh, cptninternet.
from lynnbomb :
hey lady, guess what? I ALWAYS read your diary. I love how you write. I don't leave many notes, but it looks like I'm gonna have to so that I can keep enjoying that lovely Cere-goodness. luv, Lynn B.
from sweet-madnes :
Well, *I* read your diary. Of course, I would switch to live journal if I had to but I just want you to know that I read it here. I don't think you're a bad correspondant or diaryist. As a matter of fact, *I* have a postcard here half written to you. It has been sitting on my desk for months, I think. Delete those 22,000 emails. You'll never read them all. And you'll never respond to them all. Just free yourself from their tyranny!! G

from soopafreek :
You swooned for *me*? Dahling, I loooove you! You are one fabulous chicadee. I hope that you keep writing here. I must admit to being neglectful of my buddy list, but you are one that I keep coming back to.
from sweet-madnes :
Hiya! I think I would be crushed under the weight of the world if I was doing that intake job. It's hard enough giving poor people physical therapy. Do take care of yourself. g
from perineumgirl :
Hiya... the bust name is "besubversive"... thanks. xoxo
from hevens2 :
Yay for meds!! I'm such a believer in them, even if I'm more than a little sick of taking them myself. Still, I probably wouldn't be here and in one piece if it wasn't for them. I think they can really help give you that little boost to get yourself started in a better direction. MWAH! Oh, and now I wanna do a list thingy, I just read Suds's version and I think I'll just have to be a big copycat. XOXO
from sweet-madnes :
mmmm Wellbutrin. I take it too. I'm just now getting some weird side effects, but I never really noticed them before. Anyway, watch out for anxiety and headaches. I'm on a pretty high dose though, 450 mg. g
from itrymybest :
oh wow, you added me to your favorite diaries list!!!! i'm so so flattered. i can't wait until i'm regularly on a computer that uses IE so your diary will actually render properly and i can read it regularly.
from broken-glass :
Totally identify with what you said, as usual. (March 28th.) I'm thinking about moving to "natural" meds. Not yet 100% decided, though.
from hevens2 :
hey lady, I'm so glad you don't HATE me!! hee hee, if miss lemon sent you the misguided e-mail let me know, I don't have time to do it again at this moment and the computer I'm using keeps going off line so I don't want to write it in my diary. Anyway, I was looking at your newer entries and I was blown away by a lot of similarities between us, for example, the fact that you often use song lyrics, etc for titles, me too! There's other stuff too, but can't think of it at the moment. Anyway, you rock. XOXO
from itrymybest :
hey, thanks for listing me on your pitas page! i'm glad you're still reading. i'd be reading your diary if i could get it to render properly in netscape.
from kayemess :
Miss Lovely Lady: Could you please e-mail me your new address so I can send you a real life letter? Pretty please? You can use purplecrayon@telus.net...thank you so, I hope you're okay!!!
from sweet-madnes :
just read your latest entry. How can you be lonely when you have this mysterious stranger (me) now nearly stalking you by reading all your archives? Just kidding. But you are in my thoughts. I wish you weren't lonely.
from sweet-madnes :
thanks for the note. It does just help to have someone commiserate, even just via a diaryland note. Thanks :)
from lovey-jones :
Hey I just moved too. I hate moving. Ick. Anyway, my hub and I had to put the 4 year old (OK, so it doesn't sound so endearing... on Sunday she'll be the 5 year old. :) Naw, I love her to pieces...) anyway, back to the point... we put her in private school. She is just in pre-kindergarten and is learning stuff I don't remember learning til 2nd grade. Not to mention her spanish lessons each day. Maybe you should look into private school for the Havenmeister. Love, Lovey.
from nonce :
Just read your entry.

Your little visit from the maintenance man is shocking. I'd suggest you take them to court...

Then again, seeing as you are moving...

Still that is a breach of your tenant/landlord agreement.

Also your kid's school stuff...that is crummy.
The thought of kids slacking off in class because they are smart cookies and school is retardedly slow is painful to hear...

I hope you can keep him challenged and stimulated....extra-ciricular schooling?

Sorry my first read of your diary was crap news. I look forward to the next read...and hopefully...more gleeful news.
from lelupeepoo :
MWAH MWAH MWAH!
from aineko9 :
hey cerebrate. my name on bust is cristijl. see you on the boards.
from oh-sweet-pea :
thanks for letting me into the bust ring! whoooo! my name is kickpleat in bust, btw. hooray!
from wicked1969 :
Darlin! Thanks for letting me in! I looked for a guestbook to sign for you, but didn't see one. *Pouty face* Duncan was right, you do look kinda cat like, all mystical and sensual. Good luck on the new place! MWAH MWAH MWAH!
from itrymybest :
thank you so much for the note . . . i'm so flattered. and thanks for reading. i'd be returning the favor, but i can't get your site to work in netscape 4.7 . . . clearly i need a new computer, as my laptop won't run ie 5.
from sweet-madnes :
I figured out the problem I was having with your diary. I was using Netscape 4.6. Now I'm using 6.2 for Mac, and I think the site looks a lot more like you intend. :) duh. Gerri
from lelupeepoo :
Cerebrate! I've missed you!!!! MWAH MWAH MWAH MWAH!
from girllogic :
hope you are doing okay.
from dharmaqueen :
ps. i added you to my AIM buddy list. hope that's ok.
from gnewfry :
I'd love to exchange a postcard!! Gerri
from lizabeth1st :
my profile name is 'bethbrew' and i spend most of my time in the bust lounge:media whores section. ah, the calling of like to like :) It's cool that you run bust and sassy.
from fatnotgaunt :
Thankyou for your note. I anticipated that when I stripped my profile of favorites that my name would be deleted from profiles but that happened a few days after I closed down my diary and was eventually a reaction to all of those events. Half way through my diary I think I gave up hoping that I would find a living, breathing place to transcribe the things I thought through diaryland. I thought I would like to say though that I love you diary and I wish you and your family all my best wishes for your future. Love, Kate
from oh-sweet-pea :
hooray!! a happy christmas!! phew ;)
from lynnbomb :
Thank you for the Christmas card. You are lovely and I'm proud of you because although I like getting and the idea of giving cards, I'm having one hell of a time getting them out this year. Go you! luv, l.bo
from girllogic :
nice christmas songs list. i like the "do they know it's christmas?" song, too. esp. the boy george part. but my favorite, favorite, favorite christmas song is the pogues' "fairytale of new york" shane macgowen's voice is so great- like lumpy gravy.
from jasminegurl :
thanks for hooking me up with the bust diaryring.i also must say that i love your diary!your latest entry made my day.yeah for good lovin's!
from lynnbomb :
Oooh, married make-out sessions! They are the best, cos you already know what sex is and know how to fuck and so it's just win-win, you know? I think married make-out sessions are one of the strongest bonding events I've ever had with the husband. They sorta bend the rules, somehow. And no one has softer lips than he does! I am glad you had a good day. I am glad you have Duncan with you. I am glad that you are not minimizing your trauma. Only a few times of assault? Umm, no, that's not something to minimize, darling. You can expect NOTHING bad to happen to you and still be reasonable, I say. Glad you're working with a sooper dooper counselor. Glad glad glad for you Cere. luv, Lynnie
from digitalia :
Hi Sarra, I just read your latest entry and I got tears in my eyes thinking that I could be so mean to someone who is so much like me. Digi
from mel-ilsa :
Hi! Thanks for your reply to my request to join the Bust ring. My name on the late, lamented Bust Lounge was ilsashewolf. I can't wait to be associated with you fine Busty gals!
from elliejames :
Nah, I'd eventually force you to dislike me. It's in the blood I think. My blood. I don't know what I'm writing. I'm sorry. I meant to say: thank you.
from lynnbomb :
What do writers do? They write? Question: Do you write? Answer: Yes. There you have it. Cere, if you feel lousy now, think of how you'd feel if you couldn't express that in words. You are an amazing writer. You spin grief into gold. This is something nobody can ever take from you. Remember that. luv, Lynnie
from jasminegurl :
silly me...my bust name is purplepixie...it would be great to join the bust diaryring...i love busting and i love you girls!
from elliejames :
It's me again. I know you're probably sick of me. I don't blame you. I just wanted to say that you are definitely a writer. I say so, therefore it is true. Oh, yeah, and I wanted to ask you something. Would you like to do a food column? I was going to do it, but I've got a lot on my own plate. I was thinking it could be a review of new products or things you like to eat or recipes or anything. If not, that's okay, too.
from elliejames :
I've sent you a coupla emails at your bloomes address, but you don't answer. Just wanted to make sure you got them. Luph EJ
from itrymybest :
i haven't been able to make a rings page work properly yet. go ahead and remove me from the running for the daria ring. sorry about that.
from lynnbomb :
Dear Cere: you feel the same way i do about the food -- an addiction you can't kick but that you have to learn to live with in moderation. What the fuck is that? I don't know. I just don't know. All I know is that it is hard. I could quit smoking cigarettes no problem -- just don't buy them! But food -- food is a fucking ass-kicker. Just know that I feel you, baby. I really do. Luv, Lynnie
from oh-sweet-pea :
oh you definitely need more than a bowl of vietnamese soup and some thrift shopping, but these small tokens can make you feel better....even if it's just for the moment. you seem like a very strong women and you will get through it all. ((((hugs)))))
from pennycentury :
Oh, Sarra, I'm so sorry about what's happening to you right now. I love your diary. I love the template. Email me any time, you know.
from sheherazade :
hehe, great to know my "kick in the butt" inspired you. whenever the end of the month comes around, i get all eager to archive my entries. perhaps i should get a life? yes. ;-) thanks for the notes you left! i love it when people leave me notes.
from seabird78 :
cere- that story about the birth of your son was touching beyond words. If I wasn't at work I'd be sniffling out of control right now. But in a good way.
from oh-sweet-pea :
thanks for the nice words! lists are fantastic (i need more glittery barrettes) and your stories are truely beautiful.
from lynnbomb :
Dear Cere: what a fascinating last entry about the Collective! You should write a story about it -- so many twists and turns in the drama. I am very happy for you cos it seems like things are going to change for the better and it sounds like D. did a sincere job of explaining the situation to all. kisses -- Lynn
from lynnbomb :
umm, "go fuck a rabid buffalo" is the best. I absolutely lurve it. this is why I read your diary every day, babes. and I thought I was the only one who had the "I'm-too-fat-to-meet-new-people" hang-up. good to know I'm not alone. luv, Lynn
from oh-sweet-pea :
hello. stumbled upon your diary. it makes me swoon.
from broken-glass :
Yay! Go red! :) I hate the whole temp thing too, the way they will hire a temp worker, then replace him or more usually her with another temp, then another, then another, just so they never have to pay benefits. Disney does that too. Fuckers.
from broken-glass :
I've never left you a note? That's appalling. I'm correcting the situation at once.
from subversive :
Hey, Cere, I love the new template. And I'm envious of your dream recall - I usually remember some tiny little snippet from the last few seconds of the dream and try as I might, I can't recapture any of the details that went before, I only know they existed, somewhere...
from chatnoire :
Health insurance people, and those who administer it SUCK ASS. I am without health insurance myself. I feel your pain, but I know you're pissed much more, because it's easy to ignore health problems when they are your own, but your child? Dammit. I cannot tell you why socialism is wrong, because deep in my heart, I know it makes more fucking sense than greedy fucking bastards like our corporate world. fuck. Hugs to you, Cere.
from lynnbomb :
Cere, aren't you glad it's Friday? The Week That Was is coming to a close. Have I told you that I think you are being fantastic for volunteering? I think you are doing a good thing for others AND yourself. This is what I wish for you: that there are fewer obstacles and the ones that remain you can give the finger to in style and that you will put your writing skills to work in your advantage. Spin that grief into gold, baby! luv, Lynn p.s. I submitted to join Brains Afire, thanks for the invite. :)
from chatnoire :
Cere, hey hon, tis moi. I was reading your page from the day before your b-day. That guy sounds exactly like my best friend's guy. ((((cere)))) It's so tough, on girlfriends even, when the guys around are asses. I just wanted to send out a super duper big hug to you, cuz everyone needs hugs. XOXO Chat
from thebot :
Wow. Thanks for going the Washington State Resident ring. I've only read one page, but you have such style. I think I'm hooked. I have another ring that I would really like for you to consider joining. Would you mind cruising it and seeing what you think? It's bite me, and it isn't what it sounds like. Thanks, Carla
