from awittykitty :
Sorry for your loss. Hope the next one is as awesome as you are. You deserve only the best. :-)
from awittykitty :
darn, why'd you say "lets obsess about something." Now obsessing about THAT! LOL
from jknight :
And I thought of you when I said it :-D
from hattaway :
Congratulations on the new group. :) Hope you have lots of fun, if nothing else... And who knows? Maybe soon we'll be able to say we knew you when.
from awittykitty :
I like your 5 things you liked from childhood. I might steal it. OK? I too always remember saving pennies so that I could buy ice cream. LOL. :-)
from awittykitty :
Coke for 8 cents a can??? I'm so jealous. I live on that stuff. Glad you had a nice birthday. ;-)
from pookapella :
thank you my dear! *goes to buy cd*
from awittykitty :
Do you need some kind of password to read your live journal? I'm unable to read it.
from awittykitty :
I think you are either dating or aren't. Boundaries are going to be very hard to maintain in that kind of relationship and there is going to be a lot of resentment. Trust me on this one. Good luck.
from awittykitty :
What you have sounds alot like what I had 2 years ago...diverticulitis. It was not pleasant and I lost about 12 pounds in 10 days. If you want to feel sorry for yourself...listen to this. I was having the same thing as you...massive diahhrea, and my toilet got clogged and overflowed right after I had used it, so everything including the watery poop went all over my bathroom and hall floor. It was horrible. Fortunately my apartment maintenance man cleaned it up because the sewer line was clogged and it was their fault. I had only lived in the apt. 2 weeks. Hope you feel better. (((ariawoman))
from jelligyrl :
feel betteer. shit storms suck! :) Love you
from cheflouise :
Mmmm, grage juice!
from jenne1017 :
smooches :) hetero or homor --you choose
from ladust115 :
It's so great to hear you sounding so happy! See, I TOLD you you weren't ugly!!! Now, Harold can back me up on that!
from cheflouise :
See? I'm always right, even when I'm joking.
from awittykitty :
So your honey is Aquarius? Good choice! LOL!:-)
from jenne1017 :
Nothing Freudian about it. Nope. Not at all. Just a typo. That's my story and I am sticking to it!
from ladust115 :
How cute is that picture of you and H? He really is very very cute!
from awittykitty :
Your young man is very fetching Jen. Congratulations. :-)
from ladust115 :
It's never too late to try something different. LOL!
from awittykitty :
Gosh, I hope my therapist never hears about Hurrydate, otherwise he'll be driving me over there and paying for it. That's how much he wants me to date. I would be sooo scared. Hats off to you though, Jennifer. You are really brave! LOL!
from awittykitty :
Hey, my best friend Greg was at the Barry Manilow concert at MSG too. He gave me all the details. He's actually working with Barry on that new musical of his called Harmony. He said he's very nice in person. Glad you enjoyed the show. :-)
from awittykitty :
lunkheads are all alike. We deserve better!!!! ((((ariawoman))))
from madelin :
I sometimes get misty over the zoloft sad rock too..you feel bad for him b/c he's so sad. And you know I am here for you to help you and/or whatever you may need from me. You should have come out to me tonight...
from awittykitty :
guys are such dorks. And why do we care so much? (me gnashing my teeth).
from awittykitty :
I think a plus sized Miss America is a good idea. Maybe someone size 4 instead of size 2. LOL.
from jenne1017 :
I would go back to Shprite and tell them. I've done that before and have gotten my money back and then some!
from jenne1017 :
LOL -- glad I am not the only crazy one out there ;)
from awittykitty :
I once hit a squirrel on the way to work and was so distraught I had to call in sick. I think I cried for like 6 hours.
from wonka1106 :
I hit a bird once too. Feathers flew everywhere. I felt sick the rest of the day. So sad.
from jelligyrl :
I had a suicidal squirrel once. He decided to cross the street whtn I was driving. Right under the wheel and it was crunch, splat, etc. I felt so bad that I couldn't stop. I think it's the same thing with your bird. They're crazy I tell ya, Crazy! :)
from ladust115 :
Yay for no more little fredericks lurking around in your uterus. Happy anniversary!
from gembrat :
Yes, The Blanks are a group that perform on "Scrubs" once in a while. Sam plays "Ted", a recurring character & I guess on the show they are Ted's Band.
from gembrat :
HouseHunters, huh? I like Double Agents, not that I will ever be in the price bracket most of them show.
from awittykitty :
Man, I just want to drive down to Jersey and pop him in the nose. What a jerk. Sounds like you were strong though. Good for you!
from ladust115 :
Just like when you went to interview for your current job, you followed your gut instinct and it was right. I'm sure the same holds true for the townhouse.
from jelligyrl :
RECTAL?
from awittykitty :
they always come crawling back. Be strong, ok?
from wonka1106 :
BECKLE
from gembrat :
Husband spent a portion of tonight reinforcing the cellar ceiling beams. Why? So, the teens can play DDR in house again. The standing floor model, available for a couple 100 on E-bay, is on their X-mas list. Yes, we are that insane! Now if I could only do it myself.
from awittykitty :
I am soooo jealous on the Hugh Jackman thing. He's gorgeous (love the dark hair/dark eyes combo). Lucky you. Also shirtless and pantless! Whee! :-)
from awittykitty :
stop with the FAT thing, missie. If you look at all the beautiful works of art throughout history, you will notice only one thing.... NO SKINNY CHICKS. Us well rounded beauties are SO MUCH BETTER. And this may sound weird, but you might consider looking at yourself, as a whole, more often. You might find something you like....you never know. :-)
from size18dream :
Hi, couldn't get to your guestbook....I will be there tomorrow! I can't wait to finally meet you. Although Maggie might feel a little wierd since she knows I write about her in my diary..and you read it... this is going to be interestng. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, it's 12:09am... WOO HOO
from gembrat :
Hooray for DDR! Our floors simply won't handle 3 teenagers doing it though. They love it. As for turning 30 - Happy early b-day! Think of where you are at 30 compared to others (jobwise, healthwise, etc.). Have you done some of what you dared to dream? Do you still have dreams to look forward to? I know I do. I'll pass on what my older sis-in-law told me when I turned 30... you're heading into the 10 years of sexual peak. Good family, good friends, good health! Be blessed.
from awittykitty :
(clearing my throat- hruumpph) Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear ARIIIIAAAAAWOMAN, Happy birthday (a day early) to YOU! don't worry about your thirties....the best is yet to come! :-)
from spaltor :
yay denis deyoung. sooooo kick ass! :) ...and don't forget to go see shrek 2 on your birthday! love you.
from paintedgray :
damn straight! friends was the shit! i get all teary eyed just thinking about the friends departure. :( happy writing! -deb (check me out!)
from awittykitty :
Having it out with CB is actually really brave, and you should be proud of yourself. There is nothing wrong with crying. And as far as therapy. You just have to find the right person and then when you do, you can start healing. Hang in there. (((ariawoman)))
from madelin :
I'm glad you are feeling better, happy to hear that you went out and *hopefully* started to make some new friends and ECSTATIC that you won $75! woo hoo.
from awittykitty :
gee, we must have been separated at birth. I feel the same way, about walking in public with a guy. Once when Married Guy and I went to Barnes and Noble together, I just felt so cool, walking around with a guy. Nobody had to know he didn't belong to me, it just felt good to "be with somebody". p.s. having "wars" with these guys is really difficult too. and I know exactly what you mean when you say that.
from madelin :
If you are going to be bored to tears singing and performing with them, then I would not do it b/c you could start to hate it and then be miserable - and he's your boss...so why cross that line and potential make things difficult for you.
from jenne1017 :
It's a whole new world out there, baby -- size wise that is. My goal size is a 12...I don't know what I will do when I reach it!?!?!
from awittykitty :
I agree on the Average Joe thing. Go for the empty headed, money hungry glamour chick who will dump your ass after a big divorce settlement. Snort. Grrr! Guys are so stupid sometimes!
from jelligyrl :
Glad you made it back and had fun. :) I'll be online tonight. No working late. Yay! :) Can't wait to hear all about it. :)
from awittykitty :
I would probably annoy the heck out of my kids by telling them I loved them, hugging them and telling them how wonderful they are all the time. That is soooooo important to do when they're young, because it affects us the rest of our lives!! Oh well, at least I can lavish love on my kitty Sierra :-)
from madelin :
I'd keep the wireless joysticks - being limited by the wire sucks.
from lilclownie :
Improper spelling and grammar gets my goat as well. Especially "it's" and "its." If people are chatting through a typing/reading medium, it can't hurt to learn a few of those rules...
from ladust115 :
Yay for singing with a group!! What amazing fun! Wish we were all gonna get together again soon. Do you think Boge and Susan can come to NYC with me this summer??? The big city would never be the same!
from gembrat :
Jenn, I am the same way. Once I'm up singing, I'm in my groove. Ask me to speak to my parents & my knees are shaking /voice is quaking. I hold notecards in my hands just to focus. Strangely, noone seems to notice except me - other then my face being flushed & the beads of sweat running down my brow. *G* Enjoy your 'date' with Mad!
from gembrat :
Lot's of places on-line selling it in ranges of $15-30. Plus, Ebay has one up with a buy it now price of $10 - if you feel like checking it out. I am in awe of your ability to remember the songs/dialogue in the original. *G*
from gembrat :
Both my boys say it is better than the original - except for the bathroom part that they found highly amusing in Parappa 1. I don't remember it specifically, but I remember making the cake. We only paid $16 for it brand new at BJ's Warehouse though.
from gembrat :
Jenn, are you the fellow Pella that mentioned Parappa? We bought the Parappa 2 for the Playstation 2. Trying to decide if I like it better than the other one.
from awittykitty :
Here comes Ann Landers again. I'm still working on loving myself and I'm 45, but it really helps to have at least one person in your life (preferably male, at least in my case) who makes you feel sexy, fun and pretty regardless of how you feel. Chin up, kiddo. :-)
from awittykitty :
e-mails are tricky. I've swam some tricky waters with Married Guy in those. They're usually based on real feelings that haven't been expressed in person. BUT>>>> It sounds like cute boy is a sarcastic jerk nonetheless. You deserve nicer friends Jen...not just people who are nearby and available for "fudding." Cute Boy...Fud-You. :-)
from bluewillow29 :
He needs to get a damn clue. "115 instead of 150"???? Then telling you that you talk to much???? I'd have two words for him... "Fuck off!" But that's just me ;-) ~tonya
from gembrat :
CB needs to re-check the whole male sensitivity (or in his case insensitivety) thing. You try being honest & he either throws it back or makes jests about your feelings. Little boy grow up. Or we can introduce him to what's her name (strong black woman, or is it African-American?) on the "Apprentice" - so glad I'm not alone in my opinion of her.
from awittykitty :
hey, hey, hey...none of that fat, ugly chick stuff. Obviously cute guy still wants to be friends, because you are obviously a fun person to be with....so pipe down there!
from bluewillow29 :
I'm sorry you're still under the weather. But at least you're not a big dork like me... I'll be sitting home alone & I'm healthy. I just have no life... {sigh} I hope you feel better soon! ~tonya
from spaltor :
'ello lovelie. i know you're probably hearing this a lot, but high fever and breathing trouble are symptoms of that "new, deadly flu virus." so be careful, cause i love you! and i'm so sad that i probably won't be seeing you tomorrow evening... i'd been looking forward to it. :( kisses! (and lysol) ;)
from madelin :
(this might be a double post) You shouldn't take Advil with a fever - you need to take plain bayer aspirin. And either sit in a cool bath or wipe yourself down with a cold cloth - especially at your pressure points.
from gembrat :
We got our kids the PS2 as a surpise X-mas present. The karoake game is great fun!
from awittykitty :
your present opening dog story reminded me of my childhood dog. Once we wrapped up some chewy toys for her in some really cute wrapping paper. And when we came into the living room later she had totally shredded the package and was happily munching on the chewies AND the gift wrap paper. lol.
from spaltor :
you're gonna kick ass, my love! *muah*
from lilclownie :
I wish you well with your 'morrow. :)
from cheflouise :
I remember when Jen at school started talking about pork roll and everyone thought she was insane. Then I tried it and I thought it was good, but I haven't had it since. You can get it in some places in NY, but you really have to look. Every time I ask someone from NJ if they know it they're like "duh" and anyone else is like "huh?" Duh and huh. Haha.
from lilclownie :
yay for you, and I'm keeping doigts crossed and hoping...
from anglewings :
You will make it. Just remember we all care about you!Latezzz <3
from ladust115 :
Add weights to your regimen and you will burn more calories. Muscle burns calories, the more muscle mass you have, the faster you burn calories. The quad muscle (front of thigh) is the largest muscle in your body. Doing leg extensions help build up the muscle and make aerobic exercize more efficient. You are doing very well, quit kicking yourself in the head!
from gembrat :
You're a brave soul, listing food intake. And at least you are exercising - all I do is walk to work & back most days. Be positive! Maybe if you tape Randall's pic to the machine?
from wonka1106 :
good luck with the workout goal! You can do it! Oh and sarge.
from ariawoman :
Hehehe. I'm not getting rid of the jeans, just the clothes on the couch. The jeans I'll wear someday! (At least I hope to! hehe) Thanks for visiting!
from awittykitty :
If I lived closer I'd come over and take some of those jeans off your hands. I just lost 40 pounds and all my clothes are too big. p.s. Aren't cats delightful??
from mingo578 :
phil elliott from pella, iowa. i love it! that's really hysterical. leave me an email if 1ish-2ish isn't good for you on sunday...
from plaidskies :
The Messiah singalong thingie is December 16th at Lincoln Center (Avery Fischer Hall, I believe). Stacey C also wants to go and she thinks I need to sing the mezzo part instead of the alto part. We'll see. Everyone should come!
from wonka1106 :
yay for cool water and maine.
from fujikopez :
I love your layout! Kitties have a way of melting a person. -Fujiko
from wonka1106 :
You can borrow "bookends" from me this weekend if you can't find it at the library. It's another good one by Jane Green.
from madelin :
I am so excited that Jenn is reading books for pleasure! WOo hoo! Eventually I knew Paula and I would rub off on ya!!!
from wonka1106 :
oh man, i'm sorry to hear the rockin' yard sale was not so rockin' after all.
from plaidskies :
Hey, you can always come to Polly Esther's with me and Rox and Amy and Stacey C (who has more stuff for you if you want it, apparently) on Saturday night. It's gonna be FUN! And if you want to crash out at our apt, you can stay in Louise's room b/c she is gone that night and already said if we need to use her bed for say, Stacey C, that would be fine. So she would be even MORE excited when she finds out sex is in her bed! I'd go line dancing with you sometime if you wanted...I did it when I was in college and don't remember much, but I could figure it out. I like your line of thinking-BUILDING 3 BUILDING 3. And gooo cute boy! Keeping my fingers and other items crossed for you, still...
from ariawoman :
Yeah, I knew that one already, but cute boy doesn't like to be touched, remember...so he always pulls away. Jerk. He needs to stop that...
from madelin :
good review. also, just another way to flirt with a guy is when you are talking to him find ways to touch him...like touch his arm to exaggerate a point - but I've told you that already! LOL
from wonka1106 :
I knew about the bread b/c my father is a "bread man".
from madelin :
Good thing to know about bread! I'm gonna steal it and put it in my diary so that I can spread the knowledge....
from silverbiker :
oh i do hate interviews and not being accepted!!!! i've been looking for job since last year and well..it seems that my name has been OVER LOOKED TOO MANY TIMES! ahh! so i know what you are going through!! grrr!! take care now! cute layout!
from size18dream :
I was in a situation where I had guy friends that I knew my husband wasnt happy about. I would talk to them from work and not home, and I would only see them if I was "bumping in to them". I will never never be like that again. And I will NEVER keep a spouse from having an ex as a friend. I think he's a sap, and you should loose him. He's not man enough to do the right thing and this friendship will only be drama from here on in. I miss ya, sorry we don't chat anymore, I'm just not online or reading diaries as much! ::HUGS FROM NEW JERSEY::
from wonka1106 :
ooooh cute boy! have fun!
from hattaway :
Hiya! Well, from the standpoint of an old married lady... if my husband had a close relationship with a woman, it would be a problem. I read your IM conversation as though is WERE my husband writing it, and I know I'd be ticked off if he talked about me that way to ANYONE, but especially a female. Even if I deserved it. That's for a marriage counsellor. I'm not a person with low self-esteem, but I am someone who has left a previous husband (after cheating on him) with someone whom I had only the best intentions of befriending. If you share a history, it adds just another dimension to the whole thing. There's an intimacy there, even if it's just emtional, and it is not appropriate if their marriage is going to work out. Marriages don't last because people are screwed up and too lazy to work on their issues... so, if anyone's going to buck that trend, we're going to have to STOP using the excuse "yeah, well, my spouse is messed up." Too bad, ya giant baby. You married her, now be a man and do your job. Unfortunately, a lifetime commitment isn't always roses and cards with hearts on it, but there's no way to get to being white-haired and sitting on the front porch with someone with whom you have a lifetime of history without ploughing through the yucky times. If that's their goal, you really should let him be a "pussy" and go along with her wishes, even if they're irrational, and wish him well. In my opinion. ;)
from madelin :
I say you are better off without him b/c obviously if he can give you up so easily, he is not truly your friend.
from madelin :
There are a lot of problems with that marriage. Good golly. Trust issues are the BIGGEST crack in a relationship. She thinks she "won" by marrying him, I think you "won" b/c she is so jealous of something that doesn't exhist that she needs to be a bitch and force her husband to drop one of his ONLY friends. *snif snif* I smell divorce.
from wonka1106 :
I'm not good at giving advice but yeah he's a moron.
from bluewillow29 :
ugh, complicated. I think Linda's right about why she wanted you at the wedding. And now she thinks that he's trapped she can demand whatever. The girl has either poor self esteem or trust issues, either way it's causing him to put her crap on you. I can see why he would think giving in to her is the right thing to do, but it's not. If she doesn't trust him then it doesn't matter who the girl is that he's friends with, she's always going to be jealous. If he doesn't want to be divorced, he needs to stop dropping friends and get the 2 of them into counciling. No trust ='s no marriage, not one he'd want to be in anyway.
from ladust115 :
It sucks that she was all sweet and stuff so that you would come to the wedding (and buy a gift) and now that she has what she wanted, Bob has to dump you as a friend, but you are better off not having to deal with their little soap opera. Kinda makes me think that she wanted you at the wedding just to show YOU that SHE married him. She's a bitch.
from wonka1106 :
definitely go with flopsy
from rockapenguin :
They have like 20 DVD with Muppet Show episodes. Something like 4 episodes per CD. They're still coming out with them. There's a bunch on ebay. I found them a while back so I don't really remember. And I like Flopsy for the Frog's name.
from bluewillow29 :
Yes, I guess we are super-scary at this point being on the same wave-length ;-) Tell your parents they might want to check into travel insurance for their Hilton Head trip. From the way it looks now, this time next week Isabel will be hitting somewhere in that area. I'm still crossing my fingers for a north turn, but I doubt it happens. Hopefully the job thing will work out soon! ~tonya
from dani-lou :
Good luck! I hope you get the job. Hugs, Dani.
from wonka1106 :
oooh I hope you get it!
from bluewillow29 :
Here ya go: good vibes! good vibes! good vibes! :-) ~tonya
from bluewillow29 :
Are you kidding? I'd love to have some hang-time with you!! And you wear the B-mantel great too :-) ~tonya
from bluewillow29 :
I'm so sorry about the job! It sucks that it happened but at least you don't have to wait and worry anymore. I'll say a prayer that something new and better comes your way soon!
from gembrat :
Continued good wishes/prayers that your recovery is swift & well. Also, that neither you or cute boy get the axe. Happy to hear about your good seats for St. L.! You always get such beautiful shots. Finally, if that's your kitty...she's so pretty!
from wonka1106 :
First of all, Sarge. Second of all, I just read your profile and cracked up at what you wrote about madelin. "awww man, it's gonna rain on tuesday!"
from spaltor :
hey crazy! there are no grammar corrections in my notes! :-P hehe Love you, doll face! *muah*

Good luck with your surgery. Keep up posted if you can! You will be in my thoughts. Gina Marie in NJ

Hey, thanks for leaving me a note. I am dying to meet some Diarylanders in NJ. We might be the same age too since you like Cute Boy and he's 31. I live right near Somerset Medical Center...like 5 minutes away. Email me sometime, or imstant message! [email protected] Hugs, Gina Marie
