what happens when you stay in typing mode

Posted By: pdqtrans on 2007-02-14
In Reply to:

Had to share.  Friend of mine has two sisters 1 with a 2y/o and a 5 mon. old and the other with a 1 y/o.  First one thought she was pregnant again.  Second is just a snooty lil'heifer.  Anyway she was IMing me about an hour ago.  We were talking about her new job and right out of the blue said..."brb phone".  Then came back with "my flu infested sister calling to see what I got for VD".


I had a fit and said. "Serious VD?  OMG your mom will die.  Why drive 80 miles for some medicine, why not go to the doctor...I cannot believe she of all peope has revealed that information."


She cracked up and came back with


"No stupid...Valentines Day!"


Priceless...  I would have never gotten Valentines Day from VD...Maybe VD on Valentines Day!   Sometimes you've just got to give it a rest!  Must get more sleep!

I love "ignore mode" too! :D sm
Will have to rememeber that phrase, though I don't know whether it's slang or vernacular. Either way, good on you! :D

BTW, I used to find most British dictators harder to understand than ESLs, so that's how much I know about the Queen's English. :D I do understand and speak some"Tex-Mex", however, though as far as I know I'm not Hispanic. :)
Be careful of the cycle. He is in the gift mode.
I think if you go on the net to Harbor House Orange County, Florida you will see the cycle. Please go there and read up. But do erase the history and cookies that go there. So he does not find out. I believe the cycle of abuse chart is there as well. Be careful...
re: lunch while typing
Just FYI....NEVER try to eat ramen noodles while you are typing!!! Not a pretty site...LOLOLOL...just a thought to lighten the load!!! hehehehe
typing stand
Does anyone have any idea where you can find a typing stand like the ones we used for typing class?  I'd like one with a ruler or something attached to keep my place on the document.  I'm having a really hard time locating this item.  Any clues?  Thanks!
as i am typing, i bet it is getting deleted
I cant believe it has been on here this long!  I am quite sure that it is going to go fast. By the way, look up the EU, European Union.  Go to Google and Images and check out the building.  In front of it is a statue of a woman riding a beast.  Also, their seats for the congress/senate or whatever they are called are numbered, going up to 800 or something.  all filled up with the persons name, except number 666 is empty. 
I have had a drink while typing but ....sm
usually just one and I don't get drunk.
typing speed
Go to Google and type in typing speed. There are a bunch of things under google. You can take typing tests to see  how many words per minute you are typing.

Please excuse the typing errors...
All I have heard today is "The patient had a giberishgiberish condition that includded gibberish, cough, hack, sneeze gibberish." You get the point.
I also watch while typing or at least try to eat lunch then
I read that the audience will slowly find out who all is in the accident. Like yesterday just about Nick, Sharon, and Jack. I know Cane, Katherine, Lauren, Paul, and the lady cop (can't remember her name). also Victoria (we already know this), JT, and I suppose Adrain. What about Amber? Not sure about her. I think I saw her with blood on her in a preview.
Need a little YouTube break from typing? - sm

Then take a mini-tour of San Francisco, the way we skaters like to enjoy it!

I have bifocals for reading & typing, and although - sm
I'm perfectly fine driving without glasses, I have some driving glasses, which just makes it a little easier to read street signs from distance. It's to correct astigmatism. I could also have gotten trifocals, but someone I knew with them said he had them and never could get used to them. I also chose the bifocals with the line, rather than the lineless ones. There was supposedly a good reason, although I don't remember why!
Happy Birthday...keep on typing
I'm 72 and still typing..:-)
No kidding. I'm not typing my fingers
to the bone for a week or two straight just to buy a freakin' purse! Maybe if I was a CEO or something, but not on my MT pay. Or maybe if I was an MTSO, LOL...
Can't afford to be hooked to anything, except typing right now!!!

Studies show typing doesn't cause it, but
the mouse isn't great for us. But you can protect your median nerve by using typing gloves like SoftFlex, which have little pads that protect the nerve when you rest the heel of your hands.
I'm concerned that you were typing & weren't watching your 6 yr old.

I got to get back to typing her but need special prayers
my DIL and grandson are in flight from Hawaii to LAX to be with her mother, his grandmother in the last few days of her life. Her name is Pat. She lives in Placentia. She is in the hospital right now but wants to come home when they get here.  My son also in HI, scheduled to leave within 10-12 days to Iraq but he is having some medical issues. Please pray they will not be of a serious nature. Please pray, he is thinking his men will think he is faking this.  It is just all the stress he is under....Thank you in advance
Hopefully you use an expander, and aren't typing it all from scratch? NM

grammar mistake above, typing while angry again!
Gotta learn to count to 10.
sorry, meant "PugmoM" - too early to be typing!

Help! Was typing along and hit something to make paragraph symbols appear all over document. nm

Yes!! I get extremely bored and have trouble staying focused on typing. sm
Some days I am so bored I dont know how I am going to get through the day!!
One time I was typing on a calm Sunday evening and my son came into the room...

said, "I told you we should buy me a new bike," and I looked up at him and his arm was all bloody and his left flank and hip were all bloody and grungy,  I shot off an e-mail to whoever was there on Sunday night and took him to the ER with a broken arm.  Bike was also unrepairable.  By the way, I offered to buy him a new bike not too many days prior to this incident and he said he didn't need one.

Any office supply place, like Office Depot or Staples. Try copyholder instead of typing stand.

Need advice on a good, adjustable chair for typing. Any advice? nm

Normally, this would be something I would try to stay out of, but (sm)
I would think if you called CPS and explained things just the way you did here, they might be able to do something to keep the aunt away, and parenting classes for the parents wouldn't hurt either.  I agree with the other poster who said if parents (or you) act first, anything the aunt did at a later time would be considered retaliation.  Handicapped parents many times can be the best parents, but it sounds like they do need some help with setting boundaries.
I think I would stay put if I were you. He knows where the
door is and can use it if he chooses.  Your first concern has to be your children and you should not have to find a place to live if he is the one who has the problem with you.  If there is no adultery involved here, don't rush into divorce.  Divorce is painful and can get nasty.  Sometimes just being away from each other can "calm the waters" and allow you to make a more objective decision. I speak from experience.  My husband and I divorced very hastily when we were very young after less than 2 years of marriage and then remarried, had 2 children, divorced very hastily again and then remarried again.  Had I just been a little less in a hurry I could have saved myself a hiney-load of money and a lot of heartache by just being away for a while and then making an objective decision.  Instead, I rushed into divorce and paid dearly. 
Stay away from CC....
If you have been having problems meeting the minimum payment on any CC, by all means don't go opening another credit card. Your credit report will be an absolute mess. I know it's 0% interest for one year, but read the fine print - there is usually a fee of some type, plus, can you pay it off in one year before the interest starts up? You never know what will happen in life and you may not be able to make the payments, the rate goes up, and you are in deep doo-doo.

Sallie Mae is high interest, your 401K is better. With 401K you are paying yourself back with interest. It's a no-brainer. No one gets your money but you. Is it possible to borrow again from a 401K if you already have a loan out? Having the money deducted automatically from your paycheck and put back into your 401K is the safest and smartest bet...as long as you have a job.

If you ABSOLUTELY have to have this other loan for $7,000 then the 401K should be your only choice. Can you do without the $7,000 and get back on track before getting deeper into debt - or at least until you pay off the existing credit card?

Why would you want to stay...
with someone who is, as you say, mean? If you are not happy, LEAVE! When you stay you are condoning his behavior. Some women want to be martyrs, others want to live a great life. There are great men out there; wallowing in self-pity does not get you one though.
Well, obviously we don't want to stay
somewhere where there's still a lot of damage. That's why I'm asking for personal experiences, and hopefully recently. We don't want to book a beach house and when we get there find out it's in the middle of a big mess.
stay vs go
First, I am so sorry for your situation...that being said, the kids will definitely pick up on the negative vibes between you and your husband. As far as your question goes, I think only you and your husband can know the answer to that one. Just be very aware of your kids and behavior changes, emotional lability, etc. Trust me when I say, they are not dumb...they will pick up on what's going on, no matter how hard you try to hide it (yes, I'm speaking from experience...). Good luck!
You definitely need to stay on top of this...
The kids who you think are least likely to commit suicide are the ones that actually do...that is not meant to scare you by any means...most kids find it easier to write down their feelings than actually expressing them face to face so the fact that he wrote this means something is bothering him...I think you should both talk to your pastor..good luck...(((HUGS)))...
I think you should just stay out of it.
It is just humiliating for kids when their parents act up or cause a scene.

The name of the game is fun. Your going into the game wanting your son's team to beat the other team because of YOUR issues with another parent is very immature and selfish.

Trust me, we've watched parents like you've described yourself (and others, in fairness) acting out and it is so unsportsman-like and completely immature.

Embarrassing for everyone.
To Done: STAY !
No husband is perfect, we are all human. Your husband has a lot of good qualities. Think of your children! I think you are spoiled and unthankful. Maybe he is right and is better than you. He loves you, why don't you; I think you are just bored.

If I don't have anywhere to go, I stay

in my jammies.  I usually get up and take the kids to school in jeans and my jammy shirt.  Then come home and put the jammy pants back on.  If I don't have anywhere to go, I don't get dressed until mid afternoon when I break for lunch.  I usually put something in the oven and hop in the shower.  Sometimes I just put clean jammies on, sometimes I get fully dressed.  Either way, my contacts go in and my hair gets done.  My husband likes me either way, as long as I'm clean.  I find I wear my jammies more in the winter and am more likely to get dressed in the summer, probably because kids are always coming and going in the summer.


At any rate, I tend to be more productive when I'm dressed, so I should probably try to do that every morning, but I'm just not a morning person.  Every year for Christmas, my mom gets me "work clothes" (jammies)!!!


Where we stay in NYC.
We stay at the Embassy Suites on North End Avenue right in the financial district.  It is walking distance to to the Village, China Town, Mulberry Street, etc.  It overlooks the Harbor and you can see the all the helicopters coming in and out.  My husband always goes to Battery Park to watch the helicopters.  It is not too inexpensive, but you do get free breakfast and there is a happy hour at 5:00 p.m. if you like to have a few drinks, which will really cost you in the city.  There is also a fantastic deli 1 block away that we always hit for a late night snack.  We go at least once per year, sometimes twice or 3 times.  We love it.
You really have to stay on top of the cards
I do a lot of card flipping with balance transfers but also calling and trying to negotiate new deals. I just switched one with a balance transfer at 3.9 for the life of balance and then talked them down to a purchase rate of 8.9 (it had been up in the high teens). I also talked a card I've had a while into a 2.9 for the life of a balance transfer instead of the 12 month offer they were having because there was a delay in the electronic transfer to the other company causing me a bit of inconvenience. That transfer was actually for a loan I had at a pretty high interest rate, so some loans can be put on cards too which I never knew. I find websites that list ALL the latest offers for all or most card companies and I'm always checking. Sometimes I call my cards and tell them I am thinking about switching unless they can give me a similar/better rate or deal. Often they will so as not to lose the business. I have saved a ton of money doing this - it is sort of like consolidating on your own. I can post the site if anyone is interested, don't have it handy right now. Oh..I also have automatic electronic payment setup to pay a certain amount each month from my checking so the payment is NEVER late. You are so right about that, that's where they get you! I just thought maybe some of this info may help someone, I hope so. My credit is very good now but had been a mess in the past.
Remind me to stay
away from that doctor!!!
Did he marry her so he could stay in the U.S.? nm
.
I go there frequently and would not stay in
the Flamingo. It is right downtown but a very old place, the smoke when you go into the casino is terrible, not as classy as I like. It might be cheap but then you get what you pay for. I love the Mirage, stayed at Treasure Island, very nice also, favorite though is the Bellagio, more expensive than most on the strip. Love the buffet at the Luxor. MGM might be alright and at the end of most of the strip but I would think ok as far as a place to stay.
To make it stay that way
If you want everything on your computer bigger: right mouse click on your desktop background. A little box should pop up. Click on 'properties'. Then click on the settings tab. There should be a little sliding scale with the screen resolution. Move it to less resolution (left). Then click 'apply'. Your screen may black out for a second, but when it comes back, everything should be bigger. Certainly saved my eyeballs!!
Also if you stay away you are letting him win(sm)
As that seems to be his goal -I would not let him keep me from seeing the rest of my family. However, I also would not want my children exposed to his mouth, so if you cannot stay in a hotel,I would go and visit without your children, which I do sometimes as well. I see my family about twice a year, usually once by myself and once with the kids, at which time we stay in a hotel.
Its wise to stay away
I had a C-section and had planned to stay at my mom's for a week or so to recuperate.  As soon as I got there, I put the baby in the cradle in the living room and started to put some things away in the bedroom.  I could hear my step-dad saying "get 'im, get 'im" to his dog....I went out there and he was actually encouraging his schnauzer to mess with the baby!  I came real close to braining him with a can of tomatoes over it.  I left and refused to bring the baby to their house as long as he was in it.  My mom, too, chose the step-dad over her kids.  Now he's dead and her relationship with her kids is rocky, and she regrets it.
Need help with a dog that will NOT stay off furniture (sm)
We have a black lab in the house - had him since he was a puppy.  He was/is not allowed to be on the couch and other furniture but....he considers it a challenge.  If I am in my office, he will get on the couch and jumps down as soon as he hears me walking into the family room.  I don't know how to make him stay off.  He is a very smart dog and we challenge him in other ways with training.  One of my kids will be home for the holidays and has allergies.  The dog hair on everything is getting to me real quick!  He is 2 years old now.  Forget the dog bed - he looks at it and laughs!!   
Can help you on this, we stay at the Bellagio
and hear that is higher up on the scale of rates.
Do NOT stay just because of the age of your kids.
Being unhappy does affect your kids, whether you are abused or not.
3 yrs and 3 months. Stay over every other
xx
I'd try to stay calm, but (sm)
One thing I told my now-husband years ago was that I had to have honesty enough to know if he needed something from me that I was not giving, that he was not to go looking elsewhere for something without asking for it at home.

In this day and age, with STDs being they are, there is no excuse for adultery. It's not just thoughtless and hurtful, it's irresponsible with someone's life.

As far as being calm, I'm just not sure temper or tears works in a situation like that. I think many men "turn you off" when you get in that situation and nothing gets heard or accomplished, and something needs to get resolved with you guys PDQ.
Stay together for the children - yes or no? (sm)
Husband and I have been on the verge of divorce for years, trying to stay for kids.  But now we can't seem to stop arguing for more than a week at a time.  He is including me in none of the decision making and acts as though we are already divorced. I am worried about the effects divorce would have on my children, emotionally, financially.  But part of me is ready to just plunge into the unknown. I almost feel like I don't have a choice.  Would appreciate opinions and viewpoints either way.
