I quit!

SomeCowgirl @SomeCowgirl (32191) • United States 3 Jun 12

I've had enough, broken promises, shifty hours sometimes, and just too much stress. I hate it so much! I'm just going to give a two weeks notice and be done with it! I'll regret doing that next week and wish I still had the...

TheIrishClog Sorry to hear that things are not working out for you with your job at the minute. In your situation I would be looking for something else before I chuck it in as I would not like to be left jobless and penniless! Sometimes that's not an option though and...

I don't sleep well

winterose @winterose (39887) • Canada 3 Jun 12

I haven't had a good night's sleep in 15 years. I keep tosses and turning all night long. I also wake up with aches and pains every morning of my life. How about you do you have trouble sleep or can you sleep like a log.

winterose @winterose (39887) • Canada 3 Jun 12

TheIrishClog I don't think that there's any one simple answer to that. For me, I am usually sexually attracted to someone that I end up then falling for at a later stage. I've also been in relationships with guys that I've fallen for who weren't good looking at the very...

TheIrishClog Well said innocents_lost. It's true, most people do little to no research on pets that they decide to take on. It's awful. We take in quite a few surrendered animals here at our home. We have always tried to keep what we can, but now what we have is...

Butler to Pope Arrested

bostonphil @bostonphil (4459) • United States 27 May 12

This is somewhat of a really shocking story. The butler to The Pope has been arrested for leaking sensitive documents regarding The Pope and The Vatican to the press. This butler has been by the Pope's side for many years. It...

TheIrishClog I don't know the full story or even what it was that was leaked, but what I believe is that there should be no sensitive information about the church as an organisation. It ought to be completely transparent. Perhaps I'm wrong, but that is my opinion on such...

Have you had this feeling like, if you could only turn back time, you're going to delete this person in your past so that today or in the future, that person won't ruin your life? Sometimes I do think of it, but I'm reminding...

TheIrishClog I, like you, have always been one to try to see the best in everyone, but there is a line and these days it's become a much clearer line for me. I've become a lot more cynical and can usually see through someone quite quickly after they've been given the...

Baking Soda & Teeth

Yheart @Yheart (496) • Indonesia 19 May 12

I remember when I was a kid, few tooth paste contain baking soda to whiten teeth, and in some articles stated that brushing teeth with baking soda could give you white teeth. I wonder if that's true now. What do you know about...

3 responses

TheIrishClog It's definitely true, it does help to whiten teeth, but it's not something that should be done too often. The abrasive properties of the baking soda are what whitens your teeth, but it is also these same abrasive properties that can do damage to and wear away...
