bluebird1956's Responses

so just got back from a blind date

Sonadora @Sonadora (356) • United States 11 May 08

Nothing too horrible, not a complete fiasco. He just about talked me to death, though. We met at a casual restaurant so I felt good in nice jeans and a cute top. Well he was wearing dress slack and a jacket and tie. Guess I was a...

bluebird1956 First, before I go any farther, people nowadays are confusing casual attire with what used to be considered factory or farmwork attire. A casual restaurant for a man should be pants, sports jacket and tie; for a woman, dress slacks and top, skirt and top or a...

bluebird1956 Stacy, I would think that your ex being late to drop off your kids probably has something to do with his wife. In other words, perhaps she was having constant labour pains or something of the sort. Meanwhile, since it is now 2:45 a.m. here and you have not...

It was one of those days... Ever have them?

arkaf61 @arkaf61 (10881) • Canada 30 Apr 07

I should have known from the beginning. I should have stayed in bed, but given the way the day turned out, I would probably try to turn and would fall of the bed LOL It didn't start well. Hubby goes to sleep way earlier than me...

RenaeT @RenaeT (681) • United States 1 Apr 07

bluebird1956 Oh, I should also mention, if your friend cannot see the head of the tick, then your friend should take her dog to the vet and not even try to remove it herself because there is too much chance of leaving the tick's head in the dog's body. She needs to ask the...
