darshae Yes, I've been getting lots of them. "postcards" from friends, family, coworkers, neighbors. They're all scams...DON'T clink the link. I've forwarded them to the different card sites so they can figure out whose sending them.

What can you say about your father?

Paulyn Davis @paulsy (1263) • Philippines 19 Jul 07

Today is my father's 11th death anniversary. I can still recall the moment I was beside him on his bed before he died. I wailed like I had lost the most important person in my life. My father was a great man. He was strict with...

darshae You found an awesome way to pay tribute to your dad. I'm sure he'd be proud of you. My father passed away last year. Unexpectedly and suddenly. We all miss him and the tears still come freqently. But there's smiles and laughter mixed in with the tears. My dad...

darshae It's probably his own insecurities that is making him pick you as a target. Talk it over with your boss. It could just be a rumor your coworker has started. As long as you're doing your job, it shouldn't matter if you wear a bowtie. Or, you could talk it over...

darshae Yes, I have returned excess change several times. And I've returned to the store to pay for items that I hadn't paid for. The way I see it is, I have enough things keeping me awake at night. I don't need that on my conscious too.

Whats the best drink aside from coffee that will keep you awake at night?

PinkBlush69 @PinkBlush69 (62) • Philippines 13 Jul 07

darshae I used to work 7pm to 7am, so I know what you're going through. Any kind of soda kept me awake. Probably because I rarely drink soda. Ice cold water also worked. The best thing is to get up and move at least once an hour. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Shopping to feel better... But it doesn't work!!! How much is too much?

Kristiana77 @Kristiana77 (28) • United States 21 Jul 07

darshae yes, it sounds like an addiction. more importantly, it also sounds like a sign/symptom of your depression. if you get help with your depression, you'll probably notice you don't want to shop constantly. hope this helps. i was having the same problem until i...
