Match-making services

geogirl85 @geogirl85 (116) • United States 6 Feb 10

Cats and potato chips

geogirl85 @geogirl85 (116) • United States 22 Jan 10

So, I found a cat about two weeks ago, three years old, and absolutely the softest cat I've ever had. Over the past two weeks we've been getting to know each other, and one really weird thing that I've found is that she doesn't...

Nikon CoolPix P90

geogirl85 @geogirl85 (116) • United States 4 Jun 09

I am looking to get a new digital camera, and so far the Nikon looks pretty good. If you have one, or know someone who does, how is it? It sounds like it comes with a rechargable li-ion battery, and I like the fact that it has a...

Which would you rather have: more money or more free time?

geogirl85 @geogirl85 (116) • United States 30 Mar 09

Try not to think about how having more money would allow you to work less, just if you had to pick between the two, which would be more important to you and why.

geogirl85 @geogirl85 (116) • United States 29 Mar 09

I have this friend, who is very outgoing, and gets along with most people. When it comes to her own family, on the other hand, she always seems to have issues. She has two brother who are married, and she absolutely hates her...
