This post may sound a little selfish,but I have to get it off my chest. Heres the situation...I think my husband should pay less child support to his ex. I know that sounds terrible, but I have my reasons. He makes 120,000/year...

Whether it is a world wide famous celebrity or a local one (such as a newscaster), have you ever seen such a person, in person? If if you did, did you scream in excitement, say hello to them like you would your friends or family,...

vokey9472 I met Simon at Disney World. He was really nice about me spilling a drink on him. I was talking to my friend and not watching where I was going. So I bumped into this guy and managed to spill my water all over him. I was apologizing and trying to offer him...

Here is what has happened: My husband got paid and it was direct deposited into our bank account. I knew we had one transaction that had overdrawn our account by $1.85. I was expecting one overdraft fee. We got FOUR!! Of course...

I don't want to taint anyone from giving their honest opinions here, so I am going to put out the discussion and let it go from there. I have a theory about pet owners in general and want to see if I'm right. It's something we've...

vokey9472 I understand that sometimes children can provoke an animal to nip at them, but sometimes the animal is unprovoked and still bites at a child. That is not tolerated. I watch my son with our dogs. I correct my child when he is behaving in appropriately with the...

My goodness! I have never really monitored my expenditures for daily needs like food and groceries as I only make like one major trip to the supermarket every two to three weeks to stock up. Recently, because my wife is busy...

I have tickets to the Duran Duran concert in Chicago in December and, after the release of their new album, I'm really not sure what to expect of them live. I'd love to hear their old songs, but I feel like their new album will...

vokey9472 Are you going to the Mix 102.9 Eye Candy Concert in Dallas on December 12th? I wanted tickets to that show so much. I just couldn't afford them. Lucky you. If you need someone to go with you, I totally volunteer. :)

Thanks to one of my friends on mylot for pointing this out to me! I just had to start this discussion. Now, it might be hard to execute but I think a Chocolate Beer might go over well. I remember another poster describing slipping...

vokey9472 3lilangels, you might like a Framboise-Lambic. It is a mildly sweet raspberry flavored beer. It is made in Belgium and costs approximately $10 per bottle, but you get 750ml to a bottle. You need a corkscrew to open it. I am not much of beer drinker, but I...

I am wondering if I am an alcoholic. I find myself drinking whenever I get upset these days. It calms me down and makes me feel better. I don't think that using alcohol to make myself feel better when I get upset is a good thing....

vokey9472 I think that any marriage that can be saved should be saved. My marriage does not fall into that catagory. We tried therapy. He stopped going because he felt that the therapist sided with me because the therapist was a woman. There is always an excuse with him...

vokey9472 We already tried therapy. It didn't help anyone but me. We tried medicine. He stopped taking it and says he doesn't need it. I have been trying for too many years to fix things. Today I haven't had any alcohol. I had hot chocolate instead. Oh, and...

vokey9472 I drank another bottle today. I don't really think I am an alcoholic but who knows. I think I am just trying to numb myself out enough to endure the next month and a half. There are still 6 weeks to this year and every time I think about having to spend with...

vokey9472 I appreciate your input. I realize that I have a problem. I know that "secret" drinking is bad. I stopped being secretive about it. I drink in front of my husband. He doesn't care. He just asks if he needs to go buy another bottle. Isn't that a joke? I am...

vokey9472 I think once I admit to myself and everyone else that my marriage is a farce, I will be better. I kept telling myself that things were getting better, but the truth is, I am the only person who is making any changes to our life and well...I am just sick of it....

vokey9472 I have heard of the Heifer Project. I actually heard about World Visions from Oprah. I am all for helping out the world. I believe that one person CAN change the world for another person.
