Or put it on when you feel in the mood for it?

***MsPINKAcres*** · 09-05-2007, 09:18 AM

Would it be rude to give it away as a "White Elephant" gift since Christmas is coming soon?

daydream · 09-05-2007, 12:39 PM

What is a "White elephant" gift? Is that regifting?

cinderellawkids · 09-05-2007, 01:13 PM

A tabletop fountain is pointless for me, as my aquariums give off the same sound of running water, and yes you get up all night to pee. But the sound is so soothing, isnt that worth it?
Would you believe I keep my work fountain turned off, its nice not to hear running water. Am I nuts?

cookconfay · 09-05-2007, 01:15 PM

I don't think you're nuts....but I sure wonder if I am don't you?

cinderellawkids · 09-05-2007, 01:27 PM

No, of course not, why would I wonder that? Did anyone figure out what elephant gifting was?

***MsPINKAcres*** · 09-05-2007, 01:31 PM

White elephant gift is a tradition around here where everyone brings a slightly used or new gift (wrapped) to a christmas party. Gifts are numbered - everyone draws a #. Person with # 1 opens a gift, person with # 2 has the option of "steal" #1's gift or opening another gift, same with person with # 3, - It is a really fun time - especially to see what gifts people like to "steal".

Cindi & Cook - I'll be crazy with ya'll - K?

What's your favorite goofy/crazy habit?

cinderellawkids · 09-05-2007, 02:57 PM

Dont my choice of pets count as crazy? or the fact that I cook eggs and whole wheat noodles for my rats and shrimp for my turtles?

cookconfay · 09-05-2007, 02:59 PM

My crazy habit appears at this particular moment to get involved with LOSERS! Have you ever done that?

indigo · 09-06-2007, 02:25 AM

Yes I find it better to stick with people more like me....I often attract hangers on though, how about you?

***MsPINKAcres*** · 09-06-2007, 07:44 AM

This time of year, in Southwest Louisiana, all I'm attracting is LOVE BUGS!! GROSS!
Do you call them Love Bugs or Telephone Bugs? (telephone bugs, because they say "Hello & Hang-up")

GreenTea · 09-06-2007, 06:32 PM

Are you talking about the ones that go splat on your fender and eat away the paint?

daydream · 09-06-2007, 07:39 PM

Am I the only one confused about what a love bug is?

GreenTea · 09-06-2007, 11:28 PM

Wait, you aren't talking about VW's, are you? (Otherwise known as pregnant roller skates)

daydream · 09-10-2007, 06:39 AM

Oh dear, we're knocked back to the lovebug discussion?

indigo · 09-10-2007, 07:00 AM

Where do we go from here?

daydream · 09-10-2007, 07:02 AM

Isn't that a song?

***cmc*** · 09-10-2007, 09:53 AM

What topic should we ask about next?

daydream · 09-10-2007, 11:28 AM

Why do people leave messages on my answering machine and keep calling back in less than 20 minutes? grrrrrrrrrr

***cmc*** · 09-10-2007, 11:34 AM

Isn't that annoying?

daydream · 09-10-2007, 11:43 AM

Don't they know I must sleep until noon??

***MsPINKAcres*** · 09-10-2007, 02:27 PM

Gees, I would just like to sleep until 7:00 - Why is it the older I get the less I can sleep? Do any of you have that problem?

cookconfay · 09-10-2007, 02:48 PM

I definitely have that problem....Do you go to bed early or late?

daydream · 09-10-2007, 04:34 PM

Why do people tell me I'm sleeping too much when i get up at noon? Isn't 3AM to noon still just 9 hours?

Especially when I worked 2nd shift and couldn't fall asleep until 3AM my mother dogged on me all the time, that I should be up by like 8AM every day. Can we say stooooopid?

daydream · 09-10-2007, 04:35 PM

Why did I just post that? lol
