The only urges I constantly struggle with are the urge to eat chocolate and the urge to be on JU any free moment I have I no longer try to resist either of those urges! Too much effort.

Yesterday, during the height of my "annoyed phase" I had the urge to scream, incredibly loudly, at the top of my lungs--for a really long time. I was fairly certain that my colleagues would frown upon this behavior, so I summoned up all of my will power and resisted the urge. But it got me thinking about other urges that I have successful resisted. Take t

Right now, I would LOVE a nice cold beer. I would also like to serve some other blogger's a huge helping of humble pie--but that's another whole story. But back to the beer--order one for me!

ok--but here's the deal--if we don't say it, who will? Yes, my blood is boiling and I'm feeling a little whacked...but, does sitting back and watching the innane chatter continue help at all? dharma--I agreed with what you said, and I'm glad you said it.

Not really sure this is a forum bug question--it's more a curiousity question. Why do my "Last 30 Days" Point only change once every couple of weeks. It's been stuck on the same number for at least 2 weeks--even though the total points change--it could be coincidental. anyway, insight would be most appreciated.

The thing is, as an American, I have every right to hold my government to a high human right's standard. The failure of others to uphold the protocols of the Geneva convention is not an excuse for relaxing our standards or not calling our government to task when we see violations. We, as Americans, put ourselves on a moral pedestal--I have every right to express o

It's not just that I can't control myself from commenting but also that I leave with a negative feeling. I just did it again. I said I was walking away, I walked away, and then I took a quick peak--and my blood literally started boiling, I typed my response and hit send--all without really thinking.

unfortunately these actions took place long after Bush said the war was over. Maybe you mean an illegal occupation makes people do bad things. Then again Mr.San, perhaps you think it's ok under certa

Did all you Aussies know that maccas in the US has brekkie burittos and 170 different types of REAL chicken breast burgers !!! Ok, I'm showing my ignorance here, but is maccas, McDonald's? If so, to the best of my knowledge we don't have 170 different types of chicken breast burger--I am pretty sure t

Luckily today I'm feel much more relaxed--nothing's going to bother me today--at least that's what I'm telling myself!

I do the same thing, though I'm not always good at sticking to it! I kind of wish there was a "self-blacklisting" feature so that when my willpower wears down and I really feel the need to throw my 2 cents in I won't be able to!

At what point do you decide to take your life in your own hands? In what circumstances do you make the decision where death is a highly probable outcome? Thomas Hamill's story amazes me. When Hamill was taken by his Iraqi captors, his calmness was striking. When he identified himself on a video that his kidnappers beamed around the globe, he

Thanks for the comments greywar--though I think Muggaz is good at digging is own grave--uh, I mean defending his own points!

Today I've been easily annoyed. I don't know why, and for the most part, I can tell it is a wholly irrational response--but I'm usually in the middle of my tirade before I recognize this, and would look quite silly stopping in mid-sentence. I can now say that I understand the phrase "under my skin," because right now, the stupidest things are making me feel like so

Karma: Where can I get some of those? Sign me up! Muggaz: I'm not denying I'm weird--I'm pretty sure all the situations I describe above plant me firmly in the realm of weird. However, there a acceptable and unacceptable ways of telling a girl you think she's attractive. "Nice rack" falls firmly in the unacceptable category as far as I'm concerned!

Why can't you girls just take these for the compliments that certainly are? because there's way more to me than my physical appearance--in fact, I would say the best parts of me are not my physical appearance... I just don't enjoy

I must have missed some of your other blogs, I didn't know that you were female. Your foolish ways are pretty mild for being foolish. You are a brilliant writer. Thanks Sherye! There seems to be a lot of confusion about my gender. Dan and I have joked tha

Sometimes I think I have a propensity for doing foolish things--and other times, I simply come to the conclusion that I am a fool. Here are some of the more recent examples of my foolish ways: 1.
