Random Thoughts/Express Yourself
 
This is an idea I had for a thread, but I don't know how well it will work out. Basically, it's a thread to just express your thoughts at any given time. For instance, you could use it to vent, say something you're thinking about but don't feel comfortable saying out loud to anyone else, a song that's running through your head, etc. It can be as meaningless or as important as you want it to be. You don't have to be shy about how you express it either. Just go straight from your mind to writing it down. Anything goes. Even if it's embarrassing, it's great therapy and you're among friends. You can tease in here, but you can't judge. Make sense? Ok, my first thought I've had all day is:

I wish I could sleep. This is killing me.

Really great idea for a thread! :nod:

Right now I'm thinking that I wish I had a driver's license. It's something that needs to get done, especially since lately I've been thinking about how great it would be to go see someone I love who's in another state now. But, I failed the test four times. Something went horribly awry each time. I really screwed up on the first try in high school, and then when I practiced more and tried it again a few months later, the woman who gave me the test yelled at me the whole time. It was really horrifying! :shocked: So, I was kind of set to fail the next two times because I was just so afraid. It makes me so nervous to have someone watching me do all of that, and I'm just waiting for someone to chew me out like that woman did. Some are awfully nit-picky, too, which just makes me more nervous. The last time, the only thing I did wrong was "turn too quickly," according to the woman who rode with me. :shrug: I hate that damn test. :distress:

I hate the test but I love to vent. But y'all already know that I like to hear myself talk...er, watch myself type? :shrug: :o

awww..Hillary - just relax, there really is nothing to driving :xoxo: Good luck and I hope you get to see the person you love soon :nod:

Speaking of love...I am happy being single, at least I am when I think about all of the people I've met/dated since moving to Rochester.

Seriously.

I'm starting to think there is just something genetically wrong with the men of Rochester. And then I met one woman, but she has SO many problems and issues - figures - I cannot date someone as high drama and with as much baggage as this woman has :distress:

So I guess I would rather NOT be single - but I refuse to be with someone I can't stand just to not be single, ya know?

I keep thinking of this one woman, Carolyn was her name, we were great great friends and I liked her as more than a friend, the feeling wasn't mutual, although she was gay - anyway - very very bad things ended happening in that friendship and I've not dated a woman since (this was oh 5 years ago or so). So part of me is REALLY scared to venture to that side again...

Anyway - I could go on forever with this...see what you started LaGringa?? :laugh:

Great idea for a thread though :thumbsup:

Yeah--stay away from the crazy women with the unmanageable baggage! :laugh: I understand your hesitance. But at the same time I know that you're young, beautiful, and an all-around great person so I know you'll find a great guy or girl. :nod:

Miss Vicky 06-29-2005 07:32 PM

Right now I'm thinking of how annoyed I am at people who don't check their phone messages and/or email. I've been trying to get a hold of two of my friends (for diff. reasons) and have been having no luck. Grrr. I check my emails every day (sometimes multiple times a day) and if a friend of mine leaves a message, I ALWAYS CALL BACK! :mad:

aww thanks :xoxo:

I just recently had a dream about Carolyn which is why she's in my mind..I just can't get rid of her ghost I guess. I don't even know where she is at this point :shrug:

And yeah - I know to totally stay away from the crazy girls - problem is finding a girl who isn't psycho crazy ya know? but whatever - I really am just totally content right now with my dog and I'm moving into a new apartment in a couple of weeks! I've got a great job - life is good right now and I couldn't ask for more :D

ontheEdgeof17 06-29-2005 07:38 PM

I really love my new job. Even though I've been working 40+ hours/week, I enjoy it so much. Being a Nurse was the right career move. :nod:


I'm happy being single too. But then again I'm not. Last week, my EX came over to see my apartment. He lives with his BF....Well, we ended up making out and stuff. I love him still....miss him still....want him still....I dunno what to do about it. BLAH! :rolleyes:

LikeAWillow 06-29-2005 07:50 PM

Right now I'm a little lonely because I'm at my Dad's house for the next week, and not only is it away from my friends, but he's home basically a grand total of an hour a day. So for the last couple of days, it's just been me stuck alone in the house :shrug: Then we have my ex-boyfriend who wants to get back together with me, I'm relatively sure I'm over him, but I don't know if I want to give up any possibilities :shrug:

Hillary...
 
I don't drive either and am scared of it really. I will be 30 next year and have never had a license. :rolleyes: I have driven illegally and almost had a very bad accident in my cousin's car. :shocked: I think that incident scared me quite a bit.

I thought about you when I was typing the post. You may be one of the few who understands how I feel about it. I know that one of these days we'll both get past it, though. :nod:

That's great. :nod: I still have no idea what I want to do, unfortunately. :(

You are not alone!!!!! I'm twenty-four. My THIRD learner's permit just expired. I think I used it maybe a handful of times. I'm so terrified of driving. Everytime I get behind the wheel, my blood pressure shoots up and my palms get sweaty and cramp up from gripping the wheel too hard.

If I recall correctly, Dissention and Amber don't drive either.

GypsySorcerer 06-29-2005 08:09 PM

It's strange; I never had to take a driver's test. If we got an "A" in driver's ed and our teacher passed us on our practice driving test, we just walked into the bureau and got our license. :thumbsup:

I wish I wanted to do something other than sleep... :laugh:
I usually express most random thoughts anyway. Right now I'm thinking I better start packing and cleaning up my house more, as someone will be here tomorrow to take me away. Then I'm thinking that's really boring, so of course I don't want to do it. Then I'm thinking - millions of people do boring things that make their life run better every day, why is it so hard for me??? That's about it. Oh, I'm also listening to Self Control by Laura Brannigan, and thinking I really like that song. Mainly I'm just sorry you can't sleep. :o

But the difference is, Amber LOVES to drive, but doesn't have a car. LOVES IT!!!FAST!!! And dissention has a cute car, but just doesn't like to drive. :rolleyes: :D
