Do you do this sort of thing every weekend?
2. I have a 10 year old daughter.
Hope she barracks for the Pies
3. I have a tattoo of a unicorn.
Why not?
4. I've had 2 ectopic pregnancies and am now unable to have any more babies.
Ah well ... at least you've got your daughter ... She DOES barrack for the Pies, I hope
5. I was in a car accident when I was 4 that killed my little brother.
I just can't begin to imagine what that would have been like.
6. My older sister and her wife live in Germany and she is due to have a baby this week.
Did I get this right? Your older sister ... and her WIFE ? ...
... not that there's anything wrong with that
So, is this a test tube baby?
7. I'm in love with a Carlton supporter.
You really have had a tragic life, haven't you? Do you think there is any hope for this person?
Mind you ... I can relate to this to some extent. My "significant other" barracks for Port. But I must admit, that's nowhere near as bad as Carlton.
8. I've tried most drugs.
Yep. I can relate to that. Hope you've got that under control. They really don't help in the long run.
Mind you ... it's understandable ... being in love with a Carlton supporter would turn anyone to drugs.
9. It takes me months to throw away flowers I've been given after their dead.
Excuse the amateur psychology ... but I would say you have trouble letting go of things ... you're probably still grieving points 4 and/or 5
10. I sometimes wonder if I give away too much information about myself on internet Bulletin Boards.
Probably ... but so do I. I think it's a much nicer failing than those who go to the opposite extreme and create an on-line persona that is complete fantasy and bullshit. |

* Nope - First time ever!
2. I have a 10 year old daughter.

* I couldn't love a child who didn't.
3. I have a tattoo of a unicorn.
Why not?
*Exactly.
4. I've had 2 ectopic pregnancies and am now unable to have any more babies.

*Yep, for sure. I'm very lucky.
5. I was in a car accident when I was 4 that killed my little brother.
I just can't begin to imagine what that would have been like.
*Thankfully I guess I was so young I don't remember much of it. I do miss my brother though. Every day.
6. My older sister and her wife live in Germany and she is due to have a baby this week.

*Yes, a wife. They're very happy. I believe it was the turkey baster method!
7. I'm in love with a Carlton supporter.

*No. None.
Mind you ... I can relate to this to some extent. My "significant other" barracks for Port. But I must admit, that's nowhere near as bad as Carlton.
*I know. There's nothing worse.
8. I've tried most drugs.
Yep. I can relate to that. Hope you've got that under control. They really don't help in the long run.
Mind you ... it's understandable ... being in love with a Carlton supporter would turn anyone to drugs.
*Totally under control. I don't think I could afford to have it any other way! I like my money too much.
9. It takes me months to throw away flowers I've been given after their dead.
Excuse the amateur psychology ... but I would say you have trouble letting go of things ... you're probably still grieving points 4 and/or 5
*You're possibly very close to the truth there.
10. I sometimes wonder if I give away too much information about myself on internet Bulletin Boards.
Probably ... but so do I. I think it's a much nicer failing than those who go to the opposite extreme and create an on-line persona that is complete fantasy and bullshit. |
*I agree. I hate fakeness, even if it is from someone you're never going to meet.

I don't know ace, sounds like a whole lot of new age stuff... To me, it is not evident that I have some 'higher self' or a divine aspect, there's just me. _________________ "Every time we witness an injustice and do not act, we train our character to be passive in its presence." – Julian Assange |
