Weirdness. Stranger just private messaged me on LJ, needs someone to talk to about a medical condition and people using it against her. Awkward. WTF? What's a nice way to say no without causing hurt or offence?
refer her to a legal person. For exaple my friend called me in a RIGHT pickle about discrimination. I said " You know you have my sympathy but I am so not really an expert. But I can get someone else to call you you who is. I know he would be happy to help". Then I listen to her as a friend but didn't speak my opinion :)

How about something along the lines of "I'm sorry you are feeling bad, but I don't think I'm the person you should be talking to about this. How about xyz"??

No tv or radios on, sound on computer is muted o.O Our dog isn't barking or growling though, so that's a good sign! I'm thinking maybe it was a neighbour who had their phone up REALLY loud *crosses fingers*

It's probably just somebody receiving a confirmation that the hit is to go through. ;)

Oh Cristo, you always know just the right thing to say.

OMG! that stuff REALLY SCREWS ME UP!! in other news why are you sitting alone in silence?
- The Lady Fray
The toddler was having tantrums today. The silence was BLISS.

Had horrible dreams when I did sleep. In one of them, my Dad (who died in 1993) told me he didn't love me and never had :o( I woke up drenched in sweat.
- Mellissa
oh my goodness! Its just your stress and worry over something else. He will be representing a part of your subconcious (somewhere where you don't thing you are good enough. Which I am sure you are anyway!). And choc chip pancakes is what ANY self respecting sleep doctor would prescribe! Last night I dreampt that I went to the Brittany concert with my students but we had to sit near the back. To compensate we were fed fresh cream vanilla slices!! Mental...
- The Lady Fray
Oh no. I think The Lady Fray is right, it's just your stress manifesting and not at all what your dad actually felt. *BIG HUGS* I hate dreams like that, they shake reality.

HEY! So my best friend was assulted last night and we delt with it and the gang are under arrest and all is well. BUT after I read your post I said to him - I think we now need to make it all better with pancakes. Well we did and it is! So thank you for your inspiration xxx
- The Lady Fray
Thanks everyone, you all rock xoxoxox Lady Fray, so sorry to hear about your friend. Glad the perps got arrested though! And that pancakes helped :oD I managed a couple of short naps today, and yucky dream is fading.

Lady - He also has/had a fairly significant solo career. Probably his biggest solo song is "I Can't Drive 55" but he's had a few other marginal hits on his own. I'm not a fan of Van Halen in the least, but I do kind of like Sammy's solo stuff. BTW, he's also the face behind Cabo Wabo Tequila if anyone here drinks that stuff (even when I did drink, I wouldn't go near tequila).

Kathryn, to be honest, I just adjusted some contrast and painted the background out... I mean, when you start with perfection, there isn't much I could do to improve it :)

I can't do that. Even pissed. Something happened in the 80's that I can't watch music television... I think it may have been when Adam was fired from the Ants. trauma...
- The Lady Fray
Awwwwww... :o( I'm a stuck-in-the-80's tragic.

Mine was My First Counting Book - "One little puppy, a roly poly puppy, alone as he can be. Isn't there a boy or girl who wants to play with me?" I cried when I discovered it was still being printed, and Josiah has a copy now :o)
