It's really pretty mild compared to other road rash incidents I've had. Hip probably is worse but y'all don't get to see me with my pants off :p

cool. I ride a Landyachtz Bamboo Pinner with Bear 180's and Otang Durian 86a wheels.
- scherbi: bottom dweller
Nice, I really like some of the landyachtz decks but can't afford them. I picked the bonnevilles because they're really big and really soft, with good rebound, the roads around my school are very bumpy!

I may have a bit of a broken heart lately, but I do know that I have some fantastic friends. No matter how low I feel, their love and support fills my heart with gratitude and appreciation. Somehow, I must have done something right to deserve these wonderful friendships. I cherish them always. <3
Late #SaturdayFF When I was about 9 a family moved in across the street from my house. They had a 5 year old daughter. Not many kids my age lived near me (only 1 friend on the street) so on a daily basis there weren't many kids to hangout with. She eventually became a friend by default since we could both just go outside to see each other.
At first she was fun. She just joined in whatever was going on. Her mom paid me to "babysit" sometimes. In nice weather my cousin and I would do homework outside and she liked to join us.
- <3Heather<3
Eventually, she turned into a real brat. Everything would be fine and from nowhere she wouldn't want to do what we were doing. She would want everything her way. Some days she loved us and some days it was like she was trying to get us angry.
- <3Heather<3
Anytime we had a disagreement she would run to mom, who would always storm outside to yell at whoever was involved. Being 12 and being yelled at by a grown woman who is clearly in the wrong kind of flips a switch mentally. She also stole from me. It was always little and inexpensive (candy, bracelets, etc.) but she violated my trust.
- <3Heather<3
A few years ago I found out she is bipolar. This helped explain a lot of what went on, but everyone seems to want me to be friends with her again and I'm not interested. Aside from chatting with her pleasantly from time to time, I will never be friends with her again.
- <3Heather<3
I feel like this was such a big part of my life. For about 7 years I had to learn to negotiate, when to let things go (probably too often, which is why I rarely stick up for myself), to hide anger, to shut up and get yelled at (by her mom), to keep an eye on my things and know the signs that she wanted something of mine, to decipher lies, and to deal with unpleasant circumstance.

Somehow I never took to Earl Grey. Darjeeling, though, is delicious.
- John (bird whisperer)
I've never tried Darjeeling. Earl Gray is a new tea for me. My favorites are cinnamon with cream, chamomile, and chai with cream. :)
- Zulema ⋅ spicy cocoa tart
Earl Gray is disgusting! It was years before I tried it, and when I did, I retroactively lost a little respect for Picard.
- Andrew C (✓)
I'm a fan of both Earl Grey and Darjeeling. I did once have an Earl Grey without bergamot, and it was... icky. Andrew, maybe that's what you had?
- RudĩϐЯaЯïan
Bergamot in tea? Hmm, maybe I need to try Earl Grey with that.
- John (bird whisperer)
Looking at the ingredients my tea has bergamot. NO WONDER IT'S YUMMY! :D
- Zulema ⋅ spicy cocoa tart
Sorry, can't drink that...smells like hair gel.
- April
I haven't tried very many teas, but Earl Gray is my favorite.
- <3Heather<3
Earl Grey without Bergamot? That's not Earl Grey. And oh yes, I love a good Darjeeling.
- scherbi: bottom dweller
Rudi, I think bergamot defines Earl Gray tea; it might well be the part of Earl Gray I dislike.
- Andrew C (✓)
Andrew, I agree, with bergamot as definite. That's why I was surprised to see Earl Grey on offer with something else in it. So sad you don't like it, it's just the most amazing delicate flavor!

A few in Firefox. Most either in my head (some unique, some patterns) or in Mac OS Keychain. I've avoided cloud password managers, but intend to check out this article: "" http://lifehacker.com/5879117...

thanks for asking this. I was thinking about it earlier today. Why do people like LastPass or 1Password? I've mostly heard people talk about KeePass.
- marthalib
I chose LastPass because at the time, there was a plugin for the Android browser Dolphin HD. I think you need to subscribe to LastPass Premium to use the plugin now.
- Rodfather
Brain, and a set of index cards with numbers written down, to be input into a generator if needed.
- Jimminy, CoG of FF
LastPass... and a lot of faith that they won't get hacked one day
- .LAG liked that
keepass/keepassx. If you store your password file in your dropbox, then your passwords are everywhere, even on your phone!
- DJF
I'm with Mo on the brain thing up until recently, with that said I've been looking into alternatives because of how easy it is to brute-force passwords these days.You can employ a password manager with a USB encryption key so that even if the password service is hacked the password to your account there won't open without the physical key. This is good if you already carry around a USB stick, but maybe in to so good if you lose it. Not sure.
- Benny Bucko <Team Melly>
Mostly my brain, but I have some passwords (without any context) written on various pieces of paper lying around my desk.
- Curdy G
I write em in my address book. It has more passwords in it than actual addresses.
- m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
yeah, my interest in a password manager is for the security features. remembering the passwords isn't my issue. I am leaning more toward LastPass right now.

OK, I've added most of these songs, but some, like Metallica, are not available. Some have selections from the artist but not the particular song. If I missed it, suggest another and I'll add it to the mixtape! http://sharemyplaylists.com/the-fri...

Vacuumed a small corner of the living room and started some laundry. I think I might hunt down some scissors and de-hair the brush on the vacuum.
- LB so u no it's real
Apparently so. I ran it across the area I had already vacuumed and pulled up more dirt! Then I vacuumed and moved a carpet runner that had somehow wandered across the room.
- LB so u no it's real
Put a clean blanket in Bubba's kennel and put other dog blankets in the washer. Need to move those to the dryer, but Tucker has decided that I need a break. He's across my lap holding me down.
- LB so u no it's real
Other blankets now in dryer. Vacuumed some more of the living room (clean a space, vacuum it, move stuff, vacuum newly visible space...). Picked up dog toys. Threw away some old mail and such. Tucker is now scratching his back on my newly vacuumed area, so it will be furry again soon.
- LB so u no it's real
Emptied two totebags and put them in the closet. Had a bit of moisture left on a Clorox wipe, so I was wiping the top of the TV with it. Mr. B asked, "What are you doing? We just dusted that the other day." Um, yeah, and it's dusty again, dear.
- LB so u no it's real
gah. my tooth is killing me. there is what i believe to be a piece of apple peel stuck, and it is apparently impervious to any floss and toothbrush. :/
Can you get a quick emergency appt with the dentist? Might be a 2 minute thing....
- Hedgehog
i am considering that, abigail. would give me an excuse to go see my current dentist/hygienist since I have to switch next year (*cries*).

"In the past few days, the price of big-name hard drives -- Seagate, Western Digital Hitachi, Samsung -- at major online retailers has shot up 40 to 90 percent or more. Whether the profiteering can be attributed to manufacturers, distributors, or retailers is unclear -- the middlemen don't post their prices -- but consumers, businesses, and IT organizations are getting gouged."

One year ago I was getting ready to head home for Thanksgiving, so ill and depressed that I was barely functional, dreading being around happy people. This year I've become mostly functional much of the time. This year I'm thankful for the family and friends who helped me get here.
I'll concur with The Beatles in the '60s. Pink Floyd in the '70s would have been pretty cool. Talking Heads in the early-'80s. Nirvana in the early-'90s. Radiohead in the early-'00s.
- Tinfoil 2.0
Blackstar or Panjabi Hit Squad. Outside of a band? I would love to be a musician for Nina Simone or Dusty Springfield.
- Anika
I was thinking more about people I would actually want to spend 3 months of my life with, AND I love the music. I picked bands that seem to genuinely love each other and have fun together and put on a great show. :)
- Que Sarah Sarah
Sarah, that's a good point. You have to live with these people for 12 straight weeks.
- Micah
Gustavo Cerati because he's been in a come for a long time. I went to one of his concerts while pregnant.

Of currently touring bands, Brave Combo http://brave.com/bo/ As far as past touring bands, The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band or The Beatles before they became a smash hit. Ooh! Or Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo!
- Spidra Webster
to drop everything and go on tour for 3 months? TBH, it would have to be a band i was a member of. otherwise, send me some comp tickets and appropriate artist credentials when you come through my town. i might come out for that.
- Joe The Sausage
CHICKENFOOT. Or Sammy Hagar and the Waboritas. Or just Sammy Hagar doing a solo tour. Not Van Hagar though - Eddie was a mess and Sammy was a bit of a slut back then.
- ☆ Mellyboo ☆
Apocalyptica, because they could teach me Finn. (And cellos are sexy.) :D
- <3Heather<3
Pure Prairie League, it's family so that would be the most likely. Who would I most want to, 30 Seconds to Mars(present). In the past, assuming I was even born, Led Zepplin.
- Jimminy, CoG of FF
That's a really tough question. Since I don't really drink, and don't do drugs, there would be a lot of bands I listen to that I would definitely not want to go on tour with. When it comes right down to it, I'd probably want to tour with Celldweller. He seems like he'd be a lot of fun to hang out with for 3 months and I love his music.
