Well no I wasn't too depressed about the money part. I was depressed because that place is 90 miles between work and home.
I think the attorney will charge 850 for 2 tickets. I rather avoid it and go with public prosecutors who have authority to reduce my points.

I have to take a day off for that court appearance.

Also, I wasn't on 96 - the cop is exagerrating. He marked 'pace' rather than 'speed instrument' on the ticket. So he has no proof.

The whole incident has a meaning. The first two lanes were blocked. And I passed them all at 65 nearly for 3 minutes on the rightmost. in between a guy came from the left lane and was ahead of me. That is proof enough that the rest of the drivers were driving so lousy. Later he went back
to the left lane. I too slowly came after him. And then he slowed down, i came in front of him and next thing i remember is seeing the siren. I don't recall what speed i was at.

Isn't it a fact every one drives at +7 above posted speed. Some cops don't mind.

Theres nothing wrong in speeding if not caught i think. As long as u don't endanger other cars ofcourse.

I bought a new cookbook the other day, Jamie's Italy. I bought it for all the beautiful pictures of Italy inside it because it gives me a chance to reminisce from my trip there in May. It's such a lovely, authentic, down to earth anthology of recipes and stories of local people. For example, there's a group picture of the mamas posing with their wooden rolling pins used for making pasta, and another group picture developed in black and white of at least 50 grape pickers posing after eating a hearty lunch.

it seems that just today i discovered others may be offended or put off by my sense of respect towards peoples posts, including subjects of all sorts at public forum areas.

my personal judgement dictates that i should take care with my own posts at a site such as Linda Land where many people of varying ages, ethenticities and religious backrounds are welcome.

in a quick moment of misunderstanding others judgement of me i chose to take the low road and humiliate someone with a cartoon charactor baring its behind.
for this i am truely ashamed...

i can only hope that this will not bring further retaliation. i really do look forward to getting to know everyone here. i'm certain i have things to share an offer that are not so startling as my PG humor or my moment of shameful action.

Linda Goodman was a Aries, she would have laughed about this entire thing i'm sure.
is it possible those i've wronged are Aries as well? will they take this as lightly as an Aries would. i can only pray.

------------------
yes, im new -please be kind.

I don't understand why you and I guessing that he had an Aquarius Moon is construed as "dissing" ???? What's wrong with Aquarian Moons?? Last I heard, that was not an insult worthy of "mooning".....

Never mind, hon The people who count LOVE Aquarian Moons -- I enjoy ALL the cerebral Airy Mooners

PS. I have a friend who is a Leo Sun with a Cancerian moon.
When he is b!tchy he says he is a Lion with crabs!
Maybe it is worse to be a Virgo the Virgin with crabs?

Fayte- I think this may have been his way of trying to be funny, because you said one thing and then changed to another. From what I see I don't believe he meant it for you to take it personally..........and I can totally see where you are coming from. I would simply chalk this up to a misunderstanding and nothing more.

Road trip to Sedona with a friend a couple weeks ago. Went to see Medium Lisa Williams seminar. Not looking at all for a reading, not looking to connect with anyone, just simply enjoy watching the healing that takes place for many.

My older brother who passed 29 years ago came through-UNBELIEVABLE- total validation, no doubt in my mind. Afterwards my friend and I go shopping and I buy a ceremonial "drum" in which I plan to have some of his artwork painted on.

Two days after I return home and get a random phone call from a friend I hadn't talked to in a few months, she informs me that her son is taking "drum" lessons from ***** ****** here in our town. This person just so happens to be one of my brother (who passed) close friends and has a memory like you wouldn't believe, OMG the stories!!!! He wasn't aware of his passing, he remembers the last time he saw my bro - his band was opening for Earth Wind and Fire, in a neighboring town, and my bro came to see him....this was a couple years after they graduated from High School.....He knows more about my brother that anyone I know. Lisa Williams told me he is around me, no one can tell me that my brother didn't have his fingers in reconnecting with this guy. My brother had a daughter born 2 months after his death-what a gift.

('a bit of a raw-deal to get crabs while still a virgin... a bit like the Virgin Mary but with less cause to celebrate.)

Yes, I suppose I have started ranting. and on that note... I've decided that life is shorter than I thought it was and due to that, I am to spend more time on living than speculating about it.

Oh, sod it. Okay, I'll come out and just say it... absence makes the heart go fonder, and I think two hearts, including mine, have just become fonder.

Alright... I didn't say much, but I think you get the idea. And that's all I am saying right now.

I had an excellent Friday at work. For once, it was mellow and calm. We celebrated two birthdays, complete with a frosty pink cake. For once, I only had one client drop in vs. six. I actually had time to processes my cases.

I'm still overjoyed about the concert, I went to last weekend. The tickets were pricey, but it was worth every cent. I have loved this band since my High School days. I felt so alive, and free..and just happy to be. Awesome.

Finally, I'm looking forward to weekend football. My college team of Notre Dame is not doing good, but my Dallas Cowboys are rocking things up

peace

I'm single again. I'm always single. And though I don't mind it, I do get jealous of the women that have someone to lean on sometimes.

My son needs help. I don't know if he's just hyper as hell or needs special attention. I don't want to have him classified as 'blah blah blah' at school no matter what.

I wish I had taken care of all this right after high school, instead of waiting 10 years.

I'm depressed. I am working out and not losing a pound. This time last year I was a size 8, now I'm a 12. I wish I had the energy to put into being skinny.

I'm happy overall. Got alot to be thankful for. But I am stressed and wish I had someone to talk to sometimes.

My mother and I have never seen eye to eye, she is a Scorpio and has always worried about what other people think of her, and her reputation, and she is quite materialistic.

I don't understand my mother being so nurturing and compassionate towards my younger two sisters and brother...and not me. She's always told me that when I was a toddler I never 'wanted' to hug her and I was never affectionate. That I was difficult and anti-social in pre-school years.

Was it my duty as a toddler to earn love? My brother was born shortly after me and I felt I never had the time I needed to bond with my parents, not solely because of my brother but because they chose to give that love and reassurance to him instead and bond with him, because he was 'affectionate', maybe he was preferred over me...

I find it so frustrating at the age of 25 that my mother still thinks the reason for my past depression/ suicide attempt/ relationship problems is because there's something wrong with my head and anti-depressants will fix all this!

Since the age of 13 I have carried the burden of their dsyfunctional family..while I firmly believe this I'm not blaming the entire problem on my family, but surely out of 20 or so psychiatrists/counsellors I saw individually, one of them would have worked out that my depression and misbehaving at school was not simply 'attention-seeking behaviour' (which is not a bad thing, we all need attention)but more 'if you don't recognise how great I am, how about recognising how bad I can be!' behaviour.

The emotional abandonment I endured as a toddler was not the only contributing factor to my rocky teenage years (which are over now, thank god). I think my parents were harsh in disciplining me, whereas my brother got off easily because I was the 'bully' or simply because 'hes the only boy'. As for my sisters, I doubt discipline was even a word for them.

My two sisters and brother were taken under my mother's wing even more after my suicide attempt which left me injured (my own fault of course) which made me feel more rejected, more alone, unloved, unwanted.

We all deserve our parents love.

I still feel this jealousy about my siblings, that they have not only acquired my parents love, praise and acceptance but my siblings, along with my mother, actually have no respect for me, even though I am the eldest.

It kills me that I am told I am delusional, bitter, blaming and that I should stop living in the past, and that I'm crazy and I should be more normal and just get over it.

My Dad and I also had a tumultuous relationship and now we are so going so great. I love my Dad and I know that he has done his best. As a parent myself now I know it's not easy to be a parent. But I think my Mum needs to admit to her faults, she's a very closed unemotional person.

I can't explain much about our relationship these days, I know she would rather hear anyone else on the phone but me, and she is so rejecting of any reaching out that I try to do.

I have a feeling she's jealous that I don't follow the crowd whereas she was raised very strictly and did everything she was told. I doubt she believes she's done a thing wrong in her life.

She still tells me what to do as though she has some power over me. She loves control. She is the control freak of our family. When I was growing up my Dad and I were like the black sheep and Mum was like the Queen, with my siblings as her admirers. It's still like that. Mum runs the show.

I hate her, because she is so closeminded and doesn't listen to me. She hangs up on me constantly which is her way of power tripping and refusing to go any further... you just can't compromise with her.

If she has a problem with me she will discuss it with her group of friends or relatives on the phone or with my dad. She can't talk to ME. In arguments with her I lose my cool and I go completely off and she will say 'you're out of control' 'settle down' and 'have you taken your medication today?'.

Have resisted the urge to swear at her several times as that is not respectful.. but one of these days...UGH!

Thanks for listening.

I also wanted to say hello to Aphrodite.

What's going on in my world today.

Hmmmm... took vacation days today and tomorrow.

I'm spending it helping my mom out.

I've discovered a new favorite snack food.. Chex tropical mix. mmmmmmm....

There is a new manager at my weekend job... he and I are like oil and water... I think he has entirely way more unconstructive ego than should be humanly allowed.

I did tell him where to go Saturday night.. May not have a weekend job this weekend. Ahhh... those jobs are a dime a dozen... bring it on little man.

Edit: I also had 2 cups of coffee and 3 glazed donuts for breakfast. Wow......
