No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Oh, vw, I am so sorry.

I've never been on steroids so I don't know but how hard is it to deny the cravings, vw?

Not vw, but it was really hard for me. It wasn't a craving so much as a NEED to eat. I seriously wanted to eat my own arm off, and I was only on them for 10 days. I can't imagine what you're going through vw.

It was bad enough for me that when I got a root canal and the doc wanted to give me steriods to help heal, I refused them. He insisted and actually gave me the pills, but I threw them away. It did me no harm not to take them in that instance; it just made my healing time longer.

I'm getting the pig!

I was just curious. I think I'd be in serious danger if I ever had to go on steroids. Like Nora, I sometimes feel like I have a second full time job just talking myself out of eating candy or bad for me crap. More often than not I end up talking myself into it, though. "I'm stuffed up. I should have a cookie" or "Today was absolute hell so I deserve cake" or even "I just tripped over my own feet. I need peanut m&ms."

I go to Supercuts or Fantastic Sams quite a bit and I usually end up over-tipping, so I'm not real helpful with the advice on that one.

You can call me Shakey. Hopefully, the ground is done shifting.

I do this with shopping. Bad day=need a new purse. I'm trying to stop that.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

$5 sounds okay, Andi. Your salon is in your town, right? I always tip my hairstylist 20%, but my stylist in MN was a friend and I just got used to that.

I'm actually halfway impatient to feel my first quake in SF.

Heh. My doc was all "feel free to grab a Motrin from the nurse on the way out."

I usually end up over-tipping, so I'm not real helpful with the advice on that one.

I pretty much tip everybody I should tip 20%. The math is easier for me and I don't have to keep seperate accepted tip percentages in my head! I'm very lazy.
