Ever just want to tear your hair out, or someone else's? If you cannot restore a sense of balance, you will run away from home? Just want to say some things without the constraints of staying on topic? Well, this thread is for you! If you just need a short break to let it all hang out, be a brat, then come on, you can do it. No holding back! Go for it, you can do it.
In answer to your question, my other kitties name is Henrick. Hockey is really big here in the great white north and my home town hockey team has a pair of swedish twins named Henrick and Daniel Sedin. Not only are they great hockey players but they are super great examples of athletes giving back to the community. One of them donated a million dollars to our Children's hospital and they bought one of those suites they have at all sports stadiums and they invite underprivileged, sick kids to use them free for hockey games. Our team isn't doing great this year but Daniel and Henrick Sedin are stand up guys in every respect. So thus the reason I named my two kitties after them.
There was cocoa (hot chocolate) on sale, $1 for a package of 4-6.
What with all that chocolate, oldies music really loud, hubs and I danced today.
His palms flashed sweaty....so sweet.
Luckylu, got my egg, the smaller, dark chocolate buttercream. Saved money by getting other buttercream pieces, same recipe. My egg has a yellow flower. I won't be eating it until Easter. The candies I did eat, well, all at once......
Wanna hint?
Meanwhile, celebrating the end of my jury service week (don't have to go in at all)!!! will be searching out my chocolate easter egg @ sees today!
Ahh heck, if I have to eat catfish the rest of my life can't I at least have them on a plate
I have a See's gift card for the winner
Gershun will maybe back around 3 a.m. when Daniel prowls. What is the other cat's name? Are you sure it's not you waking up the cats nightly, Gershun?
Staying up late to make the call-in, as late as possible for jury service......
I guess I could set an alarm, eat my dark chocolate, go to sleep.
Then reset alarm to coincide with the store opening of sees candy, or forget all about jury duty. So many choices, and all of them chocolate!
Gershun, Do they have Sees in your area?
Tomorrow.............chocolate run.
This article, snatched from the internet, mentions a drug in chocolate:
Probably the most influential love compound in chocolate is PEA, phenethylamine. This chemical, which occurs in chocolate in small quantities, stimulates the nervous system and triggers the release of pleasurable opium-like compounds known as endorphins. PEA also potentiates the activity of dopamine, a neurochemical directly associated with sexual arousal and pleasure. PEA acts as a potent antidepressant in both sexes and rises during periods of romance. The giddy, restless feelings that occur when we are in love are due to a great extent to PEA, which significantly increases in the brain at that time, and when we achieve orgasm. Some scientists dismiss this notion, claiming that the PEA in chocolate is metabolized too quickly to produce a significant mood-altering effect, but others disagree. Why else would chocolate be so inextricably intertwined with love and romance? While there are a great many agents in nature which boost libido and enhance sexual function, chocolate alone actually promotes the brain chemistry of being in love.
Me want chocolate.........almost tempted to put my jacket on and run out for chocolate. Or maybe go next door and ask if I can borrow a cup of chocolate.
Chocolate, chocolate, lets see how many times I can use chocolate in a sentence.
I woke up craving chocolate as I went to the bathroom, the word chocolate kept running through my mind, chocolate, chocolate, chocolate, then I perused the cupboard, no chocolate, "NO CHOCOLATE !!!!!!, I cried to myself, "no chocolate, my kitties read my lips, no chocolate they exclaimed"
Have I lost my mind, you might ask. Long time ago I would answer. :)
Good time to quit smoking, save more than $240/yr. per carton.
My home is non-smoking. Please don't shoot the messenger.
NFD means no further details.
Then, several posters arriving new to the forum this week may be fake or trolls. Because right away, they will become offended and aggressive at caregiver members who have answered but the OP didn't like their answer.
Those are trolls, and the dismissive phrase they use to put you off sounds so familiar.
He really is MY monkey.
He is having a difficult time,
But he's still mine.
That means instead of following rules to the letter, I fell asleep without calling in for jury duty. Awoke in time to make the call and do not have to go in today! Phew! What a relief, another day. Hubs could not get his schedule correct yesterday, then his boss was so confused he had him clock out an hour too soon, clock back in, Lol.
Thanks to someone on this forum, after the third call from hubs, I just said:
"Not my circus, not my monkeys!"
