The Return of the Pink Ranter

1. He will shift again, building stuff is always fun.

2. I think Mini-B is going through a phase too.

3. How is that mouth piece working for you? My husband has sleep apnea

4. those dang tablets are big distractions they are like a double edge sword sometimes.

1. Si, man.

2. Si, man (sigh, man).

3. I noticed, especially early after I got it, that I was probably (finally) sleeping through the night. It was quite a different feeling. Mrs. T-B. noted the same, multiple times. She said that a couple of times, I was so quiet that she had to hit me to see if I was dead. In recent weeks, I haven't been sleeping well at all, but I attribute that to other physical and environmental goings-on.

4. I trust "she who is the most multiple-mommy in this thread" in this matter, gracias man.

My mother and father hated each other after their divorce. Then they went off dying less than a month apart. So many people assume when they hear that, that my father was so in love he couldn't live without her. Actually I think he hated her so much, he'd be damned if he'd die before her and give her a chance to dance to his grave.

Papa & Mama T-B. had a marriage made in heaven for 53 years. She barely left his side during the several months of his last hospitalization. When he died, I've never seen anyone cry so long or so deeply or so forlornly. Afterwards, her only goal was to die, too, so she could be with him. It was only the advent of this Mrs. T-B., and most certainly of Mini-B., that kept her wanting to live. She's 100% crazy about her Grand-B., wee man.

I keep reminding myself that if I make a marriage that's even 1% of what Papa & Mama T-B. had, I'll be blessed. Eyes getting a little wet just thinking about it all, see man...

He's sleeping as I type this, while we should be done our cardio by now.

If he's healthy enough to exercise, he's healthy enough NOT to, see man.

Make a Hand Puppet out of a thickish sock, and have the hand puppet read along.

A fine idea in theory, but Mini-B. has always said "Off! Off!" when we've done things like that.

It's ok you need to get it out, or you will go more nuts then you already are

Is Ontarklar a great headshrinkette, or what, huh man?

This kid was born to a small apt in manhattan shared by tiff, her sis, Gump, and their aunt, uncle, 2 cousins, and temporarily- my in laws. A year later, tiff moved in with me. So for a year, tiff had a hand in raising (or creating a monster) this child. It took her a while to realize that this is not her son. I have pics of that apt.....I'll dig it up and show you guys.

My kid marrying that kid would be incest. In some cultures, that's fine to keep the money in the family. But not in any of my cultures.

A song was writ about the above: "I'm My Own Grandpa."

ps: dog uses me as her couch, she does that quite often.

Start readin' the 34 pages, fast man.

1. The only jewelry I have to my name is a wedding band.

2. I do have nice (non-garage sale) suits.....well, I need it for work.....

1. If a man wears more than one watch and one ring, he looks like a lounge-singer named Vic.

2. Who would buy a suit at a GS, fer gossakes? Resale stores are the only place for that, si man.

[TBoneTX 45,866]

where Tiff lived in Manhattan.....this is what 1500 gets you, if you're lucky.

Fiddeen hunnerd could rent you an extremely nice whole house in Texas, yee-haaaaaa man. This is why I have no respect for Ciudad de Nueva York, no man.

[TBoneTX 45,866]

Next....I come from a frugal background. I live a modest life. And for the most part, Tiff does too. I don't know if it's because she knows that's what I expect of her or she's accustomed to it from being a Pygmy lol.......

LPoP/unread, but wives either adapt to Cheap Gringo Husbands or not, si or no man.

[TBoneTX 45,866]

In my experience I have seen dead people.....

Collect social security

Collect food stamps

Use credit cards

Work

Collect a pension for years after death

Write letters of recommendation

Renew their drivers license

Rent apartments

Open bank accounts

10/Many. Vote for JFK for president.

1. how much we should be helping his family. I say not at all, aside from the occasional gift when we go to visit

2. how much energy he's going to have after working all day

1. Had Mrs. T-B. tried what seems to be pervasive in some Asian cultures, her shapely hindquarters would've been back in Ecu soonest.

2. He has learned, at a young age, that naps are wasted on babies when we need them, see man.

You're too young to have to go twice at night. Have you had that looked at by a doctor?

Dr. Urethra Franklin?

Like Tarklar complaining that there are too many ties for 25 cents

They're rarely that cheap, no man.

1. Speaking of Tarklar, that T-bag should be showin up any minute to talk to himself....

2. So, I will now speak Texan..... I'm a gonna retar to bed....as soon as I git tha backer outta my mouth.....

1. Got it, first try, si man.

2. English-only outside the regional forums.

[TBoneTX 45,866]

Intense workday, no nap, more tomorrow, sigh man. Shall off-log for the night and almost certainly not log on during daylight hours, si and no man.

Well dear, I has nervous bladder one and two I tend to forget that I should not drink a bottle of water right before sleeping. I tested my nervous bladder theory and if I go sleep in guest room (I did that when I was sick as a dog) ....I don't wake up at all. It was nice.

Also, good morning thread !

oooh got some people from MIT and Virginia Tech confirmed as references yay ! Sadly my ex bosses did not respond to me. sigh.

We keep it at 72, the summer I can get away with 76-77 I freeze all summer and winter I'd be happy with 78 all year

Dang 64 my asthma acts up when I sleep if the temps get lower then 70. But I'm truly allergic to the cold, i break out in hives until I'm warmed back up. I'm told that it drops my blood pressure very low and I need to be careful.

there is a reason why I really want to have an apartment and occasionally wish i was not even here at all especially after the talk me and my hubby had.

May be you didn't wake up because you were sick. Not because you slept alone. How long has this been going on? If its a recent change, you should go see a doc.

OK...we're listening....what talk did you and your hubby have?

if you get a job in NYC, go visit Mt Sinai's Center for Sleep medicine

G_Dabney has the best comment there, IMO

I don't see a comment from G_Dabney there. Wonder if it got moderated out before I could see it?

I dont take medicines and what not. I think most things can be handled with life style changes etc. this is most likely anxiety stuff that will pass, it does not happen all the time anyways. My bladder is fine !!

Well, we had a talk that we always had - going over issues where I talk, he listens and instead of actually speaking to me about things - he decides to twist the truth to defend himself (which he doesn't have to do). Bottom line - he confessed that he is only supportive of me looking for jobs out of state ( as well as in state) because he is banking on me getting a job here but if I do get one out of state it will be an issue he will not be happy about and will give me trouble over it.

We again got to the children talk - he mentions it not directly on and off - hinting that he does not agree with us not having kids. Now, we went from me talking about it for a year and he saying he agrees with us not having kids (since he is in no position to have them and I have health issues) - to " I had no idea you did not want kids"...so I actually told him about all the emails I sent and the chats we had about it and he changed his story to "well, I thought you were joking (???)". So then I showed him email about how I said...."please know that I am not joking and it worries me (besides other things I said explaining my reasoning)" So then he said "well, since you moved here I will sacrifice myself with the kids thing"......It makes my head hurt. I don't need to have someone telling they are graciously sacrificing themselves for me because I moved here. I moved here because I believe we were in the same page and that when he said he was fine with moving out of state or not having kids he meant it......how can we even handle this.

Now we also got to the family talk where he decided not to support me when I messaged his brother about pawning his kid onto his mother and have him live here with us. The kid crying next door because he feels abandoned by his parents. He said he would support me and that I was right and now he says "well, I would have never said anything and why does it matter what they think of you - they did not kick you out clearly, the child is gone so it is non - issue - they talk to me, and they don't hate you and whatever they told you who cares".....i am sorry but they said i was an outsider, i did not belong here and i should move out if i minded the situation and that it was not my place to voice my opinion on anything pertaining to this family and how dare I. I am sorry but it made me feel like a complete nobody and I had nobody to say otherwise.

I honestly meant no harm and said so...his mother seemed to be very very stressed out and came to me to say "i cannot take it anymore, i am going crazy taking care of this child" that is the only reason I said anything (I was not offensive to them either, I simply asked them how they plan to handle the situation since this is not a long term solution unless they intend to get rid of their child permanently). Point being....he decided, while I was right to say something, I was also supposed to keep my mouth shut as he does and not expect him to stand behind me and he wont if anything like that happens again.

and if i hear one more time just how he cannot wait till i got a job and have money and can buy him things and how everything I owned before we got married is his - I will scream.

Ok half rant over I am done. UGH.
