So how has everyone been today

[JohnKleeb]

I have a reason to like my brother for once.

[Ekirh]

1. I've been quite good....

Had an excellent spaghetti dinner cooked by my Grand Mother, watching some good football today, and just enjoying my final week of winter break.

Oh, and the household Shar Pei (A.K.A The Commie Dog) has been lying on my feet ever since the Viking/Packers game started... so they've been nice and warm :)

[JohnKleeb]

2. I didn't watch any football as planned but I did have some fun

doing evil deeds with my brother and his friend :). I found out that my brother can be useful for something the other day too so I don't feel like hitting him for once.

[Ekirh]

3. You have intrigued me....

What constitues as evil deeds :)

[JohnKleeb]

6. heh

I gotta be quiet about that but it was evil.

[Ekirh]

9. Fair enough..

just allow me to say.. good luck with the evilness heh.

[JohnKleeb]

10. Yeah but it was well deserved

What kind of person bashes another kid's parents?

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

4. I've watched football and college basketball

Also read my case for tomorrow. Alas, winter break ends tonight, and my last semester of law school commences tomorrow. I'm getting my things together, which right now entails consolidating my candy bag.

[JohnKleeb]

8. good luck with law school, what kind of law are you studying

If I ever went in to law, I would want to be a labor lawyer.

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

15. Just general stuff

This semester I'm taking Copyright Law, Family Law and Bioethics and the Law, as well as an extension of my Elder Law Clinic. I'd like to work for legal services or do family or criminal law, or maybe immigration law. Thanks for asking!

[JohnKleeb]

18. sounds interesting

I got a particular interest in labor law since my grandfather worked for hte NLRB for many years.

[jellybelly]

5. I smelled my dog's farts

and I tripped and fell down in the kitchen. That's all.

[JohnKleeb]

7. tripping in the kitchen, jelly?

are we related ;), I am ultra clumsy.

[jellybelly]

11. I constantly fall down

I went shopping at a supermarket with my mom a week ago, I was carrying 5 heavy bags, and as I walked to her car I tripped and fell down...My body was sprawled out on the pavement and the groceries were rolling away. It happened in the middle of the customer parking lot. Dozens of people saw...:shrug: Oh well, so I make people laugh...:-)

[JohnKleeb]

13. I remember one time when I was a freshman

I tripped over my feet going upstairs and a guy from bio saw me, and he was like man I saw you trip, I was like yeah man I did.

[jellybelly]

23. I could fill up this forum on my 'falling down' days in

high school.
Ahh, the memories...It's even funnier when you trip people and make them fall on their butts. I'm sure you trip a lot of people:shrug: We clumsy people need to feel superior sometimes:P

[JohnKleeb]

24. hah fallin days

I also have my days when I school the teacher :).

[Cuban_Liberal]

12. So-so...

:shrug:

[JohnKleeb]

14. Thanks for having a good sense of humor

about our GD raid, :). Been a decent day for me too, I am just happy that I don't have to feel like killing my brother anymore, now hopefully he has some brains and doesn't fuck up.

[Cuban_Liberal]

25. Life Little Rule Book : Rule 112

Little brothers ALWAYS screw up...

:P

[JohnKleeb]

27. Then damnit

why couldn't I be the little brother and he be an oafish big brother because I would be smart enough to do this but then again he has the people skills. God I love extorting and blackmailing him but its all love, he gets some, I get some :).

[Cuban_Liberal]

31. Yeah.

Love my lil' bros to pieces...

:D

[JohnKleeb]

32. I got two and my youngest whos three has a hoarse voice

[msgadget]

[JohnKleeb]

19. couldn't we all?

couldn't we all :).

[terrya]

17. Sleeping mostly.

I'm turning in early tonight.

T

[JohnKleeb]

20. I havent been on since the early morning

[Deja Q]

21. Spending time gaming & doing video restoration. You know, important stuff!

:crazy:

[JohnKleeb]

22. of course, its mucho more important than studying for

[name not needed]

26. Oh crap!

I've got a history test on tuesday!

[JohnKleeb]

28. and I have a research paper due

and I may actually get high for once!

[Santa Cruz]

29. Not bad, thanks.

[SarahB]

30. Not good.

The mood around here is pretty sad (and rightly so), but I'm still sort of hanging out here to distract myself from my reality which is this:

I just found out I got a better job than the one I just started, but the second one doesn't give me enough hours (although more than the first). Therefore, I need to stay per diem at the first job to fill in the gaps, but they won't like it to say the least.

I had a bout of bronchitis two weeks ago that got a little better (and already went through a course of anti-biotics), but I've still been coughing. Today, I felt so run down and my coughing got worse, so I asked my soon-to-be-ex to listen to my lungs (he's a respiratory therapist). He said my right lobe is compromised and I should go in for a chest ex-ray tomorrow because I probably have a walking viral pneumonia now. (Didn't help that my work had me parking almost 3 blocks away while I was orientating.) I can't go to work and I need to rest because I'm supposed to start orientation for my new job next week (not to mention I have a physical for it Wednesday- I HAVE to be better). I still have additional training for job #1 that I hoped to stay per diem at, but now I'm going to miss it and probably have to quit at this point and pray I will be able to pick up more hours at job #2.

Let's see. I also have to endure this continual emotional manipulation from my ex of which I can't even begin to go into, but he loves to mess with my head in assorted ways and he's rather proud of it unfortunately. Plus, in the next month, we're filing for divorce and taking care of settling matters on our joint property (which at least gives me some money if I'll need it). Lots going on and lots of stress. Almost too much for one person to handle. The nest few weeks really feels like the darkness before the dawn- like some kind of damned test I have to endure.

Anyway, I try not be a whiny person, but the truth of the matter is I could be if I wanted to. :(

Ok, end of my stupid whinefest. *cough* :cry:

[JohnKleeb]

33. Its ok, its been sad here

[mdmc]

34. Goin good Kleeb

gettin on, findin my way in a post 11-02 world.

[JohnKleeb]

35. 11/02 was a tough day for all of us

but the fight goes on.

[mdmc]

36. can you vote this year?

[JohnKleeb]

37. yeah I can

So lemme think about it, I may be voting for the governor of virginia in my first vote. Go Tim Kaine!

[mdmc]

38. be sure to get on your local committee

and fill them with pinko Kucinich propoganda!

[JohnKleeb]

41. hah

Ive been told to run for congress by many in my government class and I always decline.

[MuseRider]

39. Not so great today.

:hi: John! You always make me feel better. My youngest is getting ready to head back to school, my oldest is already gone. I enjoyed having them home so very much and I HATE when they leave so I am really pretty sad today. I love my boys so much.

[JohnKleeb]

40. Do I? I appreciate that

Sorry its been tough, you know Ive been much better since I left GD.

[MuseRider]

42. Yes, John, you always do.

I am surprised you did not know that but now you do. :hug:

I am glad you decided to take some time off from GD, it was pretty rough there for a while. Smart move.

[JohnKleeb]

43. I am actually nearly a permanet exile

Even have a position in the lounge reserves now as a captain, I ventured in to GD to do some posting in a Jen Aniston-Brad Pitt thread and to do a copycat thread in GD Politics.
