Subject: Someday my prints will come!

Hi, Michele!

How do you like that subject line? I’m still waiting on your pics! Maybe I’ll get them later today; I’m sending this message about 8:30 and our mail usually arrives about 11:00.

I did get the message yesterday - I was busy and didn’t get a chance to finish my response letter! (Next time, I’ll send a quick Angel-gram so that you know I’m working on it.) I think I noticed why last Friday’s email didn’t arrive here. Did you put your email address in the TO section? I’ve done that before: sent stuff to myself when I meant to send it to someone else.

I did see Danielle’s signing in my guestbook; and I was wondering about the flip hair inside joke.

That was mighty nice of you to ask why I’m single when I’m so wonderful - I’m paraphrasing there :)   - If I may say so, the same can be said about you! And it does beg the question: "Why are we still single?" We have so much to offer!

There’s an article in the new Cosmo that has advice on what we were talking about: dating guys just for the sake of dating. Of course, their stance on the issue is that "you shouldn’t feel guilty about seeing someone that you think you have no future with." This advice is in an article on how to make yourself more attractive to guys; this was under the section that you should casually date someone to make yourself more attractive to other guys. That is a step beyond dating someone for a free lunch! (According to Cosmo, guys will rate an average-looking woman as being more attractive if she is talking to another man.) I don’t think that using some poor dork as bait is the way to meet Mr. Right!

A few years ago, a Christian friend suggested that I get involved with the Baptist Campus Ministry. They told me that would be a good place to meet a guy. I still haven’t joined the BCM yet, but I bet it would be as good a place as any to meet a potential husband. I was thinking about that the other day, and I realized that most of the places I go have a less-than-quality sort of dating material. It’s like, "I wouldn’t go to McDonald’s and look for Eggplant Parmigiana." All of the guys I’ve previously dated were people I worked with at restaurants or wherever. There’s nothing wrong with them, of course, but they’re just not the one for me. I’ve often thought about visiting a larger church, or at least becoming a part of their singles program, to try to be around the kind of Christian man that I’m looking for.

Having said that, I think about sex too! (So much for a smooth segue.) There is one cool episode of My So-Called Life where Angela (the teen-aged main character) keeps thinking about sex. She looks at adults and says in the voice-over, "Mr. Smith *has* sex. Ms. Jones *has* sex. They could be having sex together right now!" She shakes her head and thinks, "I am the sickest person."

I can fully relate to your dilemma. I don’t know if I am qualified to give advice about that since I’m in the same boat. I do find that some days/weeks are better than others. Some days it seems like I find myself thinking "thoughts" about every semi-attractive guy I meet. Other days, I’m more calm. It’s funny you should mention being tempted by Arnold Vosloo, because I’ve also wondered what would happen if someone that *^%& fine asked me out. Like you, I honestly don’t know what I’d do! I guess it’s true what they say about God not letting us be tempted above what we are able. (Maybe this is why I only date scumbuckets - believe me, they are easy to resist!)

**recommendations**
movie - Oscar
cd - Wheels are turnin’/REO Speedwagon
TV show - Caroline in the City

funny moment: from the Mama’s Family episode where Naomi had the dinner party that was spoiled by Mama lying on the floor in the living room due to her back having gone out. After the party was over, Naomi was  being very calm; she appeared to be tidying up the living room. Mama is still lying on the floor. Naomi starts to set the TV tray tables over Mama one at a time, all the while she’s talking about how Mama couldn’t help that her back went out. "It struck you without warning," she says at one point. After she’s set all of the tray tables over Mama, she puts a tablecloth on them and turns out the light. Of course, Mama’s saying, "What the …?" Naomi has the last word as she’s leaving the room, "I’m sure you’re every bit as comfortable as you made my guests tonight."

new questions!

when you go to the movies, who do you usually go with?- me, myself and I.

do you know how to sew or knit or crochet?- I can sew a little - like reattaching buttons that have come off or mending a small tear.

do you believe in ufo’s/extraterrestrials?- no

How would you feel if you found out one of the men you had a crush on had died?-  I would feel awful!

when you have a "to do" list, do you usually do what you want to do first, or do what you least want to do first so you can get it out of the way?- I try to get what I least want to do as soon as possible so it won’t be hanging over my head.

has your name ever been mentioned on the radio?- Yes! When I became a finalist in the Top Ten Reasons I Need a Shopping Spree, they read my name and my top ten list on the air. I was so thrilled!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
NEW QUESTIONS
Have you ever ridden in a limosine? No. I’m sick about that too - for that Top Ten Radio contest I won, they left a message on the office voicemail on a Friday saying that they were taking all of the winners to the shopping spree in a limo the next day. I didn’t get that message until the following Tuesday. (Thanks a lot boss!)

How many bottles of nail polish do you have? I have about six bottles of nail polish that aren’t ruined.

What color are your nails painted? Do you match your finger and toe nail polish? My toenails are white (because that’s the newest polish that I have). When I do paint my fingernails, I usually don’t match them to my toes. Although I haven’t done it in a while, I like a modified French manicure on my fingernails: I paint the tips white and then paint over the whole nail with a clear polish.

What beauty regimens would you let your husband see you do? Just the basics: putting on makeup, fixing my hair, brushing my teeth. I wouldn’t want him to see anything that I wouldn’t want to see him do.

Would you wear makeup around your husband most of the time? I wouldn’t all the time, but I’d definitely try to look my best. I’ve read in magazines that one of guys’ pet peeves is a woman who thinks she doesn’t have to fix herself up because she has a man.

That’s about it for now. Talk to you soon! God bless!

Subject: I’m cheating on Arnold!

Hi Anne!

To answer your first question in the "new questions" section, yes, I did see Jurassic Park tonight with Danielle.  It wasn’t as good as the first one, but I liked it.  I probably liked it as much as the second one.  I was on the edge of my seat a few times, grabbing Danielle’s hand and saying "Holy sh*&" as quietly as I possibly could. Sam Neil is to die for!  Oh, that New Zealand accent!  Yummy!  Alas, I was cheating on Arnold big time tonight!

I’m glad you like your haircut.  It is so cute!  Since I know what you look like now (well, I have known) I think: ‘ Anne’s a pretty, sweet girl!  And she’s still single?  What the heck is wrong with these guys today?’  This thought has crossed my mind about myself oh, about a dozen times a day!  Not that I’m stuck up or anything, but I hope you understand what I’m trying to say!

Oh, yeah, The Mummy Returns is going to be out the day after your birthday!  Maybe you should start hinting to your mom and Sara now about it. emoticon  Every year around my birthday and Christmas, I’ll write a "wish list" for Danielle of things I’d like to have.  Every year, somewhere on the list I’ll write so-and-so naked, and tied to my bed.  This year its Arnold Vosloo (lol).

Congrats on your Angel site being voted #1!  I know you just took over it, but I’m sure you feel really proud about it, and you deserve to be!  I’m glad you deleted the "this site sucks" comment from the guest book.  Why do people have to be so darn nasty?  Hey, did you see that Danielle signed the guest book to Chez Anne?  Ok, let me explain the tee-hee flip hair thing.  A few years ago Danielle had a crush on this guy, Rick.  Anyway, this other girl, Lisa had her eyes on him too and she ran after him.  Danielle is like me and believes that the man should do the pursuing, YADDA, YADDA, YADDA.  Well, to make a long story short, Rick and Lisa went out and fooled around and Danielle said it didn’t bother her, but I can tell that it did.  Lisa would have this annoying habit of "flipping" her hair whenever she laughed.  So when Danielle would imitate Lisa (in private) she would say "tee-hee flip hair."  Yeah, I know, pretty stupid, but Danielle was being in a silly mood that day!

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who stayed at a job because I was afraid to move on!  Right now I’m at ***** because I truly think that’s where God wants me to be for the moment, and there is nothing new on the horizon, but I like your "go for it" attitude.  I can’t see it now, but maybe a golden opportunity will come up for me sometime in the near (or maybe far) future.  When it does, I’m not going to let it slip away!

I believe too that when I meet my soul mate I wont feel awkward.  I think I was just having an "off" day on Sunday.  My mom and I had a huge fight before I left for work and I had that on my mind. 

Yet once again, we are on the same wave-length because I too, want to meet such an extraordinary man in such an ordinary way (like waiting in line at the grocery store).  I always have it in my mind that I’m going to meet him, walking down the street.  We accidentally bump into each other and while we apologize profusely, our eyes will lock and in that instant we will somehow just know.   Some days when I get really lonely and scared that I’ll be alone for the rest of my life, I’ll ask God not only to give me strength, but to also give my future husband strength as well and I can actually feel my future husband praying for me.  So I have to wonder, "why on earth should I even worry about this?" 

Ok, I need your advice about something.  I figured I can trust you enough now that I can say pretty much anything to you.  It’s about (GULP!) sex.  Ok, here goes:  I’m a virgin, I really want to remain a virgin until I’m married, I pray every day for God to give me the strength to remain a virgin until I marry.  Nothing new, right?  It probably also won’t surprise you when I say that I think about sex constantly.  I think about it constantly, and yet I’m scared to death of it.  The total act of it (from start to finish, the moans, the groans, the bedsprings squeaking, and everything else) freaks me out and yet I’m fascinated by it and wildly curious about it.  I’m hoping that my fear is God’s way of protecting me because He knows how (ahem!) horny I get and He doesn’t want me to do something I’ll regret later.  Also,  say I’m somewhere and Arnold Vosloo is there too.  He isn’t an actor or anything, just a regular joe.  He walks over to me and stares into my eyes with those piercing eyes and he holds out his hand to me.  I know that once I take his hand, my virginity will be gone forever.  Anne, I honestly can say I wouldn’t know what to do!  I’m ashamed to say, that I’d probably end up taking his hand, and I know that is so wrong!  I mean, sure a one night stand would feel good at the moment, but what about after?  Of course the guy is going to dump me the next morning.  I guess my mind is in fantasy.  in my fantasy, the man would meet me, make love to me right away and want to spend the rest of his life with me.  This is why I have to stay close to God and not rely so much on my fantasies!  I’d appreciate any advice you can give on this! 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
questions answered!

already answered the Jurassic Park 3 question!

about how much time do I spend a week on the internet?- about 20 hours

Do I consider myself a romantic person?- In some aspects.  I’m a huge sucker for "fantasy" and medieval romance.  Also I love stories about elderly couples who have been married 40, 50, 60 years and whose love stood the test of time.  I can’t help but be cynical when I see young couples get married now.  I think ‘what’s the chances of them still being together 50 years from now?’

If I saw an old crush with his wife, would I want them to stop and speak to me?- NO

Have I ever been to a class reunion?- no, but my tenth will be coming up next year.  I’m not sure if I’ll be going or not.

has your name ever been mentioned on the radio?- Yes!  Back in 1995 Danielle wrote to the dj of my favorite morning radio show and asked if he could wish me a happy birthday and play "Nights In White Satin" (one of my all time favorite classic rock songs).  He did!  I even have it on tape!  Oh!  I just remembered about you winning that radio contest, so I guess your name was said over the radio!

Subject: Lovin’ it!

Hello, Michele!

Hopefully after today we’ll be back N Sync :) with our emails!

Are you having a nice time off? I know what you mean about having so many plans for your off day and then you wind up sitting around. I get mad at myself for that too sometimes. Other times I try to think, "Hey, I’m always going somewhere; I deserve some time off!" That’s like some days, I feel so physically tired that I just can’t motivate myself to exercise. I would feel really guilty about that, and I’d think, "What if I never feel like exercising again?" (Hypochondriac much?) Lately, I think, "My body must be telling me it needs a break." So I take it easy and don’t feel (too) guilty about it.

Anyhoo, I am SO loving this haircut! I think I look better with longer hair, but after that perm in Feb 2000, my hair was really damaged and generally of a poor quality.

So, TMR will be released on Oct 2? That’s the day after my b-day! (A well-built guy in a loin cloth? Now THAT’S a happy birthday!) I’ll have to put that on my list of things to treat myself to!

David’s movie, Valentine, is supposed to be released on DVD this week, but I honestly don’t recommend it. He’s only in about 20 minutes of it, the rest of the time it’s a pretty standard horror flick.

Oh, yes! I looked on the …er … my Angel site yesterday and there was some new stuff on the main page. I was more than a little surprised, since I didn’t put it there. I finally figured out what it was - it was a link to vote for the Top Ten Angel Sites. Guess which site is number one. That’s right: MINE! WOO HOO! I was so tickled by that I could hardly concentrate in class yesterday! It’s really not anything that I’ve done that makes the site #1 - it was created and maintained by someone else until a few weeks ago.

So I was feeling really good about the site: "they like me! They really like me!" Then today, I looked at the guest book and there’s a comment, "This site sucks, no offense." I took no offense as I promptly deleted that guest book entry. Oh well - like they say, "you can’t please all of the people all of the time."

Yes, I lent $700 total to an ex, but not to Ray. That is one good thing I can say about Ray: he had a sense of responsibility and he wouldn’t accept money from me, although he couldn’t manage his own funds worth a darn. This was an entirely different scumbucket named Jamie. I dated him around 1995 when I was younger and completely stupid! Now, I’m in the same mindset you are: I cannot imagine sharing my bank account (ie my money) with my husband.

Once again we are so similar! I stayed at my (waitressing) jobs for years because I was too scared/lazy/whatever to move on. I’d feel bad about complaining about that job and not looking for another, but I’d still carry on the same way. I’d rationalize that no place would be perfect. Now, I’m a big proponent of "try something new!" I’d encourage anyone to Go For It and try to get a job that might seem a little out of their reach.

You are so right: the "ugly" guys are usually so much more bold than the good-looking ones! We are in the same boat, because none of the guys I find attractive seem to like me either. (Unless of course they’re married. Then they seem to find me irresisitible!) I guess that’ll be one way we know that the guy we find is The One - he’ll be good looking AND will actually be attracted to us as well!

Similarly, I think that when we find The One, we won’t have those awkward don’t-know-what-to-say moments. I believe it’ll be great: we’ll just click. Have I ever told you the way I’d like to meet my future husband? I think it would be so nice to be standing in line at the grocery store or wherever and just strike up a conversation with the guy next to me in line and we’d just hit it off. The rest would be, as they say, history. You know how I’m always talking about God’s plan; this is another reason I don’t regret the end of any of my past so-called relationships. I think, "Oh well, that must not have been God’s plan for me." I try to apply that to crushes I have that get away too, but that’s a little more difficult.

You are not boring me! I may not have much advice to offer, but I can sure listen … well read anyway. :) I honestly believe that many people would be better off if they simply knew that someone was listening to them.

I go through periods where I really want a guy, too. Waiting really is the hardest part. Lately I really find myself in a "Praise the Lord that I’m not with Ray anymore!" place. You’d think I could put it behind me, but I get really, really happy when I think of how I’m out of that mess. Insert lame advice here: any guy is not better than no guy! That’s no help - you already knew that!

**recommendations**(again, I may have sent these before … if so … well they’re good and they’re worth repeating.)
cd - Joyride/ Roxette
movie - Fifth Element
TV show - FX: the Series

funny moment - from the Facts of Life, there was an episode where they had a Twilight Zone theme and some spooky host guy would give us the play-by-play. He had been telling us about Tootie. Then he says, "Tootie. Tootie. I like to say, ‘Tootie.’" Just the way he said that cracked me up!

questions answered

your house is on fire.  Everyone gets out safely (pets included) You can go back in and save a few items.  What would you get?- my journals, pics, clothes - anything I could!

how old were you when you got your drivers license?- 16

when was the last time you and Sara had a big fight?- I can’t recall - I guess it’s been a couple of weeks. We usually have a quick, yet big blow-up and then cool off pretty quickly.

when you read a book, do you flip to the last page and read it?- I usually don’t.

have you ever been to a costume party?- no, but they let us dress up at Cracker Barrel for Halloween.

if you have, what did you dress up as?  if you haven’t, what would you like to get dressed up as?- I was a "pirate" with black mini-skirt, black stockings, black boots, a white shirt, a red vest, a plastic sword and an eyepatch. I tried to draw fake scars on my face with an eyebrow pencil but they didn’t look very realistic. The whole evening I threatened to "run people through."

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
NEW QUESTIONS

Are you going to see Jurassic Park III? I want to - that would be awesome in the theatre!

About how much time do you spend a week surfing the Internet? If surfing includes working on my website or sending emails, I probably spend twenty hours a week. (It wouldn’t be nearly that much if I didn’t have this computer at work, or if my boss was here more.)

Do you consider yourself a romantic person? I really used to be; I’d be crying "It’s so beautiful!" when I watched Beauty and the Beast or a similar show. Lately, I’m pretty jaded. I watched an episode of BATB not too long ago and I was thinking, "eh."

If you saw an old crush one day with his wife, would you want him/them to stop and speak to you? No, I really don’t think so!

Have you been to a class reunion? Would you go? I haven’t been to one. I would have gone but they cancelled our 10-year due to lack of participation.

Subject: Oh! So that’s why I didn’t get an e-mail for Friday!

Hi Anne!

Hopefully you got the Friday e-mail that I re-sent to you.  I don’t know what the heck happened to it.  I didn’t get a "failure of delivery" notification.  I don’t know if there is a dead e-mail office.  If you didn’t get it- I might as well tell you what you should mark your calendar for: The Mummy Returns is being released on video on October 2!  (the original e-mail says October 6th but I’ve since learned they pushed the date up a bit). 

I worked all weekend.  The July ornament premiere turned out pretty well.  We made $1000 less this year than we did last year.  Mary and I were talking and we think the owners are having fianical problems.  If worse came to worse and the store did close, I guess I’ll just have to find another job.  The only thing I would miss is my co-workers.  I can’t honestly see myself staying at this job forever.  I’ve matured so much over the past several years.  I stayed at ***** for five years because I was afraid to move on, I was afraid that somewhere new would be too overwhelming for me.  I only quit because we moved and I had to find another job.  I thank God for that.  Now my attitude is that if I could of worked at ***** and at *****, I can work anywhere!

Anyway, I’m off today and tomorrow.  I’m going to relax!!  There is so much I need to do (write, clean, read this-that) and I always promise myself "as soon as I get a day off work, I’m going to do all that I need to do", but when I’m off work, all I want to do is sit in front of the tv (or the computer) and veg out!  I get so angry at myself for being so lazy sometimes.   I’m the type of person that if I’m doing nothing, I feel like a nothing.

Good luck on your final exam!  What subject is it in?  Also good luck on that class you’re going to re-take.  That reminds me of my US History class I had in tenth grade.  For the life of me, I couldn’t pass the tests, which counted a huge part of our final grade.  So, I admit that I cheated on a few of the tests, just to pass with a low C!  Gosh, I wish I could go back in time and have the brain then that I do now.  I mean, I’m not this genius but a 28 year old mind in a 15 … 16 year old mind, my grades would have been a lot higher!  It wasn’t that my grades were that bad, but I probably  didn’t live up to my potential. 

Thanks for asking me about my book.  I admit that I really haven’t been working on it.  I mean, I know a couple publishing companies I’d like to try, and I know what I have to do and everything, its just a matter of taking that first step.  Sometimes I get so scared.  Sometimes I wonder if this is what God really wants me to do.  I mean, I know as a writer, what I’ll be getting myself into and I wonder if i’m ready for it.  I don’t dare utter what I’m saying to you to my family.  They would be so disappointed in me if they knew what I was feeling.  But I want to write!  I don’t know what’s stopping me.  I suppose I’m so scared of failure as much as I’m scared of success.  Its like right now I’m standing on the diving board, and I know once I jump off of it, there is no turning back and I’m gonna get wet.  But will I sink?  Or will I swim?

I’ve just been feeling really down lately.  Lonely.  You know guy-loney.  Sometimes I wonder if its me who has the problem.  I mean, here I am 28-years-old and I really don’t even know how to talk to guys.  I get all uncomfortable around men and I can’t think of a thing to say.  And in turn I know I must be giving off bad "vibes" in the process.  Yesterday I was helping a guy with the computer (we print out invitations and announcements) and he was good looking and pretty nice and I acting like a blabbering idiot!  I couldn’t even look him in the eye!  What the hell is wrong with me?

I’m sorry for boring you with my problems.  It just feels really good to talk to someone.  Maybe I’m just having a bad day.  I’m usually pretty confidant in myself.  I try not to worry about this too much and totally trust God, but it’s difficult sometimes. I just wish I could just let go and let God take total control over my (love) life!
****************************************************************************
Questions answered

what to I do with extra money?- I usually save some and spend some. (I’m practical but I’m not boring!)

Do I think I could dress and act like someone completely opposite from myself for a few days?- I think I could but it would have to be in an unfamiliar place and unfamiliar people (i.e.- when I’m on vacation).  I think I would feel too self-conscious if I did this in familiar surroundings.

if i could live at another time in history when would it be or would I choose the present- I too am a fan of modern conviences but I would love to live a few weeks in medeival times.  Maybe i can find myself a dashing knight in shining armour who will sweep me off my feet and I can bring him back here to 2001.

Hi Anne!

Yes, I did manage to get in a few hours sleep Thursday morning.

Mark your calendar:  The Mummy Returns is going to be out on video and dvd on October 6th!  I got a catalog in the mail yesterday (Movies Unlimited:  www.moviesunlimited.com )  and guess what pic was on the front cover- why yes, TMR, and there was my man in all his bald, sexy glory.  When I saw it, I gave this orgasmic gasp and Danielle just looked at me and rolled her eyes.

Re: men who can’t seem to take no for an answer:  why is it that it seems the less attracted to a man you are, the more he will pursue you?  In most cases it seems to be.  I would get the freakiest guys hitting on me, and with the exception of Chaz and Dwight, all the men I found attractive wouldn’t hit on me at all.  Why do "ugly" men seem more bold than good looking men?  Is it because the good looking men are so in love with themselves they think, "Let the chicks come after me?"  Well, my future husband is going to be good looking (in my eyes) and he is going to be the pursuer!  Yeah, he’s going to be one special man!

Anne, you lent $700 to your ex?! (was it Ray?)  I hope he paid it back to you.  I’m just really funny with my money.  My parents have a joint checking account and a joint savings account.  I have a bit of trouble grasping the concept of "what’s yours is mine" and vice versa when I get married someday.  I think "That’s my money, and nobody else’s".  This is something I have to really work through, because I do want to have a good marriage and I do want to share everything with my husband.

Oh, I know how you feel about your boss and "he must think I’m stupid."  As I’ve said, Nora is in vacation this week and she left me and Mary in charge.  Anyway, Susan (she’s the district manager )calls the other morning and I answered the phone.  First she asked to speak to Mary.  I told her Mary wouldn’t be in until the afternoon.  Susan says, "Oh.  Then I guess I’ll just tell you."  We had got some merchandise transferred from another store and she wanted me to cross out the name on the transfer papers and replace it with the name of our store.  Simple enough, right?  She said to me twice- "You won’t forget to do this now, will you?"  I wanted to say, "I’m not retarded, you know."  And why did she want to talk to Mary?  Couldn’t she have just told me in the first place?  And she even called Mary later on to make sure that it was done.  Hello?!  I did the stupid thing as soon as I got off the phone with her!  I get so angry at myself because I get intimidated by her sometimes.  I have to remember that she isn’t any better than I am, nobody is!  As my mom so "tactfully" says, "She (or He) has to sit down to take a shit just like everyone else".

Well, how did your haircut go?  I hope you like it!  I’m sure you will- if you brought pictures into your hairstylist and everything.  Can’t wait to see a picture of you and your new do"!

funny moment- from Mama’s Family.  ITs the one where Vint and Naomi get married (probably one of my  all time favorite episodes).  If you’ve seen it, you know about the whole fiasco about Mama giving Carl’s sapphire ring to  Vint and Eunice finding out about it and how she threw a fit during her singing solo at the ceremony and everything.  Everyone stands up and starts fighting and Aunt Effie says what I think is one of the funniest lines in the history of the show: "Is this the line for the food?"

questions answered

do I go to the same hairstylist every time?- the last three times I got my hair cut it was by the same girl.  Before her I went to another stylist for a long time

do I type a letter all at one time?- usually not

worst job I can think of- I can think of a lot, but one of the worst has to be a hooker/call girl.  I mean, forget about the moral aspect of it.  Could you imagine having to sleep with a man you find totally revolting and you have to act like you’re enjoying yourself?  No, thank you!  Also, I feel sorry for the poor sap who has to clean out the poo in the animal cages at the zoo.  Gross!

am I a note taker or a just-listen type person?- a note taker

Subject: You sent a Friday email?

Ola, Michele!

No, I didn’t send you an email on Friday because I didn’t get one from you. (I checked my other email folders, to be sure I didn’t inadvertently file it in with something else.) I thought, "She must be busy today." We’ve been having trouble receiving emails from one of the companies that we do business with, but I did get the one that you replied to my "photo enclosed" message. That’s pretty strange - is there a Dead Email Office? Anyway, what was I to mark my calendar for?

How was your weekend? Here, I caught up on some chores like thoroughly cleaning and organizing my closet. I had to go count jewelry at 6:30 yesterday morning, but I only had to stay about three hours. I had plenty of time to just be. I have two part-time gigs scheduled for next Sunday, so I’d best not wait until the last minute to study for my test, which is next Monday!

I’ll be glad for the two week break between semesters. I have my final exam on August 8th, and then I’ll be free until the 22nd. This fall I’m retaking a class that I took last fall. There were 14 of us in the class and 9 of us received D’s! (Yes, it was *very* discouraging!) I was really doing well on the homework, and I thought I had a good understanding of the material, but I could not complete the man’s tests to save my life! Hopefully since I’ve had the class before I won’t have to work so hard this time; it would be great if this new professor assigns us the same homework probs as the last one! Next Spring (yes, I’m planning my schedule in advance!) I’m planning to take three courses, which means that I’ll have to cut back my hours here. I’ll probably wimp out and only take two, but they’ll probably be offered only during the day, so I’ll still need to cut back my hours here. (WOO HOO!)

How is your book going? Over the weekend I found some unopened mail from a Christian Romance book club, called Heartland (I think) and I wondered if they would know of a publisher that you could try. Let me know if you want their address, and I will bring it.

**recommendations**
cd - The Return of Bruno/Bruce Willis (I love to hear him sing; you can hear in his voice that he’s having a good time.)
movie - Dangerous Liaisons 
TV show - My So-Called Life

funny sitcom moment - from The Simpsons, I love their Halloween episodes. I especially like the one where the had a very distinguished voice reading The Raven by E.A. Poe and when the Raven would quoth "nevermore" it would be in Bart’s voice.

***NEW QUESTIONS***

When you get extra money (like a tax refund) what do you do with it? I’ll usually save most of it. Sometimes, I’ll splurge on a little something.

Do you think that you could dress and act like someone completely opposite from yourself for a few days? (I’m think of this as being an experiment that someone might try to write a paper or something.) I believe I could - it would be great to see how the other half lives! For example, I don’t usually go out to bars, but if I were trying to be different I would go (to meet more than to drink) and do my best to be outgoing. I would probably put on a blond wig also.

If you could live at another time in history, which would it be or would you choose the present? I’m sure that I’d choose the present - I’m a big fan of the modern conveniences! I would like to visit other times - if that were possible - as long as I could come back here!

I’m keeping it short today - don’t want to overload the email system. (LOL) Talk to you soon! God bless!
Anne

PS - I’m looking forward to getting the pics from you! I haven’t posted any new ones on my site yet, but I’m taking a lot of pics looking for ones that are fit for public viewing.

Hi Anne!

Did you send me an e-mail for Friday?

If you did, I didn’t get it.

I had sent you one earlier in the morning (I think the subject was "mark your calander")

I mailed a few pictures out to you on Saturday.  Hopefully you will get them by Tuesday or Wednesday.

Subject: How do I set the laser printer to "stun"?

Hi, Michele!

Well, did you get any sleep at all?

I agree 100% with your thoughts on pursuing people. I also apply that to guys who ask you out and still persist in asking after you say, "No thank you." They keep asking/whining, "Come on. Let’s go out one time." Like you said about chasing some guy, the persistent guy might get a hesitant woman to go out with him, but does he really want to be out with someone that he had to whine/guilt into going? I’ve gone out with guys under those circumstances before and with you as my witness I will not do it again! That basically goes back to what we were talking about: going out with a guy you’re not attracted to  for a free lunch.

I also agree with your NO LEND MONEY philosophy. While dating one of my exes - I lent him about $700 - not all at once of course - and then he broke up with me because he wanted to do drugs again and felt bad about doing them around me. Boy, can I pick winners or what?

I apologize, but I must gripe about my boss and more of He Must Think I’m Stupid! He handed me one of those "no postage necessary" cards to fill out for some catalog and was sure to point out, "No stamp is required on that." He’s had me looking up prices for some part that we’re trying to resell. He wanted me to check the CD catalog that we had, but I checked on the company’s catalog on the Internet. Let’s think about this: which would be more updated? The CD catalog from July 1999 or the company’s website catalog? I deduced that the website would be more current. I couldn’t find the part that I was looking for so I called the company’s rep and gave him the information - on TUESDAY - and he still hasn’t called me back. Another company - that actually seems to want our business - called yesterday just to see what we have going on, so I got the price from him and he gave us a good deal. STILL today, my boss wants me to look for that part on the old CD catalog!! WHY?? WHY can he NOT accept that the new company might give us a better deal?? He just doesn’t think for one minute that I could be right! (When I tell him I can’t find the part on the CD catalog, I’m sure he won’t believe that, or he’ll think of some new inane place for me to look for the information: "Anne, try 411 - see if they can sell us the part.")

I must have PMS because I’ve been feeling really gripey/stressed about work today and yesterday! But I feel a bit better about having got it out of my system. After I rant about it, I can then calmly smile and nod to whatever ridiculous thing he says. (Oh, yeah: he’s just trying to give me pointless busy work to keep me from going over to the couch.)

Re: Sara, I don’t believe that any guy has pursued her. She doesn’t really go anywhere that she could meet someone except to work; I think this is another reason that she gets crushes on those guys she works with.

In other news, today is the big day! Haircut day! I keep trying to visualize my hair with the new style and I just can’t picture it! I’ve had this style for so long. I keep reminding myself that it’ll get rid of the damage from the old perm, and that is very good! I was going to send you a pic of the style that I’m going to ask for, but I decided that I’ll send it with the pic I take of me so that you can see the two. I HOPE that my stylist will tell me if that’s the wrong way for me to go.

**recommendations**
TV show - Nash Bridges (liked Working)
movie - Working Girl (loved First Knight!)
cd - Wakened by the Wind/Susan Ashton (love Don Henley - haven’t heard that album)

funny scene - from Mama’s Family, Mama had one of her aunts staying with them after the aunt had a stroke. Iola, the neighbor, was trying to teach the aunt to knit and put the knitting needles in her hand. Iola turns to get something and the aunt brings the knitting needles down into Iola’s leg. After several minutes of struggling, Iola gets the needles away from the aunt. Mama comes back into the room. Iola excuses herself saying, "If you’ll excuse me, I seem to have a run in my pantyhose." As soon as she gets out the door, she lets out a scream from the pain. Inside, the unaware Mama says, "That woman places way too much value on her appearance."

new questions -answered

have you ever had a slumber party?  If so what is the most amount of people you’ve had over?- no, but a friend stayed over a time or two.

would you rather be two inches taller or twenty pounds thinner- twenty pounds thinner

do you know how to ride a bike?- yes

physical turn offs in a man- smoking, a hairy back, long fingernails, dirty fingernails, unkempt hair. Also, if he has no ambition and no goals in life, I will not look twice at him!

Ok, say someone took a video of you taking a shower or changing or something and they posted it on the internet and you found out that all the men you’ve ever had crushes on had the opportunity to see it, but declined.  Would you feel relieved or insulted?- Probably insulted! I’d like to believe that they were too virtuous to look, but I don’t think I’d buy it!

ever been "flashed" or mooned by someone?- yes! I’ll briefly tell the story: when I was 14, I’d driven up to the gas station on the corner. Some perv was sitting in a moving van next to where I parked; I think he was trying to talk to me, but I was trying to ignore him. At one point, I looked over - I think he was saying "hey" or something - and he’d unzipped his pants and was jerking around the … um.. shaft of his being. I got in my car and drove on - quickly!

ever been "goosed" by someone? - yes. 

ever cheated on a test?- Yes, unfortunately.

ever cut class?- yes.

NEW QUESTIONS!
Do you go to the same hairstylist every time? If so, are they open about what they think looks good or bad on you? I’ve been going to the same stylist for the last three visits and I plan to go back to him. This time I plan to ask his opinion, I *hope* that he will tell me tactfully and honestly when I ask! (You *know* they can tell if a different style would look better on a person!)

When you type a letter, do you type it all at one time? I usually do not. I’ll type, then wait a mo, perhaps do something else, then think of a new topic or a different way to say what I’ve already said, etc.

What is the worst job that you can think of? I knew a girl/lady who used to work at the Animal Control center - part of her job was to put animals to sleep. That is truly the worst job I can think of. I could be a coroner before I could do that!

In a class, are you a note-taker, or more of a just-listen type person? I’m a note-taker in a big way! I try to jot down just about everything!

That’s it for today. Talk to you soon! God bless!

Subject: Ch-Changes

Hi Anne!

They totally changed the hotmail format.  I have to get used to it.  I hate change!  But then again sometimes the same thing all the time gets boring.  Let me rephrase that- I really don’t hate change, but it takes me awhile to get used to it.

I  think its about 1:30 Thursday morning right now.  I fell asleep around 5 and got up around 11.  I hate it when I do that.  I have to go to work for 9:30 and now my body clock is all screwed up.  After I’m done writing this, I have to try to go back to sleep for a few hours.  If i was off work today I could probably stay up until about 4 or 5 am!  Yeah, I’m a definite night owl!

Oh, so you were laying down on the couch?  Now I understand why you were so embarrassed.  You should have just told your boss that you were practicing for your therapy session (lol).

I like the trent story about the Garfield undies.  Come to think of it, I think I have a pair of Garfield undies too.  So when I wear them, I have a pussy on my …. um, never mind!

I have another example of  the unappeal of shy guys.  Well, I have to go back about 10 or so months.  This one lady, Kim (she works at the variety store in my neighborhood) had a party last labor day and she invited me and Danielle to come along.  Anyway, she kinda wanted me to meet her next door neighbor,  Joe.  From what she told me, I liked the sound of it:  He was 38, very good looking, built nice and was pretty successful financially.  So far so good, huh?  But then came that killer sentence- he’s shy.  I thought, "Well, at least I should go and meet him".  So I went and met him.  He was very good looking but after the initial attraction it was pretty much a let down.  I left  the party thinking, "Well, nothing is going to come out of that."   And it hasn’t.  Jump ahead to last night (Tuesday).  This guy came in and Carla waited on him.  I was looking at him and realized it was Joe.  I mean, I only saw him that one time last year, but I was sure it was him.  He kinda looked at me like he knew me from somewhere as well, but he didn’t say anything.  And I wasn’t about to say, "Hey! I know who you are."  Remember what I said about me being shy with a shy guy?   If he would have said something to me first I would have been like, "Oh yeah, I know who you are…"  Holy heck, if Chaz walked into *****, I could see him sneaking up behind me and putting his arms around my waist and kissing my cheek or something.  I mean, I could be married for all he knows, but he’d still approach me so boldly.  God, thats such a turn on!  I’m not saying Joe should have done something that bold, after all I’ve known Chaz a lot longer, but a man with confidence in himself should have said something.

Sara paying for some of her dates is a big no-no.  Asking guys out is a no-no too. And lending money?  Well, lets just say that I have my qualms about even lending money to my own family! At least in my opinion it is.  Has she ever let the man pursue her?  I know she’s probably lonely and wants so badly to fall in love.  Believe me, I know how that feels!  But I want a man to want me totally and completely and pursue me with passionate desire.  Ok, lets say that I did chase after a man and after everything was all said and done, I got him to marry me.  I think I would always be wondering, ‘Does he truly love me with his entire being and want to be with me or is he only with me because I ran after him?"  No, I want to look at husband someday and think, "He chose me."

questions answered

have I ever found money- a few dollars here and there.  I think the most I’ve ever found was a ten dollar bill.  My mom found $100 once.

have I ever lost money- not that I can recall

The last wedding I went to- Angela and Mark last March

How many times have I flown - four times- New Jersey, Boston, and Florida twice and I’m flying to Florida again in November

movie- First Knight
tv show- Working
cd- Actual Miles-Don Henley’s Greatest Hits (I have Whitney)

funny scene-  In an episode of Full House, Danny forced a bickering Stephanie and DJ to stay in their room together until they got along.  Stephanie says to her beloved stuffed animal, Mr.. Bear, "So, Mr.. Bear, when do you think DJ will come to her senses and apologize?"  DJ answers, "When that Bear answers you out loud."

new questions

have you ever had a slumber party?  If so what is the most amount of people you’ve had over?-  yes.  I think the most I’ve had was six.

would you rather be two inches taller or twenty pounds thinner- two inches taller.

do you know how to ride a bike?- yes

physical turn offs in a man- a hairy back, long fingernails, dirty fingernails, red hair, white-blonde hair, a body-builder type built.

Ok, say someone took a video of you taking a shower or changing or something and they posted it on the internet and you found out that all the men you’ve ever had crushes on had the opportunity to see it, but declined.  Would you feel relieved or insulted?- I think I would initially feel relieved but then I’d think "Hey, aren’t I sexy enough for you?"  (lol)

ever been "flashed" or mooned by someone?- no

ever been "goosed" by someone? - yes.  Chaz- who else?

ever cheated on a test?- Yes, unfortunately.

ever cut class?- yes.

Well, that’s all for now.  I’m sorry this is pretty short but I have to try and sleep a little bit!  Take care and God bless!

Subject: I wasn’t exactly sitting …

Hi, Michele!

Re: "sitting" on the sofa; I was more … um… laying down. (insert red face here.) I had stood by the arm and fell backward onto the sofa so I was laying on the sofa with my legs hanging over the arm … are you getting a mental picture of the embarrassment here? No, my boss hasn’t said anything about it. I’m glad, I know myface woul turn as red as a beet.

I am also a huge Garfield fan! He is *so* funny, with his laid-back self. I used to have Garfield underwear, which brings me to an amusing (?) Trent story. (Curious much?) I may have mentioned that Trent used to live near us. One day he said that I could ride home with him. (I think I asked - you KNOW I was in heaven!) As we were heading home, he suddenly felt compelled to go to McDonald’s for a burger; I believe he bought me one too. I’m digressing there - it’s such a good memory for me! Anyway, as I was getting my stuff out of the car, he said jokingly, "be sure to get everything: we don’t want to start any rumors." This was when I was in high school - I would have loved to start some rumors. Anyway, I told Chell what he said, and mentioned my Garfield undies, and I said saucily, "Well, Trent already knows about my Garfield undies." To this day, she will call me "Garfield" whenever she thinks of it.

I’ll see the Cute Pony-tailed guy this evening. Will I speak to him about almost hitting his car? Doubtful. I agree with your thoughts on shyness in relationships. You mentioned waiting for the guy to make a move: if I’d been just a little more talkative, surely Trent would’ve been powerless to resist me! (LOL) I am like you: my future husband will definitely be the pursuer. I would love to be gutsy enough to actually make a play for a guy I liked. But there’s that whole "what if I tried and he rejected me?" question burning in my mind. I usually decide that the fantasy is better than the reality. My sister, God bless her, is the type that will ask guys out. She has maybe four or five times in her life that I know of. I admire her for that, but she gets so upset when they turn her down (and they usually have). Years ago, one guy went out with her (after she asked him out first) for two weeks, borrowed $80 from her to fix his car and disappeared. Oh, and she paid when they went out. Yeah, I’d love to meet that guy - with the business end of my bat!

I can believe that the customer would lift the sheet to get to the merchandise then act like "well it was out." It’s like, "Well we put it under a sheet so the less stupid customers would understand that it wasn’t available yet." What else can you do? Put signs all around the sheet-covered display that say, "Do not open until (date)" or "NO! These aren’t ready! This means you!" Heck even then, someone would get one and try to buy it!

**recommendations**
cd - Whitney/Whitney Houston
movie - Romancing the Stone (loved Groundhog Day!)
TV show - That 70’s Show (really liked Charles In Charge)

funny moment- From Wings - I love the whole episode where they’ve dug up the time capsule and are reading letters of what they thought their lives would be like. In all of their letters, Helen is still a tad overweight. After hearing the guys’ letters she says, "Well, that’s just great. In your future (to Tim Daly’s character) I wasn’t even on the planet, and in yours (to the other guy’s character) I *was* the planet."

new questions- ANSWERED!

do you have any credit cards?  If so, how many?- one credit card.

are you the type of person who does something right away or do you wait until the last minute?-  I am such a procrastinator. I tell people: "I work best under pressure." I don’t know if it’s true, but it’s what I tell people.

if you could choose, what color would you want your eyes to be?- I think I’d choose blue - which they are.

have you ever been a bridesmaid or a maid of honor?- no.  I’m gonna start using your expression: "Never a bridesmaid … never a bride!"

do you or have you ever belonged to a health club? no

do you have a tv and/or vcr in your bedroom?- I have a tv.

Nuevos Questionos (I’d like to apologize to Spanish people everywhere for that…)

Have you ever found money? When I was little, I happened upon $20 laying in the middle of a department store. As I recall, my dad tried to turn it in, but no one claimed it so we got to keep it! Several times at Cracker Barrel I found fives laying around on the kitchen floor.

Have you ever lost money? I lost a wallet that had about $8 in it once.

When was the last wedding you went to? I believe that it was my high school chum’s wedding in about 1995. It was nice - she was a little choked up while saying her vows. (Later I was devastated to learn she’s gotten divorced - she was the *last* person I would’ve thought would get divorced!)

How many times have you flown in an airplane? One trip - both ways. In 10th grade a group from high school went to Washington, DC.

That’s it for today. Talk to you later! God bless!
