My parents took me to Red Lobster for dinner for my birthday. I got the sweet and spicy shrimp as part of the endless shrimp. And I must say sinning has never been so delicious!:eat:

Read the Bible? That always puts alot of people to sleep, lol.

I'm going to look up videos and learn how to wear a hijab, and make people think I'm an oriental Muslimah, even though I'm not a Muslimah, lol. I bought two shiny scarves from Ardene's, and I HAVE to use them somehow!

I didn't try the bible but I did try the UN resolutions. I was up to Aug of 48 when I realized it wasn't going to work.

Good luck on the scarf thingy. I can't get a scarf look good on me. That's why i wear hats or snoods

LOL, snoods... I always found the English word rather amusing!

I've always been fascinated by the Abrahamic religions and how they wear headcoverings.

I love love love this site too! I might even order one, because the selection is sooo pretty!

Too late for your immediate problem, but one thing that works for me is the meditation technique I use in my martial arts:

- close your eyes
- try to clear your mind
- breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth
- concentrate on making your exhale as slow and long as possible. Once you feel like you've emptied your lungs, use your diaphragm to get a bit more out.
- inhale and repeat as necessary.

I don't know if it'll work for you, but it works for me.

Works for me too. Along with an occasional glass of wine.

It is Sunday. The first Sunday in October. October is the month of pumpkins. Pumpkins are orange. Orange is a color. Nothing rhymes with orange.

I can't relax myself that much. I have actually stopped breathing. but I have tried self-hypnosis and that has worked on occasion, but wasn't working last night. But that's ok. my husband had the cure. :D
 
I gave $100 dollars to a homeless person, and realised later that he was probably a drug addict. The stupidest thing I have ever done in my life today. XD

I haven't given that much before, but I've given quite a bit. I don't know if he was an addict or not, he had kind of a jittery voice. If he was an addict, he was pretty prepared for the questions.

I might strike up a chat if I see him again -- probably wouldn't give him any more money, though.

Oh... Steve Paikin is great. Interviewing candidates from all the major provincial parties, he drops this gem:

David Dodge, the former head of the Bank of Canada, has said that all of your platforms are "from fantasy land", and that whoever gets elected will be seen to have lied. How do you respond to this?

:D

And somehow he manages to do it without coming off as antagonistic or even aggressive.
