3 things about me

[yui]

You have your lifesaving, yes?

I got my WSI certification my freshman year in college, and somehow have managed to keep it all this time, although I really don't know why.

Lifesaving, yes...instructor, no! I'm impressed that you've maintained it - that's not an easy thing to do if you're not actively engaged in it!

The first year I did it was the toughest, honestly. It can be really hard, all those time minimums, etc. After that it's gotten slightly easier, although I don't see it ever being "easy."

The first year I did it, I think I slept like the dead for close to 20 hours afterwards, and found muscles when I woke up that I didn't know I had. Pain.

Expired Qualifications

I HAD the following qualifications:

1. Surf Lifesaving surfboat and line
2. Firefighting under Nuclear and/or Biological attack
3. Escape from ditched helicopter at sea

I couldn't do any of those now and apart from the first I never had to demonstrate the skill once I had acquired it. I had to demonstrate the surf lifesaving in competitions. My performance was adequate(=satisfactory) but not good enough to win or even come close. I tried to demonstrate surf lifesaving in Cornwall after my return to the UK but there was never enough surf. I qualified on 5 metre waves and practised on much larger ones. In Cornwall 2 metre waves were thought to be big.

Uhhh I hate to point out the obvious but....

that chicken is BAKED. It's not fried.

(and I do make something like that, only with dijon mustard, olive oil and breadcrumbs.)

Food snob!

I make oven fried Chicken. Roll the chicken around on some egg then roll it around in flour, little paprika and some Fresh ground pepper. (little fresh oregano tastes yummy too) Place in the botom of your pan put an inch of olive oil in the pan cube some onion and layit around the chicken for flavor. Cover with foil

Yummy Yummy Yummy

We do it a little differently but yours sounds yummy too. I may have to try the onion thing.

*snicker* You just called a gay man a food snob...He eats fajitas and taquitos for breakfast.

1. I just made a batch of chocolate cookies w/ peanut butter chips.

2. My favorite thing to do when I have a day to myself is to go for a looooooong car ride.

3. I can cross my toes.

 

[nikkijames]

1. I drink nothing but Pepsi or iced tea.

2. I envy short women who can wear heels.

3. I want my boobs reduced.

 

[OhMissScarlett]

1. I cannot believe dinner is served, dishes are done and I am sitting down by 8pm. It's a miracle.

2. I am one of those short women who can wear heels, but I rarely leave the house, so it's not really necessary.

3. My ideal time to myself is a hot bath with no one poking their fingers underneath the door during.

I get doggie noses under my bathroom door, LOL! And I can wear heels too if they are only two inches. (5'0 barefoot)

Did you harrass your hostess, evil boy?

1. I'm trying, not sure how successfully, to keep from flaming the bigot that just posted in my culture thread.

2. Another fight this evening, how lovely.

3. Of course, it's all my fault, always is. I'm wrong, and he's right, because, of course, dinosaurs never existed. All those scientists just made 'em up. (oh, and carbon is a "man-made" element)

When my husband left this morning did he go to your house?

Oh, dear god! You don't have one like that too, do you?

 

[ElizabethWest]

Oh, dear god! You don't have one like that too, do you?

Well, when I said 'left the house this morning', I meant for good. He was picking up the last of his things. The divorce will be final in 60 days.

Good for you. I'm still in the planning stages, myself, but it can't get here fast enough, believe me.

I'm still laughing about carbon being man made. That's what you get when you quit school in the eighth grade, I suppose.

I just noticed the 'trapped' location. Lots of luck to you.



And two college degrees doesn't make you any more enlightened, believe me...

 

[ElizabethWest]

Thanks Miss S.

 

[cloudy]

to you and Cloudy both.

Thanks, love. This, too, shall pass.

and all that other feel-good nonsense.

 

[~photoguy~]

[minsue]

• I'm trying to learn how to fake a good attitude before I get to work Monday morning.
• I just realized all I've eaten today is bacon, beef jerky, and corn dogs. Yes, I know how pathetic that is.
• Given my personality, eating/exercizing habits, and genetics, I fully expect to have a heart attack before age 35

 

[carsonshepherd]

1. My neck hurts for the 10th day in a row, it's never hurt this long before.

2. I don't believe in vitamins. Especially not herbs, because I don't think they work unless they're in their natural form. (and with vitamins, you pee most of it out before it's of any benefit.)

3. I watch almost zero TV, other than what is on while I'm passing through the room. 30 minutes a day, tops.

 

[moonlight elf]

1. I've been a bit sick

2. I have my GRE's tomorrow...so not ready for the exam *sigh*

3. I'm hungry but too lazy to cook
