At least among bloggerettes. <BR/><BR/>(I think you're cool too.)<BR/><BR/>jamie: Don't let your secrets make you sick! I've had to make myself actively stop thinking about some of what I'm packing around. I figure it isn't going to help me to concentrate on it. It's not something I can change, or would even try to. If I keep it in the forefront of my mind, I start to get the mental jitters, and I also start feeling like my brain's going to burst. It's better to dig a hole and bury some secrets for now. <BR/><BR/>Happy new year to you too! xoxoGeohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13928364622023202837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8236210.post-1167638332041792562007-01-01T00:58:00.000-07:002007-01-01T00:58:00.000-07:00Geo, I too am keeping sevrets for family members t...Geo, I too am keeping sevrets for family members that are killing me, with a capital K and I can't wait until everythign is over and done with because I feel like I am living in bizarro world now and nothing can surprise me at this point. I mean...it's so much that i almost can't talk to anyone for fear that all this craziness will explode out of me. Suffice it to say that my siblings and their spouses never cease to amaze me (and not in a good way this time) and just might be the death of me!But on a lighter note, it's just now 2007!

Oh nonononononononono, you must have mistaken me for somebody else. There's no need for anybody to feel intimidated by me except for maybe bad dentists. If it takes me posting weirds to help you feel at home, then I've got plenty more where that first batch came from! <BR/><BR/>I was <I>very very</I> glad to meet you today.

But a post entitled "my six weirds" was too good to pass up.<BR/><BR/>I'll have to consider the 6 weirds meme....Sister Pottymouthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10987391736782375817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8236210.post-1167377716207381622006-12-29T00:35:00.000-07:002006-12-29T00:35:00.000-07:00b.: The only idiotic person around here is perhaps...b.: The only idiotic person around here is perhaps the one who likes to invent words that probably no one else understands, to suit her own purposes. I confess another weird: I have Creative Vocabulary Syndrome, or if your prefer the Latin, you can call it Loosus lipsus, and I am the bane of the existence of at least several English language purists. I'm a slangmonger. (See?)<BR/><BR/>Überweis teeth? Those are found in the grin with an unnaturally healthy glow, the (ir)radiating kind. I am told that there are more perfect überweis (<I>über</I> in German means super- and <I>weis </I>means white) teeth per capita in Utah than in most other states. Is this true? I don't know, but from the looks of the ads in many locally-grown magazines, I wouldn't be suprised.<BR/><BR/>Do you want teeth from dentistry heaven? It's perfectly okay by me. I'm not trying to express a prejudice here. I'm just not personally the cosmetically-enhanced type. Having said that, let's not discuss my fondness for push-ups and control tops, or my pipe dream to buy a leg waxer.<BR/><BR/>cw: I think I'm more distracted than I am intentionally tantalizing. Even back in high school, my best girlfriend (I refer you to <A HREF="http://onbrightstreet.blogspot.com/2006/12/withdrawals-deposits.html" REL="nofollow">yesterday's post</A>, item of business number one) wrote in my yearbook that there were three words that best described me: annoying, elusive, and . . . I forget the other one, but it was more complimentary. I remember being so shocked by <I>elusive</I>. But over time that same "complaint" has been lodged against me in various terms, and I see that it's true enough, though not intentional. I'm less secretive than I was growing up (it had its place back then) and I maintain that nowadays it's more about getting distracted and losing my place. I repeat the tired stories and forget to tell the ones no one's ever heard. <BR/><BR/>Heavens, that was another blog post!Geohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13928364622023202837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8236210.post-1167364382024178162006-12-28T20:53:00.000-07:002006-12-28T20:53:00.000-07:00As always, you crack me up.
