So here are my plans for the rest of my life. How do they sound?

I'm in my mid-thirties now, working full time in education and working part time on a Master's degree.

After I finish that, I want to get a fellowship (even a dinky one) to get a PhD. Or work as a TA, whatever. I'm willing to live in dinky, ratty, CHEAP grad student housing while doing it. (And my husband and daughter, amazingly, are willing, too. He'd be working full-time during all this, as he has been.)

Then, once I have the PhD, I want to avoid gainful employment as long as I can, as all overeducated people should do.

After that, possibly an inheritance will come our way and I'll REALLY be able to loll about. And husband will be able to loll about, too, and maybe get that history degree he's always wanted. Oh I forgot, and we'll be full-time activists and part-time rabble rousers. I think I just repeated myself.

Travel my ass off, be a total thorn in the side of republicans, work for the betterment of all people.

Then as an old lady, I want to be a real hell raiser. Who's gonna say anything to me? I'll be OLD! At that point, I can REALLY tear it up. Sending around petitions in the nursing home, staging protests over the quality of the food.

Doesn't that sound like a great plan?

Go to New York and crash on bettyellen's couch and find Rabrrrrrr and totally drive him insane.

Make bettyellen buy me a knish on Coney Island. My life will be complete.

'cause I'm going to crash on her couch too.

I'm going to use my mafia connections to help her out with a little problem and she's going to totally corrupt me and teach me how to dance on tables while singing torch songs.

me and bouncy are going to the top of the empire state building and we are going to go downtown and goof on people, no i mean, we are going to talk to real new yawkers! LOL.
bouncy said such nice things about new york one night, she made me tear up. who would not want to show the city to someone like that?

The first time I was there, I was by myself for 5 days. I talked to lots of locals. My mom never taught me not to talk to strangers. ha,ha.

Brownies...special brownies? BTW, you'll be relieved to know I ate something.

Tiffany's. Yum.

and get our tits out!

ROFL!!!!

and i want you to know that you were right, i should not have opened that letter last week....
strangely enough, the next day, i was thinking... i should have listened to bouncy! it felt weird thinking that. but next time maybe i'll listen.... :shrug:

(as long as you don't slip and call me by it on the boards) so you don't have to think weird things like that, LOL!

But I'm sorry about the letter, hon.......I have too much experience in that department. Crazy family member, huh?

anxiety almost a week later.
your real name is M?
MS!

What is M?

:hug: <----about that family member

Sounds good to me.

I know you'd like that, eh? LOL!

GOd damnit that's yet ANOTHER one.

What happened with panty girl? Not actually teasing, just curious if it worked out?

Especially when nothing happened

But I applaud your integrity.

Maybe the next fish.

thread.
or do i have to?

Wait, would it get me extra points on the Canadian immigration exam????

In all seriousness (and I know you weren't), he's just so not into money and IS very into the idea of him being the only one....allowed to.

But hey I did say they were plans for the rest of my life! Women typically outlive men! If you're younger than me, when I'm in my 80s, you're ON!!!

Hot 80 year old sex!!!

:bounce:

flashing people from the top of the Empire State Building. That's very important. I've already done it at a couple of Hard Rock Cafes (out the window of upper floors). That cabbie nearly fell over.

when i was barely 15!
i can freely admit this now that it can't embarrass my mum.

All my flashing has been of the chest variety and as an adult. POST college!

Although I will say I wouldn't ever get them out when I am expected to or asked to, as in Mardi Gras in New Orleans. That just ruins it if it is expected.

You have to go to the top of a very tall building and flash THE WORLD!

LOL!

(I never mooned anyone. I feel so out of it!)

while my cousin honked the horn. this being the hour that the pubs closed and the steeets were filled with drunks we were angry at. we did it because we were sober, and obviously, broke and it was ireland and we were teenagers and we couldn't find the VW filled with german hippie greens.

A group of us used to go on an annual camping trip along a river in a state park. We were a kind of wild bunch, and would reserve the entire group camp for the weekend. 4 times a day, a riverboat cruise passed our camp, and every time, we all ran down to the beach and mooned the riverboat. Poor tourists, cruising along, and lo and behold about 35 bare asses facing them.

I know for damned sure we need more liberal teachers here in Texas. Can't your area use more good Democrats to keep the Jesus bots out of our schools? Why do you wan to sell out and live on other peoples money like Repukes do?

:eyes:

You're in the LOUNGE. Don't take it so seriously.
