    Ironhead!!!! I use to love to hate Earnhart while he was trading paint with my boy Awesome Bill From Dawsonville. Since Elliott's all but retired and Earnhart's gone, NASCAR's just not as interesting anymore. And don't tell me you don't know who Awesom Bill is.

    That's perfect. Not just a house that you love but a neighborhood you can stay in & call home for that long. So many neighborhoods go to pot over the years. Been forced out of several, including my LAST one .

    I didn't see this post until Kiwi replied... IMSA, you do realize that I AM a woman too, right? A very heterosexual one at that, so I wasn't trying to steal your thunder or anything, just have someone to chat with... (Or do I have the wrong idea? If so, I apologize.)

    Peace,

    I just fell into that house GT. The area was ok and the price was right, and my dad said buy the house or you're going to college this fall. That part of Portland never really went down hill and now is real popular with people moving into town since it's only about 2 miles from downtown.

    I was just thinking this would be a good thread for all the members we have with ADD, etc, coz it really is about nothing in particular (even though it was supposed to be about SOMETHING) and see there is no hijack/spam risk! :D
    You know, for when you want to gab for gabbing's sake? (Sound's like a thing you do with fish LOL)
    Oh gawd, I need to go to bed...

    ROFL!!! Oh, ok. I get it.... :D :D
    Cute! No, I think it's cute and making me smile. I'm going through a very tough time right now so I'll take any smiles/laughter I can get. Not looking for romance though. *giggles*

    Yes, I do know that your a woman. I just didn't want lostkiwi to get the wrong idea since as soon as I find my letterman sweater we're going to go steady. It didn't enter my mind for a second you were trying to steal my thunder. You could if you wanted to though.

    Interior is comfy. I love the performance package. sticky 40 series tires, taught, but not brutal suspension, QUICK handling, 245 hp & only 2900 pounds give it a nice power/weight ratio. I can embarrass a (non-Cobra) Mustang GT easily. 23 MPG city & 28-30 on the road, which ain't too bad for a quick car. First car I've had with a real back seat in years, but it's a driver's car. :)

    Are you flirting? You are, aren't you?
    Right then dperino, I want that Harley ride and weekend of debauchery - NOW. And I don't want a lotto ticket!
    (Husband and kids can fend for themselves...)
    Together we can wreak havoc on all the relationships!
    Hmmph, not around. Work tomorrow is no excuse. Probably had too many of those rum soaked crooks. LOL
    Happy to cheer you up Gina, seems to be one of the few places I get to laugh at the moment :)
    IMSA and my "relationship" is from a thread I started when I first landed in the lounge, "What was your first REAL job". If you read that you will see what's going on. It shouldn't be too far back.

    No, I would never steal your thunder... :D I'm just sitting back and learning, LOL!

    I didn't understand when I posted, this thread is going so fast. (I should really default my IE settings so I wouldn't have to allow active X controls every time, I guess.)

    I think it's great that we insomniacs can find a place to go where no one tries to pick you up (unless you're just casually flirting, like you and Kiwi, and that's an innocent thing.)

    Ginanatl,

    Sounds like lostkiwi and I just broke up, well we would have broke up id I could have found my letterman's sweater so we could go steady. So what's you sign?

    IMSA
     
  15. Ginanatl

    Ginanatl Specialist

    LOL! Gosh, I wouldn't know HOW to flirt! (I am learning tonight at this thread, though, for future reference.) I am going to do a search for that thread Kiwi. You've peaked my curiosity. :D

    Peace,

    ROFL!! I don't think you two really broke up, I just clarified things for her in my last post. I am just a bossy, stubborn, selfish Aries diva and I am only trouble anyway... Or so I've been told recently... :rolleyes:

    Peace,

    I'm working on my pick-up lines, what do you think? Pretty hot huh?Not that I would need them since I'm going steadt if i gould go steady if I could find my lettermans sweater.

    I don't think it's really flirting coz that would be dangerous. It's more of a battle of wits thing don't you think? Recall how things were? Now if there was no mention of real spouses etc you are into risky territory. This is just goofing around. :D

    <Tapping toes> You aren't even looking for the sweater are you?

    @Gina Here's the link to the thread http://www.majorgeeks.com/vb/showthread.php?t=34852
    And I don't buy the "I don't know how to flirt" bit for a minute! (I think I will away to bed, other half has long since gone..)
     
  21. IMSA

    Absolutly, 100% innocent!That’s why I keep mentioning the hubby and kids incase hubby or the kids find this thread. I wouldn’t want to get anyone needlessly in trouble. Now if I found that letterman’s sweater that could be a whole different story. Just kidding, I’m about as harmless and innocent as they come. I also have a warped sense of humor and I couldn't spell to save my life. Besides, I don’t know if I have the time and energy for another relationship.

  22. Ginanatl

    Yes, this is just innocent stuff. Both of you know that you are married and that it's just "play talk," so it is just goofing around. My ex used to "play flirt" with older women all the time to make their day (not saying you are older, I don't know your age) and I would just sit back and giggle. I thought it was the cutest thing in the world! Neither of you are doing anything I would disapprove of if I were attached to either of you.

    BTW, I found the thread you mentioned (YAY!) I responded to it so I could find it easier...

    Seriously? I've always been too.... serious to flirt. I'm missing a gene or something. You posted the thread when I found it! At least I will have something to read if you go off to bed though... I really enjoyed this little "chat."

    (pant, pant, pant...) Well, no, not that. :D

    Uhhh... carrying more than one passenger in reasonable comfort?

    My parents are in their upper 70s, and when they come to visit (fly in) I've got to have a rear door. My last car was an Escort GT, which was fun to drive, but I'd have needed a winch to get either parent out of the back seat.
     
  26. IMSA

    Well lets see, I'm 47 soon to be 48, in Portland Oregon, still have all my hair and it's not grey yet. Most of my girlfriends just call me "a hunk of burnin' love".

    I would have loved to hear the conversations between you and your folks about getting in and out of the Escort.

    Just noticed that. Did your ex tell you that? Well good for you that he is now your ex. No one had ever better talk to me like that or they'll find out the meaning of my "eagle eye" (another thread..) nickname. Way to go. Hope you're not sleepless over that.

    LOL. I'm missing that same gene. I married fairly young, was married for 23 years, and by the time I was "in the market" again, flirting and dating seem like something from another life. Somebody ELSE'S life. I can talk with just about anybody, but it always just stays friendly.




    So far at least.

    You never know what lies around the corner. ;)

    Wait a minute..."most of my girlfriends".....Hmph, I think your wife should keep you!

    @GT : we are working on "bad" remember? Maybe you should listen to the devil (oops, I mean dperino) after all. However, I still think that is nice that you would change your car to accomodate your parents. Not enough nice people left. Glad to know you ;)
     
  33. Ginanatl

    Ginanatl Specialist

    Yeah, kinda. That's what has kept me awake. Long story, but I'll make it short:

    1) He is a workaholic who is borderline verbally abusive.
    2) I actually WORK for this man too, so it makes things SO complicated. I am having to write an ad for someone to take my place and then train whoever I hire. (I don't sound so selfish if I am willing to do this, do I?) His business cannot run without me...
    3) We haven't lived in the same house for months now so we are separated...

    Anyway, that is 50% of what is wrong, other 50% is that I lost 5 good friends (4 to death and 1 has been missing since October) in the space of 3 years.

    I'm not trying to whine though. I just want to get this phase of my life over with and move onto the next...

    Peace,

    Ugh, just the thought of being in the market again. I was married for 15 years and we parted on good terms. Still good friends to this day. Don't care for the bar scene, girls looking for sugardaddy's ( Believe me, I've met a few, why I don't know), and women looking for a father to their kids. I've been in and out of the same relationship the past couple of years. I think I'll just sell homes and do woodworking. Maybe become a priest or something. Nah, like the opposit sex too much.

    Hang in there; there's light at the end of the tunnel. Stayed married to a VERY abusive wife for 23 years (I was somewhere between stupid and crazy). We're talking thrown objects and having to take knives & scissors away from her from time to time... sleeping alone because I didn't trust her enough to go to sleep toward the end.

    Been free for almost 10 years, and doing fine. See my score in the happiness thread. Of course, having been through hell does tend to make one appreciate what one has.

    I like it here because I have conversations. I don't have a lot of conversation at home lately. Well I talk and expect input but it doesn't happen a lot. I hadn't noticed too much until I joined here, every day I laugh a lot and I've missed that. But I am happy :)
     
  44. Ginanatl

    Ginanatl Specialist

    Yep, I saw and commented on that score! An abusive woman, huh? OUCH! It sounds like a nightmare...

    When you say you've been "free" I can really relate, in wanting to be free- not having him criticize any friends I make, not having him reduce me to tears... I could go on and on. I also want to remain free (after I get there) for some time as I don't trust my choices in a partner right now. Of course it will be complicated, but many others have done it (like yourself.)

    Thanks for sharing that with me! :D

    Peace,

    LOL. Fiddler on The Roof seemed appropriate. :D

    No, you're not missing a gene. Either out of practice, or just very shy, or both. You're still fairly young (compared to me, at least :rolleyes: ) and quite pretty. You'll do OK.

    You'd never know it to watch me gab around here, but I've always been shy in person. Can talk just fine once introduced, but slow to just go up to somebody and start things rolling. It's not a terminal illness though. Both of managed to land a mate once, albeit, not the best choices. Can happen again.

    If genes are all you need, Wranglers are on sale at WalMart. :D

    Much aloha, as Kiwi would say. ;)
