I'm bored

[Ava]

*le sigh*

[huskerlaw]

1. Me too.

Or, more correctly, I just don't want to do anything. I've got a huge list of things that need to be done, but I DON'T WANNA! ;)

[Ava]

2. i got a bunch of stuff done today that i had to

now i'm tired and bored. i wish heroes would come on already so i'd have something to do :rofl:

week nights in a small town such because there is literally nothing to do. weekends are still bad, but not as bad.

[billyskank]

3. I'm on the road.

I'm on US23 S in the passenger seat while Joani is driving us to lizziegrace's Ohio meetup. I'm supposed to me Mapquesting but I'm slacking off on DU instead. ;)

:hi:

[Haole Girl]

5. Hey there!

:hi:

[billyskank]

8. Hi!

:hi:

It's dark in here but luckily I can touch type. ;)

[Ava]

6. slacker!

a late welcome to the states btw. having a good trip so far? have fun at lizziegrace's meetup and stay safe on the road!

[billyskank]

9. That's me.

I'm having a great time, if a little emotional. :hi:

[Ava]

10. that's good!

hope you continue to have a blast! :hug:

[Haole Girl]

4. Hi Ava!

Do you watch Monday night TV? Some good things on...even though I don't watch much TV.

I love that show "Two and a Half Men"! It has some great one-liners! :D :hi:

[Ava]

7. i watch heroes

besides that i don't. i tivo the shows i like and usually watch them late at night before heading to bed. that way i can fast forward through the commercials ;)

[KamaAina]

11. Time for another staredown with Kiko?

Watch out when he pins his right ear back!

[Ava]

12. hahaha, kiko is out hunting right now

but when he gets back i might just do that :rofl:

[SPKrazy]

13. so get a life

:yoiks:





:hide:



:hi:

jk

[DarkTirade]

14. Where can you find one of those? I'm in the market for one. :)

[Ava]

16. how much are you will to pay?

mine is up for grabs :rofl:
(cause it's so wonderful and all :P)

[DarkTirade]

17. I think I'll pass on having the life of a soon-to-be 17 year old...

I had REALLY bad acne at that age... :)

[Ava]

18. dammit.. i was looking to earn some money

:P

[DarkTirade]

24. Well, you're old enough to get a job now. :P

[Ava]

25. i already have one

so nah! :P

[DarkTirade]

30. In that case, my condolances. :)

[Ava]

32. thankyou, although none needed

it's a pretty good job, decent pay, and i'm earning the money i need to for the trip i'm taking at the end of this year.

[DarkTirade]

34. I tried to get a job when I was your age. Got one too... sort of.

Unfortunately they had a manditory drug test that you HAD to take within 24 hours of your interview... and they didn't bother to mention that the drug testing place they used was only open for 4 hours a day. So I got there 15 minutes after they closed, and I couldn't take it. Therefore I couldn't get the job.

Ironically, when I applied there again the next summer, I got the job, everything was going well... they were using a new drug testing place that was not only right down the street instead of all the way across town, but was open from 8 in the morning until 8 at night. And I finished my interview around 7. So I went there right away. Figured I'd get it out of the way ASAP.

Only one problem... the drug testing place didn't send the results to the right place. And the only person at the store where I'd applied who was even ALLOWED to request the results again... was on vacation. For that entire month. (*&%ing beauracracy. So I had to wait a month and a half to start working after I'd already been hired. What was supposed to be a summer job to earn money for college turned out to be just barely enough to pay the deposit and first month's rent on my apartment.

[Ava]

35. that sucks

:(

guess one good thing about small towns is that every body knows every body so when you are looking for a job it's fairly easy to find one if you know people who can offer them.

[DarkTirade]

38. Yeah, the area I lived in was just one big urban sprawl.

Nobody knew nobody except their next-door-neighbors. And there were practically no small businesses around, just chains. And nary a single job within walking distance, which sucked because I didn't have a car. And I couldn't get my liscense until I could afford to pay the extra bit on my parents' car insurance that would have come from having an extra driver in the house. Of course, I couldn't pay that until I got a job. And I couldn't get a job without a liscense. It was all very cyclical and futile. I think that's when I figured out how the world works. :P

[Ava]

39. hmmm.. maybe i should enjoy my small town while it lasts

because this time next year i won't be here anymore :rofl:

[DarkTirade]

40. Small towns and big cities have their own benefits... unfortunately the place I'm at right now

isn't either one of those. Like I said, it's just one big urban sprawl. Not a city, not a town... just a big lump of people spread across the area.

[Ava]

41. sounds like some places in 'bama

small towns have their positives and negatives. it's a love/hate relationship. ;)

i'd love to get out of here and i hate being stuck here for now. :rofl:

i kid i kid ;).. i'm sure once i leave here i'll miss it... maybe. :P

[DarkTirade]

46. I know there's at least one small-town thing that I miss...

wild blackberries. Even if you can find 'em by the side of the road here(rare, but I've seen them), they get picked by pedestrians and homeless people the minute they ripen. Back when I lived in a small town as a kid, we had an actual FOREST behind our house, complete with blackberry bushes. Every year we'd pick a crapload of them and make pies and stuff. No paying out the nose for 'organic' berries, no berries covered in pesticides... just natural, wild-grown ones.

And since it looks like I'll be moving back to that hometown really soon, I might be able to get ahold of them again soon. :)

[Ava]

47. my great grandfather has a garden behind his house

he grows all kinds of stuff but there are two things out there that are completely wild: blackberries and fig trees.

[DarkTirade]

48. Come to think of it... I've never had a fig outside of newton form.

Huh. I just realized that. :)

And I recall seeing a fig tree before when I was younger, a small one in a pot. Only a few feet high at the time. I never saw it when it was bearing fruit though.

[Ava]

49. they aren't very good imo

and the trees can get pretty big ;)

[regnaD kciN]

31. I wouldn't mind having my own life as a soon-to-be 17 year old back...

That was a good year. I could enjoy the nice parts, and fix the parts where I know better now. ;-)

[Ava]

33. hey, but living with regret is no way to live at all

eh? ;) :hi:

[DarkTirade]

42. Yeah, I can think of at least one thing I'd do differently...

... and she was really cute... :P

I keed, I keed.

She wasn't just really cute, she was INCREDIBLY cute. :)

[Ava]

43. men

:eyes:

you're all pigs! :P

[DarkTirade]

44. Oink oink. :)

Actually I probably wouldn't do anything different with that girl... if I had she probably would have wanted to marry me or something. And she had some issues. I'll take not-completely-nucking-futs over hot any day. :)

[Ava]

15. like i said, school nights - they suck

no one around here has a life on school nights. *le sigh*

[JTG of the PRB]

19. Well... The Rockies game is on in half an hour.

Though I doubt you're interested, but I'm certain that it will cure MY boredom.

And in the end, isn't that what's REALLY important? Me NOT being bored? I think so.

[Ava]

20. rockies? is that a baseball team?

:P :rofl:

[JTG of the PRB]

21. Why, yes. Yes it is!

Smartass.

:rofl:

[Ava]

22. lucky guess!

:rofl:

you know i'm not a total dunce.. i live in house with a guy(my stepdad) that loves baseball. :P

[JTG of the PRB]

23. I know you're not a dunce. You're pretty on the ball.

For a punk kid, that is. :P

[Ava]

26. a punk kid?

does that make me cool now? :rofl:

[EFerrari]

27. Ava -- I got my tags and I LOVE them.

I wear one and gave one away.

Don't forget to PM me about bulk buying. I want them in time for 10/27 if we can manage it.

:hi:

[Ava]

28. oh ok! sorry i completely forgot with all the craziness of this past week

i'll get that to you asap.

and thanks!!

[EFerrari]

29. No worries! There's a lot going on.

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]
