Wow I really did bore everyone to death.

Hey you're supposed to be an existentialist. I thought you might like.

SQT, I don't know many writers who actually like poetry, so, no, I don't think it's required. :-)

I'm still trying to make up for making Jack feel badly last night. I think I didn't apologize: I"m sorry!

So SQT, I took my son to karate for the first time this week, and I kept thinking of you. And then I realized, I'm the one who should be taking karate, not him. My husband always says I should take up boxing or something because I have lots of pent-up rage, LOL, and so karate seems like a better alternative than boxing. For me, anyway.

But the instructor kind of sucks.

No my comment had nothign to do with caps or no caps, it was just something I meant to say earlier and forgot, and remembered just now.

How long have you been studying karate?

No one ever sees it but my husband.

The instructor might be fine for adults. He's just not good for a flakey head-in-the-clouds 5-yr-old. :-) I think my son is too young for it, or not ready (though he thought he was until he got in the class), so I'm not going to take him back. Maybe when he's older.

I might try it in a few more years. I'm too busy right now and usually get out all my agression running. I like it because I can do it alone.

Yeah, I think he thought it would be just like wrestling with his dad. But he is extremely UN-agressive, so it's kind of a joke for him to try it now, not understanding any of it really.

"Maybe we should have a Jamie vs SQT no limit death match! "

With mud and bikinis?

Watching the small kids, I thought it was interesting to see that the little girls seemed to take it more seriously than the boys. The boys seemed to be there just because they wanted to be power rangers or something, whereas the girls (mostly) were paying more attention. It was fun to watch, anyway.

"I dont like to admit that Jamie exercises such control over my um existance. "

Oh?

"I’m kind of obsessive about exercise, so I run too. But I still can’t lose the last 10 pounds from having kids dammit! "

I went on the stress and starvation diet. Not fun at all but it worked. :-/

"No, I excercise…"

Please Jack, tell us all about it.

"Having children KILLED my metabolism."

It's really not fair, is it? It didn't happen to me until the second child, but it did happen.

Take an extra shot for me. I have no liquor or Nyquil in the house. Poor me.

Oh, a serious answer from JAck. I wasn't expectign that.

So THAT explains all those female rages we've had... :-P

I think I was born to be a construction worker or something. I actually love all that physical labor stuff. Digging holes, hammering things. Sounds like fun, Jack.

I'm watching As Good As It Gets, and here's a hilarious line from Nicholson's character: "I think people who talk in metaphors ought to shampoo my crotch." I never noticed that before.

Is he? I thought he was a literary author.

"I remember laughing so much watching that movie that I missed a lot of lines."

I'm a sap. I mostly remember crying my way through it.

You went vertical again!

Or was that your, uh, shaft?

LOL, "LUV" You're starting to sound like a teenager girl.

I haven't been watching the movie closely. Wouldn't want to risk Jack's wrath.

Vertical cave part. Now THAT's a new euphemism!

Admit it, we're boring you SQT.

But really, hope you're feeling better soon. Get some rest! Jack also needs rest, don't you, Jack?

Offend whom?

Night SQT!

Oh I just had to scroll way back to figure out what question you were talking about.

Nice, Jack. Very nice. That's all there is, huh? So predictable.

Heh.

LOL, and huh?

Oh noooo the echooooo.

Hitting the bong?

OR an altered state of exhaustion?
