Pretty good.

Work is busy, and I have a friend coming in from out of town to visit for a bit. I am really looking forward to seeing her.

Not cat injuries today. And, trying to respond to the MBCoTD questions as thoughtfully as possible.

Other than that, looking forward to the weekend.

How are you doing?

I'm alright.. cant complain too much.. I'm ready for the weekend.. I'm pretty much sitting here watching the clock waiting for the day to be over with. and it doesn't help that the office is cold today..

When does your friend get in?

[YouWantitWhen????]

Posted: 3/10/06 at 4:53pm

About 7:30 my time, presuming no delays. I am not sure at this point if she is staying with me or someone else. I will just wait for the call!

I have not seen her in over a year - I am really looking forward to catching up. I think I need to clean a few things up when I get home tonight!

Ooh, that's fun. Where are you guys going when she's in town?

Wow, 35 years in one place - I can't even IMAGINE. Five years seems like too much, already!

I am not quite sure what we are doing. She is coming into town for an ex's wedding. I just know to be on standby for the weekend!

I hear my BBQ getting ready to go a grilling.

And, she loves my two cats, and was there when I first adopted both Stoli and Zorra. So, it will be great to see her!

Wow, an ex's wedding! Talk about a good break-up!

Oooh, BBQ? So did you end up getting the ribeyes?

[YouWantitWhen????]

Posted: 3/11/06 at 8:57pm

I did not get rib-eyes, because she is going to go out a bit to visit him during the Rehersal Dinner, and them come back here. And, it is too damn cold to BBQ!

My other friend mentioned in an email to his sister that he was getting ready to "move home" which scares her to death. Their mom is in the middle of fighting cancer and going through treatment, and the last thing she needs is him coming home and being under the influence while there. She is hoping that he is just making it up right now.

He has never even acnkowledged to me the money I sent - but has done so to others. I doubt he will call me. I have thought about trying to call him to say that if he needs someone to listen, I will, because he clearly needs someone to talk to.

But, no money, and there is no way he can stay here. It is still quite a mess.

Do you have any way to get ahold of him if you needed/wanted to? What's stopping you from taking him out for breakfast and just talking? (That's not a nagging thing; I'm actually wondering if there's any obstacles you'd face.)

[YouWantitWhen????]

Posted: 3/11/06 at 9:41pm

That is exactly what I am thinking doing.

I have a cell phone number. He screens his call and often does not take them from people he does not want to talk to.

[Type_A_Tiff]

Posted: 3/11/06 at 10:22pm

Call from a pay phone? Work? Friend's house?

I think it would be a step in the right direction, for sure.

Someone give me a hug or some heavy drugs.

[DG]

Posted: 3/13/06 at 2:39pm

Tiff - here's a big *HUG* - and I'll slip some 'happy pills' into your pocket while I'm doing it!

[mabel]

Posted: 3/13/06 at 2:39pm

What's up, Tiff? Having a bad day??


Oh yeah...*hugs*

*searches for the heavy drugs*

[YouWantitWhen????]

Posted: 3/13/06 at 2:41pm

Tiff, you do not deserve the crap being thrown at you.

Shake it off, and don't let it get you down.

You are a fabulous woman, and only trying to create something that would help develop and foster those who wanted feedback to develop their skills.

The cats send you a big old soft purr and a hug, as do I (at least the hug part).

Do not let this get to you.

[Type_A_Tiff]

Posted: 3/13/06 at 2:51pm

Thanks, DG. Even cyber hugs and drugs are more than welcome at this point!

Nic, go read the Idol thread.

YWIW, thank you for understanding. I can't believe I've been on the defensive for the last however many hours. I'm a Libra - I HATE conflict. Abhor it.

And I'll accept the kitty hugs to...yes, folks, that's what it's come to. Hugs, drugs and a bit o' pussies.

[mabel]

Posted: 3/13/06 at 2:55pm

Yikes...just skimming through the past couple pages it looks kind of messy. Sorry, Tiff!

[DG]

Posted: 3/13/06 at 2:55pm

Tiff - you have been consistently presenting yourself well throughout the 'debacle'. Honestly, I think most are simply expressing their thoughts on the process in general - and that's an interesting debate.

You have NO REASON to defend yourself to anybody. You didn't do anything 'behind someone's back' - you were completely up front about the process from day one. People chose to participate of their own free will.

People can have their opinions on the concept, but I don't think anyone's judging you negatively - and if they are, that's their own damn problem. Again, you have NOTHING to defend.

Posted: 3/13/06 at 5:33pm

Thanks, DG. It means a lot because I know you guys would be straight with me if I was in the wrong. I don't have any problem with people criticizing the process, or even BWW Idol in particular. I agree with a lot of what's been said. But the circular arguments and some posts that just seem vindictive for the sake of being vindictive and spiteful make what could've been an interesting debate just another masochistic thread I have to click on.

"No good deeds go unpunished," right?

And thanks, Nic.

OY!!! That's all I have to say..

Tiff try to walk away at this point.. come back tomorrow.. I'm avoiding the thread in order to no go postal

[Type_A_Tiff]

Posted: 3/13/06 at 5:50pm

Well you say that but you haven't tried to defend me either. There's sass and 'tude in person...where is it now?? Donde esta?

But yeah, I'm going to go shopping soon. I just want to put a bit of closure to things so I don't go postal on a salesclerk, and I don't have an anxiety attaack on what I have to anticipate when I return.

[YouWantitWhen????]

Posted: 3/13/06 at 5:53pm

Walk away from your computer, in fact, turn it off and then walk away, and do not read the damn thread anymore.

Just say I am done. I have said all I can, and will not waste anymore time rehashing the same issue over and over again.

WALK AWAY NOW!

[Type_A_Tiff]

Posted: 3/16/06 at 7:57pm

The thread died because anyone worth talking to, we could talk to via PM or AIM!
