Granted, but you don't have any Scott Summers glasses.

I wish people knew how to communicate. (work related)

I feel much better and I have the most loving, kind friends. Esp Cal. Thank you all.



I'm glad you're feeling better!

Today I feel optimistic. Things seem to be falling into place.
Granted, but you're stuck on plumbing detail for two weeks.

Since we are on chores, I wish someone would do all my laundry.
Suit and tie. Oh, not that kind of lounge.

Shorts and a t-shirt I guess. I don't do that much lounging.
Diet Coke today. I've pretty much quit drinking it, but once a week I still allow myself some.

Granted, but now your inbox is full of spam.

I wish my dog wouldn't bark so much.

I'd like to know why autocorrect thinks I am ok with a last minute camel.


You should check with Paul - he likes to send obscene texts and blame them on autocorrect!


In my case, autocorrect might prevent me from sending those.

I wish I had not hurt someone's feelings.
That's the kind of wish I only want to grant. How on earth can you ask me to spoil that?



I wish you wouldn't make wishes I don't want to spoil.


I'm glad you did that. It was killing me too.

Granted, but now your tasty morsels are spoiled.

I wish I had some unspoiled tasty morsels.

Granted, but you were to busy posting to the "End-of-the-line" forum to notice.

I wish I could travel through time....


Granted, but you arrive at the end of the universe.

I wish I had more hours to play.
I am super excited because I get to see someone dear and special to me at the end of the week!
[url=#play]This American Life[/url] did an episode on toast!
Here's the obligatory new guy post.

I've really enjoyed reading so far and have a few posts waiting in the approval queue. I hope you enjoy reading them half as much as I've enjoy reading y'alls.

learned about this site from a good friend, who told me it's fun and the people are very friendly.


That seems very familiar.
My favorite teacher taught me for four years. Two for Chemistry and two for physics. He was very interesting and really taught you to think as opposed to memorize. He taught us that there was nothing important about a single data point.

My least favorite really didn't like me. She got mad at me for writing my computer programs too advanced and separated me for talking.. in a senior level calculus class. That hadn't happened since I was in elementary school.
