And...both dogs knocked over my trash cash and ate almost everything in it last night. It was practically filled with spit filled kleenex. Now the lab keep throwing up mounds of kleenex mixed with other stuff, and my newfy keeps pooping out white kleenex in the backyard! How annoying. Wish they could pick up after themselves!

MyNewfy,

I hate it when that happens, too!

Have you tried using a small crochet hook to pick out the fuzzy stuff stuck in it? Or maybe try rubbing an old stiff-bristled toothbrush all over it and see if that helps <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Good luck!

Here's my whine;

I rented 4 Japanese horror flicks and having to watch the TV to read all the subtitles is cutting into my computer time! *winks*

I sure hope that everyone that's feeling crappy, feels better soon! *hugs*

Amazing. You have no idea how perfect this thread is for me today. I was feeling sorry for myself that I couldn't think of anyone to call and just whine to, and I open this up and here's my place! I have still not "recovered" from my last bout in the hospital. My chest feels tight and I'm still on 20mg Pred and I hate the anxiety I'm having. I don't feel particularly congested, not coughing up lots of stuff, so I'm making up all sorts of other dire things that could be wrong. Like, this is it, my last days on earth, or something.

My 16 year old son is being a screw up and not doing his schoolwork and looking at me like I don't know what I am talking about when I tell him that C's are not going to get him into college (he insists he wants to go). I hate when the kids ignore my sage advice! I'm overweight by about 20-30 pounds and we don't have any extra money for me to buy new clothes. I am the sole breadwinner in the family right now because my husband is recareering (he'll have his Bachelor of Science in Nursing in July) and I'm just tired of shouldering so much responsibililty.

And, as the only child in my family, I am also responsible for my father, who is in a nursing home, and who, whenever I go to see him, has to complain about the food. His complaint on Friday was that the pancakes they served him that morning were too big and it's just too much to eat and when I remind him that he can just eat as much as he wants and leave the rest he tells me that he just hates wasting food. And I'm just wishing that someone, anyone, would make ME pancakes for breakfast - any size!!!

Oh thank you for listening. I feel so much better just getting that all out of my system!!

OMG...wow....if you read my last post AFTER NewFy's last post, it sounds like I am trying to solve her "dog pooping kleenex" dilemma!

It reminded me of when my dog got into my roommate's bicycle grease and the dog pooped white poop all over the yard for 3 days.

*hums "memorieeessssss like the corners of our mindsssssss"*

There's this dishwasher at the restaurant where I work and he's really, REALLY sweet on me (about my age, he's 21, i'm 19). Anyways, he's from guatemala, barely speaks any english...I feel like i'll be crucified if i even try to be his friend. I mentioned to my parents that he wants me to teach him some english, which I said "sure, if you teach me some spanish" to, and my dad made some comment about him being a criminal, and illegal immigrant, or a "predator"...this may be true for all I know but i'm willing to give people the benefit of the doubt.

Not so much whining but venting. Some people are so ignorant. And i can't help but get those butterfly feelings when he talks to me. LOL

Who cares what your dad says??? If he's cute, teach him some English. Learn some Spanish. And maybe you can throw some sex ed in there too. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">

I know many would disagree-but this is a whining thread, not a debate thread after all.

My whine is I'm so sick of hearing about the fake- "port"- Dubai -problem.

I'm going to Dubai for vacation in May and a few of my ignorant relatives are now telling me it's not safe.

I'm sick of propaganda, I'm sick of fake problems, and I'm sick of politicians using things just to get attention or to get voted for.

OK! Now on that note, I'm gonna watch American Idol reruns. HAH! LOL

Thank you emily...i'm tending to lean your way.

Life (especially for us CFers) is all about having fun and taking advantage of great oppertunities, right? Like Christian going to Dubai.

To the last anon poster...

I know how you feel about your dad being the way he is. I won't call him a racist. Maybe he is just concerned about "his baby girl". Still...you should recommend that your father (and anyone else you come across) watch the movie <i>CRASH</i>. I also feel that movie should be required viewing in every high school in this nation.

I'm almost 40 and have taught my children that there are jerks (I use a harsher word but won't do that here) in every race and that there are also wonderful, loving people in every race. My father, on the other hand, is over 60 and he was raised very differently. I won't go into detail on what words come out of his mouth, it embarrasses me. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0">

I also need to mention the movie <i>Pay It Forward</i> . If you get a chance, please watch it, it might help you with your concerns about helping your co-worker learn some English. His teaching you Spanish, may come in very handy someday <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
