Red Cat Jenny Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 Sterling me goode Captain...head to yon bookstore and find a good bloodthirsty, stormy sea sailing, adventure ta read.. Sommat has one of those pictures on the cover of a ship battling stormy waves and such.. Get lost in it and a bottle of Port and take the phone off the hook! Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.... Her reputation was her livelihood. I'm a pirate, love. By nature and by choice! My inner voice sometimes has an accent! My wont?

Hester Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 Like I might be coming down with a cold. Bugger that! I've got a big dance weekend next week! So, bring on the Cold F/X, the vitamin C, and the chicken soup. I intend to whip this virus before it takes hold.
BriarRose Kildare Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 Aww Hester. I hope you kick the cold soon. Try taking ,if you can, some sea salt baths. That will help pull out the virus. And put some vicks on the bottom of your feet and then put some white socks on and go to bed. It does help. Hope you feel better. And Good Luck with your dance event. Hugs to ya!!

Ransom Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 Great! I had a really good laugh this morning, provided by a fellow Pub writer and friend. Made my day!

I'll ask Mr. H. to pick up some sea salt and Vicks for me! In the meantime, we're out of orange juice, so I'm drinking virgin Strawberry Daiquiri mix. It's surprisingly good even without the rum!

LadyBarbossa Posted April 5, 2008 Posted April 5, 2008 I'm beginning to feel like that line from the Lion King: "Life's not fair, is it?" Nope. It's not. A couple more no so fair things popped up this evening in which... well, family related (as always). ::le sigh:: I REALLY need a break from life. And REALLY desperately trying not to let anything get to me or get me down. I swear mates... I swear I'm cursed. Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!"

LadyBarbossa Posted April 9, 2008 Posted April 9, 2008 :::Shakes finger at MerryD::: Shouldn't be doin' a thing, missy. Doctor's orders I'm sure. Well, m' spirits are still... ehh. Bloody well snowed again today. Had a bad day in general. Luckily didn't get into an accident, almost did when some young gal pulled right infront of me at some over the speed limit speed. I wanted to hit her after she didn't hit me. Or worse, could have knocked me off the road, slippery cause of the rain. Oh, CR is FILLED with idiots like these. They be EVERYWHERE. On top of that, just having a bad day as one of my bosses is easy to jump on me, nagging about duties when I'm doing them. Always interesting how people are quick to demeen ya and nag, even if they do it nicely, it's still demeening.... but never quick or easy to give you a compliment or appreciation. Not ONCE have I been employee of the week. But I've bent over backwards all too often for that damned place. ;::le sigh::: Always like this no matter where I go. Apparently whatever I do is never good enough. And worse of all... Hoping I can make it down to see my Grandma before she passes away. She's in the hospital and it doesn't look good. Pneumonia with the early stages of Heart Failure. :::Le sigh::: On top of all the other things that have been piling up that won't allow me to go to PyrateCon. Tax issues, home repair, car troubles, family issues, etc. Sorry if I sound like I'm complainin'. Trying not to. Just need to vent. Too much on my plate and chest at the moment that I almost have no desire to pirate any more. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed."

Capt. Sterling Posted April 9, 2008 Posted April 9, 2008 Feel great. Sewing getting done, catching up with a lot of friends and scheming...what else could one ask for?

Ransom Posted April 9, 2008 Posted April 9, 2008 Great! The sun is out. Sun good. Me like sun. Got to go into town and run errands, then may do some Spring shopping. That could mean....shoes!!!!!

Christine Posted April 11, 2008 Posted April 11, 2008 Ugh! Still dealing with the anxiety. It's no where near as bad as what it was before. I've been meditating, which helps keep it under control, but I still find it annoying. The symptoms are either slight dizziness or tension in my neck. *shakes head* Can't wait til it's all gone for good.
LadyBarbossa Posted April 11, 2008 Posted April 11, 2008 :::hugs for Christine::: I sympathize, m'dear. Aye, it's a tough thing to shake. Hang in there. Think wonderful piratey thoughts. Step dad goes into surgery today to replace his defibulator. He'd been with it for 2 years apparently with a dead battery. I nearly floor him the other night for that. So, after work (which I've been called in to work at the other location cause folks are leaving), I'll head down to check up on him. Sis and step-Sis will be there (they are rather paniced). Hopefully will go down this weekend to see my Grandma. She's still on the fence with her condition. On top of the normal usual stuff. Well, no tornadoes hit around CR last night. They were all south of here. Bummer. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
Red Bess Posted April 11, 2008 Posted April 11, 2008 Me - I feel itchy, sneezy, grumpy (and all those other dwarfs). Apparently, I am developing allergies. But I am Happy that it's Friday. *hugs Lady B and Christine* Hold fast, mates. I can sympathize, too. Ladies in Scarlet: Piratical Art and Accessories
Dorian Lasseter Posted April 11, 2008 Posted April 11, 2008 I feel repressed... I read things here and find the the whole world of being 'PC' is getting under my skin... again... Talking about events and reenactments where we can't do certain things because of the potential psychological impact it may have on the children. I remember an F&I reenactment I participated in that we weren't allowed to die during the battles because it was too violent! We're reenacting a bloody war!!! Yes, it'll be violent! if some of the lads had their way we'd do blood squibs! Can't set up the scaffold for a hanging because it might scar the kiddies minds... Maybe that's a good thing! Show folks that there is consequences to doing bad things! Back in the day, that's what parents did! Take the wee ones to see a hanging to show them what will happen if they do misdeeds. (and get caught ) Show the public reality!!! I feel better now... Truly, D.

The worst part about all this is tis usually just one arse in the upper levels saying all what we do is bad.... and from having seen it for years, the kids LOVE what we do, they know it is all fake, none of them have been impacted the wrong way... just the jerk in control of the National Park Service or some squeaky wheel in the anti gun community... time for the likes of us to stop being the silent majority.

Christine Posted April 11, 2008 Posted April 11, 2008 Hope everything goes well for your Step Dad Lady Barbossa. And Red Bess, aye, allergies suck! Hope that gets better for you. I made an appointment with my doctor for this evening. I feel as tho I'm going mad dealing with this. Even tho I've read how so many women have dealt with bad anxiety after stopping the pill, I still want to know what else I can do about it. The dizziness is driving me nuts! I try so hard to stay calm, but some days are harder than others. I don't like not having control of myself. I really don't want to take any medicine, the side effects will make things worse, I also don't want to get dependent on something else. I've seriously thought about acupuncture. Has anyone done that? Does it help? I really want to try a natural path. Synthetics are what got me in this mess. *sighs*
