Yeah, it's not exactly lethal, but it certainly made me take the itchyness a lil more seriously. And you have a handbook? and whims needs a copy of this? Am I really so distrusted with my own well being?

As for the laughing thing, I'm one for rather dry sarcastic and often times dark humour. But that doesn't mean I don't appreciate a good (terrible) pun or video of someone falling in a puddle or something. And I've got to agree that the trying not to laugh moments are great. Once you no longer have to stifle it and can escape and let it all explode with your fellow laugh-holder-in-ers then its good times.

Freelancertex Its a personal laptop PC. the cheapest MAC laptops are around the $1200 mark...waaaaay out of my financial zone. Most of my meagre savings are earmarked for my 5 week stay in a teeny rural country town called Coonabarabran somewhere in north eastern NSW Australia. where I will be doing my final adult speech pathology placement in April.I have to cover all accomodation and travel costs. It sucks but thems the breaks when you go back to full time study. I'll get a MAC when I'm a wealthy speechie.

the trying not to laugh at inappropriate times is often difficult The people I work with at afterschool care are lovely, but some of them are inclined to employ unecessary empowerment tactics with the older kids. it's sometimes really hard to keep a straight face when the kids themselves are trying not to laugh. the other day the program coordinator and I had to go outside so her number two couldn't see us laughing at her fumbling attempts to assert herself with the older kids re something nonsensical and harmless they'd done. although her actions were uncalled for we didn't want to undermine her in front of the kids. A few minutes later some of the year 6 kids that were not involved but had been observing came outside to crack up. there was a silent moment when they realised we were out there. they looked at us, we looked at them and we all burst out laughing. Luckily I wasn't the one who had to talk to the staff member later about what she'd done. we felt kind of bad, but we have all tried to help her understand the best way to deal with older kids and she just won't listen.

I watched. I liked Marshal having to go to the hospital. I liked the entire toothbrush thing. I liked when Ted and Barney did the pitcher & catcher thing going through their reads. The imaginary sports caster was awesome too. I loved when he kicked the chair over.

Oh yeah...though I think the toothbrush thing is a continuity error. I actually think we've seen Mashal and Lily with their own toothbrushes.

Parts of that movie (the ending with the hotel and the freeway, etc) were filmed in my hometown. :D I was watching it and was like "wait a sec...that's the 101 and the Hilton. Always fun to see places you know intimately in the movies


As for what I find funny? Sarcasm, dry humor, wit. Some physical comedy/slapstick stuff makes me laugh (I LOVE the movie "Just Friends"...I think's it's so freaking funny...and I know a lot of people hate it), but I'm particular about it.

I'm currently lmao watching the Colbert Report. Good lord is the man funny. The recent bit on learning to speed skate had the tears streaming...and I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.

Boris: I'd recommend a Lenovo as opposed to a compaq or an HP. If you go to the Lenovo outlet online you can get a nice laptop for not that much. I got a refurbished (refurbished doesn't necessarily mean fixed, they apply the 'refurbished' term meaning the item was returned to factory opened or unopened, and they checked it out to make sure everything works before they redistribute it) G530 for $376, put windows 7 on it (came with vista) and it works GREAT. most of their laptops average between 400-600. When in doubt go Lenovo, but I hope your new laptop works well for you. computer trouble always sucks.

Good luck on eventually getting the Mac!

LOL Navy honey you do an awesome job taking care of yourself( though I wish you'd sleep more and eat more veg), but as Whims is hosting you and wants to be a good host she wanted to know what sorts of things to feed you and such so I made her a little handbook with some recipes that avoid all teh foods you don't like:)

Boris.. oh I love it when the adults are doing "I can relate" crap. 90% of the time it's so laughable the kids are doing a good job just to keep from falling about laughing.

Oh happy day... Johnny is now sleeping in the crib for 4 hours. I actually went to bed and got almost 4 hours of sleep.YAY
