is there anything you won't eat or drink because of something that happened? i mean, for me, i can't eat fried rice anymore even though i used to love it. i had this weird dream about these pill shaped things on my arm that really freaked me out (don't know how to explain it to make sense) and the next day i was eating fried rice and as i looked at it i realized it looked like those pill things in the dream.

so i'm not talking about something you can't eat or drink cause you're allergic or just don't like it. any other reason.

How long did it take you to get over your last relationship?

How did you know you were *over it*?

Who initiated the breakup?

If you feel comfortable sharing, why did you break up?





Is it possible to help a friend who seemingly refuses to get over a breakup?

If you had to walk home at night, by yourself, which option would you choose?
a) A 20 minute walk, that includes going through a foresty type area for about 100 metres and mostly short cuts.
b) A 25 minute walk, that takes you onto the main street where there are street lamps and cars going by.


Question is inspired by my boyfriend being worried about me going through a bit of forest when going to and returning from my night class.
I'm going to take the longer, safer route.

Lately I've been addicted to making playlists in iTunes. Questions:

1. Do you share the same addiction?

2. Do you think up clever names for your playlists? These are mine, and they mostly make sense only to me, but try to guess what they are:
- This playlist is dedicated to Terri Schiavo
- Luck be a lady
- Rock on emo kids
- Too hot to trot

3. How do you choose to separate yoour music into these lists? By genre, mood, type of makeup the artists wear?

4. Have you made the Soundtrack for your Life? I'm not done with mine, but feel free to post yours in a comment

[music |Sufjan Stevens - The Man of Metropolis Steals O]

I recently lost eight pounds in a span of six days. I'm pretty chubby, but suddenly I lost all of my appetite. I don't know why. The thought of eating anything repulses me. I used to have a very healthy appetite until I returned to school for winter break. Now... one day I only had two pieces of toast, a cup of soy bean milk, and I tried super hard to end that day's meal with a cookie just because I barely ate anything, and it was so challenging. I felt like throwing up every second I chewed on the cookie. I can down some liquids as long as they're not carbonated. What's happening to me? Why am I all of a sudden not hungry? What's causing this? How can I stop feeling repulsed by food? I don't think it's some deep buried image problem. And now I'm so tired all the time and feel so faint, coz I guess I'm not getting enough to eat. I'm taking vitamins just in case.

Ipod shuffle question [Jan. 9th, 2006|09:20 am]
The Question Club

thequestionclub
[msmcfeeley]
In the last few months my shuffle, even when fully charged, pauses during playback of certain songs. I hit the play button again, and it will continue.. then it will usually pause again. If I skip to the next song it will then be fine. Sometimes it won't do it for days.. sometimes it does it a few times in one day. I have tried re-loading it, thinking that somehow the song didn't load right initially, but that doesn't seem to make a difference. Does anyone else have this problem?

note: oddly it seems to pause during most Nelly songs. LOL but not exclusively Nelly. hehe

My girl just got an IPOD and I'm trying to set it up. However, I already have an IPOD and have the I-Tunes program installed on the computer. But when I plug in her IPOD, it isn't registering on the I-Tunes program that was installed with my IPOD. Does this mean that I have to install the program again using the CD that came with her IPOD? Do I have to create a whole new library in order for hers to work? Is there a way that we can use the one library for both IPODS?

Thanks in advance.

Opinions...

I have 18 credits for this semester however, Im taking a voice and diction class that I dont really think I love. and I dont need it at all. So, Im probably going to drop it. so should I stay with a 15 credit load (which is perfectly fine) or maybe take an Intro to film class which is at 12pm MWF (without it I would be done @ 11) and then there's video watching monday and thursdays at 7pm (maybe everyother week)

A big part of all of these decisions are the people in the class. they are both theater classes, and even as a former actress I find myself fairly annoyed by the thespians on our campus, thus avoiding those classes. However, I have a friend or two in Voice and Diction but hate the class itself along with the students, and one of my friends may or may not be in this film class. I realize I so shouldnt base my college classes on what my friends are in but, this is really just extra credits for me...nothing important.

Photo Archiving -- Scanner vs Camera [Jan. 9th, 2006|05:49 pm]
The Question Club

[cdozo]
I want to make archival quality digital copies of my old family photographs.

Would it be better for me to buy a high quality digital camera and photograph them, or should I buy a scanner and scan them in?

I have access to some analog photographic equipment including a tripod and photographer's lights with light diffusing umbrellas.

If photographing is best, what specific camera do you recommend? Are there any special camera functions that would be useful.

If a scanner is best, what specific scanner do you recommend and what features should it have?

Thank you in advance.

OK, I'm not really going to pull THAT old question out. Mine is one I thought of years ago to counter the previously mentioned query. I've had to tweak it and add sub-questions as time goes by, answer as many as you'd like.

If you could (to steal from The Newlywed Game) make whoopee with any cartoon character, who would it be? How about marry?

 

 Sometimes I noted a pattern if I asked the question of a whole bunch of people at once, eg. one would say "Princess Jasmine" and then someone else would say "Cinderella" and so on... so I also broke the above questions into Disney and non-Disney.  Animals that have been anthromorphized (like Donald Duck or Yogi Bear, but not like Garfield, as he's more cat than human) are OK, it doesn't make you a sicko or anything.  I promise.

Car Insurance [Jan. 9th, 2006|08:14 pm]
The Question Club

thequestionclub
[carllyy]
I was involved in a car accident on Dec 26/05. I was a passenger in my boyfriends car. I was taken to the hospital by ambulance and diagnosed with whiplash.

At this point I'm still in a whole lot of constant pain and my movement is severely restricted. I saw my doctor today and I now have to get physiotherapy for at least a couple months.

My question is about insurance. Mainly, whose insurance is responsible for paying my medical bills? My boyfriend was determined as not at fault for the accident since it happened as a result of a car cutting him off. He then lost control on the highway and we were hit by two more cars. As we've been told many times, we're lucky to be alive.

His insurance company has told him that I should be claiming through my insurance company because essentially they insure me, and I was injured. As I said before though, I wasn't driving, and it wasn't my car.

Is anyone familiar with this? Also, will my premiums go up if I submit this to my insurance company?

Sorry about another post so soon, but I have to ask.

Lets say it's been 3 or 4 nights you get no sleep. Not that you can't sleep, you just avoid it. You tell yourself that you'll stay up all night and compensate the next day but it never happens. The next day, it's 3pm and you can't take it anymore, so you take a 2hr nap.
You know that when you fall asleep, you'll have really hurtful dreams, so you decide to stay up distracting yourself with something.

... I've ran out of ideas of things to do when this happens. I usually just stay online and play video games, but I've been doing that for three days in a row (day and night) and my eyes hurt (besides, I'm gonna be blind soon, I should be taking extra care of my eyes).

I don't drive and I live in the middle of nowhere, so going out at night is not an option.

What would you do to "entertain" yourself in this situation?

Thanks in advance for ideas :)

I don't know anything about wines, but I was wondering if anyone can suggest to me a very light, sweet tasting wine that isn't too expensive?

1. I love reading, but sometimes the hardest part of the process for me is choosing which book to read and then committing to it long enough to become interested and keep reading. I just finished "Goodnight Nobody" by Jennifer Weiner. Out of the following choices (no suggestions, thanks), what should I read?
Naked by David Sedaris, Atonement by Ian McEwan, The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy, Freakonomics by Levitt and Dubner, The Penelopiad by Margaret Atwood, or Memoirs of a Geisha (or, I could finish The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath)

2. I have three notebooks; they are red, green and blue. This semester I am taking Anthropology and Psychology, so which notebook should I use for which class? (or, which color do you associate with these subjects?)

3. Do you wear slippers around the house? How about a bathrobe?

4. Do you prefer pens or pencils? Blue or black ink? Do you have a favorite kind of writing utensil?

5. What kind of bedding is on your bed right now?

I am saving up to furnish a nice quality apartment.

Lets say I am starting from scratch and will buy EVERYTHING!

How much money do you recommend I have saved up to make it happen.

I'm the kind of guy who does not mind spending a little too much if need be.

Ok, I just cooked an artichoke and ate it for the first time and i think i did something wrong but i dont know what.

I looked up the recipe online. I cut the ends of all of the leaves and I cut the stem off and then I steamed it for fifteen minutes (it said to steam for twenty, but it looked all brown and crap so i took it out) and covered with butter.

But, when I peeled off the leaves and tried to eat them, they were really tough and i could only bite the bottom part of them. Is this how it is supposed to be? There was so little "meat" on each leaf. it felt like I was barely eating anything. Also, I can't believe there are prickly spikes on the ends of the leaves.... what if you ate those?

And it looked so brown and wilty but it was actually so tough. I thought it looked over cooked and tasted undercooked. Im confused.

And are you supposed to eat the leaves in the very center that are white and pink? I was eating the bottoms but the tops still had spikes because they were inside and i didn't cut the spikes off. How far into the artichoke are you supposed to eat?

Also, do you like artichokes? It doesnt seem like they taste like much, even with butter and garlic. I just don't get it. They are so difficult to eat for so little food. Why do people eat them?

So, to summarize my question, what is a well cooked artichoke supposed to be like? How do you cook it that way?

Does swallowing toothpaste make a person throw up?
(My friend hiccuped while brushing her teeth and swallowed some on accident and has been puking ever since. I wonder if it's from the toothpaste, or unrelated)

Is there a place to find quotes from current (as in, currently in theaters) movies? I ask because there is a quote from the movie Casanova that I liked a lot, and it isn't on the IMDB page and I've tried Googling the parts of it I could remember and haven't found anything yet.

Who was the last person you instant messaged? I was talking to a kid I knew from elementary/middle school.

Veg*s: Will you buy nonveg* people meat if you go out to eat with them? What about anything with animal products in it?

Nonveg*s: Would you be offended if a veg* person refused to buy you meat? What about if they refused to buy you something with any animal product in it?

many years ago (6, i believe) timaeusdaspirge bought me this mug tankard as an xmas present. my romate's devil cat broke it today by knocking it off the kitchen table. it is was, quite literally, my solo drinking vessel, aside from a backup JD mug and a drinking horn. i have never seen another like it anywhere. there are pictures below the cut. it was a 22 oz/half litermug tankard . the metal is pewter and the glass is blue.

( you can't see the broken glass, or the manufacturer in these picsCollapse )

i need a new mug tankard . i don't want to get a straight pewter one, because they flavor drinks slightly IMO. so, what i am looking for is something of heavy glass or pewter/glass that i can use to replace my fallen warror. can anyone help me find this mug to replace it, or a comprable replacement?

fuckin cats.

AOL Instant Messenger keeps flashing this icon at me in my taskbar:



What does this mean? It just started doing this randomly... I have no idea what it's trying to tell me to do.
