Having said this, I would not have felt like I "fit in" today with all of these people so why go?
I think thats great that you used to volunteer at a homeless shelter! Awesome!
No, I don`t blame you for not wanting to interact with certain.."contagions" either. Unfortunetly, I don`t have a choice in my employment, but I don`t mind really. I figure its just part of my job.
I hope that you enjoyed your Thanksgiving!

Why must I spend this holiday with other people when I feel this way? I just want to be alone with my puppies and eat pizza. HELP! Thanks.
Dont worry.. your "friend" just saw this post and doesn't want you to come now... or ever. bye.

I may be a little late but the excuse of sudden onset of explosive diarrhea and you are on the fourth bathroom trip is usually good. I do not think they will ask you to elaborate on details. Then you can enjoy your pizza and puppies at home.

ahaha I told my parents six different lies today to get out of having to go to my grandparents' boring farm. I have homework and papers (I do, but I'm not gonna work on them), I have sinus pains (it went away), I have to work (my job is closed on Thanksgiving), and other lies...

"I just don't feel good right now." Which seems to be true.

Such drama as always and you think that posting a new thread on a "new" subject will afford you more CD "prime time" and thus somehow justify you?

With all due respect, and as much as you obviously resent those alleged "stalkers" who dare to read your previous threads and posts, you really do have some bloody nerve asking this question given all your previous posts on the subject.

Some of us DO read your previous posts and threads - something which we can easily do on this and any other forum.

Apropos another of your threads, I've no doubt you could drive someone to drink or, at best, wonder if they should have momentarily gone off the wagon.

There comes a point on either this relatively intelligent forum or any other relatively intelligent forum where a poster realizes that one can fool some of the people some of the time but not all of the people all of the time.

Some of us have grown up enough and have very few axes to grind but feel confident enough to give advice. You listen, fine! You don't listen, fine!

There might be others hovering out there who will listen and that's important. But they're coming in cold with no idea of the history.

Right now you seem to me to be a very worried and rather messed-up lady who's having a hard time disassociating herself from the maladjusted crowd around you.

Your choice. As long as you keep making lame excuses, nothing is going to go your way. It's up to you. Good luck.

STT, you are NOT a nice person and I won't spend more time in this thread than telling you so. You give everyone a hard time and just look in the mirror. And, btw, STT, do you honestly think in the real world people are tracking threads as if it really matters? Let CD be your life!
