love your icon, carlee -- am fond of him as well!! :-)
6:53 am

At least it's not boobies. That is starting to bug me more than ti4.
6:53 am
Trifioso
grump. I can tell you from personal experience with 3 teens that "emos" is completely and totally a word
6:53 am
carleekat
i had him up for the fav muppet icon day... havent changed
6:53 am

tatas bugs me
6:53 am
Uneaixoise
ew, me too
6:54 am
MollyL
<---Not a fan of tatas either.
6:54 am
carleekat
there are these "breast cancer awareness bracelets here.. i luv boobies and all the $ goes to breast cancer support ( wigs, makeup self esteem stuffs for women suffering)
6:54 am
Trifioso
LOL Molly! One of the sn kids I tutor was ALL giggles yesterday, as his parents might be taking the family to the Dominican Republic for Feb vacation, and apparently his dad told him the ladies don't wear tops on the beaches there, and he must have said "boobies! boobies! there's gonna be boobies!" 1000 times in two hours
6:55 am
Uneaixoise
i've seen those, carlee . . . think I heard that students who wore them were sent home to change clothes . . .
6:55 am
carleekat
the kids are loving these bracelets....
6:55 am
MollyL
Seriously? The bracelets say that? I find that in poor taste.
6:55 am
carleekat
yeap...they were
6:56 am
carleekat
its a fad....and it is "offensive to parents" so the kids love them
6:56 am
Uneaixoise
of course! LOL
6:57 am
carleekat
just like elvis and the beatles were offensive to parents back in the day
6:57 am
Uneaixoise
and my micro mini was offensive to my dad! LOL
6:57 am
Kaplan the Magne
Thanks for the mammaries.
6:57 am
Uneaixoise
hey, kap :-)
6:57 am
Trifioso
I actually don't mind the bracelets. They get young girls talking about breast cancer, and boys might laugh at the bracelets, but then they ask about why someone is wearing it....
6:58 am
Kaplan the Magne
hey. I have to get ready for work. Long day ahead. Would love to stay and babble.
6:58 am
MollyL
I think there is a huge difference between musical taste being offensive and breasts being referred to as boobies on a breast cancer awareness bracelet. I'll take my lone opinion and trot off now.
6:58 am
Trifioso
we would love you to stay too!
6:58 am

sort of, peri. I got the "we love you but we can't keep you full time" speech, so now I am on some sort of part-time at will status. I think they would rather I quit, but they can't fire me, so they are just making it hardly worth my time to be there

I felt like such a mo 4/6 as I was babbling, I finally gave up after finding 181 words in the grid & om 4/5ting the rest of the words.Here's a story of clues to help you find so 4/5 words. This story pe8/45 to my husband's hatred of Babble.Hubby has tried to in6/18 that I quit babbling But I am not op 4/5 to that idea. My response to hubby was "no4/5, I will never quit babbling so you can ki 4/8 my fat ass!"Husband believes my Babble addiction is not no4/5al. He believes that the ma 4/5 reason I babble is to pick up guys in the chog. He is afraid that I am going to become sm4/5ten with another babbler&leave him.I told him that was the ma5/12 insane idea. Husband is a mo 5/14 and mo4/6 around as I babble because I'm not paying attention to him. Hubby really gets into a sn 4/4 when I babble.Husband has sw5/18 to give up Farmville if I give up Babbling.However, I could never give up this game! I would mi4/5 babblers and the game too much. Hubby wants computer so I am going to pe 6/24 him to use it. If I do ot let him use it, he will start yelling at me in a really nasty to4/4.Now I am going to go tend to my kitten who is me 4/9ing for attention. Then I am going to watch the mi 4/5-series "Rich Man Po4/5 Man" in the bedro 4/5. I hope that you've obta4/4ed so 4/5 mo 4/5 words with this story. Goodnight to my fellow babblers.
