Anyone around?

I live in BC, Canada. It's awesome pretty much haha. Though boring sometimes. I am close to Vancouver, though, so can't complain. Great weather right now!!

What about you?

Aww I would LOVE to visit Canada.... I've heard so many great things about it and it looks pretty too.

I live on an island in between Ireland and the UK called the Isle of Man <

---

dumb name, right? lol. It's a beautiful place though and a great place to raise children

Do you work? (Anyone feel free to answer these questions haha)

Tomorrow, I am having a salad with fake turkey on it, and grilled veggies. SUPER stoked.

Oooh I've heard of the Isle of Man I think. I wanna go to Europe so badly! I am not working right now, I actually just got back from teaching English abroad in China, so still looking for work here.

EdTheGinge

Isle of Man, well better name than Isle of White, Jersey or Guernsey right ?

I have a job, but not sure that I work lol - you ? I'm butting in again, mwahahaha

BamsieEkhaya

I'll be back in 20

karmahunger

Butt in all you want! The more the merrier.

Dying2Live84

Feel free Ed, haha. I work in a bank - most.boring.job.EVER and I am being laid off...... 8 years for sweet FA, pfft lol.

I'm glad the name of where I live doesn't actually reflect on the place..... that would be terrible ha.

karma, that is ace! How come you came back?

I am up snooping around here, trying to distract myself from wanting to snack. I am in Alaska so I still have 45 min until midnight. I work for a University here. I just left a VERY stressful job a few months ago and as a result, I think that my weight lose is a lot easier than it was (just the stress relief has helped). My biggest challenge is finding time to work out (food is do-able). However, I just found a thread here about the 30 Day Shred videos and I am inspired. I also live with a super amazing chef/baker husband (and he is all muscles...Grump!).

Hello...hope u don't mind me butting in I'm at work 4 more hours to go!!

EdTheGinge

It's ok Karma, I will I wasn't after permission haha.

Well Minx I did a year in banking, had to run the cashiers = dull (no1 or whatever it's called). I traded that in for an even more exciting job .... accountant

o0o0o china

jasonr1009

i think i would wanna be the adventurer. i do alot of travel already

karmahunger

I came back because the school I was working at was very unprofessional, and I couldn't deal with it any more.

I think working in a bank could be fun! You get to wear nice clothes and meet millionaires!

I've always to go to Alaska See penguins. Ha jk jk.
It's funny because I'm close to Alaska, I just never do anything fun.

EdTheGinge

Somebody say something random, my mind has gone blank (not for the 1st time)

brevislux

Adventuring seems nice, but I'd never want to live my life with no one to love... So I chose love.

jasonr1009

I lived in seattle for a few years. When i went to a bar, supposedly if a girl says "oh im from alaska" that means they arent interested in you. Wonder how true that is

Dying2Live84

ggmama - stress is always good for weight loss what job were you doing?

brandy - welcome, I too am in work only 6 and a half hours to go haha.

Ed - accountant ey! I could deal with the boredom raking in the monies you guys do ha.

karma - see I couldn't leave knowing things weren't being done properly, I would want to change everything lol.

See, now I feel like a bore! I love me some adventure too but the thought of missing out on love? nu-uh!

I lived on a sailboat, working in Sitka, Vancouver, and Seattle for 10 years. No wonder I could not get a date in Seattle (ha ha).

that and u never met me

ggmama - stress is always good for weight loss what job were you doing?

Actually, getting rid of the stress (getting my cortizol levels back to normal) has been good for weight lose. I do not loose weight with stress until someone dies -- serious scary stress.

I was running a small nonprofit and I grew it to the point that we needed more staff but my board members were reluctant to add more people.

karmahunger

Ahahah Minx, let our minds wander much :P

Sorry I vanished, was smoking.

The closest to Sitka I've been is the store with the same name, which also has a hipster cafe. Weird.

Something random: 10 people are raped by dolphins a year. Some people die because of it.

Haha bet that was painful, I did a similar thing but with Deep Heat

brandyss

So what do u like to do for fun?

ggsmamma

I have traveled a ton (crewed on boats all over the world, lived in Nepal for a year, traveled all over India, Central America, South America, Europe) -- I am happy with my family and "boring life" now so I choose the castle with my true love. I would, however, like to show my daughter Nepal someday and take her on a long sailing trip.

karmahunger

I sense flirting going on! :O

I want to go to India SO badly!!!! I plan on traveling all around Asia next year. My mum teaches in Beijing.

I actually knew that, something about the male getting jealous if you touch a female dolphin and dragging the person to the bottom of the ocean or something.

karmahunger

@Ed: that and because Dolphins are pervy ****ers.
They kill people because their male bits move left and right and you know...bad way to die.

I know far too much about dolphin rape.

EdTheGinge

Exactly they play the cute and innocent card but really deep down they're malicious/cold and brutal = Evil dolphins and yes quite concerning how much you know about this, put you on mastermind and this could be your specialist subject lol

ggsmamma

So what do u like to do for fun?

I just got out of a stressful job and as a result, I did not have but a handful of days off during the last 5 years. I think that my brain is kinda messed up and I do not even know what I want to do now that I have a little time. I used to love to sail, hike and do yoga. So I am trying to hike and do yoga (I sold my awesome boat for a down payment on a house). You?

Dying2Live84

WTF? This has confirmed why I have a phobia about swimming with them! I knew I was right hahaha.

Ed - yes, it hurt like he*l! lol.

Brandy - I explore my island for fun. It sounds crazy but there are still so many places I have never been/seen! I also write songs, just for myself

xx

karmahunger

Lol Minx. Just swim near lady dolphins.

@Ed, maybe I am a mastermind. Doubtful, though.

So how long has everyone been on this site? How much have you lost?
