I'm in Syracuse for two days. I went to Delmonico's and ate enough food for at least 2 people. I fear it will never digest. But it was soooooo worth it.0

No, I've never done that, but I know some people do. Does it help you figure out what's going on in your life?FluffySandwich wrote: »Haha, thanks!! I really hope so. On the topic of dreams, does anyone else keep a dream diary? For some odd reason I have always been fascinated with dreams and love them. I don't write them down every day (I definitely don't remember them every day), but I have a BUNCH of files and sometimes like to look back on them.
Most of my dreams are pretty boring, except when I have vertigo dreams, which are actually more like nightmares (focus on my fear of heights).

Thank you all who have explained this lunch policy. It makes me wonder what would've happened if that was enforced in my elementary school because from 1st - 3rd grade I suffered extreme anxiety which led to stomach issues and the only thing I could keep down for lunch for three years was a single chocolate pudding. That was it. In 4th & 5th grade I managed 1 plain tuna sandwich. (and I'm still lagging behind on this thread; been super busy at work)
I can see the need for a policy like this though.....I remember when my son was in the first grade, I was on a field trip and one of the little girls in my group was asking to eat lunch as soon as we got there at 9am. I asked her what she had for breakfast and she said she never had any breakfast. When I opened her lunch bag, there was a giant bag of skittles and a can of soda. That was it. I threw it out, gave her a granola bar and we bought her lunch (at least a slice of pizza or whatever was better then what she had!)0 -

So, is it Wally-world? Just wondering since I see people filling out apps on those little kiosks at the store.
I wanted to ask this too.....I worked at a Wal-Mart for several years and had three interviews to get that job......So, is it Wal-Mart?? (I know this might have already been answered cuz I am several pages behind still.....but had to ask just in case).0 -
Oh man, me too. I've wanted to write books based on them as well... and then I had a creative writing teacher who said "No one has ever written a good book based on a dream." I'm sure that can't be true!rungirl1973 wrote: »
I haven't for a while. I've had dreams that were movie-worthy. I used to write them down all the time with a plan to write books based on some of the plots. One day I'll get to that...
Doesn't really help me figure out anything. A few weeks back, though, I had an awful dream about being raped. I went to write it down, and noticed I had written a dream on the same date a year prior. I checked it out and found out it was also about rape. And several more as well. I have never been raped, but who knows... maybe it's a huge fear in my subconscious or something.No, I've never done that, but I know some people do.

Not to ruin the vibe or anything, but my husband texted me a little while ago and told me my step-daughter had a miscarriage. I am really sad for her and especially sad for my husband. He was so looking forward to becoming a grandpa. I am a little sad too as I had just started warming up to the idea of being MoNana or GrandMo.
Oh, so sorry to hear this!!0 -

That would be really awesome! A section of beautiful chess boards would be nice.0 -
My secret is that there is a little house for sale that I am putting an offer on tonight and I am really hoping they'll accept. I'm so so so so so excited about it but I'm not telling anyone IRL (besides my family) because I'm afraid I'll jinx it. It's perfect for me (and my dog
)
I've lived with my brother for 8 years and while we still get along the thought of having a space that is 100% mine is... well, to be honest I can't even think of the right word for it.
Good luck!!0 -

The Twilight books were based on dreams!! Good literature? Perhaps not. But, I'd gladly settle for the fortune from that franchise.
I have had some really great dreams, where I'm not even in them, it's like I'm watching a story take place from afar. I'm not giving away any more details, as this will be my fortune to earn. Lol0 -
I am powerless over salt and vinegar chips. I mindlessly ate a bunch just now. They are so good.0

Exactly the book series I was thinking of. Even if her writing isn't good, she definitely brought in some awesome cash! And same here, I love those. Problem is they aren't always as sensical as I would like...rungirl1973 wrote: »

When I was younger, if I started laughing really hard, my head would turn to the right, and I would laugh so hard that my whole body would be moving up and down, but no sound at all would come out. I had no control over this at all. And my head ALWAYS turned as far to the right as it could. My friends called it the "No look laugh", and everyone thought it was hilarious. I have not had it happen in over a decade or more, I have no idea why it happened, or why it stopped.0

My daughter was looking over my shoulder the other day as my best friend (English teacher) and I were messaging on Facebook. She couldn't believe that we used correct spelling, proper grammar and no text-speak. I told her that's how it was in the olden days.
I HATE text speak....is it seriously that much more difficult or time consuming to type 'you' instead of 'u'??
I always text properly and cannot stand when someone text me back a series of stupid single letters and numbers! HUGE pet peeve!0 -

Most of the PK I know were very bad. Kudos to you!
I admit that I wasn't sure what PK meant. I thought it meant phenylketonuric, but couldn't figure out the relevance.
I have no idea what it means, I even tried to look it up....what does PK mean?!?!?!0 -

My son used to make up words when he was little, for things that he didn't have vocabulary for. The only one that stuck around was 'fungly', which meant that thing that salt & vinegar chips do to your mouth. We still say it.Italian_Buju wrote: »

Still... with it attesting to an aspect of taste (and interestingly so

I think my sleeping habits are very poor. Last night I know I woke up about 15 or so times trying to get out of bed to finish "work" that didn't exist.
Sometimes, I'll wake up and while still half-asleep, I'll try to solve problems from my dreams. Like if I'm dreaming about my car breaking down, I won't be able to get totally back to sleep until I figure out where my AAA card is, how I'm going to call for a tow truck, how I'm going to get wherever I'm going (in my dream), etc. It takes me a while to realize, "Um, you're in bed and your car is fine. Go back to sleep."
And I always wish I'd written down some of my dreams. I almost always remember them in the morning, at least for a little while, and some of them are so colorful and vivid, it's amazing. 0 -
Same here. The worst for me is when I dream about work or school. I get out of bed trying to find where I put my things, going through my drawers or asking an imaginary co-worker if they need help with something (usually I'm asking the TVoverlook237 wrote: »

). My boyfriend gets really annoyed sometimes.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm tryna find the.... the... the... uh. Oh, wait... I was dreaming. Sorry.''
Then the cycle continues! I just remembered that my dad used to do the same thing. One time he was calling for me from his bed, and I ran in and asked him what he was yelling about. He said "The man with the red scarf. Did he leave???'' He kept asking me this and I had to tell him that the man with the red scarf didn't exist, and he eventually said ''Must have been dreaming...'' Like father like daughter, I guess :P

Lol! I haven't been in school for 14 years, and I still dream about missing tests, being late, having a paper/project due that I haven't started. A couple months ago, I woke up at around 3 a.m., certain that I was going to be late to class, so I got dressed and went to the bathroom to brush my teeth. My brother woke up and was like, "Where are you going?"
"I've got to get to class."
"It's 3 a.m. and you're 35. Go back to sleep, idiot."

I never did it past the age of 12, even though I've struggled with a lot of anxiety and depression through the years. Surprisingly, even with some pretty bad body image issues and binge eating, I've never purged.
I refuse to throw up now, unless I am horribly ill. I had a very nauseous pregnancy, but only threw up twice, I think just through sheer willpower. I just hate that helpless feeling.
I wish I had that kind of will power. I get bad migraines once in a while and if I don't catch it early enough to sleep it off, I get physically sick and the convulsions result in it coming out both ends. I can't stop it. I am grateful I have a hubby that doesn't mind getting his hands dirty if I barely make it or if my glasses happen to be off and I can't see where I'm going :sick:

Sigh, I have been out of this site for 2 days, I am afraid of how much I have to catch up on but... for this... I was always super square and introverted and way too serious. I wish to this day I could be more wild and fun. But I can't even last beyond a few drinks and its like...sorry gotta go to bed! Plus I don't get wild and crazy when I drink, I just want to talk. And I don't like crowds, parties or being up late... I get self conscious, withdraw into myself and tired. I am best with 1 or 2 friends at dinner or something, then I have a ton of fun. But I do envy people who are partiers. Just not in my nature I guess.
I am like this now. I value my sleep way too much. My dad is an avid pot smoker and I was around it all the time growing up so it wasn't a taboo. I didn't try it until 16 or 17. when I was about 18/19 I smoked pot socially. I remember one night we smoked so much and had the ultimate binge/munchies. Between 4 people we polished off 2 big bags of chips, a tray of Chocolate chip cookies, the store bought powdered donuts, pepperoni, and a banana cream pie. I haven't touched pot since I met my husband when I was 22. I drink socially now but I can take or leave alcohol. Despite my dad also being a 2 pack a day smoker since I was an infant, I have never tried it.

Confession: back when a certain candidate announced his run for presidency this year, there were media crews all over my university campus. I was shaking mad at how many faux "journalists" were making stories out of nothing and harassing students. My roommate even had to talk me down from telling off a certain Buzzfeed "writer" whose story contained absolutely false information... I'm a journalism major. I honestly fear for what the media circus will look like by the time I graduate.0

One time I had a dream when I was in junior high about making a hotdog omelette. the next morning I proceed to make one and my dad asked what I was doing. I told him I was making a hotdog omelette. Apparently he made the same thing at 1:30 in the morning when he got home from work.
I still dream about working as a cashier from my days at Superstore. They are always the same. I decide to go back there to earn extra money and then I get a huge line-up because I can't remember my sign in code. It has been over 10 years since I worked there.
