    I guess I'll stop in and say hi. I'm Brittny. I'm from a small town in Illinois. I get asked a lot what my user name means because it just looks like a bunch of mumbo jumbo. hahaha It's a combination of my maiden last name and my married name. I have 3 boys and now 3 dogs. Just adopted a puppy yesterday. :)

    I know your small town!

    It's not a small town anymore.... How long has it been since you have been around here? And tell me about your dogs.. What kind are they

    I think she meant where I am currently living, is a small town. My oldest dog is a Bloodhound named Tilly, then there is Pepper, she is a beagle/chihuahua mix, and we just adopted a boxer mix puppy yesterday
    I get confused on who's answering what sometimes I had a boxer about 20 years ago and I had a yellow lab and I currently have a white English bulldog

    lol its cool! This will be my first boxer, who is quite possibly mixed with lab. I looked up what they call a boxador, and it looks just like my puppy. I love bull dogs that are adorable. Well, who am I kidding I am a sucker for all dogs. hahaha

    Well part of me is, it's only a small part of my personality but it's still there. No was never in the military.

    That's really funny because from what I have read most narcissistic people won't admit they are a narcissist.


    Even passive aggressive for that reason.

    Yep and they're never wrong either. It's everyone's fault, everyone is the problem.

    I've dumped a couple of woman on that note, hate passive-aggressive beahviour. It's not my job to fix anyone, if they cannot communicate in a sweet and loving way.But, rather resort to mind games and silent treatment.
    Gotta watch the manipulation in a relationship and keep it in check. Some girls are psycho!

    Ok well I guess I'll jump in here.... My name is Emma.... I grew up on the south side of Chicago... I've been married for 33 years. I have to grown and married children. I have lived in the south suburbs of Chicago for 23 years now. I'm trying to lose 50 pounds... And I'll be honest I hate to exercise.... I'm trying to get motivated by listening to other people's stories and hope to learn from a of you....

    Hello Emma! My dad was born and raised in Chicago. I grew up in Sauk Village. Terrible town now, but it was decent when I was a kid.


    Where is Salk Village about... I live in Frankfort...

    Its East of Frankfort. Just off of 394 and Sauk trail. Some surrounding town are like Chicago heights, steger, Lynwood, crete[/quote

    Sorry to budge in but I'm with you 100% it's probabaly the reason I'm not in a relationship. Most of the women I've been with we're pretty sh!tty towards me in the utmost subtle ways, then when I react I'm the one that looks like a dick. I'm a sucka though for some reason I keep letting the same women back into my life, even though she usually comes with her hands tied (got another man) I keep telling myself she's cheating with me cuz I'm special to her and she can't let me go when in reality me and the other dude are probably both getting the same ole line :/ sorry I had to vent.

    There's a bat outside my window right now. Just heard it do that weird hissing sound. It actually lives in the window's oldschool cover thingy that has no purpose besides looks.
    Yikes...creepy! Unless it turns into Batman. Then it's not so creepy.

    Sweet! Don't usually see bats just chilling! I went camping in this huge cave system up here one year and every where we went there were 100's of bats sleeping in groups hanging upside down from the ceiling.

    Is seeing bats "usual"? I think I've only ever saw one once...and I'm still not convinced it wasn't just a bird.

    There's been lots of animals in my yard lately. I guess we have a spider infestation too.... I'm ok with it though, because they dont fly and buzz around. They catch those punks and dispose of them for me lol. And the 3 bats in my backyard/window area catch the mosquitos. It's like I have an animal relationship with them. Whats it called, mutualistic? Symbitoic? Idk lol

    Good luck Emma! :)

    Thank you..like I said looking to find how everyone else's got their motivation and where a lazy person starts when it comes to exercise..calories I can count... Going to the gym yikes lol

    My motivation is usually me not liking myself in a way hahah. Like, I want to be better, I'm never satisfied with results. Kinda bad though, because if I have a bad day at the gym, i have a verrrry bad day hahahaha
    hey at least you at the gym... Points for that

    Hey everyone! I too travel a lot. Been in the military for some time. Seen a chunk of the world and made lots of friends everywhere. Currently in Ohio... Lame! Probably be here for the rest of my life unless 1: I win the lotto and can buy an island or more realistically 2: land me a nice paying job and relocate somewhere out west. Anyhow I'm on a 25 day streak. Trying to lose 50 pounds. I believe I can do it "this time". We'll see. By the way... I like this thread better than the game threads. Feel free to add me as a friend if you so choose.

    I think its usual to see em if you look for em. Up here if you look it the sky right before dusk you can see them darting around the sky.... They look like birds but they zig zag and they are fast as hell too! Your right I'd take bats over spiders any day! And anything that kills Mosquitos is cool in my book!

    If they kill skeeters, send em to Bama.

    That just sounded really redneck didn't it?
