Open Question: Short extract from my story, advice needed? 10 points?

This is the end of my preface and the start of chapter one. (not the end of the chapter). If anyone could point out any mistakes, misspellings or grammar issues, please let me know. Any critiqueing is welcome :) Thank you I come to an intersection and while waiting for the light to turn green, I imagine what my life would be like if we had never moved. Picturing the serene hills of the countryside and the beautiful sunrise in the mornings, I want nothing more than to go back there, to my normal and happy life. The light changes and I move into the intersection. Suddenly, I hear a roaring engine and screeching tires. I look up and see a large truck swerving towards me, its headlights growing closer. It is too late and I scream. I brace myself for the pain from metal crashing against metal. But there is nothing. Just silence. Chapter 1 The morning sky is painted a serene portrait of pink melting into yellow and vivid red. As the sun rises from behind the mountains, light dances across the field of wheat and casts a golden glow that shimmers through the air. In the midst of the vast yellow sea stands a single tree on which I now sit. Gazing up at the sky, the moon is still visible in the soft glow of the sun. I smile to myself. The air is warm with a slight breeze that caresses my long brown hair. Above me, an apple hangs loosely to a branch and I pluck it off. Biting into it, memories of when I first discovered this spot of paradise escapes me. There seems to be something special about this place, something so simple and thought-provoking. I use this time to think. Every other hour of the day is filled with people who believe there’s no need to wonder when everything’s so perfect. What more could I want? With a sigh, I finish my apple and jump down off the low tree branch. It’s time to start the day. My mind wanders through the possibilities. I could sign up for a hike in the East Mountains, go for a walk through town, or maybe…my mind rejects the idea. The forest is off-limits to everyone. Its unmarked land could be dangerous. Besides, the sheer darkness of it isn’t the most welcoming sight. I shake the thought out of my head. Instead, I choose to go into town, though I doubt anyone will be up at this hour. It’s a short walk up north from the field and so I arrive before long. The vintage buildings loom overhead, blocking out the bit of morning light that’s trying to shine through. Street lamps still burn from being lit the night before and the black cobblestone road gleams in reflection. Stretching out in front of me is row upon row of diners, shops, theatres, and stands. Each painted a glorious red and gold color, almost as if to match the colors of the sunrise. No matter how many times I visit the city, it never ceases to amaze me with its timeless beauty.  more

Open Question: Guy trouble! Help???

I went to a party yesterday and this guy i known for years was keep staring at me.And, when he seen me he hugged me tight and it was a very warm hug and long it felt really good lol.He was like keep walking around the same places i was walking it was kinda creepy.And the other thing which was confusing to me was his brother sat down on a stool in front of me, (i dont mean exactly in front but a short distance where we can see each other upclose) and i was talking to people standing up and he looked me down and up and kept staring at me the whole time i was there.Last month i went with the guys with family to a restaurant and the guy sat next to me and didnt say a word but was joining in my conversations with people i talked to.Why are the acting like this? They never used to act like that when i knew them years ago.  more

Resolved Question: Should the front door be left open year round?

Hello. I am fairly certain of the answer to my question, but my dad never believes me. Therefore, I would like to show him the answers of everyone here. At the entrance to my house is the front door as well as a "screen door." Except for during winter, the screen door has a screen in it. In the winter, it has a glass panel in it. My dad likes to have the main front door open all year round. He refuses to believe that this makes the house colder in the winter and warmer in the summer than it should be. Surely, the uninsulated glass door lets the hot air escape from the house to the outside, making the house colder by keeping the door open. Even though there is a glass door, it doesn't keep the house from getting colder! And in the summer, even more surely, the hot air from the outside comes right through the screen door, meaning the house gets warmer since the door is open. We live by New York CIty if it matters. In the winter the house is almost always warmer than outside In the summer it of course is usually warmer outside than it is in the house. Please confirm/give good reasoning so my dad believes me and understands the "hot goes to cold" concept. Also, surely keeping the door open in the winter makes the heating bill higher, right?  more

Open Question: Can you tell me what you think of my story so far?

Ok, so I'm not done yet, but tell me what you think. Thank youu! Oh, and sorry it's so long:) My parents chatted in the kitchen as I sat in the living room letting the sun that shined through the windows burn my retinas while I stared at the black screen of the TV. I didn’t even care that I could be blind after this, actually I didn’t care about anything anymore. Nothing was right, nothing was like it was supposed to be, now that they took him out of my life. My mom and dad weren’t really chatting, more like talking in an angry tone. They went back and forth and back and forth, arguing about me, about them, about how the world is ruining me, and blah, blah, blah. “We have to lock the doors, and all the windows, but we have to make sure that she stays in our sight all day long except for school. She’s only got a week and a half left, it’s her senior year, we can’t let this ruin her last and final year in school.” I grunted quietly to myself. How can they say that? They knew how I felt and yet they talk about me like what I think is completely different then what I really think. Are all parents like that, or just mine? I got up from the warm, soft couch where I had been sitting every since I got home from the police station. I had had enough of my parents, they weren’t going to listen to me, not that they had before this happened. But of course when I tell them something I really mean, they don’t believe me. They don’t believe that I actually loved him, that I actually cared for someone besides my gay best friend who I had protected since kindergarten. No, I couldn’t care for anyone! That wasn’t me, it was an act. An act they think I’m still playing and let me tell you, I’m playing it well. They thought my only friend was Damien, he was the only one I would jump in front of a bullet to save. But this was different. They were right, that before I met him, that’s all I cared for, but I can make room for more. I went to go up the stairs and hide in the comfort of my own room where I spent endless hours lately. But, my dad caught me before I even touched the second step. “Um, Tara, can you come here for a second. Your mom and I wanna talk to you about something.” I rolled my eyes without him seeing and stepped away from the only things keeping me away from silence and safety. “If it’s about the same thing that you talk to me about every. single. time. Then I don’t really wanna hear it. Don’t bother!” I think my tone startled him, but I was pissed now. I hate hearing the same thing repeated to me over and over again. It’s just as pointless as running over a box of doughnuts with a Jeep.“No, it’s not about…we want to talk to you about your plans after high school. Well, you are welcome to stay with us for as long as you want, but we just want you to know that me and your mother have decided to move away.” They looked at me like I was supposed to be excited. I was the same, I felt the same as I did before and I kept the same frown on my face, showing no emotion to their ditch-this-town-when-we-can idea. “Um, to where do you plan on going?” I sounded like an angry mother after hearing her daughter is going to run away with her boyfriend who thinks he will start a band, you know? My mom and dad look at each other while smiles formed on their face. They looked like terrorists in a room full of weapons. They were exploding with excitement. At the same time they shot out, “Shortsville!” No muscles moved on my face. “What the hell’s a Shortsville?” Mom laughed her devil-turned-angel laugh. “Shortsville is a place honey! It’s in New York. A cute little town situated between Canandaigua and Manchester. I think.” Oh, that helped me know where it was! Now it was clear…not. I turned around to go up the stairs, but my mom grabbed me by my arm. “Wait! Where are you going? Aren’t you proud of us?” They wanted me to be proud of them? “Um…for what? You’re leaving a town just because something happened that you blew completely out of proportion! If you ask me, you guys are kind-of quitters! When the going gets rough, you get going! Why is that? You’re supposed to be a leader, but I know damn well, that I would never, ever, EVER, be you like you guys!!” On that good note, I turned around and ran up the stairs, leaving no time for any more stray arms to stop me. So I was mad. So I was furious. So what? I should be! They ruin my life, they take the one thing in my life that I actually wanted! Why wouldn’t I be mad?When I got to my room, I grabbed a back-pack and stuffed clothes in it. I decided that tonight would be the right night to catch up with the latest news from Damien. I climbed out my window and into the large tree that grew next to it and made my way down. Damien only lived a few streets over, I could be there in 10 minutes. I called Damien to make sure my surprise attack wouldn‘t scare him. “Hey, you home?” I heard voices in the background and some loud laughing. “No, Ter- wait, why? Are you running again? Loo Look, I told you, you’re 18 now. Your ‘rents can call the po-po on you and then you’ll be joining your friend- oh, um, sorry. Hun, you know where the key is. Wait in my room ‘til I get home. I think I’ll be there soon, this party can’t go all night,” I heard him call out, “Mom get off the table.” He came back on, “Ok, so maybe it can.” I laughed for the first time in a while, “Momma found her buddy alcohol didn’t she?” Damien sighed on the other end, “Yeah, unfortunately. Dad’s no where to be found so I guess I’m the designated driver tonight.” “Damien, you don’t have your license.” In fact, he had failed the test nineteen times in a row. Driving wasn’t his, how does he put it, it’s not his cup of tea. But whatever, he doesn’t even like tea. “Well, the only people who know that is you and the men in blue. If I keep the windows rolled up and locked and the doors are secure, I think they’ll be fine. I’m not sure if seatbelts can hold them. You know what they say, “chains couldn’t hold in Hercules.” I thought about that for a moment. “Who ever says that?” “Well, you got the whole house to yourself. Don’t eat all the food please. You know you can’t keep a body like mine with not eating.” “You know it. Ok, Dame, thank you. I owe you big time, you’re my best friend.” He chuckled, “You don’t have to tell me something I know is damn right. Love you.” I hung up the phone just in time. I rounded the corner to find a group of guys standing on the sidewalk, some leaning on the back of a truck. Now I would have thought this was scary before, but the even scarier part was, I knew most of them. As I got closer, the one guy that I hoped wouldn’t see me, did. Yay. Sorry it's so long:)  more

Open Question: what do you think of my story so far?

My eyes flicker open, and a slight smile spreads across my face. The warm sunlight lights up my face, and I lie basking in the heat. But suddenly, reality hits me. Where am I? What’s going on? I turn my head, and grass grazes gently across my cheek. I am lying in a huge field. There is a white picket fence around the field, keeping me inside. The grass is short, and flowers spring up between the blades. The aroma’s of freshly cut grass and flowers fill my nose. Summer. It’s a beautiful field, and I am here, alone. I smile stupidly, pure joy running through my veins, lifting me spirits, just like a drug. It feels good to just lie here, to forget everything. Everything feels simple. I have no problems, they have all floated away. There is nothing inside me, but happiness. I inhale again, but this time it is different. There is still the beautiful aroma of grass, of flowers, but there is something else. Something… sweet. I inhale desperately, trying to work out what it is. It is coming from my left. I turn, slowly, cautiously. And there it is. It has three layers; all the toppings you can think of. It starts with a chocolate sponge base, then a layer of chocolate butter icing. Next, another chocolate sponge, then strawberry jam and cream. Finally, there is another chocolate sponge, finished off with a thick serving of chocolate butter icing. “Have some.” A voice whispers from behind and I gasp. Slowly, I sit up and turn to see who spoke. Nobody is there. I turn back towards the cake, gulping. “Just have some, Charlotte.” I turn again, but still, nobody is there. “It’s OK, I’m not hungry today.” I reply, standing up to walk away from the cake. “Well, of course you are, Charlotte. Eat some cake.” The voice insists, and I go to argue, when another voice joins in. “Yes, have some!” Suddenly, another voice joins in; then another, and another, and another. “Have some!” They all shout, “Eat some!” “I can’t!” I scream, trying to run. But the white picket fence is closer then I think, and higher then I think. I can’t run any further, I can’t escape. “I don’t want cake!” Suddenly the voices stop, and the cake disappears. I collapse on the floor, sobbing. “You don’t want cake?” The voice asks sweetly. “Why didn’t you say? Now, open your eyes.” I slowly uncover my eyes, and feel sick. I am in heaven. No, I am in hell. Right in front of me is a giant cream pastry; creamy, sweet, greasy. The whipped cream is seeping out, and I can almost taste it in my mouth. I turn to my right, trying to run, but immediately run into trouble. A huge cheeseburger, and bowl of chips and three bags of crisps lie on the floor in front of me, blocking me in. To my right; cakes, pasta, sandwiches. “What’s going on?!” I scream. I don’t know what to do. I want to eat. But I can’t. My stomach is begging me, my legs are trying to pull me forward. But I can’t. My brain won’t let me. I can’t do this. “Why are you doing this to me? Let me go.” “Let you go?” The female voice laughs. “We can’t do that! We can’t let you go.” “Why?!” I shriek, and I hear a horrible cackle. “Because we need to make you fat. You won’t leave until you’re fat.” The word fat echoes around the empty, more and more voices joining in. Slowly, the food around me starts to get closer closer. “Let me go!” I scream, but the food is coming ever closer. I collapse on the floor, sobbing, the taste of calories lingering on my lips. “Let me go…” I muttered, shaking my head and regaining consciousness from my sleep. My back hurt; I was stiff all over. “Ow!” I groaned as I rolled over and something dug into my back. I looked around and realised I had woken up on the floor. I was still shaking from my horrible nightmare, and I ran my hands down my stomach. It didn’t seem too much bigger than it had been yesterday… it was only a dream. THIS IS THE ROUGH PLAN FOR WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN... Chapter 1 – dream. Fast. Reads old diary entries Chapter 2 – open with diary entry. Purges for the first time. Chapter 3 – open with diary entry. Friends/family get suspicious. Chapter 4 – discovers pro-ana forums Chapter 5 – purges regularly, starts working out more Chapter 6 – starts using laxatives and diet pills Chapter 7 – faints in school, mum takes her to the doctor Chapter 8 – turns to bulimia for about a month, to get her mum off her back Chapter 9 – returns to anorexia. Friends start to worry Chapter 10 – mum sends her to an eating disorder clinic and then the story will continue with her struggle in the recovery clinic. the back story is that she is a perfectionist, and doesn't feel as good as her sister, who is clever and perfect and beautiful, and going on to be a doctor. she does't feel smart enough. also, she is a bit "chubby" to start off with, and gets slightly teased. and finally, she has some personal troubles with death etc... tell me what you think? xxxxx  more

Resolved Question: Please answer my question? I care about him soo much?

Thank you so much for answering this question, and this is really serious, so please could you answer fully. thank you :) Okay so I go to school, and i am 15 years old. I know that you may think this is silly, but I think I am old enough to have these feelings. So at the start of this year, I was in a class with a boy. Our class was drama, and we didn't really talk much for a while. Then one day after school in town, he walked up to me and kissed my hand, and then walked away. After that we just clicked really, and got on really well whenever we would be in the same group for drama, and we would find each other really funny. Then one day a few months ago, we went on an after school trip to a theatre. I got on the bus, and he shouted out at me that he loved me in like a jokey way. I sat in front of him by a few seats, and he kept asking for me to go sit by him, but I didn't want to abandon my friends. Then when we got there, it just so happens that he is sat behind me. Then every time something scary was about to happen, he would pat my back and make me jump, and during the interval we had a long conversation about silly things really. On the way back we sat next to each other, and this is when I started to like him. I don't know what it was, I just felt a connection with him, like we were sat next to each other, but there were long periods of us just sat looking at each other. We swapped numbers at this point, and he kept saying- 'Ring me tonight, I want to hear your voice.', and he also told me allot about his dad passing away, and it was really intimate. Then we got off the bus, and we had a group photo. We hugged for ages, and then we walked back to the cars and I said 'I love you!" As we walked away, and then he said- "I actually love you more." I didn't ring him because it was late, and my whole family were in bed, but I knew that I really liked him. Then, for a few days after wards we didn't speak. One day we had drama, and he waited for me when he saw me. We were alone, and I said- "It feels like we haven't spoken in ages,", to which he replies- "Your just so pretty, whenever I look at you, and then look at me, I think there is no point because you are too good for me." I didn't really know how to take it, because I didn't really know what he was getting at. So I just kind of said "Don't be silly." and we carried on walking. But ever since then he has been acting really strange. Like when I walk into a room he seizes up, and acts really jittery. I was sat by him the other day, and he wouldn't stop fidgeting, which he never used to do. Then the other day, he like dive bombed my legs, and after that when we were doing a drama warm up, he like moved my friend out of the way, and shouted- "I'm having her!", and he like pushed my head down :S So now I'm faced with a dilemma. What does his behavior mean? What was he getting at when he said I was 'too good'? I'm also worried about him, because he gets drunk a lot, and one of my friends today was talking about him, and he made all of them cry by talking about his dad, and he was talking about being suicidal. I don't know whether it is love, but these are the strongest feelings I have ever had for someone and I simply don't know what to do. I feel like we can't talk because he acts so wierd now PLLLEEAASSEE help me? Thank youu xxxx  more

Resolved Question: Why does the grass in my garden look so dry and yellow?

Since the cold weather started to fade away I have noticed that the grass in my front and back garden looks like it would after a long hot and dry summer. The only green area is underneath my children's very large trampoline, which was up all year. It's not just my grass, it seems to be everyone elses gardens, the parks and school fields. I know it's not because of the recent warm spell, I think it has something to do with the long and very cold winter we had. Anyone know why and what I can do to make it look green again?  more

Resolved Question: does the beginning of my book sound good??!!?

okay im about to get this thing published and i need to know if its good enough and i was having a tough time with the beginning because my friend said it sounded boring, but i think its okay, if you like it i can put up more of the chapters latter Forget By: Sara Garcia Chapter 1 Life as we knew it …. Everything was dark, and silent. I was alone, all alone in the deep depths of the forever lost, just floating in the middle of nothing, or space. Where ever I am, it’s cold. The unbearable coldness made me suffer more than the empty loneliness did. What am I? Who am I? Was this supposed to be my hell? All of these questions that I couldn’t answer, that I would never get answered. Where was I supposed to get them? There was nothing. What was my purpose of myself being? I was never going to get out of this tunnel of darkness. I am never going to make it out of here. Being stuck, all alone, with nothing but me was frightening. I had nowhere to hide from the darkness, and nothing to hold on to. How did I even get here? Maybe no one could answer my question. Maybe no one could pull me out of the darkness and into the light. But maybe, just maybe I had to do it myself. That’s right, I need to be strong on my own and make something new out of this darkness. This strange thought of something in the darkness was coming. Just who was it? Or more like what was? It saw a small light it was floating in the darkness just like I had expected. I started to fallow it, but as soon as I got there it wasn’t any bigger than it had been when I first saw it. The little ball of light was glowing bright. Could I make something out of this little unknown object? I could. The little ball of light grew bigger. It stretched into a bigger ball of light. Just when I was thinking nothing could pull me out of the darkness, there it was. This time the light was right in front of me. All I had to do was step into it. Finally I let myself go; I could see how bright everything was. More little lights started to appear. Each one was a different color, and shape. They all flew across the darkness I was in, making the space not as dark. They were all spreading apart far away from each other, filling every dark spot. The main one that was right in front of me was the one I knew where I was meant to go. I let myself fall into it again. The one that I was in was made very special. In this one I put big rocks in it. The third rock would be called earth, and it would have life on it like me. I would make every living thing out of a part of my soul. Land appeared on the over sized rock. Then water appeared. Trees, animal, living organisms formed too. For 7 days I shaped and made life what it is. For those last 7 days I knew I wasn't going to be alone any more. I wasn't going to be in the dark and cold. There was going to be something great that I made out of the darkness; warm and brightness was going to replace most of the darkness. I was going to make such great creatures that where smart. There was going to be mankind, but humans were not going to know my secrets of the universe. I didn’t want to let humans know where I came from and all of the suffering I went through. Nothing that I will make is ever going to know how I created this world. There are some things in life that could not be found out for reasons beyond the human mind. That's why I created 3 separate keys for 3 separate books. Each one containing secrets so secret that not even the living of each world knows what's in their own worlds book. The time realm, the dream realm, and the light realm where the three dimensions that I created. They symbolized my best work. But I should have known that some of my creations would turn on me. Trying to get their greedy hands on one of the 3 books, Let alone the keys. Whoever has position of the books and looked inside them, they would know the meaning of life, and why it was created, but the one to own them all would be ruler of all the time in space, but of course everything has to have a catch. Once there is a new owner to these books, the owner will die shortly after they poses at least one of them, and be sent strait to the pits of hell where they will burn for eternity. No one would ever be able to take my place as ruler of the all time and space, but I know if anyone found out about the books and their power, things would get rather ugly. This world would become chaos, but as I thought sooner or later that day would come of my own creations turning against me. I made them too smart, too intelligent. One of the demotions figured out a way to take over, and that was the method that I had came up with…of trying to poses the three books of life. The light realm made up a powerful group called the Tillers. Their leader who came up with the brilliant plan was an alien named Grim. He assumed that they were going to bring me to my mercy and let them take over. If I did he would  more

We were alone, and I said- "It feels like we haven't spoken in ages,", to which he replies- "Your just so pretty, whenever I look at you, and then look at me, I think there is no point because you are too good for me." I didn't really know how to take it, because I didn't really know what he was getting at. So I just kind of said "Don't be silly." and we carried on walking. But ever since then he has been acting really strange. Like when I walk into a room he seizes up, and acts really jittery. I was sat by him the other day, and he wouldn't stop fidgeting, which he never used to do. Then the other day, he like dive bombed my legs, and after that when we were doing a drama warm up, he like moved my friend out of the way, and shouted- "I'm having her!", and he like pushed my head down :S So now I'm faced with a dilemma. What does his behavior mean? What was he getting at when he said I was 'too good'? I'm also worried about him, because he gets drunk a lot, and one of my friends today was talking about him, and he made all of them cry by talking about his dad, and he was talking about being suicidal. I don't know whether it is love, but these are the stringest feelings I have ever had for someone and I simply don't know what to do. I feel like we can't talk because he acts so wierd now PLLLEEAASSEE help me? Thank youu xxxx  more

Open Question: Deadly Love part 1 please read?

I looked at my room, what was left of my room. I look at the colorless walls like most of the house. My dark carpet that had gotten warns out over the years. The walls were slanted. The blue carpet was a darker. I dragged my hand against the hard thick dirty carpet. I felt my finger numbing as I rubber then against the carpet harder. There was gum on the floor it had turned black since before. My room was empty. It was always like that. I felt the cold golden knob against my warm fingers cooling. I walked through the narrow hallway with the white walls. The house felt so empty. We had gotten clear of the house months ago when we lost the house in January. I walked into my mom’s room. Her brown walls were hollow. We were ready to go to Del Monte Forest, California were uncle Hon lived. We were going to live there since we lost our house and need to stay some were. I walked though so big brown door that were the doors of my mothers room. I felt the cold golden knob against my warm fingers cooling them. ☼1☼ “Mom”? I muttered. My voice went higher than I expect it. There was a box in the middle of the lime room that was my mothers I walked to the box and looked what was inside. There was a picture of Scarlet, my twin who resident had gone missing three months ago after our Birthday and was calmed dead. I look at my sister she looked much like me she had my warm smile. my long reddish hair that went up to my neck. She had my long round classic nose. She had my almond green eyes but the only thing she did’t have was my beauty under my eye. I saw the lady that was my mother she looked quiet like me but was darker and quiet smaller. She had long thick hair up to her neck it was tied into a tress. She was a dark brunette tone. She had big green almond eye. she had laugh lines to. I heard mom chuckle “Over here”. She said her voice was cold and hard. I walked into the bathroom the blue color walls were dark “Mum, wait get these to the car”. She said making no notice that I was right next to her. She look at me holding the picture. She grabbed the picture from my hand and smiled warmly. “Remember were we took this picture”? she said about to cry. “At Santa Cruz last August”. Said. “OH”. She said. “Your sister looks just like you”. She said almost about to cry. “I wish she was back”. She said whimpering. I grabbed the boxes she was hold. They made my hand upset they were as a result heavy for me they were half my size. I walked out hearing my moms foots step behind me.

He was a dark tan color that almost made him look black. He had big brown eyes. He was tall only thirteen years old my little brother had gotten bigger he was almost my size. I let the boxes fall into the car it was a black Toyota Hybrid with 23 horse power. “Get in”. Mom said her voice got hard. What was her crisis she 2want us to go now she mad.

We had lost our house about a month ago. Mom had lost her job as a singer in Roxy’s chill curb. Mom hadn’t paid the bills since then. There was a dead silent’s in the car.

I said. ☼3☼ “Ok now go I don’t want you guys to be late.” She said. She hugged me and Elliot for one last time. The last goodbye to her to the Port Angles. Goodbye to my old life I would begin a new chapter in my life. We gave are ticket to a lady with a big grin on her face.” Have a good flight”. She said her voice was kind of squeaky.

Resolved Question: What is the right thing to do?

I don't believe in divorce at all. And every couple and every person has their problems, but my husband has a major problem with my family. My mother is an alcoholic, and she's never babysat for me, and she never wants to come see my kids.. etc. And I've hurt a great deal over the years about this, but I forgive and forget, and move on. My husband is LITERALLY incapable of forgiving and forgetting anything anyone ever does. And so he hates my mother with a passion. My sister too, bc they've argued in the past, and she has alcohol/drug probs too. So basically any time I talk to or about either one of them, my husband calls them "a dirty little c**t" or a "worthless piece of s**t".. and we've been in sooo many huge fights about this, it's almost split us up. Now the biggest problem is that he'll say these things right in front of my 2 and 4 yr old boys, w/out so much as a flinch, like as if he wants to teach them to hate them, or teach them to hold grudges. It's extremely damaging to my marriage, and very hurtful to me. We get along very well otherwise, as long as they're not brought up or anything, which I don't have them in my life too much anyhow bc of their lifestyle choices. And my husband is a WONDERFUL father otherwise. He's loving, he's playful with them, he does everything else right by them and me in every other way. He loves my dad. Idk what the right thing is to do.. I mean, my mom is my MOM for God's sake! I shouldn't have to delete texts to/from her, or clear the call log, and HIDE talking to my mom! And she is a warm and loving person, that happens to have a disease. What do I do? My husband purpously hits below the belt to make me cry about things my mom has done, and also says, "she doesn't give a s**t about you, Idk why you forgive so easily, she's a worthless drunk and a p.o.s." etc. HE'S the one hurting me. My mom is a wonderful loving person, who has a problem with alcohol, and has put my kids second to her disease, bc that's the nature of alcoholism. And like I said I don't really have them in my life anyway BC of their lifestyle choices.. MY GOSH! Live in my shoes, and get the abuse I get from him. When we get into a HUGE fight, I have NOBODY in my life at all. NOBODY.  more

Voting Question: Can I be held responsible if my dog bites Someone on my property even if they are not welcome?

I live in a rural part of ohio and have been getting a lot of solicitors selling meat, religion, etc. My dog has not bit anyone and is usually very good with strangers and warms up to people we have over very quickly, however when solicitors come knocking she is very protective and stands in front of me growling as I talk to them and if they look at her or talk to her she barks and growls with her teeth showing, if they ask me if she bites I tell them she might. If she does bite a solicitor can I be held responsible if it is on my property? And how can I keep solicitors from coming to my house? I don't want my dog to be put down for biting someone I didn't want on my property in the first place because she is doing her job of protecting myself and my kids.  more

Open Question: Stone Cold Steve Austin News: One More Match?

Stone Cold Steve Austin admits he "has one last match" in him. The big question, will we ever see it? "I appeared (as a celebrity guest host) on Monday Night RAW to push the movie (Damage)," says Austin. "WWE has changed. It's a different climate, more of a PG image. They've cleaned it up a bit. For me to go back, I have to watch my Ps and Qs. "It's another day and age. They've got young superstars to sell. Do I have a match left in me? Absolutely. Do I want to do one more? I don't know. "I'm very content with leaving well enough alone. I don't want to be 90% of what Stone Cold was." Austin says he's on the road promoting his movie this weekend, so don't expect to see him at Sunday’s WrestleMania 26. Austin says he was happy to see Bret Hart return to WWE, if only for a brief run and match against Vince McMahon at 'Mania. "That's the wrestling business for you. The match with Bret and Vince brings closure to the storyline. I whole-heartedly doubt Bret will ever forget the (Montreal Survivor Series) screwjob. He was one of my favourite guys to get in the ring with. I'm a big Bret Hart fan." Austin is proud of Damage, the story of John Brickner (Austin), an ex-con forced to make some difficult choices (becoming a bare-knuckles fighter), now out on DVD. At times, it's all too real. Just ask MMA fighter Paul Lazenby, who absorbed a wicked punch, not pulled like it had been so many times in wrestling rings across the world. "It was a montage-type scene. I threw a left hook and got it a little too deep. With my pinkie finger, I pushed his nose about two inches across the other side of his face. He just looked at me and said, 'Keep going.' So I kept swinging at him. We had a laugh about it, but I felt horrible." Austin has another film, The Expendables, scheduled for release this fall, where he's part of an outstanding cast of action heroes. Sylvester Stallone, Mickey Rourke, Jet Li, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture, Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger all appear. "There's lots of testosterone, with bullets and explosives flying everywhere," says Austin. As a wrestling icon, Austin stood at the top of the mountain. He was a huge money-maker who pushed wrestling into popularity levels it had never known. Austin was front and centre in changing the way fans looked at wrestlers. "As Stone Cold, I was in the grey area a lot, in a black and white business," says Austin. "Wrestling is good vs. evil and I brought both into one package. I was the anti-hero. I don't think when people thought of me they had warm, fuzzy thoughts. At the end, I wanted to do something else other than pro wrestling. It was the first love of my life. But I had to move down the road. I don't miss it anymore, but when I first got out, I missed it tremendously." Acting seemed like a natural next step. "The biggest catalogue of my work is in wrestling. Now, my goal in acting is to be as effective in front of a movie camera as I was in front of a WWE camera. What you see is me. I went to a couple of things with an acting coach. If I could do it all over again, I'd take drama classes back in the day when I was a youngster. "In anything you do, you set goals to go as high as you can. What I did in my pro wrestling career, when I was white hot, nobody before or since has touched me. I want to be a major part of the movie scene, just like that." Austin says he loves doing action movies. "I want to make movies I enjoy," he says. "I've learned that you really don't have a clue about the movie-making process until you've done three or four. It's like my first wrestling match, you just don't get comfortable in your skin. Back in the day, I was a big Charles Bronson fan. I loved Steve McQueen, Sly, Steven Seagal and Arnold movies." Hell, what's your thoughts on it? I can't get enough of Stone Cold. I'd be the happiest person on this planet to see Austin one more time in the ring, raising hell, spilling tons & tons of beer, OHHHHHHHHHH HELLLLLLLLLLL YEAHHHHHHHHH If you want to see Austin one more time or time after time raising hell (Which I'm damn sure, you want to), give me a hell yeah!!! No matter whom Stone Cold wrestles, he's gonna whoop his ass And that's the bottomline coz' the 'biggest fan' of 'Stone Cold' said so. OHHHHHHHHHHH HELLLLLLLLLLLL YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ckgjr30, what? Hell, I don't agree with ya. Forget about other wrestlers, he's 'Stone Cold' for a reason. No matter how old he gets, he can still come up the best. He can still raise as much hell as he used to irrespective of his age. He can still beat all the world champions out here in WWE & can become the champ once again because he's 'Stone Cold'. Broken Neck, what? Broken Knees, what? Broken legs, what? Broken Hands, what? Hell, everything can break down but not his spirit. Give me a hell yeah!!!!! So, kid,ckgjr30, You just don't know anything. just go back to your mother's laps & suck nipples. And that's the bottomline coz' the 'biggest fan' of 'Stone Cold' said so. OHHHHHHHHH HELLLLLLLLLLL YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!11 Well, Viper, I wanna see Austin whoop ass of either The 'Pathetic' Rock or of that 'dumb asshole' vince. OH HELL YEAH!!!  more

Resolved Question: Anyone have a nice mother-in-law?

I've read a lot of questions that are "mother-in-law" bashing. My mother-in-law is forcing me to do something, my mother-in-law doesn't think I'm good enough for her son, my mother-in-law wants to invite people I don't know to the wedding, blah blah blah. Does anyone have any nice mother-in-law stories to share? My future mother-in-law welcomed me to the family from the instant I met her. I was driving from Cairns in Far North Queensland (in Australia, for those not familiar) to Nambour, on the Sunshine Coast, on my own. His parents live roughly half way, so he suggested I stop in to stay the night and break the drive, as well as giving me the chance to meet them. I was terrified, to say the least, since I was doing it by myself. I pulled up outside the house, and she already had the front door open so she could hear me coming. She raced outside before I'd even opened the car door and gave me a huge hug, bundled me inside, sat me down and made me a cup of tea and put a plate of beautiful muffins in front of me that were still warm from baking! She showed me family photos (that my fiance didn't even know she still had!), had called my fiance previously to find out my favourite foods and even tried to convince me to stay another night! And it hasn't stopped. She rings and emails me for chats, she asks my opinion on things, including her outfit for the wedding, she and my future father-in-law gave us a very generous cash gift for an early wedding present, as we've just moved in together and she never tries to force her thoughts and opinions onto us about anything. She doesn't get involved in our arguments, she's not pushing her wants regarding our wedding, in fact she hasn't even said, "I'd really like if you... but you don't have to." She just wants us to be happy, which of course, we are. What's your nice mother-in-law story? Tickled... I'm sorry, I meant no offense by the question. I just like hearing the positive stories about MILs. Jenny Lynne... I'm not offended at all :o) But it's an interesting question. Yes, I do think, for my family at least, that because we're so far apart, we do take the time to email, call, write as much as possible, and make the most of time together. My fiance and I have recently moved further away from my Dad, my sister and her family, and his parents (but only by an hour or so drive) but closer to my Mum and stepdad. Growing up, we moved around a lot, so I guess we came to rely on each other for company until we got to know other people. Maybe the lifestyle (close to beaches, nice weather, etc) also allows families to do more things together - picnics, barbecues, backyard cricket, that sort of thing.  more

Resolved Question: Do you think the Prog Watermelons would deliberately work to harm the environment in order to harm business?

The forestry policy is a good example. Forests were neglected, not allowed to be cut or burn until super fires resulted that those idiots blamed on global warming, even though a few degree variation never caused an appreciable rise in fires, in fact it usually brings more precipitation that combats fires, and that's a documented scientific fact. The super fires have burned so hot because of so much fuel they have destroyed the seeds of vegetation that's evolved to take advantage of the natural cycles of burn and regrowth. Why did this happen? Prog Watermelons wanted to drive up the price of lumber and harm economies that revolve around it, which they did. They lied about the spotted owls problems, which isn't lack of nesting sites, they nest in McDonald's signs for hells sake, it's a stronger species of owl that's been taking over for a long time competing for food. They knew it, they lied about it, to harm the economy. Do they care that they have harmed the ecological balance of the forests by killing off vegetation so erosion runs rampant and pollutes streams and harms native fish? NOOOO ... all they do is lie about the causes and use that to further their ends. As long as "Science" is an expert witness of an activist group in government who pays them to say what they want, they have it made and can do anything they want to with the backup of bought disingenuous expert witnesses. That is EXACTLY what is going on in this vein, and global warming, and on many other fronts like stopping clean hydro electric plants using made up species that are really well established species which generally populate lakes and ponds, claiming the new species in a stream to stop a dam project which is over all good for the environment ... sure as heck promotes vegetative growth they feel is so vital when that angle helps them harm the economy. We don't have science any more, it's activism. We don't have government any more, it's corporatism that just pays one group of parasites like cap and trade global warming scammers, over a group who produces legitimate wealth for the country and creates real jobs.  more

I was in the city park half conceled by the shade of a large, beautiful weeping willow. I felt something stir beside me and I turned my iPod off as Reese kissed me on the cheek. "Hey Baby." He whispered in my ear. "Your late ya know." I placed my hands on my hips because I knew he liked it when I did that. "I know Alec, I'm sorry. My mom gave me a list of things to do befire I left that included dying her hair." He took my hands in his and I leaned forward to kiss him but ended up with my ass on the ground because of an adolescent Rottweiler jumped in between us. I laughed as it placed its front paws on my stomach and licked my face repeatedly. "Oh my god I am so sorry!" A guy with hair exactly like mine, hanging low to obscure his eyes slightly, but with the color's reversed, so instead of black with blond streaks, it was blond with black streaks. I could just make out the emerald green of his eyes. He was dressed in bright yellow skinny jeans and a hot pink tee. He was really cute... He pulled the dog off still apologizing. "I an truly sorry. She didn't mean it, I promise. She's just really excited to be in a new place." He looked down at the dog. "Dusty, no, you don't jump." Reese helped me up shooting daggers at the dog's owner. As he wrapped an arm around my waist I smiled and said, "She's okay. I have a doberman at home. I'm Aleczander by the way. This is Reese." I motioned to him. "I'm Todd. See you 'round?" "Sure." He smiled and stared as he walked away. Reese made an anger grumbling noise "What?" "Well, he was staring at you before I walked over and then his dog 'coincidentally' nocked you down. And then you were staring at him....." He looked away from me and I kissed his cheek. "Reese, are you telling me your jealous?" "No...Yes...I don't know. I'm being stupid aren't I? I'm sorry." "You're being very stupid." I kissed him softly. His lips were very warm. "I love it. Now where were you taking me?" "You never forget. Actually I was going to take you to your parent's house. They're away on business and Dawnielle is spending the night with your aunt right?" I nodded. "So I figured I could make you dinner, and it could be the two of us alone for the night." He took my hand and we began to walk towards his bright red Ford Figo. "You do know it's not out annivery yet right?" I rubbed my thumb in cirlce in the back of his hand. "Yes I do but that doesn't mean I can't make you dinner." We had reached the car and he turned me to look at him. "You know I love you right?" "Of course I do baby." I wrapped my arms around his neck. "Why would you think I didn't?" "I don't know, a feeling I have. You hungry?" He opened the passenger door and I climbed in, watching his every step as he walked around to the driver's door. After he got in and stuck the key in the ignition he looked at me. "What?" I leaned over and kissed him. Though he was suprised by the suddeness he smiled and kissed me back. I movef so the I was more comfortable and placed my right hand on his leg for support while my left hand tangled in his hair deepening the kiss. He placed his right hand on my cheek and his left and moved mine closer to his crotch. I pulled away and laughed. "I am not having sex in your car in public." "Never said we were." I kissed him quickly and sat in my seat corectly, buckling up. "Come on, let's get home." He nodded and buckled up, starting the engine and taking off down the road.  more

Resolved Question: I really need help.! I'm So Confused. [relationship stuff]?

[This is going to be a LONG one, but please take some time out to read this and help me ): I'm so confused... Thanks in advance] I met this guy named Keith in April... on a Saturday night at this fundraiser thing. We talked for 3 hours, he didn't leave until i left.=] Then on Monday me..being dumb out of NO WHERE told him to come over... And he did. And later on that night he asked me out. we were going out for 2 weeks and everything was going good Then he broke up with me Because his car got smashed, and he had no other way to see me. and at the time we broke up, i didn't know the REAL reason of why we broke up. i heard many different reasons from different people. And i was just so confused... I heard that i was too clingy was the problem, another reason was because his car is smashed and he had no other way to see me. and he wanted me to be with someone who COULD make me happy at the time. and then i heard there was another girl involved..and i just had all these bad thoughts in my head about the REAL reason! AND So... just recently like 2 days ago, we talked...and i told him about my feelings towards him and how i missed him and stufff.. and i asked him what was the real reason of why we broke up he said in excact words ["aiite honestly i felt like we were rushing things and that sence i wouldnt be able to see you that you should be with someone that could and make you happy and i would try hooking up with you later when i got my car fix. there was never another chick tho"] We hung out at his house on that SAME night and we watched a movie together and cuddled... at the time when we hung out i had another bf named Codey... i told Keith i had a bf and he told me, cuddling was all we were gonna do [but he ended up kissing me first so we kissed that night] i cheated on codey that night cause i kissed keith.. So the next day after we hung out, he had some friends and cousins over. i called him, and he asked if i wanted to hang out and i said sure. so he picked me up. and his two friends were in the car[ i expected it to be just me and him in the car] So we're in the car, and we stopped by the store..and in the store i was behind the 3 guys...and keith was talking to them mostly and not me..so i was just a tag a long kinda... And i said to myself.. "if i knew it was gonna be like this when we hung out then i shouldve stayed home" So then we get to his house and chill with everyone for a bit..then we went swimming.. And his friend was tryna drown me..but keith followed him when he tried to do it and he brought me back over to the shallow side..cause i can't swim.. (: <3 an hour later? we all got out of the pool and went inside , then keith said he forgot to turn off the lights outside so he went outside and i followed him , he turned off the lights and i was JUST about to step on the porch to go inside and he held my hand spun me around to face him and he kissed me...(= Then we went inside, and he asked if i had a towel or not i said no. he gave me his towel[: Then he asked if i had dry clothes to change into and i said i have jeans just not a dry top [ i went in the pool with my friends bathingsuit bottom and my tanktop i wore that day] So i changed into his shirt and my jeans and sat on the couch..my hair is still wet and im SHIVERING! Keith PLOPPED right next to me and hugged me really tight and hugged me tightt and kept me warm and kissed me and stuff(: RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIS COUSINS/FRIENDS.. And let me tell you..i've Noticed ALOT of guys don't do that infront of family or friends...and it pisses US GIRLS OFF. But keith did it...he cuddled and hugged me and everythingg infront of everyone and he didn't caree. and i loved that about him.. We had a serious convo that night about getting back together after his car got fixed right? Soo the next day, i called him and we were talking and stuff but it really didn't seem like he wanted to talk to me... and i've been like giving him his space like every guy needs.. so i haven't been talking to him . even tho its been a DAY since i've seen him. And i don't know if he really does like me again or not...and i keep getting these stupid thoughts in my head about him using me, and not liking me and stuff.. idk im just a paranoid FREAK. please explain this relationship to me... i'm so confused... thank you in advance.

Voting Question: Comedy and Satire Finals: HELP!!!?

Hey, part of my finals is from a class called Comedy and Satire and for my final I choose to write a song parody and play it in front of an audience. I'm doing We're Going to be Friends by The White Stripes. Listen to the song. This is the original lyrics: Fall is here,hear the yell back to school,ring the bell brand new shoes,walking blues climb the fence,books and pens I can tell that we're going to be friends Walk with me,Suzy Lee through the park and by the tree we will rest upon the ground and look at all the bugs we found then safely walk to school without a sound Well here we are,no one else we walked to school all by ourselves there's dirt on our uniforms from chasing all the ants and worms we clean up and now its time to learn Numbers,letters,learn to spell nouns,and books,and show and tell at playtime we will throw the ball back to class,through the hall teacher marks our height against the wall And we don't notice any time pass we don't notice anything we sit side by side in every class teacher thinks that I sound funny but she likes the way you sing Tonight I'll dream while I'm in bed when silly thoughts go through my head about the bugs and alphbet and when I wake tommorow I'll bet that you and I will walk together again cause I can tell that we're going to be friends And this is what I have so far: Summer time, 2 more weeks throw the books, at the geeks school is done, so have some fun play outside, with everyone summer time is coming really soon At concerts, stay alert jump the fence and don’t get hurt we will chill with everyone and at midnight, It’ll be done I think my ears are really bleeding The weather is warm, the beach is near grab your friends and a cooler of beer flex your guns for all the girls thank God I did all those curls go to the shack and buy an ice cream  more

Resolved Question: English Story redone need some opinions!!?

Ok so I gave my story to my teacher and she said it is worth an A--. So I have added a bit cuz she said not to worry about the word limit. If you didn't read it last time then I had to pick a song then write a story about it. The song I picked was Untitled by Simiple Plan. Please Critique!!!! Thanks!! I open my eyes, I try to see but I’m blinded by the white light. I can’t remember how, I can’t remember why I’m lying here tonight. There’s a noise, a loud noise, I don’t know what it is. It’s like someone’s trying to crush the car into a million little pieces. I try to scream, but no sound comes out, just a low gurgling noise and something warm and sticky fills my mouth. I close my eyes and hope it all goes away, the pain, the noise, everything. I just want it to stop! I want it to be over! I hear a scream, it sounds far away. “She’s bleeding! Her mouth is bleeding!” It’s the same person as the one who screamed. The girl’s voice sounds familiar but I can’t think of who it is. I take a breath to try and think but no air comes; instead the warm liquid rushes down my throat. I try to think about what the girl had said, suddenly I realise, it’s blood. I try to cough to get the blood out of my lungs but it doesn’t work instead more blood flows down my throat. I can’t breathe! My eyes are getting heavy! I can’t hold on anymore! The pain is leaving my body. “Slow down! You’re going to crash!” screams Becky, but she’s not serious, she’s laughing along with all my friends “Don’t stress Becky, I’m a pro driver, we’re not going to crash!” I laugh. I turn around to look at my little sister, she looks happy but scared all at the same time. I have just gotten my P plates! It’s amazing, the freedom, being able to go from place to place without an adult, it’s like a dream come true. But before I was allowed to take my parents car out I had to promise that I wouldn’t do anything reckless or stupid and definitely not try to act cool in front of my friends. Of course I promised and I didn’t plan on doing anything stupid, but when I got onto the highway and saw that there was not a car around, I just thought what the hell. It’s not like I’m going to crash. I hear one of my friends scream but I can’t understand what they are saying. I turn back around to watch the road, but it’s already too late. I have veered on to the wrong side of the road and there is a truck coming straight at us. I try to swerve but the truck still hits the back of our car and pushes us down the bank. The car is rolling and I can hear the screams of my friends and my sister. I hit my head on the window and everything goes black. The pain is back. “Becky” I try to say but the words still won’t come, just more blood. I hear someone say internal bleeding, but it means nothing to me. The noise has stopped and then without warning the roof of the car comes off. I’m petrified, I long for my mum to come and tell me that everything is going to be alright, to hold my hand and make the pain stop. I want to be a little kid again! I try to cry but the sobs won’t come, I just keep choking on the blood, my blood. My lungs are burning as they come down to their last little supply of air. I’m starting to get dizzy again, my head is spinning. “Please make it stop!” I want to scream but I can’t! My eye lids feel like they weigh a tonne, I can’t keep them open anymore! I’m done fighting this! I can’t stop it any longer! I let my eyes slide shut. “NO! Stay with me!” I hear a voice but it sounds like it’s miles away. I’m starting to feel numb, I welcome it. As the night goes on I’m fading away.  more

Resolved Question: Can you fix my grammar and tell me what you think?

Can you fix my grammar and tell me what you think? The sun is way to warm. I know it’s a big ball of fire and all that, but it was just to warm. Most of the plants around the cul-de-sac had withered and died, and I had a feeling I was going with them. The tar was melting and sending up heat waves as I was being practically dragged along, up towards the school. “You know I cant haul your *** up to school everyday?” I look up at my friend Isadora, tall, brown hair with eyes to match and an atypical sarcasm that never seems to falter. “I highly doubt that” I smile up at her, she’s dragging me easily like I was her backpack. She smiles back down at me. Me and Isadora have been friends since we could walk and talk. We went to the same primary school and we done everything togther. It was funny really, most people never expected people like us to be best friends or at least friends at all. She was tall and confident while I usually sat in the background. Isadora would get herself into all kinda fights and trouble while I would be the one at the top of the class with marks. We were totally different but we seemed to match and we always got on. She pulls me through the green gates at the front of the school. The school has just been rebuilt and refurbished and I actually have to agree it looks good, more like a college than anything but it looks good. We cross over and make it up the steps and happily out of the sun. I was never good in the sun, always fainting from sun stroke and I easily burn which was unhelpful as I was either a deathly pale or a unattractive beetroot colour. Most people say its because I wear long sleeved cardigans or t-shirts over my shirts that I faint, but that’s because I have these awkward, horrible veins. Ones that are a pale blue that are so bright that they look as if I’ve went over them on my skin in a bright blue pen, which is just stupid and I would never do. The bell rings over head indicating the start of registration. Me and Isadora are in the same registration class, so we make our way towards maths and the other six people in our class. Registration is basically fifteen minuets before actual class which most students spend time spreading gossip or doing homework. There wasn’t much gossip going round except that there was suppose to be new students starting today.  more

Resolved Question: A weird dream! Any interpretations?! I'll take anything!?

I had this dream! Hope you can tell me what's about! :) So, It started out in a museum where some of my closest friends were there! We didnt pay to go in the museum because we blended in with a school trip that had just arrived to the museum (there was alot of kids but they didnt notice I was there!) So we went around looking at all exhibitions and a young man who worked at the museum (very handsome but I have never seen him!) asked me several questions! But then I left because we were supposedly with the kids and we left and my friends and I went running down this small hill with very green grass and a perfect sun that didnt burn but felt warm at your skin! After that, in a corner my dad was waiting for us in a white jeep. The road was perfectly paved! There was alot of parked cars and traffic! But then, my dad decided to leave the jeep and I took over! But he started walking in front of the jeep! The road became unpaved and bumpy ! But my bestfriend helped me drive the car! I remember there being laughter and asking each other what to do next! And my father always in front of us walking like leading the way! My bestfriend is a boy! lol!!! :P  more

Resolved Question: What did her reactions means?

I love a girl. I confessed to her once but she just rejected. But I didn give up and tried every chance to be with her (on the verge of becoming a stalker, I tell ya). Her reactions were cold till last week, she became so warm toward me I could cry /:)). -But- What I WONDER- She always avoids the romantic questions or anything related about that, which seals my mouth off every time I try. Yesterday, I found a nice chance, I helped her friend move the stuff to her house. I thought she would 'buh-bye' me at the front door of her house, but she invited me in. After finishing the works, I was going to go home, she asked would I stayed and eat with she and her friend. After finished eating, I intended to go home again, she asked me to stay to help stuffing her friend's luggage (mind you, it was 1 am). When she took me out of the house, she looked so pretty I wanted to hug her and say how much I love her and how unbearable I have to hold that in. But It seemed I swallowed my tongue. However, at the bus stop, I just called her and said 'I love you, I wanted to say that infront of you but I couldn' AND she just *paused* and 'is there anything to say, we have to go to sleep now...' and I 'ugh err' like a dumbass and she REPEATED that again, then she WAITED for one minute and hang up... I was dumbfound, yes. If this could help you help me, we are Asian... Please tell me what did her reactions means? Is there any chance that she likes me already?... She is not a shy girl but she doesnt talk about -love-  more

Resolved Question: Can you guys read this please?

Hey everyone. I love writing and I starting writing this story today. I don't have very much but I would love to know what you guys think of it so far! Thank you! “I never thought he would die. I never meant for this to happen. It was just a game; just a joke. This is all a mistake.” I say calmly as the police question me for the millionth time. “I did nothing wrong. I didn’t kill him and I didn’t watch him be killed.” I get out of the chair that is so warm because I’ve been sitting in it for the last 15 horrible hours. I walk to the wall with the window and stare out of it, wishing I was in that world. “Then how did this happen? How did you even meet Adam?” Detective Brooks questions me. “How did I meet Adam?” I bark as I turn around to face him once more. “Last summer August 16th, 2009. It was a party for all the incoming seniors. It happens every year. He was new to the town. He was the “it” guy every girl and some of the guys wanted to do.” I walked to the table and sat on top of it looking out that same window as I tell the story that landed me here, the one that so far has put me in jail, and the one that I had a part of but it was not all me. I didn’t kill Adam. It wasn’t me but I’ll let you be the judge of that. “We got to the party at 10 o’clock. Everyone..” “Who is “we”?” Detective Brooks poses this question lightly I look at him pissed. “If you would let me finish I would tell you.” I stand back up and walk to the glass mirror I’m not a dumb blonde I know people are watching us. They are listening to every word that comes out of my mouth. “It was Cora, Melinda, and I. We went into the party and we were not the first there but I didn’t see him when I walked in. I remember it like it was yesterday.” I trail off (this stuff under is supposed to be in italic.) “No mother! We are just going to a small party you can trust me. It’s no big deal I promise mom. Would I ever lie to you?” Caroline says pushing her head out her bedroom door to look at her mom while she is still getting dressed. Caroline is a very bubbly girl with bright blue eyes that looks like the ocean and she has the most Barbie blonde hair you have ever seen. She is the girl that everyone wants to be. She is 100% the queen bee at Apple wood Private High School. “Cora let’s go!” Caroline screams as she runs down the stair in her sky high heels.” I’m leaving if you don’t get your fat *** down here right now!” “Caroline Marie!” Her mother howls “No cussing in this house young lady!” “Sorry Mommy.” She fakes a giggles as she runs to the car. They all get in the car and Caroline is driving. She runs a red light a street down from her house. They have the music up high and the windows down dancing and singing to the latest hit song by one of those boy bands. Caroline is always late so it is no surprise to anyone that she is late to her own party that she took on the hosting job for. Cora, the first one out, she opens Caroline's door for her, checking to make sure she looks perfect. Cora is a very quite girl with light brown hair and a nervous manner. When Caroline tells her to jump the first thing out of her pretty little lips is how high. Melinda is the last one out. She is lucky she made it into this group. She is not as skinny as the rest. In fact she is an overweight red head who is nothing but a gossiper. Everyone knows the only reason Caroline picked her up for her group was so Melinda would not gossip about her. The girls walk in Caroline (as always) walks in the front and center. All the guys stare as she walks by. Caroline is in search for one thing and one thing only; the new kid. She has been told by many people that not only has he got a handsome face with the clear, blue eyes that seemed to be staring always at you and only at you but he is a wonder in bed. His eyes are electric! They make every girl around town go mad. Caroline turns around and asks Cora if she has seen him. She is then told by Caroline to go find him so she can get what she wants. So what do you guys think? The part in Italic is her memories. Thats how she is telling the story. It will switch from present to past in the story! And I'd like to say the memory part is being told in 3rd person.  more

Voting Question: My BF mom hates me! Help?

My BF and I have been dating for 3 years and have been living together for a year. I have a 5 year which is not my BFs, but has taken him in . they are very close now. He is 26 and I am 22. The first 7months dating was terrific. Both of our families loved the other person. We were always with his parents having dinner, lunch, just talking. His mother seemed to love me. we all went shopping and to lunches together. I helped his mother with holiday dinners. We baked cupcakes. We even made a scrap book together of my BF n I. Most of all they LOVED my son. I was so happy to felt so warm and welcomed. Then all of a sudden I noticed that we didn't go over much anymore, but I didn't think anything of it. It was 10 months after we started dating and I was planning my sons baptism. things seemed to go sour. I decided to have it on mothers day. My pasture gave me the date and talked me into how special it would be on that day since it being my mothers day and his baptism. I sent all the invitations out including one to his family. One day we were at my house and he got a call from his mom. He went to his house. He came back and said that his mother had screamed at him about the baptism. She said "how dare she have it on mothers day. Why did you let her pick that day. You know we always have a cook out. " I felt horrible and thought that I made a big mistake and hoped no one else would be mad. I called and asked a few family members and they said that it was fine, no worries. I told my BF I didn't expect him to be there and that he should do what his mom was doing. He wanted to be there so he split the day. She also didn’t have a cook out it was a brunch and they planned it last minute. Next time I saw her we were at a friends BBQ. My BF and I walked over and went straight over to say hi to his parents. We went over and I said hi. His sister and father said hi back but no response came from his mother. I said it again and realized she was ignoring me. I also noticed she wouldn't even look at me. Even if I got in front of her sight she would turn her head. I left hurt and mad. I told my BF about it and he said he would talk to her. He talked to her and she said she didn't like me. He asked why. She said bc of the Mdays thing, and named ridiculous reasons. Even saying things about me that weren't true and were disgusting. No real reasons not to like someone. All of this not true or any of her concern. She also made up stories about me and other guys that my friend hung around with. So ever since then she has ignored and then finally it became she would look at me and then say hi and by or even respond if I asked her something, but she still does not converse with me and avoids me at all costs. My BF and I now live together. She has only been to our place once even though she has been invited on many occasions. We only see her at holidays and birthdays. We are never included in anything or she lets my BF know events last minute. like a day or two before. I am a very shy person and I was nervous to talk to her so I wrote her a letter. 13 pages hand written. It took a lot of time and effort. It has been almost 6 months now and she still tells my BF she has not read it. On top of this his only sister hates me too. She barley talks to me as well or is snippy bc of his mom. Also I just found out from some of his family that she talks about me to everyone and tells everyone how much she dislikes me and wishes we weren’t together. I hate holidays now I am so stressed over them. I still go to everything though. I'm to the point though that I don't know if it is even worth it anymore. I love holidays and I want them to be happy not any more stressful than they need to be. Plus I'm always asking my family last minute to plan around his family. I'm sick of that as well. I do not know what to do. I'm not the kind of person that can keep dealing with this. I take things too personal. That is just my personality. I also think about our future. What if we were to get married and have kids? Is it always going to be this way? I don't know if I could be with him if nothing changes. Also he has not talked to mother much at all. I do not want to bug him bc I do not want anything said about me putting a wedge in between them. I am starting to resent my BF for not sticking up for. I know that if the situation was reversed I would stick up for me. I've done it in the past for an ex.The most he has done is denied her accusations when she calls and tries saying something about me.I need help!What should I do? I would appreciate any advice.  more

Resolved Question: My boyfriends mother hates me! What should I do?

Both of our families loved the other person. We were always at his house with his parents having dinner, lunch, just talking, you name it we did it. His mother seemed to love me we all went shopping and to lunches together. I helped his mother with holiday dinners. We baked cupcakes. We even made a scrap book together of when My BF and I went to Vegas. Most of all they LOVED my son. I was so happy to feel so warm and welcomed. Especially since I thought it would difficult having a son. Then all of a sudden I noticed that we didn't go over much anymore, but I didn't think anything of it. It was 10 months after we started dating and I was planning my sons baptism that things seemed to go sour. I decided to have it on mother’s day. My pasture gave me the date and talked me into how special it would be on that day since it being my mothers day and his baptism. I sent all the invitations out including one to his family. One day we were at my house and he got a call from his mom. He said he would be right back and went down to his house. He came back and said that his mother had been screaming at him because she was upset about the baptism. She said "how dare she have it on mothers day. Why did you let her pick that day. You know we always have a cook out. That is so rude..." I felt horrible and thought that I made a big mistake and hoped no one else would be mad. I called and asked a few family members and they said that it was fine, no worries. They thought it was a good idea.

She also didn’t have a cook out it was a brunch and they planned it last minute. It was the same time almost as everything we I planned for the baptism.

She also said that they said I put a wedge in between my son's father and his mom. All of this not true or any of her concern. She also made up stories about me and other guys that my friend hung around with. All the stories she told were before I met my BF anyway. I didn't talk to those people anymore since I was spending most my time with mike and plus the times she said hit happened were past events. So what does a past your are making up about me have to do with the present. To me they weren't real reasons. Plus I came to realize that a few girls I went to high school worked with her. We weren’t fiends either. Hmmm…. Wonder where that stuff came from.So ever since then she has ignored and then finally it became she would look at me and then say hi and by or even respond if I asked her something, but she still does not conversate with me and avoids me at all costs. My BF and I now live together. She has only been to our place once even though she has been invited on many occasions. We only see her at holidays and birthdays. We are never included in anything or she lets my BF know events last minute. I mean like a day or two before. I am a very shy person and I was nervous to talk to her so I wrote her a letter. 13 pages hand written. It took me a lot of time and effort. It has been almost 6 months now and she still tells my BF she has not read it. On top of this his only sister hates me too. She barley talks to me as well or is snippy. Also I just found out from some of his family that she talks about me to everyone and tells everyone how much she dislikes me and wishes we weren’t together. I hate holidays now I am so stressed over them. I go to everything though. I'm to the point though that I don't know if it is even worth it anymore. I love holidays and I want them to be happy not any more stressful than they need to be. Plus I'm always asking my family last minute to plan around his family. I'm sick of that as well. I do not know what to do. I'm not the k  more

Resolved Question: What do you guy think of my story?

Hey everyone. I love writing and I starting writing this story today. I don't have very much but I would love to know what you guys think of it so far! Thank you! “I never thought it would end like this. I never thought he would die. I never meant for this to happen. It was just a game; just a joke. This is all a mistake.” I say calmly as the police question me for the millionth time. “I did nothing wrong. I didn’t kill him and I didn’t watch him be killed.” I get out of the chair that is so warm because I’ve been sitting in it for the last 15 horrible hours. I walk to the wall with the window and stare out of it, wishing I was in that world. “Then how did this happen? How did you even meet Adam?” Detective Brooks questions me. “How did I meet Adam?” She barks as she turns around to face him once more. “August 16th, 2009. It was a party for all the incoming seniors. It happens every year. He was new to the town. He was the “it” guy every girl and some of the guys wanted to do.” I walk to the table and sit on top of it looking out that same window as I tell the story that landed me here, the one that would end up putting me in jail, and The one that I had a part of but it was not all him. I didn’t kill Adam. It wasn’t me but I’ll let you be the judge of that. “We got to the party at 10 o’clock. Everyone..” “Who is “we”?” Detective Brooks poses this question lightly I look at him pissed. “If you would let me finish I would tell you.” I stand back up and walk to the glass mirror I’m not a dumb blonde I know people are watching us. They are listening to every word that comes out of my mouth. “It was Cora, Melinda, and I. We went into the party and we were not the first there but I didn’t see him when I walked in. I remember it like it was yesterday.” I trail off (this stuff under is supposed to be in italic.) “No mother! We are just going to a small party you can trust me. It’s no big deal I promise mom. Would I ever lie to you?” Caroline says pushing her head out her bedroom door to look at her mom while she is still getting dressed. Caroline is a very bubbly girl with bright blue eyes that looks like the ocean and she has the most Barbie blonde hair you have ever seen. She is the girl that everyone wants to be. She is 100% the queen bee at Apple wood Private High School. “Cora let’s go!” Caroline screams as she runs down the stair in her sky high heels.” I’m leaving if you don’t get your fat ass down here right now!” “Caroline Marie!” Her mother howls “No cussing in this house young lady!” “Sorry Mommy.” She fakes a giggles as she runs to the car. They all get in the car and Caroline is driving. She runs a red light a street down from her house. They have the music up high and the windows down dancing and singing to the latest hit song by one of those boy bands. Caroline is always late so it is no surprise to anyone that she is late to her own party that she took on the hosting job for. Cora is the first to get out. She walks around to Caroline’s side opening the car door for her. She checks Caroline to make sure she looks perfect. Cora is a very quite girl with light brown hair and a nervous manner. She is Caroline’s personal slave. When Caroline tells her to jump the first thing out of her pretty little lips is how high. Melinda is the last one out. She is lucky she made it into this group. She is not as skinny as the rest. In fact she is an overweight red head who is nothing but a gossiper. Everyone knows the only reason Caroline picked her up for her group was so Melinda would not gossip about her. The girls walk in Caroline (as always) walks in the front and center. All the guys stare as she walks by. Caroline is in search for one thing and one thing only; the new kid. She has been told by many people that not only is he hot but he is a wonder in bed. Caroline turns around and asks Cora if she has seen him. She is then told by Caroline to go find him so she can get what she wants. So what do you guys think? The part in Italic is her memorys. Thats how she is telling the story. It will swich from present to past in the story! The memory part is being told in 3rd  more

Resolved Question: Window Air Conditioner, Condensation, Wall Outlet? more stuff?

Hi I asked a question earlier... I wish the format was more like a forum in which I could reply, but anyway this was my question: "We have this window AC, I noticed that (especially on humid days) there is condensation on the top and some on the front of the AC that builds up. There is this wall outlet underneath the window into which it's plugged into. What would happen if this condensation or drop of water got into the outlet? Also, I'm pretty sure that there aren't any air leaks for warm humid air to be getting into." Well, I noticed that the AC came with this foam that you can put up on the top between the glass and the window to keep warm air from coming in. I put the foam in but the condensation still occurs on the top of the AC a bit, and a little bit around the dial that lets you change the direction of the air. I have it insulated around the AC and underneath it and yet this still happens... unless I'm missing something... Also, the water drips out the back like it should so I'm guessing it is tilted right. The AC is new btw, it's some 5,000 btu we put in the living room. It seems to cool it off enough. Anyway, in my earlier question someone said that what could happen from condensation or water dripping into the outlet is that eventually a breaker trip could happen. The thing that concerns me the most is the chance of some water perhaps getting into the wall outlet underneath. Is a breaker trip the only thing to worry about? The AC isn't going to blow up on me is it? Thanks.  more

Open Question: My boyfriends mother hates me! ANy ideas on what to do?

My Boyfriends mother hates me I need some advice. My boyfriend and I have been dating for 3 years come this August and have been living together for a year. I also have a 5 year little boy of which my BF is not the father, but has taken in and is caring for. My BF and I grew up a few houses down from each other. He is 26 and I am 22. The first 7months dating was terrific. Both of our families loved the other person. We were always at his house with his parents having dinner, lunch, just talking, you name it we did it. His mother seemed to love me we all went shopping and to lunches together. I helped his mother with holiday dinners. We baked cupcakes. We even made a scrap book together of when My BF and I went to Vegas. Most of all they LOVED my son. I was so happy to feel so warm and welcomed. Especially since I thought it would difficult having a son. Then all of a sudden I noticed that we didn't go over much anymore, but I didn't think anything of it. It was 10 months after we started dating and I was planning my sons baptism that things seemed to go sour. I decided to have it on mothers day. My pasture gave me the date and talked me into how special it would be on that day since it being my mothers day and his baptism. I sent all the invitations out including one to his family. One day we were at my house and he got a call from his mom. He said he would be right back and went down to his house. He came back and said that his mother had been screaming at him because she was upset about the baptism. She said "how dare she have it on mothers day. Why did you let her pick that day. You know we always have a cook out. That is so rude..." I felt horrible and thought that I made a big mistake and hoped no one else would be mad. I called and asked a few family members and they said that it was fine, no worries. They thought it was a good idea. I told my BF I didn't expect him to be there and that he should do what his mom was doing. I did not care. He wanted to be there though. So he split the day. She also did not have a cook out it was a brunch and they planned it last minute. It was the same time almost as everything we I planned for the baptism. (Ironic) After that I was nervous to see her, but I thought it would just pass and would be fine. Next time I saw her we were at my friends BBQ across the street. My BF and I walked over and went straight over to say hi to his parents. We went over and I said hi. His sister and father said hi back but no response came from his mother. I said it again and realized she was ignoring me. I also noticed she wouldn't even look at me. Even if I got in front of her sight she would turn her head. I left hurt and mad. I told my BF about it and he said he didn't notice, but he would talk to her. He talked to her and she said she didn't like me. He asked why. She said bc of the Mdays thing, and named ridiculous reasons. Even saying things about me that weren't true and were disgusting. She said that ladies she works with told her I was easy.

Voting Question: How can I make my upstairs cooler?

I have a split level home with a 7 year old central air unit. I moved into the house in January. My home is in south central Pennsylvania and as of late, we've needed to make use of the a/c in our central air unit. Unfortunately, the unit is not keeping our upstairs as comfortable as we'd like, which is making for less than ideal sleeping conditions. We recently installed a programmable thermostat, which has been running fine. The thermostat is located in the front living room of our house, which does not receive very much sunlight at all during the day time. The entire downstairs of our house stays at a comfortable level. However as soon as you start to ascend the stairs to the second floor, you can immediately start to feel a significant change in the air temperature. I'm willing to bet the temperature upstairs is a good 5 degrees warmer than the air downstairs. There are a total of 5 bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs. Two of the bedrooms were additions to the house and do not have any vents or duct work going through them. I've toyed with closing the vents in the other bedrooms and one bathroom (the other bathroom in in the master bedroom) to see if that would make an airflow difference. Unfortunately, we haven't noticed any change after horsing around with a few different vent settings. I know heat rises so it would make sense for the upstairs to be a bit warmer, but this difference is significant. Any suggestions on how to offset this temperature change and make the upstairs a bit more bearable? Our thermostat is set at 75 during the day while we're at work, 72 for the hours of 4:00 to 9:00 and then 69 for sleeping from 9:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. We also have a whole house fan, but I always thought that would only do any good for pulling air in from the outside when the outdoor temperature was cooler than the indoor temperature. Would it make any difference running that at night?  more

Resolved Question: Pranks to pull at a slumber party?

Hey :) I'm turning 13 on Friday and I'm having my party on Saturday night. I was gonna make it Friday night but I'm working the next day xD So anyway, 8 of meh friends are coming over at 8pm, and we're gonna have a Chineese, and muck around and then 7 of them are staying to sleep as the other isn't allowed [strange huh?]. So me and my friend was talking about pranking the others in the middle of the night but we have no idea what to do! We want a few pranks that you don't need to go out and buy stuff for or a are mean. Don't say put all their hands in warm water so they pee themselves as I don't want them all peeing in my front room! I had an idea though ;; Put a row of chairs in a room, each person, not including you, sits on a chair and you put a towel over each of their heads. Say to them 'Everyone take off something you don't need'. 99% of them will automatically think of clothes and take off easy stuff like earings, bracelets, socks, belts etc. Keep repeating, 'Take off something you don't...' until eventually everyone is down to their underwear. After that, if someone hasn't already figured it out, tell them that no one wins because no one took off the towel. THEY DON'T NEED A TOWEL! If someone does take it off during the game, then they win! :D I might do that before we go to sleep though but I want one to play on a single girl in the middle of the night :) Especially this one girl, Holly, as she's my friend but can be a right bitch sometimes, so I want to prank her so bad! Also, if you have any ideas for games, stuff to do etc then tell me! :D Thanks in advance =]  more

Resolved Question: HELP my dog was hit in the HEAD by a car! =[?

My Dear Yahoo users, YESTERDAY: My 3 yr. old Pomeranian (6lbs) ran into the street and was struck in the HEAD by a moving car. At the moment of impact, his head and neck completely bent back in an awkward 90 degree angel and he lay there frozen, eyes wide open, tongue hanging out. I thought his neck was broken and he had died. Miraculously, on the way to the vet, he was still alive and laying in a normal position. He did not bleed anywhere at all. However, his head kept tilting to one side and he seemed to have uncontrollable drooling from the mouth. He also did not seem responsive to his name. I constantly called to him so he would not pass out or go into a coma. It took about 1 hour to get to the only 24 hour pet hospital, and I feared he would have brain damage. At the vet, the doctor said his pupils seemed fine and responsive, and he seemed mentally ok. X-rays were done and he had no internal injuries in the body cavity. He was given steroids, iv drip, and manitoll to prevent blood swelling in his brain. He did urinate all over his towels. I wanted to get a CAT scan (since the injury was to his head and NOT body) but the vet said only to get them if we observe abnormalities within the next few days. I am extremely concerned with his neck and spinal cord...because of the seriousness of his neck being bent, even though he seems fine now. TODAY (24 hours later) He sleeps most of the time, his nose is dry and warm. He responds to his name now, and has an appetite. He peed once in his wee wee box by himself, and drank water. He even went down the stairs to greet a guest. TODAY (36 hours later) He is still staying under the bed sleeping, but he wakes up when you call his name. He has not pooped since the accident, or peed since this morning. He sometimes lays there with his eyes wide open, but changes position once in awhile. His front legs do seem a little bit rigid. MY CONCERNS and QUESTIONS: Will he survive this head trauma if he makes it past the next 72 hours? Will he be able to make a full recovery? What are the symptoms we should watch out for if he develops bleeding in the brain? The X-rays to his entire body: is it able to show if there were any spinal cord damage? (the doctor said she was scanning for damage in his lungs =X) I insisted to the doctor that his head was the only place hit, and hit very hard...but she would not let me get a CT scan just yet...was this LOGICAL? Even though he is eating and drinking normally, does this mean he is fine? Is his life still in IMMEDIATE DANGER? I AM SO WORRIED. Any other information you could give me will be greatly appreciated! (ESP if you have had a similar experience) I am forever grateful! THANK YOU! UPDATE: MONDAY (48 Hours later) Pom Pom has been urinating and defecating (a little diarrhea). He is eating and drinking normally. His walking is slow and a little unbalanced, but all of his legs are working ok. I did the gum capillary refill check and it seems normal. I would like to relieve him of some of his head pain...I purchased some DOG ASPIRIN tablets...but am not sure if I can give it to him since he might have a brain injury. PLEASE LET ME KNOW! THANKS ONCE AGAIN my dear answers for all your help and support, I am so grateful.  more

Resolved Question: Am I witnessing racism in my workplace?

I've been working at our local Salvation Army for almost a year. Our supervisors, and the rest of the employees are all hispanic--and so am I. Even 3/4 of our customers are Latino/Hispanic. Before I started working there, a friend of mine (she's caucasian; we'll call her Casey), and I were job hunting, and we applied at the same places. We both got hired at the SA at the same time, and we started at the exact same time. Even almost a year later, we still have the exact same hours. Back to the question. After a few months there, I began to notice that everybody gives her strange looks, and they'd try to avoid her when they were looking for something, and would ask me instead, even some of the ones that know english. I've known this girl for a while, she's one the quietest, sweetest girls I've ever met, and I completely enjoy being around her. However, my co-workers would often make jokes about her in spanish (just so she wouldn't understand--which I've been interpreting for her), and the customers would complain about her just because she's white. The co-worker who has been there the longest (only 3 months before we started) would often treat us as if she's the manager, when she's just another employee. She wouldn't even talk to Casey, because of the language barrier, and she's been wanting to learn english, isn't that ironic? Some of the customers have defended her in some ways, stating that there might be racism because she's white, and the rest of the employees are hispanic. I doubt there is, our managers (hispanics) are really warm people, and our secretary's white as well. However, I just feel bad whenever my coworkers would joke about her in the back room while she's up front registering, and I would have this incredible urge to just defend her right then and there. I would often be around her more than anybody else while we're on the clock, and that led the coworkers to believe that I'm in love--truth is, I'm not, I just know that Casey's a better person than them. Casey's not the type to show emotion, other than the positive ones, and has this "I don't care" mentality, while I see that as a brave attribute, I can't help but feel bad for her because of the treatment she gets from the coworkers and the customers themselves, and she's still working this job because she "doesn't care" about what others say. I envy her for her bravery, but I wish I could do more to help. We would always be around each other as often as we can, simply because we're the only ones who can talk and rely on each other on the job. We talk to each other more than anybody else because I can only feel comfortable talking to her, and vice versa. We're both transferring to a 4-year school this August, and I want these last 2 months to be better for her. How do I help her with this? I wanted to defend her against the customers, but even my spanish is limited, therefore I wouldn't know what words to say to them about how Casey's my friend, and I don't tolerate racism. Any suggestions?  more

Resolved Question: Relocating to Kodiak Alaska...questions for locals or CG members!?

The issue: Transportation! I have a small, 4 cylinder, front wheel drive car. My guy has a big truck that is 4 wheel drive and runs on diesel. We are unsure if we would need two vehicles. What do you think? If we only need one which one would be best? Should we just bring both? He seems to think he would need a 'block' warmer for his truck...is that common to have in this climate? The issue: a house! We are looking for a 2-3 bedroom house...not much interested in an apartment. I can't find any rentals and don't want to buy. I would like to have something set up prior to arriving so not to spend much money on temp lodging or inconveniencing people we know there. Any suggestions? Thank you for your suggestions and information! We are really excited about our journey to Kodiak!  more

Resolved Question: Is this considered defamation of character(slander)?

I am almost sure that it is, but i want to make sure before I make a complaint with the human rights commission. (Owners & manager have been notified, have done nothing.) A co-worker of mine was brought in to do AR/night audit work for the hotel I work at the front desk for. He is constantly sending emails to the owners and my manager making false accusations of me not completing the tasks that are given to me. This employee has referred to me as "a waste of space", and as a "seat warmer". We have gotten 3 new employees since he has been hired, and all 3 have approached me asking why it is that he doesn't 'like' me. Which, I have absolutely no answer to. There are also plenty of other employees that he acts this way towards, but for me it is the worst. Sometimes when we do a shift change, he makes it difficult if not impossible to do my job. I have been nothing but civil to him, but his attitude and that of the owners is making me not want to work here anymore. Unfortunately in the current economy, I wouldn't survive if I quit. Please any help and/or advice will help me so much. I am incredibly miserable :( He also talks about me to other employees. Who would be willing to say that it is untrue and inaccurate. I have already talked to my manager about the positive things i do for the company, so that has been established and recorded. I have tried to go the positive way more than once. This employee is NOT hired to audit the employees, i have asked this. He is ONLY hired to do Accounts Receivable and fix billing issues that the company has had in the last 2 years. Thats why he only works the night audit shift........  more

Resolved Question: Is my Betta fish sick? Am I doing everything right?

I have a male Halfmoon Betta that I just got Monday. I put him in his tank the next day on Tuesday. We put him in a different bowl first with half of the new fish tank water and some of his old water that he came in so he could adjust, then we put him into his new tank. The tank is one gallon, made espeically for a Betta. It's bottled water and it has a filter with a lightbulb. No heater, but my house temp is 72 degrees. I keep the lightbulb on from 6:00 AM to 10:30 PM and it's off the rest of the time. (does the lightbulb heat the water at all?) It's warm when you touch the lid to the tank. I feed him 2 pellets a day at 6:15 on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. On Wednesday he gets 2 pellets at 6:15 as usual, but I give him one more around 10:00. On Saturday's I fast him. For the first day he kind of just sat at the bottom. Now for the past two or three days he's been swimming back in forth at the front of the tank opening and closing her mouth about every 3 seconds. My family hasn't had the time to take me out to get fish tank accesories yet, but we're going probably this coming Sunday to get him stuff. He doesn't look sick? His fins are spread out and he isn't pale or anything. Every time I feed him he eats both pellets right up. Help please? I've never had a fish before... Am I doing everything right? Should I change anything? Yes, I know he needs fish accesories, but I'm getting them as soon as I can! Ps. I set up the tank the night before, then put the fish in around 15 hours later. I HAVE A FILTER!  more

Resolved Question: Is this part of my story good!? Please rate!?

It's copy righted so you cant steal it! i dont think anyone would anyways (: Chapter 19, enjoy!! Something made me jump straight up. The sound of twigs snapping made my heart pound against my chest. I was frozen stiff. I sat there with my knees still tucked up against my chest. What if its the pousky? I'm doomed! This is going to be my last time I ever see life! The noise got louder, and louder. Running towards me as fast as it could, making the ground lift up as it did. “ Marcia?” I heard a garsley voice shout out, in to the cold misty darkness. “Is-is that you!” I squinted into the darkness, trying to make out what the figure was. Everything was pitch black, the only thing that made it better to see was the full shinning moon. I saw a men shaped body stood in front of me. He had a hat on that sat on top of his head. His cloak was outlined by the moon. “It's me, Adeleio, you still remember me.. right?” I jumped up in exciment. “Adeleio!” I shouted happily. He placed his cold fingers on my warm lips. “Shh!” he hushed. “It can hear you!” I looked around the dark cold woods. It gave me the goosebumps thinking of what's out there, looking for me. The crickets still chirped and the owls still sang quietly. “Are-are you okay?” I asked. He turned and faced towards me. “Why wouldn't I be?” I gulped. “Because of-” “Adeline” he said finishing my sentence. I could hear his voice go shaky and weak. “Yeah, I'm fine” I heard him sniff. He sat down and leaned his head up against a tree. “Why? Why adeline, of all the werewolves out here! Why did it have to be Adeline!” I heard him weeping. I saw glistering wet tears roll down his face, that shinned with the full moon above us. I sat down next to him. “It's alright, she is in a better place now” I said patting his shoulder. He rubbed his eyes that where now red galore. “Come on, we better get home, before it comes for us” he said getting up on his two feet. I got up aswell, brushing the wet damp leaves of my legs. “Were abouts are we going?” I asked, as we travelled. I broke of the small twigs that got in my way. “My place” he replied. “It's the safest place for now” I felt like lying on the floor and falling asleep.. My fingers hurt and so did my stomace. My legs trembeled as we made our way to Adeleio's warm cosy home. I felt my dress drag on the forest floor, making the leaves and mud flick up agianst my leg. It wasent long until my dress got caught on a small twig that was wedged into the ground. I bent down and tried to rip it away. “Stupid dress” I muttered to myself. It was difficult to see in the dark woods. I finally riped it away from the clinging twig. “Adeleio?” I shouted qeuitly, sqinting. “Where are you?” I saw a small light not far from were I was standing. “Adeleio?” I whispered, walking towards it. “Is that you?” I covered my eyes with my arm, the light got brighter every time I got closer. “It's okay” I heard a voice say. “I'm not going to hurt you!” I looked up and saw Adelieo with a lanten in his hand. “My cottage is just over there. I thourght I lost you!” I covered my eyes with my arm, the light was to bright. “oh, sorry” he said dimming the lanten. He walked over to a pile of wood. “Can you please hold this for me” he asked shoving the laten in my face. “Sure” I replied walking over to him, holding the laten up high. He was piling some wood in his arms. “The cottage will be cold, I need to load up!” he said grabbing some more wood. I looked around admiring the place, the pile of wood was liad up agianst an old rusted out chicken shed. I moved the laten over to the side, trying to get a better look around the place. I noticed a little cottage, not far from were we where. “Is that your home?” I asked pointing to the small little house. “Yeah, that's it” he said grabbing some more wood. My fingers ached as I held the laten up high above my head. My arms began to tremble and hurt. “How long are you going to take?” I asked placing my other hand under my urmpit. The laten got heavier, my arms shook uncontrollably. I felt Adleio snatch it up. “Come on, its getting cold” he said making his way to the cottage. I rubbed my arm and bolted after him like a little kid running after the ice cream truck. is there anything i need to add or any thing that dusn't sound right? i dont care about the missspellings, just needed to write it down!
