You live in Norway! God, but I'd love to visit there. Is there much English spoken there ? I think that I would like 6 months of darkness (or twilight?).

Mmmmmm.

That is fascinating! I get so many things to look up and explore every time I visit here.

Well, I DO have reputation to maintain:)

I have tried to sort that out whole business in my head for years and have finally given up. I will never be a Beatles knower-of-anything (but I do prefer their later stuff).

Yes, and will for evermore (best vampires ever - boo on those kind, glittery ones).

I would expect nothing less from you NS. Many thanks, and good luck to you! I still believe it’s good work (if you can get it). Just don’t let any of the “games” get to you.:)

Well, they are males. Good lord but you folks are hilarious and smart, and there is no such thing as useless information, so I'm sure that your reply will come in handy.

I agree. Anything that frees a woman from what used the be the most dangerous job for females is something we can't afford to lose. As long as we have a choice we have some control.

OK, I can't even go there with the motorcycles. I don't want to offend anyone, but there is nothing I like about those things (why isn't their noise regulated??? Mufflers). So very glad he moved. Don't even know how I'd deal with that neighbor -probably wouldn't). I try very hard to be "considerate" as a nieghbor…

Goodness! it's comforting to know I'm not the only one. I often feel guilty for not "growing out of it." Blackout curtains are nice and probably a Swedish favorite (you know, many scholars attribute Ingmar Bergman's melancholy films to the 6/6 month thing. Fascinating. Also I've read there's quite a lot of suicide in…

Butting in here: I agree - The Lady Cady has been much appreciated during a hard week.

Thunderstorms. Every.Single.Time. Don't know why but I'm a slave to the weather, and a storm? Bliss. Dumb bro flicks. I bet that's bad:) will avoid. Oh, and the Apocalypse issue? I'm grateful to see someone bring that up. I've rather lost the knack now, but there was a time when, if I gave some time to it, I was able…

That was a fascinating reply. Keep talking on the regular here please (I have probably just missed you. My bad; but now- my good).

Well, that most likely explains the problems you're having with sleep. Just don't worry about the peri- menopause yet. Thanks for the info; never heard of that but will certainly look into it now. Love the education I'm getting here!

Can't resist. Major benefit? I get to talk and laugh with gals!!! This is new for me. Kinda sad, but the joy more than makes up for any regrets.

My humble opinion, but you are very very GOOD. And any Buffy fan is a plus.

Thanks. Had one of those "serious" moments. This isn't the greatest "feminist" site on the web (and it doesn't claim to be), but it sure is fun. Most fun I've had in a long while.

Oh my, do I sound that pathetic? I really just asked for giggles. Wait. Ignore the question: I lost track of this thread's theme. I see what you're saying. Good advice. How's that for some stream-of -consciousness nonsense? Apologies.

I’m just play’in with ya! Seriously, not seriousness.
