Stuff I learned today, in no particular order...
If I open a bag of sugar coated cashew nuts, I will eat the entire packet, it's impossible to stop before the end.
I am horrible as a Sims player. I kill them constantly, or lose them, as was the case with the Sim version of our family that Lil Miss P set up for me today. She left, with her brother, to stay the weekend with their Dad and called me later to see how I was doing. I had to explain that the Sim version of her had gone to school and never returned. "Oh!", she said. "That's never happened before!" I know, I'm a crap parent.
If I hear Bette Midler's "Wind Beneath my Wings" ,I will cry, no matter how hard I try not to, and no matter how badly the version is being sung.
If I hear Barbara Streisand's "Memories", it will take me to places I do not want to go.
It takes less than half a packet of cheese twists dunked in garlic dip to make me feel sick. Who knew?!
Drinking a bottle of chardonnay does not count as dinner, no matter how excellent the wine.
My oldest cat will sleep on the bottom shelf of a bookcase, despite having a squillion more comfortable options.
"Pushing Daisies" is the best thing to happen to TV in a long time. Despite the fact that stupid scheduling issues meant we had to jump from episode 1 to 3 because the controllers felt the viewers "wouldn't notice". Yeah, whatever, kissmyfuckingarsetwice!
Within a nano-second of changing my bed-linen (super king-size bed with white, Egyptian cotton linen), 3/4 of my cats will decide that my bed is the number one place to sleep, despite having ignored it in favour of other spots all week!April is fox-shagging season. (That's foxes wanting to make jiggy with other foxes - obviously!) The noise out on my street tonight is like a million babies screaming. How can anything that sounds that bad be good?!
I need to learn when to quit...

The SIMs thing sounds like fun. I'm thinking of all the evil possibilities...people that cut you off in traffic...bad hairstylists...MIL's... lol
I suck at SIMs and finally gave up. Garbage with flies always piled up and I was lost as to what to make them do.
P.S. I love the word 'shagging'
OH, and I'm not envious of you right now. Not one bit!
We have foxes on our bike path. Maybe I should swing by to see what they're up to.
BTW, I've noticed that a bag of anything is a single-serving size after I open it. I'd eat a pound of Doritos in a setting if I had any in the house (which is why I don't keep them). My will-power ends as soon as I leave the supermarket.
OK, what I've learned about SIMS.. cuz The Kid is addicted to it and makes me play too... I cannot play it without using the "crack" with which you can make an unlimited amount of money to use!!! I know... cheating... but fun!!!
i lost interest with the Sims after about 20 minutes... mostly cuz i caused them to live in sqaular and wouldn't let them use the bathroom.
Honeywine - Sims seems a bit complicated to me but, of course, my 12 year old makes is look so easy! ;o)
Donna - Shagging is a marvelous word huh? ;o)
Delmer - I've noticed that about your eating habits too! ;o)
DutchBitch - yeah Lil Miss P taught me that one - thank goodness! :o)
Diva - they are a messy bunch, aren't they?!
PUSHING DAISIES is amazing...my favorite show :).
I've caught pretty much every Sim I ever had on fire. I suck at it too!
So you KNOW about that cheat, are able to use it and still manage to kill the whole family? Wow! Respect, I mean, that takes real talent...
and LMAO @ Hilly!
'Ello Luv!
I do believe you've unwittingly started your "100 Things About Penelope" list. : )
Luv from across the Pond.
Hilly - after 2 episodes I am loving it too!!
My personal record for setting a Sim on fire was 5 minutes after I created it ;o)
DutchBitch - It's incredible...I know ;o) Thanks!
John - 'ello! I can't think of anything more boring than 100 things about me ;o)
Foxes? Man, we don't really have those in north texas. Hill country in central texas, yes, but not that many. I thought you meant like, hot chicks for a minute.
I will forgive you for the pushing daisies thing, much like I forgave Dave II for it. :-)
My nephew taught my sons how to turn all the SIMs gay (or whatever you call it where you live) and cause them to make out. They thought it was hilarious; I was, well concerned isn't quite the right word, but I thought it was wierd.
