Roll Call 96

Decaf for the win! Can drink as much as you like then...

The only reason for me to drink coffee is for the caffeine.

Angelique - Hope you had a good birthday, but sorry that they didn't sing to you. That was mean

I have a 7½yo MacBook Pro and I've loved it the entire time I've had it. But the battery is on its way out and the trackpad doesn't click properly anymore unless you do it in one tiny spot, so it's a bit temperamental. I was told that no one has the parts for it that old anymore, which is really sad. I don't want a new one because they are ridiculously expensive and they took away the DVD drive and I use it a lot to watch DVDs. I know that I could get a separate DVD player to link to it, but I think that's a really inconvenient idea.

But I can't go back to windows - I tried to use my Mum's brand new laptop the other day and wanted to throw it against the wall after 5 mins, and her one before that was always full of viruses despite antivirus software, so even though the cost is much better, I just don't think they last as long without issues. My MacBook Pro has been absolutely problem-free until the last year, and it's still perfectly useable...so I don't really know what to do :/

I can sense it too, but it's always dark for me

Wrt the sz diagnosis: if that explanation adds value to your life in some way by providing an explanation and/or help for your experiences, then it's worth going along with. But only you can decide if it resonates with you and adds meaning to your life

I'm sorry that you lost all of those photos

I just spent a fortune on walking boots, walking socks and waterproof trousers for the nature/walking group I just joined. Our first walk is next week, as well as a canal barge trip, which I'm really looking forward to as I canal barges. I don't mind walking for miles, but I have to be warm/dry and not be in pain with blisters, so hopefully the cost will be worth it. And I had a rebate from my electric company today (woohoo!) so that more than covered the cost

And I have spent the day to myself with the dog and have the night at my flat tonight to look forward to Going out for a meal with my family in a bit too, so a good day

Hope everyone else has had a good day too

*Willow*

happy birthday, angelique

I need a new laptop for work. My computer is too slow. It's fine for what I do but I'd like it to be faster. Programs take forever to open. It'll have to wait though because I have a bunch of other stuff I want/need more. I wish money grew on trees.

Thank you!

i am possibly facing homeless at this point...
my parents told me that they are tired of "supporting" me... they want me to be "independent" because i was complaining that they never give me the chance to live my own life...

my mom went through my texts and i was really pissed off because it was a major violation of my privacy and i felt really upset when she did that, then she found out that i was flirting with this guy and hinting at the idea that me and him would have sex and she freaked out, called me a slut and said that i needed to have sex only after marriage. but i dont want to get married and she thinks that means i am going to hell......

so now, my parents (mostly my dad) decided that i am not going to live with them anymore and that i need to find my own place before our house sells or i will be homeless.

Im so sorry kori

Just left the pdocs office and then the pharmacy. She changed me from Abilify Maintena to Invega, my Ambien to Lunesta, and added Propranolol for the tremors. However my insurance is making get prior authorization for my Invega so I have to wait 3 - 7 business days they said. So there is that.

Oh kori I'm so sorry hopefully you will find a nice place soon. That is if your parents aren't bluffing.
Sorry she went through your texts. That's such a violation

I hate insurance companies. It wouldn't be prescribed if we didn't need it.

I agree, nothing has changed except maybe me. But the eclipse is changing a lot of things in my life. Oh well.

I've wanted a wireless speaker for years now. My mail carrier had other ideas. Hope you enjoy yours!

What did the mail carrier do? Freak cause it had a battery in it?

I love it so far! Much better than listening to loudspeakers on my phone or laptop in the bedroom.

Earlier freaked me out a little...I kept hearing someone in the apartment. Not like tenants above or below us, but *IN* my apartment. No one was though.

Oh, that sucks. I lost my pictures of my cat after having them all put on a blank CD. Now I don't know where that box is.

My first computer, I had a basic account with a Unix or Linux ISP. In fact, I still have my account. And my web site (astrology). I let my poor website kind of die, and haven't been able to check any of the mail since 2012. I'll have to delete all the email. Who knows what I might be losing. But there are probably thousands of emails, most of it spam.

My husband and my son have the Bose Bluetooth speakers. They love them. It's so convenient.

Be careful, newtus. I read that even if you buy an unlocked iPhone, it will be locked to the carrier whose sim is the first installed sim. So, make sure you're happy with your carrier.

Hi, Willow! Thank you! It was worse than that, though. It wasn't to sing Happy birthday, it was just to get the smokers to say it. But they didn't. They sort of glanced around, or looked down at the ground. Just lovely. It's a sign of things to come for me.

I am. Ive been with my carrier for over 10 years.

I have a Marshall amp bluetooth speaker. It has great bass. They fashioned it after guitar amps and you know how loud those things are at concerts!

Thank you!

Oh no. Maybe they'll change their minds. But reading your private messages is pretty disrespectful of your privacy.

Did she say why she was making those changes? Having to wait for prescriptions is not fun. I hope you'll have good luck with the changes.
