Loanlady,
not thinking ahead can create a slippery slope, for sure.

Tanoo,

Quirky
You're not the only one!  I know I've slipped more than once and wrote something directly in line with what I had been bitching about just a short time before.  Don't get too down on yourself!

Oh Q I have that funny sense of humor and sometimes "blag" or was it " blurg"  something that I didn't fully think ten steps ahead. Then there I am in the manhole with the gas company man wondering what chick would fall in there with the big yellow sign.But then thats one of the great qualities of this medium is being able to type as quickly as my mouth can go and not editing much. We all need to be thicker skinned and easy to forgive and forget. Carry on Quirkyone

Oh yes, I do know what you mean. I take Blogit breaks for this same reason to reclimb those stairs and refocus my writing & interactive energies. Forgive the pretenders yes, then for sanity's sake turn a blind eye.

Dear Quirky, I look beyond stories and words when I need to, and this time... I felt that need. Voyager9940

renigade,
That is something I know better than to even THINK that I am...human nature precludes the ability to be perfect...

Merry,
Noooooooooo, that would negate the benefits of the massage, what with all the noise kids make. I promised Rocky extra kibble and he said he'd keep them entertained and maybe even teach them how to catch gophers. That would be all right?

Voyager,
You obviously haven't read any of my BABY QUIRKY stories or you wouldn't ever call me mature...lol.

Quirkey--Glad to see you're not perfect, after all. ; - )

Well Quirk,
it's either a baby sitter or I bring 'em with me!

Merry--Babysitter?? When did that come into the deal?? Okay, I'll send Rocky...here kitty kitty....noooooo, come back here you little brat!

I saw that, but I chose the high road, lol.

OK Quirky it's a deal,
as soon as you send over that babysitter!

roofpig--meatballs, lol. I might just call you that (endearingly of course) from now on. And Quirk-a-licious makes me miss Hollee!!!

I'm sorry, Quirky.   I got mixed up somehow and addressed your comment to someone else.

Merry...massage right now, please. And don't stop until I say to, which will be...oh...sometime tomorrow??

Hi Gypsy! Days getting off to a slow start but not too bad. Feel better now.

Wow, I didn't even know you wrote that previous post.  It made me laugh.  Mostly because you said a lot of what I really wanted to but didn't have the meatballs to do.

No apology necessary, Quirk-a-licious.  :-D

MerryAnne - I guess its better to be a "pot stirrer" than a "pot sticker".

posted by TAPS. on February 17, 2005 at 9:59 AM | link to this | reply

Not to worry Quirky
I think that we have all done that at least once. (For me you may need to add a few zeros to that...) In the meantime I say lets move on. When did you want that massage? :)

Quirky..
It happens. I just decided to let bygones be bygones and go on my merry way. So, how's your day?
