Interesting. Both my siblings are pigs, but they were born in different years. That seems rare!

Is this just for fun or is there a prize? If there is no prize, why don't we just share the answers here in the forum?

B5 please

14 please

This is the quote I put on our wedding programs (my husband is a scientist):

Wierd. I meant to use the thumbs up icon, not the rotfl one.

Hooray! I got them. Thank you both so much!

My friends have been really loving to me this year. I moved across the country and so I have been pretty sad occasionally -- but they still talk long distance on the phone to me as long as I want. I wish I could buy them all flowers or a nice V-Day lunch.

It looks like adventure week! 8) I thought for sure though that it would be Winter Olympics week.

How do people get those items earlier. Are they cheating?

Hi Luka,

How are your art projects and cooking going? I have been working on my cooking skills as a resolution this year and am enjoying the results.

This is a lot of goals! Are you making progress on any of them? I think the most important one is probably your grades. I am a very forgetful person too, and I am almost 30, so unfortunately it doesn't get better sometimes. Some things that have helped me: using gmail calender alerts, also, having a basket by the door where I always keep my wallet, keys, and mobile. I used to lose those things every single day until I came up with the basket.

Personally I think it is easier to change #1 than #2 and losing weight is hard! How is it going? Also, most of my best friends are "strange."

Three goals seems like a lot. What if you just tried to focus on one at a time? Example: This week I will only read for 2 hours max. in one day. Next week I will only spend a total of x amount and I will get that amount in cash and only spend that for that week.

I love the Bay Area!

To you, next poster, I give a home-made dinner of risotto, pan-seared scallops and raspberry chocolate mousse for desert. The dinner is served in my cozy dining room with a white table cloth, a view through the window of snow falling gently outside in the moonlight, and red candles in silver candlestick holders.

Hi Hash,

Many colleges and workplaces will reimburse you for counseling sessions (if you are currently in college or are employed). Be sure to check out the counselor's credentials first and make sure they are GLBT friendly (some are not). I am suggesting counseling because for me, it was the only thing that helped with issues of acceptance. I suffered extreme rejection from my parents when I told them I didn't want to be Baptist anymore (my mother told me she wished I hadn't been born). My parents and I get along okay now. I am also a bi woman and it has been very difficult for me to talk about this with people. I have kept my relationships with women very private. Talking with a counselor about this has also been helpful to me to understand more about why I so often feel, as you say "freakish." Feeling unwanted or rejected can be extremely painful and can make you feel suicidal. It is important to know that other people have felt this way too and overcome it.

Thank you both. You are too helpful. Let me know if there is anything more I can do.

The kittens in the blankets are too adorable for words!

I think Valnetine's Day is stressful to people in relationships and not. People not in relationships feel bad for being single. People in relationships feel stressed about having to make the other person happy on V-Day, and living up to cultural expectations.

As for flowers, I have to say that even though I know they cost more this time of year, I really love them. My husband usually dones't remember that I like romance, but on Valentine's he always buys me flowers -- so I don't want that to stop, really. He usually buys a really fancy arrangement that I would not feel bold enough to buy just for myself, but as a gift I love it!

I used to have Rychu goldfish. They lived for 5 years, which is pretty good for goldfish. I was too sad when they died to get more. My husband is in a graduate program and he does not want a new puppy or kitty right now. Oh well. maybe in a few years when he is done . . . I want a kitty a lot. I like relaxed and fluffy cats that enjoy sitting in your lap.

:Oops: I apologize for creating a misunderstanding. How is the best way to contact an approved trade ref about ref-ing this trade for me?

Yes, I totally agree.

Who would you choose?

I have asked Tiddly Winks if she would ref our trade since I know her already. I am awaiting her reply.

Thank you Chay and Tweet40. I appreciate the kind offers.

Thanks, Kasijab. I am already learning so many new tips and tricks by reading the forums! I am excited about using all my new knowledge. And I thought I was a pretty smart PS player already!
