I hope everyone is safe and having a good end of the week.
Full Version: Thursday, not quite Friday
I guess I'll start the Thursday post even though I don't post regularly. Yesterday was my last day of classes so today is my first "study day".
I hope everyone is safe and having a good end of the week.

Yay, Noura! I hope you get it all ironed out soon.
I'm ready for the weekend, too. I have been having nightmares the past couple of nights, so I haven't been sleeping well. Amed thinks it's because we've been eating so late at night. Their superstition is that when you go to bed with a semi-full stomach, it causes nightmares. I've never heard that one before, but I do hate eating so late, so I am going to try to fix dinner earlier tonight.
Has anyone heard anything from Jean? I am anxious to hear if she's had any news on Mohammed's visa.
Have a good day everyone!

Happy Thursday I have the day off and I'm all curled up on the couch under a blanket.
Noura, thats good news!
That little black bar reminds me of two things.....Glamour magazine, the Do's and Dont's of fashion....and also used over butt cracks and full frontal nudity.
Hope you all have a great day!

Amal, I think you have your very own thread now about your "spoiler" topic,
This week I had two options: Finish all my work or quit my job so I woul dnot have to show up again. I managed last night to finish everything so today I am going into work . Of course I missed all the news on VJ
Noura: I'm staying tuned in! Woo-hoo Can;t wait to hear the good news.
I think we are all enjoying this spoiler tool way too much

I am getting thrown by the spoiler . . . I keep wondering "what is that black bar??"
Its snowing like crazy here. I can't even see the bridge over the river... and its right next to the window.
Funny story: I've got a pretty nasty headcold and am driving to work on the freeway at 6 am all stoned on cold meds and my head feels more like I borrowed it from someone else. I'm doing 75 in a 65 because here if you don't you become an involuntary speed bump. A HUGE SUV roars up behind me, headlights blazing into the rear view mirror and I'm completely blinded. This is a very very big pet peeve of mine. I don't think SUV drivers realize that the position of their headlights with respect to a lower riding car infront of them aims straight into the mirror. Anyway... I flick the mirror dimmer, grumbling. I'm blinking and see nothing but spots and his lights are still in my side mirrors and he's so close to my bumper its pathetic. Well, I was annoyed. Really annoyed. So he begins to pull around me finally and I extend my middle finger. IT WAS A COP. I am stupid. The End.

That little switch on your rear view mirror that tips its upwards so you can still see out the back at night, but the lights are not shining directly in the mirror....Doesn;t Jesus have one of those?

Yes I have heard that for years. We were never allowed to eat within 3 hours of going to bed when I was growing up, for that reason. It's also terrible for your digestion, as when you sleep everything slows down...so the food just kind of sludges along, if it doesn't stop

I don't think I've ever been bothered by lights behind me and felt the need for a dimmer. But now that I know it exists, I probably will.
or u could have an automatic dimmer like my car

I'm glad you two live waaaayyyy over there.
But then like you said, maybe you just aren't sensitive to the light like others, so you wouldn't have the need to look for it...however, I go with my former theory....
Wow Laura you have an electric one and I don't even know if I have one? I'm almost peeing my pants to go out to the garage and see!

I've always had problems with lights at night . . . sometimes it is worse than others . . . probably when allergies and dry eyes bother me the most. Lasik surgery can make it worse . . . contacts can make it worse . . . I prefer not to drive at night but we have such well lighted streets around here that it is usually not a problem.

you all have me laughing so hard at the "light dimmer" thingy.... I thought everybody knew about it....but then after I thought about it..I only knew about it because my dad used to gripe about cars behind him and my mom would always flip the thingy up for him just to shut him up. now...the whole automatic dimmer thing...that has me baffled!

CB- I see you started a thread this week! Good for you!
Well don't worry! I'm ok. I'm here. I just had a super busy morning. I was doing all this resume stuff for Adil. And applying to two jobs I saw for him on-line. Then my mother finally called to tell me she was here in town. She will be at my house tomorrow night for about a week, and hopefully not more. Well UPS failed to deliver my package again. Found out that they did deliver it yesterday, but one of my co-workers told them no one was here with that name. Go figure! Stupid people! Anyway, they are delivering it tomorrow. Well I have some last minute stuff to do around the office. Hope you all have a good night. If anyone has Doodles cell # can you please PM me with it? I got her PM a little bit ago and fear that if she isn't able to check here PM we may not be able to meet up. Thanks! Hope all is well with everyone! Take care.
