Ah but that lovely feeling of finding money you'd put away safe ages ago and forgotten where it was is priceless.

Into the vet with the poor woof this morning. Woke up to find him gone and little pools of blood all over the bedroom this morning, gave me a heart attack. Poor thing was hiding under the bed, sad and sore.
He's a nasty little kidney infection but he'll be alright thank god. Though I've had the boyfriend chasing him around all day to get the piddle sample for the vet. Woof does not appriciate jars being stuck under him when he's doing his business :P

You're post reminded me of this.

My dad tends to go away a lot and always leaves money for my sister because 9/10 times she'll text him saying she has no money.

Instead of just leaving it somewhere he hides it and gives her clues on where to find it.

The latest one was 'Do you need money for Town? There might be money already in Town.'

It was in a dvd of the movie 'The Town'.

Bunch of weirdos.

there's always money in the banana stand!!!

My dad used to hide money all the time at home. Hed change hiding places a lot so there's been a couple of times there's been uproar cause he can't find it.

Luckily for him, I was always incredibly nosey and would always find it in "daddy type" hiding places. I had shark eyes as a child. Nothing got by me!

Reminds me of the time my brother's friend told him he had 20 grand in cash stashed under the bed at home for "emergencies" as he "doesn't trust" the bank. Bro asked what he'd do if the house went on fire.

"Ah", says the friend, all smug, like, "I'm way ahead of you there. It's wrapped in tinfoil."

A crowd of people dressed up as the blue man group at the fancy dress I was at.

I kept trying to get one of them to say 'I just blue myself' but they weren't willing to take the bate.

Speaking of money, the only money I ever keep on me is whatever is in my purse or my tin money box, feck all really.

My granny recently found an old birthday card from 2005 and there was €20 in it, she always says she never misses money, but yet, she didn't know there was €20 was in the card

He gets paid from one job in cash every week, the other job is quarterly into his account. He uses my card if he needs to buy stuff online and just puts the money onto the card. He doesn't go to the bank very often really, but it's quite near to where he works anyway so it's not awkward for him to pop in anyway. Bills are paid by direct debit from his accounts. How would it be a waste, a waste of what to go into the bank?

time lol, queuing to get something you can get in multiple locations around most towns.

And trying to get to a bank before closing hours which can be fairly impossible when the closest is ages away!

Also you can use a laser card and then the money is paid straight away with no bills and you can't spend more than you have. Its what I do!

Just got back from the dentist. It's not good news. My gums have an infection that needs medicated mouthwash to treat and I've to get two back teeth out- both on my right side, one on the bottom and one on the top. Also have to somehow or other russle up €75 for a much needed cleaning. Fortunately, I didn't get Dr. Josef Mengales- the dentist was patient and understanding with me but a little heavy handed with that little ice-pick shaped thingumabob whilst poking around inside my mouth. My gums are a little sore but it's nothing to write home about. Even so, I'm not looking forward to the extractions. I'm a nervous patient at the best of times and the sound of dental drills makes me hyperventilate. Still, I really hope they let me keep the extracted teeth this time. I want to see the little buggers that have been plaging me with pain!

Why?

My mother kept her removed gall stones in the kitchen for months.

Freaked me the hell out.

Yeah, that pick thing sounds/feels horrible. I always think, surely that's not good for teeth! The drill is horrid, and last time I was at the dentist I had to get a filling and there was some other drill that made my whole face vibrate (and not in the good way!). No pain or anything, it's just a disconcerting sensation!

My dentist is lovely though, it makes all the difference when it's someone who is able to reassure anxious patients. It's never going to be enjoyable, but the less stress the better

If I'd been suffering from something that caused me a lot of pain, I'd sure as hell be curious to actually see what was at fault. Does that make me a weirdo? :pac:

i dont get it either
the doc was trying to show me that stupid stick in my arm after she took it out after all the hassle i had with it
i was like yeah ok thanks lady dont care
(in a very polite manner of course :pac: )

Yeh sure have a look at it but to keep it in the kitchen for months? As some sort of memento?

Like if it was a bullet I could understand. But not f'in gall stones

I'm just weird like that. If I could, I'd make a set of earrings out of my teeth! I'm really into roadkill taxidermy and the shapes of cat skulls and such. My dream is to one day own a horned Billy Goat skull, bleached and cleaned 'til it's bone white and have it mounted over the fireplace if I should ever be fortunate enough to own my own house. I'm not a Satanist- I just love the strong imagery.

I need opinions...

You may remember my rant a couple of weeks ago about my "friends" who all went out for dinner without inviting me and then spent the next night (that I was at) talking all about it in front of me. Well we have this big whatsapp group and the suggestion came up to do it again (one girl asking another and then asking a second, all publicly) so I mentioned that I'd be interested too on the second mention of it. I was totally blanked. No reply except one of the lads saying "awkmomo". Am I overreacting by being upset and annoyed about this?

Not at all. They sound rude and ignorant to be honest. You don't organise a night out in front of other people who are part of your group and not invite them. It's bad enough leaving them out behind their back, then at least they've the excuse they didn't think of you. But to leave you out while you're sitting there with them is not on. They sound like dicks.

I don't think you are over-reacting. I think I would give them a good cooling for a while, and do more things with your other friends. Real friends don't behave like that.

What does that mean?

I don't think you're overreacting at all. If it were me I would barge in there and blatantly ask why they're excluding me from stuff.

Rude. Disrespectful. You aren't over reacting. :mad:

It means awkward moment.

And for the record MCR, I think that is really horrible. You're not over-reacting at all, I'd be so upset. *hugs*

"awkward moment". He's an intelligent guy with an incredibly annoying love of coming out with that kind of crap!

Thanks for the reassurance. I'm not really sure what to do but I'll think about it and see how I feel over the next few days.

I really wish that my college friends were around...
