HippieChick58 comments on Dec 4, 2018:

I agree on Fucking Christmas Shoes! I hate loathe despise that song, it is so contrived. In my area 104.5 switches to all christmas music the Friday before Thanksgiving, so I switch to 99.9 until they piss me off about March and I go back to 104.5.

HippieChick58 comments on Dec 4, 2018:

Good for you!! I had a conversation with a lady at the gym today. She was not fazed by my Agnotic.com shirt, and she actually compimented me. Most days I don't really "talk" with anyone at the gym, except for good morning and goodbye from the desk people. It's actually kinda cool.

I want to go to Cuenca, Ecuador. It is close to the Equator, you experience all four seasons in one day. It is in a very beautiful area, and last time I checked was very friendly to immigrants (AKA expatriates). I have a FB friend from England who taught English in China for several years. He eventually married a Chinese woman. He is older than I am and has an adorable very young daughter, and they are all in the UK.

Is this a semblance of you? [youtube.com]

HippieChick58 comments on Dec 4, 2018:

I have lots of acquaintances, and a few friends. I feel like I'm in a good place, however; I tend to be an introvert so I'm happy with just me!! And my online community.

I would. Would you?

HippieChick58 comments on Dec 4, 2018:

Iowa or South Dakota. But as I won't move unless the kids/grandkids do, the person of interest has to be willing to move to Omaha, and I don't see that happening.

HippieChick58 comments on Dec 4, 2018:

I am sure I ate a crap ton of that! Never again, pure sugar which I avoid. Now if it was chocolate...

So, now that I see many of you celebrate, what are your traditions?

HippieChick58 comments on Dec 4, 2018:

I don't decorate. I live alone and the grand babies are too young to notice. My sister is trying to talk me into making a quilted Xmas wallhanging. Yeah, I might do that if I find the time. For next year, no time to make it this year.

Okay boys and girls, Aunt Mary needs some advice.

HippieChick58 comments on Dec 3, 2018:

The old saying is "when he tells you who he is, believe him." He's just told you that he isn't going to be supportive of things you want. He could be with you, and chooses not to, he doesn't have any other committments, but he "doesn't do holidays?". He isn't making you a priority. I'm sorry, Mary. I know how hard and crappy this is. Please don't make a priority of someone who makes you an option.

Family violence was the norm. My dad beat us with a strap. I have a scar on the bridge of my nose from standing in the front seat when my dad's car was hit. My nose hit the dash. My mom had my little sister on her lap. After that I was banished to the back seat with the boys.

Mens contempt for women in general.

HippieChick58 comments on Dec 2, 2018:

When I encounter sexism I generally pass by and keep moving. I don't have time and it isn't my place to teach them better. It's like teaching a pig to sing. It annoys the pig and wastes your time.

It is snowing out here in the land of nowhere my cubs were having some tree time.

HippieChick58 comments on Dec 2, 2018:

You keep that snow down there! I just had some neighbor kids shovel 4 or more inches of snow off my driveway and sidewalks. I've had enough! However, I remember as a kid I loved to play in it, and my daughter sent pictures of my granddaughter playing in the snow. To be young!

just noticed a weirdness with the website on my laptop (google chrome).

HippieChick58 comments on Dec 2, 2018:

I was having trouble with "liking" today as well. It didn't last for long. I am using a laptop with Google Chrome as well.

Nope. No airbags, seat belts, or other newfangled safety features. And likely no AC which is needed where I live unless it is winter.

Well, a month after getting married, our cats are getting along surprisingly well.

HippieChick58 comments on Dec 1, 2018:

Sweet kitties! I have two girls about 8 months apart in age that I got 10 months apart. They are not pair bonded by any means, but they play well and the older cat will groom the younger cat several times a day. And then they start fighting and getting all messed up again. They amuse me. There are no blood curdling yowls and no blood, so I figure all is good.

HippieChick58 comments on Nov 29, 2018:

I got not only a flu shot, but pneumonia as well. Since I am frequently around youngsters I figure my extra protection may be good for them as well. I could not get a shingles vaccine, the MD office was out and suggested I call my insurance company to see if it was covered. FFS, I don't want to jump through extra hurdles.

I’ve been getting calls from Kingston, Jamaica.

HippieChick58 comments on Nov 29, 2018:

My policy is that if I don't know the caller the call will go to VM. If they don't leave a VM I will never call them back. If they leave a VM I will look at it. I got another call today telling me I will be arrested. Yeah right. Another blocked call. That would never be left as VM by any law enforcement in the US, and aside from bashing Drumpf I haven't done anything. The scammers are proliferating.

HippieChick58 comments on Nov 29, 2018:

My heart cat was a cuddler, from the beginning she wanted under the covers with me, and full body contact. Heart cat passed on about 2 years ago. Current cats are content on top of the blankets leaning on me, but not all night. One of them will go under a blanket to play, but on her terms and not consistently. They are improving, one might end up being a cuddle kitty given time.
