Guest guest Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 a B., Ok, darlin', here goes, but I haven't got anything that good. The last stupid thing I did was to call the newspaper circulation desk to complain that I hadn't gotten my Thursday edition (I take weekends, which have now been stretched by the paper to a Thursday-Sunday deal.), only to learn from the operator that I was calling on a Wednesday. This would have been an acceptable error if it weren't for the fact that I have now done this three weeks in a row. I am sure that the staff at the paper are making me the hot topic of Wednesday morning conversations. Ok, NEXT! Hugs, MM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 a, that's pretty funny! :-D I have one, well, *I* personally didn't do the trick, but I am responsible... My daughters were probably 3 at the time and both suffer from sinus/ear problems, and have since they were maybe 5 months old. So one day my mom picked us up to go shopping and Kris was sneezing and sniffling so my mom runs in the drug store and got some kiddie decongestant. I put it in the little dosing cup and handed it back to Kris in the back seat and said "Here hunny, take this for your nose".......... What does she do? Holds it up to her nose and tries to "TAKE" it THAT way!!!! hahahaha Trying not to laugh I said "Wait, it's FOR your nose, you take it in your mouth!!" My mom and I couldn't stop laughing, but she was like "You said it was for my nose!!" I should have realized she wouldn't have gotten it, I just wasn't thinking.... So a, you may get to laugh yourself silly about your earplugs years from now ;-)Take care!Chell Lupies Stupid Human Tricks Have you ever said or done something that was so stupid that you had to find something to blame it on so you chose to blame Lupus or Fibromyalgia or whatever else ails you? I know I have and am willing to tell if you are. So friends, don't fail me. I expect to laugh myself silly for the next few days. I need a boost. Many of you have heard my sad story with the "Happy Ending." I had gone longer than my usual forever without anything I could really brag about as having been called sleep. I was literally dragging myself and undoubtedly from what happened, just barely capable of thought. Those who sleep as poorly as I do learn early on in life how to sleep wearing earplugs and not pay attention to them. Sound bothers me so much anyway that I wear earplugs a lot. So - I am holding my night time pills in one hand and my earplugs in the other hand. I picked up my glass of water and - - - - YEP - - - - I swallowed down those earplugs slicker than slick. Then the wait was on to see, "would they or would they not come out in the end?" I am very pleased to say this story does have a happy ending and no, I no longer use that particular pair of earplugs. OK GALS and GUYS - you have heard my Lupies Stupid Human Trick now it is time to hear yours. HEY BRENDA - this should be easy for you.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 Hi a B, I remember the thing with the ear plugs.......I had just joined the group. As I remember , You and your ear plugs were the `Butt' of many jokes......untill Ardie topped it with her `Strawberry Marijuana Plants!!' As I live alone, and am not around other people much .......I think I tend to overlook a lot of my eccentric behavior as normal. I do , however have a very colorful,and convincing `Dream-life'.......I often wake up very upset, happy , excited, angry, or downright confused over the very` real to me ' dreams I have had during the night........The most common one that I have recurring over and over is that My dogs,` Bear', and `Trouble' .....Who are no longer with me.......are waiting for me to take them for a `bicycle'....Let me `Splain'........ Before I was diagnosed with Lupus I used to have 2 wonderful big mutts. I would take them every morning at the crack of dawn, on a leash for two.....tied to my bicicle handlebars for a run around the block a couple of times. I actually feel their presence as I awake,and try to jump out of bed, before the `owwies' hit me,and I remember who and where I am now !!..........So different from that former me. Of course there are the times that I order food from a drive-thru, and forget to stop ,and pick it up at the next window, and am too embarrassed to go back for it.......And how many of you go to the drive-thru car washes.....and forget that when the washer thingies start to move down along the car that you are going to get the feeling that you are rolling , and stomp on the brakes in a panic !! Then of course I am forever misplacing things keys, purse, shoes,t.v.remote, and have you ever noticed that you always find them in the last place you look ?? Lupies Stupid Human Tricks Have you ever said or done something that was so stupid that you had to find something to blame it on so you chose to blame Lupus or Fibromyalgia or whatever else ails you?

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 Okay I am going to tell my friend who is a retired pastor's story first, then one of mine okay? He preached our sermon about two weeks ago. He doesn't do this often as he is retired. He was SOOO nervous and is just the kindest man in the world. But he is a Baptist preaher so they can be stuffy. Anyway he started preaching and the first sentence out of his mouth was SUPPOSED to be that we are all living ORGANISMS. Trust me, that is NOT the word that came out! Even the choir in the loft behind him was cracking up laughing! I was worried for him for a moment, but he recovered well and I just about fell off the pew. Anyway, that' s my story. a C Have you ever said or done something that was so stupid that you had to find something to blame it on so you chose to blame Lupus or Fibromyalgia or whatever else ails you?
