Thanks Inzane! Thanks Livi! [hug]

I've been trying my hardest to force myself to drive, but lately I've been too scared. D:

Oh, so Sarah is older than me. :) I really like that idea of having a security item in the car with me. It usually helps me to listen to music when I drive, but I know I won't be able to do that for the test. x.x

@Livi

I can understand that. You know yourself better than anyone else knows you. :)

Sara's blessed. Issy is the world's best mother.

Ava: Sometimes forcing yourself to do something when you're so scared, can only make it worse in the bigger picture. There is nothing wrong at all with not having your license!! [hug] Don't let society tell you otherwise!!

I didn't even go out for my birthday, we stayed in - Al and the girls (well... it was mostly Al) made me a small cake, and we didn't make a huge deal out of it. I got lost of snuggles and cuddles and kisses and love from my two precious girls and my hubs, we just had a low key day together. And that was totally completely fine with me.

Is that a license in flabotamy. Legalized vampire???

I really do want my license.

But I am starting to feel like my mom pressuring me is what has been making me "want" my license. According to her, people can't be independent if they can't drive. I told her even if I could drive, I wouldn't have my own car, I'd still be dependent on someone to provide a car for me, but she still seems to think I'd be "more" independent if I could at least drive.

I mean, a part of me has always dreamed of owning my own car and riding around really cool. So I think a part of me wants to get my license for myself, but it doesn't help that my mom is pressuring me and telling me I can't be independent without a license.

You need to get it only if you want to get it - do it for you. Not for your mom, or not for anyone else. [hug]
I didn't drive for years - and even though I do have my license. I absolutely hate driving.

If you aren't comfortable driving, tell her as such. Don't get it just because she's pressuring you to get it. [hug]
Don't let her make you change who you are just because of her ideas.

My birthday this year is the day after Thanksgiving. Now usually I go into downtown Ann Arbor every year day after Thanksgiving with my sister from another mister. This year, since it's actually my birthday, I am inviting my friends to come spend the day with me. I am already up to three friends total saying they'll go. I am so excited. It's going to be epic. Going to get my free stuff and hang out with friends. What could be better?

I boycott Black Friday. It's not something that I feel that I can support and honestly businesses that start on Thanksgiving and force their employees to come in on a holiday that should be spent with family...
I'd so much rather sleep in and spend the day eating left overs and not risking being killed by a stampeeding mob of people looking to get deals. :/ [sweat]

I boycott it as well by spending my day in downtown Ann Arbor getting my free birthday stuffs.

I don't really care about Black Friday.
I used to go Black Friday shopping years ago, but then I realized all the things I actually wanted were never on sale, so I stopped going.

i shall lurk in here now too Ava. I've been seeing a couple of your posts around and i'm intrigued. Juicing and such things that you've been mentioning. I am not going all natural. But I am trying to make most foods from scratch cause i seem to have a major problem with perservatives. I'm willing to listen to suggestions even if I don't actually follow them ^^;;

I am really natural. x.x Everything I do...
It's FOR MOTHER EARTH.

I'm really weird. xD I don't want anyone to change their habits for me, but I would like people to change because they feel it's best for them and the earth. :D

I have to update my first page products list, I've since tried out some new organic and natural products that I think people may be really interested in. :D

well i'm always trying out new things. i started out a compost pile recently to and am hoping to get more than just a couple veggies and herbs in my garden.

That's a good place to start. :)

I think people should feel comfortable in the changes they make to be more healthy.

the cups? dare i ask how they work? I'm gonna guess right now that they're not for me, cause i hate pads. But still. i'm curious.

It was mentioned on the front page right?

was it another thread i read it? wow. I can't keep anything straight these days.

I should post more information on it on the front page for interested people. :o

That would be a nice thing. just a warning label for the squeamish guys that might come around :P *points at own hubby* hehe

I don't go because of the crowds/violence.

You don't go to menstration cups?

Lmao! No...she doesnt go Black Friday shopping!
I think the topic of menstual cups was being discussed in the Humor Posters Trash Can....or a title that is close to that.
I had been following the discussion and totally forgot that the thread i was reading wasnt THIS one! Lol!

Lol..... And here it is again.

well ythat makes much more sense. i don't either :D
