  • Loops, yeah that would be the looks of it. I don't know that it would hurt him completely but I know he did really want to get his masters. The designer on the project brought him in to meet her boss and she already offered him a job as an engineer at their firm when he graduates too. Ugh. Haha I am being so stubborn about it but really it is one of the last cities I would want to move to. I would rather live in the town that J's school is in, and that's saying something because I hate that city lol.

  • Musu - would you consider the suburbs? Some of them are like night and day compared to the city (i.e. they have that "small town" feel with lots of shops and such), and more than a few have a pretty easy commute into the city by train.

    I'm not trying to pressure you, just thinking of compromises.
  • I think the Kindle free book list is overwhelmingly bad vampire smut and christian propoganda.  I don't even bother to look at it more than every other month anymore.

    <div>Which is ironic, given the smashing success of Twilight and 50 Shades. </div>
  • Haha.. Any - I haven't read either of those books/series.
  • I know there are some nice suburbs wrigs but I guess I just don't really want to be THIS close to home without being in daily visiting distance to family. If that makes sense. When we were talking about moving south it was different for some reason. I know my logic might be silly. And for all I know he wont want to take the jobs since he does love it here so much. I'm worrying myself into a tizzy, I think it's time for bed. Good night all!

    I get it. :) I'd rather move FAR away than just a wee bit too far away. Sleep well.
  • Me neither Holly.  The only vampire/supernatural book I've read that I really enjoyed was "A discovery of witches"  and "Shadow of Night" which are the first two in a trilogy.
  • I heard a very emphatic description of how bad the first Twilight book was and thought that there was no way a book could be that bad.  So I read it.  And it was worse.

    Then I heard the second book was even worse, and didn't see how that was possible.  So I read it.  It was, in fact, worse.

    I heard that the THIRD book was even worse than the second, and didn't believe THAT was possible.  So I read it.  AND IT WAS.

    THEN I heard that the FOURTH WAS EVEN WORSE THAN THE THIRD.  And I believed it.  And was not that much of a sucker for punishment.

    <div>And I never thought I'd say this, but 50 Shades, is worse than all of them. I seriously thought I'd never encounter a book worse than Twilight, but there it was.</div>

    <div>Oh my heavens, Adamar. SO very sorry. I'm assuming very sudden/unexpectedly?</div>
    image
  • Oh no.. Adamar - I'm so sorry.  Had they been together long?
  • Ok so I lied and I'm up for a few more Minutes. Mainly to say that Adamar, that is so awful and I wish I could give you a huge hug.
    image
  • They've been together since I was in high school.  It was unexpected.  The police made it sound like she fell and and maybe hit her head, but they're going to do an autopsy, too.  She was manic depressive and on a bunch of meds, so I guess we won't know for sure until the autopsy.  She never would have left her dog, though.  I feel so bad for my dad.  He keeps blaming himself.

    Adamar, I wish I could find words to make you feel better. I know you said you want to talk it out, so by all means, do so. :)

    ETA: If you want/need to, of course.
  • I'm glad so many people were still up tonight.

    <div>I'm sure the shock is just indescribable. How old?</div>
    image
  • She was in her fifties.  I'm not sure exactly how old she was.  I think she tried to commit suicide once before, so that's what we thought had happened at first.  It was actually a little bit easier for my dad now that it looks like it was an accident.  Still awful, but not as bad as her killing herself.  He says she never would have left her dog like that.  Good thing I left my number with the idiot cops.  They didn't bother getting any of our information before we left, and they ended up calling me to see if we had  taken the dog and to find out more about her family.

  • I hope that it was just an accident, especially for your dad's sake. I can't imagine how hard this must be for him.

    Did she have any kids of her own?
  • No kids of her own.  She has a brother in another state and two nieces in town.  I'm not sure how old the nieces are, but I'm pretty sure they're adults.
