Are we all just sitting around reminiscing? Shall I fetch rocking chairs and chamomile tea?

I'm too new for that - this all happened before my time ... But I enjoy hearing about it

So after my free eating day yesterday, during which time I ate lasagna, pizza, and approximately my own body weight in cheese.... I feel like I just woke up from a night of debauchery . Now I have to go back home to the carrots and lettuce, and the carrots will be all, "Where were you yesterday?" and I'll be all like, "Out." and the carrots will be all like, "Is that... PIZZA on your breath?!" and I'll be all like, ".... no, you're imagining things." and the carrots will be all like, "GET OUT YOU CHEATING #$@)$@!!!!"


... now I'm afraid to go downstairs for breakfast. >.> Stupid judgmental carrots. <.<

If I were one of those who collect quotes from other mooters in my sig, I would so include this one

And carry through. If you eat them, they can't ask awkward questions.

Dear Mooters!

I have via a blogsite Im a member of created 54 images with witty words them fitted to the photograph.

Now to my question.

The size Ive chosed for most of is this: 640x480. Is it ok if I start a thread displaying them or would it be better to post them here now and then.

Glad to know.

Best GW

I'd personally suggest putting them in here from time to time, but that's just my suggestion.

54 images of such big dimensions is a bit much to post at the same time.

Why not just provide a link instead?
... which I see you already have done, in your sig.

I agree with Tessar.
And you could even give a link directly to the Images and Words-page, when you've posted one of them.

The slide show was not to my liking - for one thing the speed was not adjustable -and another - the pictures cannot be viewed in full screen.

So I will ponder if Im gonna post one at a time here.

Be back with my decision.

Whew!

Thanks to Tessar and his interesting internal battle with carrots, I made it all the way through my applesauce. I have to have some kind of distracting entertainment or else I don't always eat it all because I don't really like the taste.

Speaking of quotes in signatures, what thread kept screaming "Close me before I do more harm"? I might be interested in perusing that one.

I actually found that one once. Stumbled across it and went 'aha, so this is where it came from'.

Gah, I miss my pets. Maybe it's time to call them back in. I miss having fights with Nauti's octopus. *reserves a pillow for Aeran and some carrots for Bunnicula*

Midge, did you try the search function?

Val dropped that line when Ruinel was banned years ago. Some things are better left forgotten

Tessar that was actually pretty hilarious. Me, I'm doing my best, but I have decided that, in light of the fact that I am mortal and may one day have the chance to look back on my life and decide whether I have any regrets, I am going to start having homemade pizza much, much more often. But still eating fairly healthy.

Hooray for pizza!! That's what I love about my diet... the one day out of the week free-for-all .

Honestly I don't feel deprived, but the hardest part is that our house is filled with stuff that I shouldn't be eating like chips, sodas, ice cream, etc... Some day when I have my own house this will hopefully be somewhat easier since I'll just be buying the things that I plan to eat at the store instead of having to buy the fattening stuff that everyone else in my family wants .

*nods* I know what you mean. When I lived on my own I used to have so many fruits. But I already plan on asking a steamer for my birthday this year so I can use it when I move out again. Me <3 steamed veggies and rice.
