  1. That would be it - thanks!
  2. My baby is from a breed rescue - he was in a kitty mill. There were 300 cats when he was rescued. Most died. This is an article about the woman who had him: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,216028,00.html This was the second time she was caught - the first was with my TiSan's group. He was very sick and scared when I got him. We've had him for 6 years now and its taken alot of work to get him to let me pet him (took right up with my husband, of course) but now he's my boy! Poor guy is 11 and only has 2 teeth left though. I hope he's around longer than most of my cats (13 years) You can see him in the background of this picture. Arianna Frances
  3. I'm reaching a blank here. A person, who works on behalf of a company or organization, acts on their behalf in government and tries to sway the lawmakers to pass laws on the behalf of the company or organization. What is that person job title? Jen Arianna Frances
  4. Its so sad people think baby showers suck. Its usually the only 'celebration' most moms-to-be get, and by the time it comes around they're usually miserable from pregnancy discomforts. My baby came too early so I didn't get a traditional one (people sent gifts and nice cards, but I would have liked the get together more... we didn't need 'stuff'), and even a year later I still miss not having that opportunity. Baby showers are supposed to be nice get togethers... not torture, and its not about themes either - its about the mix of people that shape the atmosphere. If you invite people who think they suck, it will suck. Jen Arianna Frances
  5. Agreed. I have mine at emigrantdirect also, at 5.05%. I believe its doing better than ING which only gives you 4.75% You could also put it in a money market account - I believe you have a week to get any money out of some of those. The only problem with that is that the interest rate rides the stock market - which right now would be a good thing, as the market is doing very well. The stock market has averaged 12% interest since the great depression. When I have the $25k saved up to cover emergencies, by next year, I will put it in a money market. Jen Arianna Frances
  6. That's the exact reason I didn't jump at Perris last time I was there. It scared the shit out of me as far as sheer number of aircraft, people and landing areas. But I love jumping at cross keys. But they have a big landing area... If you aren't feeling absolutely perfect about a jump, don't go. If you have any doubt its better to play it safe than sorry. Don't know why I'm missing skydiving so badly lately... I'd probably be scared shitless to just put on my rig again Arianna Frances
  7. Wow - I was just talking about him to my mother the other day. His son was my pediatrician. Very sad indeed Arianna Frances
  8. I'm so sorry to hear this - I'd be pissed too! I hope you have lots of good memories What vet did you take her to? Seriously... I recommend vets in the area for a cat rescue I work with and I want to tell them to stay away from that one! wow! Arianna Frances
  9. Can't offer any advice or anything... but did want to say that your 'slang' is hilarious to read. I gotta get to the UK to hear it first hand from the 'locals' some day. Jen Arianna Frances
  10. Do you know where the focus of the seizures is? Only certain types are triggered by lights. Arianna Frances
  11. For those rejected by ins. companies the only way to get ins. would be through an employer - but you may even get rejected then, as some state's allow a 'preexisting condition' clause. You may not be able to avoid a high risk plan at this point. I ran into this problem and was only able to get it through my work. Arianna Frances
  12. Good answer. Frankly who cares if someone stops jumping - you don't live their life or walk in their shoes - people have different reasons for the decisions they make and as long as it doesn't affect you, who cares? Arianna Frances
  13. heh... What was too bad was it had the potential to be really good. I read somewhere that the studio took the production out of the director/writers hands and cut a bunch of stuff out of it and thats why it was so bad... but I think what I saw last night was the directors cut and it was still pretty bad. Arianna Frances
  14. You're kidding right? She's a woman who's lost her child (along with everything else). He's a child and he's going to be killed. Pretty much 'splains it
  15. I watched this last night and still this morning I'm trying to understand what I watched. I thought the fight sequences were cool but didn't understand why she cared so much for Six... Anyone else seen it? What did you think? Jen Arianna Frances
  16. need a chair too though Arianna Frances
  17. That was great. Gee, Derek is all famous now Arianna Frances
  18. I hope this isn't considered soliciting, but my coworker just bought round trip tix to Ft. Lauderdale from Providence, RI for $16... Apparantly spirit airlines is having a big sale today - I thought the snowbirds would enjoy this info: http://www.spiritair.com/welcome.aspx?pg=SalesInformation&number=267 Jen Arianna Frances
  19. Boston isn't called the walking city for nothing - everything you could want to see is walking distance and public transportation is FABULOUS and cheap. Food can be found almost anywhere and for cheap - if you go in late April/May you will catch us in a good time of year. Plus, if you can get over to Cambridge on the T you can score a ride with the MIT club out to Jumptown for jumps Can't help with the housing issue as I'm not too familiar with the hostels in the area, but I'm sure there are alot of options. Good luck with whatever you decide. Jen Arianna Frances
  20. Not for sex - you really need the synth and back beats Arianna Frances
  21. You say that like its a bad thing Arianna Frances
  22. I'm currently convinced this is the best 'get it on' music... which I'm listening to at work Really wish I was home right now... Am I wrong or are these lyrics perfect for sex? Your own personal jesus Someone to hear your prayers Someone who cares Your own personal jesus Someone to hear your prayers Someone whos there Feeling unknown And youre all alone Flesh and bone By the telephone Lift up the receiver Ill make you a believer Take second best Put me to the test Things on your chest You need to confess I will deliver You know Im a forgiver Reach out and touch faith Reach out and touch faith Your own personal jesus... Feeling unknown And youre all alone Flesh and bone By the telephone Lift up the receiver Ill make you a believer I will deliver You know Im a forgiver Reach out and touch faith Your own personal jesus Reach out and touch faith Arianna Frances

    pryers for my dog

    I'm so sorry for your loss - she looks like such a happy pup. I hope your able to nail it to your neighbors, and if not, I'm sure the powers that be above will take care of that when they get there People like that piss me off beyond words. I'd like to poison them and see how they like it.... assholes. Jen Arianna Frances
  24. Foxborough, MA - home of the new england patriots - as of the 1990? census it was the second whitest town in the US - was the 'straw hat' capital of the US at the turn of the 20th century wiki article Jen Arianna Frances
