Just tell me what to do, what job to get, where to live, how to spend my money and I'll just do what you say and live happily ever after. Could someone just do that for me?

That was too much of a low hanging curve ball, to not blast it out of the park, even if it is a political stereotype. My apologies, and I won't do it again, Susan. :) )


Wasn't that Satan's plan? Does this mean you're OK doing a deal with the Debbil? Especially if he comes bearing Pinot Gris?

I have a protective payee and she's worth the 30$ a month I pay her. I can't handle my money for beans, although I make other decisions just fine. And the peace of mind knowing I don't have to worry I'm going to have an insane moment and spend my rent money is priceless!

I order you to make decisions that make you happy!!!

(Other than that I'm afraid I can't tell you what to do.)

Stay in California.
Work in a job you enjoy (and if you don't enjoy your job, find one you do but don't quit without having a job to go to).
Stay in California.
Hug a palm tree.
Take a walk on the beach.
Stay in California.
Eat Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia Ice Cream.
Don't spend your money on expensive items. Garage Sales and Swap Meets are a blast!
Did I mention stay in California?

You know, I'll say again like I did yesterday--if you think you can't heal from coming to this board. I never have a pity party after coming here.

I can't even tell you I'd trade you lives right now. Mine sucks big time right now--but I am so sorry for all you have been through. I do hope it improves soon.

Life is like a turd sandwich. The more bread you have, the less s**t you eat.

When life throws you lemons, get a salt shaker and a bottle of ta-kill-ya. F**k making lemonade!

No problem is so great that it can't be overcome by a dose of high explosives.

And finally,

Joke 'em if they can't take a f**k!

Well, except the happy part.

Sounds like the perfect solution.

Marry a mormon, put fifty bricks in your backpack, and jump on the Treadmill to Zion.


Next stop: Celestial City ....

I can suggest drinking beer and/or wine.

Does that help, in the short term? ;o))

Take flying lessons and get your Commercial ticket.
Get a job as a pilot.
Live in Alaska.
Spend your money on toys and fun stuff of all kinds, and massages.

Except for the $15K or $20K or more to get the commercial ticket. That could be a challenge.

Living in CA causes brain rot. Minnesotan Garrison Keillor points this out every winter, and look how Oregonians complain about Californians intercoursing up the neighborhood.

Alaska. Great idea. Made Sarah P what she is today. <irony intended> And I've never known a pilot who hated their job, and I've worked with a lot of pilots.

Keep a roof over your head, food in your tummy, and know life is never fair. You can not fix all of the broken things.

You have friends you have never met:)

>>> Gahhh stop. Stop teasing me meowwwplease. I wish I was in California right now, living in the outback hinterland of some lonely desert highway, and some Mesa hoodoos, on my Motorbike.

Either that or rapelling a Californian cliff, to my ninja stash sanctuary, like on Ninja 3, where the ninja survives being blasted many times by the LAPD, and imprinting her Ki energy to a Gaijin lineswoman working on some power lines.

I still have to finish my training, get a job in California, get my Green card, join the National Guard, build a bunker for all my friends and family, in some mountain, and scream out "WOLVEREENS" when my Chinese brethren get it in their heads to invade. Which is tactically an impossibility, 1) they'd have to go through Hawaii, AND L.A. two heavily fortified bases, 2) if they go through the Akaska route, (they'd get shanked by escapees and other fugitives and freeze to death). 3), the BC highway will become like Sparta's thermopolia in which Canadians will kick their butts, 4) they can go through Alberta. (they're going to wish they haven't. Angry Hockey fans, with no stanley cup (and I'm one of them, well a fan) enough said (and the Prince Patricias who defeated them in Korea). 5) Mormons with guns (should they pass that guantlet they have to go through the Morg Corridore). 6) They'd be flanked by the South AND the Californians... 7) They make it to Mexcio they have to face the "familia". 8) if they travel through the East (they waste alot of Gas, vulunerable to European Allies.

America is the safest place to be, or Canada. And since I lived my whole life in Canada, to be pinged around like pin ball. I'm getting bugged driving down the same old street. I got to find a place where the kids are hip.

I can get me a nice quite older house, a mid level suburbian home (needs a jacuzzi though), a lawn, pets, a garage with mom's car, my car, a rice cooker, a wok, a fridge, DVD TV, computer (although the kids sticky fingers are going to be on it), and a Man cave, where I can store all my nerdy junk and porn, and guns (for hunting. My scout master got me hooked on Scout Stew), my Scout uniform and other camping crap, and lots of Scouter Rader like stuff SANS dead bodies, and murder crap). Why Scouter Rader, why the Fuck did you do it? Why? I need heros to look up t, not psychotic monsters.


sucks being the big brother of the pack and having no heros. And a Ham Radio, just incase I need to scream out Wolvereens. and a freezer for burgers as I plan to have a huge Chinese-American family, or a mixed family.

And I want a cat and a dog, and nice comfy sofas, and if I am lucky the Lazy boy with massage feature. All these will come slowly though. So when I'm ready to be sent to the chinatown hosplice, with monks chanting at me. I can go in style.

And trees, want to plant lots of trees in the yard.

But my most precious American possession, is my name tag that I worked as a voter runner dude. I did that before moving to China (I still don't know why I did that, as Zoidberg didn't know why he came to Earth). Then in California. My children graduates and goes to...... DISNEYLAND, and I get Disney shares. And I can finally live in a land where you're suposed to be a weird Geek, and study Martial Arts..

But I'd pick more inland smaller towns, I grew up in a mid sized town, Calgary. If I don't achieve my American dream, there's always Calgary. and American like city. (very Atlanta like).. and cheer for the Flames.

I know a place where the grass is really greener.
California girls, Daisy dukes with binikis on top...
Sun so hot it'll melt your popsicle.
oh oh oh ohhhhh oh oh oh ohhhhhhhhh...

Then I can have adventures like on Lost Boys, and Goonies, and complete Doctor Vornof's work, and create my brothers and sisters children of the Atom.

And go to Wyld Stallens concerts.

All the leaves are brown and the sky is grey.
I'd be safe and Warm if I moved to LA.

I like the part where he got down to pray, and the preacher told him to stay.

But I wish I dated a californian girllllllllll.
Then I can like ride my motorcycle in San Francisco.
And support the Kingdom of Norton I, because he defended Chinese immergrants, by reciting the Lord's Prayer. That's full of Win.

Gahhhhhhh I wish I had a green card. GIVE ME A GREEN CARD> GREEEN CARD GREEEEEEEEEN CARD. So I can pay taxes, and give blood, and go to school in America, and volunteer with voting, and join the Nation Guard and fight bad guys, and I can invest in American companies, and invent stuff. I'm Chinese. We invent things. Then I can say "ohhh sexy girlfriend", and jump out a tree drunk.

I knew I could count on you guys to laugh me out of a slump.

Sorry I whined.

Today, while I was meditating, my Inner Universe told me something it had already told me last year! I thought You're the Universe - you're supposed to be infinite. There's nothing
infinite about telling me stuff you already told me. I mean,
come on! YOU can do better than re-runs. WTF?

Anyway, I said to The Universe "I've been being. It's not working."




And I LOVED all your responses. I read them twice. I might keep them.

as a future citizen of the United States of America. I am forbidden by the Citizen's oath to do this.

for I am to uphold the constitution of America, defend it at times of troubles that threaten's it's existnace, and to surrender all alligances to foreign potentates and rulers.

The constitution of the United States of America, promises all citizens such as you Wine Country Girl of California a state in America. That all citizens are promised: Life, liberty and the presuit of happiness. To enslave you as you requested violates your personal freedoms, freedoms, and would make you unhappy (strike two), and deny you a life (strike 3), and in America, 3 strikes I'm out, I think....

so, however, if you're doing things that make you happy. (I lack data on your personal life, to know intimately the details of what your habits and hobbies are. But if you're doing them, and you're happy then keep doing them).
