what experience have you had that you will never forget?
and by the way, i’m curious, what brought you to my site?
Posted 10/23/2003 at 6:35 PM by firephly
The only way I can think of to answer this is to be blunt and somewhat short. I will never forget the night my father died. He had a massive heart attack during the night, my shock-panicked mother woke me and I attempted CPR to no avail. I will never, ever forget that.
As for finding your site, I’ve seen your comments on a few other peoples sites and made clickie clickie with the link.how many different sites from xanga do you read? (and am I one of them?) heh
Posted 10/23/2003 at 6:39 PM by imaginaryzach
Currently, I’m subscribed to 47 Xanga sites, plus a few other weblogs I like to check out now and then. Although I’m not subscribed to you, or more than a few of my subscribers, I do go and check out anyone who leaves a comment.How many women have you made love to?
(including the grudge fucks)
Posted 10/23/2003 at 6:45 PM by MyKi_Whatzerface
In all honesty, I’ve made love to 4 women. Then again, I draw distinct lines between “making love”, “sex” and “fucking”.Oooo… I like the bluntness of her question! I think I shall expand on that one… lol.
So… do you like outdoor sex… places where you risk being seen/caught? And if so… where is the riskiest place you have done it?
Posted 10/23/2003 at 6:51 PM by tenacity
HA. I do like outdoor sex. Some of the riskiest places I’ve done it have been:
1. In my drive way, in my car during a rain storm
2. In a courtyard between stores on Worth Ave.
3. In the health food store I worked at a few years ago. The entire front of the store was ceiling to floor plate glass windows.
EDIT:
I can’t believe I forgot these places: in the bathroom at a wedding reception, the Target parking lot, and on her front porch.how big (in cm) is your wang?
will you post more pictures?
in a threesome between you, me & kelly (pre-baby, no fetish shit here) who’s gettin’ off first?
Posted 10/23/2003 at 6:51 PM by Mudban
My Wang is a standard size, about 16 inches, or 40.64 centimeters.
Pictures of what? If you mean of me, probably not all that many. If you mean of other things, of course I will.
Depends on who I’ve got tied up first.1.) It’s your turn to explain occam’s razor in under 50 words to those xangans who are not englightened like how we are… and don’t say it’s a song by Spiral Architect.
2.) Name your biggest fear, your earliest memory, your proudest moment, your favorite book, and the one food item you cannot live without.
3.) Will you marry me?

1. When confronted with a problem, cut the bullshit. The simplest answer is usually the correct one.

I prefer reality.Where did you grow up?
How often do you work out and what do you do? And why? WHY do you work-out?
Why do you hate team sports?
Longest relationship? How did it end?
where were you in that profile picture?
Posted 10/23/2003 at 7:06 PM by TooOldForThis
The majority of my growing up took place in Bayside, NY. I moved to Florida when I was 13.
I work out every single day. My work outs are “hard” qigong (meditation) sets called Small Frame (or Iron Body), Muscle Tendon Exchange, Snake Turns Over, 3 Planes, Grabbing Nothing. In a nutshell, think yoga like postures for lower body strength and dynamic tension (consciously straining your muscles as hard as you can while moving them through certain ranges of motion) for upper body strength. All done while breathing in certain ways.
It’s not that I hate team sports, I just don’t like playing them or watching most of them. I’m bad at them, I don’t like relying on someone else (in the sense of team playing) and I don’t want someone to rely on me (again in team playing. There’s no “I” in “Team”…which is why I’m not on one.
My longest relationship to date has been 2 years. It finally ended with a quiet phone conversation last December, when I’d decided that I had sacrificed myself more than enough.

I work in a job rehabilitation center for people with disabilities and TBI (traumatic brain injury) patients. Right now I’m an Assistant Supervisor, but I’ve just applied for a Case Worker position.
Most of the things I know are self-taught. I attended college for one semester before I said “screw this” and didn’t go back. To date, I haven’t regretted it and I’ve learned more on my own that I would at college.
I’m just shy of 5’8″. Or 172.72 cm.what is your earliest memory of me?
and
how fucked up in the head am i?
love b
p.s. 3rd question…do you remember who gave me the nickname “b” and how did i get it?
am i narcissistic enough?
haha
Posted 10/23/2003 at 7:26 PM by FightLikeAGirl
My earliest memory of you was seeing you in Mr. Z’s Creative Writing class. At first I thought your head was too big for your body, but then I thought you were cute and your head wasn’t too big. I think this was before the time you fell out of the portable classroom and cut your leg open.
You’re more fucked up in the head than some people, but not as fucked up as you think you are.
I gave you the name “B” and it was because I watched Half Baked too much that week.
There’s no such thing as too much narcissism, so no.What is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?

It’s something I enjoy doing. When I first started on OpenDiary.com, it was at the goading of a good friend, and I saw it as a tool to essentially pull myself and my thoughts apart and examine the stretched out taffy pieces to see what was inside. Now I just enjoy it thoroughly. The social aspect of the Xanga community is wonderful as well. I’ve met some really awesome people here.Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
How many times have you been in love?
How many times has your heart been broken? How many hearts have you broken?
What is your most prized possession?
Posted 10/23/2003 at 8:35 PM by Melanie1213
In 10 years, I’m married with a child or two, a home and my own successful enough business.
I’ve been in love 4 times in my life so far. 3 of those 4 were my heart breaking, 1 was me breaking a heart.
My most prized possession would have to be either my CD collection or my computer. It’s a close toss up.oh geez, you said questions, right? so: what 5 CDs do you listen to the most? and what are your 5 favorite books?
Posted 10/23/2003 at 9:01 PM by virgilmvx
Without a doubt, my top 3 favorite CD’s are Sunny Day Real Estate’s Diary, The Afghan Whigs’ Gentlemen and Hum’s Downward Is Heavenward. The last 2 fluctuate, right now being Taking Back Sunday’s Tell All Your Friends and Sugar’s Copper Blue.
My top 5 books would be Watership Down by Richard Adams, The Farseer/Tawny Man trilogies by Robin Hobb, His Dark Materials trilogy by Phillip Pullman, House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski and i can’t think of a 5th one.damn I only read the Amy’s question and I’d have to say I would.

What would you say about the best memories you have had and with who????
Posted 10/23/2003 at 9:45 PM by Lifelessons
I would say that although I’m glad that time in my life is over, I’m also glad I have those memories. As a famous author wrote once, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” I prefer to hang onto the good and let the bad drift and dissolve. As for the who of it, we still know each other, but don’t talk much. I wish her all the best and hope she sets herself straight.are you the squirrel? YOU know which one …

Right now. This second. Morning grey fading into the small circle of desk lamp light. A small steady breeze flowing and ebbing through the room. Christie Front Drive is the perfect sound (November is the track).what have been your three most embarassing moments?
heh…i sneaked that one in, all last-minute style.
Posted 10/23/2003 at 11:56 PM by the8rgrl
1. Kicking my Shotokan teacher square in the ass during a sparring session when I was little. Everyone, including the Sensei laughed, but I thought I had done something wrong.
2. Realizing that I didn’t like and couldn’t play team sports…in the middle of a soccer game.
3. Getting pantsed in the lunch line at school. It was laundry day. I was commando.Now it’s my turn to ask all of you a question. If there was something, a thing you needed to do, a thing you wanted to do, a thing you felt a responsibility to do, but in order to do it, you’d have to give up almost everything you loved to do and almost all social contact, live a monastic life, an ascetic, spartan life, for one year, would you do it? Could you do it?
EDIT:
This also includes abstaining from alcohol, drugs, masturbation and sex. Hence the use of the word monastic. I just want to point this out.“Be systematically ascetic…do…something for no other reason than that you would rather not do it”- William James

hell yes! In a second!
I think that I am looking for something that will make me have to do that, I want that challenge, I think that it would change me in important ways, open my mind, impart with with new self confidence, etc.
Although in all honesty, you could say that I almost did just this for an entirely semester of my life…but that’s a long story. At least a lot of good artistic work came out of it.
juzt droppin propz!
yep. I’d do it.
First of all, I am sorry that I didn’t take the opportunity to ask a question while I had the chance. I hope that you do this again in the future.
And, in regards to your question … yes, in a heartbeat.
You should do it, you know… this “thing” you’re talking about. Because that’s really what you want to know isn’t it? If you can do it?
Do it Rich, do it before life gets in the way.
A year isn’t that long. Think bigger than just big– you know you can do it.
I missed the question session! But to answer your question:
Yes, especially if the drive and motivation are there. I know that the people who really love me will still be there when I return and would, if not understand, accept what I was doing.
I honestly don’t know if I would be able to. I would like to say that I could and I would, but I don’t know. See, now you’ve got me thinking! Damnit.
One year? Just one year?
Where do I sign up? For that matter, where do I find something…a thing I need to do, a thing I want to do, a thing I feel a responsibility to do…of that magnitude?
And this: seeing your height in centimeters made me curious about my own (it’s been a few years since I measured myself) and I was thoroughly depressed to discover I am already shrinking. I’ve got a few centimeters on you, still, but considering I used to be 5’9″ we’re talking major calcium deficient shrinkage.
I loved your answers to these questions, but in my mostly humble opinion you are clueless about your own hotness.
before child, yes. after child, no.
It really depends on if I have a responsibility to anyone. like red dirt girl said… if I had a child, then absolutely not. And right now, no, because my best friend needs me (she just lost her father). But if I had no responsibility to anyone other than socially, then in a heartbeat, yes.
I think no… I probably very much underestimate myself but I don’t think I could do it… I wouldn’t want to be in total control of my destiny because then I would have no one to blame but myself.
Maybe this is something I should ponder doing… just because. I need a wake up call.
Alcohol, drugs, sex…I’ve already experienced giving each of these up for lengthy periods of time, so no problem there. As for masturbation, I don’t know that it is entirely possible for the human mind to refrain.
What are erotic dreams if not mental masturbation?
I would have to say yes. Something I needed AND had a responsibility to do is much too much to just pass lightly over.
But the question is: what if the one thing you needed, the one thing you wanted, and the one thing you had a responsibility to do WAS social contact?
I would definitely do it. One year is nothing in the scheme of things and anyone would probably learn more in that one year than all their previous years.
And as for this you gave answer to my question:
“I attended college for one semester before I said “screw this” and didn’t go back. To date, I haven’t regretted it and I’ve learned more on my own that I would at college.”
I’m glad I’m not the only one. Education doesn’t necessarily have to be formal to be.
Honestly? It’s tempting to say no. Even if I say I’m not social, and don’t need that many things, I know exactly how high maintenance I am. However, I know that for me, to give up everything in pursuit of whatever it is I need to be complete isn’t even a question. As many others have stated, a year is almost nothing in the scheme of things. To have what I need so badly in my life, and knowing that I would be able to attain it in such a short span of time would be the only motivation I need.
I have a really long and thoughtful reply to this (only part of which I’m leaving here) but after all the convolusion, the answer is YES.
The single most rewarding time in my life was when I was homeless. people think I’m crazy when I tell them that instead of the first months of Weed’s life or whatever socially acceptable “life changing experience” I’m supposed to have, but when I was homeless I felt more alive than ever in my life. I was depending on me for EVERYTHING including physical safety and it was amazing and wonderful and if I didn’t have Weed I would have probably spent this summer with out a home too. There is nothing like it, knowing that you own your life. You never do anything you don’t want to again. I mean I spent a year in a shit crap relationship and then said fuck it and got out, I’ve known people who took ten years (or longer) to leave because they didn’t know that they COULD do it. I’ve never had that doubt as an adult because when I was nineteen years old I figured out that I really could do ANYTHING. and the secret to it is that anyone of reasonable intelligence and health can do anything…
DO IT! and you will know that you are made of durable, heavy shit and no one gets to tear you apart ever again. Don’t do it and you’ll always have to wonder.
(shit man, you’re heavy cap right? I’m a fucking fully loaded Taurus, do you know how hard it is for a TAURUS to do without? it oughta be a cake walk for you!)
I honestly do not know, and I’m not going to pretend like I do. It would completely depend on the exact situation, what these things were I loved, and what this thing I needed and wanted to do was. It’s all up in the air until you get to that very fork in that very road.
That sounds *like* the point I’m at now. Three years ago, I thought I was in love.. and realized that love never existed in my life. But if I take my son and do what I have to… if I do what’s right… I will be outcasted and alone. I know what I want to do..what I have to do…. but getting to the point where I’m able to..that’s the sticky part. So right now, I would have to say no. And that’s only because I haven’t been able to do it yet.
And maybe next summer the pink bikini will come in handy…it’s a bit cold here at the moment
WOW!! first of.. your xanga site is cool…u don’t knoe me but i was just surfin’ xanga and stumbled upon urs…..and for your question..um..yes i would do it..for a year especially if i have the inspiration to do it…but if the question is COULD i do it…hopefully i can
…
Answer to your question: yes, because
You can do anything you put your mind to
would do it. could do it. have done it.
yes.
Yes.
I believe I found you through one of the blogrings I belong to.
Xanga surfing…props, props, and more props
Wahhhh I didnt get to ask u a questy. Im always missing shit. :sighs: Ever fashionably late. Imma gonna answer yers anyways… coz Im a bored and nosy gem with nothing better to do hehee.
I pretty much already abstain from most of those things LOL so I think I could do it, with the one exception of not being social. Tho even with that one… sometimes Im exceptionally reclusive, so it may not make a big diff. (sat 12th house whooppeee!) I dont think tho, I could honestly go for long periods of time without any social contact. Ive got too much gemmie and leo for that. Could I still have my AOL? hehehee Then I could definitely do it.
pssst get yo ass back online. I have a pic to send u :snorts:
I won’t do anything if you take away my right to masturbate. I’m sorry, but that’s just WRONG.
I’d do it. In a heartbeat.
It sounds as though your mind is set up, Rich.
I don’t know if I could leave everything behind for a year. I did it once. I just walked out the door leaving everyting I held dear behind me, and then I just kept on walking. But. I didn’t enter a monistary. It took a while for me to make a new life, but I did. Solitude is a difficult thing- even when you think you don’t really need people, like I did. I’d have to really want to do this thing. I’d have to convince myself that it won’t break me, that there’s a lot to gain from it. It sounds like an amazing experience, but a year is a long time still. It’s somewhat amorphic. I think I’d have to know why would it have to be done that way? Why is it essential to keep away from absolutely everyone and every thing?
I loved your answers.
Wow, no, absolutely not. God, what a bore.
I’m honestly not sure if I believe what I just said or not.
yeah! bayside represent!!!
yes, if for no other reason, to believe in something. by believe i mean to pursue a goal to the point in which the pursuit takes over. till it becomes your whole reason for being. every thought will center upon it and every choice will reflect.
i believed once, life had meaning, now i’m lost, searching to believe
if i felt that intense of a compulsion to do something, i would like to think i had the courage to do it. but i think life is never about extremes, i believe in moderation, balance. i don’t think either extremes of decadence or abstinence is healthy. but i envy those that can hear their inner voice and have the strength to follow it. “adversity is the first path to truth” —Lord Byron
I would not give up a relationship with someone I love; romantic, family or friend. The rest I would. Even sex, believe it or not. I enjoyed this entry.
I’m currently abstaining from sex, drugs, and all that nasty stuff. It’s quite easy really.
nope. the lack of social contact would kill me.
although it is rather tempting.
