How are you going?
 
Let me lend a friendly ear, how are you going at the moment?

BubblyShell22 10-03-2012 09:24 AM

Um, I'm not going anywhere at the moment. I'm at home. If you mean, how am I doing, I'm doing okay. Have a bit of a headache, though it's not as bad as it was early. Thank you, Advil.

Vivi 10-03-2012 09:28 AM

^ Yay for drugs that remove headaches.

(I think the phrasing of my question is a little of the ol' local slang: "How ya goin', mate?")

sykosis 10-03-2012 09:28 AM

I usually go standing up, unless it's number two.
Well, late at night I might go number one sitting down, but that's my prerogative so don't judge me!

Vivi 10-03-2012 09:43 AM

Have a mango, you know, for fibre:

:mango:

Motions aside, you sound somewhat happy!

I am fairly happy. I recently decided to go back to school, taking courses online and they are going relatively well. It's difficult to get back into the swing of things, going back to school as an adult, but I'm proud of myself for doing it, so yep I'm happy.
Thank you for the astute, kind observation

I'm doing pretty good. Can't wait to go home.

Vivi 10-03-2012 10:06 AM

It's a necessity of life to have something to look forward to. You know, there's an old saying that I just made up: 'Home is where you can make a coffee and throw your spoon in the sink.'
Hope you have a blast!

Doing. In the States we say "How are you doing?"

I remember I was out with a girl from England and she asked me if we ought to get off! (She meant leave the venue, of course.)

Don't get me started about crossed wires. I remember talking to an American friend and said I'd ring them later. Get your filthy mind out of the gutters, people, because all I meant was that I would call later!

Idk what is dirty about that??? We say that all the time here in NC.

arkangel 10-04-2012 02:22 PM

Most of us don't know how we're going to go. When it's your time, it's your time. Now I'm all... :-?

Maybe this one could be called The bar, and used for positive chatter ,while the cafe can be left for all the usual drama.

TheCanadiandrome 10-04-2012 04:09 PM

well i go by bus, car or plane, lol!

gobo 10-04-2012 05:01 PM

I was actually gonna use, "Fairly regularly. Those bran flakes are quite the helpful food," but I was beaten to the obvious poop joke. :P

I feel like I'm destroying innocence here, but take 1 part of the song 'Ring of Fire' and one part '50 Shades of Grey' and infer what you will.

Besides that, I'm terribly glad to hear that all vehicular and bowel movements are chugging along smoothly. Mangoes for all: :mango:

Sorry that your toilet is leaking cACHI, it reminds me of a dirty joke that I probably shouldn't repeat.

BubblyShell22 10-05-2012 09:23 AM

I think the Cafe should be for sad as well as happy things, but I don't mind this thread really.

It was kind of inspired by "R U OK?" Day. It's good to reach out rather than wait for someone to vent.

New cafe reminds me of a dingy dive, soft jazz playing in the background while a guy with a long face sips at his fourth glass of wine, head hung low. You come in to say, "Hey, I graduated top of my economics class, everyone said I wouldn't make. Can you believe that? I'm dyslexic and on pills for mania, but you're the only person I can tell that doesn't think I'm a screw up!". That guy puts his glass down and says, "Really? Well I just found out there's no God and the only place my heroin-addicted gran went after she died was into the cold hard earth.". Then you just hang your head in shame, shame for feeling good about something, and say, "Can you pour me one of those?".

Ok, that may have been a little dramatic.

You're onto something there.

Vivi 10-05-2012 11:59 AM

^ Yes, you're right. I guess it's like feeling bad about your problems, feeling bad for other people and their problems, and then feeling bad that you're problems are not a problem compared to some real problems. Phew, now I'm beginning to sound like one of the clones on Nick:P

At the moment all's good for me, but I have a huge project due soon that's been hanging over my head.

Slade 10-05-2012 12:02 PM

Great. It's vacation time.

Man, I believe I already stated this should be "the bar" since it's more fun than a cafe, now if somebody starts throwing the "C" word around here , I'll get the gorilla sized bouncer to throw you out..:P

Catfight? O_o

BubblyShell22 10-05-2012 04:39 PM

Honestly, I don't like bars and prefer not to drink at all. I always think of a cafe as a more homey place where people can talk about anything, while a bar, to me, is a place where people go to talk about the bad stuff in their lives while drinking alcohol.

I know, how about we call the happy place The Lounge?

Vivi 10-09-2012 04:12 AM

I feel like lounging now, but I have 2 more days until my major project is due. That's why I'm here. Procrastinating.

:tcouch:

zkarlette 10-09-2012 10:02 PM

Well if you are going to procrastinate you should at least do it like a boss, you are in the right place..
