During the day she is perfectly normal. She is a little slow but that is something that comes with age a lot of times. At night she gets really antzy. She rocks in the rocking chair really fast. She will walk to different parts of the living room and just rest there. She will sit in the recliner, moan, groan, and talk to herself. She was watching a commertial and they said "pink" and she just kept saying "pink." When they said "blue" she kept saying "blue." She claims she can't sleep but she never tries. What could it be? I have never seen this kind of behavior before. (Well, I have seen her do it a lot, but not in anyone else.)

What exactly is a cowboy?

Did cowboys really existed or did they only exist in the movies? Are you considered a cowboy only if you ride horses and carry revolvers?

Do cowboys still exist today?

Why do some people so unkindly brand George W Bush a cowboy? Why is it other people are not branded as such? Is it also true just because you are an American, you are a cowboy?

After three months of them discovering that lump on my lung, and bunches of tests, I go in tomorrow to have a biopsy.

I am quite scared, because I don't like needles been put into me. Let alone, into my lung. And I will only have a local, so I will be awake.

At least, with the biopsy we will get a final result, I hope! Think of me tomorrow please, as all my family are far away.

Lately, I tried to see if I could be attracted to a female.

I managed to **** about one of my female school friends, although it took some effort. It was hot.
Recently, I also had an erotic dream about a female but I was only started getting turned on, then the dream ended.

Although, I find the attraction to females isn't something that just happens automatically(except for that dream). And I still find it easier to be turned on by guys.

Does this mean I'm Bi. I'm gradually finding it easier to be turned on by females.

For me, it was "My Brother's Keeper," by Marcia Davenport. It is the story of two brothers who were found dead amid tons of rubbish in their house.

The book details how they got to that point.

The book made such an impression on me that I never forgot it. It was written in 1954. I was shocked that anyone could live that way, and then, years later, I noticed one of my aunts had become just such a packrat. Scary.

It seems like blacks have had it the hardest--from all races, not just whites.

(p.s.I have been attracted to some black guys. Some are pretty cute.)

The only other group I can think of that has faced similar harsh treatment are the Jews. Except they look Caucasian, so I guess it's easier for them...

What do you guys think?

I mean the classy whores like jenna jamison and kerrin steffans and other play boy bunnies - it seem like all men like the women that sleep around a lot, is it because they receive excellent oral performances from these women, what is the real reason

Banning people from wearing certain articles of clothing like saggy pants and short shorts or skirts. Not to mention freedom of speech is going right out the window.

I'm interested in clear communication, and I'm not a chatroom enthusiast, so I don't really find the "chatroom abbreviations" and text messaging style questions and responses too charming. In fact, trying to interpret them leaves me annoyed and I usually skip the question or response entirely.
Does anyone else find this as annoying as I do??

I do, and I know it's probably irrational, but I hate to be cold. I want to hibernate and not leave the house again until spring.

We have mild winters here, so I'm sure it's just a phobia. In the past 7 years, we've hardly had measurable snowfalls.

I AM NOT SAYING THERE IS ANYTHING WRONG WITH LESBIANS, ok?.There's this girl at my school who always hugged me even though I didn't know her.So one day I was wondering whether or not she was just going to come and hug me without my consent at any time, so when she came near me I pushed her away and she just laughed!
I thought it was kind of weird at first, but then I just tried to be friendly and hug her back.
Well, one day after school, (there were no teachers in the halls, remember that), I went back to upstairs to talk to her, and then she kissed another girl right in front of me!
And she was hugging me before and all these things and I,m afraid she might do that sort of lesbian thing to me!I have this feeling that even if I go to the counselor and tell her that I want her away from me, she'd still come after me and be weird because she's very persistant and won't go away! I don't want her start acting that way toward me because I don't believe in being lesbian! I like GUYS!SORRY

I have to write a paper for my Psychology class. The assignment is to interview someone 65 or older, and ask these questions:

How do you feel about your age?
How do young people treat you?
Is there anything you miss that you used to be able to do and now are unable to do?

I hope these questions are not too personal. I am not fortunate enough to have someone 65 or older in my family to interview, so I am looking to you for help. Serious, honest answers only, please. Thank you so very much! :o)

Maybe your mall is different, but a mall I go to is like this:
Some stores have mainly whites, and others seem to have mainly blacks that go in them.
For instance, Hollister-whites
and there's this store called Downtown locker room which mainly blacks go in. They always play hip hop music every time I go by.
I dont know what kind of music Hollister plays but I know its not hip hop! lol
Is your mall like this? Personally I'll go into any store if I see something I think is cute for me!

One of my good guy friends loves to make "fag" jokes. He can call anyone a fag or lez but whenever someone calls him that (fag) he always says "shutup stop calling me that!" (at least he knows how the others feel) but he still does it, especially about our Spanish AP teacher.
I'm more accepting of gay people than he is, since one of my good friends came out to me as a lesbian (see the question in my profile). I don't even know if he means it or not when he calls someone a fag because he can be contradicting at times which pisses me off. It's as if everyone else is a fag but himself.
He bases it mostly on stereotypes and so if someone said he was a "fag" for taking 45+ min showers, he'd go "I don't take 45 min showers dumbass" but he is always saying "girls should do this, guys should do that and so forth." He also said people who take orchestra are fags which pissed me off. He's one of my good buddies but how can I tell him to STFU w/out him being bitchy about it.
