What's on your mind?

Only when they see you with your niece. She looks like she could be your daughter.

You have that mature look about you. People in their 20's today are hard to place sometimes. Some are parents. My sister is only a few years older than me and is in her early 30's, but has a 16-year-old daughter. She got pregnant young in high school. Now she's married with three kids.

Actually, now that I think of it. I remember once when I was with my little sisters someone had thought I was their mother. I was surprised. haha  

How much older than them are you?

I usually get around my age. Though when I went through training, the Asst. Manager training me thought I was a senior in high school.

I think you look young Apricity.

People still ask me what grade I'm in or what college I go too. Maybe I should return to school so I can have a more interesting answer.

I have a Korean American friend who's been living in Korea recently and she said that there when you introduce yourself you say your name and your age at the first meeting.

I have taken Stephen King's advice and set my novel aside.  For how long, I don't know.  I have a friend reading it while it rests.  In the meantime, I've started on the next book, which has a different flow from what I usually write.  When you take your mind off what you have just written and then later go back to it, it will be easier to read it with an open mind and it will be easier to edit.  

It does help. I didn't plan on doing it with White Friday, but it just happened when I got a new idea and started on something else. It turned out to be about 4 months. And it helped.

Regarding the age thing... I've gotten 25 and 35. So, whatev. If I had a beard and a shaved head, I could probably get 40

like during the beginning of the internet popularity when you'd join chat rooms and forums people would automatically ask for: A/S/L (age, sex, location).

Speaking of beards.... I saw someone i didnt know with a beard the other day and was thinking "beards = glancing twice at someone" :p

I tried to grow my beard, but my mom said to shave it because it doesn't suit me like the goatee does

Okay so I'll grow it out just for you

One of my roommates has the full beard, I don't think I could do that. Would drive me crazy, but I do like the goatee.

yeah whenever I go without shaving for a few days, I think it's a nice look, but drives me crazy too. Itches like nothing else.

Whew. The other driver's insurance company is claiming liability for the accident, so the repairs will be paid for in full

I like when guys have beards.

 Any beard or does the homeless guy look work for you as well?

I have to stay smoove- ish. Since I shave my head it just looks weird if I grow on my face but nothing up top.

Looks like God put my head on upside down.  

Besides, people are scared of my look as it is with a smooth face. They would really be scared if I showed up looking like a crazed skin head lumberjack.

Not sure why but everyone says I look like an angry ex con, all I need is the outfit. I guess the saying "make a face long enough it sticks" is true. Of course when I smile everyone says its "disturbing" so I just cant win.

Hmm. Are you some random internet person...or my friend??

I just hope for your sake they have a GOOD ins. company, otherwise you may be tempted to pay yourself with how long it takes them.

Geico is THE worst. Both having it AND getting repairs done.
