Have you ever had someone who's been in your life for so long and never actually appreciated that they bring to your life? I have been friends with Evan & Lindsay for a realy long time, but never really noticed how much I have depended on their friendship.

These people has been here through all of my family problems, relationship issues and everything in betwteen. They've been a great friends for years and though I always have been greatful for their friendship, I never knew how much I need them.

Van is that person that gives you the extra boost of confidence. He's the voice of reason when your inner voice is stifled. He's the kind of friend that I at times consider myself to me. Lindsay is someone who gives you honesty when you may not want it. She gives you varying points of views (as I try to do myself) and tries to give you the best solution that she can think of. I consider myself to be a good friend, but in reality, a friend is what they truly embody.

8 years ago I walked into the lunch room as the new kid in a new junior high school for our county and was accepted by them and their friends. 8 years later I still cherish the kindness they showed me. It's amazing how you reflect on your life and the people that had a major impact on it.

Two things happened to me today:

1. Someone came in to the Bath and Body Works and asked me if I would be interested in working at a store three doors from us.

2. A received a telephone call from the Human Resources department of our newspaper to set up an interview for me on Thursday :D

Can anyone give me advice on something that's been really stressing on my mind for a while now:

Paul is one of my roommates and he's been a really good friend of mine since I've entered college. And he's hott. He broke up with his girlfriend a while ago and he's been telling me that he just can't find the right girl. The thing is, as usual, I have a really big crush on him and I've been really bad at hiding it. Especially during Valentine's Day; we went for dinner together and just pigged out and had a really good time. What should do I do; should I tell him or should I just keep hiding it?

He might be worried about losing you as a friend if you both push the envelope.. and you share a living space too. If somehow it didn't work out, you could have compromised friendship and an awkward living arrangement. And he might still be hurting from the breakup; do you want to be the rebound? On the other hand, if he's telling you he "can't find the right girl" while he's looking into your eyes, or touching your hand, it could be the signal to go for it.

A few questions: Has he ever expressed an attraction to you? How "physical" is your friendship (I don't mean sexual)? Why did they break up and how did he handle it?

Don't rush it, whatever you do

There are several positions...she wants me to talk to her about each positoin, take a test and then she'll tell me based on the resume I sent and the test which position I'll be placed in... I know one is for the new free newspaper that comes out with the newspaper....they needed an editor for that; they also have a customer service position, and another in advertising....but I don know that I will in no way get the advertising position. :lol:

Well, once in a while he flirts with me a little. We hug once or twice a day and we used to share the same bed until recently, not because he had issues with it but because I bought a new mattress finally. Paul's girfriend dumped him because she said he wasn't "good enough" for her. (What a b!tch) Which is BS because he is the nicest most committive man I know, my other roomies (who are also super nice) included. He hasn't taken it well; he was really depressed the first few weeks after the break up. Paul really loved that girl and she did the Hokey-Pokey on his heart. You just don't do that to someone. (see, I'm getting all protective of him) I love him, and I don't know how to tell him.

    • I am a little disappointed that the show will be writing Jenn as in the wrong for her not liking Cat, when she's actually in the right.  Maybe if Cat was played by a competent actress and had a purpose, I would be more behind this propping of the character. And I can't wait for the funeral for John Black to be over and then we can proceed and move on.  
    • I'm not sure if the boy Carrie 2 seduced (I think his name was Ron) was still in high school or in college, but I remember he was very shy. I don't recall her making a pass at Alan, but she did make one at Justin, and she ended up banging Josh. I think there was an out of town business man too. Reva thought Josh and Vanessa were having an affair. Vanessa had just been fired by Roger, and when Reva took off to India, Van started helping Josh with the children. He then hired Van to work at Lewis. She would hear him on a business call with Van and think they were arranging a tryst. Or they sat too close together on the couch, so of course they were hiding an affair from her. It was very weird and blew up really quick.  It culminated at the party Reva was throwing at the club to introduce Dylan to Justin. Reva imagined everyone whispering about her and then she dumped a tray of drinks on Vanessa. When Vanessa hauled her into the ladies room to ask WTF, Reva accuses them of having an affair, asks if Van's pregnant, and then knocks her to the floor. I do think Claire had a tumor. I know around Valentine's day, Claire is making passes at a young businessman (or maybe even someone college age), and Ross (Van kinda pushed her at him because she's not keen on Calla). There's also a young intern played by Burke Moses that I think she sleeps with.

        If the standard of play in the women's final yesterday wasn't of the highest caliber, that is not something you could say about today's final. It was absolutely fantastic tennis. 
    • When Barbara's letter was read (partly in Barbara's voice), there was commenting upthread that Barbara's voice is similar to the voice of Naomi's unhoused client June.  It did sound like her.  June is played by Jasmine Burke.  Per closing credits, Barbara was voiced by Sherita Bolden.  Still possible that they are connected. From our discussion on the May thread:  Looks and/or voices similar between June, Haley, and Tracy.   Tracy looks like Debbi Morgan. LOL so June might be connected to Haley, Tracy, or Barbara; and/or Samantha&Tyrell. I love that we don't know!
    • In the 1987 episodes, Mary has wonderful conversations with MJ and Cheryl. This is a realistic family with believable dynamics. Mary's ambivalence towards Vince is played nicely. Denise Alexander is so good here. I don't know what happened that the writers or producers just decided to chuck it all away. I don't FF these scenes. The show had a strong family that could have had years of storyline and they did nothing with them. I really don't get it. 
    • I can't speak for Sonni, but I thought Annie came off as neurotic from very early on. That's just how Cynthia Watros plays her parts, and the writing went along. I don't think Claire was mentally ill - they claimed she had a brain tumor, didn't they? I am never sure just why they made the effort given that she was leaving anyway. 
    • @DeeVee Claire is a perfect example. So many women came to Springfield as competent, smart, and talented professionals. Then they’d attract a so-called “good guy,” get dumped, and spiral into complete chaos. What always strikes me is how clearly it plays like a male fantasy—yet it was written and sold to a female audience.  I'm not a content expert, but I don't think cis gendered women fantasize about losing control of their mental faculties in response to an orgasm. Similar to Holly's story, it seems repulsive, because I don't believe women fantasize about becoming more vulnerable and appealing to men after they've been assaulted.
    • I just watched some parts of an episode of GL where Roger has just been shot by Holly. Rita then admits to Hillary that Roger raped her. Kasdorf is such a fantastic actress. I wish there were more of her work available. 
    • -- Alex Alegria has almost a full sleeve tattoo on one arm and a large tatt on one pec. I see no indication that the show is covering up his ink,
