What have you bought lately?

[Phallacy]

Tortilla chips, five layer dip, chocolate cheesecake, and ice cream. Bought a few games and DLC's from the Steam sale.

[Queen Victoria]

The party starts when?  Cbc and I will be right over.

[Phoenix]

With MissK tagging along!

Bought a dolly to help the BF move things around.

[Lestat]

Miss K hun you should be concentrating on helping yourself right now my dear. Rest, recover.

BTW get back to me as soon as you can regarding the PM I sent, for there is a limited time window in which I will be able to do certain required compensatory things if the response to the PM is in the positive, because something has to be available to me to be treated in certain ways so that a positive response can be acted upon in the manner specified. And of course rapidity of action is the key anyhow due to the nature of the requirement and spatio-temporal distance between point of origin and endpoint.

This wouldn't be the first time you've suggested some such thing to a member here, so will assume I know what this is about and say, I truly hope you never find anyone so naive, gullible, or stupid enough to put themselves at risk of jail by engaging in illegal activity with you.

There are moments when I am glad the US and Great Britain have an extradition treaty.  Would consider breaking the law with Lestat if I could get extradited.  JK

I mentioned no illegal activity. I was simply phrasing my bringing miss K's attention to the PM in a manner framed such as she would understand what I speak of without having to divulge the content of a PM to other than she. Merely stating that time frame is not lacking in import and beyond it I would lack the capacity itself to see that which is spoken of enacted.

And QV, aww, ya sweetie *hugs*

And jack-assume nothing about me, nor about things I speak of, when to of that which you speak, you are not privy. And what I offered somebody else was nothing illegal, I think I know what you speak of, and although a medication, it was an anti-vomiting agent, which is extremely expensive, yet which I had a surfeit of relative to my needs, and for which I myself did not have to pay money. If your talking about what I think your talking about then my one and only motive was to lighten a load on the shoulders of one cared for. Is that really such an impure or heinous thing to wish of somebody you cared about, to ease misery? It was not a truckload of fresh-from-columbian-cartel cocaine, it was an uncontrolled medication that is no more illegal than aspirin, although big pharma charge (wholesale prices!) almost £100 for just 10 pills, or something crazy like that. The kind of thing insurance in countries that need such would have a fit, and accordingly drs ration out with a vice-grip fist. I wished it to have the chance to provide benefit to somebody important to me, out of compassion. And sought no recompense of any kind.

Is that selfish and wrong? I see no way in which it could be attributed to such motives as self interest in any way bar that my interests are served indirectly in that the one cared about could be offered comfort.

I don't have any PM's from you Lestat.  But I'm okay. Thank you.

I thought I lived quite spacious. Terraced house measurements are about right for how I live at the moment. Sometimes am thinking about downsizing.

depends on style of terraced house.   As i said elsewhere, mine is as narrow as they come, more like a glorified passageway. The larger of the two downstairs rooms is aboput 160 square feet  (not troubling to subtract for space taken up by chimney breast and stairs) which would be fine if not for 3 entrances/exits making adjacent space unusable  space..and the depressing dearth of natural light (the only window being squashed into the space next to kitchen, looking out into a narrow passage beween my kitchen and the dividing wall between properties )

I have a sofa, armchair, bookcase, computer desk, TV stand and a couple of coffee tables in this space, and that's quite enough to make it feel cramped and cluttered.  There is nowhere remotely suitable to fit a dining table, so eating is done casually, on laps.

I'd like to "downsize" to a single bedroom flat with nice big windows.  The right downsize (indeed most such flats)  would be consideberably more spacious, and also easier to keep warm. (victorian houses are notoriously cold and draughty) But  the rents are too high, and the landlords won;'t take tenants on benefits anyway.  Ground floor flats in paticular are like gold. and that's what I'd be looking for...indeed I was looking for one a few years back, but gave up) . These houses are p[retty much the cheapest thing on the market.

It could be worse. They built masses of these terraces m  in Victorian times, in the vicinity of the factories,  and squeezed large -often extended- families into them. We're  heading back towardas that kind of cramming in Britain now...but without the convenient workplaces!  Heck , an awful lot of people are living on the street in my city, and i can count myself lucky not to be one of them, (it almost did come to that) so I'm not grumbling. But at the same time, it isn't something to aspire to either.

Pain meds and proper wraps for my legs.

It was a combination of the post in this thread, combined with this post: http://www.intensitysquared.com/index.php/topic,18644.msg1160537.html#msg1160537 and also this post: http://www.intensitysquared.com/index.php/topic,18644.msg1160536.html#msg1160536 which gave the distinct impression you were specifically offering something else. Though it wasn't a impression of illegal substance, but rather activity, and controlled or uncontrolled doesn't negate the risks involving prescriptions, so the caring intent strikes me as irrelevant. Though it would appear the offer never even happened so that makes this conversation irrelevant too.

[DirtDawg]

I bought a huge pile of baltic birch plywood.

I have a project in mind.

[renaeden]

You guys better hope I'm not trying to hide a body. (apparently a well labelled body, nicely wrapped but whatever)

Did you make sure to give it a nice pair of cement shoes?
