Hi Christine!

Nice to meet you!

You don't like LA Mandy? I love it there. I'm toying with the idea of a job there.

How are you feeling today?

Wayward Melody · 03-10-2009, 07:12 PM

I think I'm just sick of it here. I find alot of stuff very fake, it's the nature of a film town, sorry to say. A bit better, thanks for asking. I've still been on toast and tea today, though.

I Don't Dance · 03-10-2009, 07:21 PM

Is there someplace else you'd rather be?

Tea and toast, can't get better than that when you don't feel good.

I hope this passes quickly.

New York, it's a different sort of art vibe. I have a few British friends that say I'd do well over there but I've never visited so I don't know.

Thanks babe.

I Don't Dance · 03-10-2009, 09:03 PM

I have a friend who is an actress in NY, and she loves it, but I just can't really get into the city. I have been a couple times the last few months, and while it is fun to visit, I can't imagine really living there.

Wayward Melody · 03-11-2009, 05:40 PM

I just love it there, it's so, and I know I'm going to sound cliche but alive the people there are just so much more literate on the whole and the art vibe is completely different. Put it this way, they took a poll of people on the streets of LA and in NYC during the elections and asked "Do you know who Joe Biden is?" and 79% of New Yorkers knew when only 22% here did...it just to me perfectly encapsulates what I mean by different.

There are only three things I hate about NY...I have yet in any of the times I've visited been able to get a shower the temperature I wanted, the humidity in summer is killer, and the roaches/rats thing is an issue.

I Don't Dance · 03-11-2009, 05:48 PM

That's funny.

The rat/roaches thing is a big deal for me. I tried the subway. Until there was a rat on one of the trains. From that moment on, I made my friends take taxis - I was willing to pay.

I haven't been in the summer since I was a kid, but a group of us are planning on meeting there in late July or early August. The humidity is something I dread - my hair is very important to me.

Mississippi has about 85% humidity or higher almost the entire summer. Humidity is something I'm totally used to

Hate it, but lived with it all my life

I don't mind at all. I own/operate a small theatre company. I direct/produce in the area but I usually am working the odd job to supplant my income and going to school part time, though I'm taking this semester off.

I didn't know you actually owned the company. That's really cool

Hi Avery, really nice to meet you! I'm Christi.

Cool beans. Nice to meet you too

What part of the world do you hail from?

Hey missy, I didn't get to talk to you over the weekend. How's it going?

She's in trouble for that, btw

I Don't Dance · 03-11-2009, 08:11 PM

I live in Colorado.

Colorado Springs to be exact, close to the mountains. Where do you live?

Wayward Melody · 03-11-2009, 08:14 PM

Hehe, huge rats in the city.

I had a friend who used to live in the city and she swore she saw one with a six inch tail.

When I visited twice in the summer I swear every time I walked outside I felt I needed to back inside and take a shower.

I do indeed own it.

And Chris is in trouble? Wah Oh...

I Don't Dance · 03-11-2009, 10:23 PM

6 inches ?!?! I shuddered just reading that. Another thing I didn't like was the pigeons. From my perspective, pigeons are just rats with wings.

Wayward Melody · 03-11-2009, 11:07 PM

I like birds, even pigeons until they crap all over the car hood and then they are not so fun.

Hey, welcome Christi! I'm Red.

Yeesh. I couldn't do roaches. I don't think I've actually ever seen in a real rat in my entire life, so I can't say if they bother me. But mice don't really bother me.

Not unless there's a whole bunch scuttling away, then it's a little ukky. I do NOT do bugs tho. Insects of any kind, pretty much, is an issue. I'm the girl who'd rather call the neighbor over to deal with a spider than deal with it myself

Holy mother!

85%?! I'd probably die.

I visited L.A. once and the humidity was intense. I suppose I more or less got used to it by the end of the week that we were there, but holy, the first day I felt like I was having trouble breathing.

Mind you, it's pretty dry here, especially in the winter. I'm in Alberta, Canada, btw, if I haven't mentioned that before.

Nice. I like birds, but pigeons are irritating. We had a bunch hanging around or barn a few years ago, and they made SUCH a mess and were super irritating. When they were out on the grass we'd send the dog barking off after them to try and scare them away.

Wb, Red. You know roaches don't bug me. My friend lived in a crap apartment and she had them. They sprayed and sprayed and they always came back. It was gross but I grew not really be too bothered by them. He wasn't bothered by them at all, of course. Boys.

I Don't Dance · 03-12-2009, 09:01 AM

Hi Red!

Really nice to meet you.

Can't do roaches. Just can't do it. Really bugs of any kind. I have a vacuum on each floor of my home that is labeled a bug vacuum. I see a bug, it gets vacuumed up. It started out as just for moths, cause we get a ton of Miller moths, but I realized the bug gathering potential. I even have my son trained to suck them up with the vacuums too, though he isn't afraid and would much rather squish them for the fun of it.
