Spending time with the woman I love.



You mean besides going back to Iceland? I'm not really dreading anything. The thing concerns me most would be the weather. 120F and 5% humidity doesn't sound at all comfortable.

How's 99 degrees and 20% humidity...ugh...that is exactly what we had today. Not Vegas-like weather at all.

Sounds slightly better than what I described but, not by much. Does the humidity actually get up to 20%? It didn't all the time I was there.

 

[CoolMom6]

yeah, it will get humid for a few days sometimes without any actual rain in the valley; that's annoying.

What really annoys you?
Besides cranky girlfriends and kids hyped up on sugar and caffeine?

One of the things that annoys me most is when people ignore me, lie to me, lie about me and generally treat me like dirt. Another thing I hate is when people do those same things to people I love. Computers sometimes annoy me also, especially if they are M$ Windoze machines.

Uh... Sorry about that.

I didn't mean to ignore you. It had moved on to a new page by the time I checked this thread.

How long might it take to get a green card?

I'm not sure how long it'll take. I've heard it can take up to 2 years but, Since I would apply here in Iceland and the embassy here isn't very busy, it could be shorter. I hope it is.

No problem, buddy. Just giving you a hard time!

One last question (maybe) before I turn 50 in 10 days and have to leave the fab 40's.

What is your favorite "summer vacation" memory from when you were a child?

Hey, it got up to 35% the other day, and then 42% and then it hailed!!

It was the weirdest thing.

But it just usually stays around 110 degrees F. on any given summer day. Betcha can't wait.
(Sorry, poor honey!)

I grew up in Oklahoma and my summer vacations were all pretty much the same. We always came back to Iceland to visit my grandparents. It's hard to pick a favorite when they're all so similar.

My favorite vacation was during spring break when we went to the Grand Canyon and Petrified Forrest. The thing I remember most from that trip was when we stopped at a gas station and they had a monkey that I got to play with.

Btw, I don't think anyone is going to throw you out when you turn 50.

Ice falling out of the sky in the desert?
Actually, I am looking forward to it, not just to being some place that's not cold and wet but, mostly I'm looking forwared to seeing you.

 

[CoolMom6]

Hi!

So, are you prepared for the grueling desert vacation? Bring your rattlesnake bag and your scorpion repellent?

Is eating catfish a sin?

Have you ever participated in a moral or political protest, (if so tell us about it)?

Had you been born the opposite sex, what would you like
your name to have been?

Your adult child has been convicted of a felony and confides to you he/she is completely guilty of this and more. Your child expresses no regret or intention of repentance, do you stand in line at the local jail on visiting day, if so do you bring them items they ask for like candy, cigarettes?

Is eating catfish a sin?

I presume you are referring to the rules of clean and unclean foods in the OT. The Torah says that anything that has fins and scales is clean and acceptable to eat. I've never seen a catfish up close but, I presume that like other fish, it has fins and scales and so, eating it is not a sin.

Have you ever participated in a moral or political protest, (if so tell us about it)?

Yes, I have a few times. I've signed a few online petitions. The last one was to protest the removal of Terri Schiavo's feeding tube. The last actual protest (where I stood holding a sign) I took part in was to protest the building of a new hydroelectric power plant in Iceland. It's being built in a place that I and many others believe should be made into a national park. (Click here to see pictures of it.)

Had you been born the opposite sex, what would you like
your name to have been?

My real name is Kristinn which means the same as the English name Christian. I'm named after my aunt Kristin (my parents were hoping for a girl). Had I been a girl, that would have been my name. I like my name and it's meaning so I would have liked that too.

Your adult child has been convicted of a felony and confides to you he/she is completely guilty of this and more. Your child expresses no regret or intention of repentance, do you stand in line at the local jail on visiting day, if so do you bring them items they ask for like candy, cigarettes?

I would of course visit my child on every visiting day. Wheather I would bring the things they asked for depends on what it would be but, I would probably bring most things.
