Once upon a time there was a little yellow toad crying in the forest. The good witch came along and asked the little yellow toad, "Why are you crying, my friend?" The little yellow toad said, "All my friends are green and I'm yellow. I want to be green like all my friends... sniff... sniff." The good witch replied, "No problem!" and she tapped the little yellow toad with her magic wand and the yellow toad turned green... all except for his private parts, which remained yellow. "Oh no," exclaimed the little toad. "I can't go through life all green except for my private parts! You have to make me green all over!" The good witch said, "Sorry, I don't do private parts. You will have to go see the wizard!" So, off the little toad went to see the wizard. The good witch continued on into the forest, where she came upon a little brown squirrel crying very hard. "Why are you crying, little squirrel?" the good witch asked. "Because," said the little brown squirrel, "All my friends are red and I want to be red too... sniff... sniff." "No problem!" said the good witch, and she tapped the little brown squirrel and turned him red... all except for his private parts, which remained brown. "Oh no!" exclaimed the squirrel, "I can't go through life all red except for my private parts! You have to make me red all over!" The good witch said, "Sorry, I don't do private parts. You will have to go see the wizard!" But the squirrel started crying harder and said, "But I'm new around here! I don't know the wizard! How will I find him?" And the good witch said, "Oh that's easy! Just follow the yellow dick toad..."
God creates Adam, and soon Adam is complaining that he's all alone in the Garden of Eden. So God says, "OK, I'll make you a companion, a beautiful creature who'll cook and clean for you. It will be able to converse intelligently on any subject and never ever complain or argue." Adam says, "That sounds great." God says, "The only thing is, it will cost you an arm and a leg." Adam says, "Damn, that's expensive. What can I get for a rib?"
Social Security will mail me a copy of an official document from a lawyer who represented my parents in their fight to sue/secure funding for my emotional-growth boarding school. The lawsuit isn't the important part... Lol. Essentially we submitted a document to them (Social Security), which I thought for the longest time was an affidavit but that's not the term - it was called something else by the representative at Social Security - and anyway, it substantiates my status as a disabled adult child. That means I was disabled before I was 18 (before I was in college or as it pertains to my appeal for financial aid i.e. the period of my transcript before my doctor's note's diagnosis) and before I was able to establish a work history. So it means I'm disabled without a doubt. What I'm trying to do with that "affidavit", among like 5 other documents that vouch for different time periods during my college career, is prove I was not healthy when I made the decision to either flunk or drop out of many many courses over the years. The only reason it matters is because when they award a student loan for example, they don't want people who sign up for 4 courses, get aid in the amount granted someone with 4 courses (why it's based on number of courses can only be attributed to the ridiculous cost of textbooks...), only to drop 3 of the 4, take the money and run. I also have a lot of units under my belt. I have to explain that it took awhile to learn how to coordinate illness and learning. And I had/have a bachelor's that I told you guys about which was fraudulent. I learned this week the alma mater for the degree (who I came clean with) has the vice president of something or other working with the university's attorney or legal team to figure out what course of action they will take. I'm hoping they'll revoke it because then all I have to do is explain what happened to the community college where I continue to study, and also change my degree status on my application for federal aid. Anyway, I think it's all do-able. It's just waiting now. But I think the community college where I study will like my reason for appeal, and I'm pretty sure my alma mater will take away the degree. One step closer...
Excellent news Soul. You know I a rooting for you. I think all will turn out to your advantage. xxx Sorry, I read your cards and they were so positive. xxxx
Lol. I used to like astrology. that's sort of in the same hemisphere of thought... and that's not my birthday. I'm 40... Lol!

A man was on a date with the easiest girl in town. After they parked the car, she wasted no time in climbing into the back and encouraging him to put his hand inside her knickers. The petting grew heavier and she began moaning in pleasure until she suddenly cried, "Ow, that ring is hurting me!" He replied, "That's no ring - that's my watch!"
