How did you occupy yourself without club chi? [Archive]

In the few days club chi was down, I was just about climbing the walls not knowing what to do with myself LOL. After many hours of trying to fix my computer thinking there was something wrong with it when I couldnt get on the site I decided that I better find something else to do.....

Its summer here so I spent most of the time laying in my kiddy pool with my husband and chi's (even though we dont all really fit in it), I bought the DVD of finding Nemo and watched that a couple of times in the aircon, visited friends and went to the outdoor cinema's to watch a classic 80's movie 'The Goonies'.

I would love to know what everyone else got up to in the couple of days without our addictive club chi...

OMG Terri, the movie "finding nemo" in this house plays like a broken record! :) We're always watching that movie, I think it's soooo cute! Hey, in the movie, when they finally reach Sydney, there's this white building, kind of shell looking, and there's opera music coming from it, what is that building?? Goonie's is a classic! It's a total must have! But I still don't have it. :wink:
Before when I didn't know what was going on, I kept checking on club chi, restarting my computer and all thinking it definately had to be me. But then I learned it wasn't. Whew!!!! So I played with the puppers, went to the swap meet and kmart today. Just hung around, waiting aimlessly, going bonkers without club chi! And I'm so glad it's back now! I also found myself looking at the same sites over and over, telling myself I haven't been there, just so I had something to do with my time! :roll: :)

It was made out of tiny square like tiles and wasnt as white as I thought it would be but it is bigger than I thought it would be.
I love Finding Nemo, I love Dory the forgetful blue tang - she is hilarious :D :lol:

Ahhhh, so that's what it is! I wonder how long it took to construct such a massive building out of little tiles. Now, why didn't I know that! So that's what Dory is? A blue tang?? She is so cute, and when they did the close ups, you can see her little freckles on her face!! Too cute! I wanted to crack Nemo in the butt for swimming on over and touching the butt/boat! :twisted: :D

HA, it was funny when that bucky beaver fish said "oh my gosh! Nemo's swimming out to sea!!!!" too cute, and the little octopus, "ohhh, you guys made me ink" She was a cutie!

Hehehe Terri, just the one's that I used most often. It was faster for me that way I think. :lol: Hahaha. I had to put the "<<<old school" just in case newbies thought I was a weirdo for putting them in ":'s". I knew I should have saved that other window that opened up on our old forums with the emoticons on them! Shuckey darn! :x

I was going nuts! I did a lot of surfing the web for stuff about Chi's. I also did some shopping. I found a great website for womens shoes called Zappo I must have looked for hours at shoes.

Yikes, I quoted my own post! Woopsie!
Renata, I don't think I could buy shoes online, or clothes. Anything that requires sizes for me. LOL. Sometimes my feet feel like being big, other times small! LOL :) :)

I had a little email to answer, had fun, cleaned out the kitchen to be painted (now done) and gave myself a manicure. Roman had fun with his Mommy, Sheba had extra pets, checked out my broken copier. Waited and checked for Club Chi. :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

I shop on line all the time. Sometimes I have to send things back. But it's about the only way I can find shoes. I have a big foot, size eleven! Course I'm 6'2.. so a smaller foot probably wouldn't look right.[

Thanks Sharon, you are fun to talk to yourself!!!

Wow Barb, you got a lot done, did you get your fish tank up yet?

Renata, you are tall. Have you ever been self conscious about your height? I am 5' 8" flat foot but with the shoes I wear I am usually about 5'10" or 5'11", I used to be very very self consious about my height and hated it. I have finally gotten over it though. My brother is 6'6".

LOL@ Terri!!! I was just testing it earlier today to see if it would work. I opted not to download any, I was reading something about those emoticon d/l places having lots of spyware. :o :shock: So the copy/paste thing will work. :)

So the copy/paste thing will work. Oh you are so right about getting spyware from the emoticons, I once downloaded some and it was a mistake and it took me a couple of hours to take off all the rubbish that they had put on my machine. There are probably some good ones that you can download with out all the spyware but 'once bitten twice shy' for me.
Copy and paste is great and easy once you know how so im just sticking with that.

Oh! Spywear? I had heard that term before, but didn't know a smiley could be a culprit! I've been wondering why a smiley was put in quarentine in my Norton Anti virus jar!?! I thought what could be wrong with a smiley? It was a happy one too. :cry: :D hahaha LOL LOL

Isn't it so different to watch things on tv when it's bigger. We had a small tv before but we upgraded because our old tv, most times the coloring was all green, many different shades of green! LOL.
Oh no Barb! Not quarantine for the smiley! Save him save him!

Aww! So poor Britney had to look at everything looking like a GREENIE!!! :lick: That's like me watching pizza being made and not being able to eat it! hahaha That's nice you got a new TV. We have a 27", and it's perfect for us. Some of our friend's have a big screen TV, and when their son was little, the two bigger kids played Nintendo (super Mario thing) and he was afraid of Mario and Luigi because they were bigger than he was! hahaha :D
