  1. One of my favorite movies is set in New Jersey: The Purple Rose of Cairo. There are a few movies I watch over and over when I need an escape from horrifying situations. This movie is one of them. I've watched it once a day for the past 141 days. I think that's 193 hours of New Jersey. 🙂 ***** Also, in 1996 I spent a couple weeks in Atlantic City at a relative's house. One of the best times I ever had! Their house was on a little street leading to the boardwalk which was where you could find me every moment I wasn't sleeping. I bought my first pair of rollerblades, took a few lessons from a rollerblade teacher (yes—that's a thing), and everyday just went flying up and down the boardwalk for hours. Here and there took breaks to sit on benches and read. ****** Where exactly are you in NJ?
  2. Ahh, beautiful Italia! I loved traveling there. Where are you exactly?
  3. Dear Vickie, To help expand your list—I'm willing to move to the moon. I have other reasons too. Hugs, Maytal
  4. 🥳 Confetti, balloons, flowers, hugs!
  5. A 45-minute drive from Fiverr headquarters (Kaplan street).
  6. Oh Vickie. . . I don't know what to say either. . . That's the way your husband wants it to be, so when you're ready for this, I'm here to join you in celebrating his life by sharing all the wonderful memories of him. I'm entirely sure that there are A LOT of us here thinking the same thing. I 've gotten to know you over the years here in the forum, and so whenever I see your name (simply your name--before even reading anything you write), I get a good feeling, and it makes me happy. You are warm, kind, funny, and smart. And I'm sure Jun was a wonderful person like you, because people usually get together with others who are like themselves. I will now read the posts you shared. Warm, warm hugs to you and to your children. The only way out is through, and it's OK to feel sad while you're going through. Feeling bad about feeling bad, just makes it worse. Plus it doesn't even help. I promise that after a while, this level of sadness will go away. How old are your three kids? I want to send them each something little in the mail. Please let me know if that's OK with you. If it is, I'll contact Fiverr CS and request permission to have you send me a message with your address. 🌻Maytal
  7. If your baby teeth do fall out at some point, might I suggest painting them as you described in number 3? I say this because my sources say the tooth fairy doesn't visit those over the age of 12. . . Although, my sources are Santa Clause and Mr. Sandman—and what their answers are, depends on their mood, which changes every few days.
  8. You say you 'used to be a pretty good pool player.' If you decided to start playing again with the intent of earning some cash, I suggest combing it with number 1—seems you'll earn even more. 😉
  9. My thoughts on what you wrote: 1 - Hopefully for you, your wife looks like Rita Wilson . . .? 2 - Not exactly the same, but I can relate somewhat cuz I have an illogical phobia of whales.
  10. My thoughts on what you wrote: 1 - Your thumb is crooked . . . I'm wondering what new hand gesture emojis you could invent . . . [ We could start with these:👍👎🫶🤘👌. Now draw the thumbs crooked . . ] 2 - 80 1st cousins . . . This is fascinating! I have so many questions: Do you like having so many cousins, or not? How many of them are you close to? Are there some you've never met? Etc. 3. Love it. First thing that popped into my head: Levin from Anna Karenina.
  11. My thoughts on what you wrote: 1 - The good thing about this, is that he was already a fool. It would be a shame if a genius got a concussion which changed him into an idiot. 2 - I just consulted all the cheeses I know—they all like you too. 3. That's the funniest and cutest thing I've ever heard—but only if what you were running away from was normal yet annoying for a child (vs violence and stuff).
  12. Hi zeus! So nice of you—thanks and cheers!. 🙂
  13. First of all thank you for sharing that video—it cracked me up!!! I'm super interested in /and like to research cultural traditions. Because of what you wrote, now I really want to learn about Advent in Norway. Not sure where to look online (most sources aren't reliable). When I get curious about something, I get very curious. What is this calendar with 24 gifts??? Is it a gigantic calendar with normal sized gifts? Or is the calendar normal sized, but with tiny gifts like candy, miniature things, and tiny dolls? Before I explode (with both curiosity + excitement --I feel like I'm about to get 24 gifts!), please tell me more and/or can u suggest where I can read about it? 🏵️
  14. Thank you so much 🙂 And if you see my last comment--it's also my birthday this evening!
  15. 1. Yes--this not only shows you were right, but also proves it! Congratulations on being right 😅 2. Only one present . . . but let's stick with your philosophy about birthdays (that you decide when and how it is). This means you can choose to get a present two times. Actually I have a feeling you'll choose a more interesting number, like 5 . . .or 15? 😁 And if you're gonna follow the Hebrew calendar plus you like presents . . . Why not add Hannukah? It's lighting candles for eight nights with a little present each night. So now you have at least two presents for two birthdays, plus eight presents on Hannukah = 10 presents per year. Homework: Make a list of stuff you want. Send it to: Santa Tooth fairy Your mom Your dad Easter Bunny (And post on all your social media + this forum maybe)
  16. GOOD + INTERESTING NEWS PS To @vickieito and @smashradio And to @miiila , @theratypist , @pptexperts , and @kawsar_log Thank you all for your birthday wishes. Almost all of you mentioned 'a bit late' or 'belated.' But here's something interesting . . . In my culture there's a Hebrew calendar in addition to the Gregorian one. My birthday on the Gregorian is June 4th. But I hadn't looked up what Gregorian date corresponds to the Hebrew date this year. I happened to find out just a few minutes ago, and . . . it's actually tonight! [On the Hebrew calendar, each date begins at sunset and ends on the next day's sunset.] It's now around 14:30, so I have around four hours to get in the mood and possibly plan something for tomorrow . . . 😁🎈🎈🥳
  17. Oy--that's some pickle! I just wanted to make a note of the date . . . next October let's do the Pharrell thing!
  18. The question: "Is your journey a bed of roses or not?" I don't believe a bed-of-roses journey (= without obstacles) can exist. So the only fact I can claim is: sometimes I get an order and work on my laptop while sitting on my bed.
  19. Thank you so much! Please see my other comment here (with the balloons at the end)—I mentioned you there . . .
  20. Hi Smashradio and Vickicieto! Thank you both so much for taking the time to write these two very thoughtful messages. I love them so so much! Thank you for being part of my special day, I won't forget it. 🙂 In case you're curious . . . I somehow managed to completely change the day: from what was going to be yet another depressing bday, to the best bday I've had. I actually do know how I did it (chose to change my thoughts in order to change my emotions), but I say 'somehow' because I'm amazed I was able to do the psychologically healthy thing. And of course since I changed my energy, vibe, whatever you wanna call it—what I put out, then came back in. So everyone called and I even got a surprise of a dozen balloons (which is really the only thing had wished for). And thank you very much to Adeel4500, Shawalshajib, uk100 for you lovely happy birthday wishes. Smashradio and Vickicieto, Adeel4500, Shawalshajib, and uk100 -- Can I ask you all a favor? Please write me back to answer this: when is your birthday? I'm at an age where I dread having to reveal the year . . . so of course if you don't want to reveal that, that's fine. I just need month + day. 🙂 🥳 🎈🎈🎈
  21. Hi everyone and thanks for reading my post. 🌻 Reason I'm posting here and not on my social media is because I like the community here, and also don't know anyone personally here . . . so it feels better to me. Today's my birthday and I have the blues. I've always felt blue on my birthday for no particular reason. But this past year has been a great year in every aspect. Extraordinarily great. This is because two major incidents occurred that completely changed me (first was four years ago, and second was two years ago). Thanks to them, I suddenly began and am continuing to grow and develop in ways I never imagined possible. I'm talking about psychological growth; Understanding myself and others; Intuition; Emotional intelligence; Etc. Well, a while ago—when I realized my birthday was coming up—it was just obvious to me that this year's Bday would be the first Bday which I would actually be happy about plus actively celebrate plus not avoid (by sleeping through it, turning off my phone, not getting on social media). So how is it that even with the great past year + the 'new me' do I have the Bday blues? The big day (June 4th) just started at midnight (it's around 6 am now where I live). Well, three days ago I found out I have to start looking for a new apartment (and I just moved to this one three months ago). This is depressing for many reasons. And then two days ago me and my boyfriend broke up. I didn't really have any reaction to both things. Then yesterday, I suddenly realized that both things happened. So sad about one plus so anxious about the other. Both things together . . . suddenly really upset. So I cancelled the party my family had planned for today because I knew I wouldn't be able to find the energy to pick myself up within just 1-2 days. That's the story. I'll be fine soon enough (I mean that I won't be upset about the move or the guy for long). But right now I'm most upset because this birthday has gone to waste. [BTW Can't change my mind about the party cuz my family lives far from me, plus I've been awake all night and will be tired and need to sleep in a few hours.] From being on this forum for years, I know there are many, many, many people here who are special, nice, funny, creative and emotionally intelligent. So . . . I don't know. . . It would make me happy to read anything you feel like writing. I made sure to do the following: From 11:55 pm on June 3rd till 12:05 am on June 4th, I played Happy by Pharrell, on a loop, and danced the whole time—even though I'm depressed. I have a feeling that your comments (hopefully there will be comments . . .) will be a continuation of the Pharrell thing. Thanks, Mae 🐧
  22. Thank you—it's usually the only thing I have to offer.
  23. Is it because I wrote in English? Or because it's too weird to make sense on a Friday night (when most people have a beer in one hand, and another beer in the other)? If it's the former, let me know—I'm happy to explain here through drawings. 🙂
  24. What caused this? My guess is that one of the following things happened: a. You moved to a new apartment without a chimney, so this is how Santa delivered your presents. b. It was a test. Are you trustworthy enough to deserve having your gigs placed where they'll get orders? c. You're supposed to take the numerical value of the sum of these earnings . . . then . . ummm, I don't know . . . it's a clue somehow, on a treasure hunt, somehow. d. It's what the ghost of Christmas future wanted to show you, but later realized that more earnings is actually a good thing. But then, the guy at Fiv Headquarters (who had done the ghost a solid), forgot to delete it. And now it's just that Fiv is too embarrassed to admit they made this particular mistake. ********************* Or . . . It might be a combination of two or more of the above. While we're waiting for CS to do their thing, maybe someone else here would like to continue this thread by explaining how for example, b) might have led to c), or whatever? [Whatever combination and sequence seems most logical 😉 to you.]
