I need to move towns!!!

used to be you needed a huge boom box on your shoulder now you need your pants around your knees

know what you mean, only for me...it was the other way around! The town I just left (not for this reason) had all the yuppie age folks in it and they wore the most disgusting and trashy clothes! I mean the men with pants hanging around their hips and underwear sticking out, the over weight women with skimpy, tiny, TIGHT little tube tops or spagetti strap tank tops on...TIGHT leggings, shorts shorts...everything showing. The elementary age kids were the nicest dressed! And even then..flip flops 365 days out of the year no matter the weather! Any mall or store there was like this! But I guess things change and the day of looking nice went out with the century change! They probably look at me and say, "oh look at her..she is dressed what they used to call "nicely" and nothing is showing?" Yeah, gotta just laugh!

Perhaps you should get roller skates?

hi an ne well come to Gold Crest retirtement centere if we are not pushing our walkers, others are pushing or movin wheelc hairs. just be very grateful you can walk on your own two legs as mosto fus would love tol be able to do thatloddly we are in the mist of Little Saigon here in Garden Grove C. the boat people who fled Vietnam with just the clothes on their backs se ttled here in S outhern Caliofornia and tool over a 25 squar blocks of Garden Brove. gentle kidnly quiet , polite, well mannered they make excellent neighbros and a plus their elderly are not stuffed in centers of nursin homw, they live with their children..old people are respected with the Vietnamese. we could learn from them. lol lol

I want one of those scooters. They're so much fun. To fit in here, I'd need half a dozen tattoos (preferably of Japanese characters or those Celtic spiky things and around my neck ), two divorces, three illegitimate children, one of those leg bracelets that mean I'm being tracked by the police and a girlfriend with a push-chair, spandex leggings, huge earrings and more make-up than a Miss World pageant.

Hiya Anne, Was watching a program yesterday and a Danish Woman remarked that she was leaving Spain the next Day with her Husband as where she lives in Denmark there is only peace and quiet, no problems and no pickpockets either bit hard to believe I found but maybe she is right. Here if you have a shopping Trolley with Wheels you get stared out a lot until they get used to you it seems it´s something shameful to have anything like that on wheels except for Pushchairs also been there done that. No Roller Skates allowed here huge fines very difficult for People in Wheelchairs also almost impossible. Well I suppose you can´t have everything can you lol? No People here with those Scooters only one and she has a little Dog so she is like a kind of Star round where I lived as I have just moved further out.xxx

I think you and your kids need to go get some roller skates. Then you will be rolling right along.

I think to fit into my town I would have to be a treehugger and a mallfan. I live in a town full of trees which I love. Oh, and a lot of parks. The mall here is very popular. I hope you enjoyed your shower and hairwash. I need to do the same. Should take a break and go do that. Hehe

I need some roller blades to get around here. The buses are to slow, the traffic on the roads are crazy and to congested but with a pair of roller skates or blades I would get around fast. Sounds like your town is full of older or impaired people that have a hard time getting around

Right at this moment I think that I neeed a thick skinPeople will stop me and discuss - quite loudly- what they like or don't ike about my son's politics. I have my reaction down to a fine art now. I smile, pat them on their arm and and ask God to bess them and then, move on - very quickly I do not enter into a discussion.

Hiya hatley, In Santa Ana all that is going on? We have the Latin Kings here still and other kinds of Gangs going on and the Police here are stretched full time to keep up with the trouble they make and well of course other People mainly through having one over the top though and the other stuff you know. We have seen what is happening in Juarez as well it´s just so awful it´s so hard to understand why they are allowed to go on with all that.xxx

I guess for our town. Most of the people here are really nice and friendly. A lot of people are always smiling and seem so happy. So I guess as long as a person is having a good day people fit in well.

Hello, Anne18! Yes. You have made me laugh! You are reminding me of my two new friends. They are my coapplicants. We met yesterday. After our interview, we decided to take our lunch together. The other applicants seemed in a hurry to go home. Maybe because it was a Saturday. While eating, we asked for each other's cellphone number. I discovered that my cellphone is oldest model, the cheapest also. I laughed and told them to get ready because I'll buy the most expensive cellphone once I am already working in Australia. I told them "I'll get even." We did enjoy that moment together. It seemed that we already met each other a few years back. We're hoping that we'll see each other again on Monday. There will be another interview on Monday. The employer will only contact those who are shortlisted. I feel I am one of them. I am so excited!

Then you need to start to have one. Maybe the grocery is far from your place. My sister lives in Whitby but I think she just walk to go to a store to buy a grocery.

I need wrinkles, rflol. I live in a senior community, but my skin has not caught up to my age...yet.I could probably use a few more pounds, too. Most everyone here is chunkier than me. Maybe the holiday eating will take care of that ;-)

Really, I have to say that the reason that I don't really fit in here is because of the fact that the only kinds of shoes that I wear are tennis shoes because of the fact that they are the most comfortable for me. However, whenever I go out, I find that most of the other women that are out are wearing heels of all kinds. I just can't wear them because of an ankle injury that I had when I was a child and I'd rather not risk my ankle for my vanity.

Hiya spike, Me too to fit in I would also need a couple of tattoos not sure what kind but I only like the ones that you can wash off lol. A lot of Women here try to dress to fit in with Clothes that don´t suit them at all but who am I to say that they should´nt? I only am the way I am and I don´t feel the need to follow any kind of Fashion in particular either. xxx

To totally fit in my town, I need to be a health-nut and enroll myself in a gym. There are lots of gyms around here, and people seem to know everybody by the gym that they belong. Of course us that don't belong to any, don't know anybody else.

HA HA HA LOL, at least you made me laugh a bit. In my town you don't see to much of that, it seems like here everyone is always in a hurry. People will literally push you out of the way if they could either physically, with a car or with anything they could get their hands on. On Friday (black friday) I heard in the news horrible stories about people pushing each other, hitting/fighting just to get things at the store. Shopping is suppose to be fun and exciting, not to be dangerous and to fear for ones life. That is scary, that is why I never go out to the stores on black friday. Everyone around my town is always in a hurry don't matter the age, young or old. The funny part is that the old folks are usually the worst.
