| Hopefully i wont be all stiff and achy since i might have done a bit too much today, but i was eager to get in and do some gardening! |
|
| While I was making dinner, I had a furball following me around, talking to me. |
|
| And eventually, I came to realize that I was not the genial gentleman of my imaginings, but I was indeed a cad. |
|
| I was debarred up to June 1999 from speaking out under the Official Secrets Act. |
|
| Sometimes, when I was playing in a football game, I would stare at Susan and pretend she came to cheer me on. |
|
| As to what magic is all about, I was always given to the believe that magic was mostly just about bragging and pretending. |
|
| I was going to make a Cold War analogy here, but, let's face it, that would be ridiculously pretentious. |
|
| I was into more than my fair share of debauchery and mindless consumption of drugs and alcohol. |
|
| I was walking along the Venice Beach walk when I passed two gentlemen wearing suits. |
|
| On the bus on my way home, I was very polite to an elderly gentleman by offering him my side of the seat where he'd be more comfortable. |
|
| Ever since I was a wee lad of five, it's been imprinted on my brain to be chivalrous and gentlemanly. |
|
| I was inspired by the many debossed letterpressed cards I've come across that to me have a quiet snow-like feel to them. |
|
| I was thrilled to hear that John and the Staggering Statistics have released their full-length debut recording for free online. |
|
| I was reminded of that business fact of life when looking at some really nice new services that debuted this week. |
|
| I was surprised, however, at the quilter who responded that she never pre-washed her fabrics because she liked the puckered look. |
|
| I was convinced that someone was slipping me regular coffee instead of the decaff. |
|
| However, I was moved down to Newcastle as a baby, therefore I have a Geordie accent. |
|
| I was involved in the drafting of one early version of the Georgian constitution. |
|
| Upon hearing of their decease, I was worried that I would never hear their type of unique song craft again. |
|
| Whilst I was doing this, my Mother said she heard a voice calling something, and the dog's ears pricked up. |
|
|
|
| Whenever I was with him, guilt crept through my every inch of me, making my skin prickle and hair stand on end. |
|
| Suddenly I was sick of being cold and wet, and I just didn't care enough to bother with decency. |
|
| It's as good a day as I've had in football, and I was lucky enough to have some decent days as a player. |
|
| I was 30 years old, and I performed it in German, as was the practice at the time. |
|
| I was thinking of inviting these two brilliant Germanophiles to join us here. |
|
| She laughed at me, Russell wrote, when I behaved like a don or a prig, and when I was dictatorial in conversation. |
|
| Some years ago, I was in Judge Kessler's courtroom and admired the crisp decisiveness of her judicial temperament. |
|
| I hated how he was being so nice about it, instead of just decking me and yelling at me about how I was being stupid and selfish. |
|
| I was sorely tempted to deck him, just to make certain he knew I wasn't batting on the same side as he was. |
|
| I was leaning out with my heavy caliber machine gun primed, waiting for the order to shoot. |
|
| I was gradually waking up this morning when I moved my left leg and suddenly got a really bad cramp. |
|
| I was getting a really bad sensation in my fingers and it felt like I was walking on gravel. |
|
| I was going to get him in the nose but when he saw my fist coming he moved. |
|
| I was probably just using this as an excuse for getting away with something naughty. |
|
| Ryan told me he saw that kid, Will, coming down the hall that I was trying to get back at. |
|
| I was terrified but I didn't dare say I hadn't eaten them before and with some difficulty got them down. |
|
| I suppose I was selfish, in that everything was geared towards getting on in my career. |
|
| It's hard to know, but I was in my 30s and some of the other were getting on too, but it's hard to say. |
|
| You know I was the first in space, not these astronauts, but I couldn't get the ideas over to the people. |
|
| I felt that I had never really managed to get through to him what I was doing, why I was doing it, it just didn't really feel right with him. |
|
|
|
| My father believed in primogeniture, where the eldest son gets everything, so as the third son I was, relatively speaking, on my own. |
|
| I was anticipating a marvelous story with a princess waiting for her prince in her royal castle. |
|
| It was plain as soon as I was ushered into each man's presence that these were not mere business leaders, but princes of the blood. |
|
| At 60 I was given the princely sum of 9 pence per week which has now gone up to 10 pence per week. |
|
| I did not bother to look at the beautiful details and decoration, I was so angry and on the verge of tears. |
|
| I was told last night that this storyboarded ending was only ever used to decoy the studio away from the real ending, which is the one they shot. |
|
| I was told that Mr Young is in prison in the USA awaiting trial on charges of fraud. |
|
| Like an POW in a British prison camp, I was gonna have to stay on my guard. |
|
| I was going to leave my glamorous life behind in this rich and prep place, back to the slums and ghettos of the slowly decaying city in the east. |
|
| Perhaps I was particularly sensitive to his plight, having watched my parent's generation laid waste by decrepitude and death. |
|
| With its pristine white walls and hardwood floors, I was very envious of him and his place. |
|
| I was once working a private function, and four of us were slammed with about 150 cars arriving at the same time. |
|
| I was lucky because I had a nice old landlady who thought I was nice and she sold me the property as a private sale. |
|
| I was hired to turn the company around, and my team has dedicated itself to that effort ever since. |
|
| In fact, I was even sent to an Episcopalian private school for my middle and upper school years. |
|
| I was most disturbed by his words concerning the dedication in William's book. |
|
| Last year I was really frustrated in the giant slalom and almost gave it up. |
|
| At the start of the last race, the giant slalom, I was tired and didn't want to ski any more. |
|
| I haven't seen him since I was 12, but I remember he used to deejay in basements. |
|
| As I recall, the first bill to remove the appeal right to the Privy Council was introduced by the National Party when I was in this House. |
|
|
|
| I bought a house that needed renovating and there was no way I was putting gib board and roofing iron on. |
|
| Really, previously I was in a majority of group members in de-emphasizing foreign policy. |
|
| One month ago, the giddiness was severe and I was bedridden for about four days. |
|
| By the time I was finally able to rip open that dang plastic cover, the giddiness was oozing out of my ears. |
|
| I was beaming on the inside with happiness, on the verge of giddiness, as the clock ran down. |
|
| I was appointed Professor of Mathematics to raise the profile of probability theory in the Faculty of Mathematics. |
|
| For a moment I was blinded by pain and I pulled back, drawing my arm against my chest. |
|
| I was finishing an undergraduate degree at Sydney University in 1975, and heard many theories as the academic year drew to a close. |
|
| I should probably do one myself and put it in the same envelope and see how right I was. |
|
| When it came to the end of the day, though, I was more than happy to draw the curtains and shut the day out. |
|
| I was a first year teacher, on probation, and I didn't get particularly good classes. |
|
| To my surprise, I found a letter in the mail stating that I was on academic probation. |
|
| But instead, I was entirely drawn into the teenage drama happening next door. |
|
| Over the course of the week I spent with Marcon, I was drawn into the slavish drudge work that haute cuisine demands. |
|
| Of course since I was stitching after so long I drew blood and then I realized that I had forgotten all about the thimble once again. |
|
| Indeed, the bus drew up to my alighting stop when I was just ten metres from it. |
|
| I could feel his mind trying to probe into my thoughts, to see what I was thinking. |
|
| I was tempted to ask him where he had been but what right did I have to probe into his life? |
|
| Last year, I was living in Chicago and looking for a third job to supplement my freelance writing and catering gigs. |
|
| A bit of a problem child, I was shipped off to Missouri Military Academy in the middle of my sophomore year of high school. |
|
|
|
| There was a bunch of girls who were giggling and standing by the door of the rest room when I was there. |
|
| I could hear kids at the top of the hill just up the road from where I was, their laughs and giggles making me want to join them. |
|
| I was under the impression that a male gigolo was the only kind you could get, the female equivalent going by many and varied names. |
|
| I'm beginning to suspect I was abducted by aliens on Monday night and subjected to a series of invasive medical procedures. |
|
| And it's interesting, because I was uncertain whether they were going to proceed forward. |
|
| So many people envied me, but they didn't realize that I was just a pretty bird in a gilded cage. |
|
| Since I was well back in the procession of creeping vehicles, it took me a while to figure out what the hold-up was. |
|
| Needless to say, I was shocked when I saw this source of pride defaced with black spray paint. |
|
| After I made my payments, I was defaulted again and just last week I asked to how to file a complaint and the person hung up on me! |
|
| Yesterday they posted the tentative list of accepted ACET proctors, and I was one of them! |
|
| This past Monday night I was proctoring a first-year computer science exam. |
|
| I was quite disappointed to discover a rather defeated looking Devon taking a little rest on my locker. |
|
| Due to the flame I received I was wondering if you could all do me a ginormous favor and point out all my typos and mistakes that you catch. |
|
| I was top scoring defenceman and defenceman of the year a couple of times and then I don't even get a contract offer. |
|
| I didn't want to go back to this dreaded school where I felt like I was in a cage and being prodded at with a hot iron stick. |
|
| Certainly I was no technical prodigy, but I was comfortable around machinery. |
|
| Just yesterday, I was in a store that shall be nameless and got the bored Saturday girl routine. |
|
| The worst moment was when I rang up one day to take out my daughter and my girl refused to let me see her, because of the mess that I was in. |
|
| I remember, when I was about eleven, I went away for the weekend with the Girl Guides. |
|
| I was barely out of bed the next morning when we had a troupe of Girl Guides turn up to look at the house. |
|
|
|
| I was figuring that he was not confident of winning such an election, and so deferred the poll to the latest practicable time. |
|
| When I used to think that I'd keep my young, girlish figure forever, I was really fooling myself. |
|
| I was once a Girl Scout, and I had learned to walk, trot, and provide basic care for a horse. |
|
| Every once in a while they'd know I was having a problem because I punched myself in the leg because I learned about pain deferment. |
|
| As I said, my brother was in the army and I had no father, which meant I had a deferment because I was the support of my mother. |
|
| At that stage I was racing a production car, where we were not allowed to alter the mechanical specifications in any way. |
|
| Like I was saying, we just need to productize our deliverables so that we can optimize our solution cycles. |
|
| The medical team had a defibrillator with them and I was resuscitated within a few minutes. |
|
| I went out to rent a video and as I was browsing saw other sad gits like myself who were obviously single. |
|
| I used to wear these big hoop earrings, my hair down to my hips, super-tight jeans and blouses with embroidery, like I was some kind of gitana. |
|
| This prof is the Chair of my Qualifying Exam committee and I was worried about how this would effect my exam. |
|
| On the second day there I was given the opportunity to speak to children in the afternoon at the local junior school. |
|
| You didn't mention what fumes were given off by the overheated coating, but I was told at the time that it was similar to mustard gas. |
|
| Adam and I were discussing their door-slamming, right before I was about to take out a bag of rubbish to the dumpster. |
|
| Cloaked in the frumpiness of my day job and steeped in the acrid odor of discontent, I was hardly dressed for a wine tasting. |
|
| During my first year on the journal as a staff member, I was frustrated by all of the inefficiencies in our processes. |
|
| I was faced with frustrated people who watched their favorite notions and practitioners of spiritualism go down in flames. |
|
| I often found it difficult to bust my moves, and I was frustrated to see how many people were just standing around taking up space. |
|
| Walking out the door after the end of the meeting one of the girls turned to me and said that she had thought I was an FTM when I first came in. |
|
| The lies he fed me to achieve this were cunning and elaborate, and indeed, I was fooled. |
|
|
|
| I was worried about leaving Rob with them, in case his simple brain was fuddled by their complex arguments of Just Because, All Right? |
|
| Because I was baking cupcakes, I asked you if you would prefer cake, which would actually be easier for me. |
|
| I was glad we'd specified the latter, since the restaurant's smoking section, separated from the main dining area, was a little fuggy. |
|
| At first, I was sick of fulling up buckets and pouring the water into the sink. |
|
| I was driving full on back from Tesco, and at the traffic lights, in the car next to me, was Prince Edward. |
|
| Having just one guitarist, I was extremely impressed at how he managed to create such a large full-bodied sound. |
|
| I was leaning on him, resting my chin on his shoulder, his curly grey hair tickling my ear. |
|
| By the time he had show us drawing down, controlled bending, fullering, flatting in mild steel, I was the proud owner of a fire rake. |
|
| When I first visited I was eating the curry and naan with my fingers and Munir, the owner, asked me where I was from. |
|
| Since he didn't re-raise, I was even more confident that he didn't already have a full house. |
|
| As if life isn't enough of a curse, I was afflicted with Tourette Syndrome. |
|
| I was cursing like a sailor and so unnerved my husband that he left the room. |
|
| I was fortunate enough to be born with good muscle shape and fullness, particularly in my biceps. |
|
| I was savoring the lengthy period of feeling the cushioned and firm fullness of her lips as they had seemingly massaged mine in our endeavor. |
|
| I thought I was going to a movie, and I thought that when the curtain went up I would see a movie screen. |
|
| After the introduction before the curtain, Scene 1 was the same as Scene 2 of Act I was. |
|
| I was shown into one of these and curtly introduced to the masseur, a man lavishly oiling his hands over a masseur's bench. |
|
| I was working full-time and doing things for Josh and rushing about on the school run. |
|
| I was trying to bowl a low full toss and I was watching the batsman's movement as well. |
|
| I couldn't even think up of a word bad enough to insult her with, I was fulminating with so much rage. |
|
|
|
| They transferred me to three different correction facilities inside. I was in a really cush one at first. |
|
| He sat down on a cushy chair near the couch I was propped up on, my shoes on the concrete floor. |
|
| I was sitting in Panera Bread last night, fumbling around with proxies in an attempt to get around their ham-fisted network filtering. |
|
| I was feeling really dizzy, and no, it wasn't from the loud music and the fumes of B.O. wafting off of the dancing morons. |
|
| The fumes of the soup went into my mouth, and I was able to taste bits and pieces of it, and I liked what I did taste. |
|
| One minute I was on the ground and the next I was getting to my feet, screaming cusses over Jamal's harsh laughter. |
|
| Seriously, folks, I was beside myself with nerves, and I ain't a stranger to a cuss at the best of times. |
|
| I was cussing them and swearing never to watch the show again because the fix was in. |
|
| It really didn't take that long for me to realise that I was having fun, for the first time in ages I was enjoying myself. |
|
| I was really impressed with the ease of use, ergonomics, and functionality built into the web meeting application. |
|
| So I was not surprised to discover that there are still problems with the tax and customs departments. |
|
| Even when I was training, the emphasis was always on the basics and fundamentals. |
|
| I grew up within the fundamentalist framework, but, even as a young child, I was a bit different. |
|
| It does affect you, though fundamentally, I'm not different from the way I was a year or 10 years ago. |
|
| Last week, these two young cuties showed up at my local skate park and I was embarrassed by the serious lack of game I witnessed. |
|
| After wandering around the altered room, I felt as if I was in a fairground funhouse where floors and walls are designed to discombobulate. |
|
| So when I was instructed to put my haggling skills to work and go in search of some bargains in York city centre I was in a blind funk. |
|
| I was asked the other day during an interview what I do personally when I get into a blue funk. |
|
| The music was funky, but didn't inspire impromptu dancing the last night I was there which was a shame. |
|
| I was twelve and I rode on the back of a big boy's bicycle flat into a funnel cloud that picked us up and threw us clean into the ditch. |
|
|
|
| One time I was forced to get into a furious argument to stop my cover being blown. |
|
| I could see that he took a couple of furtive glances at what I was doing, but he wasn't really watching. |
|
| A couple of years ago I was talking with a law school colleague about cyberlaw and the people who study it. |
|
| I was the only cybernetician in sub-zero weather in possession of both hat and gloves. |
|
| She appeared bored, and I knew she thought I was making a lot of unnecessary fuss. |
|
| When London beckoned me back, I was too busy working to be fussed with lessons. |
|
| As I was folding up the futon this morning I looked over to see Mike making off with my cell phone in his mouth. |
|
| I was about to give up after about 15 minutes when a cycle rickshaw appeared by my side from nowhere. |
|
| I had, admittedly, written a book with Watts Wacker on the future, but I neither knew that futurism was a discipline, nor that I was a futurist. |
|
| Of course I had to fiddle and futz with the images until I was satisfied, hence the delay. |
|
| I was wheeled out of post-op fuzzyheaded, with an eye patch covering my poor abused peeper, clutching a bag of drugs. |
|
| The next alteration came when I was supposed to bring a dish to a company potluck. |
|
| I was fascinated to watch her plying her trade to the many young girls eager for her wares. |
|
| I was an eager beaver when I first took up golf and the bug is biting hard again. |
|
| At the agencies I was able to contact, I found that a lot of eager beavers had already filled up the slots in most of them. |
|
| There was a time I was on the phone to the potteries in Stoke every hour about these tiles. |
|
| I would shape pots at the potter's wheel, which in the days when I was a teenager was a tool you moved by kicking. |
|
| I was being flippant and there was a teacher who I liked a lot and he clumped me round the earhole. |
|
| I come from a good family, my father was an honorable man, and I was the lord of one of the richest earldoms in the kingdom. |
|
| I was tired of losing those I cared about most to an early grave, I was tired of hearing about death upon death upon death. |
|
|
|
| After her difficult pregnancy she thought it odd that I was gadding about catching international planes so late into my own. |
|
| I was going to have an early night but just before we retired Linda switched the kitchen light on and blew the lighting fuse. |
|
| In my head, I was the gorgeous young thing running around with the aged pouchy bachelor, and it was the best relationship I'd ever been in. |
|
| I took Dutch drops for it, and poulticed it by day, and I was bad for three weeks. |
|
| If I was cynical I would believe that he was trying to frighten us into compliance with his own authoritarian, dictatorial agenda. |
|
| I was quite happy with that, so I couldn't believe it when the dog pounced on my dog. |
|
| For example, I was trying to mash up some potatoes, and I guess I was pounding the potatoes too hard. |
|
| Eventually, contact was made with a fish and I was quite pleased to record another eleven pounder. |
|
| Then I was able to get his own gaffer tape on him until the police arrived. |
|
| I was actually pleasant sort of but then his companion came in to view and I nearly gagged on my own spit. |
|
| We got to the bar, I was gagging for a beer, as I hadn't time for one at the club. |
|
| In 1989 I was among those who petitioned the establishment of Gagauz and Bulgarian music courses. |
|
| But as I was pouring a drink for someone standing next to him I finally saw it. |
|
| I was still a bad kid with an attitude and a pout that Mom always threatened to make into a bookshelf. |
|
| In fact, I was quickly and forcibly won over by the band's earnest performance. |
|
| I was one of those city editors, and I well recall his great earnestness, amounting almost to moral indignation. |
|
| I was in Washington last week to watch the swearing in of the 109th Congress and the gag rule is very much in effect in Congress. |
|
| It was certainly not because, as a smiling friend suggested, I imagined I was thereby adding to the gaiety of nations. |
|
| Just when I was about to lose all hope a loud ear-piercing scream echoed through the darkness. |
|
| What I hadn't realised, though was that it had happened pretty much as soon I was out of earshot round the corner. |
|
|
|
| I was out of sight of the wall, but not, I thought, out of earshot, and I did not want either of the horses to neigh loudly. |
|
| But there I was, mindful of the conditional significance of maintaining gainful employment. |
|
| Luckily, I was able to get the powdered sugar all cleaned up before that happened. |
|
| I was all gaitered up but a lot of the day was spend jumping from log to grass tussock and back to log. |
|
| A few minutes later, after I dabbed on some foundation and lip gloss, I was ready to go. |
|
| I dabbled a little bit with smoking when I was at school, but quickly gave it up because I did not like it. |
|
| John was a dab hand at transport and logistics and I was an expert with maps. |
|
| It turns out that they had received an anonymous letter claiming that I was a dab hand with photoshop and had deliberately altered the photo! |
|
| I was astonished to hear on the radio that a laxative can be used to remove earwax. |
|
| I was a child of the suburbs, I felt cheated and robbed of my birthright of ease and pleasure. |
|
| They kept floating upwards and at first, even with my weight belt on, I was powerless to stop them. |
|
| I could hear myself snapping at my daughter and bullying my husband but I was powerless to stop. |
|
| I was just getting ready to ask if I could join their gallant team, when the two remaining climbers showed up. |
|
| They were patient and polite, but they obviously wondered why I was asking such a daft question. |
|
| We celebrated Easter, and I was in charge of distributing the gifts Mama had made. |
|
| I was always the type of kid who never believed in Santa or the Easter bunny and even took joy in catching my parents laying out gifts. |
|
| When I was a lad, the Easter bunny would bring a solitary, basic chocolate egg. |
|
| And I was embarrassed by him, too young for his shy approaches, too unused to such respectful gallantry. |
|
| Many people assumed that I was masterminding a great shift at the top echelons of government. |
|
| My mum used to tuck my jumpers in when I was little, I realised how daggy that was at age four when my kinder friends laughed at me. |
|
|
|
| I knew I was called to ministry, not as a power trip, but as an agent of God's transforming love for this world. |
|
| The last time I had been in Red Lake I was with my mother, sister, nieces, nephews and in-laws for a powwow. |
|
| I'm still not that tolerant or easy-going, but I'm far better than I was when I went in. |
|
| There is no grit, dirt, grime or funk worth mentioning, and the rawness I was expecting has been replaced with easy-listening soul ballads. |
|
| I rang up Luke to ask if I was being too dainty in thinking it ghoulish to market a film of somebody contracting a deadly disease. |
|
| I don't think I've done anything wrong this year, but last year when I was in easy street my mind was clear. |
|
| Soon I was on easy street and raking in enough to build four houses on each property. |
|
| But when I was invited to go for a gallop in the forest my nerves gave out again. |
|
| I heard that Bob used to play a lot of practical jokes while on the movie set, and I was wondering if she had any fond memories. |
|
| I was so close to my dorm I could practically taste it when someone stepped out in front of me. |
|
| Only when I was standing on the dais did I feel that I had the title wrapped up. |
|
| Having little practice in the gymnastic skills, which I was forced to learn during my training, I fell flat on my back. |
|
| Invariably I was offered the solution of buying enough different daisy wheels so that I would have the desired symbols at my disposal. |
|
| At school I was quite the womaniser, sending and receiving Valentine's cards with the practised air of a seasoned gigolo. |
|
| Then as I got older I was soon hiding behind the sofa every time the daleks came on in Doctor Who. |
|
| When I was 12, I dallied before basketball practice until it was late enough that I needed to ask my mother for a ride. |
|
| I was eavesdropping on his conversation with another dad and didn't quite catch it. |
|
| Trying to look like I was having fun jumping up and down, I secretly eavesdrop on their conversation. |
|
| I wanted to listen to you live, as though I was eavesdropping on your conversation. |
|
| Yes, call me a Stingy Scrooge because in that situation, I was being a Miser to the extreme. |
|
|
|
| I believe it is a profession in which people can do a lot of good and I was prepared to take a gamble with the job. |
|
| While monster-hunting on this far-flung island's shores in 1998, I was enthralled to see otters gambolling playfully in the sand dunes. |
|
| I was taught that semantics is about meaning as something that sentences have, whereas pragmatics is about meaning as something that people do. |
|
| I was expecting a trite plot and dialogue that would mimic Ebonics, not Southern dialect. |
|
| I was so enthusiastic, in fact, that upon leaving I decided to buy my own jars of praline spread and raspberry preserves. |
|
| I should have been out of the game, but I was forced into the fund-raising business. |
|
| The way I see it in the Jones fight, I was out of the game before the fight even started. |
|
| As I was walking down from the carpark, a little old lady pranged her silver Peugot into the wall at the exit. |
|
| By the time I had spotted this damnatory news item, it was mid morning here and I was at work. |
|
| The whole city was going crazy, and I was alone, helping myself to free prawn cocktails. |
|
| This morning I was wiping the table with a very slightly damp rag and noticed that the wax build-up was coming off. |
|
| Soon I was prowling the old family orchard while doing my best to keep the lock shielded from the damp. |
|
| Although I wasn't on duty for the fire, I was there in the evening damping it down. |
|
| I was somewhat gloomy and depressed those days, but I felt refreshed by the surrounding trees and prayerful atmosphere. |
|
| I was directing a game show on CBS and had health coverage but no life insurance. |
|
| Before I knew what was happening, I was experiencing joy with a group of fellow human beings for the first time since pre-adolescence. |
|
| I knew I stood out in a crowd because I was immediately surrounded by young men who wanted to fill my dance card. |
|
| Again and again, he 'gammoned' me and nobody was then game to tell me that I was the unknowing victim of deceptions. |
|
| I sought express instructions that I was to make this argument and the Commissioner recognises that sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. |
|
| On another occasion, I was much more inclined to resist a precautionary procedure. |
|
|
|
| The connecting bus took us up into Terminal One and within 10 minutes I was on the gangway of the Heathrow Express. |
|
| None of which saved me from a hand down my trousers after I was hauled aside for a random check on the gangway leading to the aircraft. |
|
| He owned a sporting agency and I was trained to sell fishing and hunting to the Italians, Danish and Germans. |
|
| I was tempted towards the Danishes this morning, then had cake mid-afternoon. |
|
| Ann's Danish pastry disappeared quickly and I was equally satisfied with a slice of fruit cake and Wensleydale cheese. |
|
| After a period of calm, I was allowed to speak again, to apologise for behaving precipitously, and to explain where the money had gone. |
|
| I was 20, a first year preclinical student, awaiting surgery for a large hiatus hernia. |
|
| When I was in high school a friend drove a 1970 Impala that his gearhead dad had kept garaged for years. |
|
| As a casual garbage truck driver, I was informed I would be permanent in 3 months. |
|
| I was the only dark kid in the class and I couldn't play the same Anglo characters as everybody else could. |
|
| I was a bit lost in my identity because Mum's got red hair and Dad's quite dark. |
|
| When I wrote it I was going through a very dark period of my life, a kind of hiatus if you like. |
|
| In college I went through a dark period, a time when I felt so alone I was sure I would break. |
|
| I sat, in the dark, for all I knew I was in a very lit room but all I could see was darkness. |
|
| I was enjoying the quiet of which I got so little, and being bothered by my mentor would only darken my mood. |
|
| When I was in Kerala I photographed a scene of dark-skinned Indians in line in front of a movie billboard depicting all light-skinned actors. |
|
| I was fourteen or fifteen, already into my diet and exercise phase, tall, muscular, and dark-skinned. |
|
| I had all my costumes slung over my shoulder in a garment bag and I was carrying my huge make-up case with me. |
|
| Then I was looping my arms around his neck, trying to use the bar between the manacles as a garrotte. |
|
| I was interested and not a little amused to note a panel on the dashboard with three small indicator lights. |
|
|
|
| I dreamed I was in a flowing gown, whisked away on a beautiful black steed, safely encompassed in the arms of a dashing stranger. |
|
| Using predominantly CPS files, I was able to collect statistical data on a number of variables. |
|
| Since then, it's been a rather gentle decline, although many in the UK during the 80s and 90s still thought I was a gas. |
|
| Their Excellencies would never allow me to return to the prison if I was found to be unable to contain the criminals sent there. |
|
| He finished gassing up, hung up the hose, then came over to where I was standing and got right in my face. |
|
| After gassing up the car, I thought to myself how fortunate I was to have bought a Super Soaker. |
|
| They told me it was just routine, but wanted to look at my passport, ask me where I worked, my date of birth and where I was going and why. |
|
| After a few stiff drinks I was beyond caring, I had already written the date off and she knew that I had, there was no sense in hiding it. |
|
| Tonight, I was watching part of a show where this couple were out on a date. |
|
| As a long-time admirer of Shed Seven's music, I was invited to spend the day with the York band on the final date of their sell-out tour. |
|
| When I was taking a typing class in high school I always made more mistakes when the teacher was over my shoulder, waiting for me to mess up. |
|
| I was sitting on the sofa with a man I was dating whom my daughter was quite fond of. |
|
| By the time we got onto the motorway and had found ourselves on familiar ground, I was gasping for coffee and something to eat. |
|
| Anyway, while I was preflighting the airplane, my student was waxing eloquent about the benefits, physical and emotional, of golf. |
|
| I was gassy when I got home, and actually woke up halfway through the night pretty sick. |
|
| I was doing new things and experimenting and trying to erase genre constraints and traditions. |
|
| I was suffering a heavy cold at the end of last week, which then developed into gastro-enteritis. |
|
| After three weeks, I was still unable to swallow, so a gastrostomy was placed. |
|
| I got the distinct impression that I was pretty much gatecrashing my own birthday party. |
|
| Once I was surrounded, the gators started to grin, and I mean grin, and showed me their razor-sharp teeth that were filed down to points. |
