The other day I was walking through Target and some guy said, "Damn!" Five years ago, I would have immediately assumed he was catcalling. This time, I was worried that I was doing something repulsive without even knowing it. This made me question my self-esteem and also a little disappointed in myself.
FTR it was neither and he had no clue I even heard him.
FFFC: I love watching my "love it" count go up. More than I should admit. It feels like the old post count, haha.
I am still mad there is no post count. I'd be at silver. Darn you the Bump! I worked hard for that level and credibility!
There is a post count if you go to your profile, but it is split out by the number of discussions you have started and the number of replies you have made.
DH is out of town this week. I get scared being in the house alone overnight. Last night, I heard a weird noise in the hallway and decided to go investigate. I didn't have any sort of weapon in my room, so I brought the metal part of my vacuum hose with me.
I was wandering around my house, peeking in doors, brandishing the always intimidating vacuum hose.
And then I slept on the couch.
My husband works late - 2AM is the earliest he gets home usually. The other night, I had just put C to bed, and I was tidying up the kitchen before cleaning the bathroom, washing diapers, etc. I started to hear freaky music playing and a voice saying, "YAY!" I almost shit myself, and jumped 10 feet in the air.
... Turns out, since I hadn't emptied the "pot" on C's potty yet, it was giving me a friendly reminder.
I just returned a bunch of stuff at Gap and was proud that I left without buying anything. Now here I am on gap.com debating if I should buy 5 more pairs of pjs for my LO. I have a pj obsession.
Nola got a dirty diaper out of her pail and brought it into the loving room this morning. She started waving it around and a little bit of poop fell out.
I closed her door after that, but the pail still needs to be emptied.
My kid hurts herself 1-2x a day. She has no fear and it makes me feel like I'm doing something wrong. She has bruises all over her legs and gets a knot on her head once a week. I hurdled the couch yesterday to prevent her from falling while getting her lunch ready. I am thinking I might need to use the play yard around the couch.
She was spinning in circles this morning, tumbled over and smack her head on the door trim.
Or just buy a lot of bubble wrap.
My kid is like this too. He runs while looking behind him all the time and smacks into the wall, couch or dog. Does it stop him? No, he'll just get back up and keep running. I think it's just in some kids' personalities to be so fearless.
I'm too sick @cheeseandrice!!!
I've got nothing. Except I've been puked on more times than I can count in 24hrs. And the last time instead of feeling bad for LO I felt bad for me and cried. MOTY.
My fffc that I have shared before: I like pictures without studying them and videos without watching them sometimes
I do this sometimes too. Especially with videos of friends' kids. A lot of the time the video won't come up on my iPad or something but I know the video would be cute/funny
Ok I know we are done talking about this, but I'm just getting back from running errands.
Ouch @tinyhumantoe Calling me a snake twice?! I don't think what I did was snakey. It made me very uncomfortable and was not appropriate. When you report something, it gives you certain options as to why and child pornography fit the best. It was the hashtag that bothered me most. Maybe she doesn't know the real purpose of them. But what mother thinks "hey let me hashtag this babypenis so when perfect strangers are searching for babypenis, they can look at my sons"? It needed to go. PMing her to ask her to take down a picture of her own son that she consciously posted saying she wasn't sorry didn't cross my mind.
I'm not a snake. I just have a low tolerance for bullshit and handle things the quick and easy way.
I didn't call you a snake, I said IMO it was snakey. It surprised me because while you are always direct, you are one of the most fair/nice people on here. I don't think it would have surprised me coming from a handful of other people.
It's just my sensitive sally opinion - no I don't think you are a snake.
@mnkate my husband keeps a baseball bat in the closet by the backdoor. He says it's for protection. Except he has to walk PAST the back door to get to the bat, so really, it doesn't do any good. Which is just as well, because I'd hate to be mistaken for an intruder and clubbed in the noggin. On the bright side...
being clubbed > being shot.
J keeps a cane under the bed (it's black with a gold cobra on top) that, if you twist the top off, is really a sword.
Omg my brother bought one in middle school from a ninja wannabe catalog. He got suspended. Hahaha

That is some serious, straight out of the movies shit. It sounds like what you would need if a pirate or a ninja broke into your house.
You guys know the entire board is now on some NSA/FBI watch list right?
Due to some of my DH's associates and places I went along to, I have been informed that my license plate has been flagged and I have been put on a "watch list." IDK that I actually believe it, but I don't like it either way.

WHY of all days, did I have to work TODAY (I'm usually off Fridays)?!?!
So, I'm going to say this and hopefully come back to finish reading tonight:
I've been waiting so long for the kid leash debate. I thought it was going to get started and it didn't. Damn!
I'm in agreement with@cheeseandrice on something! It made my day.
@indigovader I pretty much want to love tit everything you type.
@whoever was not as excited about subsequent babies: THANK YOU for admitting it. I was not jumping on couches excited when Pregnant with #2. I felt like I was the only one. Now, I love him to bits and wouldn't trade him for the world, but I did NOT feel immediate love/happiness when I found out I was pregnant. Big *hugs* to you!!!
I redact part of my original FFFC.... H just texted me. He inverted two numbers of his salary offer. Turns out he's actually making about 10% more. bahah
Is it a position in finance or accounting? Because, that would make this all the better.
I'm just wondering how many of us saw the picture, and how many have heard word of mouth- thus proving @cheeseandrice's and @cherrycrepes points. Let's just all agree it was fawking stupid, and remember to cover out kids up.
I know several S12ers liked the picture, but the only name I remember from it is holly.
I didn't see the picture, I don't care to debate it, I am sad Mirask isn't my IG friends anymore but I have to say - Ha, of course Holly had something to do with this. Of course. #eloheffingel
Also, I am 112 pages back so this has likely been covered.
Yeah, I am pretty sure she unfollowed/ blocked me too....
(
Don't know if this was addressed, but I guess I find this to be awkward.
That is what I was thinking too haha what if she totally meant to block or unfollow you? Awkward.
I've totally named names of people that have blocked me. Awkward? Yeah for them I guess, but oh well. Don't block me then
You had me blocked back in the day. I was all nervous about saying something and then I had a second glass of wine and gathered up the guts. I think it worked out well for us. :P

I guess I'm confused by this comment? I actually had nothing to do with anything, but felt the need to defend myself when coincidently the only name that cherrywhatever could remember was mine. I said my piece and then left the conversation as I had nothing further to add.

My point was only that somehow your name always comes up in the drama. Even if you had nothing to do with it.
I actually snickered because you were singled out as part of this.
Also? I think it's super fucking lame that you were CLEARLY stalking this thread to pick out who you wanted to block but couldn't bother to speak up and try to explain yourself.
@mirasktastic
I hadn't said anything about it and I got unfreinded. It happens. Her loss, my pictures rule. So there. >:P

My fault, I don't always articulate well. Just ask my husband. According to him "thingy" cannot be used to describe everything. I, however, disagree.
Also? I think it's super fucking lame that you were CLEARLY stalking this thread to pick out who you wanted to block but couldn't bother to speak up and try to explain yourself.
Guys. She blocked pretty much everyone. We don't need to all post weather we were blocked or not. ( grammar police, idk if that is the right 'weather' or not feel free to correct)
Also? I think it's super fucking lame that you were CLEARLY stalking this thread to pick out who you wanted to block but couldn't bother to speak up and try to explain yourself.
Really glad I was there for you when you needed a friend @mirasktastic. Really mature of you to block me from IG. Oh well, at least you've always got Alliepony.
This is the weird one. Well, they both are. It's like you were offended and/or sad, yet you berated her with insults.
You think she's immature for deleting, but responded to her by calling her really mature and delivering a lower blow...
It's weird.
Eta: for clarity, the delete was a dig, you made a bigger dig. You called her immature, but your response was way less mature than her deleting someone on IG. It's all hypocritical. It was like eye for an eye, her eye was a mouse eye and yours belonged to a grizzly bear.
Re: FFFC
Lois, WTG on the Doritos. No judgement here. Sounds delicious.
