Who was it that was talking about the PretentiousGlasses website for father's day?  I ordered the black and tan glass for DH and want to buy him some beer combos to go in there.  Ideas on what might taste delicious together? 

black and blue - Guinness and Blue Moon
snakebite - Guinness and cider
half and half - Guinness and Harp

OMG, a half and half sounds heavenly right about now.

Thanks @bunkinmama, @peanutbutterfox, and @kapaajoy

ready-or-not I was there all of last week and am back to having those kind of thoughts today. I have no words of wisdom but lots of hugs and wine!

E tried to jump in the pool and landed on her hooha on the side of the pool.

Her hooha is scraped up and red .

Fever is down and he's in a better mood, thanks y'all! Hopefully it stays this way. They said to bring back if he gets worse and call the pedi tomorrow if he's the same.

When I was almost nine I hopped off the counter and straddled an open cabinet door. Serious scrapping/bruising/blood ensued, to the point where my parents ended up taking me to the ER.

The hardest part for me was leaving it alone while healing, and at 9 I had more self control than your DD will. Try to make sure she doesn't scratch at it while it heals. According to my doctor it's easy to get an abscess down there since it's a dirtier area anyway. I put a lot of ice packs to my crotch for a week.

@sundae13 Go sit in the corner and think about what you've done, young lady!

I am upstairs at DD's preschool. She is doing great without me down there but I miss her and just want to go play with her! I will distract myself with Parenting!

my friend and my sister have bonded and it's like they want to have this weird friend circle.  i don't want to have a weird friend circle.  I don't want my friend to be friends with my sister. Friendly with my sister is ok.  Besties is not.  I don't care if that is selfish or immature.  Shit is too complicated right now and this plot twist means that I don't feel comfortable being honest/open with my friend anymore.

I start working this week. I really don't want to leave LO anymore. I am thinking about working over the summer and getting caught up on debt and a hefty savings account. DH has two awesome job opportunities at the end of the summer so if he gets one of them which comes with a raise and we have a full savings account I will quit and stay home with LO. I think that is a good goal and if it doesn't work out then I will continue working as long as I need to.

My SIL came through and took Sammie to the park. What I have I accomplished? Entered4 checks into quicken made bank deposit for FIL and am at Costco for the2 nd time trying to get my ink cartridge filled so I can print checks.

Guys I hope this works and I still have time to get at least a few other things done before they come home

ETA she took her to the zoo not the park

@LauraT25 I have a shirt with a camel on it that says "Wanna hump?" 

It is the same brown color.

thebanich

I bought it in college because our mascot was a camel and thought it was hilarious. I'm sure a lot of people at the conservative Baptist college I went to felt differently.

MrsLaLaBug

I'm trying to figure out how to juggle how/when I should start potty training DD(18m) and also when to transition her to a 'big girl' bed. All this without causing her to freak or regress as I'm 6m pg and due in September, which will be enough of a change for her as it is. Hold meh.

A camel is a weird mascot. Edit: definitely not the weirdest, though

We were the Fighting Camels (which probably makes it worse).

Waiting on the Wednesday workout thread... just finished a 5K walk on the treadmill. Its cool and rainy here so inside workout it is! Off to get a birthday gift for a friend's party on Sunday

thebanich

And from searching that image I have discovered that camel fighting is actually a thing.

MrsLaLaBug

@LauraT25 & @SweetTurnip thank you for making me feel more normal!

I haven't read the thread (what? Camel fighting?) but I wanted to make a FFWC: I found a cookie crumb in my bra when I went to pump. It was delicious.

Some asshole set out Thin Mints on the water cooler.

A Campbell University girl. Still can't believe you all added football.

LOL. We should have stuck with the "Undefeated since 1887"

Anyone remember that car that died in my back yard? It had scratched me and LO so the health department had it tested and she didn't have any diseases.

But today I saw a missing cat sign for it. Should I call them and tell them their cat died? I really don't want to bear that news but I think id want to know.

studyinpink

I would want to know. One of my mom's dogs got out and was never recovered.

She spent hundreds of dollars on the lost signs and so much time looking for him.

She was heartbroken and would have wanted to know. @ShakeyJakey‌

Um, yes. How is this even a question?

------
Some people might want to imagine the cat just found a new home? I'm just dreading having to tell them.

studyinpink

I'm sorry. @Brewcitygal‌

ShakeyJakey

I just feel so bad because the cat just keeled over. I can't explain to them what happened because I don't know.

Tell them exactly that.

ShakeyJakey

I called, the guy was nice about it but I feel so bad still. I can't wait to drink tonight.

wiggyslilsis

I'm sorry you had to be the one to tell them the bad news but I am glad you called.

I've been the Wildcats, the Cougars, and next I'll be a Golden Eagle. I think it's getting worse...
