We had donuts at work but now I want the ones @leloyd‌ has. Why is my life devoid of meaning?

I'm legit pissed at that plan b destroys your reproductive system post. FFS.

Is there a rubber band type trick for slacks?

What do you all think about having a new random thread every day or every few days? This way newbies aren't intimidated and if you missed a day out so it's easier to jump back in?

My old BMB does one every couple weeks I think.  But I also think they're still posting on their 6/27 random thread and haven't made a new one lol.

I successfully ate breakfast today without getting sick!

Good luck @chrain !!

Successful meal eating makes me happy too @mweber13. Some days, it's totally the little things lol.

My husband has that bad habit too @chunkymonkeylvr ... Except he throws away perfectly good leftovers. Nothing worse then getting your mind excited for food that's been eaten or tossed already.

@wendyld I am seriously considering going back for seconds at this point. 

As for a rubber band trick you can loop the rubber band around the button weave it through the whole and then back over the button.  It definitely allows for a little give.

I mean for slacks, hook and eyelet, not big buttons and button holes.

Ugh, just took a sip of a brand new glass of ice water (from the same ice machine and fountain I use everyday and in a clean cup) and the water tasted terrible! Thank god for those flavoring packets....

Oh. Is it bad that at this point I am leaving those unhooked and just wearing a long shirt to cover it with?

I am too, but the zipper won't stay up today either, so I'd like to avoid sharing my fupa with the world

I am deciding between 2 jobs and I can't make up my mind. Please give me your input!
1. 35 minute drive each way, I know the other teacher that would be on my team and the principal, it's a school district so it has great benefits, tons of resources: smart board, ipads, etc.
2. Only 10 minutes from my house, $3,000 more a year, charter school, larger class size, no technology in the classroom, it's a new school so I really don't know what it is like.

Do I go for more money at a school I'm not sure about or more resources and a longer drive at a place I know I would be happy?

Happy... Go for happy, always... 35 minutes isn't that crazy of a commute.

My old bmb use to to a "spam thread" every week. Every Monday they would start fresh. Maybe you could do that? I'm just reading all of these, and you girls crack me up. lol

I had forgotten how emotional and hormonal I am while pregnant. I started crying because DD will no longer be the only child who gets all of my attention and how having a sibling will impact her. DH managed to talk me down and reminded me how much we want this but holy hormones I was a crying mess for a while there.

I was having dinner at my sister and BIL's house the other night and my 4yo niece ran into the kitchen yelling that the puppy had pooped all over the floor in the living room. I felt a cold chill go down my spine when I realized their puppy was in the back yard and my 17 mo was being suspiciously quiet. It's bad enough when your kid craps all over your own floor but I'm here to tell you that it's much worse when it's someone else's floor that's getting crapped on. Luckily they don't own a Roomba.

@chrain‌ did we get an appt update somewhere?

chaysefaith

My SO's bff just announced on FB that they are expecting a baby in January. He texted the guy about it and he called the baby a mistake. Are you FUCKING kidding me? Go fuck yourself. Our baby died halfway through our pregnancy and you have the balls to tell my SO that your baby is a mistake? I'm fucking done with you, dude. Fuck off.

@SNLT1012‌ oh how awful. Knowing what you and your dh have been through and then to say that about his own kid? It's one thing to say it was an accident but completely another to say "mistake".

Idk why this has me so upset. If he wants to call his baby a mistake that's not my problem. Ugh.

Listen guys Imma be completely honest.

I don't know what the fuck is going on 84% of the time on here....

SO: shout out (I now know it's significant other)
DH: designated husband (wtf?)
DD: drunk driver (I know this is a child so it makes me giggle)
GFKY(?): GO to FUCKING KRISPYCREAM (I don't know what the y means)
There are a few more that I dont remember... I'm like 3 days in so I know I'll eventually get it.

And this damn search bar... I don't fucking know. Why can't this shit ding at me when drama starts or someone @ me.

I'm pissed the F off because I can't make darth vader out of fucking fondant.

@estamos_tomamos‌ it looks like a fucking squirrel. I am trying to make a topper for a birthday cake.... It's going to be super girly and then BAM Darth Vader holding 23. I am a fan of making non grown up things for grown ups.

I know this won't make me any friends, but I am so thankful to not be working and have my mom as my neighbor. I know I'm spoiled, my other two were not like this, but I'm about to take a nap and I'm thrilled that my mom will be cleaning my house.

Jealous! I love where we live, our house, my friends, etc. But sometimes I really wish I didn't live 800+ miles from the rest of my family. Especially with a baby on the way, it would be so nice to have my mom here to help or a built in babysitter. Now I'm getting sad and hormonal thinking about it.

motherofdogs

Both sets of our parents are BSC if we didn't just build our dream home we would pack up and move away. His grandmother is sane and I'm hoping for her help when the time comes.... She also doesn't speak English so this helps us love each other more!

I love that gif! If I didn't have dinner plans, I'd binge watch Psych all night now...

Oh no, I'm so sorry, @chrain ! Hopefully it will all be worth the wait and tomorrow will be great, reassuring news!

I feel like I'm going to hyperventilate!

ETA: I think I am going to the grocery store now to buy all the carbs.
P.S. if you are on the desktop site and can't get line breaks in do < br > (but take the spaces out) for one break and two for a full break.

Ugh I'm sorry. I'm so frustrated for you. I'll be looking for an update from you on Friday.

PuppyLove84

@chrain Oh COME ON that is not cool! I would be super pissed! You deserve all the carbs since you have to freak out for 2 more days!
