You Remind Me of the Babe

FX for @LaurenAndDan and @estamos_tomamos today!

@mangomimosa  Sending positive thoughts for your SIL and her LO.

Some good friends of D's are in town and we are all going out to dinner tonight.  I normally love this particular restaurant, but looking over the menu this morning made me want to vom.

Also, I had two Egg McMuffins this morning and gave zero fucks.

I'll post it when I get home, with a picture. Then you'll drool and want to make it right away. SO GOOD. And I'll try to find the alternative for those of you who can't cheat with a bread machine!

There was this coffee shop in the library college that had awesome bagels that my roommate and I would pick up and eat in class. This post totally made me all nostalgic about that. I'm a weirdo.

This made me think of the amazing bagels I used to get in college..they would be all drenched in butter and cooked on the griddle that way, and then I'd put cream cheese on top of it and it would be warm, delicious goodness for class...mmmmmmmmm

@Layfi002 that song was my absolute favorite in 6th grade.

@adouces06 Try some OJ (bananas work too as @mandjs and @frecklesinside mentioned), the potassium is usually good for lactic acid build-up. So is massaging toward your heart, so rub it along your thigh moving upwards. Hope it goes away, I hate them and they always hit me in the middle of the night when I'd feel bad screaming about how painful they are.

@AlinnJo I went by Starbucks this morning and about cried when they told me they stopped making their cinnamon swirl bread ;-( They gave me a regular coffee cake which had cinnamon crumbles on top, but it just wasn't the same...

@CoozieInMyPurse YAY for a great appointment!! So happy for you!

@transplantedhawkeye I hope your ortho appt. goes well and you can return to work! (I haven't made it through all the pages so if you have given an update..whoops ;-) )

I know! My Starbucks stopped selling their cranberry orange scones and crushed my dreams

Hooray on all the good appts!

@estamos_tomamos‌ hopefully they hurry up! The suspense! Fingers crossed

I was mad the Starbucks near me (I'm BN) stopped selling the cool lime refreshers! I found them at another one, but then also learned they have more caffeine than coffee. I'm trying to limit my caffeine intake because I'm already on stimulants (Concerta and Ritalin) for my ADHD. Boooo

Oops channeled a little bit of @FrecklesInside‌ 's rage at the chick in the secondary dismenorreah post. She deserved it though. >:(

She is beyond rude.

FrecklesInside

Ooops, I skipped over that one - better go check it out!

LtColumbo

I need to recognize @ToasterCat‌ for telling her to "just downward facing dog off into the sunset." Amazing

AlinnJo

I'm kinda laughing at the appointment thread. My H does not need to come with me to every appointment. Nor can he take all of the time off of work to go. Plus, a half hour in the car each way by myself sounds like heaven. I guess that should go in FFFC!

OMG I shouldn't have read that thread. That chick REALLY pissed me off. I mean, where the fuck did that come from?!

This. What the fuck is her problem???

I'm so fucking sick of these people asking innocent questions and then revealing their hatred for all of us. THEY ARE THE ONES looking for drama, not us. Fuck right offfffff

@BostonAlison‌ that looks fun, I didn't know they did that. We went to water fire a few years back, it's a great time.

@LtColumbo  I'm trying to convince hubby that $100 isn't too high of a price for kayaks.... and GLOWY FISH.

I might have just gone overboard. @SNLT1012 - if/when there is reporting, you'll have to handle and I'll accept my lashings quietly. :P

I didn't see anything bad...

Well. I think I'm all caught up with this thread (although I'm sure there are tons of comments I haven't read by the time I post this) and am off to catch up on the amenorrhea thread.

herbavein

we are having what's supposed to be an outside party tomorrow. except, rain. which means I need to clean my whole house. eff. (yes, obviously I knew there was a chance of bad weather when we planned it, but I was hopeful). 30 grownups and 20 kids in my house (over a six hour time span) won't be too terrible, right? lie to me?

@MrsLaurenandDan Good luck at your appointment.

I have had bagels with cream cheese for breakfast pretty much every day this week. I want all the carbs right now and it's one of the things I can keep down in the morning.

BostonAlison

Am I the only one that thought of diarrhea when reading the amenorrhea title?  Or maybe gonorrhea?

I am seriously disappointed in tomorrow's forecast. Go figure, right? You have a party, I'm supposed to leave for vacation on the boat...yup, so, rain.

We're now going to wait until Sunday to leave. Oy. 

Good luck with the party...sounds like...fun. I'll keep my FX that the rain holds off...

@snlt1012 How are you feeling? I feel like I haven't seen you much these past few days. Is everything OK? I know work has been sucking...but, thinking of you

You guise, my FIL is downstairs "watching" my son for me. I told him I wanted to come upstairs to take a nap (really just wanted to bump) and he said he would keep him quiet. OMFG it sounds like there are bulls running amok in my house. How the hell he thinks I could "nap" through this is beyond me.

I'm doing ok struggling to keep up with my horrible job getting in the way.

I applied for a new position today which would make my job situation better and since it's with the same company I would get to still have my maternity leave paid at 100%, so fingers crossed.

@SNLT, fingers crossed that everything works out!

My random: the past two mornings I have woken up with the most random song in my head. I haven't heard it in ages. 

Weak by SWV. Anyone remember that song? No idea where that came from!

Also, I had an iced coffee this morning and I am all over the place, talking 90 miles an hour and getting lots of work done! I haven't had caffeine in a few weeks.... 

I don't know what song that is but I had the flintstones theme song in my head this morning.

chaysefaith

Thanks guys!  I've pretty much made up my mind that I'm going to start applying for every single position they post that I qualify for and can still do from home.  There's gotta be something.

I hope you get something soon @SNLT1012  hugs and stuff!

So apparently no one wants an appointment with their family nurse practitioner on Friday afternoons in my office. So I get to sit around until 5 pm staring at my computer. I guess I could just keep trolling these boards, though. Lots of juicy drama!

FrecklesInside

estamos_tomamos said:

I just called and left a message for the nurse.  The office closes at 5 and I can't go all weekend like this.

Nope. Unacceptable. There is no reason they shouldn't get back to you today. Can you reach a person and kind of freak out about how concerned you are? 

ngolimento

There *dusts hands off* that should square away miss pissy amenorrhea pants.

What a twat.

FX you get something that makes you happier!

I have another interview today so I need good vibes that this is a good job because I have experience in it and that there's no catch like last time.. Really need a new job, like yesterday..

sjep922

@estamos_tomamos I hope you hear back soon! They shouldn't make you wait like that! I'd keep calling until someone answers! All weekend is too long to go without knowing!

@SNLT1012 FX that you are able to get something that makes you happy soon!

herbavein

@SNLT1012 and @Cinderella021714 sending good interview/new job vibes your way!
