RTT

sherks11

aka random thought thread. It's a thread for everyone to post any random thoughts (duh), daily happenings, have discussions, etc. You get the point.

On my last bump it got as long as a couple thousand pages! If people take to it, we can make it a sticky.

Ready? Go!

sherks11

I'll start... My belly is tired today. Not my body, just my belly. Totally makes sense why but it's still weird describing it to DH.

I haven't burped since I became pregnant!

Paige6410

I can't stop burping. It's really embarrassing waiting tables or being behind the bar having constant hiccup-burps.

nanamp

I now hiccup once during a first sip of anything bubbly. Never happened before pregnancy.

Yay this thread 8->

I'm glad things got snarky in a hurry over hurr.

steph_pegasus

I wish it were possible to sterilize some people so they couldn't reproduce - drunk pregnant lady in the wtf thread is making me entirely too angry.

Sovvy

I am going to ikea this week to buy a dresser to put all the junk I keep buying for this baby in.

I love ikea!!

Emott13

I flossed last night with actual floss instead of using my water pic and the amount of itching in my gums today is going to make me absolutely insane.

KaraEpp16

SO told me last night....wait for it.....

That he is HAPPY that I'm pregnant now because when the kid is 20 we will still be in our 40s. I had him repeat it. I was like wtf this is what I was saying!

Edit to add: I guess I could have put this in the WTF Wednesday thread.....lmao

mollyj931

#2 is still sleeping and I should actually take advantage of it and go shower and get ready but I just want to lay here and bump!

ChipMonster

We bought our kitchen from ikea and we are still waiting for 5 door fronts and it is JULY!!!! I'm annoyed!

hailees

@KaraEpp16 that's kinda adorable! Sometimes the processing of that stuff takes a little longer for our counterparts lol....

That's how I get my husband to go
We'll only go if we can be there when they open though. That place gets way too crazy for me.

hailees

Should I explain how to Internet or.... ?ugh.

I go during the week never on the weekend it's insane. My DH will never set foot in ikea again because I scarred him on our first trip. We went when I was in college with my roommate to buy some things for our new apartment and we were there for like 6 hours #-o oops

Sovvy

I'll go to ikea any day of the week, any time of the day. It's all gravy, baby.

Paige6410

I just got a second mother effing warning.... Over my summary of the Forever 21 post.

KaraEpp16

@hailees I thought it was adorable, too. My parents started having kids when they were 20/21 and stopped before 29/30 and they are two years away from my youngest sibling *hopefully* leaving the nest. Uh, Hello Golden Years?!

I told him I wanted to have my first by at least 28 and last by 30-32 because having adult kids in your 50s is stellar. I'm glad he finally caught on. I feel like I always have these ideas and then it takes months for him to be like "Oh yeah, you know what sounds like a good idea....-insert my idea from five months ago-" DUH!

steph_pegasus

I have 2 also @Paige6410
Smh.

steph_pegasus

And who is the person who posted "repeat post police" on the newest movement thread??

KaraEpp16

I've never been to ikea.....

hailees

@StephPegasus not sure so I didn't touch it..

fragglemom

@Snoopylovesbelle , we live in MA. The only other Ikea in New England is in CT. Ours is always mobbed...even on the weekdays. I actually hate weekdays more because of the traffic.
I have the place down now though. I make a list through their website before we go. It tells you where everything is so we can at least avoid the zombies wandering the showroom and go straight for the merchandise. It keeps me from spending way more than I want to as well ;;)

What!? You must go! Are you not close to one?

steph_pegasus

@hailees She's been posting regularly to our board so I guess she's been here a while. Probably trying out her own brand of snark.
Eta tag, and I saw her post something similar on another thread yesterday.

ChipMonster

@KaraEpp16 my mom had me at 23 and my bro at 29. I had always pictured myself having kids in my 20s and thought I'd want to be done by the time I was 30. Until I hit my 20s!

For a while I felt like my life wasn't on track because I wasn't anywhere near that life but I'm glad I wasn't because the guy I was with was no good for me and I got 3 degrees in my 20s. I didn't get married until I was 30 and had my first at 31. Now I'll have my 2nd at 32.

PS you are missing out on the ikea stuff. So fun!!

fragglemom

@KaraEpp16, it's probably not even worth it for you. Aside from the drive to get there, it's a pain in the ass to get to the register and remember you have to pay tax.

I burp like every 10 minutes... and loud! I feel like a man

I want to go to the march 16 thread and steal their "read this before you post" post, and have it posted as a sticky on our board. It has a great combo of snark and honesty and spells it our straight! 

Also instead of getting any of my AQ course done, Is spend all my time here.... I think DH is starting to wonder what I do all day. lol

KaraEpp16

@ChipMonster I'm so impressed that you busted out three degrees! I have no degrees - I am petrified of owing people thousands of dollars and high school was....rough. I knew when I met my SO that I wanted him to be the father of my children. I'm glad we found the right guys when we were supposed to!

@jessfragione I'm not sure if they have an Ikea in NH but we have no sales tax woot woot. I really have no interest in going... I like reading the reviews on amazon and researching furniture there. We got an AWESOME entertainment center. It's probably my favorite piece of furniture in my living room.

My husband makes the best pancakes in the world and I love pancakes! Problem is this baby doesn't. One bite and I'm throwing up. I just want my pancakes!!!!

vvitchhazel

I predict that I'm going to have a bad day so it's hot dogs and cookies for breakfast.

fragglemom

@KaraEpp16, I live in MA on the NH border. There are only 2 Ikea stores in New England. One in Stoughton, MA and one in New Haven, CT. I do most of my shopping in NH since it is only one town away from me, so it's a shock to pay tax when I actually do shop here in MA. I soooo wish they'd put an Ikea in NH. They could just take over the old Rockingham race track in Salem and make me a happy camper!

Paige6410

They are about to put in an ikea somewhat close to me, I'm excited! I've also never been to one.
