Do you do randoms around here?

Because I feel like sharing.
There are few things better than putting on a well fitting bra and a freshly washed tank top. I feel like Super Boobs, able to defy gravity in a single bound.
That is all.

Re: Do you do randoms around here?
I missed you Hind!
As for randoms.....
I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE eating the spiciest chips (oh Fiery Habenaro Doritos come back) then downing chocolate milk to sooth the heat.
I am an old drop iner.
For reference, I was here when Illumine had her baby.

You're on my list, woman.

She is a oldie but goodie. Very likable but seems very mellow since returning. Hind likes to tell it like it is so some think she is snarky but she is insightful.
Are you calling me mellow??? I might be offended, yo!
Click me, click me!
I have not figured out I it was meant to insult, lol.
I wish I could go braless, I have gained 15lbs and I am not kidding when I say half of it went to my boobs.
I have nothing random because my brain is shot. Well for random and for Hind I bought and ate mini macarons from Trader Joes yesterday and they were delish.
My friend is making them for pinky's party. I'm so excited because I'm so lazy lol. One less thing for me to do.
I've gained about ten recently and I can't fit my engagement ring. So instead of idk, eating healthier and exercising, I'll just be over here eating special K or something.

We are going to Disney and when I get back I will have to do something because my eating I out of control. That's cool your friend is making them for you, I might have to try to make them. The weird thing is I hate nuts and loves te pistachio ones the best.
Please come back to ML. I miss you and your special mix of wisdom and snark.
I always wanted to be the girl that didn't have to wear a bra. Instead I have been wearing once since I was 11. They got so big when I was nursing DS that I couldve been a sideshow in the circus. Still waiting for them to go back down....
My random, I ordered one of those diamond candles on the Internet and am dying to see what type of ring I got.
My randoms:
I am on a mission to get these shorts that are apparently underwear to wear under dresses so your thighs don't rub together. Nothing worse than chub rub in the summer. I have gained soooooo much weight since I met my H 9 years ago. It's gross. Yet I do nothing about it though my thighs have always rubbed together.
I hate that punctuation other than periods and commas don't work on the mobile version of this stupid site.
BF related. I am mildly annoyed that in my state CS goes until 19 or graduates. I kept telling my H this and he did not believe me. But I let him convince me otherwise so I got all excited that we would finally be able to hire a cleaning person and get someone out here to fix our mess of a yard. Nope. 10 more months. It's the law, and really I am ok with having to follow that, but I am bummed I have to wait for my cleaning help. I hate cleaning. And gardening. Basically I probably shouldn't be a homeowner. Being a responsible grown up is no fun sometimes. 10 more months.
My random, I'm exhausted from moving. I got home from getting LO at daycare and fell asleep on the couch for an hour. I woke up and FREAKED OUT, I thought I left the baby in the car. Nope, he's asleep in his car seat right next to the couch like he was when we got home. He never sleeps this long when we get home so I forgot he was right here by me.
BF related: BM went on vacation without the kids. She went with her boyfriend and 2 friends. Her status on FB is about getting her drink on. I'm not sure why she drove all day when that's what she does on weekends anyway. Kids are with their grandmother. Ughhhh I wish the move up there had worked out. DH is going to get more certifications and try again but I feel bad for them.
Lastly, yay HAB! Do you plan to stick around for a while? Glad to see you!
I'm in a reading slump. Seems like the last two dozen or so books I've read have sucked. I don't like the characters, the writing is not great, etc. It's annoying me to the point where I'm knitting again. Except I have NO CLUE what I'm knitting.
Semi-related: I am kind of in a weird place in which I feel not awesome enough at SAHMing but I'm also not really ready to go back to working full time. Blah.
Try target near the sports bras.
You and like three others.
lol

What do you like to read?
I'm reading some better written than 50 shades but equally insipid book I found on pinterest.
Click me, click me!
I'll try just about anything. I just finished this heinous self-pub'd YA book. Before that was a Nora Roberts book that was meh. Before that was a Jodi Picoult book that I would have thrown across the room if it hadn't been on my Kindle. The last thing I read I liked was a Elizabeth II biography.
I am also glad you are posting here again!
If you read romance and have an e reader of some sort, I have a stack of Julie Garwood books I can email you. I can also email you the first Game of Thrones. If you like historical novels, Game of Thrones reads just like one.
The pile of crap I'm currently reading is called Knight and Play. It's terrible lol.

To you ladies bragging about how awesome it is to not wear a bra, I loathe you right now. Not only are my girls too big to go braless, this whole breastfeeding thing sucks.

That would be great. I've never read anything by her. I did just reread an old Jude Deveraux book though.
I do love historical stuff. I've read the first couple Game of Thrones books. Have you read Pat Rothfuss? His two books kind of remind me of Game of Thrones but his style works a bit better for me.
It seems like I heard something recently about a couple pretty smutty series that weren't horrible. I'll see what I can find.
Currently I am reading a biography of the Duchess of Windsor. I find her absolutely fascinating. We share a birthday and she too had pugs!
A diamond candle is a soy candle that comes in tons of different smells, but each candle has a ring in it. They are worth either $10, $100, $1,000 or $5,000. You have to burn the candle for a while and then you get to the ring. It is $24 but even the $10 rings are nice looking. The fun part is waiting for it to burn to see the ring. My DH can't wait and tries to dig through it. It is silly but fun.
I will second this. I am seriously jealous of all you braless women. I went up 4 effing cups from my already too big breasts when my milk came in.
Lots of us miss you. You have to know that! It was just a low day on ML and a post that went awry in so many ways.
Yes, I love that series! But your post made me think about trying her Lord John series, which I've not read at all.
BTW in the E II biography I just read, I was surprised at how little there was about her (and her husband). It sounds like after the abdication Elizabeth had almost nothing to do with them.
Love Preston/ Child books. I also love the Jack Reacher series by Lee Child and the Mitch Rapp books by Vince Flynn. They are like the book version of 24. Mitch Rapp=Jack Bauer.
They didn't. Those two were odd ducks. In addition to being supporters of Hitler and such, they were incredibly self involved, petulant, and pissy at the people, the royal family for not supporting their marriage. They became hermits pretty much.
felles, pm me your email address and I'll send you the Julie Garwood. If you like Jude Devareux, you should like JG.

HS: sent!
The Elizabeth II biography--and it should be mentioned that the author is clearly a fan of hers--contends that they were exiled because they could not risk a former monarch having a following of either government officials or in the general population.
Apparently it's the same reason things could go very awry if Charles tries to abdicate to William. And barring mental incapacitation, Elizabeth will never abdicate to either of them.
Yeah, I don't see Elizabeth abdicating. The abdication of Edward was pretty traumatic to the royal family. But part of the lingering irritation with Edward by the royal family is the fact that in general, he was a shiit king. He'd made some overtures about helping the common people but when it came to his duties and such, he had better things to do and not all of them involved Wallis Simpson. I have to wonder if Wallis had been a more positive influence in his life, if he could have eventually won some measure of support for her, even as a consort in a morganatic marriage. Instead, I think Wallis was just the icing on top of the omg, this man is a terrible king sandwich. That irritation was compounded by the fact that his younger brother, next in line to the throne wasn't exactly the stuff of kings either.
So yeah, I'd agree that pro Hitler or even meh Hitler sentiments were common place (see Neville Chamberlain), I think Edward's leadership or lack thereof is what really worried people about his feelings in particular on the matter. A weak, distracted king in the face of Hitler's aggression was a scary prospect.
