I had a friend once who often said, "So-and-so told me something and said not to tell anybody, but you're my best friend, so I'm gonna tell you anyways!!"

Then one day she told me something about a family member that was told to her in confidence and extremely private. I realized the whole thing about if she shares those secrets with me, she'll share my secrets with other, and so began the slow decline of out friendship.
...random story. But I can't understand why some people get high on gossip like that
.
That's the kind of person who'd go BSC on a forum.

I HAVE NO IDEA WHO ANYONE IS ANYMORE!!

Yes I'm yelling that.

CinemaGoddess · May 2014

You guys need to tell me which page the good confessions are on because I don't have time today to read this entire thing.

Also, the MJ/JT song is still the fucking tits @mackalien13 can confirm.

I'm babysitting my sister's kids overnight tomorrow night so that her & her husband can have a date night/night off. I am pretty much their only option for any kind of overnight care, & I usually don't mind, but she has 4 kids, I have 3 plus 30 weeks pregnant. I'm just not feeling it. Does it make me an absolutely horrible sister/aunt to sorta kinda wish that one of her kids will start random puking/fever so that their date night is canceled?

It does, doesn't it? Kinda feel bad even typing it.....

7 kids is a lot off fucking kids. I'd do it for my sister, but I'd probably have the same feels from time to time. It's nice of you though, and I'm sure she'd do (or does) the same for you from time to time. But ya, 7 kids, whew....I'd need a day to myself on Sunday.

only on page 6 here...but yeah, I wholeheartedly agree...7 is a lot of fucking kids.

just ask my uterus.

Lastly, the 90s arrived at my house last night in the form of the following CDs, which I purchased at the Goodwill:

Amy Grant - Heart in Motion

Wilson Phillips - Wilson Phillips

Sleepless in Seattle soundtrack

Mariah Carey - Mariah Carey

I have been rocking out to Hold On for, like, 2 hours now.

I missed so much because I went on vacation. I am sorry for people being hurt even if I don't know what happened

Two confessions before I go read everything...

1. I forgot my vibrator and lube in Vegas

I only have one so this is kind of a big deal.

2. We saw Zumanity and there was a portion where they were talking about bringing your toys to Vegas but don't worry if you forgot you can go natural and use a banana. I laughed out loud because of Parenting and the infamous banana!

Who are you?

I haven't posted in like, oh I don't know, probably a year and a half at the very least.

CinemaGoddess · May 2014

I'm sorry @pobrecita.

jesuisfatiguee · May 2014

@pobrecita, that post makes me want to hug you for an uncomfortable length of time.

Here is an actual confession.

My body issues are so bad and run so deep that I worry pretty much daily about my kid's weight and have to actively stop myself from restricting his food intake.

If I pass this on to him I will consider myself a total failure as a parent.

Shockingly, I thought about confessing something similar to this today. DD1 is a tad on the chubby side, and my mom was always drilling it in my head that being fat was a fate worse than death. I am constantly at war with myself over worrying about her being chubby as she gets older and not making her ashamed of whatever weight she is because it is so ingrained in me. She is really one of the two most beautiful creatures on earth to me (DD2 obviously being the other) and it would break my heart if she ever thought otherwise, especially because of some fucked up notions I passed onto her.

I'm totally there with you guys. My girls are so beautiful. I love everything about them and I don't want them to hate their bodies.

Saw this yesterday and cried. I know it's a video. I watched the video then read.

I need to get my weight loss mojo back.

I've gained back 10lbs of the weight I lost earlier this year. This year has been the absolute worst, stress wise, and my fallback is emotional eating.

It's hard to break a 30 year old habit. Forreal.

I really like doughnuts, though. I got two this morning, which I ate, but I'm eating salad for lunch and dinner.

That's a start, right?

Did you Boston Creme?

YES I DID.

It was delicious and NOT from KK. Hence the deliciousness.

I went to a Matilda Jane 'trunk show' party last night for the sole purpose of eating dessert.

That stuff is hideous.

Are you still smoke free?

What I like to do when I get off track is focus in on healthy habits and stop thinking about weight loss. I need to eat healthy to feel good, what are foods that will give me the most energy and make me feel great after eating them? I need to exercise so I can sleep better, feel more rested, get out anger/frustration/general shitty feelings. And I focus on that instead of the scale.

As a former smoker and someone who is on and off the healthy train, I am rooting for you.

Newp. I started back up in February. I need to get back on the exercise train, but I've been working extra hours and my only time to myself is when I'm grocery shopping, so I buy lots of food and smoke in my car.

It's a really bad habit and I need to break it.

I'm also very over weight and when people were telling me that DD was fat and a chubster before her first birthday I died on the inside thinking I'd already ruined her life. Someone PM'd me once telling me they were concerned about her weight because I too was overweight.

Once she really started walking all her baby blubber melted away and she's now in the 90th percentile for height and weight. I've accepted that I have a big kid (She was 9.5 pounds at birth) but sometimes I still panic that someone is going to call her a fatty and blame me for it.

OMG-- are you for serious? Someone on TB? That makes me ragey.

steponalego11 · May 2014

Negative body issues are definitely something I hope I don't pass to my DS or any future LOs. It is a horrible cycle I see in the woman in my family and something I have struggled with since elementary school. I, too, was relieved to find out we were having a boy while pregnant because of this issue but can tell you that watching my DH - it's very real for males as well. More so than cursing, removing the self deprecating language from my conversations in front of DS has been very hard for me.

Big creepy internet hugs from the newb to all the ladies in the same boat.

I am terrible at geography. Really, really bad. My boss just called and asked me to go on our company website and find out who is the rep for Colorado. You do this by clicking on a map of the US. Which is unlabeled. I had to Google a labeled map because I wasn't sure which was the right one between Colorado and Wyoming.

colorado is a perfect square. That's how I find it on a map. lolz.

hugs @pobricita . I am worried for all the little girls on my husband's side of the family. My MIL and SIL constantly talk about weight and criticize other women's bodies.

I know. I have a lot of problems with the Eastcoast states, particularly New England. It just blows my mind that you can drive through, like, 4 states in the same amount of time it takes to get from Seattle to Idaho.

Does anyone not from the NE know which is Vermont and which is New Hampshire?

I do.

@peanutbutterfox at least you knew they were in the same general area!
Now if you try to tell me Israel is in Africa, and Saudia Arabia is in South Africa. Well, then we're going to have issues

Well if I'm being honest, I was just pretty sure one of them was Colorado. I had no idea the other was Wyoming until I pulled up the labeled map.

ETA: I could not point out either of those countries on a map if my life depended on it. TERRIBLE AT GEOGRAPHY YO.

From where I sit I could drive for 9 hours and still be in the same state. Getting from the middle of one to another in less than an hour is mind bottling.

Exactly.

I feel you. In Oct I weighed 238 from 278. I've slowly been letting myself go blaming the shitty winter and was hovering around 245. Well now I'm creeping up to 256 and feel awful. I decided today I need to cut out the diet soda because I've been drinking way too much and I was doing so well when I had cut it out completely. If only we lived near each other, we could do this together.

I need to cut out the diet soda, too. That triggers my sugar cravings and sugar is my downfall. I will just come and move into your house with you. I can sleep on the porch in summer. Cool?

I took a geography course in college and I literally had to draw or label countries, rivers, cities, etc from memory. Sometimes with no borders on the maps. It was so hard.

WHAT IS THE FUNCTIONAL LIFE APPLICATION OF THIS SKILL?!?!?!

No but seriously I fucking love maps so I probably would have loved this class. But stil.... wut.

In high school, one of first quizzes in our world history class was to label the countries of South America. NBD, right....until we got the quiz and the countries were all cut out and rotated

This was his introduction to us thinking outside the box. He was actually a great teacher.

I always remember where states are based on where they are in relation to Texas.

I had to take a language class for a core requirement. My choices were Latin or Swahili.

I chose Latin because I'd had 4 years of Spanish already in HS.

I regret not taking Swahili. that would've been awesome.

I was an engineering major and took a class called Masterpieces of Music (for non-music majors) to fulfill some asinine core requirement.

We had to write a song.

Wut.

I was nursing and we had to take art history.

We also had to take a logic course. Like, questions from puzzle books. A man and a goat and a fox are in a boat and need to get to the other side type of stuff. It was actually pretty awesome.

VT is landlocked! Nh has 13 miles of beautiful coastline! The mountains, the sea, we have it all.
That's all I have to contribute to this thread I started. Sorry.
