Tuesday Check In

How are you doing today? What do you have to rant or rave about?

Who were your favorite sex symbols from your formative years? Do you still find them or their look attractive?

MrsSarahRenee · August 2014

Do you have insomnia too @MrsL2B‌ ? You are not alone, my friend!

MrsL2B · August 2014

I'm unfortunately wide awake, @MrsSarahRenee‌. I slept for about three hours before being awakened by intense gastroparesis pain. All the stomach bloating associated with that just seems to be making The Boy even more active, like he's fighting back. And the stupid Vicodin isn't making either of us more chill.

I came of age

in a time when men were not afraid to wear a lot of makeup. While I didn't realize then that quite a few of my heartthrobs were gay, I still have a thing for men in eyeliner. Unless it's that kid with the black spikey hair who looks like he's never going to lose his puffy baby fat cheeks. I need chiseled cheekbones to complete the look!

MrsSarahRenee · August 2014

@MrsL2B‌ that sounds miserable! I think my m/s may be creeping back... Since having it until 22 weeks wasn't enough

Today: insomnia as mentioned but I folded all of the baby clothes I washed this weekend. I did not wash all the NB stuff because I don't think I will use it. I left tags on for returning. I have a bunch of housework to do and I plan to have Robin Williams movies on in the background!

Favorite sex symbols: I was a girl of the 90s - boy bands! I loved loved loved Justin Timberlake. Old school blonde tips and curly hair style!
NMS now of course! Although JT now is pretty sexy

I have to wake DH up for work at 6 and then get up at 7 myself and work 9-7:30. I have been up since 3 or so and at this point I have kind of given up on sleeping. And the baby is doing yoga or something because he has not stopped rolling, stretching, and kicking all night. And I feel like gagging.

I second JT. Although I think he is a lot sexier now than he was back then!

32 weeks and I honestly don't think there is anymore room for her!

Sleep is pitiful, and I'd honestly pay for a catheter at night to keep from getting up around the clock to use the bathroom.

But she's cute, and I love her..so I'll take it.

ANGnJON · August 2014

Feeling pretty good today! I slept a little better than I have been! I have to get to the DMV today to renew my drivers license, not looking forward to this!

My heart throb growing up was Christian Slater! His hair, his voice oh my! I do in fact still find him quite sexy & attractive, lol! I clearly did NOT grow up in the 90s, I'm an old lady! I will be 37 on Saturday as a matter of fact $:\$ ">

ANGnJON · August 2014

@MrsL2B‌ I hope you get some relief soon, your stomach troubles sound awful!

suprsuz · August 2014

How are you doing today? What do you have to rant or rave about? I'm doing good today. It's gloomy outside, so I'm sure I'm going to doze off at some point.

Oh and I think I have finally trained myself to sleep on my side. I removed the body pillow from the bed last night and did just fine.

It's nice to have a little more space in the bed now.

Who were your favorite sex symbols from your formative years? Do you still find them or their look attractive? The younger me was all about Will Smith - I have a thing for ears.

And although I don't care for shorter men, I do love my some Marky Mark.

MrsSarahRenee · August 2014

Mmmmm Will Smith!!!

bumpuser10309732 · August 2014

I am tired! I just want to go back to bed. Oh wait, that's every day :-) Had a good doctor's appointment yesterday. She told me how LO is sitting so now I know what's poking me or sticking out all the time.

My first crush was Johnathan Taylor Thomas (JTT, anyone?) That was the Home Improvement days. He doesn't do SHIT anymore! Otherwise it'd also have to be Justin Timberlake, who is also still a problem for me. DH gets annoyed when I wear his concert T to bed but damn, it's one of the only ones that will go over my belly! Haha!

DreadGamerWife · August 2014

How are you doing today? What do you have to rant or rave about? Doing decent. Was awake between 2:30 and 4:30 this morning....but was able to get some decent sleep before and after that.

Who were your favorite sex symbols from your formative years? Do you still find them or their look attractive? I am also, 37, so late 80s and early 90s time frame. I remember the big hair rock stars (Jon Bon Jovi, especially) and later, the big county music stars (Garth Brooks, etc). I have to admin, Bon Jovi has aged rather well... $:\$ ">

Liss1481 · August 2014

How are you doing today? What do you have to rant or rave about? No complaints today other than a little tired and it's the start of my work week today - blah. MH is working nights this week too so I'll barely see him until Saturday.

Who were your favorite sex symbols from your formative years? Do you still find them or their look attractive? Jonathan Taylor Thomas from Home Improvement and Leonardo DiCaprio when he was on Growing Pains. Don't really find either super attractive at this point though.

@MrsL2B I hope you feel better soon; that sounds awful

MrsTinMKE · August 2014

How are you doing today? What do you have to rant or rave about?

Doing ok today. I am functioning at work, so I can't complain, I am just damn hungry.

DH and I got all of our baby cloths washed and put away yesterday and the nursery is coming together. I feel accomplished. I am worried about not getting through all the NB stuff as well. I should have waited to take the tags off! Oh well, most of the outfits were purchased on clearance at great prices. I will eat the cost I guess.

Who were your favorite sex symbols from your formative years? Do you still find them or their look attractive?

I am 27 - so this may seem a little odd

, but I had a big crush on Paul McCartney (from his younger days) Grew up listening to the Beatles because of my parents. I don't know, there was just always something about him! Yes I still find him attractive!

roundabout2 · August 2014

How are you doing today? What do you have to rant or rave about? I am tired today. And right now I am irrationally mad that our stupid vending system for lunch here at work will NOT scan the item I want, and I tried 3 of the same thing. ugh, if only I had someone I could call and yell at.

Who were your favorite sex symbols from your formative years? Do you still find them or their look attractive? Bret Michaels, he's totally skeevy now (cough...manwhore) but I crushed on him when I was younger.

Ravenbaby · August 2014

Just super stressed at work. Its silly really because I am a contractor so I shouldn't care as much as i do. I have a huge project to finish and feel behind. Worst case scenario it won't be my problem but I am just not built that way, it stresses me out that I might not get it done. ALSO I have a lot of freelance projects I need to finish before baby. With all this stress its likely baby will arrive early and I won't finish any of it. Gotta stop stressing!!!

Also I feel guilty for stressing about everything but the baby. With my first all I did was sit and think about him. I feel like she is getting zero attention from me. ;/

Jennifer18131 · August 2014

The last two nights I've had muscle pains in my stomach next to my belly button. Last night was really bad! It felt like a pulled muscle and hurt like a mother every time I moved. H was very worried that it was contractions, but it was a 1x4" space and not all over, and they stopped, so it's not that. I'm guessing its just growing and stretching pains. Whatever it is, it needs to stop.

My big celeb crushes were JTT and JT. JTT isn't much to look at now and I have outgrown the long hair thing. I would leave my husband for JT with a moment's notice.

I am chilling today, working from home. I have a crap load of stuff to do, but have decided I can't stress myself out too much!
So like @ANGnJON, I am on the older side, so my childhood heartthrobs may or may not be recognizable
I used to be in love with Larry Baker (John from CHiPs). Did not age well.
Also, Richard Dean Anderson, aka McGyver ... and he is still delicious.
And Johnny Depp from the real 21 Jump Street. He's gotten super weird now that he's older and is not as hot.

I can't believe I forgot about Richard Dean Anderson...I had the biggest crush on him when MacGyver was on.
