GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? If you haven't, who would you love to meet?
I worked retail for many years and met some people. I worked in a college town of a Big 10 school and rang out many of the members of the university basketball team. I never knew who they were until my coworkers would come up to them with receipt tape asking for their autograph. Ugh it was so awkward when people did that. Also the rapper Twista lived near one of the stores I worked at so he would come in. I've seen many local new anchors in my store as well. I also went to a papal audience back when John Paul II was pope and he was literally 5 feet away in the pope-mobile.

CD/DPO: 21/ 6 or 5 I think
Timing: Either -5, -2, 0 or -3, -1, +1 ... or something in that ballpark. Basically, "ok".
Testing Plans: None! Not testing early this month. Don't want to test until the day after AF is due, since last month I wasted a test on the day of only for AF to show up an hour later.
R/R/CS: I've still got nothing. Life is good right now! Although I have spent the last couple days giving some of the conversations on here some major side eye.. the drama is real! Oy, some cray cray newbies running things amok in here!
GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? If you haven't, who would you love to meet? I've met a couple pro athletes and they were awesome, I've met Ed Helms and he was honestly kind of a douche. I would LOVE to meet Emma Stone because honestly I think we would be besties

R/R/CS: Just waiting on AF to rear her ugly head at this point.
Eta: @BusinessWife are you from NJ? I saw your dream house post yesterday about Rumson. I grew up not too far from there.
GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? If you haven't, who would you love to meet? I would love to meet Melissa McCarthy or Amy Schumer. I love their confidence

Testing Plans: I originally said Friday, but I couldn't help myself this morning and POAS. BFN. I probably will test tomorrow and Saturday unless my temps drop.
R/R/CS: DH remembered at 9 pm last night that he was supposed to take something for his departments taco bar at lunch today. And he leaves for work at 5:40 am. So I was up making rotel dip (something easy!) early this morning. I swear that man would forget his head if it wasn't attached to his body! Lol.
GTKY: I have met John and Hank Green. In college my roommate and I went to a reading of one of John's books and I got my copy autographed (and hanklerfished...In parentheses because I'm not sure if the crowd here will know about this or not). Hank said he liked my t-shirt. I may or may not have fangirled a bit.

R/R/CS: Big temp drop yesterday and today but I still tested, mostly to keep crazy at bay. Pretty sure today will be CD1. Here's hoping for next time. Good luck to everyone testing soon!
GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? If you haven't, who would you love to meet?
No one yet. I would love to meet a great doctor or writer like Atul Gawande, Nicholas Kristof, Zeke Emanuel - just talk about life and issues in the world. I feel like celebrities would have a bunch of walls up and I am not a chit-chat kind of girl.

Testing Plans: 28 Jan
R/R/CS: I am annoyed that I got warned yesterday for responding to a girl who called me stupid with a gif about nipples. I hope she got warned for calling me stupid!
GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? If you haven't, who would you love to meet?
I used to work at a very popular resteraunt in jacksonville and I waited on all sorts of local celebs. Most 90s Jaguars like Tom Caughlin, Tony Bisselli, mark Brunell. Back when Limp Biskit was cool Fred Durst.
I also went to the premier of the movie Battleship (my dad worked on it) and met the whole cast. Alexander Skarsgard, Peter berg, Taylor Kitsch, Brooklyn Decker. Not Rihanna though, she was too cool. Peter berg bought me a beer at the after party and Alexander Skarsgards hands are the softest things ever. Oh and Liam Neeson grabbed my butt!
CD/DPO: 17/2 (fairly certain)
Timing: -4, -3, -2
Testing Plans: I think I'm just going to wait it out, unless my chart goes triphasic or something.
R/R/CS: Glad to be in the TWW. Would have liked to have hit -1 or 0, but husband had to go out of town. Grateful for getting something in during FW.
GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? If you haven't, who would you love to meet? I have met many famous people. I think Lance Bass or Rosie O'Donnell were likely the most famous, at least at the time that I met them. I would love to meet Oprah.

R/R/CS: This is the best I've felt the whole time I've been TTC. I am like a Jedi Master this cycle. Feeling pretty zen. (Talk to me again in 2 days)
GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? If you haven't, who would you love to meet? I walked through a door with George Clooney once, does that count as meeting? Also stood 5 feet from Ryan Gosling. (Same place for both events, I was an extra in the Ides of March).

Testing Plans: After yesterday's testing BSC fiasco, I decided I wasn't going to test again until Saturday. So of course I woke up and tested this morning.
R/R/CS: So I bought a pack of FR OPKs that came with one straight handle FRER. I used it this morning and I have a very, super faint squinter that showed up within 3 minutes. I don't really trust it after what so many ladies have gone through with them and now I'm mad that I dumped my cup of pee. Also, my temp dipped again today.
GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? If you haven't, who would you love to meet?
This is the perfect question for today... about 4 years ago, I met Alan Rickman when he was in a play on Broadway. I waited after the show a the stage door and got his autograph and told him I had a crush on him. He gave me a sympathetic smile and moved on. RIP Snape
Here is a pic of his autograph.

@whiska Hope you don't get CD1!!
@Marley629 YES! Both of those women are amazing.
CD/DPO: 32/10
Timing: -2, -1, O
Testing Plans: Tomorrow if AF doesn't show.
R/R/CS: Today is a really rough day. I have a really bad cold, so I started this morning feeling awful. Temp spiked way up this morning and even though I shouldn't pay any attention to it because of the aforementioned illness and waking up around 5am to pee (thus causing me not to want to POAS at 6:30, so at least that's something), but I couldn't help but think OMG TRIPHASIC CHART????? So then I got mad at myself for being a lunatic.
Burying the lede a bit here, but the really bad part of the day is that I found out first thing this morning that one of my students was hit by a car when he got off the bus yesterday. He's in critical condition and I'm so heartbroken and helpless. In some ways, it's really hard to be here at school today. In other ways, I just want to hold all my sweet children close to my heart and never let them go. Even the ones I hate.
GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? If you haven't, who would you love to meet? I used to work in the music industry, so I met a lot of famous people. I'd be delighted to talk about it at some point, but today is not that day.
Edited because I can't count.

R/R/CS: we're having out basement worked on as we speak and there are so many guys here working. I'm supposed to be working from home, but I have a feeling I won't get a whole lot done today

DS Born 10/16/16
Month/Cycle: 5/4
CD/DPO: As of right now 45/19, but I had some spotting this morning, so I'm hoping for CD1!
Timing: I'm not even sure. I'm all off this cycle.
Testing Plans: BFN again. If AF doesn't show up, I will have to call my GYN this afternoon.
R/R/CS: Nothing. I'm just in a bad spot right now. I'm still dealing with my health issues as well as being uncertain about when AF is going to show. I think @PocketFullofShells was right. She told me that I Od on CD30. I think I was super stressed with the ILs here over Christmas. It's so weird how something like that can affect your cycle so much. Anyway, huge temp drop this morning. I think I might get to move on to WTO tomorrow.
GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? If you haven't, who would you love to meet? I live in the middle of the country. I don't usually get to meet famous people. We do host some pretty awesome national sporting events. I did get to go to the US Swim Trials for the Beijing Olympics in 2008. It was so cool to see Michael Phelps swim. Omaha also hosts the College World Series of Baseball and I used to sell t-shirts on site, so I got to meet quite a few of the players as they came in to buy merchandise. I also got to meet Coach Tom Osbourne (From Nebraska) when I was younger, and while he's not a national celebrity, it was a pretty cool opportunity.
@LINDSEYRVA - I am so sorry to hear about your student. I don't think people realize how invested we get with our students. A former student from my school was shot just before winter break. He was standing outside his house when there was a drive-by a few doors down. A stray bullet hit him. The entire school was devastated. It just doesn't feel right to have to worry about someone so young getting hurt or dying. Thinking of you today.
Month/Cycle: 3/3
CD/DPO: 19/5
Timing: Great!
Testing Plans: Trying to wait for AF...
R/R/CS: DH is not helping with the POAS desires. He asked me this morning when he got home from work if I had tested yet. It's cute to see him impatient and finally more excited. Must maintain the resolve to not pee on things for the next week.
GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? If you haven't, who would you love to meet?
Never met anyone famous. I don't particularly care to either. I have crazy anxiety issues with being in crowded places, which pretty much makes seeing anyone famous a no go.

@LINDSEYRVA I'm so sorry to hear about your student. I have had a couple students in horrible accidents/pass away and it is so, so devastating to go back to work after something like that. Internet hugs!
CD/DPO: 24/10
Timing: EOD
Testing Plans: Saturday, I don't like testing on days I have to go into the office
R/R/CS: Well no LP spotting yet which is a great sign. H is still in this whiny laptop obsessed and not doing any housework mode. I am losing patience and if this continues we will have an argument soon.
GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? If you haven't, who would you love to meet?
I have not unless you count the band Apples in Stereo. I would want to meet Jimmy Fallon.
I don't know. I'm a total mess.

R/R/CS: nothing seems rant worthy after @LINDSEYRVA 's news and Alan Rickman passing
GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? If you haven't, who would you love to meet?
I've met Tony Hawk, Busta Rhymes, Ingrid Michaelson, Dave Matthews and Johnny Damon. Busta Rhymes and Johnny Damon were total sweethearts. Celebrities make me feel super awkward so I don't seek anyone out.

R/R/CS: I woke up when my temping alarm went off this morning and my mouth was so dry that I took a drink of water from my water bottle without thinking. I was worried that would make my temp lower and I wouldn't get CH, but luckily it was still high enough to give me CH for CD 14.
GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? If you haven't, who would you love to meet?
I've met the violin player for Shania Twain and I met the Barlow Girls (most people probably don't know who they are, though). There are quite a few youtubers that I would like to meet, but no one that is Hollywood famous.

@jhms776 FX for you! I don't like to test on weekdays, either. There are so many things I need DH to do around here, and then he tells me I'm not "reminding him" enough! Gahh! At least he cleaned the shower drain for me this morning so I could clean the tub and have a nice, fresh shower to step into, ;) But I know it was really only bc he was finally grossed out enough by standing in water last night himself.
