All right, Imma bout to get all Dear Diary up in here because I'm now on my soap box haha
DH and I are babysitting for someone DH works with this weekend. The husband is nice and the wife seems nice but I know way too much about their problems from the beginning of their marriage, like when our husbands were at training together she was living with another man and had pot problems. Now I know that pot isn't a horrible drug but considering the line of work our husbands are in and with secret clearances, you can go around doing illegal shit. They ended up working it out, we can to Korea and they came a few months after. Last summer, we did a lot of double dates and all she would talk about is how she wanted a baby so bad and her husband (and I quote) "wouldn't give her a baby"! Like for real! She got KU really fast and delivered via c section here in Korea, complained about her experience (I wouldn't deliver here if it were me) and then when their son was 2 months and their parents flew all the way to Korea, they left their infant with their parents for a weekend to go party and go clubbing. Like if I fly halfway across the world you better not make me babysit! All she does is complain about how boring her life is now that she can't go out and she posts these ridiculous selfies on FB like she's some hot teenager when in reality she's a mom in her 20s and needs to start acting like it.
She did at least ask how much I wanted for babysitting. I wasn't expecting money b/c I don't think you should have to pay friends or acquaintances for favors but they are bringing chicken wings which is nice. Like she's not horrible but everything I see her I just pity that baby because his mom is a mentally child herself.
@hartmich@shstephenson@slavenski@WillRunForWine21 I feel the same way! Every time I think about the fact that my sister got accidentally KU 3 times (and can barely afford them all right now as it is) I get all bitter and angry and why does it happen for her when she wasn't even close to trying but it isn't happening for me when I'm actually trying and having well timed sex. And the same thing with a coworker-she is currently KU with her second although I don't know her financial situation as well she and her bf aren't super well off.

Man, ladies, life truly isn't fair. I hate that there are so many people around us that make us feel this way. I know that I complain to H a lot and sound like a broken record, but I can't help it. I'm so glad that at least we have a safe place here.

Heads up for the ad problems: AdBlock (the extension) is your friend. I've had it on my personal and work computer since TB added the ads/videos, and I haven't seen one since. Right now, on this thread, it's blocking 12 ads for me.
