@looeeze After your post, I did a reverse image search. Yeah, I don't think people realize just how easy it is to find out who you are on the internet. #catfishismyjam

@looeeze@fishsticks-n-custard wait what did you guys find? I did that immediately too, but I didn't really turn anything up. Did I have my safe search on?
I'm so sad I didn't have time to read all the responses to that lovely thread today, even though I got there first with the QFP. I'm sure you all did me proud. Hoping no one was banned...

DH bought a bunch of smoked oysters and black eyed peas because he read that they're good for male fertility. I think the peas are mostly because they have high folic acid content. But when I told him to try one of my gummy vitamins (aka 1/6 of a daily dose), he looked at me like he might grow some boobs or something

@KariAnn323, yes, I'm at the big librarian conference in Chicago! Unfortunately I haven't had much time for sightseeing, though I did have some Lou Malnati's pizza. Closing speaker today (Hillary!!!) and then happy to be going home, I'm exhausted!
As I was perusing "charts like mine" on FF, I found a chart where a woman tracked chapped lips. Is there a link between chapped lips and fertility/pregnancy that I don't know about!?

I accidentally washed my dark jeans with my delicates, and I'm now convinced that all of my whites are blue. (Remember that "is the dress white or blue" thing? I'm having a moment like that right now.)
@mamasaurus12415 My parents had to wait a little longer than normal to get their dog neutered because he had a liver enzyme issue. He's a lot more strong-willed than their other male dog and they wonder if it might be because of his late neutering (but of course it could just be his precious little personality - and I'm not being sarcastic. I love that dog's personality.).
@pebbledam maybe there's a strong link between dehydration and chapped lips? I.e., if you have chapped lips you might have scant CM? I don't know. That's all I could think of that's not BSC.
@doxiemoxie212 I thought about that too! But why wouldn't you just put "dehydration" as a symptom rather than "chapped lips"? I vote for BSC. My first month off the pill I was googling "are hiccups a symptom of pregnancy." Eyeroll at former self.
There was a thread a while back about the most embarrassing/weirdest things people have googled while TTC. It was a pretty great read. Very funny and made me feel less alone in my nuttery.
With DH having visited just days before my FW, I'm knee-deep in BSC right now. Every little feeling in my stomach makes me think 'omg, that's a sign!'. But it's probably just gas.
Thats why my new mantra is "You're not pregnant, just gassy."

@mamasaurus12415, neutering my parents dog seems to have been what changed him. He was so strong willed and dominate. He still is , but to a much lesser extent.
@mamasaurus12415 We got our male dog neutered at 6 months in hopes of the hormones not kicking in. And he is super sweet and cuddly. He is also a cockapoo though, so it could just be his "breed" temperament. I admittedly don't know much about GSDs.
With all this wedding dress talk I'd love to see them. Would anybody be opposed to a "AW: Wedding Dress edition" post? (Or dream wedding dress) I tried searching to see if there had been one recently and came up empty.

I know this is kind of a dead topic now but it's been bugging me since last night. I was bored and did some searching into the troll from yesterday last night and found her real name, blog and facebook account. (not going to do anything with that info, don't worry. And if you're reading this, might want to change your privacy settings.) But on all of that stuff she talks about how religious she is and how she chooses to follow God. Really? She's espousing to follow God yet treats a bunch of strangers like crap for no reason. This is why I still consider myself a believer but kind of left organized religion. The hypocrisy just kills me. (Yes, I know I'm a hypocrite too). Sorry, I'll move on now. Just needed to get that out.

@fishsticks-n-custard I'm super jealous of your sleuthing skills because I tried reverse image searching and came up with nothing. But I'm going to review my privacy settings too, because while I love to creep on people, I don't want them creeping on me.

@fishsticks-n-custard I'm religious (and a Christian), and that kind of garbage makes me so mad. My dad always says that when someone tells you what a good Christian they are, you should check to make sure you still have your wallet. Actions speak louder than words.
@beanship Amen. There's a reason I don't tell people I'm a Christian, unless they ask. Because even though I try, I know I screw up all the time; I want that falling back on me, not on Christians as a whole.

@beanship & @holly321 I actually asked the trainer yesterday while we were texting about whether she thought neutering him would help. She (of course) said she likes to train through these things rather than mess with hormones. I'm curious to see if he'll change at all after he has it done. I'm hoping the training will at least make him safe to be around. He's not aggressive in nature by any means, but the trainer said that the behaviors he's presenting now could definitely take that turn.

@fishsticks-n-custard I can totally relate because I'm still fuming about that troll from yesterday too. I hope that everyone in March 2018 will know how she really is because the thought of her just sliding over there like she isn't the world's biggest a-hole makes me feel sick. Her actions were incredibly unChristian and they'll end up effecting her much more than us in the end. At least we're not all rotten on the inside.

@icecubeinthedesert - H asks me all the time to buy him chewable gummy vites, so I offer him my PNV gummies, and he always gives me this weird look like I've offended the God of Men or something. And then sounds like a 3 year old when he says "but those are GIRL gummies, I want BOY gummies".
@izza2 Yes! DH forgot his vitamins on a recent trip and I tried to give him a PNV and he was like "isn't that a girl vitamin?" As if the folic acid in it was going to kill him
