@looeeze - Cool! I'll put one up in a bit after I actually get some work done at my job.

ajsanders-2 · July 2017

@looeeze - Yes I am from WI!! That would also be a fun idea!!!

fishsticks-n-custard · July 2017

@becausescience I got my 23 and me back a few days ago. Apparently I am overall very boring. 100% European and like 98% British/Irish.

becausescience · July 2017

@fishsticks-n-custard I got DH the ancestry one for his bday because he is super into his family tree and found some adoptions in two branches. I'll be curious to see if there is anything interesting but I'm pretty sure he'll be mostly British.

WISCONSINERS - this is one of the questions for my Bachelorette bracket this week:

At the farmers market in Madison, WI, Peter and Rachel pick out which romantic plant?

-Roses

-Orchids

-Bleeding hearts

-Violas

Are any of these more Wisconsin-y than others?? Halp me.

looeeze · July 2017

@doxiemoxie212 ummm i have no idea, none of those stick out to me. But I'm not in Madison. @becausescience @lurvleybunchococonuts @ajsanders-2 ?

icecubeinthedesert · July 2017

@doxiemoxie212, I've definitely seen bleeding hearts at the Madison farmer's market, so that would be my guess. Almost certain it's not orchids unless there are some new vendors.

doxiemoxie212 · July 2017

@icecubeinthedesert THAT IS ALSO WHAT MY GUT WAS SAYING FOR NO REASON AT ALL SO THIS IS GREAT NEWS

ETA: sorry, my enthusiasm for this is too high

looeeze · July 2017

@icecubeinthedesert: also Wisconsin?

icecubeinthedesert · July 2017

@looeeze, formerly. I grew up there and moved after grad school to AZ. I was just back this last weekend though!

lurvleybunchococonuts · July 2017

lol @doxiemoxie212 I don't watch the bachelorette, sorry! Bleeding hearts are at the Farmer's Market, but I dunno if I would categorize them as "romantic" lol. I feel like in the past I had seen roses & violas (haven't been there in years though). Orchids I dunno if I'd ever seen there. Sorry... not helpful lmao

WELL NOW I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO CHOOSE

ajsanders-2 · July 2017

@doxiemoxie212 - I wish I could help, but I do not watch the Bachelorette...

doxiemoxie212 · July 2017

@ajsanders-2 don't need to have watched! Just need your guess on the flowers based on WI residence lol lol

lurvleybunchococonuts · July 2017

@doxiemoxie212 WI state flower is the wood viola?
ETA, I so didn't know that off the top of my head, google is my BFF

also to add a tag

doxiemoxie212 · July 2017

@lurvleybunchococonuts ooooo that could be it then...

becausescience · July 2017

I have been to the Madison farmers market many times, but was too occupied with spicy cheese bread to look at flowers.

Good luck, that seems like a tough one.

ajsanders-2 · July 2017

@doxiemoxie212 - OOOh! haha! My guess would be Viola.

lurvleybunchococonuts · July 2017

@becausescience heck yeah spicy cheese bread is AWESOME! And stopping by all the cheese tents to free samples! If you're hungry, not lactose intolerant, and bored on a Saturday morning in Madison during the Spring-early Fall go to the Capitol Square for the Farmer's Market! Awesome people watching too

Sigh... That's the one thing I miss about living in Madison.

purplg8r · July 2017

@looeeze apparently every Tuesday, T-Mobile customers can play a game to win prizes. Yesterday you could win stitch fix credits

jsnakehole · July 2017

@lurvleybunchococonuts I don't know what spicy cheese bread is, but I want get to know it.

I wish I wasn't one snark away from getting banned, because I would have loved to chime in this morning. Honestly, I shouldn't even be on here- I'm procrastinating hard on a million and one things.

Pretty much me right now:

lurvleybunchococonuts · July 2017

@jsnakehole I don't wish to encourage your procrastination but I'm just gonna leave this here:

looeeze · July 2017

@doxiemoxie212 @lurvleybunchococonuts technically, the state flower is a wood violet, not viola. At least according to my handy dandy BlueBook.

lurvleybunchococonuts · July 2017

@looeeze wait they're different flowers? o.O heh... I do good. I always thought viola's and violet's were like the same thing

ETA: my bad @doxiemoxie212 lol. I admit, I'm not help lmao

icecubeinthedesert · July 2017

Godamnit, why didn't I get hot spicy cheese bread when I was there Saturday!? I was at the overture center ffs. Ugh.
+1 for @looeeze for wood Violet being the state flower, but it's confusing because viola us in the scientific name. Maybe they are interchangeable words? I kind of wonder if they threw that answer in there because people would Google it. And I thought the wording of the question with romantic might have been a hint at the correct answer?
But fwiw, I'm notoriously bad at multiple choice and never pick the right answer

doxiemoxie212 · July 2017

Y'all. Now I don't know what to choose!

KariAnn323 · July 2017

@doxiemoxie212 I live about an hour from Madison (but I live in Illinois), and have no idea what the answer is. I think I would knock off roses though because it seems too stereotypical.

I'm getting my hair done tonight and I can't wait! My hair is naturally a darker brown and we're doing copper/caramel highlights and burgundy/violet lowlights.

fishsticks-n-custard · July 2017

@KariAnn323 Oh man, that sounds lovely. I have darker brown too (with a decent amount of grey) and have always flirted with the idea of getting highlights/low lights. I hope it turns out awesome.

looeeze · July 2017

So we tried the Preseed again this morning... syringe and all. And umm... there was no leakage. At all. Not even afterwards when I stood up. NOTHING. So now, SHIT, how dry is my vag that it sucked it all up?!

what, where do i play these games??

doxiemoxie212 · July 2017

@looeeze how much did you use? The 2-3 notch mark? Maybe you're just better at getting it up your vag without releasing the plunger first?

looeeze · July 2017

@doxiemox212 I went 1.5 cause I was warned that the 2 would be super gushy. Maybe there wasn't enough. And lol yeah I did try to wait til it was as far up as possible to plunge. but STILL i mean..

doxiemoxie212 · July 2017

@looeeze lol lol I struggled super hard not plunging it as I inserted it, so honestly, that might have been the problem - I also did like 2.5 I think, and I was spotting like crazy, so IDK, I made a mess lol.

Avrilmai · July 2017

@zamora_spin have you been watching the new/last season of Orphan Black? (You watch that right? Or did I make that up) if so, what are your thoughts?

looeeze · July 2017

@doxiemoxie212 lollll ok I must know... why did you jump the gun on the plunge?

doxiemoxie212 · July 2017

@looeeze I didn't mean to! It's just a slippery little sunnuvagun, and I couldn't get a good grip on it to get it up without plunging it lol.

fishsticks-n-custard · July 2017

I think I must be the only person in the world who is a little irritated to NOT see my MIL when she comes to visit. She swore this time she was coming to see us, but, surprise, surprise, she's going to my SIL's house, yet again. I think she's seen my husband (her SON) a total of 3 hours in the last year despite coming to visit our city from several states away a total of 20-25 days in 4 trips.

zamoraspin · July 2017

@Avrilmai Yes, you have a great memory! I have not yet seen the most recent two episodes due to a power outage that interrupted our DVR, and then our DVR not working right. I'm kind of annoyed as I haven't figured out how to catch up yet. The last episode I watched was the one featuring more Allison. I feel like all the sisters are in different places and I'm curious to see how it all wraps up. How are you liking it?

jsnakehole · July 2017

@lurvleybunchococonuts I want to go to there.

I managed to procrastinate enough that I accomplished the bare minimum of what I needed to do. I'm on my way to meet my bestie for dinner and then head to my burlesque master class. I'll prep for tomorrow's demo lesson on the way over. My dad is also having surgery tomorrow (minor, routine surgery- he'll be fine) so needless to say I will not be getting anything done tomorrow.

I need to kick myself into gear with organization and accomplishing things. I've really been slacking since school ended.
