  • @kobrien827 That's so exciting that your sister's getting engaged! How is he proposing?! That's crazy that Ronnie wasn't very friendly... he seems like he would be!
  • @meladams10 He is taking her to her favorite place in the city. I am going to be in the background (hopefully she doesnt see me!) so I can witness it then going to dinner with both families. 

    I thought he would be friendly too but I think he was there for pleasure, not promoting anything so maybe he was sick of everyone coming up to him??

    The fly on my jeans busted while at work today.  Guess it was a little strained  :#  luckily my shirt is long enough to mostly cover it.

    GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous?
    My grandpa was in politics so I’ve met the Clintons, Bob Dole, Ruth Bader Ginsberg and some lesser known senators and congressman.

  • @kobrien827 I'm glad you get to witness it! (: 
     @coco2787 If everyone did, I hope we follow them!!! 
  • Lurking from TWW - I think all the Jersey Shore crew are assholes. I briefly met Vinny - what a joke. 
  • @kristah2 It sounds like we'd be better off having not met any of those fools! Haha. Fx that this will be your cycle! (:
    @LJMoon6 I agree! Maybe everyone is enjoying a 3 day weekend! I work for a hospital so, no holidays for us! I think you should definitely BD EOD as much as possible and sacrifice the sleep. It does get tiring, but at least you know you're giving it all you got!

    WAYDTGKU: stuff


    R/R: sorry I’ve been MIA. I miss you guys, I do - but work has me not wanting to touch my phone or laptop. I’m really trying to stress less and it’s impossible with these asshole bosses. Will try and be back for tags tonight, if not, hugs and love to all <3


    CS/Q: 


    GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? I live in LA so yeah, haha. Uhm, Jacob Zachar from Greek, Kristen Bell, Teri Hatcher, Sophia Bush, Ed Westwick, Marcus Foster, Kevin Hart, the whole main cast of Shadowhunters and lots of my favorite authors (I think they count, lol) like Cassandra Clare, Veronica Roth, Victoria Aveyard. And I’m probably forgetting someone.

    WAYDTGKU: Charting, temping, blah blah blah

    R/R: Rant: I have been so tired the last three days that I'm about to fall asleep at my desk. I have about 25 meetings for the rest of the week so I need to snap out of this. Rave: AF ends today. 

    CS/Q: Not yet

    GTKY: Have you ever met anyone famous? Not really. I've met people on the outskirts, but not really famous people.

    @leafyarch Sophia Bush is my girl crush. (if that wasn't obvious by my pic) I would love to meet her.
    @LJMoon6 I would probably choose sleep unless I'm sure I'm in my FW. But there is very little I would sacrifice sleep for. I'm not fun to be around if I haven't slept.
    @coco2787 I had a wardrobe malfunction at work today too! It was more of a ME malfunction that required me to go home and change my clothes. I'm glad you were able to cover it!

  • @meladams10 I’ve had an HSG. It wasn’t fun, but it wasn’t terrible. It hurt when they put the catheter in, like a strong cramp, but the pain was very brief. Pretty much everyone on the IF thread has gone through this, so you’ll more advice and feedback about it if you post on the questions/chartstalk thread, because not everyone is on the dailies.

    @kobrien827 Hope all goes well with the engagement!

    @coco2787 I am so jealous that you’ve met Ruth Bader Ginsburg! I <3 her.

    @LJMoon6 Sorry the acupuncture didn’t work out, but a massage sounds great!

    @leafyarch Sorry work has been so stressful!

    @wishiwaspreggo I’ve got no advice on the castor oil, but I’ll be curious to hear how the fertility massage goes!

    @brookepdavis Being tired at work is no fun. Hope you can get some sleep tonight and feel more alert for all those meetings!

    @meladams10 Ya I think I will sacrifice the sleep.  I do want to feel like I’m doing everything I can… But to be honest I think I’m at the point where I don’t think it will happen naturally for us… I would love to be wrong tho!

    @leafyarch Missing you around here! Sorry your bosses are making way more stress than you need.

    @wishiwaspreggo I was thinking about getting a fertility massage. When in your cycle is the best time to get one? I was thinking during the TTW?

    @brookepdavis FX you get some rest! 25 meetings sounds brutal!

    @darkstar42 I’m so sorry about CD1.  I’m fast approaching the year mark too and I’m scared how I’m going to handle it. I feel like I'm letting myself want it more… Where will you be traveling for work?  Anywhere fun?!

  • @LJMoon6 Nowhere super exciting. A conference in Atlanta. I've never been though, so traveling somewhere new is always fun.
  • @LJMoon6 - I have no idea when you're supposed to get a fertility massage lol... I just scheduled one for March 3rd in the evening since that's what worked best for my schedule. I plan to discuss my treatment with the therapist when I get there to see what she recommends. I know part of it is teaching you how to do the massage yourself, and that you're supposed to do it up until ovulation day, but I don't know how that'll work for me given I'm taking Gonal-F which will go in my tummy near the massage site. I don't want to do anything that'll hurt my ovaries. Apparently one must be very careful with FSH when you have PCOS. No wonder my RE was so concerned last time I did it.... sure wish she'd have told me I had PCOS. I'm gonna be salty about that for a while.
