Yes we have changed focus a bit in 1560 pages. Juicy/funny confessions still welcome though!0 -
Really embarrassing...
Last night, my husband asked me to cut up some of his spicy pickles. I cut them up, brought them in to him, then went to the bathroom without washing my hands first. Wiping burnt so badly that I sat in the bathtub for 20 minutes just trying to soak my areas and get all the pickle juice off. I now feel as though I can identify better with those who have suffered from chlamydia.
I can't even imagine this. I did do something similar with BenGay once. It wasn't fun.0 -

We miss you too!! Excited to hear about this case, woo hoo!!
This does sound exciting!0 -

I can't believe I shared that.
I did the same thing!! Except instead of water I put dish soap in it. I didn't think drowning it in water would be enough to keep from digging it out of the trash can...
@MoHousdon, have you gotten BINGO yet?
I still love when this one shows up. It's my absolute favorite.0 -
Someone sent me a pretty nasty message earlier. In return, I ate 5 pieces of bacon (was going to be a pound but it burnt me and fell on the floor, and as mopey as I was, I won't eat floor bacon), grape juice (I've been drinking water only for quite a while, with the exception of an occasional glass of OJ) a big bowl of cereal (I didn't measure, but I guestimate it was 3 cups), and chicken tenders pan fried with mozzarella cheese. My normal 1000 - 1200 calories is pretty well shot. I tried to exercise to make up for it, but I just didn't want to. I'd rather go play a video game and sleep.
Was the message from someone in MFP?0 -

He's doing much better today, the doctor ordered him to not go to work and rest, which he did. He's going back tomorrow, but he says he's feeling better and not hurting now. I'm still going to make him follow up, since my manager at work today told me she had the same issues last year and it turned out to be a really bad ulcer that was causing her problems.
I'm having a moment of reminiscing tonight, because as of tomorrow morning, I'll officially have a child in 3K. She's beyond excited, I'm wondering where in the heck the time and my baby girl went!
Glad in the hubby is doing better. So cute on Raelynn!0 -

Oh, and the best part? I have NO idea why I was crying. At all. I just woke up completely depressed with no known reason.
I had a feeling things weren't too good today.... you were very quiet. Sorry. Hugs to you and I hope the blues pass soon. I think you need to have some cookies every day. I think you get sad when you don't. You are like the female cookie monster...just not shaggy, hairy and blue (color wise not emotional wise). I hope when you eat cookies you also don't spray crumbs everywhere.
My nephew did that last week with cookies. He's four & thought it would be a good idea to take three to four cookies & when his older sister asked if he was The Cookie Monster he took them all & crumbled them all over the table. The little stinker thought after doing that he wouldn't have to eat them & I said oh no you're going to put them in a bowl & eat them.
That is priceless!0 -

I'm soooo relieved that I'm not the only person who does this. I usually just hang my tops, pants, and sports bras by my window and let them air out between workouts during the week. I only wash them at the end of the week.
Did we pop back up in the general thread? I am always surprised when we get these old confessions all at once....0 -

It's such a small, insignificant thing coming from someone I don't know, but it still put me in a zombified, self-loathing state of mind for the next couple of hours.... especially because he was right, I did mess it up.
Similarily, if I buy something and the cashier seems irritated, I end up getting really sad and thinking it's all my fault even though I KNOW it's probably just work (and probably rude customers) making her upset.
I hate confrontation. I get how you feel, completely. But, it really doesn't have anything to do with you. It's on him!
Agree with this and you need to stop taking this kind of stuff to heart. You will always be sad if nasty people get to you. There are a lot of nasty people in the world.

Confession: I don't know what is wrong with me but today has been a bad food day. I already ate all 10 twinkies from the box I bought this morning.
I was at my lowest weight before vacation and now I just can't seem to get back to being good with food...
Tomorrow hopefully.
I am seriously impressed with the 10 Twinkies. I probably shouldn't admit that in here.0 -
I am watching Last Comic Standing and am pretty irritated with who is advancing (well, more so who is not)......ugh0

That would do need to figure out. I do that all the time, book things as an incentive. And then don't train. it doesn't always work. Are there any half marathons locally in Dec you can start training for as a shorter term objective? Or even a 10k in like Oct or nov?
Its going to cost me nearly £1000 in flights and hotel (about $1500) for a week. It better be a beeping incentive!
there is windsor half marathon on 27th September, but I'll have been back from holiday for 2 days, so i think that will be beyond me.
there is a 5/10/15/20km walk/run/jog at Eton Dorney on 23rd January.
Definitely don't do the 1/2 in Sept its too soon. Look to the Eton Dorney that sounds more reasonable.
So, I think a week will be good.- Get there Thur, Race Expo Friday
- Race Saturday/nap or hotel (house) pool (NOTE if we rent a house or get a hotel we need a HOT TUB), then dinner on Broadway
- Sunday recovery/Zoo (believe it or not it will be good to move)?
- Monday Plantation/tours
- Tuesday Broadway/Nashville (will be doing a bit of that probably Friday too but we don't want to walk too much) or if we have had enough of Broadway/Nashville more tours?
- Wed either one more day relax/day trip or leave?
I plan on driving down so will probably drive down a day early or same day depending on when you are getting in when you book your flights. So I need a travel day each way too for driving.
sounds good to me. I can get a flight that gets in to Nashville about 4pm local time on the Thursday, and one out the following Wednesday that departs at 5.15pm, letting me sleep overnight.
A hot tub is a great idea. I was looking at cheapo motels, but if we can find a house to rent that would be awesome.
Well we have to stay in the same place. I think we'll look to rent a house or condo. I do think there will be at least 4 of us minimum. If it's just the two of us we'll get a hotel. Nothing too crappy. And a hot tub is a must.0 -

I don't mind a comment when I post a bump photo in the batcave, I'm rather inviting them. But coming unsolicted from acquaintances I hardly know, um no thanks. If you wouldn't say it to a non-pregnant woman, why would you think it's okay now. I'm not upset as I know he wasn't trying to be rude. I just think it's a crappy double standard.
When is it ever OK to tell anybody that they're awfully big? I mean, really.
Yup. This.
And just for the record..I saw your picture in the Batcave and think you look great!
(which I already commented on..but I'll say it again).
I am in total agreement with this!0 -

You MUST try to get to the Grand Old Opry if you can move at all on Saturday night. If you can't, you must see the Ryman Auditorium during your visit. Since imam not racing, I'm probably going to try to drive down Friday and home on Sunday. Nashville is just 4.5 hours from my house.
I am NOT missing the Opry! You can crash with us!0 -

This was so wrong on this guy's part for so many reasons.

Depending on how many people, I have tons of room at my house. But no hot tub yet.
I have a jacuzzi tub in my master bath that I use constantly, definitely love the idea of a hot tub.
Oooh free place to stay!0 -

I did a ladies 5 miler that was on the day before the Windsor half a few years ago. Don't know if they still do that, but it was quite good, around the great park.
Yeah its on again this year. Does look good. Not sure I'd be up to it having just got back from holiday!
but i have just signed up for the beginners course with Burnham Joggers which starts from 2nd October.
Excellent this is a fantastic move!0 -
Ok I own 1562. All caught up!0

I eat food that is past the use by or best before date if it still looks/tastes ok. I'll chop mouldy parts of cheese, and vegetables and use the unspoiled parts. I've consumed milk that was nearly a month out of date because it still tasted ok and only bin food if it's well beyond edible.0

This morning I was tired and struggling to get going and I forgot to pick up the sandwich my boyfriend made me that was right in front of me. He handed it to me and told me I was ungrateful. I said I'm not, just not very with it. He told me that if I go to the toilet to make sure I remember to take my (under)pants down if that's what my brain is like. Sorry @spamarie 0

Yes it does. It makes me 1 in 200. My mother carried it (grandfather colour blind) and my dad is colourblind. My colour blindness is so severe that I was rejected from the Navy.

If you like magic/fantasy, I highly recommend the Fablehaven series by Brandon Mull. Also, The Black Magician trilogy by Trudi Canavan and the Septimus Heap series by Angie Sage. Some of my most favorite books EVER. The Black Magician is a darker one, meant for older readers, but still kid-friendly in the language/graphic descriptions (basically the only kind of book I'll read).Well, you all were busy over the weekend and just now I am getting a chance to really catch up. @ShibaEars so glad the bat was negative. Huge relief for you!! I don't really get migraines, but I have seen my sister go through them and can sympathize with those of you that do get them. I have been trying to figure out what I want to watch next, but I have been walking more and losing interest in TV and movies pretty much. Give me a good book.
Lee Ann! What are you reading now? I'm a book lover, ever in search of the next great story. :-)
What types of books do you enjoy?
I like fiction, mostly fantasy (magic makes me happy), literature, and detective type novels. But I really will read most anything. My favorite series is by Patrick Rothfuss and is called the Kingkiller Chronicles. It's meant to be a trilogy, but book 3 hasn't yet been written. The first book in the series is called The Name of the Wind. It's got interesting characters, magic, coming-of-age story, mystery, and a school of magic.
I loved Harry Potter. I like young adult fiction, too, and have been reading lots of that over the last year or 2. I love Louise Penny (Canadian author who writes a very, very good detective series featuring Chief Inspector Gamache. Beautifully written, compelling, complex characters, interesting plots). I love Jim Butcher (author of the Dresden Files - professional wizard/detective).
I read All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr earlier this year and will never forget the story or characters. It is amazing, heart-wrenching, beautiful.
What do you like to read? Do we have overlapping tastes?
I love the names of fantasy characters, but this one reminds me of a relative of mine. My great, great grandfather was called Septimus, the reason being he was the 7th son. How cool is that? There's even a photo of him on ancestry.com because he started a business that's still going today. He looks like a proper boss. Septimus is an impressive name to live up to and I think he did.

I peeled the crayon wrappers off my color blind brothers crayons, so he could not read the colors. Then I would get all the crayons.
I'm a mean big sister too. My younger brother had a thing whereby he wouldn't eat broken biscuits (cookies). So if he had annoyed me somehow that day, I would get to the biscuit tin a minute before him and snap every single biscuit cleanly in half. Even if you found the two matching halves, he refused to eat them. No biscuits for him.
He deserved it, he used to eat the ends of my felt tip pens so they wouldn't draw. He'd have green or purple all over his face and deny he'd touched them. I regret nothing.0 -
