    Longish and TMI confession:

    I mentioned before that I have a phobia of walking outside because I nearly stepped in a very dead raccoon. I've been trying to work on that, so today I took my son to a park that has a playground and a very out in the open 1/2 mile jogging path circling it. It also has lots of trash cans and plenty of free plastic bags for dog walkers.

    It's hot and humid today, and those trash cans are starting to smell like that raccoon. About half way through my first lap, I started breathing through my mouth to lessen the impact when I'd approach one. An unidentified bug flew in my mouth, I couldn't cough it out, had left my water in the car, and didn't want to embarrass my son by everyone watching his mom puke in the middle of the park from walking a quarter mile. So I swallowed it. I didn't quit, either, I did the rest of my laps before coming home. And then I kept thinking about it, and started feeling a weird tickle in the back of throat, and then I convinced myself it was probably a stray bug leg, and then I started thinking that it was probably a fly, since a bee would've hurt, and flies have been crawling all over the dog poop in the garbage, and yeah, there came back breakfast and the bug. I guess the upside is I don't have to log the bug now?

    Not any closer to wanting to walk outside after this.

    *snort*

    I would've just spit out the bug. I am not a delicate spitter.

    I confess, I've swallowed more than a couple of bugs in my lifetime. It's gross, but it's a fact of life when you run outside before sunrise.

    Or biking, especially in a wooded area. Blech. Or they fuse to your eyeball (because you're too stubborn to wear sunglasses).

    I was going down a particularly steep section of single-track trail and had to pass between two trees. I got a spider web across the face - and the spider came with it! It was on my eyelid and I had my eye shut but I could see the shadow of it moving across my eyelid. I couldn't stop where I was and somehow completed the hill with my eyes shut. I couldn't get it off my face fast enough once I hit flat open ground.

    Did I mention I'm scared of spiders?

    Yikes. The stinkbug in the shower this morning doesn't seem half as bad anymore.

    I kept finding those little b@!$4!&$ in my hotel room in VA. Then just after I got home I found one in my house. I looked it up online to find it was a stink bug and found an article about how they haven't made it to the UK but there are fears about the effect on farming if they do. Must have snuck over in my suitcase. I was worried I was going to cause some kind of ecological disaster. I caught it and flushed it down the loo. Didn't find anymore, so hopefully was just a solo hitchhiker.

    And daddy long legs/crane flies are totally harmless aren't they? They don't bother me, just kind of hover around. Moths are what I really hate.

    I was going to say, I have NO IDEA what these are and I hope to keep it that way! So what are Horse Flies? Because they bite and I thought they were crane flies, so now I'm confused.

    Crane flies are daddy long legs (to us at any rate), they don't bite. Horse flies definitely do. I was in Canada in June a couple of times last year and left totally covered in bites from them. Give me a daddy long legs over one of them any day of the week.

    Yea I googled Horse Flies so I now know what I'm killing this summer. I've seen those before and normally brush them off, not this year sunshine! :naughty:

    I hate horse flies. Being around horses I am constantly killing them. Often if they have latched into the horse when you kill them there is blood everywhere. I had one chase me into the ocean once and then stalk me. Every time I started to get out it attacked. I was young and didn't get the slapping them to kill them. I was in tears. A fisherman finally came and rescued me by killing it.

    I confess, I think there should be more "sugar is murder and killed my family" threads. I get such a kick out them.

    I'll be happy when Fed Up is off Netflix. Every random yahoo who half paid attention to it getting lumped in with people who've been LC for years, as if we all say the same misguided crap they're spewing because also-ran Couric told them.

    if you're looking for a good sugar-battle thread the "Four bags of Oreos" thread fits the bill!

    The oreo thread fighting is making my day.

    I confess, all the Oreo thread makes me want to do is eat Oreos.

    I started reading this one...will finish later but I have to admit I would KILL my husband (if I had one) if he came home with that stuff. I can't have stuff like that in my house at all or I will eat it all. And yes, I have no will power. But I can't say that in there...I would be eviscerated. I was happy to see the guy I can't stand from all the nasty threads is in jail. :)

    Is that what it is?? I've been wondering what the jail thing is about. I thought it was a new thing you could have, I didn't realise it's punishment for nasty people.

    Yeah and sometimes they put bars on their comments so you can't read them. I am not sure what gets you in trouble with what result but it may have to do with people reporting you. I used to read another thread where some folks kept getting put in jail. But the flirting and sexual innuendo between all these married people finally turned me off. I haven't been back in a while.

    I just sped read through the last 2 days as I was behind. This makes me sad as I love reading this thread. But I am tired and need to sleep.

    Also I really have to go to the bathroom from all the water I drank before laying down but now my cats are all laying on me purring. I am going to try to ignore the need to go to the bathroom so I don't have to move them and hope I can fall asleep feeling like this...

    Yuck. Oreos make me want to vomit. At least it's a cookie I will never binge on.

    I'm from Canada and our cereal selection sucks. What do you mean about ketchup chips--are they not in the US?!?! One of the best flavours! What about dill pickle and all the other kinds...? Our selection of products is not that great. Smaller population I guess haha

    We have Uncle Ray's, pickle and ketchup, both. They're local to Michigan, though, so I'm not sure where else in the US has them?

    Confession, not happy today. I seriously want to headbutt my SO. I sat in the cold for 5 hours watching a cricket game for him on Sunday and I think he is going to bail out of my Birthday dinner with my family tonight. Sometimes I can't help but think he is a selfish pri*k.

    YES. I bought 5 lines on the lottery on my birthday which was on the 5th May. So it was 5 5 5, but I'm too scared to check it, because I know I haven't won anything, I never do, but what if I have?? It's like Schrodinger's Cat in my head right now. lol

    Palmetto bugs are massive. Like they're bulked up on steroids. :flushed:
    When I saw my first Palmetto bug, my DOH! handed me a can of Raid. I looked at him like he was crazy and screamed, "What do you want me to do? Hit it over the head with it?!"

    Truly a terrifying moment.

    That is hilarious. Batter up! ;)

    Haha, I spent the first Harry Potter thinking that for a book about wizards, witches and magic it was amazingly realistic that social services didn't get involved.

    This happens to me all the time! If I end up having to move because it becomes desperate I end up feeling really mean, trying to sweet talk my cat and convince her I still love her.

    He owes you all the things for making you watch cricket. Seriously, cricket. *comforts gently*

    I might just go celibate for a month. I think that would hurt more...

    I had two ice cream sandwiches yesterday. I still came in under my calorie goal, but still. I could have had a better snack (not together, but same day) and the second one I had because I was upset with my kid and needed a comforting treat. It's actually good that I can admit that. Gives me a place to start in fighting this bad habit.

    Ate ice cream today even though I didn't really feel like eating it. I didn't want my kid's free dessert with meal at a restaurant go to waste. What kid doesn't want dessert?? Mine didn't, so I felt it was my duty to not let it go to "waste."

    Confession: I keep hearing 'you can't out exercise a bad diet', but I'm gonna try anyway. :p

    Have you ever seen what Michael Phelps eats?

    Oh, my, yes... holy crap... what a grand 'opposite' of most people's circumstance his is... what with his practically 'needing' to rely on all kinds of high-calorie foods to as-efficiently-as-possible replace-as-well-as-fuel-for incredible caloric losses/burns...

    I remember various journalists attempting to eat even a fraction of what Michael Phelps would eat for that day's 'breakfast', and most got sick before coming close to completing such (which isn't surprising, given what it represented (and far exceeded) relative to what constitutes anywhere-near-a-'norm' for most other humans)...

    It actually presents one heckuva dilemma... It'd drive me nuts to have to eat so much of practically 'anything', in order to fuel a 'furnace' that's plowing through so many thousands of calories in a day (for his 2008 Olympics competition days)... O. M. G.

    I read something about a good portion of what Michael Phelps burns in calories is just his body trying to regulate temperature.

    Did they ever accurately specify how much Michael Phelps actually burned during the Olympics?

    Yeah that's not cool in that instance he is definitely a selfish prick!

    Ha ha ha I tried to explain it to my mum the other day. Basically - Cat in a box, it is both dead and alive until you open it and see. Forget about the Geiger counter and the poison, that complicates it too much. :smiley:

    This is one of my BIG problems - Ive always been the family trash can as both me and my wife were brought up with "clean your plate" families. The first time you stop doing it is really hard - but I got a real sense of achievement from it. In the end its your choice. BTW confession - i had 3 (coughs) bowls of ice cream at the weekend and it triggered 3 days of "binging" , couldnt get out of the sugar loop.

    Confession...I eat under 800 calories a day usually to lose weight. :hushed:

    Not judging but please get some help.


    I confess I've contemplated booking a night at a hotel in a quiet place so I could actually get a good night sleep. I haven't slept well in weeks. My husband snores, is on a loud breathing machine, and has restless leg syndrome and kicks all night. I just can't take it anymore. Every time I end up waking up in the middle of the night (because of his kicks, or I have to pee, or the cat meows or something), I have to go downstairs in the recliner to be able to sleep again, and even then I'm so annoyed that it takes me an hour or more. And it's not exactly comfy.

    So I fell asleep at 11pm, woke up at 3.30am, finally fell asleep around 5am and the kids woke me up at 5.30am (WTF kids). I was hungry so I had breakfast early, and my day is probably screwed again because tired + hungry early = bad news.

    I confess I'm starting to get really worried about our trip this Summer because I won't have anywhere else to sleep then.

    Do it! Go to bed early, wake up late, have breakfast made for you. You will feel so much better. Your husband and the kids will get over it, its just one night. :smiley: enjoy it
