I don't like horror movies either... but I like Supernatural and X Files.
Will still go see Crimson Peak though, because Tom Hiddleston, but I'm kinda dreading it.
Confession - potluck at lunch, was going to have a light breakfast and try to last until noon... I went to the gym and had a great workout... so I ended up too hungry and had to have a snack. I swear, sometimes exercising completely defeats the purpose.0 -
My goal is to catch up today.
I have a fascination with calendars. I love them. I always have multiple calendars up. I think they appeal to me because I have a short attention span, so I get a new picture every month. I get excited when it's "new calendar day". I tell my dog when it's new calendar day, but she doesn't seem to care.
Yay, I'm not the only one. I have five calendars at the moment (three are in my room, one in the bathroom and one by the computer). One is a black cat calendar and I always tell my black cat about the new picture.My new manager is starting Tuesday and I have to give the New Hire Orientation. I hate doing it, hate hate hate public speaking! I'm torn between doing a crappy job so I never get asked to do it again and trying harder than usual to impress the new boss.
I'm right there with you on this one. Whenever my manager is out I have to help with her part of the new hire presentation. I always get nervous during it and forget what I'm saying at least once. Hate it!noaddedsugarx wrote: »He was so cute when he was a little kitty! -
Now he's a big beast!
AWW. So cute! I wish I could have seen my Lovey as a kitten.I love fat cats. And I can't take 100% full responsibility for coming up with this nickname. My husband and I used to watch King of Queens and there was an episode where Dough (Kevin James's character) was called Fatty McButter Pants by some kid and that cued him into the fact that he was overweight. Or something along those lines. Ever since that episode, Owen was coined with that moniker. It was very fitting. No pun intended.
Awesome. I love King of Queens and I was wondering if that was where you got that name.

Cute animal pics everyone. Maybe I'll put some up sometime (I have to figure out how first).Susieq_1994 wrote: »I feel like that in real life quite often myself.

Ahhh! I'm the same. Mirrors in general kind of creep me out but mirrors in the dark are terrifying.smashley_mashley wrote: »And once, when I was working in a paint store, it was 10 minutes to closing on a Saturday (Sunday we were closed) and I had a 12 person line up which was from the counter to the door and I had a lady want me to do a color match on an emerald green pillow. While it can be done by scanning it, it often takes additions of colorant to get the right shade. I told her it would be ready on the Monday because it could take anywhere from 5 minutes (if the scanner got it right the first time) up to several hours (if I had to add color/shake/repeat and there was no way I would be able to get it done in the 10 minutes that the store was open when I still had to help all the other customers. She was so mad and complained to the manager (on the Monday when we opened again) because she felt I wasn’t giving her good customer service. It is not my fault you wait to the very last minute to get your paint on a Saturday.
HUGE pet peeve of mine-people waiting until the last minute to shop. It was so irritating because you are getting done with a long day and then have to stay even longer because someone wanted to come by and shop one minute before the store closes. I hated that management always let them do that and made us wait until they were done.

I bought a colouring book for grown ups and pencil crayons last night, and spent a good hour colouring when I got home. Yes, I'm 30 years old. No, I'm not ashamed.
I love this! I'm the same. I have a stack of coloring/activity books. They help me when I'm stressed.
Confession: I am actually liking the fact that I have to go to physical therapy for my knee now. It is making it mandatory that I work out my legs/butt. I have seven exercises that I have to do twice a day that work out my lower half. I'm hoping it will help me firm up a bit.
Hope everyone is having a good weekend!0 -
For anyone old (like, really old - I'm 47) Doodleart is back!!

I want to hear this other story0 -
If I "blow" a day, I always stuff myself (literally) and SWEAR that I will get back on track the following day. Well, I have done that everyday for the past month and have gained all the weight back that I had lost previously. Now I have to lose the 15 pounds all over again. :-( I wish there was some way I could change this mindset (in that if I exceed the amount of "allotted" calories per day that I stuff myself the rest of the day)?! Anyway, that is my confession!
I once saw a meme that said something like eating like crap for a whole day because you had one bad meal is like taking a sledge hammer to an iphone just because you got a crack in the screen.0 -

So sorry to hear this.0 -
Doesn't have that much to do with food, but I'm now pretty sane, happy, well-adjusted, etc. but I have one and only one coping mechanism, which is listening to music. If there's too much light and noise and it's killing me I can go sit in my room with the lights off and listen to quiet opera or classical music; if I'm anxious or angry or sad I can listen to various kinds of metal and I've gotten really good at balancing out my emotions that way. But if I lose my headphones I'm completely *kitten*. I'd go insane in less than a week. Probably this isn't as healthy as I think it is bu it's better than any alternative.0

Also, I find the drink name 'Irish Car Bomb' to be highly offensive. As someone who grew up in the UK during the troubles, and knew people directly affected by the terrorism, I can't find it funny or edgy.
No apologies for the judgement.

Totally me... And I don't have an adult coloring book. I have the only coloring book I could find in this country: "The Boys' Jumbo Coloring Book".
I totally over paid for the coloring book, I could've just gone to the dollar store and bought a couple cheap books, but oh well. I had a gift card left from Christmas so I was able to use that 0 -

I know this wasn't my post, but I didn't realize this could be offensive.., and to be honest, I don't know what troubles you mean. (sorry I'm uneducated on this)

If you read the Wikipedia article about the drink there's a link to the troubles.
But in short, the troubles was 30 years of unrest and fighting, mostly within Northern Ireland that resulted in the deaths of over 3,500 people and the injuring of over 47,500.

I've seen one that said it's like getting a flat tire when you're halfway to your destination, and instead of just changing the tire and continuing, you puncture the other tires, smash the car with a sledgehammer, set it on fire, and go back home.0 -

Your post actually got me thinking about some "grown up" coloring books I saw on Amazon back when I was searching up and down for them here. They were like 7-10 dollars for 15 pages (or was it 15 dollars for 30 pages...?) or something absolutely ridiculous like that. Which was sad, because they were really cool. Then I got my coloring book full of little boys, aliens, skateboards, and dinosaurs and didn't care anymore...
Funny but true: While I was searching for a coloring book here in Saudi Arabia, my mom also went hunting for one for me in Oman so I could bring it back home the next time I visited family, and SHE couldn't find anything "grown up" either... So, she bought me a jumbo Dora the Explorer coloring book. 0 -

I had no idea the significant behind the name of the drink until a few months ago the boyfriend was visiting from the UK and explained it to me
Before that I never gave it a second thought. 0 -

I have never been able to actually say "Bloody Mary" three times in front of the mirror. I mean, the odds of something actually happening are pretty slim, but why take the chance?!

Me, but that has nothing to do with monsters, just my feet getting cold.0 -
I underate by a couple hundred calories for two days and then had ~400 extra yesterday. Instead of having it show I went over I split it up and added the food to the low days. In the grand scheme of things it's still a deficit but I felt like I was cheating haha.0

I have to admit..I was pretty excited to wake up this morning and be down .2 on the scale after eating 5 slices of pizza, cake, ice cream, and a plate of fruit salad including chocolate covered fruit yesterday at a birthday party. Anytime I eat that much pizza, the sodium will add about 3 pounds of water weight the next morning. SCORE!
Here's to hoping my sodium-packed lunch and dessert from today will yield the same result tomorrow morning!0 -
Wow not many posts today.
I was totally stalking the buffet at our friends today. Was basically waiting and testing out every new dessert that showed up. No regrets though, for once. Actually enjoying being full as it hasn't happened in a few days. And motivated to get back on track tomorrow.
I was almost the thinnest person there too and someone I've known for 10 years asked me how I managed to stay so skinny. I didn't really know what to say... especially as I had been stuffing my face for an hour. So I said 'not by eating like this, that's for sure'. Not sure how she took it...0 -
I confess that I majorly fell off the wagon the past couple of months by binging a lot & restricting. On Thursday I ate a pint & one serving of Ben & Jerry's Save Our Swirled, a whole pint of Talenti Coconut Chocolate Chip, & Arby's. I weighed myself today & it said 160 which I assume some of the weight gain is from going over sodium the past few days, but I am not going to deny that most of it came from binging. I think my biggest problem is my days off from work & eating too many calories in the morning & afternoon & then feeling ravenous in the late afternoon & night. I am going to try to space out my meals on my days off & see how it goes.
I also confess that I am listening to Hazard by Richard Marx on Youtube. Who killed Mary? Mullet Haired Richard Marx or the Sheriff?
