    Where is the line between confidence and conceit? Does it depend on the self confidence of others if someone is bragging or just confidently stating facts?

    I wasn't bragging! Just super confident in my shopping strategies 😏

    Mine was a general thought....definitely not aimed at you beautiful cat person!

    If Santa "sees me while I'm sleeping, knows when I'm awake, knows if I've been bad or good," why do I need to write him a letter telling him what I want for Christmas?

    There’s nothing in there saying that he can read your mind. 🤷‍♂️

    I think it's a contextual thing. Confidence is about knowing what you can do, conceit is about making sure everyone else knows it.

    "Conceited people are often insecure and overcompensate by taking compliments as a given, when in reality, they crave the praise to feed their (low) self-esteem levels. Someone who is self-confident appreciates praise but is not desperate for it."

    Maybe it should be an underwear only day?

    Kidding.. It's already too cold here for that.

    @slimgirljo15 Have you noticed the sense of family that's grown UP in here. Chitchat and Fun Games. You're a great deal responsible for that because you've been building on this for years and years. It's human in here without busting chops and I appreciate it from the bottom of my lil ol' pea pickin' heart. The end. <3
    Hugs and kisses all around to everyone.

    Why is it that I avoid my gym so much, when I feel so much better about myself after I've pushed out a few squats?

    Why am I so afraid of failing again, that I fool myself into not realizing that the failure lies in not starting at all?

    Oh the mind is a complicated place!

    Same. Ugh 😩

    Also.. I caught two more mice again.

    On a side note... I have my portable speaker on the heat duct. CRANKED. Hope they like a little Avenged Sevenfold and Halestorm! Haha 😂😂😂

    A student named David Merrill subjected mice to the music of a heavy metal band called Anthrax 24-hours a day to discover how it would affect their ability to learn new things, but instead of completing Merrill’s maze, the heavy metal mice all killed one another.

    Apparently kryptonite is not Superman’s only weakness.

    I saw an ad showing him wearing a mask.
    It kinda irritated me.
    Actually it kinda made me mad for a minute.
