I was going to complain about my 9 hour shift, but ya'll have me beat.
First soccer game tomorrow! No uniforms yet...team pics have to be pushed back. Ugh. I don't think she is a soccer girl but if she DOES want to try another round...it won't be through the place it is now. Sheesh...
I've made progress on my apron! Attached the waistband to the skirt part, gathered and all. It looks pretty shabby as a whole but it is a lot of fun!
I tripped over an ottoman in the dark, jacked my shoulder up! My hand landed on a little side table thing and my shoulder felt like it was going to dislocate as I was going down, holding myself up! So sore today. And busted up my shin a bit. And broke a growler. Idget.
Bought a fanny pack at a yard sale for a cool 25 cents. I currently use a plush dalmation backpack but he gets hot. Sooo...I'm gonna be sportin' a fanny pack. Yup.
Walked into a head shop by accident. There is this tiny "antiques and art glass" shop that has been up the street from us for what has to be at least a couple years. We've rode our bikes past for quite awhile now and stopped in the other day. The chick working wanted to show us a demo with the locally blown glass...she took a pipe out of the case and banged it, I mean banged it like a hammer, on the side of the case...remained in one piece...crazy. Sooo, they sell pipes and homemade stuff like refurbished furniture, tie-dye, local art. Who knew?
I'd love to take a sewing class sometime, that sounds really fun! And, you'll get better the more you do it.
I LOVE LOVE art glass! But I'm so clumsy I'm afraid to buy any.

Angry, hurt, rejected. And strangely, a lot of pity for the poor man. He has to work with me at least 2 days every week, and the last time I was rejected out of the blue like this I lost 40 pounds.
So I guess I look forward to losing about 20-30 more pounds and he has to watch as I am successful in all of my endeavors. He will be feeling a lot of regret about he situation probably around early next year.
ETA: I was also really angry this morning and I worked out WAY harder than I should have. I've also been so pissed, I've gotten a LOT of work done today and I've only been on the clock an hour. I'm about to go do some more rounds.0 -
The first pocket I made...was sooo bad. I the rick rack was barely visible after I turned the pocket and I almost started to cry. I don't cry very often anymore but I felt so defeated. Then I was like, "It is your FIRST time!" I'm very hard on myself if I don't do things well the first time but I knew that all it takes is practice and I'll get better. Every time I make a mistake I just chalk it up to what NOT to do next time. I'm trying to take in the learning process without being discouraged. So far so good...except that first pocket debacle.
Art glass or "art glass"?
We can't have anything breakable. Today alone the pets broke a milk glass lampshade and a mirror. The third mirror is a couple weeks. Azzholes.0 -

LOL, no, the actual decorative-type stuff. I'm not into the other thing AT ALL, but some of the pipes I've seen are really beautiful.

Well, I'm sorry it didn't work out, and for the inevitable awkwardness that will come of it. But, I have to believe that something or someone who is even better for you will come along. You are sweet, hard-working, funny, and gorgeous. Someone else is bound to realize that!

Hey, night-shifters....I'm new to nights (a week and a half in), and relatively new to MFP. Somehow, I've been oblivious to this thread until now.
Is it ok if I don't go back and read the whole thing?0 -
@lilaclovebird His loss!! I'm sorry it was outta the blue but boys suck, we should throw rocks at them.
@belimawr I don't know what those pastries are but they sound amazing!
Welcome to the thread!! Nah, you can probably just fall right on in with us. Unless you're bored and wanna go read our ramblings lol0 -

Nah, just jump right in and start oversharing. That's how we do!0 -

@jennifer_417 @Frankie_Felinius @bethanie0825
I have posted that SSP dumped me and BOOM 7 messages from 7 different guys...uhm...this is a FITNESS site not a DATING site and if I just got dumped, I'm taking some ME time. I'm not going to just jump into a relationship or into the sack with someone right away. It's not how I work.
Plus, I'm cranky and a HUGE b-tch right now so all men who were not my friends prior to this, should run away from me very quickly. Take a good ogle and walk on.0 -

I just realized...this could relate to the drunk text I sent him where I said the 'L' word.....
But I don't want to examine his motives for doing what he did. I'm hurt and angry and I don't want to talk about it.
In the words of women everywhere: "I'm fine."
Which translates to: We can't even BEGIN to talk about it right now.0 -
@lilaclovebird - That really sucks but if I know you, you'll bounce back and be even better than before0

Now I have even MORE time to dedicate to workouts and school! Now if I could just figure out what I want to study....0 -
@lilaclovebird Seriously wtf?
That's cringe worthy right there. A-holes
And we are definitely not a shy bunch, that is a great description of us lmao!0 -
I am SO looking forward to my walk with Tessa later this morning. We only did 1.75 miles because we got a late start and it was too hot for her. I'm hoping I'll be able to get home quickly and get a jump on it today though!0

Whaaaat? An official overnight thread? Hi errbody0

Yup, quoting myself here. I want to PUNCH my COWORKER in the FACE!
Her with her 'my thyroid means I can't lose weight' or 'my doctor is going to give me a pill'
Your doctor needs to prescribe me some fricken XANAX to DEAL WITH YOUR *kitten*!
It's CICO. People on here with thyroid problems losing weight all the time. I send her links and success stories and she just 'well my thyroid' and 'it's just so rough with my thyroid'
NO! It's rough because you want to shove 4 slices of pizza in your speakhole instead of stopping at one or two like a normal person!
/end rant
She gives blatant opinions on how I should live my life, why can't I just shout at her to stop stuffing her cake hole all the time and she might lose some weight?0 -
hey, @lilaclovebird - not gonna message you, because i'm super-sensitive about avoiding creepy behavior right now...but i feel you. i'm 3 1/2 months out of a 15 year relationship, and i bounce back and forth between rapturous amounts of gratitude and getting shitfaced on the sofa and crying at movies.
you have a right to be judgmental and pissed off and to feel all the stuff you're feeling right now.
not trying to hit on you, just trying to pass along a little validation.
i'm not sure i have the energy for hittin' on anybody right now, anyway. just got back from the gym. 0 -

OH! AND I'm excited for a new gym to open up in my town. No contracts, 24 hours, personal trainers, and posted daily challenges! My mom thinks she might even join with me!sufferlandrian wrote: »@lilaclovebird - That really sucks but if I know you, you'll bounce back and be even better than before
I do believe you're right.

My thyroid makes me sweat like a wh*re in church and I can't handle the heat. But if she's hyperthyroid like I am, she should be losing weight. I've dropped 10lbs in a month and didn't do a thing. She sounds pretty special lol, nothing is ever her fault. I'm hoping the meds work here soon, the sweating is p*ssing me off.
And I agree with @sufferlandrian
And I
