    I saw this today and it made me think of this thread.

    Guys! I have 10 pages to catch up on - stop being entertaining!

    I know this feeling. I've gotten to the point where I've decided that if I want to do something I'll just have to do it by myself. I go to movies by myself, shopping by myself, and in January I took my dog and went away for the weekend. It was great. I've gotten tired of waiting for other people to finally be available so now I'm getting a "screw it, I'll just go do it" attitude.

    Definitely this. For various reasons I've always felt the odd one out and that friendships I have made have faded/been cut off. Not only does this mean it's more difficult to make friends - the more I put in the harder it will hurt when it ends - it also means I've grown pretty independent. I go on holiday alone, go to gigs alone, go to the cinema alone, go on excursions to art galleries/hiking/museums/new places alone. Sometimes I like it - I can do what I want... but I do feel ALONE.

    Confession: When the confessions on the thread get serious I want to show sympathy/empathy, give support and advice but I'm rubbish at it. I get really awkward and don't know what to say. So I'm not ignoring them - I just don't know how to respond appropriately. (I'm even worse in real life.)

    I went out to a bar with my husband last night. My parents have the kids and we haven't been out in years. I put on my six inch hooker boots and tightest pants, had two O'Douls (I don't drink) and ate cheese fries on a whim. I haven't eaten anything on a whim that wasn't a full on binge in months. I felt so normal! I then of course logged it and was right at maintenance so I would say that's a win.

    That's a fab win! I'm looking forward to getting some "keep 'em on" boots if my calves get thinner.

    Me too, most of the time. Or it's been too long or I feel like it's redundant of what others have posted.

    This actually was a really hard thing for me to learn to deal with off-line, although even though I'm still awkward I've gotten a bit better about acknowledging things and trying to express sympathy or the like. Part of it is that (off-line, obviously less so on-line) I'm extremely private even with the people I'm closest to and certainly with people I know less well, so I always think others may not want to talk about stuff or have others raising it even to express support, etc.

    Confession: I not only do not like cats, but I hate them. I am allergic to them, which doesn't help, but I know that is not their fault.

    Our neighbors cats are always in my yard, my flower beds are full of *kitten* and one will not even grow anything in it anymore because the cats have pissed in it so much. Every spring, when the snow melts and I have to go clean up two five-gallon pails of cat poo, I silently plot their deaths.

    The neighbors don't do anything about it, no matter how much we complain. My husband is the mayor and the only thing they can do about it is set up cat traps and charge a fee for them to get their cats back.

    I effing HATE cats!

I get mad at the owners because they should have some consideration and control their animals. I take measures to ensure my pet is contained and cleaned up after, so should everyone else!

    Confession: I weighed out an actual serving of mini eggs last night. So disappointing. Ignorance really is bliss, because ignorance = more mini eggs.

    ETA: I don't know why the quote thing isn't working right.[/quote]

    My cats are indoor. I would wig out at them being outdoor cats I would be terrified they would get hit by a car. All are fixed and use litter boxes. And are so excited when I get home and snuggle up and purr like freight trains after they have eaten. I love having cats.

    I told my fiancé that I was doing my pushups in the bedroom so the cat wouldn't bother me, but the real reason was that I didn't want him talking to me while I was doing them.

    That's where most of my type and delete stems from. I especially hate when it's something like someone having a death in the family on facebook, where you're expected to say something, and everything I type looks like I copy and pasted from a generic sympathy card.

    My mom has the kids tonight, so date night for the hubby and me! Sushi and alcoholic beverages! Excited but worried because I didn't get to the gym today as planned. I'll pay for it in the gym next week and definitely won't be logging anything today.

    On a totally unrelated note, when my bladder is full or even partially full I have spontaneous orgasms. Sometimes I hold it on purpose.

    My cat totally likes to bother me when I'm doing pushups, so it's not a bad excuse. He rubs against me and sometimes tries to jump on my back. So far I haven't logged extra calories for that (I don't log pushups anyway unless part of a bigger workout), but I kind of want to when we get good, just so I can log "Loaded pushups (11 lb cat)."

    Mine tries to play with my hair, while looking at me like her human's being weird.

    There used to be this girl who worked at a diner I would frequent in NJ. Her face was unreasonably flat, so we glossed her "hit in the face with a brick girl." Well one day, she got a boyfriend, and we couldn't help but overhear her talking about her boyfriend and how great he was, so we started calling her boyfriend Mason, because what do mason's do?

    THEY LAY BRICKS.

    I am still laughing at this....... So funny and so mean.......

    Wow the only fun part of my post was cut off! So trying again.


    2) I am going to be so sad when people get used to my weight loss and stop commenting on how much weight I have lost and how thin I have gotten and how good I look. Total ego trip.

    ^^

    Mine forced me to exercise in the basement (he's totally afraid of the basement). I got sick of him mocking me by languidly stretching out and silently judging me, trying to trip me, and - when I was exercising on the floor - his rear end suddenly appearing perilously close to my face. I love him dearly, but he's such a booger. <3

    I do not understand people that let their cats outside, it is so dangerous for them!

    I am watching Brokeback Mountain, again. I love, love, LOVE this movie. I could watch it over and over and never get sick of it. I usually am not a fan of romance but this one really hooked me. The end always makes me cry. I seriously love it so much I do not understand why it is not on everyone's favorite list!

    No judgement! Everyone has their preferences but I can't handle this movie, sorry :( But I'm glad you enjoy it!

    Brilliant movie! I need to rewatch it.

    I'm baking heart attack brownies today, 2 giant batches of them, to take to my work and to the hubsters. I'm going to eat some. The confession is that they are roughly 6500 calories per batch (yup. six THOUSAND five hundred calories).

    I let mine out. For the first few years he was on a leash. The when we moved to a house with a fenced yard we will let him out without the leash. He is a big scaredy cat and doesn't leave the yard often and when he does it is just to lay on the front step. He only goes out when it's nice out as he hates wind, rain, snow, and cold.

    My cats used to be outdoor cats, we lived on a dead end street and we were the unit at the far back of the block. Now we live on a fairly busy street and they've had to get used to be indoor kitties because one of them is the most arrogant thing on 4 legs and believes that her right to lie on warm asphalt trumps the cars right to drive on it.
