    Life is short I want to live hard. I plan on being me to the very end. With friends or without. It does get lonely, my mom was my best Friend. She passed away.

    :( sorry.

    I do however like that you will always be yourself. :)

    So much yes. And the worst part is that they think the teachers can't tell. I can tell at a science fair which projects were actually done by a 10 year old and which were done by an adult. If I can, I'm sure the teacher can. I'm very judgmental about this.

    This is as far as I go helping my kids with projects:
    Kid: "Mom, can you help me with this project."
    Me: "Absolutely! What do you need for it?"
    Kid: Lists off the ingredients/resources needed
    Me: Tell them where in the house they can find what they need
    Kid: Gathers everything they need.
    Me: "Well, my job's done. Glad I could help! Better get busy!"

    We had a staff BBQ today. I ate a whole baked potato with bacon bits and butter and an 8OZ ribeye steak. Guessing about 1000 calories there but I enjoyed every bite. :smiley:

    This will be me when/if I become a mother! Thumbs up!

    Oh yeah. That was me.
    The only problem was when they waited until the last possible minute and needed something I didn't have on hand (poster board being a memorable one).

    Grrrrrr.

    I'm always looking for the "quick fix" to lose weight. Never been a patient person, why would this be any different?
  • Posts: 276 Member
    You know that awful feeling when you're waiting for an answer, any answer, and you've been waiting for over a week? URGH, seriously, why be people hiring so slow.

    I actually find it very ridiculous for hiring to take a long time. I interviewed for a job once, thought I did well and waited two weeks. Heard nothing. Then I interviewed fro my current job and they hired me at the interview. Three weeks later, the first place called back to tell me that I got the job. I informed them that I now had a job and that five weeks was way too long to sit around waiting.

    I binged a few times last week and still somehow lost weight. Then I convinced myself that I could do that now, and ate like crap for the past few days. 2 pounds later and I feel so dumb for thinking I could lose weight while eating 500 calories more than I'm supposed to, but at least the weight will come back off.

    I also stopped taking my birth control because it was making it harder for me to lose weight. Luckily I don't have any need to be on it as of now, but it still felt a little desperate.

    I also only record my weight when it's under the last recording so I don't feel bad about gaining a few pounds every once in a while.

    I also don't have a plan of what to do when I reach my goal weight. I want to maintain, but it'll take some experimentation to see how it turns out.

    God, I have a lot of confessions...

    Why thank you :) Trying out for - and appearing on - Jeopardy crosses my mind occasionally, especially if I have a particularly good run during an episode (if, however, the categories are topics like "Opera" or "Poetry" or "British Monarchy", I realize that I would go full-on Cindy Brady and stare blankly at the camera for the entire round; hence, I haven't tried out). I've often wondered what I would talk about during the mid-round, chat-with-the-contestants section of the game, and now I have a topic. :)

    I always hate that part of the show and wondered why they bother until I realized: Jeopardy is a trivia show so having the contestants share a bit of trivia about themselves makes sense. I still change the channel though.

    I DVR Jeopardy so I'm sure I don't miss it. I would LOVE to be a contestant but feel like I would say something stupid for forget I'm microphoned and swear profusely. I like the getting to know you part of Jeopardy..especially if the contestant is attractive lol...
    I was on Academic Challenge here in Northeast Ohio when I was in high school. Answered the most questions for my class but I also misspoke and said a really basic word completely wrong but they still credited me with the right answer. Being on TV is nerve wracking.

    Yay!! Congrats!

    I kept putting off responding because I was hoping as I got closer to the end of the thread, you would have heard good news.

    I'm happy for you! Also, it's awesome that you get an extra check for unused vacation. :)

    This is why I would by large packages of poster board and keep them hidden. I hate late notification of stuff they need for projects they were aware of for weeks/months.

    Just before my period, I get huge cravings for really bad-for-me food... This week, in 2 days I ate a whole package of Oreos. (But I had them with skim milk! Does that help at all?)
    I really wish menopause would happen soon. (No chance; it's probably at least another 5 years away.) :disappointed:
    The rest of the month, I can take it or leave it. Those few days, no cookie or chip is safe.

    Menopause is not what it is cracked up to be. Now instead of a once a month binge with the cycle, it now comes TWICE a month
    NOT FUN

    Happened to me, too. I got a job offer for another job after I'd already started here. I was already taking relocation dollars (living in corporate housing). I probably would have jumped if I had preferred the other location. I didn't really want to live in Columbus, OH anyhow, so turning them down was easy.

    I also don't need to be on birth control, but I take it anyhow. I always gain like crazy when I stop taking it. My hormones are whack.

    This was the story of my life. Two out of three of my kids were procrastinators. Drove me crazy. We'd have the same conversation listed above except for:
    Me: When is it due?
    Kid: Tomorrow
    Every. Single. Time. Really hated when they'd spring something on me that actually needed my participation like making food to send or attending an event. We live a block from the high school my kids graduated from and every time on my way home if the parking lot was full of cars in the evening my first thought would be, "Wonder if I'm supposed to be there for something?".

    My youngest son played the National Anthem on his guitar for his senior assembly and his counselor knew to call to tell me so that I didn't miss is because he didn't remember to.

    It's Avengers dayyyy! I'm going to go see Age of Ultron tonight with family which should be fun.

    It's casual Friday at work so we can dress down but still look professional. I stopped caring a while ago so today I'm in my Iron Man tshirt. Also my Captain America underoos but those I decided not to wear on the outside of my pants... :)

    Enjoy!!! I really liked it. Went to see it last night. Going back tomorrow with the family (I just couldn't wait).


    My confession is that I don't seem to be able to go to the grocery store without buying ice cream.

    Saw it last night, scrapped my planned dinner for macadamia nuts (can't have popcorn). It was worth it.

    We're going to go see it as a family, but only because we happen to have like 50$ in movie theater gift cards, otherwise it would have to wait. Movies with 6 people are pricey!!
