Confession Time! ((ABSOLUTELY NO JUDGEMENT))

I must confess that I feel a little crazy and conceited. A month ago, if someone was staring at me, I'd assume that they were lost in thought or there was something wrong with me. Tonight, one of the guys I work with kept looking at me while he was wheeling around patient beds for things like taking them to xray. At first, I didn't think anything of it.. figured I was probably just really close to being in the way. Then he smacked into a computer with a bed. When I looked up because I heard the noise, he was staring at me and paying no attention to the patient or the computer. He gave me a big goofy "oops" grin, and his whole face was bright red. He passed by me several more times throughout the night, and each time he'd stare at me, and when I'd look back his whole face would go red. Honestly, it reminded me a lot of middle school when guys are too shy to talk with the girls and when the girl smiles, the guy giggles and runs away.. The last time he went by me, he asked me where one of the rooms was, even though he has worked there longer than I have, and had just come out of that room about 5 minutes before. Conceited me is pretty sure he thinks I'm pretty awesome to look at. Crazy me thinks I should be wearing baggier pants to keep from having issues like that in the future (I wear size 16/18 right now for my work pants, because I bought them about 20 pounds ago, and can now fit in 12/14... if I go any larger, I'll need suspenders since the belt is having some trouble with the 18s as it is.. hence me feeling nuts)

It takes a little getting used to getting more attention, but own it. You worked hard for it. Enjoy it. If you like him back all the better, but even if you don't it is always nice to know that you are attractive.

So as not to tie up the board for the rest of today, thanks to all of you for your sympathy. I may let myself wallow in pity for the rest of today, but someone needs to tell me to snap out of it tomorrow, please.

Wallow today - it's allowed. Grief doesn't ever go away, it just sort of abates for awhile to return later. Hugs to you!! Thinking of you today. Grief bacon is okay for a day or two, though, but getting back on track returns to you the control that grief can steal away. More hugs!

Your tearjerker story of the day https://ca.news.yahoo.com/little-girl-used-her-allowance-101656705.html

Damn! Those ninjas are cutting onions in my house again.

NSVs today! I took my measurements for the first time since July. I am about 5kg lighter now than then, but the best part was my measurements. I was -2cm on my neck, bust and hips, and a whopping -9cm from my waist! (Thighs are still the same but that's not a surprise).

When I did my C25K last night, I had my Fitbit and my Polar HR on. So I was all geared up for my run!!

I use my garmin for my running and my fitbit for the steps. I look like a NY street walking sales man trying to sell watches off my wrist when I am running.

This week was my first week of work at my first real "big girl" job since college. I absolutely LOVE it and my co-workers seem really nice. My boss is extremely chill, even went to lunch with him and my co-workers at a pizza place on Thursday. Very excited about many more great weeks to come!

I still come to this one first. I like the idea of new folks arriving. New friends. I don't like hiding only in the Batcave.

I always check this one first too. It's still fun, but the batcave is nice for more personal things

Yes I do agree with that. I do like the anonymity there... random folks can't see the exceptionally personal things.

I keep up with both, but this one is almost totally dead now. I usually check for a new post here first, before wandering off to the BatCave.

As evidenced by the fact that FOUR DAYS are currently displaced on Page 1619. There was a time you couldn't get 4 hours on a page!

I sometimes wonder if the 1600+ pages scares people away.
