Confession: I'm not shutting up on here this morning because I'm trying to ignore how nervous I am about my interview(s) today. I'm actually skipping lunch because of said nerves (and the timing), so I'm making buffalo chicken pizza for dinner! The "extra" calories (plus whatever I earn at the gym later) will make it guilt…

It's possible that the bruise is the cause. Since your body's still doing damage control, you could be retaining some water from that, just like how people are usually up a bit following an intense lifting day. I usually go with the assumption that if I'm sore, I'm retaining at least SOME water for the repair. Stupid…

I may need to try this, though I'm not sure I can get my other half to agree. He didn't think he'd like buffalo chicken pizza though, and now he requests it! Confession: I sometimes miss working at a pizza place and consider seeing if I could do it super part-time somewhere.

Swank!

We do, but we all also all love Rocky.

I'm too cheap to buy Target dresses full price. :p Really though, I am a champion bargain shopper. It's such a pain to find things that aren't too long on me/too pricey considering I'll probably have to factor in tailoring (or invest the time to so it myself). This is one of the reasons I'm so annoyed at the price of…

Oh, my other half knows full well that I have Internet friends who I talk to just about daily. When I brought the Halo Top home I explained to him where I heard about it, and about @Franci27's warning not to eat a whole pint at once. ;) He can't judge me because he met several friends we now know in real life on a message…

I now want to do this just to see who reacts. Ha! ETA: Logging that way, not actually doing it. I can't not eat for three hours (when awake). I'd never make it three days.

That's understandable. Sprinkles taste like happiness, afterall. :)

I can't be trusted with expensive sunglasses. I have 6-10 pairs at any time because I constantly lose or break them. I have one pair of Gucci glasses my mom got on super clearance and then decided she didn't like, and I'm paranoid when I wear them. Ha!

It's a Tesla Model S, so there's no engine (electric with a battery that's smaller than a briefcase, that's under the body of the car). There's a store inside the King of Prussia mall, and my friend made a comment about how I was so short that I could probably hang out in the "enginge" compartment. ...so I did. :)

I can respect that.

Yeah, @BZAH10 and all her warm and fuzzies will do that to you. ;)

What is your reasoning for this? I'm curious since it's not a goal I often see someone sharing with me!

That seems much more reasonable. Any chance they updated the calendar after you'd checked it?

Not judging, but if he's old enough to drive...why isn't he keeping his own exam schedule?

But kitty mama win!

I think that work be a pretty sweet deal for those 30 days. Not so much the rest of the year. I absolutely DESPISED working nights.

I just added a bunch of you and am 110% sure I missed folks, since I just open new tabs for profiles as posts come up. So, if you didn't post (or possibly get quoted) in the last 10 pages or so, I didn't get you. Ha! ETA: Possibly also if you did. Things start to blend. ;)

Quality first contribution!

I am about to do the same thing! :)

That's actually an interesting thought. @Susieq_1994, is it still dawn to dusk for people who work overnights, and get to sleep during daylight hours? (Do people even work nights there? ;))

Hey hey hey. No judge-y pants! ;) We're 952 pages into this thread, and that post has probably been quoted 200+ times (I base this on wild presumption only with no facts whatsoever). I think we've all begun to wonder about that! It's not a dig on the people who do it, since that would be against the spirit of the thread. :)

Can I just say how awesome this thread has become? Yes, it started out about trash bags, peanut butter, and hot chocolate powder, but it has evolved into a community within the MFP community where people actually CARE and SUPPORT one another through stupid decisions, horrible situations, and hilarious escapades. You all…

Technically, rice itself is sugar when it breaks down. Ha. I just cannot get behind rice pudding. That's like trying to make oatmeal savory. Does not compute!

Your husband is a smart man.

You people putting sugar on your rice are monsters. Confession: There were times when I was super broke where rice with barbecue sauce was dinner. Still would.

I got my better half a Hugo Boss watch (steel, with a blue face and silvery roman numerals) as a sort of oh-hey-we're-engaged! gift. It's a very classy looking watch, but didn't cost anywhere near $9k. ;)

I am quite known for telling people that raisins "do not belong in food." I do have a bag of the super tiny boxes in my office though. They're good for blood sugar headaches. Stupid raisins.

I'd have been absolutely pissed if someone did that. What if you didn't accept their offer (I'd hope they were definitely planning on making one if they did that)? That's obnoxious. I *think* I am going to see how the interviews (yes, plural - one dept, one HR) go on Friday and call her on my way home if I think it went…
