  • Just please get on a plane before the snow. I don't want to have to sleep at the airport arrival's gate. :smile:
  • 100% true. I've also found the reverse to be true, too. If someone (especially an SO) doesn't like my animals, it's a red flag that they're jealous I'm giving attention to something other than them. At least in my experience.
  • I have a comfy air mattress & plenty of room!
  • I understand, sorry. That's why 1/2 of us who are in FL came from inner-city places with -45 wind chills & shoveling frozen snow just to get out of our doorways in nor'easters to shovel out our on-street parked cars... then have to do the same when returned, as we can't save parking spaces & it's illegal to use a flame…
  • This is a great point. I'd be curious to learn if the majority who suffer with this kind of worry & perhaps anxiety/depression around relationships are mostly introverts. I'm introverted & had these issues when younger. As introverts, there are probably fewer relationships in the pool, so losing one or having problems with…
  • I'm going to join ya. WiFi runs throughout my community, so today it hit me that I should be up at the pool sending off resumes rather than being indoors. Besides... I still don't have furniture yet & well, a pool chair looks refreshing right about now. Tomorrow, I declare the pool as my office.
  • Attempt #3 at making a cup of espresso. Twice this morning, I forgot to place the cup under the portafilter & it brewed all over the counter. How exhausted do you need to be if you can't figure out how to make a cup of coffee, when you've been doing it daily for 25-yrs? Note to Self: Pay attention!
  • Well, it's good that you have an exit plan. I've had that same issue at jobs... being the reliable one, who worked all the OT for the dept 'til I collapsed. I'd never work those many hours again & recently quit a job after 1-mo for that reason. When I complained to my brother about it, thinking he'd commend me for working…
  • Lol. I do the same with potato chips. I must be on CCTV in 100 supermarkets across America, circling the chips isle like a starving shark. 99% of the time, I leave them on the shelf... but, it takes great effort to do so. When I give in, I always feel awful physically & about my lack of self control. My problem is not…
  • True to both. Up through my 20s, I used to try to win everyone over & although it worked 75-25, it was too exhausting a process & then I resented both of us for my having to work so hard, so my wasted efforts didn't foster a friendship in the end, anyway. No one should have to work hard to gain approval from another. If…
  • I was listening to one of AJ Benza's podcasts this am... don't judge... & he described A-Rod as someone who will never be faithful & would have his way with his own reflection in a mirror. I'm paraphrasing, as his language was far harsher. I ran a mental list of all those I've known in my past and/or am related to, who…
  • Since we're quoting Prince lyrics, my mantra for today would be... "You don't have to be cool to rule my world. Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with, I just want your extra time and your kiss..."
  • If it's just one person & neither of you care about each other, I'm confused, why is this an issue? What is it you have to deal with? Are you unsure how to deal with this person when you see each other because it's on a daily basis? If that's the case, just be civil (if there's eye contact, say hello, if not, walk on by) &…
  • Well, if she bought him new jeans, then... Okay, I know it's wrong to smirk at the situation, but... can this filed under the label of poetic justice and/or knowing thy intended victim, fore they may be kinkier than thou?
  • Isn't that mentally exhausting? I stopped doing volunteer work for that reason. Instead of being thanked for a full day of service, I'd get pummeled with emails, texts & in person requests for more, more, more. Plus it would cost me $ to volunteer for the types of services I was doing, between parking/carfare & products I…
  • Same. I've also never had the type of job/salary where I could entertain the thought of just taking off a month to search my soul while walking the Great Wall of China or being able to afford a personal trainer for 1-yr.
  • Vikka... I've been having Verizon glitches the past 2-wks, if that's your service or if it's part of the Verizon network... people I've left VM for swearing they've never received them, with that "I know you didn't leave a VM" attitude. :( Also, a friend I texted on the 7th, suddenly replied yesterday, saying he swears the…
  • Bummer, but glad you're feeling better! Glad you got good meds.
  • Snap out of it! Now!
  • Both nice songs, with very impactful videos. Thank you so much for this, Voll!
  • I crashed hard for some reason. Had so many naps, it's safe to say I just didn't get out of bed today. I'm exhausted from being so exhausted, of late.
  • Is that a champagne cocktail? For me, 5:30am... ham & eggs, then 30-min of mild yoga. Have a great day, All!
  • Finding local ballet, museums & theatre. I need a good dose of culture.
  • Send out 10 CVs.
  • My Bloody Valentine "Only Shallow". I never tire of the shoegazers... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyYMzEplnfU
  • Lol. The Pulp Fiction Uma/Travolta dance scene is the one that gets me. He's just so bloody cool in that movie.
  • With a Travolta strut no less. You win... you win!
  • Yes, I believe that, truly! Don't accept defeat. Leave no stone unturned, as if looking for a job. We don't give up with jobs... we have to keep searching. Same for a partner. Keep moving on, keep searching, keep believing you deserve the best. I'll bet you do! Do NOT accept less than you deserve!
  • :smile: Just bought plates today... big plates.
  • “When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.” - Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist I've seen so much evidence of this, I no longer have to reinforce it. Find the positive thoughts/people/actions. There are more of them than vice…
