Re: DRAMATIC POLL
Thanks Steph!
If the latest experiment works, it could very well be tiny humans. With an emphasis on the plural. I'm probably getting my hopes up, but I always feel that if it's gonna happen.. Christmas time would make it perfect. I'm cheesy like that.

eh? Are you doing fertility treatments? (I'm well aware I'm too nosey, so feel free to tell me to STFU. seriously.)
AND I AGREE ASH.

Anna is going to be the best momma ever.
1) Biggest fight with a family member would be my cousin's mother. She accused me of lying about what her son did to me, said I should apologize and "get over it," then literally shredded my books I had personally given to my uncle. Thus began WWIII in our family with everyone taking sides due to her dishonest meddling and I still despite the woman. I don't really have any big friend fights. My only long-time friend cut me off to feed her own addictions and refuses to talk to me.
2) H and I have lame arguments all the time and by the next morning we can't remember what they were about. I guess we bicker about a lot but it's usually done in jest. We've had some big fights, but none I would share with anyone.
3) No good gossip, just stupid people I've talked about before. I did hear about this one old lady who started about a month ago. Supervisors pulled her into big boss's office to discuss her production numbers (way low) and to ask why she wasn't incorporating the feedback she was provided into her sites and continued to do them wrong. She literally got in the supervisors' faces, pointed at them, and said, "It's your job to make sure I succeed. If a site isn't right, then it's your fault." Needless to say, that was the end of her job!
4) Hmm. I don't think I have any good secrets. None that would interest you, anyway, mostly stuff I've heard about people we know secretly addicted to drugs and cheated on their SOs during some gossip chat. I'm sure I know more than that but usually when people tell me something, I either forget it or store it away in my do-not-tell brain lockbox and it never comes back out.
Wait, have you talked about this? Can I ask what happened?

I don't mind. Not traditional fertility since I don't have a problem getting to where i need to be, just maintaining. Progesterone therapy via a groovy non-needle patch and some super powered vitamin s

Edie, yeah I've talked about it before. But I get confused as to with who or when or where, ha. The short version--my older cousin fvcked with me when I was a kid, I didn't tell for about 10 years until I thought he was going after my younger brother, my mom confronted him, and shiit all went downhill from there.
My mom and grandparents were trying to hold the peace since everyone went apeshiit. One aunt who is famous for twisting words and causing drama started with her usual routine and my cousin's mom made it her misison to make me and my immediate family the outcasts. But then my cousin wrote me a letter that said he felt sorry for me being so depressed that I had to accuse him of such things and that he was waiting for an apology. After that, there was no peace to be had and it was just a long however many months of shielding phone calls wondering if I'd done the right thing.
But ultimately I know I did. My brother was safe, that's all that matters. Oh, and the kicker? Said aunt and my uncle (who I love, even though it was his son too, he never blamed me) have moved back to my mom's town. I was on edge all of Thanksgiving worried I'd have to see her, but she decided to stay home (apparently now she is acting super fakey nice to everyone. Whateve,r she's still a POS).
Holy novel.

Well you better keep us updated, Anna! Christmas WOULD be perfect.
ok guys. spill some more drama. We need to keep J entertained when she gets to work. Any TK grudges?
Eat.Drink.BeMarried. Blog.
I'll add a question.
Do you have people from TK who you think are deliberately ignoring your posts because they don't like you?
I'm sure there are people who dislike me. Which kind of makes me sad/annoys me since I'm the least grudge-holder ever. I'd much rather just say "yo, you're annoying. Here's why" and move past it.
Eat.Drink.BeMarried. Blog.
You know what steph, I do have something you would love to hear. But I won't say it on here because I'm not risking that kind of backlash again (it's not about anyone on SB or E or anyone y'all know, most likely). So, check your FBPM in a few minutes.
I don't have much drama though, sorry. I try to stay out of most stuff or let it roll off my shoulders.
I don't know if I'm "known enough" to have people not like me. Maybe though. I do hold back opinions on here sometimes. I'm starting to share them more now so I'm sure someone will ignore me at some point.
Steph- I never understood the whole bully biitch thing. You were one of the nicest posters when I first started. Still to this day I have always had positive interactions with you.
I agree. I like Steph. Even if she disagrees with someone or is overly blunt, that doesn't mean she doesn't like you.

Awww, I wanna know b/c I'm nosy.
Hike- don't hold back! We like opinions around here.
And, to be honest. I was super bitchy for awhile. It's a lame excuse, but looking back- it totally coincided with the craptastic stress and IUD/hormone mess last summer. I think I was just like "meh, fvck it". I mean, I've never been one to hold back or bite my tongue. But, I really did try to take it to heart when people kept telling me that I was coming off too strong. It made me realize that I'm not the best at explaining what I though (which I think was/is true IRL too.)
Eat.Drink.BeMarried. Blog.
Me too. I always assume stuff like this is about me, even though I don't think I've ever done anything to really piss someone off (random former pharmacists not included).

I have this problem too! I can never explain clearly what I'm thinking.
Oh and I'm only quoting bits and pieces cause Chrome won't let me bold stuff.

Any, it's not about you, I promise.
I typically assume people are silently telling me to STFU. Whether about Whisky, work, my crapy house, whatever. But then I remember that I don't care, ha. I'm like my brother, I'll talk to whoever is listening (well, type).
OMG GUYS. Stop responding withotu sharing dramz. You're getting my hopes up!
Oh, and I totally wouldn't be surprised if people are ignoring me or telling me to STFU in their minds. I talk, a lot. About random stupid stuff. I'm trying to work on it IRL, so you guys probably get even more random word vomit. sorry about that.

That J&K chick. She ignores me because I'm fat.
and because I'm 1/2 Jewish
and because I'm from SD
and because I am white-ish
DRAMA
you're welcome
My Fat Chick Blog
1. Biggest fight you've gotten in with a family member? friend? what was it about?
My cousin, who was 15 at the time. She smoked weed when I was watching her one night, and I told her I wouldn't 'tell on her' but I wasn't going to lie if I was asked about it.
My uncle asked me about it three weeks later, and I told him the truth. He piss tested all of my cousins, and OF EFFING COURSE they came back clean. They all accused me of lying and causing drama.
The entire family didn't talk to me for almost 4 years.
2. FI/H/SO/ex/whatever? Who started it? (Be honest.)
I don't know TBH. I've had some pretty lame ones.
3. Best work gossip/stories?
No gossip. I can't stand 90% of the people I work with, so I don't pay attention to anything they do.
4. Any secrets you're just DYING to tell someone, but you can't IRL?
No? I'm lame.
Kay cool =D

No, I would really like you. Like best friends. I'm super random too. I go from talking about one thing to something completely different in 5 seconds. It drives H crazy.
OK nosy nesters, I'll give you the very brief, no name version.
Long, long ago in my newb days, I mentioned being published (on a distant board nowhere near E or SB). Another person attacked me saying having some random poem or school essay published in a no-name book was not being published, so stop trying to make myself sound important. I corrected said person, and was told I was too stupid to be a real author.
Said poster is also a writer, and gets constant rejections for their own work. And I secretely revel in each one because, well, they are well deserved.
