Re: DRAMATIC POLL
Steph- I just don't get it. Seriously. What part of sweatpants makes someone even think they could be a hint of professional? Granted we don't have to dress up to the nines but sweatpants? Come on. We have a no jeans rule Monday- Thursday so how is there a no sweats rule?
Also, I love furry moccasins.
I can't imagine not telling your kids either... but I think it was my aunt that didn't want them to know? I don't know. She was his 3rd wife (now divorced) and he is engaged again. My grandma told me when she was a little drunk a few months ago. When I told my mom that I knew, she shushed me to secrecy. It makes me kind of sad because he is my favorite uncle, but oh well. At least he wasn't cheating on the women he was with ---I just don't think he makes all the best decisions with relationships.
ETA: I should clarify he is not my biological uncle, my aunt is my mom's sister.
I actually really LOLed when you changed to your most recent siggy, and I remember telling you that at one point.. you must have missed it
It
literally made me laugh uncontrollably for awhile because...well.. idk
why. It was just funny to me for some reason.
Edit. Because I don't know how to type outside of quotes apparently.

I would like too! I have a huge list of books on Goodreads that are still on my my "to-read" list, that sound pretty good. Especially some sequels to series I have already started.
The quotes are super tricky on TN. I'm getting the hang of eliminating some of the stacked quotes. I wish it was easier than figuring out the HTML.
Someone just posted an article on facebook. A woman burnt down another woman's house because she deleted her as a friend.
What the hell is wrong with people?
THE VIEW COUNT FREAKS ME OUT.
I bet they're disappointed when they open the post and there's little drama.
I miss AATB.
That can't possibly be true. People aren't that crazy, are they? Link please!
I would have had my house burned down hundreds of times for that.

I have actually started to hang out there more.. I like them a lot. It just really rubbed me the wrong way that girls were literally just typing out answers for her. Her excuse was that she never had those situations happen while student teaching so she doesn't know how to handle them. Well...she's in for a rude awakening if the thinks every possible sticky teaching situation is going to be experienced first in student teaching. The interviewers should be hearing how she would handle the situation, now how a bunch of random teachers from the internet would handle it. I'm not doubting she's a great teacher, but her just asking about how to answer a few questions on a job app made me kinda weirded out by it.

What is the worst thing someone has done to you that you have forgiven them for? Like something that other people say "I don't know why you are still friends/in contact/with them" etc.
Mine would probably be that I'm still friends, like best friends, with the girl that went through all of my internet stuff (LJ, email, myspace haha at the time it was big, FB, etc).
No kidding. I mean, I see why they did it.. sometimes on TK I have to go back and see why the quote was said to begin with or what quote they were quoting first, but this just gives me a headache here haha.

Probably my most recent ex. He's even invited to the not-a-wedding. *I* don't even know why though.

What did he do to be the worst thing? If you don't mind me asking.
Uhh. they guy who treated you like crap, made you all gothic? That guy?
People do NOT get me still talking to J. Hello, he was my best friend for 10 years, and it's not like he treated me terribly or anything. There are lots of people who don't get that.
J is your soon to be Ex right? I can understand that, if he wasn't treating you terribly or anything.
I felt bad for my friend eventually, after getting over being unbelievably pissed at her. She has a lot of anxiety and paranoia issues and I think it just was really overwhelming for her. She isn't like that now, and I know she felt absolutely awful about it afterward.
Umm well in high school, there was this girl I was friends with who hooked me up with a friend of hers. I REALLY liked him and we hit it off great. Then she decided to seduce him and he cheated on me. She came clean right away and apologized, so I forgave her (and him actually.. but he and I stayed broken up until a year later when we dated again for 6 months). Down the road when I was dating another friend of hers (I met him through a different friend though), she got insanely jealous. She was clearly a very insecure person and even though she was married by then (to a guy who treated her like crap) she couldn't stand that I got to date this friend of hers and she never did, so she told him a bunch of lies about me. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. I haven't talked to her since. She was sending me e-mails and crap for awhile basically copying and pasting convos they had and the mean things the would say about me. She's psychotic.

I sometimes wish I had more of that, haha! I am a really forgiving person by nature I think. I have very few people that I actively dislike on a constant basis.
Yeah, that's him. I am trying to make a clean break, so we only talk once a week or so, but I hope that we can eventually be friends. I don't know if that's realistic, though.
Yup.
ETA: I will add that the invite is mostly because I want him to see me looking amazing and rub it right in his face.

haha OMG I just noticed this now. That is hilarious and weird.
