  • *storms about to move through again, so I'm up - might as well play!*

     

    What was the cause of your last fight with H/SO? Stupid miscommunication. He went one place, I thought he was going another, and it led to an ugly blowout.

    If you could eat anything right now, it would be: Ugh. Food doesn't sound appealing at all right now. I could go for some dulce de leche ice cream though.

    Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage? Negative. I have friends of friends who lost everything, but I don't know anyone personally.

    When did you last see a dentist? Earlier this month for my six-month check up. It was nice to not have any cavities; I had two last time.

    Do you bring a small gift to an engagement party? If so, what? I've never been to an engagement party, but I would bring something. Not quite sure what would be appropriate...maybe a bottle of wine? A picture frame? Like I know.

    Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy. Well, my siggy spells out the most interesting news in my life right now. Super anxious and scared, but I'm hopeful this baby gets to come home with us.

    What was the cause of your last fight with H/SO? His time in tx got extended and of course I'm being a pouty brat about it. But dang...hubby home > $$

    If you could eat anything right now, it would be: a banana split from braums

    Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage? Yes, but nothing that wasn't fixable, thank goodness 

    When did you last see a dentist? Like 2 weeks ago!

    Do you bring a small gift to an engagement party? If so, what? I really hope no, because I am clueless at what to bring!

    Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy. I called the storm shelter company and reserved 2 shelters...one for mom and dad, one for my grandparents.  I love forcing safety on people and spending their money for them. :) Lol

  • What was the cause of your last fight with H/SO? Patience, and my Coke habit.  I drink Coke almost every day and way more than just a can.  I have more patience for a 2 year old spirit.  I told him to find his vice so that he can have the same patience.  :/  

    If you could eat anything right now, it would be: Icecream with a warm chocolate chip cookie on the bottom

    Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage? Yes, hubby's BFF and my dad's cousin. Does that make him my great cousin?  They both lost their homes.  

    When did you last see a dentist? A couple of months ago.  I had no cavities but I am looking for a new dentist before my next cleaning.  I am irritated that the hygienist can't remember me or anything about me. My previous hygienist could remember everything (I don't care if it was all written in my chart, at least it felt like they gave a crap!) 

    Do you bring a small gift to an engagement party? If so, what? Wine.  They will need it to help through the process of planning the wedding.  

    Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy. My builder missed our deadline and cost us some money.  DH is pissed and I was irritated but over it.  In reality if I was a typical client I would make him cough it up but in our situation (he is also my client) I am just telling DH to go with it because I will make it back in no time at all. Now, if he misses the next deadline and costs us money again I may not be able to convince DH to chill. Hell, I won't be able to stay calm about it either.  I want to effing move already!!!

  • Oh Ebonie, I am so excited for you!  Prayers for a rainbow!!!!
  • What was the cause of your last fight with H/SO? We honestly don't really argue very much but maybe bicker. He can be a little moody and withdrawn sometimes, so I think I got on to him to change his attitude channel and he grumbled.

    If you could eat anything right now, it would be: watermelon

    Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage? No

    When did you last see a dentist? last month

    Do you bring a small gift to an engagement party? If so, what? I've never been to an engagement party, but I probably would bring a bottle of champagne or a gift card.

    Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy. I just found out the voice of Mickey and Minnie Mouse married in real life. Saw that on pinterest but I didn't try to see if it was true or not. Cool though!

  • What was the cause of your last fight with H/SO?

    The topic was really trivial, but the cause was massive stress of the whole.tornado situation coming to a head

    If you could eat anything right now, it would be:

    Chocolate. I'm hormonal

    Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage?

    Yes. We need a new roof, gutters, downspouts, vents, fence, and garage door.  I know at least two families who lost everything.

    When did you last see a dentist?

    February. I go every six months.

    Do you bring a small gift to an engagement party? If so, what? 

    I would depending on how well I know the couple and how intimate of an affair the party is. A bottle of wine?

    Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy. 

  • imageBoyMom21:

    What was the cause of your last fight with H/SO? Not sure. It's been a while

    If you could eat anything right now, it would be: I'm starving so right now a lot of things so amazing. I think if I had to pick it would be grilled chicken, my mom's homemade potatoe salad and fresh green beans with sweet tea. Yum!

    Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage? I have a co-worker who lost his house, but they are ok. M has a couple of teachers at her school that had damage. I also know 2 people who lost family members in the tornado.

    When did you last see a dentist? A long time ago. Embarrassed

    Do you bring a small gift to an engagement party? If so, what?  The last engagement party I went to I didn't (that was also 9 years ago)

    Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy. I'll tell you how I scarred my dad for life the other day.

     

    I had to make an appt with my dr because it's been 9 weeks since I had AF (sorry TMI). So I thought I was texting DH to let him know about my appt, but I actually texted my dad. I told him that I had an appt to get my cycles jump started. He texted back "Ok, tell your mom? I don't really need to know about your cycles". That's when I saw that I sent the text to the wrong person. I was so embarrassed. So lesson learned don't just skim the name on your phone before you text.

  • What was the cause of your last fight with H/SO? Me taking 3 days off work to go on a yearly "vacation" with my mom's side of the family. He felt like 3 days extra was entirely too much time. Whatever.

    If you could eat anything right now, it would be: I'm currently eating Milk Duds, so nothing sounds particularly appealing.

    Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage? My cousin's house was directly hit in Talala. If none of y'all got hit last week, then his is the only one.

    When did you last see a dentist? Last fall.

    Do you bring a small gift to an engagement party? If so, what? I don't think I've ever been to an engagement party.

    Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy. A fiber optic line was cut in Bartlesville (last night? this morning?) and it's knocked out the majority of internet, television, phones, and cell phones. With these big storms moving through - this is causing a major problem.

  • What was the cause of your last fight with H/SO?Erm, I can't remember actually. Most likely something money related (like me spending too much money on my hair)... but he apologizes like .05 seconds after he says anything rude.If you could eat anything right now, it would be:And not feel guilty about it? a huge piece of chocolate bread pudding. :)  Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage?Not directly. When did you last see a dentist?It's been since we moved into the rent house, but I have an appointment for next week. Do you bring a small gift to an engagement party? If so, what? I bring a bottle of wine or a little gift set to make their favorite cocktail... (Speaking of which, on vacation last week I discovered a new favorite - the Paloma. It's tequila and Fresca (which is zero calorie) with a twist of lime. Yum.) If the friends are REALLY good friends, I give them a free engagement session.Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy. My day job is commercial real estate data collection/photography so after the tornado I had to drive the path of it and catalog/photograph all of the damage... which was absolutely heart-breaking. I think about all the people who lost loved ones, lost their homes, were displaced from their apartments, were out of a job when their place of work was destroyed... 27 commercial properties were destroyed - almost half a million square feet, GONE.Anyway, I couldn't help but put myself in the shoes of a victim who lost their home, going through the resentment phase of the grief cycle, when i drove past Jim Bowers mansion off 134th & Penn... his house didn't even lose a shingle. It looked so ominously out-of-place among all of his neighbors' decimated homes.

  • What was the cause of your last fight with H/SO? Don't remember?

    If you could eat anything right now, it would be: Not hungry, just had lunch ;)

    Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage? Yes, a co-worker and a few other people. We were fine.

    When did you last see a dentist? January 2013

    Do you bring a small gift to an engagement party? If so, what? I can't remember the last time I went to an engagement party as a guest. A couple of weeks ago I was performing at one so I wasn't required to do anything but play my flute!

    Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy. Evidently I think other people are shiitty friends because I actually try to learn about the interests of my friends, family, and H. Ergo, anyone who doesn't is a bad friend. I never said any of that lol. I genuinely care about the interests of others and learn a little about them. Is that all that weird?

    What was the cause of your last fight with H/SO? Money-related I'm sure, but I can't recall the specifics.

    If you could eat anything right now, it would be: Something salty.

    Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage? Yes, we know some people whose homes were destroyed. And last night we sustained a small bit of damage ourselves.

    When did you last see a dentist? Too long ago.

    Do you bring a small gift to an engagement party? If so, what? I don't think I've ever been to an e-party.

    Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy. I'm in New Orleans right now with my dad, and the other night some guy on Bourbon St. tried to get us into his strip club by telling us there were lots of t*tties inside. Awkward times with Dad. o.O

    If you could eat anything right now, it would be: bagel with cream cheese

    Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage? yes

    When did you last see a dentist? seen my orthodontist last week. Hopefully only 4-5 more weeks of braces. These every 3 week trips to see him are getting annoying.

    Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy.

  • First off, congrats E!!!

    What was the cause of your last fight with H/SO? Oh Lord. A communication issue. I am just not very articulate and in my mind, bounce from place to place and assume he follows, he doesn't, but gets WAY too mad too easily and BAM.  Huge argument. We don't fight fair.

    If you could eat anything right now, it would be: An M&M cookie from Panera. Which I am about to devour because I have one on my desk right now!

    Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage?  Nope.

    When did you last see a dentist? Two weeks ago? I love the dentist. Have never had a cavity! 

    Do you bring a small gift to an engagement party? Hmmm.  I would probably bring something for the hostess? I'm not sure. 

    Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy. Oh good Lord. I have a friend that has gone off the deep end. She believes everything her (married!) boyfriend tells her...and the latest story I was like WTF? And normally I just side eye her and ignore it but this time I said "Is there anything about that story that raises red flags for you?"  It is the most absurb BS I have ever heard in my entire life.  I would feel sad for her but this has been going on so long that I no longer give two sh!ts.

  • Thanks for the congrats everyone. :) Hope you all have stayed safe through the crazy weather!

  • What was the cause of your last fight with H/SO? Last real fight would have been work/life balance and being distracted at home (him). That was awhile ago...wintertime. We have little spats often that are over within 5-10 minutes that I can't remember a day later.

    If you could eat anything right now, it would be: I just had a nice bowl of peanut butter cup ice cream.

    Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage? Yes; some families at my school, and my neighbors in Edmond.

    When did you last see a dentist? June 2012 Embarrassed

    Do you bring a small gift to an engagement party? If so, what? Normally, no. I just bring a card.

    Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy. We just got back from a week in Destin. It was amazing and our first big vacation as a family of three.

    imageBoyMom21:

    What was the cause of your last fight with H/SO?

    probably something silly like him forgetting to turn off the lights or something 

    If you could eat anything right now, it would be:

    chocolate chip cookies 

    Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage?

    a friend is having to have her house rebuilt and a few friends had damaged roofs, broken windows, trees down etc. M was at work Friday night and his car got some hail damage and a window broke. Nothing too major.  

    When did you last see a dentist?

    a couple of weeks ago 

    Do you bring a small gift to an engagement party? If so, what? 

    Probably a bottle of wine 

    Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy. 

    V and I were talking about money this morning and I told him that the money in his bank account is to pay for college. I aked him if he knew what college was and he said "yes.  It's just a time to have fun and mess around."

  • Oh man! Really late to this, but:

    imageBoyMom21:

    What was the cause of your last fight with H/SO?

    I honestly don't remember. We bicker sometimes but we don't really fight. I'd be up for a brawl now and again but DH is really low key. I'm sure it was about someone's tone when they said something,

    If you could eat anything right now, it would be:

    Chips and queso.

    Did you or anyone you know have tornado damage?

    No, thankfully. Indiana is much less weather-prone.

    When did you last see a dentist?

    2 months ago. My mom is a hygienist, but I hate going.

    Do you bring a small gift to an engagement party? If so, what? 

    I'd take wine or wine glasses or a cocktail set.

    Tell me something interesting, funny, or gossipy. 

    Sorry- I'm boring tonight,
