Anyone have a confession they want to share, flame free, of course?
I've got one.
Even though I do miss H, I'm kind of enjoying having some time to myself. We spent almost every minute of every day together for about 3 weeks while we were moving and now that our schedules are opposite, I don't totally mind the time alone.
Re: Flame Free Confessions
Im jealous of Mrs. B Rad... I really would love some time to myself. H and I drive to work in the morning, work for 10 hours and drive home at night. Even though we both do our own thing at times, I would love to have a nice weekend away either by myself or with friends.
One of my besties is turning 30 in January and we are planning a trip to Vegas. I am secretly hoping that H won't be able to afford to go, so I can just go with my friends. Its been a long time since I did that.
Im sick of not having any close GFs here in the DC area.... so much so that I would honestly contemplate moving back to Michigan for a few years if I could stay with the govt and same pay. Of course I would most likely move back out here so I can continue to move up in my career. But I really really miss having a bigger group of friends.

JuJu - I hear you on the whole friends thing. H nor I have friends here and it sucks. It is so hard to meet good people and we really aren't big party people. I get so sad when we talk to our friends back home and they are doing something fun like we used to all do together in big groups, etc. I guess that's what happens when you get married and move away from home.
That being said, I flame the area that I live in it, absolutely hate it. I think it might be the worst place on earth. I am tired of working my as$ off and only getting minimum wage. We are not appreciated for what we do by our church bc they are too concerned with getting the new building built and all of the money is going into it.
I have tried and tried to find another job, but can't seem to find anything that works with my teaching schedule. I am seriously considering moving back home after this school year is over (if H hasn't found something in the meantime) and living with my Grandma so I can finish school.
I feel like life is passing me by and that I am not going anywhere. Besides, if I move back home and get a better paying job, we will be able to save money and buy a house faster when H can move back as well.
This. I've even resorted to craigslist (strictly platonic section, of course!) to meet girl friends. But some days I just pine for my friends who know me inside out and I can truly let down my guard around.
Boo.
I'll join this bandwagon as well. Even though I live in the area I grew up in, I don't feel like I have real friends anymore. All of my "friends" have screwed me over in one way or another and I just want to move on.
But I need girl time. I'm starting to resent H because he has his guy friends and goes and hangs out with them and I have no girls to hang out with. It's not healthy for me or our relationship.

Taking Control:Updated 1/7
I need some girl time badly too. All of my girlfriends all have kids too, so to put together an outing for us isnt easy.
J's work gets free Nascar tickets because they do all the carwork on the owner of the speedways antique car collection. We ended up with 8 of the tickets, he wanted to bring our best friends( a couple) & his other 2 sets of bestfriends (couples) I cant stand the other 2 & they would honestly ruin my fun so he caved & we're bringing my parents & brother because they actually appreciate it & I dont have to worry about them getting drunk & being obnoxious & dragging J into the childishness.
Im more scared to get a puppy than I was to have kids. Im scared I wont like him & I wont be able to love him or that I might resent him for having to clean pee up off the floor all day long till he's housetrained. He's a sweet little baby though & he is going to make my children & most importantly J very very happy so I dont think Im going to have a problem.
I hate it when people biitch, moan, and complain about sh*t and just suck the fun out of something. I'm letting broads suck the fun out of mothafuckin' fantasy football. Really? Winning isn't going to make your p*ssy tighter or your tits any perkier, so why biitch about something that isn't a huge deal?
Haha. I laughed too hard at this. Some people just canNOT lose, lca. Cannot!!!!!
It's almost here! Weeeeeeee!
