Thursday Confessions

All right, this board has flat-lined.  Let's spice it up!

Confession: I was late today because I found out at the last minute that we're going out after work for dinner and drinks with friends, and I spent way too long picking out my outfit.  Not only is that a super lame reason, but people assumed it was because I'm still sick and I didn't correct them.

Re: Thursday Confessions

  • I confess I just witnessed 1st graders dance better than me. See if I ever go to a pep rally again.

  • I confess that I am on protest and so I haven't done any work today. They promised me an "early" promotion and raise in JULY and I still haven't gotten it. Its my two year anniversary of starting here so it's just an extra reason to hate this job. Anyone hiring? haha
    September 25, 2010!
  • I confess that really not in the mood to be at work and i can't help but think about sitting at home watching a movie in my pjs.

    I confess that my DH is starting to get a complex b/c i'm not KU yet even though we've only been trying since labor day weekend.  I'm gonna give in and let him get lucky tonight. Smile (and probably a lot this weekend). But I'm gonna let him think it was his idea.   Ok, sorry if that was TMI.

  • I also confess that i'm sorry my posting posted 3 times for some reason.  And i can't delete them!

     Sorry!

  • i confess that due to my period, some really bad news (twice), and a major headache, i want to just skip the gym, go home, cry and snuggle with myself.

    i probably wont though, since that wont actually make me feel better :< 

  • I confess that I am super nervous to start my coaching (figure skating) job tonight. I am not really sure what to expect of the kids and parents. It is the rink I grew up in so that is just added pressure. I also confess that I hope the kids aren't as good as the parents are saying they are just to make my job a bit easier the first couple weeks.

    Along these lines...I confess that I am using skating as an excuse for buying lots of leggings, sweaters, down vests, and Uggs. :) I need to stay warm.

    (((hugs))) go to the gym and then go home to snuggle with some wine.

  • I confess that I'm really nervious about what I'm starting on 11/7...
    I'm starting to sell Arbonne skin care, if I do OK it'll be a nice surprise, but I'm so scared that I'll have a mega fail!  I don't have a lot of female friends (in the flesh) so I'm worried that no one will buy anything and/or no one will want to have a party (inviting their friends) to hear about my skin care products.  I just don't want it to be an epic failure.

    I also confess that we've ate out 3 times already (Sun, Mon, Tues) this week and will be eating out again tonight since it's a friends birthday...I feel like such a huge fatty!  At least I eat healthy for lunch and during the day, until dinner time!

    Um can I please come and be in your class? I worked at a theme park in college and during Jan/Feb we had "Snow Days" and we had an ice rink built and one of the ice skaters was teaching me some things. It was so much fun!

  • I confess that after one month I finished all the work they needed me to do on this 3 month long project.

    I'm trying to sneak in other projects while I'm on their time for the remaining 2 months. 

    Why should I be punished caused I work fast???

  • I confess that I've gone to the kitchen at least 20 times today to grab food from our potluck.  Who keeps biitching about being fat? ME! But who keeps shoving food in my mouth? ME!  And I don't even have my period as an excuse :(

    Sorry you feel crappy, Shauni.  I also vote you snuggle w/ some wine!

  • I received a nice bonus (except uncle Sam taking 34% of it for himself) yesterday and am delaying on telling DH about it. Simply because his surprise Christmas present an Xbox is on it's way. If I tell him flat out that I have it now he'll want to go out and buy it today and put the rest in savings. I'm on board with saving it but also want to splurge since I haven't received a sales bonus in a year and a half.

  • J's insane spending habits are driving me nuts. I feel like all he does is talk about the next big purchase he wants to make and it makes me financially nervous.

     Stef, you have no idea. My hubby came home Monday night with a $600! toolbox. Grr. I've been feeling guilty b/c I have been wanting to spend less than $200 on stuff I've been waiting FOREVER for. I just can't stand it. *sigh*

    Is this something you guys discussed prior to marriage? I mean if his spending habits are making you nervous, I think that's kind of a big deal. Hope you can take time to talk about how you feel with him.

  • I have a sad confession, but I only want to post it once and then not talk about it anymore. I am pretty sure that I got KU this month, but that this morning I lost it. DH has been very supportive and reassuring, but I am very upset and have been holding back tears all day.

  • It was just kind of scary I guess. DH is being great about it, and my SIL assured me that it's normal. Her OBGYN said that 80+% of women miscarry the first time. She told me it's a good sign that I can at least get KU. I've just always had this fear for some reason that I wouldn't be able to have children. I don't know why, I've just always had that in the back of my mind. So to have this happen was very upsetting. Plus, I've been watching Giuliana and Bill.

     DH is being really really great, so reassuring. He says we'll just keep trying and we'll go to the doc if we need to soon and if it turns out we can't then we'll probably try to adopt.

    I'm okay today, I guess. I cried a lot last night. But I just keep telling myself that it's normal and we'll just try again next month. Today was supposed to be the first day of AF not stopping by, the day that I would probably get a +

  • hmmm...Dats, try not to worry about it.

    If I had a dollar for everytime I thought my period was late and I started worrying I was preggers.

    I say, don't freak out till the peepee stick tells you to.
