    Ash, did you ever AW your house?

    Nope, but I am planning on it after exams are over and I've finally unpacked.  There's still shiit EVERYWHERE.

  • Lately, I've been kind of lazy when reading TK. So if you think I'm ignoring you (any of you), it's not intentional.  I do more skimming then reading lately.

    I remember when I first starting posting on SB and I was so worried I was going to miss out on something. I felt like I had to read all of the big threads and stuff. oy.

    I love houses. I can't WAIT to move into one. Haha.

    Sesh, that is schaudenfreude at its finest!

    Mara, I'm sorry.

    I do think that there are people who ignore me totally.  It's kind of amusing.  I don't know if I'm being self centered, but there is one person who I think has never once responded to my posts.  I don't particularly giveashit.

     I <3 you Steph.  Seriously.

     You wanted the drama so spill it! Stick out tongue

    Chelsea.  I'm pretty certain she doesn't like me.  Which is cool.  I've never particularly interacted with her, so I have no basis for this other than that I don't think she ever responds directly to me.  I don't really respond to her, either, though.

  • 1. Biggest fight you've gotten in with a family member? friend? what was it about?:

     Hmm. My best friend Dan and I have gotten into so many pointless fights, it is kind of hilarious. There was a time where names were called, I cried (a lot), he said we couldn't be friends anymore, and then like 2 hours later he texted me and said "Ok I'm over it. This was dumb." ... I have no idea what it was about though. 

     

    OH and I also got really pissed when a friend of mine hacked into all of my internet accounts and read through my ***. 

    2. Lamest argument you've had with the FI/H/SO/ex/whatever? Who started it? (Be honest.)

    Lamest hahah geez. Probably about where my debit card was. He was so mad. He started it since he was mad that I wasn't as worried about its location as he was. I threw something at some point (not at him) because of how angry we got, lol. 

    3. Best work gossip/stories?

     Oh man. I don't work right now but I know I had some at some point. Don't know any at the second though. 

    4. Any secrets you're just DYING to tell someone, but you can't IRL? :

     

    Eh, no.

  • I love reading. My goal is 52 books in 52 weeks and I just saw Any's number. 52 seems shameful now! :-)

    That was SO tiring.  i'm so glad I got over it  Yes

  • imageSteph0871:

    Any is a reading freak of nature.

    That, and she was unemployed for 2/3rds of the year. SHE CHEATED. damn immigrants.

     

    * Disclaimer: I am totally kidding.  But not about the cheating part. it's an unfair advantage. 

     

    Yes, the unemployment helped =P I did still only read casually though, I spent most of that time playing WoW. 

  • I have some drama that isn't a fight or anything.

    So, my old BFF professed his love to me a few months ago. We had been best friends after I left exFI but before A but I didn't think it was anything to really be worried about. He was married, with kids, and I wasn't looking to be the other woman.

    After A and I had been together about a month, maybe two, old BFF was walking me to my car, and basically professed his undying love for me. He said that 'WHEN I'm single, I'm coming after you, and I'm not going to leave you alone. I love you and we're perfect for each other.'

    0.o I completely flipped out, got all weird and have spoken to him once since then. I honestly don't know how to handle that situation other than cutting him off completely. It makes me a little sick, because he really was my best friend, and I lost him. It makes me sad.

    You think she doesn't like you because she doesn't respond to you?  No particular incident?

    Well, this is sorta drama.  I'm really annoyed with a girl on another board.  She is applying for a teaching job and is answering a bunch of general questions for her application.  A lot of the questions are hypothetical "WWYD" and she's asking everyone what their answers to them would be.  She didn't even try to answer the questions herself without help.  Not only are they answering them for her, she's taking them and using them to help her own answers.  I'm sorry, but as a teacher, you won't have other teachers around at all hours of the day.  You need to know how you would handle these things on your own because 99% of the time, you won't have the opportunity to ask for advice on how to handle something.

    What board is it? Have you responded to her and said as much?

  • Aw CCF that is really weird/awkward that he did that, and sad too. Is he still with his wife?

  • I'm a lazy knottie now. I generaly only have a few seconds to skim a thread in between sites at work so I'm sure I miss a ton. I don't ignore people, I just miss stuff.

    Or, I'm too lazy to respond to everything so I only comment on the things I can remember by the time I'm done reading the thread. Usually, there is no rhyme of reason to what I remember.

  • I wonder what he thought the result of that would be, CCF.  Did he think it was going to be all Nicholas Sparks?  You would fall weeping into his arms and profess your love?  That would make me question the relationship altogether.

     I DO have something juicy that I hadn't thought about.  A friend that I haven't talked to in years sent me some dirty texts once he found out about J & I.  That came out of NOWHERE.  It was weird.  And funny.

  • I actually do have some random work gossip.

     

    A lady I teach with wears those velour sweat pants every day. Apparently because she isn't wearing jeans, she thinks they are professional. They are terrible. She wore a pair of maroon ones today with a black short sleeved shirt. The shirt rode up so I saw her stomach all of recess. 

     

    Im not sure how nothing is said to her.

    Yes! Like, I'm not surprised, they have 3 kids together. But if he had left, I wouldn't feel so icky about it. Does that make sense?

  • oh, that's weird CCF.  My hs ex did that after I got engaged.  Like, legit "I will leave my girlfriend for you."  Well I admit it was a nice ego-boost, I haven't been able to talk to him since that.

     That was my goal too. I was at 33 at the end of June/beginning of July. I am still at 33 now. I just up and stopped reading then. Thinking back on the circumstances it's no surprise, but it kind of bums me out I that I didn't get closer to any my goal since it wasn't that hard.

    I don't know. TBH, I was starting to have feelings for him, but I think it was because he treated me really well, and I wasn't used to it. ExFI treated me like absolute crap and a guy was finally treating me right. So, I developed feelings. But, I realized that and had started to take a step back.

    And then A and I happened, and obviously that was it for me. I wasn't going to leave A to be his mistress. Haha. A's freaking incredible.

  • I'm not going to quote you CCF because omg TN quoting drives me crazy --- but yes that makes sense. It would have felt less weird if he had actually left her. Poor woman, not knowing about it. I guess you could hope he realized what a mistake he made (not that YOU would be a mistake but you know what I mean!) and is trying hard to move past it... or something?

     

    I found out that my uncle has had 3 wives and my cousins (his kids) don't know.

    Seriously! Like, we still work together, and I did message him on FB to find out how much his side business would charge to serve ExFi with some papers (if I needed it), but that's pretty much the extent of our conversations.

    Oh man.  Now I feel like a ***! Have I ever directly ignored a question you've asked?  I'm really sorry if I have.  I am more on the "we just haven't interacted train".  I'm sorry if you feel like I ignore you, but I definitely don't dislike you! I promise :)

    I HAVE A COWORKER THAT WEARS THOSE TOO! She has one purple velour suit and I have to completely avoid her whenever she wears it.  It's just too much to handle.  She's also the one who, while wearing that, commented on my fuzzy moccasins. (That I just wear to and from the car in the winter, 'cause they're super warm.)  I believe she said "ohhhh, nice slippers, Stephhaaanie." My thought was "yup! They'd go well with your pajamas, eh?"  But I walked away instead. 

  • Wow MuSu. I couldn't imagine not telling your kids that.

    A's been married twice. They were both because they had gotten pregnant. I've already told him, I'm not getting married if we were happen to get pregnant. I want to get married because I want to be married. Not because 'it's the right thing to do.'

    My month board.  I want to, but I don't want to fly in there all high and mighty and "OMG YOU FAIL AS A TEACHER" because I don't think that at all.  But I'm afraid if I say how I feel about it, I will make her feel like *** and I don't want to do that..

    Dude, really, no big deal.  I don't think you've ever directly ignored me.  I just figured if we were going to click, we would've interacted before now.  That's all!
