Randoms to start conversation

Re: Randoms to start conversation

  • Eh, I'd watch an eagle eat a rat.

    CMC, I haven't been around but I spied Claire on FB and she is beautiful!  I am squeeing over all her pretty girly things.  I'm so glad things are going well for you.

    I gained a few pounds over the holidays, so H and I started a real diet.  I'm in a crappy mood today because of it.  Maybe it's poor planning on my part, but I'm not really hungry, just pissed.

  • Adding to the theme of ex-BFs, I recently learned that my first major high school BF is getting married in June.  Ours was a "first love" relationship, and we broke up junior year of high school, but by senior year we were good friends.  A few years ago, H and I went out for drinks with him and his now-fiancee, and everyone got along well.  He came to my wedding (sans-fiancee, but only because she had another wedding to attend that day), and he said it meant a lot to him to be invited.  We haven't kept in close contact for the last few years, but he sent James a gift when he was born. 

    For some reason, I am doubtful that I'll be invited to his wedding.  If that turns out to be true, I think I'm going to feel slighted.

  • I think that having one kid has made me want two less than I did before which makes no sense because I have a really good kid. He's just soooooo active that the thought of another one makes me want to collapse in a puddle and cry.

    Zane is crazy gung ho about more and would rather have three or four. I don't think I can even really suggest stopping at one. I feel like I'd the *** changing the plan midway through. 

    It will probably change when he gets older. That's what I'm telling myself now.

  • CMC, I love the milk drunk face! I have a random ttc question. I'm planning on going off bcp in a few weeks. Last time around I did this and we used condoms for a cycle. We aren't planning on ttc for a few months but I'm not going to be broken up if I get knocked up earlier. Is there any real problem associated with getting pregnant your first month off the pill? I know there's an issue with determining your actual due date if you don't have the date of your lmp and all that jazz, but that really doesn't bother me that much. I just really want to avoid condoms at all costs for the rest of my life if possible.

  • Claire! Answer the question, Claire.

    Um. This is totally personal and TMI, but I need to share and I got nothing else going on. I had my first g-spot O the other night. I think....I think I'm religious now.

    One ob/gyn mentioned to me that the possibility of twins is slightly higher the first cycle off bcp.

    This is the only thing I know about.  My gyn recommends using condoms a few cycles but he said it's not vital.  It's just to get to know your cycle or something.

  • Okay. I'm kind of meh on getting to know my cycle. I'll let the u/s tech do that for me. The twin thing scares me though.

  • I didn't know about the twins first cycle off the pill. I heard so much conflicting stuff about that.

     

    I would cry if I had twins. Cry.

     

    My poor coworker who miscarried is having tests run and it looks like she has bad eggs. She is being told she is going to have to do IVF with genetic testing to conceive.

  • That's rough Winged:(. I much prefer condoms to twins, so I guess we'll deal.

    Things are really obnoxious around her with the Saints winning their playoff game. If LSU wins tonight, I may have to move.

  • Coley, I have no idea how you're juggling so many things at once, that is CRAZY.

    More random randoms...  So, I've become slightly face/skin obsessed and I want to better manage the hands of time. I went Sephora nuts a few weeks ago and bought what I thought was going to be some pretty great stuff but one of the new products is making me look like the Elephant Man. I have a rash of teenie tiny little bumps all over my face. They don't itch, but it looks pretty gnarly. I don't know if I just need time to adjust to the new wash and moisturizer or if I should just call it quits and return them. I'm also wondering if it's because I've been sweating so much and all my disgusting impurities are coming to the surface to breakdance on my face. 

    Can I hold your baby, cmc?

    I'm still laughing at the Game of Thrones orgasm.

    Pete just asked me to pop the biggest back zit ever. God, I love that he works from home!!

    I don't know if I want them to win so people won't be in shiity shiity moods, or to lose so I don't have to deal with all the gloating.

  • I have a phone interview for a Real Job on Friday afternoon. It's something I could see myself doing long term, takes advantage of both my science and legal education, is extremely stable and conducive to having a family, but the first thing my brain thinks of is "OOH! We could remodel the bathroom!".

    Classes start up again tonight. I don't waaaaanna.

    THe house across the street had one of those inflatable Santas up for Christmas. Now it's just laying in their yard, deflated. Sean is very concerned about Santa's well-being. I wish the guy would put it away, but considering his Christmas light stay up all year long I'm not too hopeful.

    My moms neighbor had 2 inflatables that they just left in the yard and it looked awful.  So on spring break (almost 4 mths past xmas) last year we went over at 2 in the morning and removed them.  It was very satisfying.  They didn't do inflatables this year, so it was a win, win situation.

    Oh no. We threw them over their back fence.  If the suckers wouldn't have been so heavy we may have hauled them off.  That way we would have known for sure they wouldn't be able to do them this year.

    I am dying for a sub.  A really delicious Italian mix with provolone cheese.  Will eating cold cuts really kill my baby?
