Ways to tell you've been Nesting too long

Last night we pulled up behind a car at a red light, and the license plate said "Tarpon." My first thought was not "fish," but "Monoxide."

    Haha!

  • lol. I'm sure I would have done the same.

  • Yep.

     

    I told someone a few days ago they had a first-world problem and their diamond shoes were too tight.  They didn't get it.  Either it's mostly a nest thing, or they are dumb.

    Look with your special eyes.
  • LOL!

  • LOL

    While H and I were on vacation last year, we met this other couple from FL who invited us to go tarpon fishing with them if we're ever in their area. I immediately thought of Tarpon Monoxide!

  • LOL! That would have been my first thought too.

  • I think the "my diamond shoes are too tight" is originally from a line on Friends.

    There are those on these boards who remember me posting after losing my virginity.

    I actually think I remember back to when you were still a virgin.

    Oh, wow. I think I keep in contact with maybe 3 people who have known me that long. (not counting family, of course.) lol.

  • I was also a creeper lurker for a looooooong time before I posted on WW (where I first met Kuus) and then lurked on TIP while I was a WW reg for awhile.

  • I don't think I was particularly early. It was high school. I just don't talk to people I went to high school with, excepting 3.

    What's the story here?? Kuus you were engaged before Mr. Kuus??

    Were you engaged to Mr. Kuus more than once? I used to lurk off and on in college when I was an engaged beebee. It took years upon years to work up the nerve to post and even then I never could do it on WW (I lurked when it was RE).  

  • I think WW is the board that flamed me when I was engaged to ex-FI and I came on there complaining about his mother.
  • I know ive been here too long because my H calls people twaffles..

    Yep.  Two engagements, same guy.  First engagement was in college; he was only 21 when he proposed.  I was the beebee-est of beebee brides on the Knot back then.

    And I think the loss of virginity was pre-Nest, on the Knot Relationships board.  So there  :P

    I may or may not have once, in the course of conversation, said "carbon monoxide" to my H but put the emphasis on the wrong syllable (carBON monoxide).

Yo Ass don't git a medal fo' marryin yo' prom date. Unless yo ass is imoan. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Then yo ass git a all-expenses paid cruise ta tha Mediterranean n' yo ass git ta hook up Jared Padalecki on tha flight over while bustin yo' jammies. But still no medal.
  • I lurked on TIP back in '04, '05', and '06, in the old formatting days. I don't remember specific stories or posters, but I have been around a while. I had a different screen name then, and when I went on mat leave in 2010 and came back to TN (since I needed better things to do that watch all six seasons of Grey's Anatomy while Newborn Malibu slept all day), I had no idea what that SN was. Had to make a new one.

    I wasn't a crazy though, I can promise you that. I doubt I actually ever posted anything then.

    Oh, FFS.
