I have nothing to say.

Anyone else have anything? Hmm?

Re: I have nothing to say.

  • My Baton Rouge best friend got engaged this weekend.  I'm super happy for her.  And even more so that she's not having bridesmaids!

    Hi.

    Hi.

     

    I thought of something! I liked last night's Smash.

    Yum. Welcome.

  • I'm resisting the urge to eat this entire box of thin mints in front of me.  Possibly with a tagalong chaser.  Between girl scout cookies and reese's peanut butter eggs this is a difficult* time of year for me

  • I can't stop eating string cheese.

    And I'm hormonal and self-conscious because not one person said anything about my OOTD and I even made sure to comment on everyone's. Blah.

  • I'm here and ridiculously pissed off. I may not contribute much since I think if I start my rant, I won't stop. Needless to say, one of the many, many things I am mad about having to do with my job is- we get paid on the 20th. I assumed since the 20th was on a holiday, we would get paid earlier (we normally have it go through the 19th, but the 19th was also a Sunday) I expected my pay on Saturday. Nope, we got it today. And it's not a huge deal but it would have been nice to be notified beforehand.

    If it makes you feel any better I almost never open the OOTD posts because I'm never posting an OOTD. Uness nothing else is going on or it's 1a and see the first part of this sentence. But I'll go look to see how cute you are.

  • Moo I take your self consciousness and add the new poster self consciousness, and I really have to force myself to post. Basically I feel your pain. And if it helps any I covet your figure,you can pretty much pull off anything and look good.

    My baby didn't poo for 8 days he rectified that on Sunday. I am only glad my husband was holding him at the time.

    I am beyond excited for my holiday in 2 weeks. Going to south Africa to see my family. Yay.

    I think I dress juvenile for my age. Oh well. 

  • I'm bored. And boring. And blah. And biitchy. And alliterative.

    I ordered 4 boxes. I think Tagalongs are Peanut Butter Patties here and that's what my 2 boxes are. B's are the Thin Mints. I do not look forward to my ridiculously cheery Jenny Craig counselor asking me about my challenges for the next few weeks. Easter candy, man. It's too much for me. Cadbury Mini Eggs. Peeps. More mini eggs and peeps.

  • I just ate half of a cake by myself. I'm feeling positively gluttonous.

  • Peony, I would be pissed about that.  We got paid on Friday since yesterday was a bank holiday (I also get paid on the 20th).  We also get paid early if the 20th is on a weekend.

  • Aw, thanks guys. It just made me blah. I feel lame even bringing it up.

    Redarmadillo, you should post! I'll comment. I promise.

    I gave up candy and sugar for Lent once and it was SO HARD because I had these Girl Scout cookies and Easter candy and I had to wait and it sucked.

    In non-emo news, apparently I have a $250 credit at my old dentist so they're sending me a check. Woo, found money!

  • Fallin, not to ask to personal a question. But how are you filling your days now ( I think you are still not working no?) I am on maternity leave and I find the lack of work/ structure downright unmotivating. Just wondering how others fill their days.
  • I don't get OOTD at all.

    Unmotivating in what way?  I watch a lot of tv and I read.

    Dit-toe. We always get paid early on these occasions. I'd be all like, give me my monies!!

  • I still want a king cake.

    And Kristen, I'd had Nutella before in street crepes, but never just in my house to eat whenever. About a year or so ago I bought some and never ate it. I told B to eat it the other day and let's just say it had gone bad. He freaked out and said he doesn't know anyone who doesn't check the dates on food. So I threw it out and bought another. I opened it tonight and have been eating it off a spoon, and dipping pieces of E's cereal in it.

    I dont get it because I don't know how to take attractive photos of myself nor do I wear anything on the daily that warrants photos.

    When I get my blue hair it might be a different story.

  • I don't know, I guess I  just feel unmotivated to go out and do stuff. I used to be more productive while being productive, the more I did the more I wanted to do. Now the reverse is true. I am brimful of tv.  I have been very grateful for all the book recs on here though.

    I've always been mostly a homebody so that really hasn't changed for me.

  • I'm an AW who has a body I've been working hard on and a lot of new clothes. OOTD is right up my alley. I've always been into clothes anyway. I won't say fashion as Banana and ATL and Target hardly qualify as fashion and that's where I get most of my wardrobe.

  • Ego stroke, and I spend most of my day alone in the office and miss the boost of working with a group of women who would always compliment each others' outfits. It also pushes me to try to put together new outfits and use what I have instead of wearing the same things every day, which is a pattern I'd fallen into due to the aforementioned lonely office.

    You and I can sit on the couch and read or watch TV all day! Yay!

    Yeah, usually we get paid earlier. This is the first time it has been late and there was no forewarning, no explanation or apology afterwards. The whole reason I like getting paid on specific dates is so I can set my bill pay automatically. Not cool work, not cool.

    Not to mention that my usual work week is M-F and all of a sudden, before my boss left today she wrote on her dry erase board  "Check online for schedule changes" and then bounced. I checked online, she now has us off Thursdays and working Saturdays. No explanation, no heads up. Just a note on her fricking dry erase board. How professional. What a pvssy.

    Needless to say, I will be looking for a new job.

  • My thing is I think I'm fashionable when I bother but then I see people go apeshiit for stuff like the Jason Wu for Target dress that to me, looked like a dressed up hospital gown. Then I think I must be clueless or something.

    When I find something I like, i tend to just buy it in whatever other colors it comes in. So I would just look like a cartoon character in the same thing every day just in different colors. Not worth the trouble.

  • Word. I didn't get the Jason Wu love. At all.

    I joke with the really pretty, stylish girls at work by describing the way I dress as "tween girl".

  • Nope.  Nothing with me since you suggested that ball tent for M's little one. She now has another one (baby boy, not another tent) and it's still holding strong.  And I get a catalog from them every two days

     

    thanks

  • I just don't care what people are wearing unless it's truly horrifying like the law clerk who wore the terrycloth minidress cut in a v-neck down to her bra.  But the ego stroking is at least one long post a day so that's good on this slow board.
