I am guilt of belly touching, but my own friends ONLY, and I touch those fools all the time anyway. It's really hard for me not to touch my family/friends when i'm speaking to them, like usually on the arm or hands.

[QUOTE]Brandi, I don't follow it much either, but I do like to hear the Phillies won and stuff. I'm more of an Eagles fan, though, football is my sport. Posted by angelstar975[/QUOTE]

I am also a bigger football fan, but my team is the Raiders. I have no idea why. I guess I've just liked them for a long time.

Blueyed228 · May 2012

Sometimes I feel bad that im not a sports fan since we have really good sports teams here. But the only games ill watch are hockey, and those get old too.

Guys. I don't mean to bring up the whole education debate again. But I can't get over this. I'm so pissed off right now. I'm having a 'discussion' on fb about education/taxes/unions/whatever. Someone just said "A college decree is useful to signal to employers that degree holders are on average smarter than non degree holders. And they are."

So, you know. No college degree? you're stupid. sorry!

My father in law told me he couldn't wait to touch "the buddah". Fvck no. I made sure to squash that right there. No one is touching my stomach unless it's H or my doctor.

My belly gets rubbed all the effing time. I mean, I don't care that much if someone reaches out and pats it once or something, but I've actually had people stand there and continually pat it or rub it while they talk to me. It's all very strange.

I also got told I was huge today, "way too huge for only 6 months!"

The FAFSA arguement is complete crap. I make too much money (which is laughable) to get any federal aid and if it weren't for my scholarship I would be drowning in student loans.

What was the best thing that happened to you this weekend? FI and I got good drunk off mint juleps at home. It's nice when we drink at home because then we don't have to worry about someone driving and we can both get drunk. It was fun!

What do you consider to the most valuable thing you own: when you were a child/teenager/now?
Child--My clothie..it was a gross split up cloth that I used to play with even when I was older and not spitting up
Teen--My Kitty. Stuffed animal.
Now--Kitty. Yup, never really got over the stuffed animal thing. Still sleep with him everynight. And my E-ring.

If you could live anywhere, where would it be? Why?
Ann Arbor, MI. FI and I both have college ties to the area. It is gorgeous, fun and close enough to our family but far enough that they can't bug us all the time.

If you were given 24 hrs to live, what would you do?
Eat a lot. Go to my cottage and hang out with my family and FI. Get laid.

Tell something that nobody in the group knows about you. I
I was on the school football team in 7th grade. Yeah the one with the boys. I hated being a girl. I quit after 3 days not because I didn't want to do it or I couldn't but because my father pulled me aside and told me that if I didn't quit I was going to kill my mother..which was true. She cried pretty much for 3 days straight.

What CD is in your CD player right now?
A mix of alternative rock songs from last year.

This is just so wrong it is not even funny. I worked at a college for 10+ years, and very few schools meet 100% of need, and even those that say they do don't really. There is a gap for most kids. I had many students scrarmbling trying to find non-parental co-signers form private loans to stay in school.

september's bride · May 2012

Kate, it totally makes me feel bad. I look at myself and wonder what everyone else is seeing that I'm not. I feel like a big hippo and hate the thoughts of what I'll look like in August when the baby's ready to be born. Yikes.

Shiit. I was one of them! My dad made enough money that the government decided I could afford school. Except, uh, I was paying for my school. So, thanks?

Quick interruption - somehow the Internet windows on my computer got smaller. How do I enlarge the screen again? I think H touched buttons.

RailWayWife · May 2012

What was the best thing that happened to you this weekend? FI and I went to Vegas

What do you consider to the most valuable thing you own: when you were a child/teenager/now? My photo albums

If you could live anywhere, where would it be? Why? I love where Fi & I live now. Our home is beautiful & everything we could ask for.

If you were given 24 hrs to live, what would you do? Tell my Family I love them & make sure they know how amazing they are.

Tell something that nobody in the group knows about you. I think everyone I work with are arrogant jerks, I have worked here for almost 2 years now and they know little about me because all they do is talk about themselves all day long & never ask about ANYONE else. I hate them.

What CD is in your CD player right now? My Ipod is usually on ACDC

Like the text is smaller? Or you just need to maximize the actual window? Click the middle button on the top right of the window (looks like two squares)

If it is the text inside the window, on the bottom right there should be a maginifying glass with a percentage, it should be at 100. This can also be done by holding down CTRL and using the rolling part on your mouse. If it is just the window itself there should be the button on the top right in the center.

I thought so? But I didn't want to assume anything ;)

If it's a laptop, it might get bumped too. That happens to mine all the time when I accidentially 'pinch' my fingers together on the keypad thing.

I had to turn that feature off on my laptop. I was constantly zooming in or out when I didn't want to.

Have you read Salt's blog during her pregnancy. I read through it shortly after I found out I was KU and some of the things she posted that people said to her were crazy. I keep thinking that as I get bigger and more annoyed with things I'll have to reference her blog to get some good responses :)
