Evening!

Re: Evening!

  • I'm considering sending beer that FI brewed...it doesn't get any more local than that.
  • I think she said something about Birdie's aunt (was that her?) among other things.

  • Eagles! I'm glad you're back. I'm kind of sad that you're not a seal though. 

    The pic of Sparent in her sig makes me think of my FSIL - so that's who I picture when she posts. 
  • Poke either is decidedly not Kwills, or Kwills got smart and used her friends pic.
  • I totally forgot that you met her, Chrissy! That was so bizarre, her whole GBCK thing. She was FB friends w/ us for like 4 days and then went nuts. She was a cute little thing too.

    FI has a crazy ex-gf who found me on TK, probably on my local board. It made me paranoid to post anything about my wedding. I even had them put it in my venue contract that if anyone tries to call and cancel it on me, they are to call my cell phone immediately, before doing anything.

  • I don't think I even put up a sigpic until Fishy twisted my arm last fall.
  • Eagles you are my favorite troll by far ;)

  • Muni, I think that's a great idea! Truly doesn't get more local. I'll be going to the brewery that's about 15 minutes from my house. Actually, I'll be going to Winslows that's 3 minutes from my house and getting the beer.

    If anyone IRL found me on here, I wouldn't care. I don't say anything that I would be afraid of someone reading. I've told all of my close friends and family about TK and my friends here, so they know.

    ETA: BUT...I don't have any BSC family or friends who would be weird about it, so there is that, too.

  • Oh, Kalpi.  That was strange.  No one was even mean or anything.  She just got ribbed a bit and then flew off the handle.  
  • MuSu, my official title is "commercial litigator," which is the least useful description out there.  Basically, I handle business v. business disputes, usually contract or quasi-contract stuff.  Occasionally I help businesses sue their own ex-employees, which is all kinds of awesome.  (that's sarc font)

    And Muni, my current favorite suit is my navy blue suit, but red sounds like fun.  I usually go with a serious suit/fun jewelry combo, unless I'm going to appellate court, at which point the fun jewelry gets left home.

  • I was wondering what Eagles looked like for awhile, but now I know because she briefly posted the link to her pinterest account earlier. She is indeed not a seal.

  • Okay, I'm convinced.  If we have any of his nut brown ale left after the wedding, that's what i'll send.  

    I'm pretty psyched to receive beer in the mail.  
  • Angel, say what? That is crazy! She tried messing with your wedding?

    Ahh gotcha. :) I am really interested in family law and a lot of that has litigation components, but I am also rather terrified of speaking in front of a judge. We'll see.

  • Muni - The world may never know *said in tootsi-pop commercial voice*

    Angel - that's seriously sucky. I am so glad I don't have to worry about that!
  • Oh, and I'll probably AW e-pics after I get them on Saturday, so you'll all have a face to put with the s/n soon.

    And really, I don't care if people I know IRL find me here, but this particular branch of the family is a branch we're estranged from, and after I got admitted to practice law and all my ish became public record last year, they called my office a few times trying to get information out of me about my parents.  It was not cool, and I am looking forward to changing my name after the wedding.

  • J thinks I'm absolutely crazy for being on here still, but whatev. As long as I don't talk about TK when he's around, he leaves me alone. He just doesn't get the friends on the internet thing.

    She didn't, but the fact that she found me on here made me worry, because the only way to have found me is to know the SN I use for everything, and I don't know how she would have found that out... the whole thing just made me worry. So to make myself feel better, I had it put in the venue contract.

  • Steph, i'm imagining an otter in a blue suit with awesome jewelry now instead.  I like it, but maybe not as much as the red.  Otter style is just different from people style, you know?

    <div>I interned in a family law clinic during law school, and I really, really liked it.  Talking to judges gets pretty routine after a while, especially if you're practicing in a field like family law that involves a good amount of court time.  You kind of get to know everyone in the courthouse, and then it starts to feel no different than talking to a coworker in the office or something.</div>

  • Steph - I love seeing peoples AW pics. I plan on doing it as soon as I get my pin up girl pics back. 

    MuSu - My FI thinks I'm crazy for being on here at all. He doesn't understand the whole asking strangers for advice thing. But he's kind of clueless about stuff in general.

    [QUOTE]Daff, it sounds like you need a glass of wine and a nice long bubble bath. 
    Posted by ArynBaker[/QUOTE]
    Funny you say that (I haven't read any further). Drinking rum and diets, talking about buying a hot tub (our bathtub is terribly uncomfortable for bubble baths).

    And, having a bit of a meltdown about missing my mom. No one wants to hear about that though.
  • FI doesn't understand me being on here either. He doesn't really care though.

  • I shoud add that we're 90% sure this girl faked a pregnancy in the beginning of my relationship with FI to try to make him come back to her. So I'm justified in being worried about what she's capable of.

  • Musu, I'm always talking to FI about something on TK and he laughs everytime. Then pretends to listen. I'm sure by the time we're actually married he won't pretend to listen anymore. 
  • Eagles is BSC. You can tell, she's an Eagles Fan. Duh, why do I have to point out the obvious, guys?

  • My FI is actually ON TK.  But he hasn't been on much lately.  He was a bit of a reg on one of the boards for a time though.  
  • <3 hugs to you, Daff.


    Steph -- Yeah, I can tell that is kind of how it is once you get used to it, since the attorney that is mentoring me is super good at it and always looks comfortable.
