[QUOTE]Also, an irritation of mine. I know they aren't popular everywhere, but since I'm from Ontario a lot of my friends have Jack and Jills for their weddings (they have their wedding party throw them a big party, invite all their friends and make a bunch of $$ to pay for the wedding, if you aren't familiar). I hate hate hate the idea of this. My irritation with them is that friends on facebook keep inviting me to them. They send out mass invitations obviously, but really? I live across the country and you expect me to come back and help pay for a wedding I'm not invited to? I know they probably don't think I'll make it, but the last one I actually was sent a message on FB saying they were sorry I couldn't make it. Um, you didn't care enough about me to invite me to the wedding, I'm sure I won't be missed. Maybe I'm just nuts. But I hate the idea of Jack and Jills, and I get really annoyed when I get invites to them. Via facebook.

WORD. UP. This week I managed to avoid another panic attack (had one last week), but I did break down in spin class last night and teared up a bit. I turned emotion into energy and worked harder.

On a lighter note, I am so excited for our trip to Bisbee this weekend! I'm going to work on my photography as well as my mini business plan, goals, and design ideas. I'm hoping to launch it in April. (wink at Tarra!)

When you get super emotional do you ever have an irrational fear that you could be pregnant? I do.

Confession: I try really hard to make friends. I go out of my way for people. I talk about things that I think they're interested in, and I still get blown off. I've tried not trying too. Haha. I'm just bummed. It was so easy for me to make friends in high school. Now, I have none. Well, I take that back. I'm friends with FI's friends. The guys love me. His best friend came over earlier in the week and told me how happy he was that I was with FI because I was just like one of the guys. Ugh. Don't get me wrong. I'm glad they like me, but I want female friends. I just don't know how to make them.

melmac86 · February 2012

Confession: I feel so stressed out, crabby, and anxious about finding a new apartment for BF and I to move to even though I realize 73 days is more than enough time to figure it out (moving cause current apartment is not worth what we're paying for and we'd like more space).

Random: yesterday I got my first letter from the little guy that I sponsor in Africa. His mom actually wrote it with the help of an interpreter since he's only 4.

Here's his pic:

Can't tell you any identifying info for privacy reasons, but we're allowed to share the pictures. He's sponsored through World Vision for $35/month. 85% of the money goes directly to his family and sometimes to the village if they need medicine or other supplies. The other 15% goes to fundraising, volunteers, etc... My biggest hope is to meet him some day, as the organization allows this and assists in arranging the visit. The second I saw his sad little face, there was no turning back.

I think this is the wrong way to go about it too. I don't see the engagement period as a time to prep yourself or try to convince yourself that you should get married.

When I first started taking vitamins, I didn't realize you had to eat with them and I kept throwing up for like 3 days in a row and really got freaked out, lol.

Nowadays, if I think there's a chance, I go take a test and THEN tell Fi, because he reacts a lot more than I do, lol. I don't ever have a period thanks to my BC, so I have to take a test instead of just waiting for a period to come.

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: Friday Randoms : I took 3 pregnancy tests over the last year (I wasn't on BC) and I realized it was better to wait until after I did it to tell FI. I usually wasn't freaking out or anything, I just wanted to make sure my period was late because my body sucks, not because I was growing a second one. I knew if I told FI he'd overreact and overthink EVERYTHING. Going back on the pill was a really really smart thing for me to do. :)
Posted by yaga13[/QUOTE]

I don't think FI would even have sex with me if he were told that I wasn't on BC, even with condoms, lol. He doesn't want a kid until he's ready and I have a feeling it is going to take him a while. He's terrified of the idea right now. He's afraid that he'll be a bad dad because of his parents' experiences with him and he's afraid we'll go into massive debt, lol.

So yeah, better to make sure and then maybe tell him, lol.

[QUOTE]Oh I totally have something I have to flame myself for. I got my hair trimmed/colored on Wednesday, to keep it the same style and color. I told him no length off the bottom, just clean up the layers, and get the bangs back to normal length (LOVE my bangs but the maintenance is like whoa). Anyway, I was chatting with my hairdresser and wasn't really paying attention to what he was doing. I got home and I was like, "hmmm, I think he took some length off." And then I was like, "ARG, WHY DID HE STEAL MY HAIR?!?!?!?" And I flipped out a little. Like, it is so no big deal and I don't know why I flipped out. I even sent Bri a picture and asked her to evaluate me. She (lovingly) told me I was nuts. Which I am. But I definitely lost a good inch plus, which I can tell because I put my hair up in my normal ponytail and it doesn't hit the same place on my back in a tank top. It really doesn't matter one bit but I'm still a little peeved. I didn't think I was possessive of my hair at all but I guess I am. Maybe just because it grows really slowly and it has taken me forever to get to this length.
Posted by LivLeighton[/QUOTE]

I'd feel that way too. I'm afraid to get my hair cut because they always take off too much. Mine takes forever to grow out too, so yeah, I'd be a bit upset too.

See my BF is the opposite. He is dying to have kids like, now. He knows I am not okay with having kids before marriage. Sometimes I do think about it though. I would like to have children, and somewhat soon, but then I see a cranky kid and my mind changes haha.

cu97tiger · February 2012

I flame myself for somehow forgetting to take one of my BC. Not in a 'oh, i noticed the next day and doubled up' but as in 'FI found it on the floor of our closet.' Meaning I put it in my pocket to take later and forgot, took my pants off that night, and it fell on the floor.

I assumed it was recent, so I took it that day. The next day, I started spotting. Yesterday, I forgot to take my pill so I doubled up again today. Uncharacteristically, FI and I have had sexytimes twice this week. I DO want a baby but now would be not-so-great timing and I think FI would be mad at me. Not to mention I'd be dealing w/ morning sickness at our wedding. Please don't let me be pregnant.

Swazzle · February 2012

The thought of getting pregnant now makes me sick to my stomach. It wasn't until very recently that I even thought I might want kids so when I have those scary moments like "OMG did my BCP fail me?!" I literally have a panic attack. I think we can't afford a baby. I'm going to have to turn my walk in closet into a nursery. I'm going to get fat. I'm going to have a child at my wedding. What if I accidentally kill it after it comes out. I just really don't think I'm going to make a good mom, I'm too selfish

I agree with all of this. I think the relation of age/time together is important. Like if you are 30 and get engaged after one year, I probably wouldn't think anything of it, but if you are 20 and get engaged after a year, I'd side-eye that.

And yes, being engaged is the time to plan/save for a wedding. It's not a trial marriage period to see if you are ready.

Holy crap that is fast! BF didn't even say "I love you" until we had been dating for 6 months. I have to admit sometimes I get frustrated that we have seen so many couples get together and get married in the 3 years we've been dating. Sometimes I don't like being responsible.

I think that's pretty reasonable. My friends started getting married around 28 (one was just a few months shy of 28). The first one I thought was a little soon, but I can't remember the timeline anymore. I think they got engaged after a year. The other two were with their husbands for years and years (since college).

I had a coworker like your FSIL. I didn't understand her logic either.

I hate this week. Actually, I hate everything from Feb. 7th till now. I'll let you know when it's over.

Aww Bri I hate that you hate this month. Well I just hate in general that you're having a rough time. You got access to a punching bag? I find it help to beat the living crap out of something. Wearing pink boxing gloves also makes it so much better!

So I confess I've been eating potatoes like they are going out of style I am giving them up for lent, so I am getting my fill before Lent starts.

I defintely don't want kids before marriage. I've been on BCP for 14 years now with no pregnancy scares or anything. There are times when I've forgotten to take a pill on time or what not I always let bf know in case he doesn't want to have sex or use back up. If it happened it wouldn't be a huge deal. There are times when the clock feels like it's ticking and I get baby fever and other times I am just enjoying the now. Especially enjoying the now, since this morning my co-worker was complaining about the cost of summer camp for her son, while she is at work.

That I don't look forward to.

My confession is FI and I are doing some serious planning. We have been considering a synagogue ceremony and a BBQ at a local park probably in early September. We have been looking at caterers and so far, our favorite so far is a local deli that does their cooking on-site AND they can do a pig roast. Epic. Win. But we have to discuss it with my grandparents because they are helping out, money-wise. My second confession is, I hate discussing money, even though my grandparents and FI's parents have agreed to help pay. I don't want to bring it up but we can't do anything until we bring it up. It's just so uncomfortable. F*ck. My third confession is I am seriously obsessed with "Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives."
