Confessions

thesuninherhead · December 2009

It's already Friday here, and soon will be yours as well and thus time for FFF, however from memory we are yet to have a confessions thread this week (or, if we did, I missed it). In any case, anything that you wish to confess? Cough it up here.

anna.oskar · December 2009

The only confession I have is that I seriously wish I could just say the hell with it and JOP. Too late now and too much money lost.

tlv204 · December 2009

I think this is more of a whine, but I can't decide if my friends suck or if I'm a bad friend. Oh well. Also, I really really really really really don't want my long term substituting position to end in 2 weeks. I don't want to be a regular sub again

nda_roxybabe · December 2009

tlv- from what I remember its your friends that suck. You most certainly do not.

Nebb · December 2009

I bet if we do FFF this week, its gonna suck. Last week was just too long and nothing has really happened this week.

sucrets4 · December 2009

Now that my field trip performance is over, I'm so done with school. We have 3 more full days I have to figure out exactly what I'm doing to keep them entertained. I guess I'll grade them on something, lol.

I don't think I have anything juicy. I'm still tired from my nap.

tlv204 · December 2009

Thanks

The specific incident that's bothering me at the moment is a little bit of both I think. Another friend of mine who lives out of town had a baby recently, and 2 other friends, who have excluded me several times over the years, went to visit her and the baby shortly after she was born without even asking if I wanted to go with them. I know that's a dumb thing, but since she's out of town I would really like to go with someone else. And now the poor baby is a month old and I still haven't been to visit

And I just feel plain left out, which is stupid I know but never fun.

MandaBelle1211 · December 2009

I am graduating from my Masters program with honors. But, I haven't told anyone yet becuae I want to surprise FI and my parents. Sorry, it's more of an AW, but I needed to tell someone!

tlv204 · December 2009

Sucrets you only have 3 days left? NOT FAIR. We go straight through the 23rd, then start back up Jan. 4. I feel like we used to get a full 2 weeks when I was younger.

tlv204 · December 2009

Congrats bellini!

Nebb · December 2009

Oh I have one. I have a friend who is really struggling with wedding planning, she is WAY over budget and is really unorganized. It makes me feel... "wedding superior" because I had none of those problems. I feel like an ass for thinking that but im pretty sure if she would let me take over her wedding stuff for a week, I could fix it.

thesuninherhead · December 2009

Congrats bellini!

Tlv, you do not suck. Evidently, it's your friends that do.

My confession isn't so much of a confession as something on my mind: I realised a few weeks ago that I've got an enlarged, painless lymph node in my armpit. It's on the same side (my left) as those other lumps in my breast which I had the biopsy on just before the wedding (which came back clear, but at the time I didn't have an enlarged lymph node as well). I wasn't at all worried about those lumps when I went for the biopsy because I just figured that it would all be fine- and it was. I am feeling a little apprehensive about this lymph node being enlarged though, and have convinced myself that the lump/s feel bigger, too, and thanks to google I am now somewhat concerned.

At the same time, I feel very much like a hypochondriac for going back to the doctor three months later despite the negative result on the biopsy.

GO!! better to be safe than sorry.

louisvillebride21 · December 2009

Please go back Sun.

Its always better safe than sorry in cases like that.

nda_roxybabe · December 2009

Tlv, I'm sorry

I would feel crummy and left out too.

TheSun- I wouldn't worry. Just keep an eye on it.

I wish I had some kind of conefession but other than my boss sucking (which I mention daily I got nothing)

mags0607 · December 2009

Sun- go back to the doctor if you are concerned. Better to be labled as a hypochondriac by your doctor than miss somehting big (it probably won't be, but better safe than sorry.)

I still have gift at my house from a wedding I attended in October. I am a horrible friend, but they just moved and I don't have the address and I keep forgetting to ask them. This is so not like me, and I need to get off my arse and get it in the mail ASAP.

louisvillebride21 · December 2009

This isn't so much of a confession...I don't know what it is. FFIL found out about 3 weeks ago that he had a golf ball size brain tumor and it had bled. He just had it taken out on Tuesday (everything went great) and actually went back home today. Since I found out, I've been having AWFUL dreams, often waking up almost screaming and crying. They were usually bad dreams about my dad that passed away 6 years ago. I even had a dream that I ended up paralyzed. I could think and move my eyes, but everything else was immobile. I was convinced that these dreams were an omen that he was going to die

I figured they would go away after the surgery, but they really haven't.

Because of these dreams, I haven't been myself; I've been super sensative, crying, just blah. I didn't want to tell FI what was going on, so I just blamed it on school stress. But nowthat everything's over, I just want them to stop!!

Sorry that was long

julezlee · December 2009

Sun, please go back to the Dr. Don't feel like a hypochondriac.

DH and I both had crap days so we're getting drunk. I've definitely been drinking too often to excess lately. DH is a really funny drunk though.

sarahmk5 · December 2009

FI can't cook for me tonight because he has work to do, so, even though I have chicken in the fridge, I'm practically starving because I'm in desperate need of a grocery run and hate touching raw meet. It's such a stupid little thing, but it makes me feel way too dependent/helpless. (FYI: I can boil water. That's it.)

Well, we're done on the 18th. We have 3 full days of school, and then 3 days of semester tests where we get out 2 hours early and kids only come if they have tests.

amalama · December 2009

I confess that I called my sister to tell her that we were keeping our Christmas GTG with our college friends just girls, and did not really feel bad that she said she probably wouldn't come then. She pretty much admitted that she was going to ask to bring the kids, so I am glad that I don't have to explain to her why I don't like that idea.

mags0607 · December 2009

Louisvillebride- I have had that too, nightmares that immobilize me. It usually happens when I am super stressed out, or something medical is going on with a family member. I have just always chalked it up to stress, and usually a couple weeks after the event or stress lets up, it gets better. I'm sorry its happening to you, I have ended up taking OTC sleep aids, and it puts me in a deep enough sleep that the dreams went away even if for one night.

Brie2010 · December 2009

I confess that I'm annoyed that my shower-throwers can't come up with anything more interesting for my shower than copy my best friend's shower EXACTLY. There are 4325324 venues in our area that would be just fine, and you had to pick the exact same one (that isn't that great to begin with)? I feel like a huge brat for saying this.

I confess that I'm annoyed that there's apparently dramz going on amongst my BMs re: my bachelorette party and one of them tried to get me involved. No. I'm staying out of it.

SwedishChick2011 · December 2009

Sun - Don't feel bad about going back to the doctor. It's probably nothing, but it's better to be on the safe side.

My confession - I'm knotting in class right now. Also, I'm trying to watch what I eat, but I'm starving and really want to go to McDonalds's after class.

julezlee · December 2009

LVB - That sounds awful. I'm so sorry. I'm a huge vivid dreamer too and it's the absolute worst.

louisvillebride21 · December 2009

Yeah, I've been relying on that too. It doesn't totally stop the dreams and I wake up groggy. It's silly, but I'm still worried that because I'm still having them, that something will happen to him

nda_roxybabe · December 2009

I confess that I'm freezing. It's like 40 something here. When I lived in Alaska this would have been light jacket weather not heavy jacket..

missy68 · December 2009

I'm second-guessing everything. I'll be glad to get started next week, but I'm scared, too.

Posted by louisvillebride21[/QUOTE]
I'm sorry you're having these bad dreams. Just remember that dreams are just your mind's way of working through things going on in your life, things that you're worried about, etc. It doesn't mean any of them will actually come true.

louisvillebride21 · December 2009

Logically I know that, but it's hard to convince myself of that in the middle of the night. And it's just worse because I don't feel like I should talk to FI about it.

amblizman · December 2009

Sun- I had a swollen lymph node under my arm a few times. It turned out I was reacting to the antiperspirant I had been using. But given your other medical issues, I would see a doctor, too.

My confession is that I'm a little miffed because my company puts out a weekly newsletter and there's a section for recent weddings, new babies, promotions and whatnot.... and my boss didn't feel the need to submit anything about my wedding. I had wanted to save a copy for my scrapbook.
