  • Sarah, I'll remind you to be nice if you remind me to be nice :)

    Sucrets, I'm sorry you don't like the south! I love the south, but I've heard it's a big adjustment.

    whit - it's just not me, you know?  I just don't fit in and don't belong here, although I might feel different if I taught in the city.

    But NY is my home and I feel like I need to at least be in the north east.

    [QUOTE]Oh, I mentioned this earlier, but I confess I've not only been lurking, but commenting on the Bump's baby name board. FI sort of freaked when he looked at what page I was on. I just love names. Rach - High school is my backup plan after PhD if I can't get a college job. Then I'll be on a good pay scale. Are you considering getting a teaching certificate instead of the PhD? Don't you already have a master's?
    Posted by msmerymac[/QUOTE]

    Yep, I already have a masters---so I'd just need teaching certification (I'd go into social studies), and possibly a few courses.

    Plus---the more I watch shows like Glee, the more I wish high school had been cooler for me. And so I'd like to teach high school. Because of Glee. My thought process makes no sense.

  • Thanks nebb :) And whit that makes me feel better!

    **sigh** I wish I could consider teaching high school my backup job. Middle school was supposed to be my backup, and I can't even get a job there. I'm glad I spent a crapload of time and money to get my masters, clearly it helped.

  • Hell honey, I don't even feel like I belong sometimes! My town is pretty damn redneck, and even though I do hunt and fish with FI, I'm not the girl with the tramp stamp and chew in her mouth wearing a wife beater hanging up deer heads on my wall.

  • I'll join the not having enough sex bench. 

    Also, I really didn't like the gifts DH got me for Xmas.  Usually he does great.  This year, I have him a specific list of clothes that I wanted and he got me totally different things.  I wish he would've understood that I would have been happier with one dress from J Crew rather than a ton of random stuff he picked out at Gap.  Yup, I'm a brat.

    I'm also way too angry and rude lately. 
  • I saw a blog today that confused me. It was a blog or website that was trying to end the word retarded. I can understand not liking the use of the word, but I don't understand how the concept would work. You raise money to end the saying of the word but how to get people to stop saying it? Do you pay them? Or does the money go to the disabled?

    Yea, me too. And doing laundry, and taking down the tree, and showering..I'm ready for vacation again
  • I confess that I'm brattily mad my sister is not getting her hair done with us on the wedding day because she thinks she can find a cheaper salon.  She has plenty of money and is taking three vacations this year, but she's skipping on being with me the morning of the wedding to save $20.  I shouldn't be mad because she's planned an awesome bachelorette party, but I am.

    I confess that I'm also really annoyed that FI's side of the family is not throwing me a shower, even though they threw one for FI's brother's wife when they got married.  They treat FI like a second class citizen in his family and I"m sick of it.

    I confess I"m on my way to being drunk.

  • TJ - We have the candle burning right now!


    I can't think of any confessions ATM, but I'll think on it.

  • Brie - The morning of my MOH's wedding one of her idiotic BMs who had committed to having her hair done instead left to go to Regis at the mall to save like $15.  I had the same thoughts about her you're having about your sister.  I think a little bit of money is totally worth it for that bonding time.
  • I also confess that I'm really resentful my mom never dated after my dad died.  She made me and my sister her whole life, which is great, but now that we're adults she's still clinging to us and I wish she'd find other meaningful adult companionship.

  • Another confession that im not proud of, im getting sick that my weight loss is going so god damn slow. Yes I should be glad ive lost what I have, Yes I should do it the healthy way, but im sick of waiting. At the very begining of working out I was taking some pills - firedrin - recomended to me by a friend who lost a ton of weight, and they worked but I got a weird allergic reaction after being on them for a month or so and I went off. I still have some left sitting in the bottle and ive been toying with the idea of going back on them because im sick of being patient.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Fess up. : I'm in the same boat.  I'm so mean to him sometimes and always feel horrible afterwards.  I know I don't tell him I appreciate him enough and have to do it more.
    Posted by sarahmk5[/QUOTE]

    Sarah and Whit, can I sit in that boat too?  I can be so unappreciative towards my FI and about nice things that he does.

    Confession 2 - I just started taking Wellbutrin and I'm afraid it's not going to help the fuucked up chemicals in my brain.
  • I confess that my FI says i have ' Only child syndrome'. code for im being selfish or spoiled.

    i confess that I started crying while driving to walmart today because I have 7 weeks left before the wedding and im stressed out

    I confess that It doesn't take much for me to loose my temper.


    wow i just confessed to people ive never talked to!!

  • I'm glad I'm not crazy, julez.

    The thing is, where we're getting married, it's basically Super Cuts or fairly expensive salons.  There's no middle ground.  If there was, I'd find it, but there wasn't.  It's annoying.

  • I confess that I also lurk the bump and post on the baby name board.  I don't even have a ring yet.  I just love baby names.

    I confess that I get frustrated with my boyfriend because he doesn't seem as anxious to get married as I do.  He says its because he wants to get me a nice ring, so he's saving money.  I get that.  I'm just impatient I guess.
    Anniversary
  • I also confess that I'm super disappointed in how selfish my SIL (bro's wife) is.  I've been holding off posting because I didn't know if she would see it on my computer.  I have details and will post later, but I seriously think less of her.

    Cliff's:  her parents died this summer and she's blowing her inheritance on crap (3 rings, netbook, etc.) instead of putting it towards her family. 

    She's a SAHM and my brother works his A$$ off and I heard him say to her "every cent I own goes towards feeding our 3 kids and paying for college, and all of your money is for fun."  It made me really angry towards her, and I do generally like her.

  • Climb in Teresa. :)

    Resist Nebb! I will ask you about it every day and you won't be able to lie to me because I can tell these things.

    Misspx, I have 10 weeks until the wedding. I'm not stressed yet, but I'm worried it's going to get that way. I still have lots of things to buy and not lots of money.

  • Im trying to resist whit, im trying, its hard though. Im sick of being fat, I know im doing well and im not THAT fat, but im still sick of it.
  • So there was this one slot machine in Las Vegas that I love, called Kitty Glitter.  For the holidays, H found a picture of the logo online and had a t-shirt printed for me - which was very sweet, but I confess that I just don't think I'll ever wear it.  He was so excited to give it to me and I feel bad.
  • I confess that lately I've felt like I'm missing out on my prime "single" years.  Don't get me wrong, I love FI, and I want to marry him, but at 23, I feel like I should be going out and partying with my friends, not sitting at home on NYE and weekend nights.  Granted, we have no friends here to go out with, so it's not like I have a ton of choice.  Also, FI doesn't drink at all, so sometimes I resent that.  I'm totally jealous of my single or dating friends that go out and party and have fun all the time.
  • Oh whit, did i tell you I got under the dome for christmas?! Im reading it now and I cant put it down. I think it looks silly on my desk though without the cover on, it looks like Im reading a gigantic bible.
  • JK, I feel that way sometimes too. My friend that lives in Nashville texted me last night, drunk, to tell me that she happened to be at a bar and Rodney Atkins made an appearance and started singing. I admit to being jealous that she was living it up in Nashville while we were pretty boring.

    Nebb, chunk them in the trash? They're so not worth your health hon. My brother did diet pills for a while (not because he was fat but the dumbass liked the high) and he had a seizure and collapsed.

    Would he be offended if you wore it for relaxing or sleeping?

  • Nebb - FWIW, when I moved to DC to be back with FI (we were LD for a year and half after I graduated and he was still in school), i took a job that pays lower than my previous job in Ohio because I had already submitted my resignation in Ohio and was terrified I wouldn't get any other offers if I didn't accept this one.   I regret doing this now...and I'm somewhat resentful to FI that I had to be the one move (even though I hated Ohio anyway...go figure?)  i'm also resentful that it cost me over $1,000 to make the move and FI didn't offer to help me pay for it, even though I know that it was my responsibility since I was the one moving.

    OH GOOD LORD I'll jump in that wagon. My mom did date occasionally, but always white trash dirt bags for about 3 weeks at a time, and somehow the more independent I become the more dependent she becomes. I just wish she would be my mom and act like a grown up every now and then so I wouldn't have to.

    I confess that I'm sad for all of you with your lack of sex. H and I have always had a good sex life, but I need more variety than H does. Communication on this brought our sex out of the purely vanilla and I am super-happy for it. 

     

    That's the sauciest confession I could find!
