I hate thank you notes....yep, hate them. After every occasion with gifts in my life and now in my DD's - I wait a week or two to try and get caught up in life, then my mom leaves a box of thank you notes to fill out (no list anymore thank goodness). I usually get it done within the month - but I loathe it even though it may take like 30-40 min while vegging out.

Also, SO wise - I am really kind of hot/cold when it comes to online dating and contacting people. Granted I am new at it and just looking to see what is out there - but say at night I will send/respond to something and be excited, the next day not care that I contacted/replied really, and then get really excited again when I do hear a response from the guy the next day or so. I guess my life is just really busy during the day, then it just kind of shuts down to me at night so I look for that outlet then?

Oh, and I swear I have heard a cat meow randomly this week. I have no cat

I think about XH's face every time we do an attack round in boxing. I have no hatred for him, but it gives me the push I need to do all out. I was thinking about talking to my therapist about this, but I'd rather have a good work out. Other women tell me they envision beating up a cake or something, so I'm letting myself have this.

Totally get this, even though I am working through/letting the true anger go - there are still times on my own when I want to be immature and call names/think petty thoughts. Maybe that part just doesn't go away for a bit.

I went to go see What to Expect When You're Expecting last night. I started crying in the middle of the movie because it was all about marriage and having babies. I want that. And yes, I know it will come, but it still made me sad.

That's the thing, I have no anger. I try to make myself angry so I can work hard at punching the bag. It's getting more difficult to do though which is good, but bad for my stamina. I need to find another driving force behind these punches!

Jealous that your anger is gone - yes I know all of us are different here but how long have things been over?

Maybe you can focus on the little itty bitty annoying gym girls for your energy? Oh - or itty bitty annoying brides that have no idea what they are about to get into, lol.

I've been talking to my ex-boyfriend

[doriswe]

My older brother is a selfish sonofabitch! We're heading to Chicago next week to see him since he's FINALLY graduating (he's 37....don't even get me started!). He declared, after I booked the room, that he is too busy to actually see us and is planning a bunch of activities which cannot include kids and suggested I not bring mine. So I'm all "fuck you, I'm still coming but am just going to do whatever we feel like". Anyway, my mom told me last night that he invited us to brunch on Saturday before we head home.....at noon....at a place that does not serve kid-friendly food....where he expects my mom to pick up the tab....and he invited a shit-ton of his friends so he won't even really be visiting with us anyway.

He's moving to Taiwan in a few weeks and I'm glad because he won't be able to take advantage of my mom as easily anymore!

I have never understood the whole "does not serve kid-friendly food thing." What in the world is "kid-friendly food?" Even when ds was little I could find for for him anywhere. I know so many people who cook one meal for their kids and another for the adults because of this kid-friendly food concept. It boggles my mind!

He wants to go to an uber fancy sushi place. And I'm being a dick for the sake of being a dick because he pisses me off!

[formerlyak]

Sushi is the one that was a little harder sometimes, but they usually have some type of noodles (Udon and the like). Go, order noodles for the kids, and teach them to slurp them loudly to annoy your bro

I get what you're saying, but not everyone's kids eat like that. I have one who will eat anything from anywhere and one who has sensory processing disorder who has a very limited diet. If a restaurant doesn't serve grilled cheese sandwiches (has to be yellow cheese on white bread) or pizza (can't be flatbread, can't have meat on it), we have to bring our own food for him. It's frustrating as hell, but it also beats him gagging and puking when you put something new in front of him.

I have a friend who had a son with this, and I get what you are saying. But that is the exception, not the norm. KWIM? And she would eat wherever, but just bring food that her son would eat in a tiny cooler bag. I think his foods were chicken nuggets and something else.

My son is 6 and he loves sushi... he even asked to try octopus (I don't even eat that! He saw it and said he wanted to try it!)
No point to this other than AWing my son

My friend's son loves sushi. First time we took him out with us (about 2 yrs old), he grabbed a piece of sushi off of another friend's plate and was eating it before the plate was on the table.

He contacted me out of the blue a couple of weeks ago (it's been almost 6 months since we broke up/ talked)
We talked a bit and eventually agreed to get together Saturday. I didn't hear from him all day until like 8:30pm when he said his XW hadn't picked up their son yet. I told him when I didn't hear from him all day I made other plans. He said he'd call me the next morning. He didn't call me. He texted me later that day and I've been ignoring him ever since. Then I engaged with him when he texted me again this morning and basically said I don't know what you want from me. I'm not having this conversation over text message. So he's supposed to call me this afternoon so I can tell him off. There's more to the story of course, but didn't want to type out a novel.

[explorer2001]

I feel like a massive horndog. I want to kiss, make out, have sex. There isn't a specific person associated with this desire. Just insanely, distractingly intense desire, to the point of almost feeling it on my skin. Therefore I have exactly no focus at work. Grrr!

[hobs209]

I will be seeing my ex at the airport on Sunday and plan to look ridiculously hot just because I can. I'm also using the money he paid me for some house items to buy a new iPad. My therapy session this am left me feeling all kinds of confident and sassy lol.

I'm not sure what I ate for lunch, but I have the WORST gas! I have a portrait session this afternoon and I really hope I don't fart in front of them!!

I went to my normal hangout spot last night and chatted up a cute guy that just started working there. When he got off we went back to his apartment, put a movie in, and made out. Dude is an awesome kisser. He is also 20 years old. :X

I approve this message!

Hahahaha! I definitely knew you would, MCC!

[lookingup]

And actually I have another flameful. The guy is Muslim, and I've never known anyone that's Muslim before, so I was super curious...

and last night when I got home, I googled to find out whether Muslim men are circumcised. The answer is "yes" for anyone else who might be curious.
