Because I've got a flameful...
I found out via facebook that a guy I had a huge crush on in college is going to our homecoming. I'm also going with FI, a close college friend and her bf. I haven't been motivated to work out lately, and now I'm totally driven to look decent for when that weekend rolls by. I'm not going to flirt or anything, but I kinda feel like a dick that the old college flame motivates me in this way.

I go back to college homecomings to see the marching band perform and the football game. A lot of alum from band and my sorority go back and it's nice to catch up with everyone.
I'm annoyed with all the hoopla over wealthy vs not wealthy.
Actually I'm annoyed with almost everything today.
DD would not mind before bed and was running around crazy. I put her to bed without brushing her hair after her bath. I kind of ran my fingers through her hair as I was putting her in bed. It will be a mess in the morning.
When I see sunshineray giving relationship advice to anyone I can't help think, "Are you kidding me?"
I think sequins is trying too hard to fit in. I am getting a big zit on my chin and I'm worried about looking like a loser at the DFW gtg this weekend. No one stare at it, okay?!

"I was thinking about getting off on demand, but it sounds like I should be glad that I didn't"

I don't think I've ever noticed a zit on anyone else unless they call attention to it. I don't think anyone would notice, especially if you use concealer or something
The revelation that rainbow chip icing has been discontinued shattered me. I will also add, I have a sinus infection.
I said to my H, as he walked out the door to go to the gym, "You should hit up the grocery store and see if you can find some rainbow chip frosting. It will help with my healing."
If he finds some, I'm eating it with a spoon. I am so fat.
Whattheeverlovingfuck are you saying? It was discontinued?

I don't think this is flameful. Your baby will be born during flu season and the TDAP isn't something people generally think to keep up with.
Thank you for validating me! I know my mom, step-mom and sister will all have flu shots at the very least but I am not sure about tdap. And I'm extra concerned about them being carriers since all 3 work in schools.
Hah! I sent an email yesterday asking if they got their shots. They all checked, and got back with me to tell me that they were indeed up to date (thanks to visiting us in Lima).
So question - how do I nicely tell everyone to get vaccinated and let them know if they do not get vaccinated they will not be able to visit the baby until he is a few months old (when he has all his vaccines)? Or would it be ok if they didn't hold him and wore a mask?
I would just speak up and be honest. "Hey, H and I want to limit the baby's exposure to germs during the flu season. Have you had your vaccine?" But, if your family is anything like mine, be prepared for some eye rolling. Some people just don't get it. Also, if it helps, blame it on being a first time mom. For some reason, people I knew were more receptive if I acted like I knew I was being overprotective.
ETA: Not that it *is* overprotective on your part. But, people were more likely to play along with me if I pretended it was. Does that make sense?

I have some red craziness on my forehead. I changed my FB profile pic, then looked at it and realized my forehead is a huge issue and took it down, lol. I'm right there with you.
My mom is speaking at a big women's event at her church in the spring. I'm so excited for her. She's spoken before at events, most notably about 5 years ago. When she first started speaking it ended up coming out that she and my father were separated when I was a baby for a year. I had no idea and it came as a HUGE blow. I've never told anyone this, but I think it's one of the reasons I jumped into my first marriage when I shouldn't have because I wanted to do it better than my parents.
Well now, a divorce for me, a divorce for my parents, and a second marriage for me later, she wants me to listen to that original recording "so I can know..." Know what mom? What else is there that I need to know?! I don't want to know it all! I almost don't even want to hear her speak in the spring. She tells me not to take it personally, but I was an EXTREMELY difficult child and listening to her talk about that and how rough it was on her hurts me. I also get very defensive when people judge or hurt my mom. I know I need to suck it up and listen to her recording and support her, especially to help her work out her new testimony or whatever, but I seriously don't want to.
Not flameful, It's awkward when a parent speaks about you this way or when your perception of your past/family life changes, particularly in front of people you don't know. I'm sorry you had to find out about your parent's separation this way too, that sucks

I am considering sending an email to our parents and siblings to remind them to get their flu & tdap shots before visiting the baby.
NOT FLAMEFUL. Or, rather, I'll totally be this person when the babies arrive. So maybe I'm equally flameful. Plus, when DD was a baby - and born during h1n1 and flu season, I required that everyone who visited - AND everyone in their household - had been healthy for 48 hours before visiting. I'll do the same again this time around.

I honestly cannot figure out how a belt or whatever schoolkids carried back in the dayyyz (a strap) actually held their little books together. I can't even get a three present boxes to stay together with ribbon.

I am really excited about the GTG.
Lets get a dark booth in the back somewhere!
I agree I'll have to do my make up in a hotel room so I'll look blah.
So I should tell them they can't even see him until he is 6 months old? Or that they can't hold him?
i would start off just asking them to get it. let them say no before you start saying anything about not being able to see him.
This is what I was thinking. I would just ask them, no explanation, no links to statistics, just say, "hey, don't forget to get vaccinated before you come to visit!"

Got a new boss last week. I think she is stupid. Turning 30 next month and even though I typically ignore my birthdays, I want something really cool/awesome to commemorate my 30th. Like a surprise weekend trip or a kitten or something. lol
