Good morning! How is everyone?
I'm feeling pretty good today -managed to go to bed at a decent hour and I have coffee in hand. I think I'm going shopping after work. I have all of my outfits picked out for BF's birthday this weekend but I need some shoes for my dress friday. Also I have a coupon for Ulta so I (probably don't) need new makeup.
I had fun meeting peppermint as well as some ML ladies this weekend!
"This prick is asking for someone here to bring him to task Somebody give me some dirt on this vacuous mass so we can at last unmask him I'll pull the trigger on it, someone load the gun and cock it While we were all watching, he got Washington in his pocket."
I woke up feeling sad. I dreamt I was breaking up with an old boyfriend and he was being really mean to be in my dream (that wasn't how our actual breakup went). He was the only guy I really loved since my divorce. We weren't meant to be and he's married to someone else. It was a shitty dream.
I was dating 2 guys and now I am dating none. I hate dating but I would like to find someone to settle down with. It feels like it will never happen.
Yesterday I went to bed at 9 or 10 (I forget) and slept the whole night-guess I needed my rest! Right before bed I made plans with a girlfriend for yoga and dinner tonight. This is the friend who I mentioned in the ED thread so I'm really happy we have an active and eating thing to do together I came up with a good blog idea for work and even rocked the graphic today. I'm feeling very full today, in a good way, or perhaps that's just the caffeine talking. Three cheers for a good week ahead!

I had the most bizarre dream last night about some dermatologist that was threatening me. Told me he would break my wrist and kept driving a monster truck up to my window to peer in at me with a skull mask on and taunt me. I had to testify against him so he'd lose his medical license.
This morning I woke up with what felt like a little cut just inside my nose. Upon inspection it was a tiny whitehead at the bottom of my nostril. I had to pop it, it looked like a tiny booger! I first pulled out 2 invisible hairs before I successfully squeezed it. That shit hurt!!
I had sex with a guy on the second date last week. He texted the next day blah blah but is doing the disappearing act for sure. I know it happens and am telling myself it's for the best to find out now that he isn't interested.... But it's a shitty feeling
Weekend was awesome, great weather, my parents were in excellent moods and the kids were good. We had fun at the park yesterday and I got to sleep in my room again (finally).
My yellow jacket nightmare is over, he had someone come out and make sure he killed the nest then vacuum/seal up the spot. It felt so good to be in my bed again.
My boss is back from vacation, she left me a nice thank you note and some handmade soap + pretty soap dish on my desk. She's super nice :-)
It's still going to be busy this week, but now there are two of us to handle it all.
I'm ready for Monday! I've got a seminar on Tuesday and we've got another the following week so I'm promoting those and I've got a full week ahead!
Hoping P has another awesome week like last week.
I need to make sure my attorney gets that paperwork filed this week. Xh thinks he has a visit on Veterans Day. We need to get everything settled before then!
This weekend was so amazing, I'm in denial that it's Monday because I don't want it to end!
The GTG was a lot of fun and it was nice to meet lyssbobiss, Command, B613, and the ML girls. I spent the rest of the weekend outdoors - hiking and walking with my pup, and just enjoying the weather. My pup seems to be feeling better and the rest of her tests came back negative, so I'm hoping we've turned the corner!
No big plans this week, but I'm looking forward to seeing where the week takes me

I talked to a guy from Tinder for over an hour yesterday. We are planning on getting drinks/food sometime this week. We will see. He seems nice but I'm already worried we won't be compatible in the long run (and trust me I feel ridiculous even typing that). He got his dog from a breeder, I'm a huge believer in rescuing and going through animal control. He hunts and fishes and I really don't understand that as a hobby, even though I'm a hypocrite who eats meat. I need to stop this because I am just setting myself up for failure and I need to just have a nice time.
BF was sick with a bad cold most of last week and this weekend so we didn't get to hang out. We did talk on the phone a lot but I look forward to seeing him when he feels better. I didn't do much on Friday, then I had a migraine during the day on Saturday. Fortunately, I felt better in the evening so I met up with a friend. She and I went for Indian and then we watched Dracula Untold. It was fun to catch up with her.
It was a good weekend -- nothing earth shattering, but all around nice.
We went out for Mexican on Friday night, and then fell asleep on the couch watching C.H.U.D. (lol)
On Saturday, we had our friend's son's 3rd birthday party. Thor had his radio show, and I hung out in the studio and read. After that, we headed out to hear some live music.
Yesterday was LAZY. We slept in, got up, went shoe-shopping, had Indian for dinner and then saw Bjork Biophilia Live, which I definitely recommend seeing, if you like Bjork.
I'm feeling okay today. My sciatic nerve has a mind of it's own though.
I got to hang out with RR last night for a little bit. We watched some reruns of SNL and spent some private time together before he's on the road again today for work. He'll be back Thursday.
I'm really looking forward to Halloween. My costume, I *hope*, will be amazing.

pantsoffdanceoff - if you feel like your "core" beliefs don't match up with this guy already, maybe you should not pursue it any further?
on the other hand, not every date has to turn into a long relationship. i have to remind myself of this regularly. part of dating is meeting new people and getting to know them, and i find myself often having to remind myself of this, instead of throwing up my own barriers before i've even met them.

So jealous of the Indian food. There are no indian restaurants anywhere near here.
Aw, man. I would be so bummed. I love Indian food so much.

I completely agree. I need to stop trying to find a husband and just focus on having a good time with somebody.
Had a really nice weekend. Saturday was just one of those perfectly normal days that is really awesome. I wish every day could be that nice. Sunday was a TCB day. I took myself to see a sappy chick movie, then did some errands. I wanted to get a manicure, but decided I was better off doing it myself since it will all chip in 5 days anyways. But I did want to buy myslef a neww polish. So picked out a great shade, then got home, only to realize I already had this color. Guess I really like it!
This week should be pretty fun too...G2G on Wednesday, getting my hair did on Thursday, Halloween is on Friday, then I am flying home Saturday for my nephews birthday. Busy and fun!

The one night stand thread on ML makes me feel confused on whether I should be smugly sexually evolved, or shamefully slutty. Really, it's neither, different strokes and all that (heh). But SOOO many with 0-1 one night stands? (or sex with people you barely know). I've had a few real one night stands, but sex with someone I barely know? Yeah. I slept with people at first meet. Then they would become a FWB. Well, Stranger with benefits.
I had a great weekend! Friday night was my friends party for her wedding, the Sangeet. So much dancing and food! The wedding was on Saturday and she looked gorgeous. She was so happy! They wrote their own vows and everyone cried when the groom read his. It was a great day! Yesterday I finished a paper for school and just chilled at home.

DH and I had a great weekend! We went to a Halloween party on Saturday, then a group of friends from the party went to see Rocky Horror Picture Show at midnight. I love the movie, I own it and have seen it a hundred times, but this was the first time seeing it in a theater. There were tons of people dressed as characters (of course), and we were also in costume, but not movie costumes. It was so much fun, I can't believe I waited so long to do it. Seeing the women there dressed in their sexy costumes has spurred me to really start the workout program I've been putting off. Another thing that has made me really decide to buckle down and work out was shopping for a costume piece that I need for a pirate-themed thing next month. DH and I do these pirate-themed things (like RenFaire, not cosplay) 5-6 times a year. Part of my costume is a pair of faux leather leggings. The last time I wore them, I had put on enough weight to where they wouldn't stay in place. I have a belly-pooch, and they kept sliding down, so they felt like saggy cheap pantyhose. I finally faced the reality that the XL aren't the right size for me, and I need to go up to plus-sizes for the leggings. It's the first time that I've had to buy something PS in my life, and I'm disappointed in myself. I lost 30+ lbs years ago, and swore to myself that I'd never let my weight get that high again. Well, I've gotten back there, plus more.
Anyway, that was a bit of a downer, so to break the gloom, I'm AWing the cake I made for the Halloween party. I went as a Crazy Cat lady, and made this Litter Box cake. On the top is crushed shortbread cookies, some colored with green food coloring to look like the chlorophyll in litter, and the "treats" on top are softened and rolled bite-sized Snickers.

I have an exam today. The kids I nanny for are both sick so I don't have to nanny today since their mom is taking them to the doctor. I'm so grateful to get extra studying done today.
My BF comes home from NY today and I'm so excited. I don't think I'll get to see him because he's pretty tired but I will get to talk to him and see him tomorrow. YAY! I missed him.
Work feels more under control than the past few weeks. Knock on wood! I'm really getting back into eating right. I'm the largest I've ever been in my life and it's just not acceptable or okay. I'm so uncomfortable and I feel horrible about myself. But I'm trying to lift myself up and not wallow by really focusing on my appearance and being kind to myself. I hope I can drop this weight soon.

I don't think I could eat that cake. You did a really good job, maybe too good!

It was pretty gross looking; DH wouldn't eat any of it! I had a ton of fun making it.
I had a pretty good weekend! Friday night, hung out with some friends, and my mom & brother. We had drinks, sang along to the songs we selected on the jukebox, and lots of laughs. It was a great time.
Saturday mom & I got manis and pedis, then we celebrated my birthday with my family.
Yesterday, I mostly hung out at home. Did laundry, cleaned, watched a couple movies, and made a soup in the crockpot.
This is going to be a pretty busy week for me. So I'm glad I got tons done yesterday!

I had the last 2 1/2 innings of last night's giants texted to me play by play by not 1 but 2 guys ! I believe BT might have been at the game and my hockey loving foodie must have been watching it on tv.
I had the game on earlier then turned it off lest I jinx bumgarner's shutout .. I got a look at Brandon Crawford and said yumm ..... dd wanted to know why #thingsyouDONOTtella5yo
I'm sort of rolling my weekend into Monday. I don't have a car today and don't expect to get much done. I will go work out this evening and Mauer is out of food. So I need to get to Petsmart.
Yesterday, I nearly finished Mauer's halloween costume. He's going to be the eleventh Doctor. I still need to attach he bowtie to a collar and add elastic to the fez.

I was finally able to go back to tennis training since I could go last week because it rained every single evening. Dude I am soooo out of shape and today I am really sore. I think they gave me a hard time since I hadn't been there in like 5 months and they made me run almost 2 miles before even going in the court.
I have to go this evening again. I hope I survive haha.
I went to my nephews costume halloween party over the weekend, and discovered that my mermaid pants were destroyed I must've spilled perfume or hairspray or alcohol on them, because it wiped off the scales in parts. I'm so bummied. Luckily my niece came through with a Snow White costume that earned me a new best friend, a 4 year old Rainbow Brite at the party. That means I won't be a zombie mermaid on Friday. Just a regular old zombie. Boo.
Tonight I'm going with J and his friends/coworkers to watch the Cowboys game at a theatre/lounge. That means I'm having chili fries and hot wings for dinner. Aw yeeeah.
