1 - I lost the bookmark for this board on my phone and when I search proboards i can't find it. Why don't we show up under 'GBCN'?
2 - i REALLY like the Allen Stone song "Sleep", but I'm over 30 and don't have an iPod, so DH has to steal it for me. If anyone can tell me how to pay this guy for his album now that I can't go buy the actual damn thing, let me know. I feel like I need to find him and hand him $20.
3 - Joss Whedon is now my favorite composer (now give me Dr. Horrible pt 2). Then Cole Porter and Stephen Sondheim. Suck it Andrew Lloyd Weber - although I do appreciate that you've employed both John Barrowman and Graham Norton.
4 - I need someone to make me a Jedi costume for Halloween AND a steampunk outfit for next May. I just don't have time. Or the mad skillz.
I'm dropping everything to fly to MN for a funeral on Saturday. She was one of my favorite people and I'm so glad I can go, but it's going to be really really sad. And I kinda wish I could crawl in a hole that didn't involve travel away from my breastfeeding infant and pretend it didn't happen.
Also I love your music rant. I never thought I'd be a person that buys things on iTunes. It's weird.
I've been sitting in a parking lot at work babysitting a truck for 1.5 hours. Seriously, on days things need to go really smooth, nothing ever does. Stupid chemical company next door issued an alert, had to clear the area, got back to site, lost my support crews, now trying to get shit done during shift turnover, exactly what I was here at 5am trying to avoid.
On a positive note, the parish was smart enough to just send the 2am alert by email, not robo-call like they have been known to do when they activated the emergency center for something minor. If they had woken me up to say they activated the emergency center, but no release, if be pissed.
I just found out Boyz II Men is performing at some popcorn festival about 30 mins north of here tomorrow night, and am trying to convince my BFF that we should totally throw her 8 and 10 year olds in the car and force them to experience our most favoritest musical group ever (when we were in middle school). Because it's Boyz II f'ing MEN, damnit.

Dude, if I was closer I would drive there and go with you.
Why are IT people so pretentious? Trust me, I'd LOVE to not have to worry about how my site looks in IE, but people use it. Whenever I read about a work around that IE supports, it's always "Well, if you MUST deal with IE...." WTF? Get over yourself...

I love this song right now too...it's my life soundtrack song right now with 2 kids who are up all night sick and trying to climb out of cribs/transitioning to big boy beds. Sorry, I am of no help I have an iPod.

Aw thanks! I keep reminding BFF that 1. its free and 2. she can use me as a motivator/threat/bribe to encourage good behavior from her kids for the next day or so. Those kids LOVE to hang with their Aunt Lori
I went to a Steampunk ball on short notice last winter!
The hardest part of the costume is the corset... this site (http://www.corsetdeal.com/ ) is where I got mine... I think I paid $30, and it was really really nice, way nicer than you'd think given the price. I have a hand made corset that I wore to get married in, that I paid a helluva lot more than $30 for, and the construction is extremely similar.
The other thing that we did was find (lucky, maybe) an old clock at Goodwill. It was the source for inspiration for my H's hat, my favorite part of both of our costumes:
Just for you, though... there was a woman there in a Dalek Steampunk costume...
I am at my lowest weight since I was 18. I fit into my new size 6 express jeans but I need to lose a little more because I dont want muffin top. I feel ashamed to post in Rascal Avoidance because everyone else is doing races and all I wanted was to lose weight.
If I hear "MOMMY!" yelled from somewhere in the house one more time, I'm going to be giving my kids away. Anyone want one?
I'll take the one who is NOT allergic to Mayo. For real. You can have the one of mine who doesn't need sleep.
My random: My Internist can do pap smears, so technically I could get my entire annual exam done at one time by one doctor. But I love my OB-gyn and really just want a chance to see her. It made me sad when I realized that we were done having kids so I really didn't "need" to see her. But then I was like, well, I'll just keep going to her for my paps.
I go to my GP for paps too, but this reminds me that my OB left for some swanky practice that doesn't take hmos. I'm not a little scared to have another child without her. The one time I saw someone else for a pre-natal my Bp spiked and I had to pee in a bucket for 24 hrs. I would like to entertain switching insurance if we go for #2.

I keep discovering songs that I freaking LOVE and then Glee will go and do a goddamned cover and it looks like I only like them from the show. Like Cough Syrup by Young the Giant. And now apparently they're covering "It's time" by Imagine Dragons. I love that song! Now it looks like I'm a sheep. Motherfuckers!

Also, if anyone feels like a group shanking session I have a good one. My bff got divorced last year because her husband was cheating on her and had been since before they got married. He even gave her an STD. He's a dick. Anyway, she moved on and started dating someone new this year. Six months into her new relationship, she learns that her new boyfriend cheated on her and got another girl pregnant. I want to rip his dick out through his throat. Anyone want to help?

SST is having a hard time adjusting to her new school and it is killing me with guilt. She was so happy at her old school and had lots of friends, including two girls who were her best friends. The other day, during our nighttime bedtime talk, she told me that "Lindsay" wouldn't sit with her at snack even though she asked her, and "I wanted to be her best friend but she said no because she has other best friends."
She's only 3 I thought we had a few years left before having to deal with this kind of thing.

I cut my pointer finger and it blows to text.

till I
God that is awful. PTS's frenemie from her last school used to do the "you can't sit with me because today you are not my best friend." God, I just wanted to punch that little... Anyway.
I hope it gets better. I just really, really hope it gets better. I'm such a softy when it comes to the littles and I can't stand the thought of sst being sad at school.
Thanks. I thought it hurt when I was a kid and had social rejection, but god this is so much worse. One bright spot is that she seems to have made a lunch friend from the classroom next door (there are two classes of the same age broken up into two different rooms but they all have lunch together), so I'm hoping that turns out well.
I don't know what the hell I'm going to do when she gets older and starts having crushes and gets her heart broken.

My mother is in town for a few moe days and I am really sad that she is leaving. Makes me pissed at my dad that he doesn't want to move here and pissed at my husband that he doesn't want to move.
I have done nada but make a huge mess of my desk today.
My ds is not adjusting well to his new school. I feel like a heel for moving him (although it is for the best) and he cried and he NEVER cries at drop off.

Tough love: My therapist once said to me when I was whining about a boyfriend who treated me like shit, "I can't tell you why he treated you that way, but we can try to figure out why you picked him."
This is true, but I figure that's between her and her counselor. My job is to listen and to also want to kick the shit out of this dude.

It is a work trip but I am going with two other guys. Im a little nervous about the work portions but I am very excited to go! Thank you! I dont post because I like running and yoga but only do it for fun and to lose, I do not care about my time-I just like to clear my head. Im also not eating anything foodie interesting.
