Jan8

Was she also the one who couldn't find anything worth buying at Target?

[rex]

Yes! Oh Jan8. You were special.

Yes. And she made her DH turn in his birthday money for a joint expense and he cried. Oh the stories.

[carfar]

Also, didn't she also say Madonna looked heavy in her Super Bowl performance ? Or was that someone else?

I know people don't care that Jan8 didn't transition, but I do miss her. Sisugal, too. I know she's possibly here, but when I looked at that other poster, I wasn't convinced.

Sisu is Lys, I believe.

[DarcyLongfellow]

Oh, Jan8. I can barely remember posters' names (I rely on the pics), but I could never forget her. To this day I remain flabbergasted that she couldn't spend $20 at Target. She was crazy cakes.

[bronxgirl]

As soon as she mentioned where she went to HS it all made sense.

Yes. I was trying to think of who it was. Thank you. "Work it." lolol.

....but....but...her grandmother paid for her education, and everything else, on her $30 something per year salary. Don't hate!

I too miss Jan8. And catsareniice.

[dexteroni]

Oh I was mistaken. It was "let's work." community.thenest.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/63085771.aspx

And because I was there, the carrots post. community.thenest.com/cs/ks/forums/1/50140504/ShowThread.aspx

Where? I don't think I've ever known.

[Deleted]

I always pictured Jan8 as very....dainty. Not only did she think carrots and Madonna were fat, her grocery budget was like, $5 per week.

[dexteroni]

Because I wanted to relive it (and am still incredulous): the Target post. community.thenest.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/52475059.aspx

And the post where I found is pretty good too - best of 2011. It all seems so long ago but it was just last year. community.thenest.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/61336235.aspx

I will never forget the time she said she was eating 1/4 of a pork chop for dinner. Maybe it's because pork chops are like my favorite cut of meat, but I cannot fathom eating just a 1/4 of a pork chop.

I miss her. She was good entertainment.

And lys is totally sisugal. If she's not, then this lys chick is doing a freakishly uncanny impersonation of sisu on CEP.

Laurel... a private girls prep school. The snooty girls who go there are known for two things. Bitchiness and eating disorders. So... it explains a lot.

Yes, I know Laurel. I don't think it's any more like that than Hawken or HB. But yes. I didn't realize she went there.

LOL. Chicken breast is kind of meh, so I would share my morsels with the septimus children. Do not make me share a pork chop. I won't do it. They are too nummy. Unless it's one of those crappy boneless pork chops, in which case, I'll go vegetarian.

[Deleted]

HA HA HA, I loved reading the original carrot thread. Hilarious. Yes, I am fat because I overeat on raw veggies. LOL.

Also, if Jan8 is who I think she is (and I'm 90% certain she is), then her husband is fat (as a fattie myself, I think it's okay for me to say that). Or at least he was when they got married. Am I correct that they are both attorneys, she works in higher ed, she is an attractive (and very thin) African American, her H is an overweight white guy, and they own a very modest home that they were renovating? If that is her (and I'm pretty sure it is), it's pretty funny that she's ranting about overeating.

I don't think so. Lys once suggested how someone should go about coloring her hair and Sisu hated hair color. Otherwise they are very similar.

I wasn't totally sure until the other day Lys posted she was from the same place as Sisu.

I always wondered if she was the black or white woman in her avatar photo.

I think she may have left higher ed. She posted once about how amazing her life was and she was just so lucky that everything was so perfect.

[mmmomof2]

Didn't she not want to leave her job b/c it was so cake. She basically couponed all day and got paid for any work outside of her job description. I still call bs on her Target rant.

[Deleted]

I usually share a chicken breast with DD, but DH could eat 2 on his own.

I do miss Jan8's posts. They brought a certain something to the board.
