NH&F Confessions

[Deleted]

Yep, you can totally see my bra through my shirt today. I didn't notice until I went to the ladies room.

Your turn. 

[emuni04]

We were not very careful this month and this is going to be the longest two weeks EVER.

[libbygrl109]

As much as I hate that my school is t-shirt happy for every single event that's held for students, I like that on those days I can wear jeans to work.

This happens to me more than I care to admit.

I'm wasting so much time right now trying to figure out how to create a formula in excel that will do what I want. And honestly I don't really care that it's taking me forever, I'm more frustrated that I don't know the program better.

DH went to the IL's to surprise his mom for mother's day. I love my MIL but I was glad that I had another obligation already and couldn't go. I pretended to be disappointed, but really I was wallowing in self pity about not having my mom to celebrate with. Big baby- I have so much to be thankful for.

[shellfish26]

 I was supposed to travel OOT this weekend for a family event. I adore my ILs, but I was not looking forward to making the trip alone (H is now on call 24/7 for the summer, so he can't leave the area), and the trip was stressing me out more than it should have. So, I decided just not to go, and I am SO relieved.

And to make this H&F-related- I am excited that I can now easily fit in my long run, a run with the local running club AND going to watch the Columbia Tri to cheer on some friends!

Also, I had my Brazilian Blowout yesterday. My hair is flowing. My hair has NEVER been flowing. I feel pretty.

:hugs: I hear ya. I try to stay off Facebook on Mother's Day because everyone posting pics of their moms makes me so sad and lonely. And my friends who are all like "suck it up and spit out a kid, it'll fill the void!" Can go fuck themselves with a lawnmower.

Ew, sounds like those aren't very good friends!  What a shitty thing to say.   (hug) (hug2)

Mine is that I am sick of the passive aggressive BS that is going on in my office.  The behind the back talking and tattle-tale-ing.  Geez, what grade am I in again?

Omg, hugs back first of all, but this- made me laugh. Thank you! And so very true. Can you believe that I actually had a friend say to me that I was "lucky" to have this behind me already and that she was dreading the day, blah blah blah. Oh well. I think sometimes people just don't know what to say so they say something silly.

*hugs* to you both.

Stealing the phrase "can go fuck themselves with a lawnmower" though.

[taratru]

yeah, Mother's Day is the suck. Even though I have kids of my own, and that part is awesome, it just doesn't fill the hole of not having a mom for 31 years.

I have no confession today. Wait, yes I do. I think there's some kind of surprise party happening tomorrow night. So if it does happen, I'm not going to be surprised. I'm a terrible liar, so that will suck.

So when you get a brazilian blowout, does it last post-washing?

School me, I'm dumb w/ hair.

Joining the club. I'm pretty sure having kids will probably set me off even more than filling a void. I wish I could've skipped mother's day with my IL's.

My confession is I have to see my IL's 4 out of the 6 weekends starting last weekend and I really don't want to hang out with them that much. Once a month is more than enough time in my book.

[gumi]

Mine is almost h&f because it happened at the pool.

So, I was swimming at my gym indoors, and I swear, the indoor pool/hot tub area at Lifetime is like a melting pot of older men, with hairy bellies, who do not even try to hide it when they ogle you.

Anyway, after my swim, I was in the hot tub (alone) trying not to make eye contact with anyone in the adjacent hot tub and this fine piece of man-meat came walking past...he was all tattooed up and had every crevice of every muscle wonderfully defined. And, he was wearing an ITTY BITTY SPEEDO, which showed his outline, clear as day. Basically, I could see his penis. I was not kidding when I said "every muscle!"

And I TOTALLY ogled him. I didn't even think about it! It was just like my brain was like, "penis...must stare at it." I bet he is always walking past the hot tub thinking, "damn old ladies, why do they always have to stare at my junk?"

lol.
I kinda get it now...if I dont want old men staring at my boobs at the pool, I need to swim in a parka.

A. That's is extremely rude to say
B. Having a kid doesn't fill the void of losing your mother. It makes you appreciate what she did for you more but it will never fill the void.

[hannahb]

I am in a "just don't give a shit mood". My co workers and my patients are really grating my nerves for no apparent reason. It's just one of those weeks

[CallingAllAngels]

I already ate my lunch. I started at 10:57.

[runaways]

I'm going to buy more lipstick today.

[blndsnbrdr]

I seriously wish I wasn't at work right now.
I'm annoyed with all the shit they are throwing on my desk the day before I leave for a 4 day weekend.

I already have to schedule extra stuff, stop giving me extra work!

[Brit]

I just had two chocolate bars delivered to me. (You can get absolutely anything you want delivered to your front door here. Food, like even grocery store food, iPhones, manicures, everything.)

The confession isn't about the chocolate. It is that I was too lazy to walk across the street to get it myself.

Unless your freaking infertile. Sore subject for me. I'm sorry your friends say awful thing like that. Why don't people think before saying things??

did you figure out the ballet thing?

[G22]

We're doing an IVF cycle this fall. I know most people are terrified of multiples when it comes to fertility treatments. I'd gladly be OK with it. I always saw myself with like 3-4 kids and its taking forever to even get one. My H is OK with it if it happens too.

Yeah. Ugh. It is $231/month. It stops for the summer at the end of June. We will continue until then. We will not automatically enroll in the fall, but will probably suck it up and do it if DD asks again. It isn't really possible for us to take her elsewhere to do it and the other girls would still be leaving 'class' without her to do it. I still feel like that is crazy expensive, but technically we can afford to let her go.

Heh, I bought my first blow dryer last week, so this is all new to me too!

Yes, it's a solution that gets applied to the hear and then it gets flatironed to set it.  Then they wash it out and blowdry it out again.  My curls were super tight (to the point where strangers often approach me to "boing" them :?), so this is a huge change for me.   I rinsed it with conditioner this morning and it blew out straight. I just used a flat iron to smooth it.  It's supposed to last 10-12 weeks, but I have no idea what will happen once it wears off!   It's not that I hate my curls- its just that the DC humidity is ridiculous already and I couldn't take it one more day!

[clseale]

This thread is cracking me up. I'm sorry to everyone struggling, but the pool, chocolate bar, and lunch confessions have me in fits of giggles.

I give no fucks about anything right now. It's been a few weeks since I've had a feeling of giving a shit. I need to snap out of it. Both work & running, deserve a bit more attention.

My cousins had ivf and they now are the proud parents of the most perfect and adorable quads in the history of the universe I'll ask them to send you some of their vibes this fall!

That would be awesome
