I am seeing runner tonight since I will be out of town all weekend and need to spend tomorrow packing.  Had a great dinner and girl time with pantsoffdanceoff and another friend last night.

Just found out the plan for Saturday night in Dallas is to go to the top club in the downtown area that is just pure insanity.  Their motto is bringing the Vegas experience to Dallas.  I am excited, but it's also not the scene I am the most comfortable in, so a little nervous.  My friend keeps texting me countdowns each day until I get there, and I can't wait to see her. The last two weeks or so have just been really good for my spirit, I feel super happy.

I am meeting with my lawyer today. I'm a bundle of nerves. I have no idea what to expect. I met with her once for a consultation, but going today makes it feel like it's reality. I can't be in denial anymore.

I have a concert on Sunday that I've been waiting months for. The lead singer for my favorite band Blue October is doing a solo tour. That should make me feel a lot better.

[1confused1]

Good luck quietmind

I got up at 5am and worked out, Woohoo! !

[pantsoffdanceoff]

I'm being such a baby about my cold. I have a full on man-cold.

bl gave me the kick in the pants that I needed last night to finally go out and get some after way too long not having any.

I've been studying on and off for a new certification. I'm feeling overwhelmed but confident because it will add a few dollars to my paycheck.

Good luck quietmind

bl I'm totally thinking of taking a vacay to Dallas let me know how it is..

Great job 1confused1 and good luck quietmind

Last night I hung out with a friend, her dog, and a dog she was dog-sitting. The pups were so cute and well behaved! It was a very relaxing night, which I needed.

Today we're submitting an application for an apartment. It isn't 100% what I want, but it'll have to do for now!

[tiffany81]

pantsoffdanceoff - I have a feeling you aren't talking about getting some dinner. Right??

bl - your eyelashes look fantastic! Makes me want to do that too.

quietmind - good luck!

My random is that I'm finally starting to think about dating again. I feel like that part of me was dead for so long. The interest is back. And I'm getting a little excited about the idea.

[pantsoffdanceoff]

tiffany81 - No, it was definitely NOT dinner!

Yesterday I went out exploring and it was amazingly great for my soul. I heard this song while driving and it felt like the perfect timing to hear it...maybe the just the simple advice I needed to hear: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qm66N829mw

Today I have errands to get done. I had to handwash something, now I'm doing other laundry. My phone is charging; once charged, I'm heading to the gym. Then I am going to get ready and run to Walmart (blerg) and Target, and maybe swing by the library to get a pool read. Come home, move some laundry, then spend some time at the pool. I also need to get to CVS or Walgreens today or tomorrow to get passport photos made.

My cat is super needy today, but I kind of love it. He is in my lap right now with his arm on my typing hand, lol.

Today I got the FACEBOOK INVITATION to my sister's wedding. It is going to be this year in Galveston on a Thursday. Meaning, I would have to take off AT LEAST three days to travel and be there. Also, it is on a freaking cruise ship and we are "welcome to go on the cruise too." No. I don't want to be stuck on a cruise with people I don't know/like. PLUS, My sister already said she is going to dump her kid on those who go so they can have alone time... NO!

I know this wedding is BEC to me since I hate the guy, but seriously!?! It is 6 months away. This year I have already been to Mexico (planned for a year), going to DC (Planned for a year) going to Vegas (planned for a year), cousin's wedding in Nebraska in September. I have already taken 2 weeks off. I have no more time off! I told her that when she told me about this cruise BS. Which, it's her wedding, her choice, but I just know her FI is going to be a dick about her family not making an effort blah blah blah. Sooo, I guess I will try and see what I can do and take as little time off as possible and it will be completely unenjoyable for me. OH! AND IT'S AT 9:30 A fucking M. AM! WTF!?!

[Deleted]

jojoandleo just say not to that wedding. It screams gift grab. Is there even going to be a reception? I bet they are getting kickbacks in those cruise too for others who sign up.

I got up and put on my workout clothes will fill intentions of getting a run in. But then work had a bunch of come in and I have to be somewhere. Sooo I guess I'll take them off and shower. Feeling guilty I didn't get up sooner. Who can't get a workout in when working from home???

I'm excited for my 5th date with new guy Friday! I love this getting to know you, sexual tension, excitement phase of a new relationship. I'm trying to stay level headed though.

XH's Mom sent me a connection request on Linked-In. She defriended me on Facebook after our divorce. So weird.

[kanga1]

I am proud of myself for something I did last night. I talked to a customer at work on Monday and thought we seemed a little too friendly and a little too much laughing on the phone. I needed an account number from him and he asked if he could just text me a screenshot of his phone so I did that and there were a couple more texts and then he sent a I know he is divorced and I know his parents, they are extrememly nice. Problem is I don't know what this guy looks like but he sounded cute on the phone LOL
So last night I get up the courage and sent him a text asking how he liked the new product and it turned into 2 hours of constant texting. I finally said I had to go to bed and he thanked me for the "great conversation" and we both sent each other good nights with smiley faces. Maybe I am reading too much into this but it really has made me giddy today. Just nice talking with a nice guy and I'm pretty sure there was a little flirting thrown in there. I'm really hoping he texts me now!

I hate ex's (in-laws included)  and social media, I feel like they are just trying to spy on you! Unless of course you still get along really well which usually isn't the case

No - We don't even talk! She defriended me and blocked me on Facebook. Very strange.

Then it's like she just wants to keep tabs on you which is creepy and stalker-ish.....

Or perhaps she just signed up for LinkedIn and was dumb enough to click the box for connect with your address book or whatever that setting is. It is a common mistake. 

This is what I was thinking.  The same thing happened to me with my ex-father in law.

YOU GUYS.

For the first time in my adult life, I found a bikini top that actually encompasses my bust without me spilling over the cups or me feeling too exposed.

I actually, for once, felt good about my bikini top and how I looked in it!!

Here's the link for those interested. I bought the 2nd one shown: www.target.com/c/ava-viv-brand-shop/-/N-4ym1q#navigation=true&category=4ym1q&searchTerm=&view_type=large&sort_by=Featured&faceted_value=55xjp&offset=0&pageCount=30&response_group=Items&isLeaf=true&parent_category_id=5q0g9&custom_price=false&min_price=from&max_price=to

I'm a 38DDD and I went with an 18W. The 20W fit in the cup better, but the band was too big. The 16W fit best in the band, but the cups were too small. I'm hoping that by the end of the summer I will lose some weight and can hopefully snag a few tops on clearance and use them on my cruise! The clasp isn't the best, but for me, it's a small price to pay! I am literally giddy with excitement.

I am going to be on a boat with mp and our non-GBCN friend and her new boy thing and some of his friends and I am freaking out a little about putting on a bathing suit in front of all these people. mp has a banging bod. Our other friend is this adorable little petite thing, and then there is me...it doesn't help that I am pasty pale which makes me feel whale-like. Womp womp.

I will suck it up, and I do have a cute kimono cover-up thing, but still...exposed thighs! eeps!

Just get drunk, and you'll feel like a supermodel. Always works for me!

Yes I told him I was going. It went ok. She was very helpful, and she gave me all the different options. She gave me an estimate of child support he'd have to pay. She also said I'd get alimony for sure if I file on adultery. I really didn't want to do that, mainly because I work for my county and I really don't want to go into a courtroom full of people I work with daily and relive all of this. Does that make sense? But, he told me he'd agree to the adultery if that's what I want. I told her I would call her back in a couple of days. Thanks for asking:)
