Can I play here again?

I got kind of wrapped up in HIH, and started a new job. Then I quit that job, got a new job, in a brand new industry (to me!) and got married so it’s been kind of hectic over here.

I’m happy to see some familiar “faces” and I hope you will have me back🤗

Ok, let’s just assume you’re going to tell us more about the new job and industry etc later if you feel comfortable with that. And how your DD is doing and how married life is treating you.

Now on to the important things:

1) are you still going to give us fashion advice? Because um, yeah, I still need it. And
2) please, please tell me that at some point during your wedding festivities, the crazy crew tried to get you to wear a shirt that said “Cause I’m the Bride, Bitches!” (And btw last Xmas Facebook and Amazon both tried to sell me “Merry Christmas, Bitches” sweatshirts because, like me, they have not forgotten that whole episode.)

Haha!

Yes I definitely will talk about the new job, maybe in the Thursday update if you guys are still doing that?

1) sure! It’s still my first love ❤️
2) they didn’t, but they did take me out for bachelorette festivities, including a home made crown of penii. I wore it in the Uber over to one of the bars, but I had to put my foot down on wearing it into the bar. I’m dying that amazon is baiting you like that.

Welcome back and congrats on the new job.

I’m curious if any more drama has occurred for the brief polyamorous couple as they logistically deal with the baby getting older and custody being shared. If I recall correctly they decided to stop seeing other people and the Dad still saw the baby.

Yes. There is more drama!

The baby just turned one in March. The my friends are still together, and decided to stay married, not see other people (as far as I know). The father has the baby every other weekend, and things are tense between him and my friend, as they have to meet at a neutral place to pick up and drop off the baby . My parents did this, because they couldn’t get along and honestly it makes my stomach hurt to think about it.

Anyway, sometime over the winter there was a CPS call- someone expressed concern for the living conditions at my friends house- said it was dirty, animals everywhere, that my friend and her husband smoke pot in front of the kids etc. I heard about this after the fact, and the call was place anonymously, but I mean there is no doubt as to who placed the call.

I haven’t really checked in with her since maybe around Valentine’s Day so I’m not sure how that was resolved. I’m guessing noting really came out of the visit? Either way it’s a huge mess.

Haha!

I am still seeing skinny jeans everywhere, though my sister (who is 19 and very into trendy clothes right now) is super into high waisted bell bottoms. Those are not for me, and have never been.

I have read a few articles that the fashion of the early 2000s is coming back- super duper low rise jeans, Juicy velour track suits, giant silver hoop earrings. My early 20s are coming back to haunt me.

Hah! I recently saw a teenager wearing low-rise/bootcut jeans, a tight sweater (visible midriff), and white Adidas. 16 year-old k3am was not-so-secretly victorious that her favorite fashion style was "timeless."
