Say it here cause you can't say it directly- the get it off your chest thread (Part 1)

What have you been eating dog ?

Well, it’s biblical. Sort of. Makes you wonder about favored DIL status.

I am too upset to even talk. No, I do not believe she stole them but where are they?

i feel so old and frustrated as i just cant figure out how to communicate with a group of HS boys that i offered to help with an indoor league. Why can’t my phone text them all at once? Why dont they read their email? Why dont some receive my texts? why do they flippin include me on their group texts at MIDNIGHT talking about such strange things??? why is technology so difficult? I just dont get it all. ok, rant over.

Whew. It was just a mistake!
Next time we will both slow down.

Just one quiet week- no drama - no emotional earthquakes. No one sick, dying or going into treatment. We have 3 months til school is over. Please- no more- I’m tired.

Please. Enough with the RANDOM words in all caps. You are killing me HERE.

Wow… words fail me :))

Good grief man, have you not yet noticed people are not responding to your daily SJW gripe thread of the day?

We offered to help you several times over the past year with your college applications and financial aid. You said that you didn’t need any help. Well, why did you go to my friends house and say that you didn’t have the $2000 for room and board. You are a US citizen, but your mother isn’t. Your stepfather is going to have to fill out the FAFSA information, but doesn’t want to. Why, oh why couldn’t you come to us a year ago when we offered again and again.

You’re never coming back.

Some days it’s really hard to hold it together as a trauma chaplain. And hard to drive home when it’s finally safe to cry.

Find it amusing you’ve recently been asking publicly on social media for help from one of my friends whom you previously snobbed and insulted for years on social media and IRL for opting to major in the humanities at a respectable/elite U while you were the “superior” business management major who’d be on the fast track to the senior management of an ibank in the position to hire her as “your secretary” as “an act of charity”.

My how the tables have turned in a little more than a decade and she’s the one on the senior exec fast track with great influence on hiring in her ibank firm and you’re the one “seeking charity” for a position which you’re not remotely qualified for based on that firm’s rep and your posted online resume.

Knowing her feelings about those past comments and how professional she is about her work, the best response you can hope for is a polite finessed form of “don’t let the door slam you on your way out.”

Our child is (entirely justifiably) grounded from her cell phone. Unfortunately, this is an enormous inconvenience for me. I say, while sitting in the school parking lot waiting for the activity bus to return from contest, having left work early and rushed over only to have to wait for their eventual arrival. Because without a phone, she can’t text me an ETA.

Crazier and crazier.

I’m going to start responding “essential oils” to every question. Who knew that they are the miracle cure for absolutely everything under the sun? I mean, why have medicine or doctors? Just breathe and oil or two and you’re CURED! Smdh.

Stop saying, “we applied”. Please.

You really brought a 15 month old with a pacifier and a 3 year old to a matinee this afternoon for an acrobatic and cooking show in one our main theaters? Then you moved your seat from a perfectly good one to sit behind me so that not only your kid but you could kick the back of my seat. YOU talked more than the kids and I asked you to be quiet but you ignored me. I finally left my seat to go to another and then you decide to return to your original seat where there was not a single person in front of you. You and yours could have kicked to your hearts content!

I get the pain of never getting to do an adult thing when you have little ones. Maybe a friend was performing or you use to be in the same profession.

But sorry! Suffer at Chucky Cheeses for a few years just like the rest of us!

Check another bucket list goal off…I made my own bagels :slight_smile:

I have sometimes thought about X. We dated when I was 18 and I dumped him because there was no spark. But he was sooo nice and kind. Maybe if I had just given him a longer tryout, a spark would have developed. Especially when my dh died way too young, maybe if I had married X, at least I’d still have a husband… I just googled X this morning and found he died 2 years ago, also way too young. :frowning: I read his obituary and saw his story was very similar to dh’s. So, my what if? has been answered. Even if I had taken a different path, life would have been so very similar and I would have ended up in the same place. Destiny.
