Dang it. In the time from this first posting and now, I have gone from "pretty sure I don't have anything" to "dog sitting, wedding, not allowed to take the day of work, and hopefully camping, respectively."

http://theboard.byu.edu/questions/86775/ What are y'all's thoughts? (Is that the correct grammatical structure for that?) Maybe this was just from growing up poor and hearing/reading stories about people losing them, but I never liked the idea of a fancy engagement/wedding ring. It seemed a waste of...

It appears to have stabbed half the internet in the heart. I almost want to watch the series just so I know what everyone's so worked up about.

Smiling selfies in front of monuments to tragedies. Can they stop?

Welcome to the dark side, little flower. You are one of us.

Yaaaaaaasssssssss

I've been teaching since August, and they don't have any sort of grooming requirements, so I've been letting my beard grow out. Well, I couldn't get any sections for summer, so I'm going back to pizza delivery, which means I had to shave. Smooth cheeks are really strange. NO KIDDING THEY'RE REALLY ...

Dear everyone: sharing that your ultrasound has successfully found enough evidence of genitalia to declare your baby a boy or girl is one thing. Sharing the actual ultrasound photo with an arrow pointing out said genitalia makes me feel very strange inside. Please don't. Alternately, keep sharing sa...

A few weeks ago we had people over for Sunday dinner and, toward the end of the meal, I changed into a tank top, pushed both my bra straps and the tank top straps off my shoulders, and sat around in this precarious position for the rest of the night. Everyone there was either related to me or into w...

My choir had a concert today on Temple Square. 1. We had to be there an hour and a half early for NO REASON aside from "Tabernacle rules." 2. We sang a really difficult piece that starts with a whole bunch of mini-solos. I'm the third solo. I came in a measure too early. I threw off the EN...

The past few years have been full of me wanting or needing to buy things but not having enough money, buying them but having others pay with a promise to pay back, buying only one of something because I didn't have enough money to stock up, etc. After going a little crazy with the spending in prepar...

I submitted my scholarship application, which I was feeling really good about essay-wise, ONE MINUTE too late (missed a button on the bottom of the screen). I'm in second priority, also known as "HA HA HA HA HA NO MONEY FOR YOU" I was passed over for another solo in choir. I've been in cho...

My parents too have struggled greatly with me being liberal. As I believe I've stated on this board before, one family reunion once devolved into everyone sitting around telling me how wrong and sinful liberals are while my mother sat by and grinned. Something that has worked well for me is that, de...

Ohhhhhhh, maybe that's why my yellow cakes aren't turning out very good. Huh. Didn't think of that.

Aw man, does that mean I'm obligated to try brie if I end up going to France?

I love cheese more than Marduk does even if my palate is not as discerning. No matter what we're making with whatever cheese we have, I will snack on some of it - with the exception of bleus. They're the devil's cheeses.

Funny thing: I'm not on medication for my bipolar disorder because I requested to be put on lithium and the doctor I was seeing refused. Whee! My own rant: EVERYTHING SUCKS My amazing choir director, who is 95% of the reason choir changed from anxiety-inducing torture to a therapeutic hour of my day...

I could do all my homework... or I could do literally nothing.

Yay Black Sheep!

Anxiety has me too. The other night I couldn't stop moving or even shut my eyes; thankfully, Marduk is just down the hall. I crawled into his bed, dozed a bit while he finished his video game, and then he talked me through breathing exercises until I was at least calm enough for exhaustion to take o...

Anyone have one? I'm thinking of getting a Fitbit Charge HR. Done some research but am also interested in personal testimonies.
