Re: Happy Days in Random Chatter 10
Apparently a package from Amazon is coming today. Neither my husband or I ordered anything from Amazon, neither of us have a birthday soon either, and no one has told us to expect a package. Update: The package has arrived! Turns out it is an Easter gift from my husband's parents, one of the big ba...

Re: Rant of the Day
It bugs me when teachers don't want to learn new things. I mean, really.

Van Goff's answer about nutrition (http://theboard.byu.edu/questions/89179/) has a photo of one of my very favorite kids' series, Frog and Toad! I <3 Frog and Toad, and the "Will Power" story is my very, very favorite.

Re: get TRPers out of my feed
Geeeeez. I had never heard of this phenomenon until this question, then saw it again today on this 538 article: https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/dissecting-trumps-most-rabid-online-following/. Sounds like a pretty craptastic worldview and my life has not in any way been enriched by learning of i...

Re: Anyone ever been a contractor?
I did some freelance writing for awhile and my aunt has done some contract-based copyediting. You might already be aware of this, but when someone gives you a number take into account how much your taxes will be--with a "normal" job the employer pays part of your income taxes and you pay t...

Re: Physical/spiritual connection
Eh, people have always used metaphors to deal with difficult concepts. I don't buy into this one, but I don't think it's any more ludicrous than other ways people use brain/computer metaphors.

Re: Mental illness is dumber
I've been incredibly anxious for almost two weeks now. Three doctor's visits. Three new prescriptions, plus referrals to a counselor and a psychiatrist, and the doctor really wanted me to check myself into the hospital. I've only attended two class, one today and one Tuesday, since the start of the...

Re: What makes you happy today?
I've had, not a bad week per se, but a very long one. So today before I got home from work, Marx cleaned the bathroom, did the dishes, washed the sheets, and walked the dogs. My 12-year-old self would find it very strange that my current self finds that so romantic, but there you have it!

Re: Missionary romances
I was introduced to the Board through a girl I met online when I was in high school. We talked all the time for a year or two...mostly about boys... Anyway, we didn't talk as much by the time we were in college, but we became facebook friends and six months or so after she got back from her mission,...

Re: Mental illness is dumber
I've been having a rough week or two, mental health wise, and this morning I woke up with the beginnings of a migraine. Took this new medicine I've just been prescribed. Pain is gone, but I can't tell if the dopiness and ill-ease I feel now are post-migraine symptoms or just the continuance of the s...

Feeling like an adult
http://theboard.byu.edu/questions/88944/ I went off to college in a new state at 18 and moved across the world for two years from 21-23, but I can pinpoint the beginning of my real, actual adult life to a two-week period of time when I was 24. I'm sure I felt like an adult at various points before t...

Sometimes, when I have had a glass or two of red wine, I actually get tears in my eyes for how much I adore my honors sophomore class.

Re: Therapy is dumb.
After seeing Tally M.'s recommendation and the realization that it would be money well-spent, I signed up for Talkspace and I LOVE IT. I feel like I really lucked out finding someone who is a Utah native (checks out, she has the bangs) but is non-LDS and has a neutral viewpoint towards it, while ha...
