I seriously have no idea how I’m going to survive the oppressive humidity when we move back east next year. Yeesh.

Yep, same here. We’re heading for greener (and cheaper!) pastures next summer. I can’t even begin to tolerate this real estate climate with the insane commutes and crappy jobs.

I’m just off tonight. Completely, totally off. Missed this thread until now, am cranky, and keep dealing with issues and procrastination. Anyone else have any tips for changing your mood? I feel stuck (job, grad school ish, etc.).

Ellie, I’m so so sorry you are dealing with this. As an adult who has food allergies that were diagnosed in adulthood, I totally understand what you are going through. It is traumatizing and life-changing and really, truly sucks. I have had to restructure my life to try and accommodate this problem, and have found…

Let’s be honest this is how we all are. I have been straight COVETING Leslie Jones’ getup from this past weekend. Actually sent my hubs on a wild goose chase for a patriotic jumper to show my spirit (only evident during the Summer Olympics for some reason!)

Thank you! Glad it worked out for you guys - for our peace of mind, it probably makes more sense to just drive them. I’m hoping our timelines align and that we are able to that out.

My bff just read this book and she swears by it: The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up. She says that it has helped her figure out what she needs to keep and get rid of and is aiding her on her path of organization and feng shui.

Awwww yeah he’s a cutie but so little! I’m the same way too - hubs is all “what I don’t look at other women when I’m taken” which should reassure me but made me feel a twinge of guilt instead. I pacified myself by hearing about old athletic crushes and allowing him to tease me about former Lochte-Obsession.

Honestly that’s mostly why I’m so happy my husband’s cold didn’t pass to me. That and the fact that being sick in the summer is absolutely miserable and even worse than being sick in the winter.

LOL not surprised. I used to have a friend who went to school with him and she said that he was nice but just not all there....Dumb and harmless is fine so long as he isn’t a jerk.

So precious - definitely not helping my baby fever <3

Not an attorney but know plenty of them. Good luck with studying and prep!

I really truly hope things work out for you! That sounds pretty frustrating to say the least. Maybe another avenue will open up so you can give her feedback she deserves without outing yourself.

Awww that’s wonderful. Maybe you can hit the gym or do something to take your mind off of things? That’s awesome, I’m going to cross my fingers for you!

I was like that too and I had to let it go because my husband convinced me that he’s perfect. Took some time to adjust, but as long as the guy gives you every reason to believe and trust him, please do. <3

I had a friend in middle school who was obsessed with him. And I think my parents’ neighbors might be related to him too. #weirdconnections

I’m proud of you for taking your SSRIs - I need to do the same but haven’t had the guts since my last batch acted up on me.

Anyone want to do an Olympic crush (or #shamecrush) thread?

swamped with studying and writing my SOP (and procrastinating on that as well). Plus avoiding prep for a few interviews I have later this week (jobs, not school related). I should be happy I guess but I feel so blah about it. At least I’m not teaching in a few weeks :)

I can’t fly them - I won’t fly them unless they’re in the cabin and both are too big unless we charter/fly private which isn’t terribly realistic for next year. Right now it’s either pet movers or somehow drive them out which may not synch up with our schedules because I may have to move out there ahead of my husband.…
