I love that picture so much! I believe! It's not just you.

If you can get to the part with baby direwolves, that's where it started picking up for me. But I'm a sucker for dogs and their relatives! Good luck!

I tried Game of Thrones about 3x before I could get past the first few minutes of the pilot. I just couldn't see what everyone was so excited about. But once I got through the whole thing, it was all over from there and I was hooked. I say try to watch the whole pilot, and then if you still don't like it, give up. …

Apparently I am a loud gum-chewer. I learned this because a friend, while I was chewing gum loudly, turned around and asked jokingly if I was practicing my gum-smacking skills for when I was going to manage my own major league baseball team. It was funny and made me realize I was doing it so that I could consciously…

I have been trying to find short workouts that I can fit into my crappy schedule, and I found this set on Pinterest the other day: http://backonpointe.tumblr.com/post/24907237515

Me too! I haven't had time to call yet (this is my first weekend off in a LONG time) but I am still paying my copay for bc!

You and me both. My work schedule has squashed this for so long, especially since there's a fair amount of travel. So I must believe that someday we both will be able to!

Register for them!! Worst case, you don't get them. Or . . . buy them. They are not cheap, but having things you really like in your home I think is well worth it, assuming they won't break the bank. You will see/use them every day, and enjoy them all that time.

My only advice: relax! You will be fine and you sound super prepared. Try to get some sleep if you can.

Same here re pomegranate! I will have to try that with the honey one. Thanks for the tip!

Mine has baggage too and has done a similar "shit, I'm getting too attached" reaction (not verbatim but once he actually came close to saying it). I have a tendency to get clingy too, but the extra free time during the stepping back is good in terms of just catching up on your own stuff, and then you will have more…

The pomegranate!! That was when Chobani really won me over. I really like the blueberry and black cherry, and mango.

I have ones with hair/makeup that I like, products or DIY things I want to try (who knows when that will happen), quotes I like, and, in a total carryover from junior high, celebrity ones that are along the lines of "omg she's so pretty." Ha! It's fun and distracting. I also look at the "health and beauty" category…

I joined Pinterest one night when I was totally doing an anxiety spiral about my bf and just wanted something else to focus on. I had never been on before and it was great. There is a TON of distracting stuff to poke around on, and making boards is fun, and it's exactly the perfect combo of distracting in a fun way…

I switched because, on a lark, I had tried another repairwear product and REALLY liked it. (It was this one http://www.sephora.com/repairwear-laser-focus-wrinkle-uv-damage-corrector-P268300?skuId=1271782 ). So I decided to try the eye cream in that line too.

My two cents (fwiw I am 31 and disclaimer, I didn't read the skincare article):

Agreed with the other posters - you truly do deserve better. You seem like a really great, smart, caring guy and you deserve someone who sees that (and more) and feels lucky to have found you.

I'm willing to make a new post for you to reply to, though I don't know that it will help with the timing out issues. Maybe type everything out in a separate document, like a plain text file, and then copy/paste into a reply?

Agreed! Actually I always thought crabs looked like terrifying ocean spiders and lobsters looked like terrifying ocean scorpions. Not sure which is worse! I like both but I have to almost consciously suppress the thoughts of, "I'm basically eating an insect that scares me" the whole time. Shudder.

Method makes wood cleaners called Wood for Good. Maybe those?
