I am pretty much always awake between 2am-4am.

I have a long weekend looming without enough plans (my 4th of July plans fell through). Tell me your fun weekend plans or talk about anything.

I need recommendations for a moderate NYC sunday brunch for 2 this weekend. I am staying in midtown, but can go somewhere else in Manhattan. My last NYC trip was built almost 100% on recommendations from GT and it was amazing.

So funny that I haven’t been to pride in years, and now I am going to two. In addition to DC pride, I get to go to NYC pride. My company is sending us to march so travel and hotel are covered. Looking forward to it and a weekend away! Tips from anyone who’s been there. We have an organizer so I assume I will get…

Surprised to say, I am having a blast. I got a ton of warnings from my girlfriends (especially when they heard that I would also consider dating men), but they overestimated how delicate I am. Yeah, people are weird and gross and flakey. I have had some great conversations, great dates, met people for hiking, and…

I am going this year for the first time. Tips? Advice? I have only been to pride in a smaller city and it was very different. Not sure what to expect in terms of crowds or getting there via metro.

I don't have anything in particular to share. I am just happier than I've been in years. I'd love to hear some good news or positive updates. I haven't been around much and miss you guys.

Date 1 - fucking shit show

It was weird and horrible. I survived. I feel better now.

My legal ties and financial obligations to my wife are still complicated and will be for potentially years to come. So I was avoiding it. However, my recent preoccupation with a flakey crush/hook up was a wake up call (sorry you had to hear so much about it - I regressed to being 14).

What's up?

I emailed some ideas for continuing to reinvigorate the groupthink community. I’d like to attract newcomers, but keep our culture intact. I sent it to the groupthinkmods email.

A few random kinja tips. Add your own if you have them.

I am so sick of looking for something with no underwire that is cute. I went on a shopping rampage and just bought like 15 bras planning to return what I didn’t like. I found some clear winners. More are on the way, but these were worth every penny. I am a 34 F and these are so comfy.

I’ve been in my new role for 9 months. My department is on it’s 3rd name. My title is about to change for the 4th time. My job changes all the time. So much so ,that I cannot wrap my head around what I actually do or will do in the future. No idea if I am meeting expectations. My head is spinning and I just hope I can…

Instead of cleaning my apartment (it’s pretty clean and I should stop being a freak about it), and meal planning, and shopping...I decided to buy a play station and drink sparkling rose. Must be a mid life crisis. The guy Target asked me if it was a gift, and I was like nope, it’s for me. I now have the Sims game,…
