What the hell is up with people telling me to feed my puppy? Why does everyone want her to be so friggen fat? Its a Malinois. WTF. Stop.
At a show in November my mom overheard someone say "He's a nice dog, but too skinny".

No, he's not skinny. He's in fantastic condition and isn't physically mature yet.

I have no idea why people are so intent on fattening up puppies.

I got my nails done (gel/shellac) twice so that my nails would have a chance to grow out some and not split/shatter at the ends like they were doing. They have been GREAT and beautiful and long for like 2 weeks and all of a sudden in the course of 3 days or so, 4 of them have broken off in various places/degrees of terribleness. One of them is only half-way off and it is SUPER close to my finger and I don't even know what to do with it! THIS SUCKS!

Now that Josefina is 4 1/2, so she is filling out a little and people don't make as many comments about her weight as I used to get. But she she was younger ... I even got people threaten to call the authorities on me because they claimed I didn't feed my dog lol.

I'm so frustrated by my computer. It will not hold a steady internet connection. Simply refuses, unless it is downstairs right next to the modem and router. And even then it's spotty. Every other device in the house handles just fine. 4 PS4s, 3 other computers, XBox360, PS3....everything. But MY computer? Nope.


GRRRRR

I think I remember you mentioning you were on Rx meds, and I don't know if you can't take certain vitamins but a hair skin and nails vite might help you, I know it helped me.

I know that I've put some weight on recently, but was doing my best to ignore it. I leaned forward to cut my nails today and my belly squished uncomfortably. There's your sign. :rolleyes:

Hello, more exercise

Jeromy invited me to go out with him and a couple of his friends/coworkers tonight. I really want to see him, because we haven't gotten much time together lately, but I don't think I'm going to go. One, they're going bar hopping downtown, and I don't really drink or like the bar scene all that much. But the main reason is that he's going with a married man and a married woman who are having an affair with each other. I've met the guy's wife (and young son :() They're having problems, okay, I get that. But I don't think cheating is ever the answer and it makes me really uncomfortable. I explained that to Jeromy and he understood, but also defended his own friendship with them which was unnecessary, I don't think less of him for continuing the friendships or anything, but said "if [my good friend] did something stupid, would you cut off contact?" The honest answer is no, I wouldn't despite my strong feelings about it, BUT that's also *my friend.* I'm not saying that makes it better of course, but I've only hung out with the guy a couple of times, and I've never met the woman, so it's a lot harder to try to see it from their perspective.

I guess I'm just rambling. I think my vent is that I want to see my boyfriend tonight, but the situation sucks so I won't.

LOL you're not asking him to cut off contact, you're just telling him it makes you uncomfortable to be an active participant in his friend's something stupid/affair. The whole thing really sucks.

FWIW I wouldn't go either, it would be waaaaaayyyyy too uncomfortable.

Yeah, I wouldn't go either. I would also tell my cheating friend they had 48hrs to tell their significant other or I would ..but I'm just very uncool with any of that kind of behavior.

Yeah, I mean, he was totally understanding about how I feel about it. He and the guy go way back and granted I don't know the details of his relationship with his wife. Still, it's ****. Deal with your issues. Don't lie to your partner. If it's not working, end it. I know that isn't always easy... but lying and sneaking around on your partner is unforgivable, IMO.

I ended up not going. Waaaay too uncomfortable for me. I'll see him this weekend instead.

*sigh* Haven't been able to talk with Michael since Saturday. He *just* had a chance to call me - and literally two minutes into the conversation got called away again. God bless it.

On the bright side, in that two minutes he was able to confirm his graduation date will indeed be the end of next month. One step closer.

Oh my god.

I took my friend's girlfriend out to a party thing, my friend couldn't go, but I promised I would take care of her. I lost her at one point and went looking for her, and she was in bed with (another friend) of mine. I told her to tell him. She did not. I told him. Guess who he believed? That was the end of THAT friendship...

Pfft, people.

That's why I don't involve myself in my friend's relationships. I have this one guy friend who is a hopeless player and womanizer ... I don't get involved in that, my or anything else pertaining to relationships because I have had bad experiences with that in the past.

Just listened to an hour and a half rant from BeAu about how much he misses Leland, and how stupid it is that people tell him to get over it, because Leland wasn't his biologically. There's nothing quite like parenting a kid, having him taken away because his mother is bitter and spiteful, and then people telling you to get over it, it shouldn't affect you, because it wasn't "yours" anyway. I get that.

But honestly, there ISN'T anything we can do about it. Just nothing. She was a liar, a cheat, and made false promises...to you and him. But there's no resolution. It just trails off into nothing, and it sucks to accept.

It is like talking to a wall. There is nothing either of us can do.

Not saying that Paviche should have gone with them or anything. . .
But is this really something you're actively participating in if you hang with them? Is it that bad? I'm sure they're not flaunting it.

It seems silly for someone else's bad choices to be that much of a problem to me. Who knows, maybe if I have some friends having an affair I'll change my mind. For now I just can't see that changing your morals.
