I have one: I feel extremely self conscious about the fact that I have not traveled a lot. I know that it is ridiculous, but all my friends and family members have traveled extensively and they keep talking about it all the time. Stupid.
I used to feel like that about education before I got my degree.
Being a PW - I should pack for out weekend trip, but this means going downstairs where the fridge is and I've been eating all the carbs today (and starting my period. Coinkikideeence?)
One of my coworker's found out today that her daughter is having a girl. I got jealous when she announced the news.
Also, many days I wish we hadn't gotten our dog. I do love him, but he's so needy sometimes and I'm afraid to ever really let he and Z interact. I get so anxious when H lets Z pet him. I've read too many stories of dogs attacking kids that it terrifies me.

@chitownsully, how strange! I'm sorry you didn't get your relaxing outing Go you for walking out. I would have sat there and then felt obligated to tip.

Not sure where to put this but it feels like a confession. I've got baby fever BAD. So insane considering my DD doesn't sleep (much) and I feel like our world is upside down right now. I wish I could have 10 babies.
I guess I've finally forgotten what it was like to have a med free birth. Since I thought that had scarred me for life. But I have the copper insert so no babies here.

What kind of dog is it?
He's a rescue that we've had for 8 years. Best we can tell is border collie with take your guess mixed in. He's very sweet and hasn't shown aggression yet towards Z. He can snap at people if he's bothered when he's sleeping.

My confession. I skipped out on work today for a quick pedicure (not the confession). It has quite literally been months since my last pedicure. So I made an appointment, filled up my travel mug with coffee and set off for a relaxing hour with just me, my coffee and someone massaging my feet. I get there, pick out my color and wait for my nail technician to be ready. This is my first time seeing this technician.
First, she walks up to me, says hi, and walks away. Umm, okay. The person working the front desk had to casually remind the technician that she needs to inform me that she's ready for me (you know, instead of just walking by and saying hi). So I go back, sit down and put my feet in FREEZING cold water. So I kindly asked her to refill with warm water. She obliges. She then proceeds to quickly scrub my feet. Remember, it has been months since my last pedicure, my feet needed more than just a quick touch-up. After only kind-of scrubbing my feet she gives me the shortest foot / leg massage I've ever had with a pedicure. So I asked her if she could please continue for a little bit longer. I'm finally out sans baby and I just want to relax.
Well, she starts, I don't know, like tickling my feet. I have NEVER had this type of massage in my life. It was bizarre! So I pulled my feet away, and she looked shocked. I literally looked at her and said, "that was weird." Her response was "I learned this in school." At that point I got up and left. I literally walked out of a pedicure.
I know, first world problems, yadda yadda. I just wanted a relaxing massage. I talked to the girl working the front desk and apparently they had a similar complaint yesterday. I ended up seeing one of the "top technicians" at the same place and the experience was 100% better. I've been to this place before and they have been AWESOME. This girl was just... ugh.

emejay's travel post and mrsb1008's dog remind me of something I think all the time and then feel like a shitty person for thinking. I LOVE my dogs and would never take back rescuing them, but I sometimes wish we didn't get them when we did. We spent all our kid free years where we could have (and would have) traveled the world not doing it because of the 3 dogs. I'm pretty resentful about it sometimes.
FFTC: swbrigadoon's FB post about moving made me cry big ugly tears. Moving is so sad even when it's happy and I'm sure I will feel the same way leaving here when the time comes (even though the thought of it makes me want to make out with the world right now).
UO: I don't mind when strangers touch my baby. Nothing invasive or crazy, but I just don't see what the big deal is. 99% of the time it's an older lady wiggling his toe or booping him on the nose and saying how cute he is.
UO: I don't like the current GTKY. I would be hurt/humiliated if MH shared disgusting things I did.
+1. If my husband was sharing things like that about me online I would be really hurt, regardless if he would say it to my face or not.
I feel like most of what people wrote is just silly things. Like I'm the person who leaves cups all over my nightstand. I wouldn't care at all if MH told people that. I didn't read through the whole thread yet so maybe there are some juicier ones I'm missing.

UO: I can't imagine letting my high school student get a giant tattoo especially in a very visible location (calf, sleeve, etc). It blows my mind that some of my parents OK this nonsense.
FWIW, I am NOT anti-tattoo for adults. MH has 2 and I've always wanted one but keep chickening out.
I may be the least professional person in my office. I swear I cannot sit normally in my chair for more than a few minutes. Cross-legged, sideways, backwards kneeling on the chair, leaned forward on the desk (elbows, chin, whatever), slid down until my butt hangs off the front... almost never just butt on seat, feet on floor, back against the back of the chair.
