goldenlove3 No we have not!!! I'm so happy he ends up wth Robin but I feel like they spent yeeeeeears setting things up and then blew through their ending in one episode. That pissed me off. I think it deserves more time than that. How about you??
Does this need spoilers? lol
So I seem to go back and forth. I originally HATED it. I loved Tracy and Ted together and was so mad that they brought her in and made us fall in love with her, only to kill her off at the end. Looking back, there were so many signs throughout the show that she was going to die, but I was in denial and thought they gave us the whole build up with Robin as a way to show how much he loved Tracy. Like this was the girl who got him over Robin. BUT the more I thought about it and re-watched the show, it made sense that he ended up with Robin and I made peace with it. Then we watched it again now and I feel like she treats Ted like shit, takes him for granted and breaks his heart repeatedly. I don't think she deserved him. So I'm back to hating it again.
goldenlove3 I did love Tracy, but I feel like he never really got over Robin, just that he made peace with his unresolved feelings and moved forward. How come they never say how Tracy or her ex died?! Stuff like that bothers me so much! Lol. So the scene in Central Park with Robin and the necklace, I feel like their story should have kept going from that point.. I didn't believe that two people who had those feelings in that moment would've let it go so easily.
So I just tried buying something for my gift exchange person but the online application doesn't seem to be finalizing my order. So I kept "checking out"... Like 5 times.
Gift person, you may end up with like 10 of the same thing.

Guuuys.. I'm meeting with someone later this afternoon to talk about a job opening in his group. I'm freaking out a little. BUT if the job ends up being what it sounds like, it is exactly what I need right now. Low stress, pretty easy and gets away from all the things I hate about this job. It's just.. scary that it might happen this quickly. I've only been back for a little over a month and just got back into the swing of things. This is going to majorly screw over my manager too, but I can't worry about that too much since he has job openings that he hasn't filled in probably a year now.

Can I join in on the HIMYM talk goldenlove3 and kleigh? I only watched it once back when I was on maternity leave with DS1. I loved the show, but I'm not sure how I feel about the ending. I also didn't love how Robin treated Ted and honestly thought Robin and Barney were made for each other.

goldenlove3, this is easier said than done, I know, but try to only worry about yourself. You need to do whats best for you/your family. Good luck, I hope this works out for you!!

kleigh (and jubilantsquirrel) Yea, I was not a fan of the last season and how rushed it all felt. I was seriously disappointed in the writing. Like how can they do such a good job making connections seasons apart, but we're seriously supposed to think Lily wasn't drunk during that whole season? She did some stupid shit and even made comments about the drinking. They could have done better.
Of course jubilantsquirrel ! See maybe it's that Robin reminds me of myself lol. Not that I'm like "oh all the boys want me and I turn them away"... But I have an ex with whom our relationship (what? Grammar?) was very much like Robin and Ted. I loved him VERY much but, reasons... And we are still very good friends to this day.. So I feel like I see her and go, no she really did love him, but reasons. Like maybe she just thought she couldn't be as much to him as he was to her. Anyway, ramblings of a lazy worker bee.

Thanks everyone! I'm trying not to get ahead of myself but it'll be a nice change of pace. I'm literally dealing with stupid at this very minute so that makes it easier to think about leaving.

kleigh, I can see that. There were definitely times that I loved Robin and Ted together. And I agree goldenlove3 that the final season felt rushed. I binge watched the entire series and still felt that way.

Ugh, stupid people at work is the story of my life. I send an email specifically asking for X and then get a response saying "please confirm if you want X or Y". Like, what part of the send me X don't you understand?!
I realize that makes no sense, just imagine me doing this as I read the email:

Yes! Currently binging on HIMYM and I just started season 7!
My doctor called me back (about my hip). He wants to up my meds again (we were trying to wean me off) and get me in to see him this month rather than my scheduled appointment in July.
Can they do a steroid injection straight into the joint after aspirating it? Is that even a thing? I may have made that up. I'm so sorry. I can't imagine how sick and tired you are if dealing with it.

Oh tgrimes1980, I'm sorry! You guys just can't catch a break! I really hope this clears up quickly and it's the last illness in your household for a long time.

So the guy I met with pretty much said that this job would probably be perfect for me with my new baby. No stress, good work/life balance, good manager and I get to work in my own bubble instead of dealing with all the other groups I have to work with now. I'm going to email the hiring manager on Monday just to give myself the weekend to think about it, but I will probably be applying!
Funny because I found out about this while I was out on my walk yesterday!
We got an email from the bride and groom of the wedding this weekend. It was a warning that their ceremony will be outside, on a rooftop patio, and it will be raining and 40deg. Awesome.
So I just had to buy a new black blazer to go with my dress to keep warm!
Im now sitting in my running car with E because she fell asleep and it's pouring outside. I don't want to wake her up by bringing her inside. I have only 1 snack left.

hangry Is the patio covered?? That is going to be interesting. H's cousin had an outdoor wedding and we had the leftovers from a big hurricane come up this way. It was POURING rain all week and the ground under the tent was still soaked so tables/chairs were sinking. But at that point you just take your heals off and deal with it. We still had a blast!
