FFFC: We just got to a get-together with all my husband's extended family and I'm already hiding in the bathroom. Sometimes they are just too much.
That's how I am with my H family. Especially his maternal grandmother. We see her every few months and everytime we leave I am exhausted and ready for a vacation.
Also, on the '90s theme, I totally owned a pair of pants like this (I think they were khaki or green...or maybe both??) Too cool for school... Delia's catalog for lyfe.
Okay that covers most of my poor wardrobe choices.... Flame away!
On a related note, I saw something on FB this morning that Jnco's are coming back.
This is so dumb, but now I am annoyed at the title of the FFFC as "What, no FFFC yet?" I mean, I totally get that it was considered "late" but now there is one, it's right there!!!

Based on the fact that I found some suspiciously current looking photos while searching for the actual pants I owned, I do not doubt it.
I think my friend and I have late standoffs. That is, she's always late, so I usually try to arrive 15 minutes late so as to be there when she gets there. But I think this results in her thinking that I am the late one, because she won't admit that she is chronically late.
Okay per my early FFFC during movie night last night, I owned far too many pairs of these:
and these:
and even some kind of like these: (hangs head in shame)
and wore them far past when I really should have.

I probably need a hobby.
Or I guess I could go back to work.
Work?
::looks around:: I thought this was just where I sat and chatted while occasionally doing something else until 6pm.
I haven't been home in 3 weeks due to back to back to back work trips.... this weekend I get to visit my SIL in the city where I was for work this week. I'm keeping the rental car, and I'm charging work for it. I think I deserve it after being gone for 3 weeks.
Usually if you have a rental car for the full week it is cheaper than 5 days. We always took the full week when I use to travel for work. FFFC: DH and I met online and I drove my work rental to our first date incase he was a weirdo.

Welp, I don't know to fix it. I would if I could, the last thing I want to do is cause anybody undue stress haha.

I also know they won't care, they are super flexible and generous, and usually feel bad about making us travel so much. I just didn't get it approved first (I probably should have)

GENIUS. That's an awesomely hilarious story to tell.

My FFFC is inspired by Sparkly. I bought overall shorts at the end of summer last year and they are SOOO COMFY. I cannot wait until it's warm enough to wear them again.

We always traveled Monday-late Thursday night so instead of dropping it off Friday and picking one up Saturday we just kept them. I only had the rental when DH and I went on that date because I picked it up earlier in the day and had to leave town on Monday.
Perpetually late people irritate me. Every so often I get it- things happen.
If I'm making the effort to make our appointments on time, but you're chronically showing up late, it tells me that you have no respect whatsoever for me and my time.
My co-worker is 6-10 minutes late EVERY.FUCKING.DAY. It drives me insane.
When that happened with my husband (we commute together, I drop him off and then go to my office), his boss just changed his start time by fifteen minutes. I swear we weren't trying to be late, it was a series of bad accidents on our major routes.
But at least he's not late much anymore (and he always makes up the time).
FFFC: When a customer pulls up to my window that I don't like or it's like 4:59, oh how they love to do that, as soon as they turn away, I'll stick my tongue out at them or make an ugly face.

I didn't mean to make you feel bad about your title. I know I was being dumb.

What if he wanted to kill you. he would've stuff your body in the rental. rentals offer very little protection.
I didn't even think of that! I thought she just meant to have a different looking car so that he couldn't stalk her based on her actual car.
I farted under the covers last night and my husband didn't know. When he went to pull the covers up, it stunk so bad, he had to leave the room. He said that I am the epitome of "Silent but Deadly"
Me too but I blamed it on the dog that was under the covers too. Thank god for puppies!

His references checked out (we actually had a lot of mutual friends) and we met at a well lit restaurant and only had dinner. I wasn't too worried about ending up in the river in a rental car.

Newp. This is a bad idea.
That wouldn't fly in my office. I would require you to pay it back (and it wouldn't have been allowed to be charged in the first place because no charges on company card if there is personal time mixed in with business time), and it could potentially cost the department the use of a departmental card due to unauthorized charges.

My confession isn't even really good.
I am a box checker on FF. I don't try to symptom spot per se, I just check all the boxes. I find it interesting (and sanity-restoring) to look and say oh, hey - I was gassy three days in a row - what was I eating? Then I check MFP (or my calendar if I have several high-stress days) and it puts things together for me. I also use it to track the pills and stuff I'm taking.
But I don't link my chart because I'm embarrassed by all the check boxes and know someone will think I'm a loon. I mean, more than usual.

2nd FFFC: MH and I met online as well. For the first 6 months I told most people that we met through a mutual friend because I felt like there was this negative stigma about online dating. Eventually I was like fuck it and told everyone we met online. I mean, after college I worked at an all female program (WIC), I don't go to church, and was tired of meeting guys at the bar (that all ended up being douches) - so where was I supposed to meet someone?
TL;DR - I used to be embarassed that I met MH online, but now I'm glad that the stigma is decreasing/it's becoming more acceptable.
