so we bought two cases of wine in the finger lakes this past weekend... I am pretty sure we have already finished half a case already...should have bought three
mazzola23 my husband just informed me that when Cobain committed suicide my MIL basically put DH on suicide watch because he was a huge Nirvana fan. He said she even sat him down and asked him if he was thinking about hurting himself. *MIL is crazy, obvs*
So this just happened.. I took my best friend out for a birthday dinner (her birthday was a few days ago). We had dinner, a couple drinks, decided to come back to my house. She'd mentioned that her period was a couple days late. (She's tentatively dating/sleeping with her ex fiance - bad, fucked up situation - and definitely TTA.) I told her I had a bag of dollar store cheapie HPTs under my sink, why not set her mind at ease? I sat with her and watched the test. 2 lines, right away. She was stunned and flustered and left right away, saying she had to be alone. I ugly cried into H's shirt for 10 minutes. Now I'm drinking vodka. I feel like I'm dreaming. I know unwanted pregnancy is a terrible thing and I know I'm fucking selfish and horrible for feeling anything other than concern for her predicament right now, and I told her I love her and will support her 100% no matter what she chooses, but fuck. To see that second, unwanted line on the very same tests I stared at and prayed over was - fuck. Sorry, I'm drunk-ish and AW-ing. TL;DR - BFF is pregnant and doesn't want to be; I'm in shock and drinking?
Hugs for you, cabgirl. I'd feel the same way - you are doing the right thing by supporting your friend, but that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt. Lots of hugs.

Thanks guys. I didn't mean to kill the drinking thread. I hope I didn't! I'm drinking all the vodka tonight. I have to work tomorrow, but not til 10:30.

Haha...oh MIL! I got in trouble that weekend for hiding gum in my room (long story, I lived with CRAZY father and stepmother) and as my father was handing down my punishment he told me he didn't want me to turn out like that Kurt Cobain guy who just killed himself. Mind you- the jerk found gum in my room, not drugs.
I REALLY did not think that HPT was going to be positive. She's told me many times that her period was "late," in spite of my explanations of how cycles work and how ovulation comes late, not your actual period. And how cycles being varying lengths =/= pregnant. I fully expected a negative HPT and a night of drinking. This is surreal.

Gah, I'm mobile and stuck in the box! Anyway my original point was: Clearly gum=drugs, duh!
