Last night, one of my childhood friends made several comments about my sexuality, and I am really bothered by it.
She told me and another friend that we would need to have all of our lesbionic talks (WTF does that even mean?!?!) before another girl got to dinner. 1) Not a lesbian (which has been addressed many times) 2) I am capable of having non same sex conversations. 3) Fuck anyone that has a problem with me being married to a woman, I will not EVER edit my life to make someone else more comfortable with it.
Then, she said that I just cannot decide which team I play for. Yup, I know exactly who I am, even if it doesn't fit into your pretty little box to check of. I am a straight girl that fell for a woman. But regardless of my label, I am married... I committed to be true to that one single person, it doesn't seem like there is anything else to decide. FUCK!
I want to say something, because it is still bothering me, and I was too angry to do so last night. I know she will blow up and it will be a mess.
ETA: She was IN my wedding, so it isn't like she doesn't know what's up!
This makes me extremely ragey on your behalf. You have every right to be bothered, and would be completely justified in cutting her out of your life completely.
Wait? That Lifetime movie with Will Ferrell and Kristen Wiig is a legit drama?? I thought it was a parody or something. Huh. Color me intrigued.
I read that he has always loved the campy, over the top Lifetime movies so he wanted to star in one. They play serious but I think it is still a joke if that makes sense.

shemarie82 Hugs. You don't have to explain yourself or label yourself so that other people feel more comfortable! Your "friend" sounds like an asshole.
No weird at all. I'm an open book, what do you want to know?
I mean, nothing in particular. I just realized that I had never heard much about your story. We need a thread on non-wedding related relationship stuffs. Like, how long have you been together, how did you meet, etc. you know?

This is probably the best description I have found yet.
In the new video, Ferrell and Wiig, who play a successful married couple, take in a pregnant woman (“90210’s” Jessica Lowndes) with the hopes of adopting her unborn child. Their life is turned upside down when they house her in the “high-stakes thriller,” which appears to be a parody of typical Lifetime TV movies.
The trailer compiles all the perfect TV movie elements — a perfect family, a sleepy town, an affair gone wrong, crying, yelling, a lake, a gun, rain, dramatic music and an eerie tagline: “the birth of a plan gone wrong.”

Holy crap! What a terrible friend. I'm so sorry you have to deal with that. Some people just don't understand that not everyone fits into a perfect check box.

Friday is actually my Friday this week! (I work in a restaurant so this never happens)
My BFF is coming to visit this weekend. It'll be our first chance to drink together since she turned 21 so there will be a pitcher of margaritas involved.

I did it. I managed to send her a non bitchy explanation of her being an ass-hat. I am proud of myself for actually doing it, as I generally avoid confrontation.

My stupid (ok not stupid, just up way too damn early) dog woke me up 2 hours earlier than normal. Woke up to finding out one of MIL's golden retrievers has to go to the vet today. He's been sick for a few days and he's progressively getting worse. Hopefully it's nothing too serious :-(
