I am drinking because this is the first time in my life I have stayed the night alone. Granted, DS is here, but I doubt he will help if an emergency occurs. I'm a big baby.

I hate staying alone. When I was single, I would lock myself in my bedroom at night when the kids went to their dad's house. I am a wuss.
Like 5 years ago for NYE we day drank at our friends' place while getting ready to go out for a fancy bar extravaganza. I was pretty drunk before leaving and didn't want to wear heels, so I wore my Uggs slippers all night. With my sequin party dress.
In HS, my friend said we should have a "party" (less than ten people) in her unfinished house. The walls and roof were up but just wood, no drywall or anything. Well, we had recently discovered these blue slurpees. Our friend had to go to the bathroom, so she told her to go pee in the yard because there was clearly no toilet. Well, that dumbass shit in the front yard and it was bright blue. We found it the next morning during clean-up. She didn't claim it but we knew. WE KNEW.

Apparently I get a little redneck when drinking. While out on the town for my bachelorette party we were waiting in line to get into a bar. I had a 30 minute conversation with these random guys about hunting and how I bet I was a better shot than them. I also went around the whole night with a sash that said bride to be on the front and buy me shots on the back. I ound out that I was also very fond of yelling "I'm getting married bitches! Buy me shots!" Needless to say I was carried home like a sack of taters and woke up feeling very shitty the next day.

Really I miss the late nights dh would be at school from 6-11.
I haven't gone through stranger danger. Then again no one ever comes to see my son and no one ever takes him
I've just hit a mental block with all this math homework. I am so tired from trying to stay up late after class to do the work and then be up most the night with ds. I can't get any of the actual working the numbers pArt out right even though o do the steps correctly. I need a nap so bad.
But since dh has had ds for two weeks at nights on his own with no help or way to take off he's finally get all the times I'd ask for help and a break or a nap and he'd just be all high and mighty an say no.
Thank you for pointing out that thread. Posts like that on an announcement would have not been tolerated on TD.
And now that I finally looked at the announcements, I just noticed the britax recall. Sorry ladies for the double post. I only log in via the app and my announcements are hidden.
Ugh, I'm sorry This sounds like exactly what my parents would do. EXACTLY. except they're not too old to travel... they just have a fear of my sister and do whatever they can to please her. Do you think you would be up for talking to your parents about how this makes you feel? Maybe they don't realise they're doing this (in my case, they think i'm the easy-going daughter and therefore they don't try...)? Empathy hugs for sure
It's actually my husband's grandparents, but his parents are generally the source of it. I have talked to DH in the past about it, and he refuses to talk to his parents. That is how things have been his whole life and he has just learned to live with it. So far my children are too young to notice, but soon they are going to notice it too and that's not cool.
Ooops sorry, I had square eyes from work and didn't read properly. That double sucks when you can't do anything about the situation. But I would be very disappointed as well
Someone tell me a funny drinking story from your past to get my mind off of staying alone.
Sorry, bit late, it was night night time here But in case you're still in need:
One time I co-organized a conference during my Bachelor degree. It was the final evening and we had an after party. I was dating some self-righteous pretentious a-hole at the time and he came to the party as well. I said I wouldn't drink much because I had a French exam the next day and hadn't studied. Low and behold, he tops up all my drinks with vodka and lime all night and I somehow didn't taste it. I got raging drunk and he took me home without even waiting for my flatmate (it was a dark road back to our dorm so that was not cool at all) and tried to sleep with me. I said I didn't want to and he got pissed off and stormed out of the room into the hall of the dorm. I shouted after him (half naked) FINE! YOU WEREN'T VERY GOOD ANYWAY!
The next day I had that exam at 9am, my roommate was super pissed at me for about a minute until she realized I had no idea what had happened (first and only time in my life) and we stumbled to the exam. I had to leave 1 hour early to throw up... we got the exam results back and had scored the 2 highest in the course. We don't know how the hell it happened.
Anyone wish they could dismiss some of the stickies at the top? 6 is excessive.
Big brother thread really?
Lol I read the big brother thread MOTN feeding. I've caught only a few episodes this year but I know everything because of that thread!
I get that it's popular, but it's a parenting thread. Sticky it to the parenting board, let people know it's there if you *really * want to then people can find it from there. Or have a way that people can dismiss the threads and not have to see then anymore.

Bumping a dead post just because I was doing my usual complaints search and I saw this.
The big brother thread has been left stickied at the request of the loss and infertility communities so they don't have to even open parenting and see threads about kids to access it.
We weren't anticipating a recall, needing to make an announcement about not posting porn, and our monthly update thread all in the same day. We do try to keep the announced threads to a minimum.

It is what it is and I will still find an excessive amount annoying, but that is why I post it here nonchalantly and not blast it everywhere. You run the forum and I don't and it's not a huge deal just irksome.

FWIW I find them as annoying as you, and a "dismiss" feature is on my request list for my next call with the proboards CEO (Thursday)
