I own a pole dancing pole and when I get a house one day I'll have a room in it just to dance. I took pole dancing classes across 5 years, until the studio closed. I bought the pole from the owner. It was "my" pole and I wish I could take it out of my sister's garage and put it up right now. Unfortunately, basement apartments do not have the ceilings for 12 foot poles.

I have a friend that took pole dancing classes and got in great shape. The moves she can do on that thing are crazy and her core muscles are solid. For some reason I think I would be embarrassed to even go to a class.

It's so fun & it's the only fitness regime I ever stuck to. When I was full time into it I had the most amazing arms & back. The only problem was the bruising. I swear my dad (who still doesn't know I did this) must have thought that DH (who was my bf at the time) was beating me, but on my legs and arms.
Eta: I'm not trying to make light of domestic abuse in anyway, it's just how I interpreted my dad's looks when he saw my black & blues.

I lived in another borough in NYC til I was 10. My confession is that whenever I happen to be in a neighborhood near my old house in that borough, I drive by to look at the house. #creeper.

I've done this and took drive by pics to send to my sisters. #normaltome #hifellowcreeper FFFC: I've never used a hashtag before and I'm feeling awkward and self conscious about it.
I feel like mrsmonogrammed here (hehe), but I saw this dress on zulily yesterday and had to order it for DD's birthday. It won't even be a fancy party, probably just a BBQ at home. But holy heck dress you are so cute and I needed and excuse!

Omg need that dress!! Lol;) Your DD is going to be so adorable!
Every time I pump, I hear the motor say different things. Sometimes it says, 'gimme your milk', 'you da man', or 'what's up?' Soooo..... yeah. My breast pump talks to me. No biggie. Pumpers, listen next time and I promise you it will sound like it's talking.
Congrats, @hazeldublin !!!!
As I imagined my pump noises becoming more and more negative getting closer to my six-month pumping goal, I realized it was time for me to stop But yeah, totally could hear it too, especially when I was at work and there wasn't much background noise.
I have never trimmed DS' fingernails. I've made DH do it every single time since we brought him home from the hospital. DH cut one of the fingers early on, which lead to a solid 20 minutes of bouncing and shushing and applying pressure, and I'm convinced I'll basically amputate a finger if I ever try. To be fair, we have a really awesome system going now of me holding him while DH does his fingers, so why mess with a good system, right?
Haha, maybe I'm just better off with gifs? #stillawkward
I know way back when, there was a discussion about how the word "gif" is pronounced. Either a hard g sound, or a soft g sound. My confession is I always pronounce it in my head by saying the separate letters - so when I see it, I say G-I-F. Always and forever. Can't stop.

I have never trimmed M's fingernails either. I tried a few times when he was a newborn and was too chicken shit. MIL does it because H was afraid, too.

FFFC, I curse too much on here, too, I think.
DH just (as in lastnight) cut our three year old's nails for the first time. No worries....

I try not to listen, because then I know I won't be able to un-hear whatever it is 'saying'.

I am going to leave work early to get a manicure, I am undecided if I am going to get a pedicure at the same time because I would have to leave that much earlier.
I just paid a deposit to put us on the list for a litter of puppies that will be born at the end of tbe summer and ready to come home in September. I haven't told DH yet.
I may have already confessed this but...I'm getting two separate photo shoots of LO for Easter because I couldn't decide between photographers. One is a close friend and is using live animals but the oher does gorgeous magazine worthy pictures....
Joolschweets, I know very little about the American electoral system besides what I've seen on tv and in the news but I don't feel guilty at all Ilm just not interested in the complexities of politics.

I'm considering quitting BF cold turkey so that I can do a project at work. I hate my job right now and I think a lot of it is the confinement to the office. If I quite BF, I could do hands-on work again.
I'm scared I'll still hate my job afterwards and then will have ruined BF for no reason. Also scared if I keep hating my job I'll continue to be unhappy even when I'm not at work solely because I dread going to work and feel unaccomplished after work.

What does this mean? One pup or the whole litter?
Oh good god NO! As appealing as this sounds in some twisted, deluded corner of my brain...
...one will be more than enough. We have reserved first pick from their next litter for whichever ONE puppy we want.
My FFFC: I basically just had to read a kids guide to the US electoral system b/c I feel like I have zero understanding of what's going on. I read the parenting "Canadians ask dumb questions about US politics" thread & was still about 15 steps behind, so I resorted to the BBC's 'US politics for dummies'.
I'm usually pretty politically aware but GDI, I feel like someone needs to draw me a picture or something on this one.
I'm American AND have a law degree and sometimes still feel like I need a diagram. It's convoluted as fuck.
Well shit, if you curse too much then I'm an asshole.
Same. I would actually curse more often, but I know people are sensitive about that stuff. Sometimes it can't be helped, though.
Wait, I don't understand.. are you saying that you don't swear as much as you feel inclined to just because other adults might not like it? I am inclined to say, "Fuck those other adults!" Not really, but perhaps if someone is so sensitive to another persons choice of word use that it bothers them when I say shitballs assclown, it is their own problem to deal with. The only people I limit my language use around are other people's children, and really old people, until of course 9 times out of 10 they're the one's to blurt out the first curse word of the conversation and all is right with the world lol.

Which kind of dog?
We're getting an Irish Doodle: Irish setter x standard poodle. We found out a couple of years ago that DH is allergic to dogs so we have to do a doodle for him. We were going to get a golden doodle but fell in love with the Irish for their bright red coat. DH does agree on the dog, FTR, I just haven't told him we're officially on a wait list yet. If he thinks the timing is wrong we can pass and wait for the next litter.
periwinkledaydreams I used to LOVE the Brave Little Toaster! I remember watching it at my aunt's house with my cousins.
All the talk of talking appliances made me think of it this morning. Was a classic in our house growing up, now I really want to watch it. As cute as it was, there were some really messed up scenes in that movie from what I can remember!
FFFC: I got drunk last night and in the process, made myself a wrap sandwich to take for lunch today. I am eating it right now and I'm hitting certain ingredients like "oh yeah, forgot I put that in there".
