I am increasingly annoyed by children. Every time I go to the mall, or anywhere in public, they are screaming, throwing tantrums, running around, getting in the way, etc. I thought I wanted kids, but the thought of being permanently linked to one of those creatures makes me want to cry. I don't plan on having kids in the near future, but I am afraid that this feeling won't ever go away.


Well, this is a little insulting, but I can completely understand where you're coming from and why it's annoying.  Truth is, everyone pretty much feels the way you do and can't imagine that their own little sugar buns will ever be misbehaving, slothenly little heathens who shriek like banshees and run about wildly hiding in clothes racks.


But then you have kids, they turn 2, and reality sets in.  You no longer have the energy to chase them down.  You get so tired of hearing your own voice say, over-and-over, "Come back here!  Get out of that!  Stop touching those!  Stay with me!  Sit down!" that you just give in and hope no one gets hurt.  I know people get annoyed by my little ones sometimes, but I just don't give a crap.  If I had someone who could keep them while I went out, I'd be a happy camper.  But it doesn't happen.  And I LIKE that they're having such a good time doing such menial things like running in circles and chasing each other.  How great it would be to be that way again!  My favorite saying I've ever heard about kids is simply, "Let them reign."  And I do, as long as it's safe.


Not that I don't want to stuff their mouths with a pair of socks and then wrap them in duct tape...........

*of late i've been feeling really disconnected from the forum, and it makes me sad

I still think about a boyfriend I broke up with 3 years ago much more than I should. I would never get back together with him, probably wouldn't even talk to him if I saw him, but I periodically check his MySpace.


Alright girls...all of you who talked of stalking exes on MySpace are in trouble...you made me curious!!   I still sometimes think of this guy I was...hmmm...involved with (it was complicated) in college and try to find stuff online about him, but he's not the "joiner" type, so I assumed searching for him on MySpace would be fruitless.  Wrong!


The worst part...I am now pretty sure he's gay.

My turn!

After 30 years of marriage my mom is leaving my dad (with very good reason) and I'm having these horrible thoughts of getting in my dad's face screaming, yelling, threatening and smacking him until he listens to reason.

I accidentally stepped on my dog's back and now he's at the vet getting x-rays b/c he may have a cracked bone...I feel like a horrible mommy.

I have secret thoughts of tripping the obnoxious girl in my kickboxing class. She does nothing but run her mouth...I'm hot, I'm tired, It's too hard, I can't do it, I don't know how...shut the *$^& up!!!

Apparently I've decided that working out 1 day a week is how I'm going to lose weight. Then I get on the scale and just don't understand why I stay at the same weight.

I secretly dance to Gold Digger and My Humps sometimes when I get home from work. Luckily, my dogs notify me when DH is on his way to the door so I have enough time to start acting normal before he comes inside. I can't dance, I have no rhythm...but 'get down girl, go ahead and get down...'

I feel very turned off my my hubby recently, and I feel terrible about it.  He has gained so much weight and just doesn't seem to care at all.  I know I'd want him to be attracted to me no matter what, so that's why I feel so terrible about feeling this way!  I've tried hinting, ignoring, and just being brutally honest.  Nothing motivates him!  I'm not talking a little pudge.  Think comic book guy from the Simpsons.  I'm just very irritated by his lack of self-respect.  I guess it shouldn't bother me so much, but it's just getting to the point where I'm repulsed.  I'm a bad person!

You're not a bad person. Who wouldn't be upset at such physical changes? Can y'all take walks together after dinner or something? Would he be up for it?

*I'm freaking out b/c the condom broke, my period is late and I have a sinking feeling in my gut. I can't deal with this. I'm seriously, unbelievably freaked. How could that happen after I took every necessary precaution? Fucking birth control.

You're probably fine. Your freak out session is probably the main cause of the late period. But you should definite take a preg. test, just to be on the safe side. And don't tell D until you know anything for sure. No point in opening that can of worms if it's nothing, ya know?

out of nowhere yesterday, i was walking to the store with my ipod, listening to radiohead's idioteque (i think i can't listen to this song anymore) and all of a sudden i started to hyperventilate. i had all these thoughts in my head and i started to have a panic attack on the way to the store. i turned around trying not to cause too much attention to myself, and almost ran home.  i felt like i was watching a movie with myself in it and the perfect song playing as soundtrack music. as soon as i got home i burst into tears.  i was wearing dark eye make up, and when i was finished crying, i didn't clear up my makeup 100%.  my bf got home five minutes later and i guess i was kind of hoping my bf would ask me what's wrong because i wanted to talk to him about it. but as soon as he got home, i kinda ran away from him to make dinner.  he asked me several times what was wrong and i said nothing and ran away to do dishes or take a bath, etc...i hate that i'm so bad about opening up when i have a wonderful bf who listens and always makes me feel better, but i just can't, and i know he gets frustrated.

my roommate went to israel a couple months ago and met a mystic that said the world was going to end on march 16.  For the past couple of months, she's been kind of worried about, saying things like, "might as well eat another candy bar- the world is going to end on march 16", half joking, half not.  I looked at the news today and we launched our biggest offensive in Iraq since 2003, which kind of spooks me.  The world IS ending for some people, and now i'm worried we're going to be nuked in the near future.

*Along the lines of what some of you have been saying, I don't want kids either. I have NEVER liked kids or babies. It pisses me off when I tell people I don't want kids and they act like I'm being silly, like everyone HAS to have/like kids or there's something seriously wrong with them.

*My job is going nowhere, I'm underpaid, and it's boring. But I love the people I work with, I'm get to go on ST most of the day, and it's a good commute. I feel underappreciated, and therefore spend the whole day online just to get back at them. I need to look for another job but I don't want to. I told myself I would start seriously looking after the holidays, which was over 3 months ago.

*I eat WAY more than I need to, but sometimes I feel like eating something yummy is the most exciting thing about my day. I lost a lot of wait in 2001 and I have gained it all back.

I thought of one more....
I just made my airplane reservations to go home for my little sister's graduation. I am also going the first week of april for my niece's birthday shopping day - plus i haven't been home since christmas. But I'm really starting to resent that I have to pay $200 to fly home & no one offers to fly me home but bitch that they never see me & want me there.....I'd rather spend the $400 on shoes.

At work I have decided to be as lazy as possible, since we get treated like shit.  Yesterday I brought Soduko puzzles, man did time fly!

i get freaked out at this stuff too.  sometimes i can't even watch the news.  if i see a pic. of bin laden, i can't stop thinking about what he's plotting and if someone i love or know will be a victim.  but for now, i will eat a candy bar in your roomies honor.

remember me complaining about my boss? the whiniest, neediest 38 year old baby the world has ever seen?


he is driving me NUTS!  even though i have given notice and am counting the hours until march 31, i don't honestly know if i will make it without physically harming him.  i am not a computer technician, and i can only do so many things all at once--no matter how much you are incapable of taking care of your own shit, and no matter how smart and responsible i am, i only have one pair of hands, one pair of ears, and one phone.  he wastes my time, hovering over my desk and dithering about how to reach a certain client (um, call their cell phone?) while i am not getting my own work done! 


i also feel like a total a-hole because i took a new job that i was only mildly interested in, just to have a job in a new city.  they low-balled me on the money and i took it anwyay and felt like a chump.  now there's a job that i'm really interested in and makes me excited to think about doing it (and the possibility of working side by side with young investment bankers all day long, if you must know), and my brother has a very good connection at the company.  i'm sending them my resume today and if they offer me the job, i might quit the job i just accepted before i even start (as long as they can't sue me).  it makes me feel like a major jerk, but i guess they'd do it to me if the shoe were on the other foot, right?

honey, I'm really sorry you feel that way.  I think you have an incredible, amazing, and totally unique style and your contributions here have been huge.  I'm so sorry you don't feel the old connection, but I hope you stick around 'til it comes back!

if it makes you feel any better, i love little kids.  the wilder, sillier, shriekier the better--that's way more fun than the boring quiet ones that behave all the time.  and "sugar buns"--lol.

see, i can't stand kids sometimes, but i know i want them..eventually. i love my little brother beyond words- i could spend nights just looking at him when he was sleeping when he was younger.  i thought he was so cute and he was very well mannered.  I hope i feel the same way with my kids and that they are also sweet children that like to have fun, but aren't terrors.  i think i notice the cute children more than the bad ones.
