Me and social media are an odd combo. A professional group I am in has an FB presence (people all over the country). I post very little personal stuff on my FB and use it mainly to connect. The one time I post a vacation photo some random person (but I did accept the friend request) is making veiled "must be nice to be privileged" comments. We have an upcoming conference in a few weeks and I will unfriend when it's over. But sheesh.

The nonresponsive friend is doing better! She was able to open her eyes, and wiggle her fingers. This is a GREAT sign. Sadly, on the other side of things, DH's aunt passed last night. RIP. Looks like we will be flying across the country for a funeral. I hope we have a few days, and give my road rash and bruises a chance to heal up a little before I have to travel. What a friggin' year.

I am so f*cking over being sick. Sinus pressure hit me like a ton of bricks a week ago Monday at 1030pm. Got up and took something, BOOM... no sleep for you. Next day, my TEETH hurt and my gums and mouth were swollen. Nice. Go get some sudafed (zyrtec-d), and the pain and swelling went down in my mouth, but now my ears are all f*cked up. The ear tubes are pressurized and now I have sharp shooting pain in my ears. Every 30 seconds or so. For a full week so far. And the meds don't let me sleep. Tried a neti pot but didn't read that I needed to boil the water first. So now I'm terrified of brain eating amoebas. Neti pot didn't do much anyway. If the amoebas are coming to get me, I wish they'd hurry up and just do it. This is the worst sinus infection I've ever had, but I still don't want to go to the clinic. Last time I went there with this pain in my ears, they put me on gabapentin. Gabapentin! When what I needed was a simple zyrtec-d. I am hating life right now.

I hate trump and his worshippers so much that when i see a video and it turns out they are trumpers, I turn off the video. Tonight i did this to a dog video i found interesting (re: giant mastiff dogs) and when the man loaded his dogs into his SUV and closed the hatch I saw trump stickers and turned off the video. I was immediately a triggered snowflake liberal. Haha. Fuck donald trump and his worshippers.

I don't think it's a big deal.. Maybe her parents just really liked the name? Most people born around that same time as her probably have no idea who JonBenet Ramsey was anyway.

I posted this on another site that I think others here read. I was curious about others' opinions: I was just perusing a Facebook group I'm in, and the name of a poster caught my eye. I have only seen that name ONE TIME in my entire life. I looked it up, and saw that only 20 babies have been given that name since 1880. Also, 1997 was the year that had the highest record of babies given that name - 14. Meaning that only 6 children had been given that name in the previous 117 years.I looked at the profile of the poster. Yep. She had been born in 1997, so obviously she had been named after the little girl who had been murdered in 1996 - JonBenet Ramsey. How do you all feel about giving a newborn the unique name of a murdered child? I personally find it really disturbing.

2020 can just go the hell away. My sister passed suddenly. Then my best friend's father a few weeks later. Another friend was just admitted to the hospital completely nonresponsive (a side effect of her chemo, they think). My next door neighbor was taken away in ambulance this weekend, and hasn't come back. And now DH's aunt was given just a few days left to live. I'm sure it is because I'm so stressed out that I took a header while I was trail running, and now I have road rash and bruises up and down my right side. I almost asked what else can go wrong, but I'm scared of the answer!

I offered several options for me to work while the kids are off school this week. DH "no, ill cover all your stuff, don't worry about it." 6AM- first day. Major attitude because he has extra work. I do his work so he can go play or whatever with no attitude all the time. My upbringing (brainwashing) tells me i should apologize and offer to find last minute childcare, and generally feel guilty for being inconvenient. New me insists i don't owe an apology, i did all i could, and i should just enjoy the week off with the kids. Thoughts?

Oh, cool. The bulimia vs. binge eating pissing match again. Thank you for the reminder of why I never post about my eating disorder.

I joined a group for people I went to HS with. Every single guy who wouldn't date me because I was fat, are now all balding and married to women who are at least 300lbs. In HS I was 5'7 170, a little chunky. I know we all mature with age and everything. I just find it strange how ALL of them ended up like that.
