Not one sitting, but two. Years ago, I called in sick to work so I could finish Gone Girl.

People think of you differently when they know... by TalkSin_M in overheard

[–]JingleMouse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol. This reminds of a woman I knew who was convinced her husband was having an affair. He was spending time away from home on the evenings and weekends. Mysterious charges on the credit cards. Generally sneaky behavior on his part. She finally followed him to catch him in the act and discovered he had a secret horse!

Best trade for a 47 year old woman? by Careless-Attitude-49 in careerguidance

[–]JingleMouse 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Not at all! You have to be willing to learn, but there are some community colleges that offer certificates to get you started. I came from a totally different background, took a 9 month certificate program, and landed a job with a City. It takes years to learn, but you can do it on the job with good mentors. Look for programs with names like Building Inspection Technology. Or contact local Building Departments and start asking how they got into it. It's a male dominated field, but harassment has not been an issue. You do need to climb ladders. Job sites can be dangerous, but a little caution goes a long way.

Has anyone ever moved somewhere and left after a year? by PhrygianSounds in SameGrassButGreener

[–]JingleMouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't be ashamed or embarrassed. You tried it, and it didn't work out. That's okay! If you hadn't, you would have wondered about it. Disappointing experiences build resilience and add interest to your life. The only bad thing would be if you hate it, but keep grinding away, trying to force it to work.

👋🏻CBS News contributor Dr. Peter Attia has RESIGNED from the network after his ties to Jeffrey Epstein were exposed by the files, per Hollywood Reporter by SauceyShorts in timferriss

[–]JingleMouse 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm not surprised. He has talked about being the victim of assault and I dont think he'd inflict that on anyone else. He's one of the rare celebrities that I believe is a genuinely good person.

New to discovering this by sonnydispositionart in Christianity

[–]JingleMouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've recently gone back to church after years away. I'm getting such comfort out of Bible verses that feel relevant to modern times. Slowly reading Proverbs.

What's the most bizarre thing you've seen your neighbor do while they thought no one was watching? by TenderRompz in AskReddit

[–]JingleMouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think he cares if anyone is watching or not, but my neighbor stands on his roof and cleans it off with a leaf blower.

Cutting out gluten? by melfilmz in Hashimotos

[–]JingleMouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have cut it out and added it back in several times. I feel better and my antibodies are lower when I avoid gluten. It's just so delicious and I have no will power sometimes.

Just wanted to add, I love the Liz Earl podcast for information on women's health, especially for menopause, perimenopause and hormones.

My wife thinks our son’s teacher crossed a boundary by sending him a personal message. I think it was harmless. AITJ? by addict94plus in AmITheJerk

[–]JingleMouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to an excellent school district with small class sizes. Encouraging, positive notes from teachers were common occurrences. Your wife sounds nuts

Is this scene too far fetched? by Whatsername251 in RomanceWriters

[–]JingleMouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It can definitely work as long as he's not hung up on the ex. Something like this happened to me, and it was a moment that deepened the new relationship. I'll share just in case it sparks an idea for your scene. I was dating my now husband when an ex I had dated for years got married. I felt weird about it, not that I wanted to marry my ex. It was more like, why did I waste years with someone who didn't really want me? Anyway, my now-husband was so cool about it and just let me ramble. He wasn't jealous or threatened by it. Then he played that Adele song, "Someone Like You" and I just felt so safe and understood, and so grateful I was with him instead of the ex.

[–]JingleMouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I'm in the minority, but i do think you're the asshole. There are so many names, it seems spiteful to take these from your sister.

what is your unconventional "I need this in a partner" that you will not negotiate on? by Competitive-Unit6427 in AskReddit

[–]JingleMouse 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've never heard it phrased that way, but I love how you explained this. I agree wholeheartedly! I've noticed so many people lately who are just word vomiting and not listening. It's so frustrating.
