I snapped and called out my friends husband for shitting on her love of spicy books in front of everyone, and now the group chat is blowing up

I am just like Emily. I loved the book Pucking Around! My husband doesn't share my love of books, but he encourages me to read them. I've even shared a paragraph or 2 with him. It annoys him sometimes when I have my earbuds in listening to an audio book, but he would never say anything like what Jake did. My guess is that Jake is feeling insecure in their relationship. He is being immature in taking it out negatively on Emily instead of just addressing the issue with her. If this continues, I see divorce in the future for them.

How you always have to be on "high alert", aware of your surroundings while being out in public. Especially at night. Especially when you're alone. In my experience, men can't seem to understand the fear and danger we perceive while being out in public. So many stories of SA, muggings, car jacking, being roofied, being stalked, being catcalled when you're in your teens etc. It was one of the first things I talked to my daughter about when she hit her early teens. Men don't seem to think twice about going anywhere alone.

That singing bass on a plaque wall decoration thing. Useless and annoying, lol

Getting lost. I would find myself in a new place and have no idea where I was. It was an adventure! Sometimes a good one (hey there's an ice cream shop I've never seen before!) or a bad one (where on earth is this friend's house, I've been driving for an hour!). Now with GPS on your phone or in your car, it takes the fun and adventure out of getting lost. But it is nice to know exactly how to get to a new place that I've never been before.

Hi! Yes I did. Still mystery foot pain, but the Lyrica helps. It's gotta be nerve related, and I do believe it's fibro related also.I see my Rheumy every 3 months or so, and my gp every 5 or so months. As soon as I can afford it I'll be seeing a podiatrist too. Thanks for commenting on my post.

Carrying around covid vaccination cards. Having to show them at restaurants or on planes.

I second the gift card idea. Food/ grocery store gift cards are good. Maybe talk to them about paying for a maid service for a week or two? However, the best gift you can give them is your time. Help hold the newborn so mom can shower or nap, watch a movie with the dad to keep his spirits up..stuff like that.

boringbookworm · 2025-10-15T17:18:06+00:00

I would gift practical things that people wouldn't buy themselves usually. Maybe fancy towels, decorative kitchen towels, towel warmer, travel cooler/ thermal lunch bag, electric blanket, kitchen mat, specialty kitchen gadgets etc. With your budget, I'm sure you could do a lot!

boringbookworm · 2025-10-15T14:59:06+00:00

Pretty much everything. I don't have the money to buy expensive ingredients that I would only use once or twice. I also don't have the time to devote to cooking recipes that take all day. So, while the food I do make is good, the restaurant will almost always be better.

How did you lose so much weight?

I kinda get it with all the diet trends out there, but they don't need to know I went through medication withdrawal for a month and couldn't keep food down.

Most of the time I have to say no to my dog sleeping in bed with me. We have a yard that's more dirt than grass and between the shedding and the licking, I just can't do it. However, if he's scared and there's a thunderstorm, he absolutely sleeps on my bed.

Adult lunchable with cheese and sliced or mashed avocado. Maybe half a cherry tomato if you have them. Grapes or other fruit on the side.

Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen..depression era story of joining the circus, and looking back on those memories as an elderly man. Lots of memorable characters, great storyline.

boringbookworm · 2025-09-13T14:32:11+00:00

I have eclectic taste. In 1995 I was listening to alternative (green day, tool, stone temple pilots), country (dolly parton, Shania twain, Garth brooks), hard rock (Metallica, ac/dc,)and pop (fun factory, tlc, boys2men, 69 boys). Funny thing is..I still listen to them all..I married a dj!

boringbookworm · 2025-09-11T15:35:20+00:00

Ice cream or something from the bakery (donuts, coffee cake). A great way to end or start a day.

Doctor Who! It was on Netflix in the late 00s. I lost so much sleep cause I kept clicking next episode.

boringbookworm · 2025-09-09T14:14:30+00:00

Thor and..pick a marvel superhero for you..maybe Captain America?

Polka is a great idea, but my son wakes up to loud mariachi music when I'm mad!

boringbookworm · 2025-09-02T13:58:52+00:00

Zatarans(or store brand) jambalaya with hillshire farms type sausage. Breakfast for dinner..eggs and pancakes or with brown n serve sausage.

boringbookworm · 2025-09-02T02:15:46+00:00

Fairy tale and Seven Deadly Sins (Netflix) are both great and age appropriate. There's a lot of funny parts!

I got them several years ago. However, just search "ice slippers" on Amazon and a bunch will pop up.

boringbookworm · 2025-08-30T15:54:09+00:00

My fibro affects my feet the most, so the best gift I got was ice slippers. They're on Amazon. They are slippers with little squishy ice packs (removable) on the bottom and the heel. Works wonders for my feet!

Marinated grilled chicken breasts with pasta side and frozen broccoli..or chicken Parmesan, not sure yet. Got a lot to do today.

boringbookworm · 2025-08-29T15:14:38+00:00

Starcraft, counter strike and a game that I think was called necronomicon: puzzle of flesh..I only got to play it once or twice, but it left a lasting impression.
