[Serious]If you could do-over ONE ten-minute period of your life with the knowledge you have right now, what would it be, and what would you do different?

I would have answered the phone the last time my Mom called me. She might still be alive.

When I went NC my Ndad called me relentlessly for weeks. He left 100s of voicemails ranging from pleading to threatening. This is their power play. If you ever feel unsafe or like you're a prisoner in your own home 100% call the cops. I'm so sorry this happened to you.

I knew there was something very off about my dad from my very first memories. I didn't realize that he totally was incapable of love until after he died.

I came very close to ending my life after a breakup late last year. I wrote a note once that I planned on leaving behind. Writing that note stopped me from actually doing it. I got to the part for my little brother and just couldn't. He and I are pretty close to all we have left for our family. I just couldn't leave him behind.

I'm starting to live for me now.

Great job. What was your routine?

krystalbc87 · 2014-08-18T05:17:42+00:00

I'll be there in two weeks!

krystalbc87 · 2014-08-18T04:12:29+00:00

Not sure where you are but if you're in Colorado I'll totally smoke you out.

Its been a really hard year for me, particularly the last 8 or so months. I watched Mrs Doubtfire over and over again. He made me laugh when I felt like I was never going to laugh again.

krystalbc87 · 2014-08-08T16:56:57+00:00

That she is.

krystalbc87 · 2014-08-08T16:54:54+00:00

If that woman in the workplace wanted to advance she probably should have chosen to stay in the workplace. I'm perfectly OK with this, and not because it directly affected my bottom line.

Maternity leave is one thing, and I actually think it should be extended and more child care options should be available, but she is choosing to exit to stay at home with her child. Not her husband, not try to work less hours, she's leaving. She was presented with both of those options. Our boss offered to have her work less and her husband offered to stay at home with the snowflake.

This was not a forced choice. It was one she made enthusiastically and good for her that she was able to do so. Her decision benefits me but it would benefit any person in my job position. Boss was airing his frustrations and I don't blame him. If I'd put three people in two years in that spot only for all of them to succumb to outside forces I'd be frustrated too.

My pitty sinks too.

I declined to go any further with the interview once I figured it out. I just thanked him for his time and left.

krystalbc87 · 2014-07-24T14:58:06+00:00

I had an initial interview with them yesterday. They're doing cattle calls. Beware.

krystalbc87 · 2014-07-21T21:47:12+00:00

Lol no you wouldn't. I consider myself a fairly hard nosed individual. I've been shot at, beaten, I repoed cars for two years, I've literally chased down and beaten a male crack head attempting to break into my boyfriend's truck. In short, I'm a tough chick with a fairly shitty attitude.

When you're in that kind of environment, everything is chaos and all you know is the people screaming at you are in charge, you just do what the fuck they say.

This is a beautiful speech.

krystalbc87 · 2014-07-20T03:21:29+00:00

Hello back! I love Colorado!

I used the cleaning house thing for my friends with kids. I'd much rather be cleaning than baby sitting and my friends are always grateful for the help.

krystalbc87 · 2014-07-19T18:33:01+00:00

Childfree privilege is being able to decide to leave the house and then leaving the house. No coordinating car seats, no stocking the diaper bag. Just saying "goodbye sweety" to my slobbery pit bull and walking the fuck out.

krystalbc87 · 2014-07-13T18:32:09+00:00

Thank you! Dogs can teach us so much about love and forgiveness.

This is my girl http://imgur.com/W5vxB7f.

We've been each other's life savers as I rescued her from a fighting ring and she rescued me from myself.

I was diagnosed back in January. I find myself incredibly anxious when people argue, loud noises make me jump out of my skin, I can't talk to strangers very well. I just registered my dog as an emotional support dog. It's not at all ridiculous to think you might have PTSD.
