awesome! I am so having a birthday party for my cat next May. It's his 10th birthday and dammit we should celebrate the fact that I've kept him alive for this long

11/20/2013 12:27:26 PM

i'm lucky to remember if i fed her in the morning, let alone how long she's lasted

My cat will be 11 next August. He is a fatty, Im surprised he has lasted this long. He is due for a checkup tough, it's been over 3 years I think.

11/20/2013 12:36:29 PM

Dammit zulily. You got me again. I won't be buying from you once the kid pops out because your ship times are crazy and unpredictable, but man there is some cute crap on there.

^ OMG YES. every time i see people all "OMG THAT HAS THINGS I CAN'T PRONOUNCE IN IT IT MUST BE POISON" i facepalm so hard

11/20/2013 1:48:55 PM

I worked for a mom that stopped giving the kids apple juice because she heard they were putting arsenic in it...

Quote :

"Pride and Prejudice and Kitties (originally called “Purr and Petulance”) began with the idea of combining the wicked humor of Jane Austen with the wackiness of cats. When we started out, we didn’t really know what we were doing (and that’s an understatement). We thought it was enough to take a cute cat photo and throw a quote from Pride and Prejudice at it. The idea of illustrating P&P with photos of kitties was so funny to us that we didn’t even think it mattered if the photograph related to the quote. In fact, to us it was funnier if it didn’t. Here’s an example:"

lololol

Hey I didn't thank you guys for the advice the other day...so thanks!

Also, I need new music to listen too.

11/20/2013 1:53:59 PM

what ended up happening?

11/20/2013 1:56:47 PM

just APPLYING to grad school is stressing me the fuck out

11/20/2013 2:01:29 PM

^ what degree? have you written a statement of purpose? good luck

11/20/2013 2:02:12 PM

international relations

Halfway written the statement of purpose - definitely need to go back over it a few times

mostly, at this point, I'm worried about begging for letters of recommendation. Even if the professors agree to do it, I have no idea if they'll think enough of me to even put decent effort into it

and thanks

I think I am going to make NCSUHippie's epic Thanksgiving pasta salad this week

11/20/2013 3:13:10 PM

^ Ha! I was just thinking about that pasta salad yesterday for some reason. Probably because I have some dried cranberries that I've been using a lot lately.

11/20/2013 3:30:42 PM

the way you improve this is to email them your updated resume, and give them your personal statement and give them a list of classes you have taken, and remind them of the classes they teach that you took.

this makes their job easy and much more likely to write something thorough about you

11/20/2013 3:51:09 PM

Klatypus is pretty awesome

11/20/2013 5:37:20 PM

All day I felt kind of "free"...

I just realized I didn't put on a bra this morning. Oops!

11/20/2013 5:49:05 PM

just now, huh

11/20/2013 5:49:55 PM

Yeah the first thing I do when I get home is rip that sucker off, but I reached back and there was nothing there

11/20/2013 5:54:57 PM

lol, i don't even know how to react to that

11/20/2013 5:56:25 PM

apparently having a wedding means that for 1 day you should be doing what other people want

11/20/2013 6:00:35 PM

thursday and friday off this week and next week

11/20/2013 11:36:54 PM

^^ don't. Do what you guys want. I know at times it will be stressful and you'll have to put up with some crap, but you'll regret caving to make other people happy. At least in major ways. Concede a few small things if they don't matter to you and it will help smooth some nerves.


Are Shutterfly prints decent or drugstoresque? We got 50 free, so I am getting some. But their website says you can order through them and pick up at Walgreens or Target, so my expectations aren't super high.

If you're paying for it, do whatever the fuck with you want. If you're not, then you might have to concede some things.

11/21/2013 7:53:35 AM

Skwinkle, they are standard photos. I like making their little photo books because they are constantly sending me freebie codes. I also ordered my Christmas cards through them and they should arrive today or tomorrow!

11/21/2013 7:58:13 AM

We just ordered our thank you notes with them.

11/21/2013 8:04:39 AM

I did my thank you notes through vista print, so they were on cardstock instead of photo paper. I freaking loved them.

We used this photo on the front:




And the back said Thank you For Helping Us Start Our Happily Ever After

11/21/2013 8:10:08 AM

I was planning to use Vistaprint, but I didn't like any of their designs or feel like doing one of my own. The Shutterfly ones have photos on the inside too, which is kind of weird, but we went with it. I figure it will be good for the people who didn't get to go to the wedding to be able to see a little more.

11/21/2013 8:12:14 AM

We went blank. The whole front is a picture and then I put a border around the text on the back. It was just a postcard. A month after the wedding when I was getting around to doing all this stuff I landed in the ER and then pretty much was in and out of different labs, hospitals, and doctor's offices until my surgery in February, so I said Fuck it and went the easy way out. it paid off. everyone loved them.

11/21/2013 8:17:16 AM

scariest thing I have ever seen

I really don't want to go to class today. Going to be a huge waste of time.

11/21/2013 12:27:14 PM

^^ jesus christ

^ I was about to say that's the worst, but then I saw the video

11/21/2013 12:28:25 PM

what the ever living fuck

my heart rate just shot through the roof and i started dry heaving

Edit: Apparently my blood sugar dropped like a rock. What the hell? I don't have the diabeetus

I've signed my name exactly 228 times so far today

/PE problems

11/21/2013 1:54:04 PM

^^ are you hypoglycemic?

11/21/2013 2:07:21 PM

I hope not.

Was tested as part of a larger medical workup at the beginning of the year and everything was kosher.

I'm just fucked up lately

[Edited on November 21, 2013 at 2:15 PM. Reason : ]

11/21/2013 2:14:54 PM

are you skinny even tho you don't exercise as much as other ppl?

11/21/2013 2:15:41 PM

yes

Not as much as I used to be, but still.

11/21/2013 2:18:17 PM

then there is a good chance you are borderline hypoglycemic like I am

and the tests will never confirm it because you are not as bad as some people

anyway, watch what you eat and eat small snacks throughout the day and pack a juice drink with you on long days so that if you feel like that again you have some sugar to absorb quickly

11/21/2013 2:20:00 PM

You're the best

Maybe you can help me out with stuff tomorrow, too

11/21/2013 2:21:35 PM

no problem

also have you ever had vertigo? I get it when I haven't eaten for awhile and sometimes it's so bad I can't see straight or walk straight as if I were drunk

it's kind of trippy actually

^^ yea, a few times

A couple of times a while back I've had a total blackout - not like passed out, but my vision just went black and I couldn't see shit

11/21/2013 2:42:53 PM

I'm pretty sure this is the first time in my life I've even taken a mental health day off work...

I feel like such a loser for having to do it, too.

11/21/2013 3:12:56 PM

Mental health days are very important. I would encourage you to embrace it, and I hope you feel better.
