Confessions of a 20-something mother

[VelvetElvis]

Confession: I secretly (and occasionally audibly) giggle whenever I enter or exit Walmart, because I always enter through the exit door and exit through the enter door.

[starlooker]

Confession:

I totally ignored what my supervisor said and stayed late doing another MMPI today.

I want the MMPI reports more than I want a life, thank you very much.

[zeroguy]

Confession: I completely did not notice that two particular people were talking to each other in 'Dear You', even when I kind of read those posts. This has happened before, too. I guess I just don't really pay a lot of attention there.

[zeroguy]

There was this really cute girl I fell in love with. But then she said she was unimpressed with a whole week's worth of secrets. Total turn-off. I mean, did she think about the thought and toil of admitting library reshelving naughtiness? Just because of that, now I think I'm gay.

[Edit: Just my luck this is on it's own page. Go back to the previous page, if you want this to make a little more sense.]

i work three jobs, seven days a week. on weekends, i work at an ice skating rink. i sit outdoors for 14 hours in the freezing cold and get paid $10 an hour. i started in January. i don't actually do anything. there's a café where people rent skates and pay to get on the rink. literally all i do is sit there.

confession: i'm late. and i don't think i'm going to go in at all, actually. there's no one i can call, as i got hired through a friend of a friend of a friend and don't even know my boss's name, let alone phone number. i have never met my coworkers, nor do i have their contact info. i pretty much literally cannot call out. i also think that if i don't show--absolutely no one will notice.

i've worked there since January. and i have yet to receive a single paycheck. they haven't paid me ONCE yet. this is how i attempt to alleviate my guilt at what i'm in the process of doing.

it's not really working. but i have SO MUCH WORK to do for jobs that ARE paying me.....


ugh i want to crawl back in bed.

[Virlomi]

Aww, I always knew you had a thing for me, Zero. Me and my big mouth. :p

Still, at the risk of turning off my entire entourage of Pweb admirers at once, I stand by my opinion. Now, if some of the confessions in this thread had been posted on Post Secret this week instead of some of the ones he put up, well that would have been a whole other story.

[powerfulcheese04]

I have to agree with Janelle, the secrets this week were a little boring.

[Confessions]

I'm tired. I'm tired inside and I want the world to stop so I can get off. I'm sick at heart from pain I see but can't heal. I'm mad, I'm mad at myself for things I feel like I could or should have done, and I feel guilty even though I know I have an over-developed sense of guilt. And the fact that I feel guilty... makes me feel guilty. (I wish we had the wallbash smiley back.)

It hurts so much right now, I wish I could talk to someone. I mean... I have someone I can talk to, but we're still getting to know each other and we only meet once every few weeks. It's hard waiting. And then it's hard crying at someone who still feels a lot like a stranger.

I miss the friends who traditionally help me when I'm like this. I miss them so badly right now, I want to call one of them up and say, I need a hug, please come find me and hug me. I miss you. I miss you and I need you and I need your friendship and love and understanding.

*sigh* Maybe I should just go and do that. Even for a virtual hug or email or something.

[Eaquae Legit]

I've been guzzling tea like it's going out of style. The current passion is jasmine green tea, and I have been going through 1-2 pots almost every night (3 mugs or so per pot). It's like I can't function without the mug nearby, with its warm, comforting, slightly sweet-smelling presence.

Can one be addicted to weakly-brewed green tea?

[lovesonia]

Confession: I think I'm going to die without him. Really I do.

[edit]

Confession 2: I noticed a few weeks ago that I kind of miss luminousnerd being around on the boards.

[daPyr0x]

confession: I long to devote my life, my self, my entire being, to something... I do not know what, and fear I never will.

[starlooker]

*confession*

Thus far, when I have showed up late it was on days where the weather was questionable. Both times I have been late due to my oversleeping. Both times I let my supervisor assume it was due to road conditions.

I actually feel really guilty about this.

[VelvetElvis]

I am convinced that if something happened to the world's supplies of peanut butter and jelly, I would not survive the year.

[Confessions]

I wish my ex talked like whoever else uses this name...

[anonshadow]

Confession: Every time "Confessions" posts, I wonder who it is.

[Eaquae Legit]

I hate the "currently playing" thread. I'm not particularly interested in what other people are listening to, so it never gets clicked. And then it stays there cluttering things up and making it look like there are REAL new posts until I click the "mark all topics read." It annoys me.

I am also so giddily excited that season one of "Beauty and the Beast" is now on DVD! I want it so bad, now. Been waiting FOREVER. I suppose I should wait until my birthday.

[Bevis]

I confess, white trash newlyweds are funny.

At least this is only the case with one thread for you.

I've decided to end the debate over what the third incarnation of PWeb should be called: BWeb, for Blog PWeb.

[Virlomi]

Kind of true, actually. Strangely, I'm ok with this.

[Firegirl]

EL, would it be called BPWeb for Blog Philotic Web? If not, BWeb as a name will work quite well.

[Jebus]

Kind of true, actually. Strangely, I'm ok with this.

I'm desperately stuggling to work-out what's strange about that. You're one of the offenders, after all.

[Confessions]

I just discovered that I have a friend who has pornographic pictures of herself in public pictures on her livejournal, and I am beyond horrified in so many ways.

1) She is not attractive enough that I can understand anyone wanting to look at it.

2) I don't understand why she would want anyone to see her like that. Honestly, she's bad enough with clothes. She's overweight and would likely be bad if she wasn't. So why, in god's name, WHY?

[Virlomi]

I get irrationally and ridiculously offended and defensive when someone else mentions or (heaven forbid) quotes a book or movie or figure or character or something of the sort that I have somewhere along the way taken as mine. Some things just affect you, you know? And those things become part of this little cluster of precious bits that []are[/i] part of you in some way. And when that happens you forget, quite willfully, that those sorts of feelings and connections happen with the same things for millions of other people too. And then occasionally you're reminded... and you feel silly, but personally insulted just the same.

...or at least I do.

[Petra456]

Confession: I seriously could have spent this entire day in bed. If my buddy had to work today, I probably would have.

[starlooker]

I haven't gotten over it and I think it's affecting my work which I so did not suspect would happen because I never took it seriously.

[Confessions]

For once in my life I don't know what to say to someone's mom. She sent me a message saying that she did not judge me and that she still has a high opinion of me. What? As if I could change what has happened or else move on to other things. I need a drink or a vacation or a life. All of the above would be nice, but I but I guess I just have to slap a grin on my face and continue on.

[Petra456]

Confession: I seriously can't cook for two people. No matter what I make, it ends up being way too much.

[Firegirl]

Same here on cooking, I always try to make it for the exact amount of people and I always end up with leftovers. Not that I mind, but I wish that I could fine tune these things in advance.

[Confessions]

I feel really dirty.
Not only because of what I've done, which is shameful at best
But for once in my life I feel that I need to get tested...

[Young Val]

in conversation, whenever i respond to someone by saying "ditto" i always (every time) have to stop myself from saying "Ditto, ditto, Mr. Brooke," knowing that 9 out of 10 people won't get the reference.

[Eaquae Legit]

I don't know that reference.

[LilBee91]

I immediately thought of Little Women at the mention of Mr. Brooke. So, while I'm pleased I kind of got the reference, I feel a little obsessed.

Unfortunately, I do not get EL's geek joke at all.

[Gravity Defier]

Confession: 9 out of 10 drunk people annoy me.

Confession: I'm currently drunk. But I was quiet the whole night through. So I'm the one who didn't annoy me tonight.

Confession: I'm not where I thought I'd be in my life at my age. I don't feel like an adult yet and I'm starting to doubt that I ever will.

[Confessions]

I never thought he'd hurt me like this. I never thought he'd betray me like this. I was naive to think that love would prevent him from doing these things that hurt so bad. Naive enough to think he respected me as much as I deserve. I couldn't even sleep in the same bed as him last night.

[Young Val]

one of my many mondogreen confessions:

in the song "Look At Me, I'm Sandra Dee" i always thought the line was

"would you pull that crap with a net?"

as opposed to the now blindingly obvious

"would you pull that crap with Annette?"

meaning Annette Funicello.



i'm a moron.
