I was walking in the rain and I fell in a muddy puddle.

No but I was so humiliated that day at work.

I bet! I would be too! I am so sorry that happened to you.


I have my annual physical exam coming up. I have not been eating well and am worried the doctor will scold me.

you should take the docs advise and get your health under control though, its important!

Yeah he says that to me every year and then I fall off the wagon. This time I will make sure to try harder!

good i hope you do well and stick to it!


i have a friend on facebook that posted a weird meme of someone mixing milk , nes quick and maya and swore its so good ... i almost threw up in my mouth

I just almost threw up a bit when you described it to me.  So I understand

oh man it was so nasty , i did not think that was a thing

I cannot imagine anyone wanting to drink that without losing a bet


My neighbor sits out on his balcony butt naked sometimes.

That sounds pretty disturbing.  Have you called the cops?

No but that might be a good idea. It's just an awkward and gross situation.


Skydiving is an exillirating and scary experience!

I've never been skydiving myself. I hear that it's a great experience, but I'm not sure if I have the bravery for it.

I did not for many years, but my brother convinced me to tandem with him to celebrate our mothers remission.

Oh wow. Is it something that you would do again?


my mom is supposed to call me regarding her test results.

I hope she hears some good news. Is it pretty serious?

She had stage 3 cancer, but she was clear last screening a year ago.

I'll be praying for her, I hope she continues to stay in the clear in the future.


I always try to predict the needs of my family too. Like how you're ironing clothes.

That's a good thing. It can sometimes be overwhelming though

Yes, August is always the toughest month of the year for us. Everything the kids do starts then.

I know what you mean. We are getting club schedules together for my teen


I've bought a lottery ticket every week for years. This week shockingly I bought the winning ticket!

Thank you. $50. Of course they take so much out in taxes

Still more than you started with.  For that ticket anyway.  LOL.  Congrats.


Yeah he can't wait!  That's all he talks about lol

That is great that you are going to take him. He will always remember it.


My finances will be getting better in the next year.

That has got to feel good!  Did you get a raise or a new job?

I get a raise that kicks in in February.

Congratulations!  Your life should feel a little less stressful when you get it!


I've just recently got my pilot's license! I can't wait to hit the skies!

That's amazing. I have only been on a few planes in my life.

Have you ever flown one? A totally different experience, it's so freeing!


I was a bit taken back when I had to move out of my parents house

I relied on them for everything, I was scared to move out


We had an intruder three nights ago who went through all out stuff while we were sleeping and ransacked our basement.

How terrifying!  Did the intruder took anything or was he just some kind of creep?

He took the only nice ring I had and a bunch of stuff from our basement and our tv.  It was horrifying!  I'm usually a light sleeper but I didn't even hear him. I'm looking into an alarm system.

That is so awful.  I imagine you won't feel safe again until you get the alarm.  You can also get a big dog to help you keep safe.


My family disowned me a few years ago. I heard that they were going on the annual family lake trip next week. Thinking about it made me really sad as I remembered all of my childhood memories on this trip.

Awe, I am sorry to hear that. Do you think there will be any chance of a reconciliation?

I don't know, I have been waiting five years and have sent many emails to my mom  but she seems too angry. I hope so one day but it seems less likely every day.

I know it isn't my place to ask, but why did they disown you?

I ran away from home with boyfriend, when I was 16, and we had a baby. I don't regret it because we are married now and have three sons. (: I appreciate you asking, thanks.

In the end, I hope she sees that you were able to make it work, and if you can and do, she should meet you half way. You are very welcome :)

Thank you so much! I should end the chat now haha but I just wanted to thank you, so if you want you can end it.

Yeah, I always hate ending conversations as well 2 turns just isn't enough. I will now let you end the conversation, lol


I often get irritated because of my sister.

my sister's can be irritating as well. no one knows how to push your buttons like family.

Yeah true that! yesterday she pranked me again. I was really mad at her

oh no. hopefully it was an innocent prank.


My work life makes me so stressed out due to work load. And I have no one to come home and receive emotional support from. Being lonely is the worst

I'm so sorry you are going through this.  Maybe it would be a good thing to get a therapist so that you have someone that can help you through it.

I am not a believer in therapy sessions. They have temporary effects but cost much. The only solution is get into relationship. I hope to find that someone special

Well, I hope you do find that special someone, and that the stress at work lets up a bit as well.


I've been single for some time now. I am alone and sooo sad.

Try to put yourself out there!  You can also try online dating!

I've been trying those but no luck yet. I am so lonely.

Never stop trying!  There are plenty of fish in the sea!


I remember the first day of my first job 17 years ago.

I worked in the food court at the airport.

Oh wow!  I have actually worked there too


My manager keep lying to me. He is trying to advantage of me.

Do you want to yell at him and call him a liar?

I want to do both but I can't if I want to keep my job.

One time i secretly called my boss's wife and outted him for an affair he was having with one of my coworkers.. lol he never knew..


I was lost in a neighborhood I didn't know, when some guy came up to me and quietly asked if I needed a ride.

Please tell me that he was friendly and nothing creepy!

I wouldn't know. I defnitely didn't want to risk it and declined the offer!

Thank god! LOL I was like please tell me this was a positive experience...


I sure miss the days when I was young and living at home. We had a nice house and all I had to do was schoolwork and play with my friends.

True, you must be feeling nostalgic, kids going back to school and all

Yeah now I have responsibilities. I wish I could go back to how things were.


I am hoping the new super smash bros will be as good as it looks


oh no. did you try to retrace your steps to find it?

We were at Old Navy. I think I set it on top of the car and drove away like and idiot

oh that stinks. did you have phone insurance at least?

I do. We just got home so I am going to call once we get settled in. I can't believe it

i'm so sorry. hopefully there is something they can do for you

I probably will have to pay but I think they will replace the phone

it's worth it so you don't have to be without a phone.


I have a presentation tonight, I'm nervous but I still think I'll ace it.

HAve you been practicing? Do you have note cards?

I don't want to use note cards as I look better without them. I did use them while practicing though.

Thanks, yeah it is for a summer class in macroeconomics.

Well congratulation on your A in advance lol


I waited all night on the day that Halo 3 came out. I was so excited.

Definitely, I bought it the second it was released.


I'm so glad I have enough money saved in case anything happens.

That's a really good idea, smart thinking!

Thank you. I sacrificed a lot to save this much.

Well hopefully nothing bad will happen and you won't need to use it.


I am drug addict. Once I robbed my parents because of my addiction. When I think about it, I feel terrible bad.

That is a terrible thing but your situation has an toll on you have you considered getting help?

I considered getting help but I always get back to my drug addiction.

You need to commit I know it is hard I could only imagine but I know you have a good support system to make things right with family and parents you have to get clean.


Man. This weekend might be fun.  But it also might be SCARY

Now why is it going to be scary? Going to a haunted house?

haha no!   Taking my neice and nephew to the amusement park!

For what? Hallowscream at Busch Gardens?!?!? If so, that place is a blast.


I took the garbage to the dump a couple of days ago. one of the bags broke and spilled all over the bed of my truck.

it's left some grease in my truck bed, but other than that it was okay.


My younger sister graduates from college this year, I can't believe she's going to get her degree.

Thats awesome though.  I didn't graduate until I was 40 something

It was 30s for me!  She kept at her classes, even though she had two kids pretty young and worked.

That really is quite an accomplishment.. the type that makes you cry at graduation ceremonies!


that sounds exciting.  Did a lot of people show?

Yeah. About half of our class. It was nice to catch up with everyone


The tariff war he is creating will derailed the economy

Yes! that's very bad. I don't like it either


I got in a wreck today. Someone cut me off on a wet road and slammed their brakes causing me to wreck. It makes me furious someone can drive so dangerously.

Yea enough to have it get fixed. I was so mad. I had a big meeting at work that I had to miss.

Well, I hope they had insurance at least.


Life is pretty good. I have a wonderful family, a good job, and a decent house. Can't complain!

You know there is one thing that might make it even better.

Well I am not expecting anything else. Everything feels great for me now.

Yea, but have you ever experienced wings before?


I have the car packed, the food packed in a cooler, and the car inspected and filled with fuel. Ready for vacation!

its hard for me to sleep the night before a trip, even though I am an adult. ha ha.

lol, the kid in you is always ready for Disneyland


One time there was a stray cat hiding from a dog in my front door

That's amazing! He probably loves you so much


I love the new apartment I moved into, but the only down side is I can hear traffic all night long. It's so annoying!

I remember my first city apartment, the lights and sirens. It can be difficult.

Yeah, right? It seems like they never stop, and not to mention the people who feel the need to make their cars as loud as possible.

I don't think they know about mufflers! You should try white noise and black out curtains.


When I was younger, I went on a trip to my cousins ski home in New York. I am from Florida and didn't know any better and stuck my tongue to a frozen pole when one of my cousins dared me to. I dont recommend it.

Oh no, that classic prank! I bet that was painful, I've only seen it on movies.

Haha well fortunately my cousin was like "Oh [BLEEP] I didnt think you were actually going to do it. [BLEEP]" He was like, dont move not even a millicentimeter, Ill be right back!! And came back with a warm sponge and warm water!

Haha, wow, that's awesome.  Sort of makes up for him playing that prank on you.


i created this math formula yesterday for uniquely identifying words! and i am so happy with myself

it seperates the ascii values of each character and adds them up to give a number, then it divides  them by their length and then it does something else which i will keep a secret :P

Oh that's easy peasy.  Sometimes I only have to wipe once when I go number 2.


I recently ran by an ad online for this online swimsuit store. It seemed to be based outside of the US so I was a bit skeptical to order from them. I ordered anyway and will wait to see what happens.

where is it shipping from? is it a reputable store?

It was advertised on facebook, and others were commenting on it complaining about the sizing being off quite a bit, so I assumed they had gotten what they purchased, you know?

yeah. hopefully you will have better luck with it.


I am! My friends are throwing me a party :)


so i went to the gym the other day and i was using a traidmill and somebody told me "get off the traidmill fat ***"

what???? That's terrible!! what a horrible person!

i was so furious! I'm not even that fat! that was so mean

I bet! I mean you pay for gym membership, you can stay on any equipment as long as you want!


The birds in my neighborhood all gather on my fence if I haven't feed them that day.

All kinds, Wrens, sparrows, blue  jays, wood peckers.  I feel very protective and cannot help but take care of them. I will feel sad when I move. I like feeding all critters


It was my birthday and my friends sent me birthday cards in the mail. I received all of them but not the one who contained a gift card. i'm so angry about it

Ugh, oh no.... is there someway you can have the person who sent it call the gift card to see what can be done?

I don't want to bother her about it. but i did call usps and they will investigate it

True true, well im glad they are looking into it for you. I hope they find it!


I was at the grocery store today and a very young bag boy helped an older man run his food card. He was having such a hard time.

That was so nice of him! That's not common to hear about young people

Not in my neighborhood especially. The old guy took awhile. I didn't mind. He can't help it! It was nice to see people helping eachother to do things.

The world needs more people willing to help others.


I like to do that for people when they don't expect it or when they need it most


I find queuing at the supermarket very frustrating

I do as well, how long does it take you to do it?

Not really very long, but it's the other people who annoy me!

that makes sense, but I guess everyone needs food!


I never knew pizza from the gas station could be so good.

The only pizza I have ever had at the gas station was some pizza from 7/11. Where have you had it at?

Just a little place near my house. It was so good. We are gonna get it again today.


My armadillo pooped on the rug last night.

I do! That little stinker always poops on the rug. I was so angry!


I feel bad I don't always get to go through bad things and full get healed.

Do you mean you feel bad that you don't get to go through bad things or that you don't get to be healed?

Well I hate going through anything bad..but I never get to go through the process of it and get healed because I have someone who was around me during the worst times of my life who took that away from me and made the focus be on them..which disrupted my process of grief and healing

That stinks :(  I'm sorry it's so hard for you.


Congratulations on your graduation! You must be so proud.

I felt like i could do anything! So many people supporting me!

It's nice to have supportive people around you. It really builds up your confidence.


Sometimes an old song runs through my head and I remember the times where I used to listen to songs so many times that I memorized the words

That sounds nice. It's always good to remember better times. What kind of music?

Like old kind of emo songs, full of angst and whatnot

Ha, I used to listen to that stuff back in high school. The My Chemical Romance gets me every time.


One time I went to my friends 16th birthday party.  When I was walking in her house I ran smack into their glass door.  It was so clean that I didn't see it.

LOL..just my pride.  I was mortified and the funny part is that later on I won the door prize

Hahahah! Im dying! Im glad you werent hurt.


i am really happy about the weather today

Glad for you, it's cloudy and humid here.


I think I have some pretty decent kids. May be too soon to tell though.

Oh, all kids are a little iffy, I think. Are you a teacher or do you mean your own children?

My oldest is 13. She is the worst. But my 2 and 3 year old are perfect lol

Teenagers are awful! I am really looking forward to my daughter becoming a teenager....not.

lol. she is upset about everything all of time. I couldnt have been that way lol

My mom put "the curse" on me. She said she hopes my daughter acted 10 times worse than I did. If that's the case, I need to start saving for boarding school, because I was awful!

That's hilarious. Maybe II was terrible too then.


I went back to work for my former company recently. They laid me off a few years ago when things were tough. Coming back was a little scary but I was thrilled!

That is awesome!  I would be really excited if I were in yyour shoes!

Yes, that's exactly how I felt. I suspected they'd been in trouble for a while so when they asked me to come back and help them out it felt really good.

I hope you go far in your job!  Good luck!


Have you ever participated in any races, half or full marathons?

I have not! I used to run a lot for soccer practices. Have you?

I have not either! My best friend recently recovered from a broken leg and just completed her first full marathon, it was inspirational!


i was devistated my my dog sammy died last week

he was 13..he was an old man..he died of old age

I am sure you had good times. Will you get another dog?


I'm finally done drawing this character for a contest. I think I'm happy with it now.

That's cool, I'm pretty bad at drawing, but you must be pretty good.

Yea, I'm self-taught. Got into it because I like reading comics and like the art.

That's awesome, I hope you win the contest.


My top recommendation, is that if you have multiple kids, find a babysitter when you grocery shop.

I'm just about to have my second child! Shopping with one is tough, getting a sitter sounds like a great idea!

Kids have a very finite amount of patience. And the more you bring, the longer it takes. Also, they wear each other down.

Shopping with kids sounds like a nightmare! Thanks for the great tip!


I am so thankful for everything in my life right now.


I asked my friend to get some stuff for a party, I knew he'd come through though.

It is always nice to be able to rely on friends when you need them most.

Yes I agree, we've been friends for a long time so I had faith in him.

I hope the party turned out to be a great success because of his help.


I'm going on a date tonight. I'm pretty nervous

That's great!  Don't be too nervous!  Your date is most likely just as nervous as you are!

Just try to have a fun time and let what happens, happen!


My landlord didn't want to repair the ceiling. He take the rent but he doesn't want to make any reparations.

I would be so frustrated.  Do you have any way to make him do the necessary fixes?

I can sue him but it can be a very long process. I am looking to move to another appartment. This is making very mad.

I don't blame you!  It might cost more to sue than to break the lease and move.


Pizza is my favorite food.   WHat toppings did you use?

That sounds so delicious.  If I had known you made a pizza I would definitely be over at your house for dinner.


i always question my ability and when that happens i envy people.

Does that at least inspire you to improve your abilities?

yes but it just feels bad to not be able to feel confident in myself and my abilities


what an odd memory to crop up. my dog jetted outside anytime he could and one night managed to get out and the car that hit him had no time to stop.. dark and right in front of our house.

Oh no, that's awful!  What happened to your dog?

years ago I think I was in middle school at the time, he'd gotten out and met his fate when a car couldn't stop in time. It's an odd memory to pop up. maybe because i've just seen a bunch of pet posts from my friends on fb.

Sorry to hear that.  That must have been tough at that age.


I'm planning to buy a house in 2 years. Right now we live in a small apartment but i really want a nice house with a big backyard!

thank you! I've been working really hard for the past 3 years so i hope we will find a right house

I am sure you will get there, I meant to say. Don't rush or settle and I am sure you will find something perfect. We bought our first house on Friday!


it gets better with time but it must be hard


One time I bought a scratch lottery ticket and I didn't win anything!

Yes, I was off by one number. I was going to be a millionaire!

Oh! So close. Just to think about that missed opportunity.


My mom is having weight loss surgery next week, I'm nervous.

What kind of operation is it? I'm unfamiliar with weight loss surgery. But typically surgeries like that are very safe, but it is natural to feel nervous about someone you care about.

She is having gastric bypass surgery, I feel like it would be too dangerous due to her medical state. She wont listen to me!

Well, everyone is entitled to their own life choices. I'm sure she'll be alright.


Last month my car threw a rod and needed to have the engine overhauled, leaving me without a way to get to work and back.

Oh no, are you able to afford the repair for it?

Well, a friend of mine let me borrow his car for a entire month while mine was repaired. He just tossed me the keys and said bring it back when your done.

What a great friend you have. Definitly get him a gift when you are done.


Sometimes I'll forget to feed my dog. I can't help but feel bad about it...

Can't you just leave food out? Or set an alarm on your phone?


I applied for a job that would allow me to work at home because I suffer from Lupus. I didn't end up getting it so its a bummer.

That too bad. They are other work from home opportunities though.

I've been hunting and have gotten a lot of different ideas from people I asked but either there was nothing in my area or I needed a different qualification.  Its disheartening, but I'll keep searching.

You will find something. Just don't give up


I hate getting ghosted on Tinder. It happens fairly often.

It's just so shallow. They start talking to a better looking guy and instantly drop me no matter how close we get.


I am scared of another hurricane coming through Florida. I had a bad experience last year.

that is horrible, natural disaster are the worst because you cant do anything against them

No, all you can do is try to prepare. Do you live anywhere where there is threat of natural disasters?

not really, the worst thing that can happen where i live is a thunderstorm


I went to the park and read a book today.

That sounds like a nice and relaxing day. What book were you enjoying?

I was reading my favorite, A Catcher in the Rye. It was so nice having a day off and doing what I enjoy.

It's really cool to have those moments where you get to enjoy what you like to do.


A friend of mine challenged me and said I couldn't eat an entire bag of jelly beans. I'm super competitive and had to prove her wrong.

Oh my, did you get a sugar rush after that? Your dentist must love you.

I had such a sugar rush and then crashed hard after hah! I felt like I had to brush my teeth for an hour that night.

That's not surprising, but now your friend knows that you are the undisputed champion.


I was happy to see my friend got engaged

Yeah! They've been dating for a couple years so it's a happy time for them now

I wish them the best! Have fun at the wedding!


i was shocked how nice the weather has been the past couple days

Same here, I'm in Texas.  Where are you located

Nice! I used to live in St. Paul, MN.  Weather's like a tundra which is why I'm down here


I have my annual evaluation next week.  I hope I get a raise, fingers crossed.

I work in Plant Operations for a hospital.

You deserve a large raise, health care is hard work!


My neighbor has a much better car than me and I wish I had it.

Try not to be too envious!  What kind of car is it that you want so bad?

It is a Mazda RX8 and it is one of my favorite cars.

I guess you can just start trying to save for it.  Don't be jealous or it will eat you up inside!


I like to wear my fathers watch that I inherited. Its a nice reminder of him.

That is a nice way to remember him. Its good that you have something of his to keep his memory alive.

It really makes me feel like he is right there with me sometimes.


One time I saw a giant cockroach under my desk!

omg! I hate cockroaches, they are ugly insects

Yes! they are so creepy with how fast and nasty they are1

were you able to kill it? what did you do?

Well done. I hope you dont find anymore, they are scary.


I have a doctor appointment tomorrow for a check up.

Yeah, I'm worried that he might find something wrong. I don't know what but the possibility is always there.

Think positively. Stressing yourself out can definitely cause a problem


I walked into class yesterday fully unprepared for our final exam.

Oh no!  What happened?  Do you think you did ok anyway?

I did terrible, I will most likely have to take the course again.

That's sad to hear :(  That happened to me before and I came out ok in the end, I'm sure you will too :)


oh i got hot. mild is not worth buying. i cnt wait til they get here

I prefer mild wings. Did you order them fromore a pizza place?

there is a wing place near me. the lemon pepper one are good too


A camaro. I want a new car. Mine is over 15 years old

wow camaros are awesom.i just got a new suv


2 people escaped from jail in my town tonight!

I know right? And the last sighting of them was in my neighborhood!

man thats really disheartening, you should type faster  tho


Just a few more hours until the work shift is over

I feel you man.  I'm off in 1 hour and 11 minutes.  tick tock.

Its a small world... maybe we even work at the same place.


I caught my dog trying to eat my nephew's dirty diaper that my brother left on the couch

Oh man, that's funny and terrible at the same time.

It was really gross. I had to keep my dog from licking my face for a long time after that.

Yeah, I would keep away from him for another 2 months or so.


I cleaned the refridgerator out the other day and I found something that had gone very very bad.

Oh that's never a good situation. It happens to the best of us though. I need to clean my fridge

I put it off too long this time. It was pretty stinky, my dogs thought I was nuts for throwing food away.

I'm sure they were thinking waste not, want not. haha


I was disappointed with the new Mario Tennis game, it did not live up to my expectations

Oh. How was it different to the previous ones?

It was more robust, but not enough of an improvement


I am so happy with my life currently, I am able to stay at home with my children and watch them grow, I would not change it for anything

Ahhhh thats amazing! I stay home with my kids too! How many kids do you have?

I have 2 little boys aged 2 and 4, soon to be 3 and 5 and ugh it can be challenging at times, but totally worth it!

It definitely can be a challenge. I have a 10 year old boy, an 8 year old girl, and a 2 year old girl. I love being home with them.


At work I am the most confident man ever, maybe because I've worked there so long.

There's nothing wrong with that. Unless you're mean

No, I'm very friendly, it's just I wish I was that way outside of work.

Maybe you shoud pretend you are still at work until you get the hang of it.


I'm going to Ireland next month for 8 days. I have never been, I can't wait!

Yeah I'm excited. I hope it's as beautiful as I imagine.

It probably is, at least you get to experience another culture.


My daughter won the spelling bee. All her hard work paid off!

Yes she's only in second grade. i hope she keeps it uo


Started cutting my grass the other day and my pull cord fell off and got chewed up under the mower

Oof that sucks. Sorry about that. I dont like cutting my grass so my front door is covered in pink papers from city citations. oof

That might cost you a pretty penny. Luckily it left just enough cord so I could tie another piece on to that piece and I can still start it now.

Nothing like redneck engineering. Did you use Flex tape.

No, had enough to tie another cord to what wasn't chewed up. luckily

Oh darn I really like those infomercials, wanted to know how the stuff worked.

that stuff cost about 25 dollars, so I doubt I will be trying that out anytime soon

Actually it costs 15 dollars where I'm located.


I don't understand people sometimes. I talk to girls and things are going well and then they suddenly ghost me.

I know, even the ones that I fool around with ghost me sometimes which blows my mind.


I have fun plans this weekend over a friends house.

My friend is having a drink and paint party. I've only been to one before but it was pretty fun. I can't wait.

Wow, that sounds like a fun and interesting time, but it sounds like there are a high chance for things to go south and be a huge mess


im just sitting here with my cat in my lap and thinking about all the money in my bank account. life is good

That's fantastic! Have you been working extra hard to earn it all, or did it come to you some other way?

let's just say it's mine to keep, and now everything is taken care of. i dont have a care in the world

Wow! I'm really happy for you- that must be such a great feeling of peace.

yeah and now my cat gets the nice treats

Hahah! I bet your cat get spoiled plenty!


I've got this big tote of photos that need to be organized.  But I can only seem to work on it for a few minutes at a time unfortunately.

Yep, but every time I start I get stopped by the tears that come when I see the pictures of our girls when they were small.

Aw. I do that too. I still have my old cell phones with videos of mt babies doing nothing lol


You ever have one of those moments where it's supposed to be very challenging, but then it seems like you've been ready for it for years?

Yes, it's like that all the time for me.

I felt like that when I took my boards to become a PA. I blew through that test in record time.

That is great. I stress myself out over things and I think by doing that it makes things worse.

It does! The biggest hurdle in difficult tasks is always yourself, I think.

That is very true. Congratulations on passing your test.


I was watching jeopardy with my friend the other day, and the cateogry was british literature.

Did you know all the answers?  I wouldn't be too good at it.

Lol I didn't know squat, but my buddy knew every freaking question!

Wow, impressive!  I'd have to get some category like Kids or Nutrition to know much of anything. ha ha


I really wish I could singer better, like Michael Jackson.

that would be cool. do you have singing experience ?

so am i .im a guitar player, not a singer


Tomorrow we celebrate my daughters 16th birthday. I can remember when she was 6 and obsessed with unicorns. Time moves so quickly.

Definitely.  We have planned this party for a long time and we're going to get her a used car in the morning that she's contributing money to as well.  It seems crazy that my daughter is driving!

Haha, Good for her! She is becomeing more independent! Do you know what kind of car?


I brought my car to the garage for a simple oil change last week. When I went to pick it up they had done $600 of repairs. I can't believe it!

You can't believe they did it without asking or that the car needed the repairs?

The car was a 2014! I didn't think it needed much of anything, I told them they were crazy and that I wasn't paying it!

Wow I hope everything works out for you!


My embarassing moment is when our thermostat was broken and my boss came in, and I had my shirt off. Only problem I guess is it would have been weird if he had had a client with him.

Yeah, insurance. No client though thankfully.

Thank goodness. You really dodged a bullet on that one


Me too! This heat in Texas is killing me.

Yes, I have family in Nashville and they said it's been hot!


I am ready to finally leave my job, I have been here for about 3 years with no promotion, I need to get out

You sure do. You sound under appreciated

I believe so, I have called out twice in 3 years, and cover for everyone else

You deserve better. Find something before you leave though


I am sorry to hear that. Why was it a bummer?

I was planning on going to a concert but ended up not going at the last minute because I didn't want to go by myself. I feel like I'm going to regret not going.

That really stinks. I bet you felt really lonely and filled my regret.


My power lifting coach bench pressed 650 pounds for 3 reps. I couldn't believe my eyes!

Wow! He houldl do competitions. I have only seen that on TV

He does actually, he goes to power lifting meets pretty regularly and breaks records! He's amazing.

Must have been pretty cool to watch. How much do you bench press?


My little brother just got sentanced to prison

He stole a car... and got caught driving it.

Well maybe this will teach him a lesson and he'll come out of prison a new man.


I moved out of my beach community in Los Angeles because it was so expensive, I don't know how my remaining friends there exist!

Theyre clearly fatcats, thats how. Where did you move to?

New Orleans. It's a fun city but it's not as nice as California. One of my friends in LA is just a teacher and goes to Hawaii all the time. I've never been.

isnt california like really hot? Im not sure if id be able to tolerate the temperature to be honest, do you intend to move back to los angeles in the future?

It's nice at the beach, like 85 degrees. A cold day is 55, which are rare. I'd like to move back but can't ever imagine paying 2400 for renting a box.

i pay 160 euros a month for my apartament lol, 2400 is insanity tbh. and 85 degrees is like 30c D: that is so hot!

Haha, it feels perfect to me.  Your rent sounds affordable, I'll bet you have healthcare, too.

i actually dont, my country decided to illegally deny it to me, but most people do. you could move to EU if you really wanted to, rent sure would be way more afforadable regardless of which country you pick


I do not like being around cats, they scare me.

I was the same way about dogs for a long time. Did something happen to make you dislike cats?

I was attacked by one when I was little.

That's what happened with me and dogs. I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you can find a different animal companion!


Family went out of town today. Since I start school soon, I couldn't go with them. House is empty, just hear some outside noises of passing cars and some birds. Feels a little like I was abandoned, even though no one had any other choice to do anything other than what they did. Oh well

oh im so sorry you felt this way! I hope your mood will get better. maybe watch a good comedy?

That's not bad advice. Maybe I should do something to take my mind off things. And yeah, it will eventually. Nobody's fault, so I shouldn't be brooding

i understand how you feel though. i would feel lonely but i would definitely do something fun like play video games or watch movie


I dont think I can ever go back to that same store after what I witnessed the other day

I was shopping and had to use the bathroom, but when I went in, someone had had an accident.  It was a mess and smelled horrible.  It was so gross and i thought i was going to be sick

oh goodness. where you able to make it out of there without getting sick or dirty?


yesterday i ate a whole big bag of M&Ms, i don't feel proud of myself

Oh my gosh that's insane. Well, I'm sure you'll be able to control your impulses in the future.

i hope so, i was doing so well on my diet but I feel like I failed

I've been there before too. The important thing to remember is that there is always another chance to make it right tomorrow.


When i go to work all my co workers always talk about other women even though they are all married. they always laugh at me when i say i don't care about other women because i love my wife

Im sorry to hear that! Are they trying to shame or embarrass you about something.

they just say that men can't be faithful, that all of us cheat and stuff like that. It's not true! I mean i really can't imagine cheating on my wife

You seem like a trusting guy. there are not too many of those these days


Wow, my friend just reminded me of such a bad childhood memory.

When i was younger I had a sleepover party and when I was asleep I wet the bed.  When I woke up everyone was pointing and laughing at me.  It was such a bad experience for a kid.

that can be so traumatizing. i'm so sorry.


Someone I live with is mentally disabled and doesn't know how to say no...so sometimes weird men come and talk to him and they swear..and smoke on my property and throw their buts on trash my property and it makes me very angry

It is such a lack of respect to go on anyone's property and behave that way.


I had this girlfriend only a few months ago and she was always so honest and kind, it really made me trust her and care about her. Things didn't work out but that's okay.

I'm so sorry to hear that. At least you enjoyed your time with her in the moment?

Yeah it was a lot of fun, I'm glad it happened even though it made me sad.

Well, hey. At least there's plenty more fish in the sea. Maybe the next one will be the one.


I am so happy that the preseason for football starts tomorrow, the Eagles play tomorrow, that is awesome

I enjoy football, but I mainly enjoy that when football happens, fall comes.

That is true, the only down side is my job gets busier


That is such a great age.  Is he doing well?

Yeah he's going to play football this year!


I absolutely hate olives. The other day I was eating a salad I got from Whole Foods and somehow a stray black olive was in there. >:(

Eww! I really hate olives also. What things do you like in your salad?

I really like mixed greens with shredded carrots, onions, broccoli, almonds or pumpkin seeds, avocado...ah I could go on and on!

I'm just a plain salad person, but I do like my bacon bits and croutons in a salad. Also some carrots.


We had a departmental meeting at work recently that made me feel really anxious.  We're trying to figure out who our new department head should be.

I think you will be fine. Don't feel too anxious worrying won't do anything

One of the candidates is someone who makes a bunch of us miserable, so we're worried they will get the job.

prayer works for me. I hope it does for you too so that person you just talked about won't get the job


My little boy has come far with his speech and I am so proud of him.

He's been getting speech therapy since he was 1.

I'm glad he's getting better with his speech and I hope he continues to improve!


I was driving down the highway during a heavy thunderstorm and two cars crashed in front of me and one flipped over.

Oh my goodness! That is scary! Are you alright? Did anyone get hurt?

Yeah im alright, i was far enough to steer clear of the chaos. The guy that flipped had to get carried by ambulance, but he didn't look very injured. and the other guy was ok.

Whew! You are lucky! Glad to hear everyone was ok.


My best friends invited me to a camping trip but I was a little anxious about the whole thing.

I don't blame  you because I hate camping.

Really? I was just really scared of getting bitten by a tick. I ended up enjoying the trip in the end!


My friend is having a drink and paint party for her birthday tomorrow.

I bet you are excited... are you bringing anything over with you?

Sounds yummy! Thats a good choice. Have a great time.


I'm in school right now and unable to pay for much since most of my money goes towards bills and that's it. My girlfriend is out of school and working, and so when we do go out, she has to pay a lot of the time. I feel bad for making her do that, but I don't have much of a choice

Aw, you shouldn't feel bad!  At some point you'll have more cash and do the treating.  There's a lot of give and take in relationships.

Yeah, I know, I just hate people paying for me, or feeling like a burden. That's like my #1 thing. But it's weird to say "no, we can't go do this fun thing just because of me, even though you want to." So it's a rock and a hard place. I guess I will just have to look forward to when I can return the favor

I totally get it.  I bet you think about it way more than she does, though I don't know if that makes you feel any better lol


Yesterday was a very hard day, in addition to drama, I felt so alone.

I'm really sorry to hear that :( What happened? I'm here for you if you wanna talk

Relationship drama. Someone who has a lot of mental and emotional issues, thats why I live alone and don't see many so it can get hard on days like the weekend.

Have you tried seeing a specialist? Or if you are religious to talk to the pastor?


My niece can't swim but has is staying with us for a bit and we have a pool.  Her skills are increasing and her confidence is soaring!

thats awesome .. how long has she been learning?

Just today and yesterday.  She is 8 and hasn't had access to water as she lives in the mountains.  She has gone from not being able to touch the bottom with her hand to picking up dive sticks and even swimming over the ladder in the deep end.


Hindsight and all that - do you miss her?

Yes a lot.  I've accepted it but it's hard letting go

Perhaps she may forgive you?  It's always worth a try, sometimes you just need some time and some growth before you can revisit mistakes that have happened.


I was chased by a pitbull as a child, I was so scared for years afterwards

that is so scary! you didn't get hurt, right?

I was a fast kid so I got away, but I had heard how hard they bite


I am very happy. My son was top of the class, this year.

Yes, I am. I bought him to new bike as a reward.

That should motivate him to keep up the good work!


I sure hope so, do you think he is a determined and intelligent person?

Nice, you must be proud of him being your brother.


I am having a nice afternoon on my computer here, having some nice chats with people.

That sounds so wonderful.  I am having a similarly relaxing day too.

I bet.  I have a secret though.  I am in love with this person I have been chatting with.


I'm so shocked, my pants fell down in public


I am ok making average money in my life.

oddly enough so am I. I just want to be comfortable. How do you feel about that?

As long as I can pay my bills I am happy.

That's very good, do you feel content at the moment?


I had a roommate in my dorm who didn't clean up his dorm room at the end of the semester and the school fined me and the other two roommates $100. I was furious at that guy.

Did you try to get the money from him? He sounds like a pretty bad person.

Yeah we tried but he cut all communication, he didn't respond to his phone number or anything. I hope he got fined a larger amount so it teaches him a lesson on laziness.

I do too! People like that make me never want to have a roommate!


I stepped out of my front door this morning... and right into an unpleasant surprise that my neighbor's dog left for me.

Ugh! I use to have the same problem with my neighbors dog who would poop in my driveway! At least it was my tires and not my feet that got the unpleasant surprise.

Yeah.... the smell was so bad. It took forever to get that off of my shoe.

Does this happen often? I'd let my neighbor know about it.


I went for a walk yesterday and stepped in some dog poop, gross.

Lol! The real question is...was the poop fresh or old? I hate that shit, no pun intended

It was fresh I think, I was wearing flip-flops too.


When I was younger, my best friend and I worked together.  She ended up getting the promotion that we both wanted.

I am sorry that must have been tough.  She probably felt bad for you.

I'd been working there longer so it really stung.  Our friendship survived though!

That is great because friendships are very important


I made sure to study really hard for my CPA exam. I took the exam last week and thought I knew all the answers.

Well I was right because I found out my score today and I passed. I am so glad I studies so hard!

Way to, it really pays off to study, and a CPA thats impressive


I wab blessed enough to be able to see two of my daughters graduate from high school. I couldn't be more happy for them.

Oh, that's wonderful!  Tell them congratulations for me! You must be bursting with pride!

I sure am! They are so excited to be starting a great new chapter in their lives.

Do they have any aspirations yet or are they just figuring out life?


i farted in a barnes and noble once and someone smelled it.

haha I guess so. But they knew it was me...

Atleast it wasn't in class at a college or something, right?

yeah you're right I shouldn't feel so bad then.

I wouldn't sweat it, chances are you won't see any of those people again right? Even if you do, it's unlikely they'll remember you let alone your smelly fart.


My girlfriend has been saving up money for years. Last month she finally bought the fanciest car of her dreams with all of that money.

Yeah she's very patient and frugal. She really knows what she's doing.

Well done to her. I  hope she enjoys the reward


Oh? Is it a family, group, or some other meaningful photo?

OH! haha, well you learn something new every day. Noodles sounds good though


A few years back I moved to a new state.  Now my childhood best friends and I live in different parts of the country and I don't know anyone really where I am.

I really do.  I mean we're in constant contact over the internet through instant messaging and video calls.  But it's not often that we all can get together and see each other in person.

Yea. Seeing each other on a screen definitely can't beat being with each other in person.


Every year I plan to start working on Christmas early so it's not so crazy when the month of December actually gets here.

Yes, I started today as a matter of fact.  I'm praying it all goes smoothly this year.


My toddler is learning how to talk and what objects are called. The other day he was at my parents house and came out of his room with a stuffed giraffe and told everyone, "look, giraffe!"

He is 2 and a half. He was born a month early too, so when he hits milestones its always really cool for us.

Amazing! Congratulations. When so many children have issues, it is always great to see one that is healthy and well.


I couldn't believe how nice that car was!  She did really well getting that new car.

Oh that's cool, having a nice new car always feel so sleek and cool.

Yeah and she bought it the day of our trip so we didn't have to worry about driving an older ride.  Worked out great.


I am so mad that my boss made me work Saturday.

Oh that sucks!  Why did he/she make you work??

Cause he is mean and doesn't care about anyone expect himself.

Yeah I've worked for bosses like that in the past.  At least you get overtime?


my brother moved to another state for work 6 months ago and hes been home sick. im going to make a suprise visit  with a massive care package with things from home that he misses

Aw that sounds sweet. You're wonderful for doing that and I'm sure you can't wait to get there!

i cant wait. im taking my mother with me too. he will love it im sure


I'm worried that if my Aunt doesn't answer her phone, I won't be able to give her the keys so she can babysit for me this weekend.

Yes, I am going on a business trip by my son has an important tennis match this weekend. I don't know what I'll do if my Aunt doesn't answer soon.

Hopefully, she answers soon. Maybe she's taking a nap or is in the shower.


I decided to treat myself tonight and make grill a huge steak for myself tonight.

Yeah it would have been if I hadn't burned it to a crisp and turned it into a black charred piece of leather!

Ohhhhhh yeah that's no good. Still that happens to me all the time so I wouldn't worry too much about it.


I'm looking forward to the Spanish Supercopa tonight

The winner of the Spanish league and the Spanish cup play against each other. Barcelona v Sevilla. It takes place tonight in Tangiers.


Quitting smoking was so much easier than I expected it to be!


I am feeling down tonight.  I am broke until next week.

Yeah.  I have some raman.  Thats all anyone really needs right?

Ramen is delicious! I eat them even when I'm not worrying about money.


I am so thankful that I am able to stay home with my child.

That is a blessing, i would like to do that


I one time lost my trunks in the pool! People saw me in a way I didn't want!

Oh no! That must have been super embarrassing! How did you react to that?

I covered my body and then went to the bathroom and got a towel!

My goodness, well I guess that happens to all of us at least once.


I'm so happy to have my son in my life, he has taught me a lot about life in general.

That's so amazing. It's an incredible thing to be a parent!

Right, so many hidden appreciations you learn!


My friends put together a graduation party for me and I had no idea!

It was, it was nice to be able to see everyone and relax.


"I haven't been following my healthy eating regiment as strictly as I should.

Why not, have you have many temptations?  I know how difficult it can be at times to eat healthy, I struggle to do it too.

Yeah. Carbs like pasta and bread get me every time.

I know, fresh bread is a big temptation to me, and what about sweets and desserts, do you have a weakness for those too?


Can you tell me about your recent experience?

i couldnt believe it when i heard they are making even more new star wars movies

Yeah, I love Star Wars. I was sad when Han Solo died. He was my favorite character!


One of my much younger sister's is starting college in a couple weeks. I am so excited for her.

That is awesome. Do you know what she wants to study?

She told me she wants to become a dentist, but she's a little fickle. I will see what she says she wants to do in a year.

As long as it is something she enjoys. I am sure you are very proud of her!


Last week I really had to rely on my friend to keep his word.

That is a good test of friendship.  Did he keep his word?

Yes in the end, he showed up and help me fix my car. I am really glad that he did.

It is such a blessing to have good friends on whom you can depend.


It is not cool to play loud music at 3 am during the week

That would certainly make me upset too, was it your neighbors?

Their guests playing music from their car. Sor rude

Very annoying, I would consider getting the police to pay a visit even.


My friend speaks 4 languages. I'm sure they'll get that interpreter job at the embassy

That is very impressive. Do you know what languages they are?

Yea. English of course, then French, Spanisha and Chinese.

wow, I bet Chinese is one the State Department really needs right now. I hope your friend gets the job.


She refused me but then a few days later I saw her and she was embarrassed of her lie. I was shorter and younger than the other guy.

Yeah. I put her through hell that school year. Made up all sorts of rumors


My daughter spent the sumer studying so that she will do well this year

thats good.its very important to instill good learning and study habbits. something i wish i had as kid

I think she is going to really shine this year


I'm going to be really upset if I get passed over for another promotion. I've paid my dues.

That is so hard, to feel like you've been looked over. Have you been able to have conversations with leadership as to why that might be the case?

Yeah, but nothing seems to change. After you talk to them things go back to normal and other people get rewarded.

Does that make you curious to look elsewhere? It sounds like it's maybe not the best place?


Good for you! I have heard many great things about keto. How are you finding it?

It's good so far. I was overwhelmed at first, but I rented some books from the library and got a Kindle Unlimited subscription to find some recipes and info.

Props to you for researching the diet without understanding how it works. Some people are just looking for ways to lose weight fast, but putting in effort goes a long way.


I miss my childhood friends. We were so close and always playing together.

I miss mine too. Where did you guys grow up?

We grew in Hochelaga, Montreal. Some of them moved to another city or country.

Canada is such a beautiful country. Was there a lot of things to do there for you kids?


The government is increasing taxes again. They keep increasing taxes without explain why. Most of our taxes are stolen by them.

Excatly! I would love to know what they spend it all on

It is making me very angry. I am sure that most of them have found a way to not pay taxes.

Yup, they cheat the system and then get a huge refund back


My boyfriend and I did a lot around the house last weekend. It was nice he didn't have to work. Come monday morning I knew I was really gonna miss him.

That's so nice! He sounds like a keeper!

Yes he is. I'm glad he is so understanding about my clingyness. I don't work so I'm alone alot.

I'm glad you guys found each other. He sounds like a nice guy.


I am such a failure, I didnt even climb to the top of the ladder

Just to the top of the roof, so nothing crazy, I just felt so weak


I accidentally spilled my drink on my friend at dinner

Well, it made me want to sink into the floor. I don't like being the center of attention

(*oops).  I hope you apologized to him.  If it was milk, I wouldn't cry over it too much.  ;)


Last year when the hurricane came, we spent weeks gathering supplies and boarding up the house.

That's sounds like a very smart and effective safety precaution. Was it enough to adequately defend your family?

It was! I was thankful we did so much in anticipation for the hurricane!

Did you end up feeling like you had stronger defenses than the hurricane had strength when it reached your area? I mean in an overprotected kind of way.


It's very strange when you meet somebody you know, in the middle of a megalopolis.


My partner leaves abroad for work for long periods of time. I am always respectful and never do anything that would hurt our relationship.

Thats a strong relationship , im happy to hear people like you still exist in this world

Yeah, I wish I could say the same thing about some of my friends. They even brag about cheating sometimes.

thats disgusting , then why even be in a relationship waisting someones time


My boyfriend came home from his trip two days early!

What a nice surprise! Did something happen or did he miss you!?

His business trip wrapped up a few days earlier than planned.

I see.I bet you and him are happy to be able to spend a little time together.


I had one beer left when I got home and spilled the whole thing right after I opened it.

Oh no!  That is disappointing.  Did you have to run out and get more?

Well, I guess one night without beer is not going to kill you.


I'm trying to cook a new dish for the first time. I think its going to turn out well.

Venison wellington... Its like beef wellington with Deer backstrap instead of a fillet.


My girlfriend moved in last weekend.  I really feel like this is the right move for the next steps for us and our relationship.

That's great! How long have you two been together?

Almost a year.  We're a little bit older though so I dont feel like its a rush into a relationship sort of thing.

You learn a lot about someone when you move in with them, so if you feel comfortable in your relationship I think that's actually rather prudent.


I was sad as a kid when my pants fell down in class, everyone laughed at me

Oh yeah, that is pretty embarrassing! But just imagine if you watched that happen to someone else. You would probably be laughing too. Lol

Yeah I definitely would have at that age haha

It would be pretty embarrassing too if it happened as an adult..... and I guess pretty funny watching it too.


ill try not to laugh, i promise.  Tell me about it!

I done walked on one of them slippy spots on the side walk there. It had ice on it and so I slipped and fell right down.


My grandmother is moving into a retirement community in town after 30 years of living in another state.  I can't wait to be able to visit her all the time!

Yeah, her health hasn't been great the last couple of years, unfortunately, so I can't wait to do everything I can to bring her up to par.

Is the place nice? Have you seen it yet?

It is very nice and half the price of the place she has been living, so she is in a good position.

Well that's good. You guys will enjoy each other.


Has he passed or does he just live far away?

he has passed away, and i just feel alone

I can only imagine.  Are you close with your mother?


Our team have achieved the best project in IT department.

It is about using artificial intelligence in processing client claim to detect fraud.


i wanna sell my phone so i posted ad on craigslist. i have 3 potential buyers but i'm so scared to meet them . you never know what people intentions are

Have you ever sold on Craigslist before? I always have the people meet me in the Walmart parking lot during the day. I have sold hundreds of things and have never had an issue like that.

I did but my husband was with me and now he is out of the country for a couple of months so  i will be alone

It will be okay. You could also have the people meet you at the local police station. The police do not mind and would rather you feel safe.


I am glad cause some antibiotics fixed my swollen gum.

I'm glad too. What made it swell up anyway?

Maybe not cleaning teeth properly, it was around a wisdom teeth that needs to come out or some work.

Oh I get that, I had that happen near one of my wisdom teeth too.


I went to get an apple this morning. It was rotting.

That's disappointing. I know how that goes. Its happened to be before

It was, it completely ruined my breakfast.


I rented out my bedroom to Airbnb customers and when I returned it was left smelly and diapers every where.

Oh, that is horrible. I am sorry that happened to you!

Its okay. I called a deep cleaning company to clean it up because I so disgusted by it.

I don't blame you, I wouldn't want to mess with that either.


My birthday is coming up later this week. I'm so excited!

Well Happy early Birthday!  I hope you enjoy it, when it comes.

Thank you so much! I can't wait to have a special cake.

A special cake sounds wonderful, and you're welcome.


Years ago my childhood beagle died from kidney failure.  I found him in the kitchen in the morning, he did not go easily :(

That's terrible.  Was he already very sick?

Yeah, he had diabetes for a few years by that point.  It was just a rough way to go and I hope it didn't take very long.


Its crazy to get news that can make you happy and scared at the same time!

My wife and I just found out that we are expecting our first child.  Its pretty exciting.  I gotta start saving up money now though.

That is exciting!  But you are write - children are expensive!


i am always outside my house beafore my friend gets here

Do you know he is coming, or is it just blind luck?

i know he is comming i just like to be there couple of mins before he arrives

That is very considerate of you, I bet he really appreciates that.


I was home by myself when the power went out and I heard a strange noise!

Oh, that sounds scary! Did you find out what it was?

No. I was too scared to look so I looked myself in my bedroom.

Well it was probably nothing to worry about because you seem alright now. :)


I've been practicing this piece for months. I think I'm ready to play it in front of everyone.

I'll be playing Tchaikovsky on piano and flute.


I thought my job interview went well last week but I just found out I didn't get the job.

I know how you feel. Keep your head up. Start putting out more applicaitons.


I walked up on a snake in my backyard a few days ago.

Yeah, it startled me at first. Then I got a hoe and killed it.


I'm disgusted whenever I go over to my sister's house. I feel like she hasn't cleaned it in months.

That is indeed pretty gross. Perhaps you should help her clean it up?

I'm thinking about just paying a maid, I don't think I can handle all that mess.

I don't blame you, but we have to help our struggling siblings out!


I just found out that I got the job I have been hoping for!

I start training in 2 weeks. I just graduated college in the spring and this was my dream job.

Fantastic, keep your spirits up and the sky's the limit.


I found an old playlist on my phone today. It was like reliving a moment in my life.

Just imagine if you found a mix tape on an actual cassette


Ugh. I got some awful news the other day.

That's too bad. What happened? Is everyone OK?

I got news that my grandfather passed away. He was old but no one saw it coming.

Oh I'm so sorry to hear that. I hoep your family is strong enough to support you through this.


My wife and kids went to the beach this week and I miss the terribly.

i am sorry to hear that. But atleast they are having fun

Yeah, I'm glad for that, but I can't wait for them to come home on Saturday.

You should plan a surprise dinner for them and make their favorite dishes.


I am so glad I can talk to my parents about things

Good for you. I always had communication problems with my parents


Oh I feel the exact opposite! lol. What are you looking forward too?

not having to wake up at 4am to go to work!

OHH! That would be wonderful! Sleeping in is the best when you can do it!


i was excited when i saw i got tomorrow off!

That's awesome! Do you have anything special planned?

probably go to the movies and then dinner

That sounds like a nice relaxing was to spend your day. I hope you enjoy it!


Accounting jobs are usually high paying j.


My close friend whom I know for years and with whom i hang out a lot for fun is moving away to a different state. I feel lonely and don't know with whom to spend time if he is gone

That really stinks. Is there any way you'll be able to keep up with him to ease the sadness?

Well, we will definitely chat through social media or call each other. But physical distance is hard to overcome. Additionally, I am single and do not have a partner to be with

That's really rough, my friend. I am sure there must be other folks that you can befriend! There's plenty of nice and kind people in the world.


My girlfriend just left me, this is awful.

She wanted to try something new, she was bored of me.

It is, I don't know what to do anymore, any ideas?

Find a new girlfriend.  That ship has sailed.   If you're really still want her consider trying to play the jealousy card.  (ie; make her jealous)

I'm gonna do that, thank you for the advice. I could try to kiss someone else to make her mad.

You don't even have to do that. Keep it classy. Just show up with a pretty girl and have a good time and be a perfect gentleman.  Dont even bat an eye at her.


Hi, I recently did some research for my school.

It was about the different types of caffeine and their effects.

That's interesting, I'm not sure I even knew there were different types of caffeine. Is one type worse than the others?


Was supposed to go camping this past weekend, but it ended up storming like crazy

Oh, sometimes you just have to accept weather changing your plans. I am sure you can go another time.

It was the only weekend we were all off together.

That's a bummer. Well I hope you can find another weekend to make up for it.


I just celebrated my 30th birthday. My family gifted me with a cruise to Mexico with my sister.

I couldn't believe how thoughtful it was!


MY neighbors have been really nice since my car broke down

That's good. What have they done for you ?

they are letting my kids carpool to school. I will help them out when my car is fixed

How long do you think that it will take.


I can't wait to go to the amusement park again!

I think the roller coasters are my favorite thing.

I like the little roller coasters myself.


I give up on trying to figure out most women! I compliment her and give her my undivided attention and she pulls away. But the minute I start being unattached and talking to another lady she clings on desperately for my attention it drives me nuts hahaha


My boyfriend told me that he thought the girl that works at the gas station is cute.

It was terrible and it made me feel bad.

I can see why. Some people just don't know when to keep things to themselves.


I was crossing a wet road and slipped. I fell with a thud right on my rear end

Very funny. All I could do is sit there and laugh.


Met with my friend who I haven't seen in 4 years. Feels like we never left each other

Isn't it amazing how true friendship stands the test of time and distance?

Yea, it is. Good friends are really hard to find.

That's so true! I live 700 miles away from my best friend and when we get together it's just like old times.


Nice friend. All of mine have been gone for decades.

Oh wow. It is hard to find nice friends nowadays.

Sure is, last time I saw one was some time in the 90s.


I like to look back at times of my childhood.

They mostly are, at least the one's I chose to bring up.\

Well thats good. Some people aren't so lucky


My girlfriend has left town for the week and I miss her. It is annoying waiting for her return.

It's really tough, isn't it?  I'm just getting to the end of that with my wife, she's almost back.  What are you going to do with your time?

I've been mostly reading and watching stuff. I'm lucky that she's not into some of my shows because I don't have to wait for her to watch new episodes.

That's always good.  At least you have something to do.  It'll be over in no time!


When I was a little kid I almost drowned in front of 100 plus people...it kinda sucked but looking back it's kinda funny


beautiful friend of mine. i had gone to visit and walked in a room i normally put my coat when i get to her house and she was in various states of undress. i don't think you've ever seen anyone turn around and get out of a room so quickly.

very much so. we laugh about it now years later but yeah talk about turning 5 shades of red quickly!

Sounds like you learned to knock on the door first lol.


We are leaving for Hawaii in the morning!

Oh that sounds exciting. I've always wanted to go.

I've never left the continental US, nor have I ever flown so this is very exciting for me.

I've flown but not much and never left the country either. I hope y'all have fun :)


So I just moved to a new city and havent really made any friends here yet. Im really missing my friends and family back home.

Yea it seems nice and my job pays well. I really wish I had my friends to check out the city with.

How do your friends feel about the situation?


i was really sad when my dog died last year

That is hard thing to go through. I hope you are feeling better about it now.

yeah i have been over it for sometime now but it is till hard to talk about

I bet. Losing a pet is much like losing a loved one. It gets better but still hurts sometime.


I tripped and fell in front of some people.

That's a relatively quick recovery, fortunately.


I am happy with my current employer. even though am getting a new jon offers

That is good, maybe you can get a raise.

Yeah feel like it. I very content with the current one as well


The other day I accidentally stepped in dog feces.

Oh god. Someone did pick up their dog's poop, hu?

No, unfortunately not.  It really grossed me out.

It must've been. I hope that never happens to you again.


I was digging my nose thinking I was alone.


Had to attend a funeral of a family member in another state.  I haven't seen some of my family in a couple years or more.  It was nice getting to see them again.

It was nice seeing them dead right? Just kidding, I know you meant other people at the funeral haha

haha yeah.  I didn't really know the deceased that well but my closer family asked me to be a pallbearer.  It was about a 5 hour drive to get there so it wasn't bad.  Haven't seen those people in forever.


my husband started doing online work. it caught me off guard

i didn't expect him to start doing that. he knew i did it but never mentioned any interest in it.

That's good for you though, now you both get paid


I am optimistic about the results about my exam test. I think I did well!

Economics. I am hopeful I did well on it because I studied hard!


I ate an entire pepperoni pizza yesterday. That is not a part of my diet.

Don't feel guilty. We all slip sometimes.

That was a big slip. I don't even know why I ordered it. I was the only one home.


My son got straight A's in his summer class. I'm very happy about that.

That's great. Summer classes can be tough. Because its summer

Right! And they aren't too excited to go to them usually.

Well Im glad for him. He must be pretty determined.


I trusted my father with my car this weekend.

Yeah, not usually, but he took really good care of it!


it was impressive to see someone eat a 3 lbs burger the other day

Wow. Is he doing this for a show or a competition?

yea it was free if he could eat it and he got a t shirt

Terrible. So he is making himself unhealthy for a t shirt.


I got very annoyed in teh supermarket last week

Parents letting their very young kids push trolleys - it was a busy saturday and they were causing chaos

Oh I hate that too. Just let me buy what I need to buy and leave.


Two years ago, I discovered that my now ex-wife was cheating on me with someone she worked with. When I first discovered it, i was angry and hurt.

I bet you were, I did that to my husband when I was young. I thought it was the solution to relief from abuse.

I know it was a horrible experience at the time, now I think its the greatest thing to ever happen to me. Sleeping in different beds for 3 years isn't healthy. It took that to wake me up

I guess that was what you call a temporary situation. Sometimes moving on is required.


I was angry in the supermarket this week

People were letting their kids run wild when it was really busy.

Ugh I dislike parents who are so irresponsible with their kids in public


My daughter got a birthday card full of money this week and I took the cash before she could see it.

Well, that was terrible of you. Why would you do that?

I'm desperate for cash.  I feel really bad about it, but I like having my knee caps intact.  I guess she'll find another way to pay for college anyway.


Nut then someone can get into my accounts. I always end up resetting everything 6 times. Its pretty sad.

Do you not have anywhere to hide your passwords?


I recently started training my dog to improve his obedience. I have a way to go but I've been getting better.

You are right, I will keep at it and I'm having some fun at the same time.

And you're building trust with your dog as well! It's a win-win. :)


Last week my neighbor began making renovations on his home.

Yeah, that's the problem. On weekends he likes to start hammering and sawing at 5am.

I see how that can be annoying, have you asked him to stop doing that?


I was on a run today, and saw a loose dog but couldn't catch it before it ran off!

That's so interesting because I saw someone post the same thing on a neighborhood app just today.  Is that you? ha ha.

Maybe if you live in Central Texas...haha! But I was so worried about that small dog getting hit!

Ha ha, guess you weren't the one.  That would've been crazy!  I hope its okay!  I'm sure someone will try to grab it.


Old pokemon games make me nostalgic and emotional for some odd reason, they were a big part of my childhood

Oh wow Red and Blue were the best gameboy games

Never got a chance to play that one, was it better?


I didn't get the job position I applied for and I really wanted it.

Sorry to hear that. Did you try to find similar job position on the job market?

I did but this was my dream job. It was pretty upsetting.


So during my last employer, they decided to give us a raise and then lay us off! Isnt that crazy

Yeah right? Literally 2 months later they were like and btw... :o


when i took my drivers test at the end of it i wasw hopeful to pass it

I bet you were anxious to know how you did! Did you study up with friends or family leading up to the driver's test?

no i am 45. my license expired like 5 yrs ago and i didnt realize it...lol

Oh well that's a bit different of a situation, lol. I gotcha! I didn't know you had to retake the test if you accidentally let it expire. But I'm sure you did great!

That's awesome! I'm proud of you, buddy.


My house is perfect for my family. Just big enough for everyone. I love it.

That's awesome! I close on my first house Monday!


watching my son graduate was the best feeling ever

thank you.all his hard work and our time helping him payed off


Before I met my girlfriend and friends I was very lonely, that was not a fun time

That makes me sad to hear.  Do you have lot's of friends now?

Not a lot but I have a good group of a few friends, so that is nice

I think it is better to a few really good friends than a lot of acquaintances.


I really enjoyed caring for the patients in the emergency room at my previous job.

That is awesome! My sister is a CNA now but in school to become a nurse. Have you worked in any other settings as a nurse?


Yesterday I caught up talking with my cousin... it brought back so many good memories

Ah that must have been nostalgic. Did you grow up with your cousin?

Yes I did until  she moved to the west coast

I see. It's really good you got to catch up though!


I miss when my daughter was a baby... I feel like it's all a ablur now

I bet you had some good times when she was a baby!  How old is she now?

haha I bet she's a doll!  Cherish these moments!


I once ran out of gas in my car while traveling across state. I had no idea where I was at the time. It was pretty scary.

I've done that before.. it gets super dark on the highways and you don't realize it till you don't have any lights shining.

Yeah, it can happen easily. I blame myself for not keeping a better eye on the gas gauge.

I had a similar problem where my car overheated in the middle of nowhere.. so you never know.. anything can happen


Yes, but he will need to find a new job fast.


it sure must be nice to be able to get all the cool stuff, and do whatever you want and not have to work for any of it.

Yeah me either. I have some friends that get to experience it. Fortunately they are sharing so that is nice.

I don't have any sharing friends either lol. You're lucky


I went to a Cirqe d' Sole show recently and was quite amazed by the different acts! I couldn't smiling while watching! Their skills were unbelievable!

That sounds like a lot of fun. I have always wanted to go to one of those shows.

They are definitely worth it!  They take circus performances to a whole new level!

I like how colorful the whole production is. It really does look amazing.


My dog since childhood died a few days ago

I'm so sorry to hear that. I love my dog

Yea, it was heart breaking as he's always been that loyal best friend


You know when you see the perfect house to rent and someone beats you to it? That happened to me recently - the owners rented it out the night before I was to see it :(

Oh man that is really annoying!  Have you found another one you like yet?

Yes, but it's an apartment and this place was a lovely quiet 3 bed/2 bath place in a lovely neighborhood. Such a bummer!

Oh man I would be so upset.  I totally understand!  I hope you will be able to enjoy your new place


Ugh! My friend is definitely getting on my nerves today.

We made plans to catch up but never set a time. I tried to contact him to figure out what time and he never got back to me. I was looking forward to catching up.

Oh wow, so he basically ghosted you? I would be mad too


There was a girl at the park today doing flips and a cartwheel. It was so crazy!

Wow. That is impressive! I can't even do a cartwheel on a mat.

Yeah, she was like a kangaroo. She was bouncing around flipping and twirling, making it look easy.


Really not looking forward to taking my public speech class in college this semester. I feel like I'm going to get up there and vomit all over myself. Last time I had to talk in front of a group of people, I was so nervous, people were laughing because my knees were visibly shaking.

Oh my gosh, I feel the same to be honest. I hate, hate talking in front of a crowd.

The best I can do is incorporate humor into my speeches so that I feel like it's taking some weight off of me. But then there will be times where no one laughs at my jokes..

I'm sure you'll be fine, just try to practice as much as possible beforehand


Recently, I got passed over for a promotion at my job.

Aw man, that sucks. Promotions usually aren't given fairly in my experience. Was that the case for you too?

No, the guy that got it was qualified, it's just I really wanted the job. It would have really help my career.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that you get that promotion next time!


Our son in the Army is taking a leave to visit us next month.

Oh, you must be so excited! I have a son in the Army as well and I love when he gets to visit!

Wow! So you can totally understand how I feel. You must be proud of your son as I am of mine.

Yes, I am. It's so nice to see our sons sacrifice for our country. But I think they do it more because they think they are protecting us.


My son got his first ear infection last week.

Yes, thank goodness.  The antibiotics fixed him right up.

OK, good. What do you think caused the infection in the first place?

The doctor mentioned his congestion might have contributed, but I got the impression that they just happen sometimes with no real cause.


Some days every little thing gets me irritated


We are going on a cruise next year on Spring Break with my parents and my sisters family.

I love cruises. Where are you guys headed to on the cruise?

We are going to Cozumel. We have never been on a cruise before. We can't wait to go.

Nice! I think I went to Cozumel, Mexico with my family in like 2013? It was on the Carnival Imagination cruise, it was awesome!


they're just the best and always very helpful

That's great to hear. I wish I had a helpful family.


I totally am! I'm kinda tired of school lol.

I know what you mean!  I've been homeschooling my girls forever it seems and my oldest graduates this spring.  I'm ready to be done with school too - LOL!


My boyfriend is starting to get on my nerves.

Oh, well if he is flirting, I would dump him


I have been driving my little truck around for a while now, but I'm happy with it.

That's good. As long as at gets you where you need to go. That's what matters.

That's what I'm saying.  So many people need to have bigger and better and new.  Not me.


I saw a homeless guy the other day on my way home, and it made me reflect on my own life.

What about this homeless person had you reevaluating things?

Lately, I've been thinking how miserable I am at my job. As terrible as it sounds, when I saw him, I thought life could be much worse.

What's been bothering you at work? Are you not being fulfilled enough?


One time as a surprise for my birthday, my college friends "kidnapped me"

Oh my goodness, that must have been terrifying until you figured out what was going on.

Nah - I knew that they were just having fun with me!  I was blindfolded and put in the trunk of a big car (I am tiny).

Well at least you had a good time.  Did they do something nice for you after?


I spent this entire summer thinking I was going to lose weight, that I was going to be good on my diet and workout. I did neither. I stayed inside, played video games, ate horribly, and got grumpy ate everybody who reminded me of my promise. Now winter is coming and it's going to be even harder to motivate myself.

Oh no, I'm sorry that sounds awful disappointing. If it's any consolation I think it's easier to diet than to work out. THe old phrase "can't outrun the fork."

I had never heard that phrase before, but I like it. Yeah, I'm throwing myself a big pity party right now. It's all my own fault though, no one else to blame. My wife tries to cook healthy meals, and encourages me. I just have to not let stress get me to overeat. We'll see how the winter goes.

I'm sorry. What has really helped my friend has been not keeping any snacks in the house and cutting out most bread. HE really struggles with bread and sugar though.


im feeling blue because my days and nights are mixed up

That really sucks. Have you tried taking some melatonin?

i have tried taking benadryl and some other sleep aid.  i should try melatonin.

Yeah, it works wonders for me when I can't sleep.


I'm afraid I won't be able to afford my car payment this month.

Oh no! Can you do some gig economy work online to try to make enough?

That's what I'm trying to do, I might have to take out a payday loan which I don't want to do!

Woah that's awful, those things are such a rip off!


I packed my bag in advance, and really thoroughly, when I went to the hospital to have my baby.

It sounds you you didnt leave anything out. It feels good to bell prepared.

I was so happy that for once, I didn't forget or miss anything

That is great especially in a time like going to the hospital.


I have a big tennis match tomorrow against my rival.

I've been playing for years so I'm pretty good. Definitely good enough to beat her!

Well if you were playing me you would definitely win


My dad gave my son a very special model car and within the week, it was broken.

He didn't understand, so he wasn't in trouble, but I have to admit I was a little sad about it.

I'd say so. That's so disheartening. I'm sure it was accidental.


I have an important exam tomorrow and feel that something bad will happen.

What could go wrong when you're taking an exam?

Its just that I feel anxious and think I am going to fail!

I understand that but I think you will be fine! We all get that fear when it comes to an important test, it means we're human and still feel things!


I think I can understand that.  It was a bit simpler than all this adulting we have to do.

Yes. Exactly. I kinda wish I took school more seriously.

You and me both!  My kids are almost raised and I'll probably go back to work soon, but would actually love a different degree now.  It's never too late to go back you know.


I started doing more research on salaries for the degree I'll have in 6 months.

It seems to be about 60,000 per year just out of college. I am eager to see if the statistics are correct.

That's a pretty good sum of money. I hope you start there as well!


A car hit me about 10 years. I awoke up in the morning naked and two womens wasking me for chirurgical operation. I felt so bad to be naked in front of people I don't know.

You weren't thinking about the surgery at all?

No because my brain was not working properly. I didn't know what was the surgery about. I awoke finding people washing my private part. I felt bad.


I beat all of the crazy crowds for back to school shopping.

I went shopping weeks ago. They need the same stuff every year.


The way political discourse is unfolding in our country makes me feel embarrassed. No professionalism or courtesy, and only insults toward each other

I know! It really is ridiculous and way out of hand.

The good old ways of respecting each other's opinion is locked behind the door and I am not sure if we can overcome it

It does seem to be getting worse and it doesn't appear like it will get better.


I cooked for 20 people. All thank to Youtube.


Kicked my feet up and read a book at the park today.

That sounds very relaxing. What kind of book was it?

It was one of those magazines with the ladies in the bunny costumes. It was so relaxing.

Oh I get that magazine too. I like it for the stories.


After dating my girlfriend for 3 years she still won't accept my marriage proposal, I am so angry with her

Ouch that's rough. Maybe she just isn't ready.

I think she is secretly cheating on me :(

Do you have any proof? If so you should bring it up to her.


I got a nice shock the other day when my friends took me out to celebrate my birthday. I wasn't expecting for them to remember.

To my favorite Greek restaurant. They also gave me some nice gifts. I have the best friends!

you are very lucky,  is greek your favorite food?


i really hate when people make me wait for no reason

my girlfriend allways makes me wait, it makes me really anxious ahhahah

I understand that! When I am ready to go- I just want to hurry up and go. I hate sitting around waiting too. Maybe you should make her wait and see if she likes it. Lesson


Oh that would be awesome! How much is the lottery for?


My husband is an over the road truck driver and I dont get to see him a lot.

I'm sorry to hear that.  It must be difficult to be away from the one you love.

Yes. We have been blessed to be able to comfort each other through the tough times.

I'm glad to hear that.  I wish you continued love and success with your marriage.  It's a rare gift to have these days.


Not well. I didn't really feel prepared for it.

I'm sorry, I am sure you will be ready next time.


That's so nice! Did they have a good day?

Well I overslept and they were late but other thatn that it was good

That's good. It's nice when everything turns out great in the end.


I am going to see a concert at the end of the month.

They are a coverband of a band from the 80s.

That would be so nice, I have not went to a concert in ages


So my neighbor who is elderly has an above ground swimming pool. It's tilting because it wasn't put together properly. It was getting very unsafe

Oh no! That's awful. That could be dangerous too!

Yes indeed. I stepped in to help not really knowing what  I was doing. I screwed up at first a bunch but after all day working on it, I got it fixed!

I bet your neighbor was very appreciative of all of your help. That would have been a daunting task for the elderly neighbor.

Yeah I just didn't want her or her grandkids to hurt themselves. The pool is very important to them.

O,h grandparents are the best at spoiling grandchildren! I could understand that being important to her.


My darling companion of 5 years died yesterday, I feel so lonely

Aw no, I have a cat and I really don't like thinking about him dying. Sorry to hear that.


I have the best friends, they put together a party for my graduation and I had no idea it was even planned.

That's really awesome. Your friends sound really great!

Make sure you do something good for them in return!


I thought my best friend was going to be able to visit me this summer. But it turns out he can't take the time off from work right now. I'm a bit bummed, as I haven't seen him in a long time.

Would you be able to go meet him instead?

No, unfortunately I can't make the drive right now. Maybe next year.

That sucks. I would be disappointed also. Hopefully yall can make some time soon to get together.


I have big trip coming up to California. I have never been before so I am getting a little antsy.

sounds like it going to be an interesting trip

I cant wait to see the beaches and the hills. Im having a hard time trying to concentrate on work.

i can imaging the anticipation, but before you know it, you'll be on the beach


I am sooo mad.  I came home and someone burnt a pizza in my oven and left it there.

I know and it was one of those expensive frozen pizzas too... Made my blood boil.


My friend has the best wife. She is funny beautiful and so caring.

Awww, that's sweet! He was lucky to find such a great partner!

Yeah I wish she was mine though. I think I love her.

Oh no! You can't do that to your friend! You'll find the right single person in time!


My brother was in a drunken mood last night. He said nasty things and broke my furniture

That's not acceptable even if he is drunk.

I agree, I am so angry with him. He has been doing for years now.

I hope you get to set him straight somehow.


I had a chance to cheat on my wife once,

Oh no! That's horrible. Please tell me you didn't.

I did not. I left there quickly. It was not something I would ever want to do.

Awww, that is awesome! I am so proud of you!


Last year I was about to run my first 50 mile race.  I had broken my toes a few weeks before and wasn't sure I was going to make it.

Ouch, that's unfortunate. Hopefully it turned out okay though?

It did, thankfully I had listened to my doctor's recommendations and it healed up just enough.  It was still a pretty nerve wracking start though.

I can imagine, talk about bad timing injuring your toes!


I've been thinking about my highg school years a lot recently

Yes. My daughter will be in high school soon so I think that's why


One birthday I could not believe my eyes!

One year for my birthday I had gone to my moms for a visit by myself without my fiance. When I got home and walked the door I was greeted by a golden retriever puppy!

That's a present that you love and it can love you back. That's the best present.


I was cleaning up and found some old photographs of myself as a child today.

Oh cool. I love looking through my old photos. makes me feel warm and fuzzy.

It made me feel nostalgic for my childhood.

Me too. I love to ponder about the good ole days. Did you share the photos with your friends or parents?


Been having a good day, relaxing on my couch watching Netflix. I got a nice cup of hot chocolate and my cat curled up in my lap.

You're making me want to do the same thing. That sounds great!

Yeah, it's been a great day. Thinking about moving to the bed and going to sleep next.

Nothing like relaxing and getting your body ready for a night of good sleep!


I moved across country while looking to my future life there.

That's very brave. Did you run into any obstacles?

Not really any big ones, other than some stress. It's been great so far and curious how life will be.

I'm glad things have worked out for you.


I've been having some serious headaches lately. I don't know why.

well it might help you get rid of them a little quicker or find the underlying issue


I found my high school yearbook this morning. I spent the whole day going through it.

Very good! I still wish I could go back to that age knowing what I know now though lol


When I was eight my parents got me a dog for Christmas.

A dog is an awesome gift for a little kid.  I bet you were super excited.

To this day I remember it as the best Christmas of my life.

I bet!  Maybe I should get my kids a dog for Christmas, I know it would be a great choice for them.


A friend of mine won $1000 on a scratch off. The thing is I bought one to and won nothing. He is so lucky.

Aw man!  That stinks!  I never really win things.  Some people have all the luck.

I cant believe it either. He bought a new playstation with which I really want my self.

I would be so jealous too!  Sorry you didn't win.  Keep trying!


Aw man. Who has been working there longer, you or the co-worker?

Did you receive any sort of feedback as to why you might have been passed over?

It was kinda bullshit. Everyone things the guy is kinda dumb but, goign to lunch with your hiring manager 3 times a week has its perks.

Boooo! Yeah. Might be worth chatting with HR to see if there are any pointers you can get so maybe next time will go in your favor.


I got invited to speak at a conference, but I'm not sure I want to do it.

About online marketing.  I have never spoken in front of a big crowd before and I am very nervous about it.

It's hard to condense a pep talk into nice little one liners. But I think if you just go for it, breathe deeply a bunch, and pretend it's just you in that room, I think you'll do great!


I went on vacation to Florida and had a great time. I just felt really happy and relaxed the entire time.

I'm glad you had a nice trip. Was it your first.

It was, actually! I'm from Louisiana and was so surprised at the difference in humidity! The heat is more bearable in Florida.

I would have thought it would be the other way around.


I missed my friend's phone call. Her car broke down.

Yea. She walked to the nearest gas station.

Look at the bright side. She got some exercise. We all need more exercise.


I didn't get the promotion at work that I applied for.

That's unfortunate. You will get the next one, I am sure.

I sure hope so, I worked really hard for this one.

I bet your employer still knows how much you have put in


I was in a back room in our house and everyone else was asleep. I heard a weird crinkling noise and was worried that someone had come in the house.

Oh my goodness, did you go to check what the noise was?

I did, it turned out to be my cat playing with a play mat the kids left out.

I'm glad it wasn't anything serious! It's scary how quick our mind goes to the worst possible scenarios.


It can be hard to wake up sometimes when you live alone.

I can imagine that. I've never lived alone before.

Wow really? I have before and now I am again. It's hard! You wake up and think..what is going on, where am I..Oh yeah!


Watching someone stream an old video game on Twitch, one that I used to play. It's one that's like almost 20 years old, that I used to play when I was 11. Makes me wish I didn't have so many bills and responsibilities!

Adulting is hard that's for sure. Start playing it and streaming and make some money.

Haha, I doubt anyone would watch me. I'm not terrible in terms of personality, but I'm just another person. Twitch is all about luck. But I appreciate your thought! Obviously there were some crappy things about being a kid, too.I wish we could just hit a switch and be able to go back and forth every now and then.

I just read that youth was wasted on the young. lol Kind of apropos.

I've always loved that saying. It's always so easy for one side, the young, to hate the other, the old. Oh well. Perspective is always key.

It's funny how you learn things as you get older even if you aren't doing major things. Little things you can learn a lot from


it makes me angry when i let someone out in traffic without being acknowleded

generally i do, gotta be careful with all the crazies out there though

That is true. It is always better to be safe than sorry.


During a storm, a water main broke and flooded my entire house just a few weeks after my son was born. It destroyed a lot of our belongings and the house was ruined.

I hope you're recovering well enough! That is absolutely devastating news to read.

We have recovered finally. We ended up having to live in a hotel for a few weeks until we found a new place to live. Our family was very helpful.

That's great news! Did you have insurance?


My best friend is finally able to come back to school after an academic suspension.

That's good!  Was there a reason for the suspension?

She had failed too many classes.  We're in the same classes this semester, so that should help keep her on track.

It'll be good for her to have your support, so hopefully she'll do better this semester.


I have just started taking care of my grandmother.

That's very admirable of you. It feels like no one takes care of family anymore.

She has dementia and I am the last of her family.  I hate seeing her languish in the nursing home she is in.  Hopefully I can get her doing better.

I am sure with your care, she will be much better off. I wish you and your family well.


I will be starting Law School in January.

That's seriously impressive. Sounds like a lot of work, though. Hope it all works out. Are you nervous?

I am.  It is a goal I have had but have never made the jump until now.

Well, you sound confident. And applying and getting in is one of the toughest steps, so I'm sure you'll do fine.


Today at the grocery store my car was hit! He was on his phone!

I'm so sorry!  That's awful!  Did you get his insurance information?

Oh absolutely. Luckily I had a witness help testify that he was indeed on his phone.


A couple of weeks ago I woke up to the LOUDEST banging on my apartment door. It was like 3AM in the morning.

Wow that sounds scary and horrible. What was it?

Well, I thought about opening it but I didn't. I don't know exactly what happened, but the police came and I heard them telling the man to go home, so maybe he was on something.

Oh I see. I'm glad the police came and took care of it. Sounds like a scary experience.


I've been going through old photos and trying to figure out how to store them, but then I just spend half the time crying.

Yes, tons of photos of my girls when they were babies.  I cannot believe they are 16 and 18 now.


I'm confident I'm going to hit my new bench press max tomorrow at the gym!

Congrats! I'm sure you will, I love going to the gym. I mainly do cardio.

Yeah working out is great! I love cardio as well, makes you feel alive!

Defenitly! I use to run track in high school and was active duty Army so running has always been a big part of my life.


I have a wonderful family and my health that has been horrible, is finally turning around with my hard work. I am happy with life.

I am so glad to hear everything is going well for you!. It is good to hear your health is improving.

Thank you. I am glad too since its been 13 years of suffering.  I can't really be upset about anything in life so just enjoying it.

That is a long time to suffer. It seems like it is a new day for you.


I was so upset when I had to put my dog down last month

Oh no. That's so sad. Was she sick for long?

Not really. She was old and we woke up one day and she could not use her back legs. It was very sad.

I'm sorry. At least she had a good long life.


I am confident about my new job, and I can not wait to get started!


I assume you were trying to be a good friend and protect them?


My friend found out I shared a secret he told me.  I really feel embarrassed!

That sucks.  I hope it wasn't a super important secret at least.

It sort of was.  I really put my foot in my mouth!

Well, hopefully your friendship won't suffer for it :)


My daughter had a school project that I helped her assemble, after we was done with it she informed she wanted it on wheels. Sometimes kids can be such a pain.

Yeah, I have a doughter as well and understand.  I guess kids will be kids!

Lol. Yes they will be. Just would have been nice to know she wanted it on wheels at the beginning of the project

The things they do make no sense.  Kid logic!


Yesterday, I saw a spider run across my desk and I scream so loud.

Hahaha, that is hilarious! We have some mega spiders where I live. Imagine pulling some toilet paper and a huge spider the size of your hand comes jumping out. It happened to me!!

Luckily no one in my house is as scared as I am

Yeah, they can help get the spider outside.


I had to leave my dog at the vet overnight, so they can run some tests. She hasn't been eating much lately, and she's just been really lackadaisical and lazy. I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight, knowing she's there in a weird environment, all alone

Aw, I'm sorry to hear that, is she getting up there in age?

She's almost 10, yeah. I know sometimes you just have to let go. But she was fine a few days ago! I'm still holding on to the idea that it's nothing. We'll see!

Hopefully they will diagnose her correctly and she becomes her normal self. Fingers crossed!
