I'm feeling a little sad about my son turning two in a few months.

Yeah they always seem to grow up so fast.

Yeah but just think. The best is yet to come!


I applied for a home loan and I'm waiting to hear back on it. The waiting is driving me up a wall.

I have. It's taking them extra long for some reason. All the scrutiny is making me run circles.

I just think you should just be optimistic and patient


I don't know. I don't have any money yet either. I jus know I am determined to get one before the year is over

Nice, it all starts with determination first. I believe in you man!


I won first place in a chili cooking competition at work today.

That's amazing, how many people entered?

Huge win, do you plan on entering again next year?

I'll probably give it a try. They do little events like this a few times a year.

Maybe if there's a hot dog one I can enter it too.


Can't wait til my wife gets home, I'm surprising her with flowers and dinner.

She is most certainly going to enjoy that!

Yeah, sometimes I feel the need to surprise her after a long week of work.


I'm moving to New York city soon due to a new job and I can't wait! I plan on going sight seeing for the first few days of arriving.

Holy cow that's amazing!!  Do you think you'll like this new job?

I do! I'm a computer programmer and have been for a while, so I know what to expect. It's just a new company that I'll be working for that pays far better.

That's really great!  I'm happy for you!  Knockem dead!


I mean, let's be honest. I'm the Major League Eating world champion. When I saw that my next closest competition had only ever maxed 40 hot dogs, I knew I had that thing in the bag.

Dang, that's a lot of dogs. Cleaned out the pound, you did. But that doesn't hold a candle to the 100 I ate yesterday.

Ah, I see you are a man of culture as well. I would relish the opportunity to eat alongside you one day at the troughs of battle. Be warned, however: only those with the strongest of stomachs have ever dared to challenge me!

How dare you question my intestinal fortitude?!? I would watch out, friend. I may just slip some cyanide in your relish if I ever have the chance to challenge you!


I cant wait to start my new job tomorrow. Ill have better hours and higher pay.

Its a financial analyst job. The company is really good and its something new for me.


I was watching old videos of my nieces and nephew when they were little. It really took me back.".

A bit of nostalgia, huh?  It is always wonderful to look back on old family memories.

That is so true. It can really take you right back to the moment.

The times we share with family should always be cherished.


I planted vegetables in my garden. I can't wait until they sprout!

Nothing like fresh veggies! What did you plant?

I planted tomatoes, peppers, and onions. I'm hoping to make salsa.

Mmmm...you are making my mouth water. Juicy fresh tomatoes are the best!


I was dumped a few days ago after 4 years so I'm glad I have a close group of friends who helped me get through it

That is so sad.  It sucks to end any relationship.

Indeed it does. Even more so when they don't give you a good reason other than 'I need more excitement in my life'

That seems like a pretty crazy reason to throw away four years.  I am sorry that happened to you.


The day finally came for me to move and to my surprise my family came over to help.

Wow, that's really great that they pitched in to help. You must be happy about that!


I have been waiting a few weeks for a bird cage to come, and it was supposed to come today but it hasnt. :( Bummed.

Have you asked the merchant why it is late?

Yeah to no response of course. I am upset about it.

I would be too! They should be more diligent with their shipping estimates!


Oh, good luck! Are you nervous for the job interview?

I really thought I would be, but surprisingly I am not! Maybe because I've been preparing for it all week. I feel pretty good about it.

It's so great to be prepared! I'm sure the interviewers will be impressed!


My best friend took me in when I escaped an abusive situation.

Thats great! So many do not have a safe place to go when they leave

I agree. It makes it hard for a lot to leave.

I have been there. I didn't have anywhere to go. I am glad you got out!


I'm looking forward to all the soccer on TV today

There are lots of games on. The best is Barcelona v Sevilla in Tangiers for the Supercopa


I've been in a fender bender not a total wreck.

I was in one about 2 years ago. No one was hurt, but it totaled both of our cars.

Man, how was your insurance policy for that?


I'm hosting a dinner party for some friends tomorrow night.

That's very nice of you. I hope you guys have a great time!

Thank you very much. I believe that I have gotten everything ready for it. Fingers crossed.

I'm sure it will go well! What are you cooking?


My mother in law got to eat Qdoba today, one of my favorite places I haven't had in awhile

Qdoba is the BOMB! Although, I think I prefer Chipotle slightly more.

No way. queso all the way! They don't have one near by but she was traveling and the airport up north did.

Yeah, but Chipotle has queso now! But, yeah, it isn't as good as Qdoba queso.


My co-worker returned 20 bucks to me the other day after I lost it.

He found it a couple of feet from my cubicle. I am so glad since I need it to buy doritos and mountain dew.

Is that how much doritos and a mountain dew costs there. geez


I am excited for my daughter starting school week after next.

Yay! is it her first year or just excited to get some free time?

I nervous for her because its the start of her freshman year and she has all Honors classes.

Oh wow, she's must be smart! But yeah, that must be stressful.


Why was it not a good day? What happened?

The doctor recommended hospice for my grandad today

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that.  My father in law had to have hospice and although it's not what you want to hear, the people that work with hospice are really a lifeline for the family.


Going to see my long distance girlfriend this weekend, and we're going to have a movie marathon. I only get to see her every so often because of the distance. I'm excited

oh welcome to the long distance club! i am exactly in the same situation as you, we are going on a cable car, we are going to meet in 2 weeks and i also can't wait, i feel you, LET'S HAVE  A BLAST

Haha, yeah it's rough sometimes. We live like a thousand miles almost exactly apart. So, we only get to see each other a few times a year. But when we do, it's great. really adds to the excitement of everything

Yup i totally get you, it's same here and now it feels time is going super slow, these next 2 weeks are going to be hell before i go to see her, make sure you enjoy yourself!


Yes, it doesn't happen often I feel these days. Had some sushi.


I saved the tickets from my first concert

its funny what one saves , i saved a mickey mouse that was given to me while i was in the hospital things like 20 years old lol

The first thing I made in pottery class was supposed to be a mini cactus pot. I use it as an ashtray now lol

good times , you got to hold on to the memories


We went to see The Meg yesterday - horrible name for this movie by the way.

Surprisingly it was pretty good - but now I'm terrified of the ocean again.  I mean, I know it's not real, but it makes me think of all the sharks that ARE real and out there.


A couple weeks ago I help a door open for an elderly couple. I really think it's important for youth to care for the elderly!

That was really nice of you! I'm sure they appreciated the gesture.

I think so! It's like caring for your grandparents.

Its important to care for the older generation who once cared for us.


I'm looking forward to teh Spanish Supercopa tonight


I ate at a restaurant this morning and their bathroom was beyond gross. It was weird because the eating area was squeaky clean but their bathroom was the opposite.

That's disgusting.  Makes me wonder what their kitchen looks like.

I know right? I should have let them know to be honest.


I am sending my daughter to school with extra suppies this year

I noticed last year a lot of kids didnt have everything. I hate to see that.

That's so nice of you to help them out! I'm sure they're really thankful.


i was happy when my wife brought home our new tortoise


i was walking in to work and i slipped on some black ice

I bet.  Did your work cover your medical bills?


I remember this time two years ago when I was expecting my youngest child we didn't know whether she would be a boy or a girl. I was so excited when they told me the results were a girl.

What a happy time I bet you were very prouod and excited!! :-

Mostly surprised because it caught us off guard, but nonetheless it was an awesome time and we are so happy.

Yay that is awesome! Sometimes not knowing the gender of the baby is a very cool surprise they say.


The door bell rang last month. I wasn't expecting anyone, but it was my daughter and her family from way up north.

Sounds like a nice surprise! my god how beautiful.

I couldn't believe it. It had been almost a year since I saw them and she never even gave me a hint they were coming.

Thats seriously one of the best presents ever. Im happy for you!


There is a coworker sitting next to me that he is making noise with his pen the whole day long. It is disturbing me from my work.

That's got to be annoying! Have you tried telling him to stop?

I already told him but he said he can't concentrate without having something in his hands.

Maybe he should take up knitting--or something else that would be a bit more quiet.


I'm going on vacation tomorrow and have everything packed. I've never felt this prepared in my life!

I'm going to the North Pole! Can't wait to wrestle some polar bears and drink coca cola!

I don't think the polar bears are gonna let you near their coke, man.


My wife, on the other hand, is very supportive and is the most caring person I have ever met.

That is good, how long have you been married?


My childhood cat died the year after I left home for college.

Losing a pet is a hard thing.  Was the cat old or sick?

Did you do anything special to honor it?


Just got offered a car as a gift. I really needed it.

What an amazing gift to be given!  That truly sounds like a blessing for you.

It is! The person is very kind to have reached out like that.


ok now deal with it by confessing to her

I didn't tell her, it was to my interviewer.

oh ok. Just be hopeful that he won't find out


I have a job interview coming up later this week.  I feel confident about it but would love for it to be over

You got this just be yourself and professional obviously and don't over think it.

Thats my plan going into it.  It would be awesome if I got the job but if not I am happy where I am at too

You will get it happy thoughts only and if not something better is in store.


My daughter graduated high school as a straight A student last year

Oh I am. It's nice to know that I raised a child with a good head on her shoulders.


I haven't been the greatest person, but my family always sticks by me.

That must be nice, having a good family.


I trusted my coworker to give my a high standard of work but he did not.

thats a terrible situation you are in has it been resolved?


My family knows almost all of my secrets

how did it make you feel to disclose that information?

good afterwards. Everyone has secrets right?

Yes, everyone does. that was really brave of you!


Yeah. He didn't survive. I really miss him


A truck almost ran me off the road the other day, thank god the median was there. I never understood the expression life flashing before my eyes, but after that, I did.

Call me a baby because I started crying when I thought about how I could have been seriously hurt.


That is so nerve racking. I'm sure you will do great.

I'm not too sure. Frankly, I am quite nervous about it since I haven't studied.

Do you usually do good in math? It is my favorite subject and always came so easy for me.


oh im sorry to hear that, what caused this?

I found out my girlfriend was cheating on me with one of my friends.  I cant bear to look at either of them right now

no one deserves this, this is the worst thing that can ever happen, im sorry to hear that


Everyone in my family has a nicer car than I do

wow, thats crazy, did they all pay for them all themselfes.

How should I know? I just know my car is crap


My parents just gave me the best birthday present ever.

They paid off my car.  I have been trying to save for a house, but I wasn't going to buy one until my car was paid for.  It was going to be 4 years, but now I don't have to wait!

Omg! That really is the best birthday present ever!


He learned two new tricks today. I was able to teach him to give me a highfive and roll over! he is the cutest pup! :)


i'm looking forward to next week, i'm going on a holiday with my fiance!

that does sound like fun! where do you guys plan on going?

well, we are going to turkey! i've heard some good things about that country i'm very excited

that sounds like a good time. not the usual country you see people vacation to


My first pregnancy did not go as planned at all - in fact, it will probably go down as the most scary time in my life.

Oh no! What happened? I can't imagine having to go through something that scary.

Things were fine until 36 weeks.  Then all you know what happened.  I developed HELLP syndrome, my organs started shutting down, blood pressure was super high.  Had an emergency c-section and in the hospital for over a week after - came close to losing both of us.

Holy moly! I am so glad you are okay. I'm sure that gave you quite a fright.


I usually spend Saturdays with my parents since my Fiance works most Saturdays. Football season is coming up and my parents always get season tickets to the football games on Saturdays. It is really going to stink not having anything to do once that starts up again.

Aww, I'm sorry to hear that. Maybe you can find a new hobby for the weekends.

Its hard with my 2 year old. Its almost impossible to do anything.

I definitely understand. It really sucks that you're so limited.


I took my family out to the county fair last night.

Sounds like a fun time! What did you guys do?

We listened to some music, rode a few rides and saw the exhibits.

glad you guys got to spend some fun fam time together


I am very happy when I spend time with my girlfriend.

We truly are. After a few bad ones I think I am truly in love.

That's wonderful. How long have you been together?


I hurt my foot at work the other day. Kinda ruined my plans.

I tripped over something. It really sucks because I was planning on going to the park with my daughter.

That really sucks, I hope you feel better and can take her another day!


I paid off my car, it's a momentous occasion!

I look forward to the day where I can say the same! That must feel liberating!

Wow, you must be very financially responsible! I'm sure that'll help you do well in life. I'm practicing myself.


I drank all of my best friend's beer and didn't tell him.

Were you able to replace it before he found out?

He hasn't figured it out yet. I could still do that I suppose, before he realizes it.

I think that would be the best option.  Nothing worse to be thirsty and have your taste buds set on something and it's not there.


I like to watch all the music and guitar covers on YouTube.  There's a lot of talented folks out there nowadays.

Oh definitely, Youtube is a great platform for these talented people

Yeah, it never ceases to amaze me the kinds of things you can see on YouTube.  Endless content to discover.

Yeah, my favorite is watching short comedy videos of my favorite drag queens


Oh yea, how could I forget that. How many kids do you have?


Sometimes I forget to feed my pets. I feel so bad about that it afterwards


felt really nervous when I took my driving test


I am feeling pretty good after my interview for a promotion at work last week. My boss told me I nailed the interview.

That is a fantastic feeling. I hope you get it.

Well I have almost twice the experience as the other two candidates, so I have a really good feeling about it.

Keep riding that confidence. It will get you places. It sounds like you deserve it.


i'm really sad because she used to help me with everything


I think I got everything I need for my job interview tomorrow. I got my fancy clothes and answers prepared for common questions they usually throw at u.


Sometimes my boyfriend cooks, and the food tastes pretty gross

Hahahahaha.  I'm sorry for laughing, but that struck me as funny.  Is he trying his best, or is he trying to get the point across that he shouldn't be cooking?

No, he's seriously trying. I eat it because I love him but I should really send him to a cooking class, haha

That might be a good Christmas present.  You could do it as a couple.  I did one of those with my wife last year and it was a blast.


That promotion I was telling you about at work, well I did not get it. The worst part is that my friend did. Its hard for me to be happy for him.

Oh man. I am sorry. Your time will come. That is a very hard situation! One of those hard ones in life.

I just cant stop thinking why him and not me. I received very positive feedback from my bosses. I just dont understand.

Maybe you should ask your boss? Maybe he is more charasmatic. That happens sometimes. I am sorry. I've been there!


My boss said that I was rude to a customer earlier this year and that is why I am not getting a raise.

Sorry to hear that. Have you tried to explain your side of things to your boss?

I tried but he is a real turd.  He doesn't listen to anything his employees say.  The problem is that it is out of his hands because the customer complained to corporate.  It was a total lie, but they don't care.

Hopefully this type of situation doesn't happen again. That really is disappointing how the system doesn't protect the employees about that type of situation.


I used the internet to help me write a paper once because I didn't read the literature. It was flagged for plagiarism.

Oh my...You have to be careful when you use the internet for school assignments.

Very true! I felt so bad. That was the first and last time that ever happened.

I know someone else that happened to. I wouldn't take anymore chances either.


He was 5. He got hit by a car. I've been so distraught since then.

That's terrible. I'm so sorry. You'll never forget him.


I went to a new pizza place downtown. They have one of those wood fire ovens.

That sounds delicious! What type of pizza did you order?

I didn't order anything a mouse ran out of the kitchen and scared me to death.

Lol! Maybe the rat is the chef? The restaurant's secret is a rat in the hat!


i am bothered by my neighbors loud power tools next door

Do they run them all day long - or at night?

during the morning and day on the weekends!

Is there any kind of noise ordinance in your area?  I know in ours unless they are still running them at 11pm, there is nothing the police will/can do about it unfortunately - but I can imagine how annoying it is.


I spent the entire other weekend cleaning my apartment. It sucked at the time but it was so nice when I was done to just chill out and watch TV.

Yes, I feel you. Cleaning sucks, but after all that hard work, the results are amazing!

Right? It's so rewarding when you're finished and everything smells good. I love that feeling.


I ate 50 pounds of ramen the other day. Never felt so bad for all the college kids that gazed on in envy and horror.

Nope! Well, I suppose they can, but not as much as I. I am the Ramen King and impose a stiff ramen tax for every ramen meal consumed by all poor college students.


cheating on someone, to me, is so disgraceful

i just dont see why people dont just end their relationship if they are unhappy

I know. It is so hurtful to so many involved.


I made a stupid mistake at work. Because of that mistake, I was fired. I am angry at myself.

I know it's a blow, but you're only human. Everybody makes mistakes sometimes.

My boss didn't understand that. The mistake that made cost him a lot of money.

I'm sorry. People can be greedy and unempathetic.


I saw a guy picking his nose in his car a stop light the other day.

Did you roll down your window and yell at him?

I would have but he ate it before I could get my window down and I couldn't yell over the gagging.


I was only asleep for an hour last night and I jumped out of bed! There was this smacking noise on my window it freaked me out!

You'll never guess haha! It was just a twig. The age old branch slapping on the window in the wind.


My neice left such a mess over here today

5 and my daughter is 4. They destroyed the playroom


I went to target today to browse around.

Oh man, that always leads to trouble for me lol

Well I decided to get a pizza and it was horrible. What happened to pizza hut?

They probably changed their crust or something, they always do that mess.


So, just the other day I decided to believe a woman I know about her renting her home to my family. I really thought it would happen, but she will not call me back and it has been days.

Oh, wow. I hate it when people do things like that. They should just be honest and upfront to begin with instead of causing drama.

That is one of my biggest pet peeves. Just tell me what your intentions actually are instead of stringing me along for nothing. It would have been more than perfect for my family. I really believed her.

I'm sorry it fell through, but hopefully you will find something even better, and bonus, you won't have to deal with her.


This is the best week of work for me. I will be getting a raise!

Yep, mama always said: work hard for that chocolate!

Go for the dark chocolate its more expensive but its worth it!


I attended a bachelor party this summer. Things got a little out of hand.

One of my friends hired some entertainment that my girlfriend would not approve of.

A stripper, I see. Well what she does not know will not hurt her.


I really thought that me and this girl were right for each other but things didn';t work out.

that really sucks, i dont know the feeling tho.

Yeah it does suck, she thought things might work out if we moved slower but nah.


I let out a moist, hot, smelly, loud fart in front of all my co-workers today. I don't think I can ever show my face again.

That's awful. I hope you can find a new job.

Me too, considering I am bound to get fired, since two of my co-workers were rushed to the ER. I thought I was going to die myself.

That a fart can hospitalize anyone is pretty impressive.  Did your story make the local news?


You ever had strawberry shortcake ice cream?

You wouldn't believe. I'm eating one right now.

I don't believe you. I used to eat them all the time as a kid

Me too. They wer 50 cent on the ice cream truck.

The ice cream truck didn come here. My grandmother used to buy boxes of them for us.

That's cool. I buy the box of six and don't share with anyone


Someone keeps calling my phone. I'll block them, but they just call from a new number.

That is annoying. Do they say anything when you answer?

Oh I don't answer numbers I don't recognize.


I am really looking forward to the new season of the Lakers

I know right? everyone is, with Lebron James coming in

Hell yeah! i am sure we are going to perform really well this season

So true. Lakers going to do well this time around.


That's great.  Have they always been as supportive as they are now


Ok I was in Walmart buying a video game when this dud eshows up and immediately questions my selection. Like it's some kind of internet forum!

That is so annoying.Who he thinks he is???

I dunno, but I just said "That's great, bro" and left.  Then he follows me to the checkout counter to continue giving me crap about it.


My sister's been going through a bit of a hard time lately, so today I baked her a big ol pumpkin pie.

I love me some pumpkin pie, whats she going through?

She was laid off recently and her guinea pig died, which she had for a pretty long time. And yeah, I made a pumpkin pie because that's one of my favorites.

I'm sorry to hear that, I love animals. I hope she cheers up.


I am so mad at myself, I made my team lose the softball game.


You remember the first time you moved out of your parents?

But don't you just feel that freedom you have. You can do whatever you want with your place.

Yeah, it was nice. It was a dump, but it was my dump.


Well, I was complaining about wanting cake, and I guess everyone made me one!

That is very sweet of them, do not take them for granted!


I was on the highway during a strong thunderstorm, no visibility. I had a bad feeling someone bad was going to happen and no more than 10 minutes later two cars in front of me crash and one gets flipped over.

That's so scary!  You must have strong intuition

Yeah I honestly don't but the whole mood on that highway just felt right for that to happen. A lot of people weaving and having their hazards on for no reason.

I'm so glad you came out of it okay.  I hate driving in bad weather and reckless driving just makes it worse.


its sooooooo hot outside, 30c. its borderline impossible to deal with

It's awful out there. It's been in the 100's here in TX

oh no, texas is basically in a desert isnt it. for me on top of heat i also get some 3 wasps a day flying into my apartament and looking around, i just got one earlier and had to kill it to get rid of it. very annoying, apparently wasps love it though

That sucks! I hate wasps and most other bugs, so I feel your annoyance.


My dentist did an awesome job on my teeth, I love them!

You must be very proud of your new set of teeth

I really am, I had bad teeth my entire life because of genetic reasons.


One year for our anniversary, an iPad showed up at my office. My boyfriend had ordered it and timed it so arrived on our exact anniversary. I didn't expect it at all!

Dang really! Sounds like you have a boyfriend that likes to shower you with presents.

He's generous yeah but I wouldn't call it "showering." He's just good about knowing what I need!

That means that he is always listening and paying attention to you!


I feel that, sometimes I feel lucky to survive single days!

I usually enjoy the weekends, but not this one.


I'm a bit upset today that the man who has lived here for a couple years has this house falling down around him and isn't fixing anything.

Oh no no no no no! Thats no man! If you aren't going to fix it then earn money to hire someone who will!

He knows how to fix things and has such talents but doesn't use them here. It made me feel angry. He's not coming back until he starts helping

Yes! I would agree! I feel bad your in that situation!


My Ac went out a month ago. I knew it was gonna be during the summer.

Were you able to get it fixed? Things break at the most inopportune times!

Not yet, I'm working on it because it apparently has to be replaced. I did buy multiple floor fans though.

Well hopefully that is keeping you a little cool!


When I see little girls around town the past week it makes me remember mine and feel sad but happy.

Where are yours and what's going on withthem?

So sorry to hear that...wish you blessings and health and peace


I went to call a patient back to be seen and I addressed them as Mrs and the person that walked up was a male.

He didnt get upset.. He said it happens alot, but I can feel my face get red!


Well I am in a relationship kind of..but they are away and I can't talk to them so I am quite lonely.

I am so sorry to hear that.  When will you see them again?

It depends on what they do in therapy. I cannot live with them they way they have been so it's a pickle.

That is so sad to hear.  I hope things go well with the therapy and you are reunited soon.


I was told by a co-worker the other day that my fly was open.  Appearantly I had been walking around for half the day with an open fly.  My face sure was red.

I can imagine how embarrassing that must have been.  I hope you didn't have to give a speech today.

I actually was supposed to give one later on that day at work.  I am glad I was told before the presentation!

Whew. Certainly must appreciate your co-workers candidness.  It happens to all of us.


So, last year my parents got me a shotgun for Christmas. I was so stoked!

Wow, that's interesting. What do you do with it?

I take it up to my cabin in Michigan and hunt a bunch of small woodland critters! I like to think of myself as the hunter from Bambi.

Oh no- Well I am the opposite. I rescue bambi and small critters :)


I was nervous about a secret I had but I hated keeping it bottled up.

Did the secret negatively affect others?

No, but some kind person came up to me and promised not to tell anybody.

I can understand that feeling. Well, if it was pretty innocuous there's no harm and keeping confidentialiy


I was going through some old photos the other day and also came across a bunch of stuff that my kids have made me through the years, It brought back so many great memories

That's wonderful! I bet it was a nice trip down memory lane.

It sure was! Some of the stuff I had forgotten about, so it was great coming across all those things

Memories are the most precious thing we can have in life I think.


My mom baked me a a cake out of nowhere. Lady doesn't even cook.

Well, I actually haven't ate it yet, haha.

Oh I see! Still, a great gesture to get a cake.


I am looking forward to going boating this weekend

We are going to the lake about 15 minutes away from me


I get to fly up and go see my girlfriend in Boston soon!

How exciting! Has it been a long time since you've seen her?

About two months! However while it is sappy, more than a day without seeing her feels like eternity.

I'm jealous! That's so sweet and I hope you have a great time!


I went to my mom's for dinner two nights ago and she didn't even cook the chicken all the way through. I nearly threw up at the table.

wow! i would have felt some type of way to. what did you do after

I can't yell at her for it, she is getting up in age and is trying her best. I gently reminded her that chicken needs to be cooked to 165 degrees and if she doesn't have a meat tempature checker, I'd get one for her

yea or be there next time she makes dinner and give her tips eating raw chicken is very bad


I woke up today to a bit of a strange sight.

Well, it was still dark and too early, but I felt like I had enough sleep.


I'm so ashamed of myself. I made a big mistake on a project for work.

It was something for an important client. Now I'm afraid this is going to screw up my career.

I'm sure you'll be fine.  Have you made many similar mistakes in the past?

No, this is the first time I've messed up anything like this.

I wouldn't worry too much about it then.  Don't let it get you down.


When I was a little girl I would have to wear shoes with holes in it to school. Everyone made fun of me all the time. My family could not afford much.

that must have been embarrassing, I hope you weren't to traumatized

I think it is a good trauma cause to this day it keeps me working hard for my dreams so that I will never have to be in that place again.

that is good to hear, it was a motivation to succeed, a great character building


The movie Clueless was a big part of my teenage years. I got to watch it with my niece last week!

Thats a good movie! so many classic themes from that area. How did it make you feel?

It made me remember how hard the teenage years are for everyone. It was fun though!

It was hard. Trying to figure out your identity and hormones and pressure. Those were good years though. I just wish i would have enjoyed them more


That is so sweet of you> I am sure that makes her so happy.

You are making memories that will last a lifetime.


I failed my driving test twice, but I was really encouraged and did better the next time.

Well that's good, sometimes it's our failures that really show us what we're made of.

I agree, I practiced and practiced and I was pleased when I passed my third time. Persistence is key.

Congratulations. I am in my twenties and still can't drive so hopefully I will get my license next year.


Every single person I know got to go on a vacation this year except for me.

I'm so sorry to hear that. Is there a reason why you couldn't?

I just don't have the funds or time away from work. Even my sister and her husband, who are as broke as me, went on one.

To be fair, travelling is expensive and probably overrated to a certain extent. I hope you do find the time to take some time away from work so you can enjoy yourself though.


The best thing is not having to explain anything to anyone. I love it

That's for sure. How long have you had your independence?


I always complain, nag, and treat my husband like crap. Which makes me feel like crap. I need to change/

Whoa, that is quite the confession. But you know, it's good that you recognize that you need to change a behavior. Very mature. Not everyone has that same ability to be honest with themselves, and you should feel proud about that!

That's true but it's not much to be proud of. You say it is but I certainly don't feel that way.

I know, and I know it can be really hard to deal with that guilt. You want to solve the problem though, and that's still worth something. Being able to take the little victories will go a long way toward the goal you want in terms of how you treat your husband.


i felt weird when i didnt have the money to pay for dinner


I had to have some extra tests ran a few weeks back due to an unclear mammogram.

Finally they came in a few days later and all is clear thank goodness.  But that was a harrowing few days!


my friend came over yea=sterday and we were sitting on the couch chit chatting and when i got up i accidentally farted. so embarrasing

she did, she didn't say anything but i know she heard it

Must have rather awkward. Remember, farting is just natural and I am sure she understands that.


I just started this new book about the American Revolution. It's not something I usually read about, so I hope it's good.

That's cool, I'm not too familiar with it myself.  Is it pretty interesting so far?

So far it is. I really think it's going to be a great book.

It's always nice to get lost in a good book.  One of my favorite hobbies.


I woke up to a strange noise in my house last night. I thought it was burglars


I remember the first time I went to the movie. It was with my friends and I was eager to go.

I think it was Toy Story. I felt strange looking at the big screen.

Wow that must have been a while back...do you still keep in touch with these friends


Having someone to call your own i essemtial in life

I dont want to fell alone but I still miss it


The final season of game of thrones is coming soon

I know. Im excited and sad at the same time.

I can't wait to find out the end of the series.


Our local organic store now stocks Indian food made by a local Indian lady - heaven, heaven, heaven!

That is very cool!  I love when food is authentic.  Do you shop there often?

About once a week. Her husband works in the store, so he brings her food in regularly. It's such a pleasure to find such a thing - I missed my Indian food!

I have never tried making Indian food myself, but I do really enjoy Indian restaurants.  I am jealous.


Man I had an absolute blast from the past last week.

I found my old elementary school.  I hear it was going to be torn down next month, so I toured the inside.

Wow, cool! Did they let you in? It's so cool you had that opportunity.


Its a red one! My uncle bought it for me!


I cant believe how fast time flies.  It feels like just yesterday sometimes

YEs it does, take advantage of the time you have now

I found an old box of photographs so ive been looking through all of them.  Seeing all these people I knew and was friends with makes me wonder what they are up to now.


Don't you think that the only one really capable of bringing you down, is you?

Yes, it is partially true. What is the problem?

There aren't any, I am just drawing a conclusion from past experience.


After studying and preaching for a few years, my husband was ordained to be a minister.

That's wonderful, it's always good when hard work pays off like that!

Yes it is and he is so devoted to God and living for Him. I was so happy for him.


when i am out of town away from my wife and son its difficult

I understand that. I bet you miss them a lot.

i do, its tough because he is still a baby

Yeah it is rough at that age to be apart. At least you can Skype and keep in touch.


Taking the kids to the lake and going fishing!

That's going to be fun, little catch and release?


I made an elaborate dinner for my Moms birthday to show my appreciation for her

I wanted to show my feelings for her with the food. I think I was able to do it by making all of her favorites.


I can't I went out with my ex's best friend while we were dating. I was a jerk but it was Karma biting her in the butt.

Right before that I found out she was seeing other people while I was in Iraq.

Yea, it worked out for the best. A few months after that I meet my wife and we have been together for 11 years now. First baby is on the way in December.


I finished my final semester of college today!

Congratulations! Do you feel relieved to be done with school?

I do! Now the tough job hunt begins...and the mountain of student loan payments...


The other day I was watching the news but not paying much attention,when I heard a familiar voice, and when I checked it turn out to be my neighbor, that was being interviewed.

That's cool, what was the interview about?

It was about he  though about some new policy.


I was walking home one time and a really big dog came charging out from a house at me barking really loudly.

Sometimes dogs just bark a lot. Did anything happen?

Thankfully not really, it stopped near me and barked a lot until someone got it, but it was really frightening until it was retrieved.

Thank goodness. I'd be scared, too. You can't really know whether a dog is harmless or not sometimes.


Oh no!  I bet it smelled bad.  Did you clean it up?

Oh, believe me it did. It's still sitting there from a few weeks ago because I don't have the courage to pick it up. I'm waiting for her to clean her mess up herself.

LOL it's been on the carpet for a few weeks???  Clean it up already.  She won't do it


i was pissed when i saw someone had dented my car door

That's not good. Guess they didn't leave their information, hu?


I feel really lucky even though I don't have much.

I came across a homeless person today and talked to him for a while.


My little brother graduated not too long ago.  He had to work hard but made it through it.

I am so glad to hear that.  Did he find a job?

He did!  He actually just started a new job that he loves and is related to his degree.

That is good to hear.  What will he be doing?


I had some girls in middle school that were very very mean to me - the epitome of mean girls.

Yeah, but they really made an impression I guess.  They pretended to be a boy that liked me and sent me notes and even a stuffed animal on Valentines.  Then told me it was them - can you imagine!?

That is mean. Girls can be mean sometimes.


I remember when me and my brother used to play video games together. nintendo and stuff.. it was so much fun. i miss those times

awww, i used to play sega with my brother :) it was awesome. streets of rage was my favorite game

i've never heard of this game. i loved playing mario and contra

oh man!!! I remember contra!! It's a shooting game right? gosh we used to play this game a lot!!


Not too long ago, I took a trip on a plane. The airline lost my whole suitcase!

Oh man! how long did it take to get your stuff back?

The whole vacation! I was so upset! I didn't have anything to wear for the duration.

Oh wow, that can sure put a damper on things.


So I've been having an issue with my neighbor. It's not super hairy yet but it could be. They constantly back into my mailbox on their way out almost every day.

Oh my gosh! Have they broken it? That would drive me nuts.

It's been knocked down a few times yes. Police have been involved but they don't do anything. My neighbor is so carefree about it too, it's bonkers!

Have you spoken to them personally? Maybe they should pay for you to move it!

We've "chatted" about it for sure. Like I said, the guy doesn't really care. Very unnerving.

Wow. I'm so sorry. Maybe you could put concrete around it so it damages their car? lol


I cried when I heard Top Gun 2 was being made.

No, sadness. I know it won't be good and will ruin the first movie.

Good point. But maybe, just maybe, it'll be brilliant.


IT is. Plus, I can never find anything to watch!


I was riding the train today, and some guy just had an open wound, practically gushing blood. He didn't seem to really mind and everyone else seemed to just be unphased by it. I guess that's city life for you.

I see that more in the country I guess. That would be horrifying. But maybe he is just immune to pain?

I don't know. Hard to tell if he was homeless or not. I felt bad for him, but I mean I didn't really have much to help him with. Hell, I don't even have health insurance myself, haha. So, since no one else reacted, I decided I shouldn't, either.

Sounds like he was ok. I've had injuries before and they weren't serious enough or worth the hassle of the emergency room. But he still had to take a trip to go somewhere. Don't be afraid to care though :) One person is all that is needed- Kindness is always good!


I am finally going to see the new Jurassic Park movie this weekend! I am super pumped about it!"

That's cool. We saw it when it came out.

I hate to ask, but please tell me it was great!


I hate seeing my friends take fancy vacations all the time.

I understand that, it is not fun to not make money the way others do

It is, and with social media it's like we are bombarded by the rich and famous.

Exactly, it makes being happy tough sometimes


When I hear the song "Walking In Memphis" I'm whisked back to vivid memories of watching "Sesame Street" with my mom in our Hong Kong apartment, fun picnics on the beach, and stuffed animals in my room...guessing they must have played that song a lot back then

That is such a beautiful memory to have. I love that we forever have moments like this... How cool Hong Kong!

Thanks :) I had a pretty happy childhood...how bout you, do you have a song that triggers memories?

I do actually quite a few mainly old country songs like daddys hands is a big one super oldie! :)


I was at a restaurant tonight and watched this man eat 5 plates of foods from the buffet. It was gross.

What a glutton. Did he happen to have a mountain of crab legs?

Ha ha, no.  I could understand seafood but this was piles of meat and potatoes and then a plates piled with desserts.  How can a stomach take it?

Man, I feel bad for his stomach. It's probably as worn out and bloated as my great granddad.


A few years ago I was able to buy my first new Car. That was such a great day.

Congratulations! Buying a car is a big investment. What was the first thing you did when you got your car.

I got a Dodge Caravan so I could do my garage sale thing. It held everything I bought that day with room to spare. always had used cars.

I happy for you. Buying a new car is a big deal.


I went on a new bike trail the other day, it was super fun but also a little scary.

Ooh how so? Were there a lot of hills and sharp turns?

Yep, exactly. I also have a new bike so between the new route and the new bike, I was totally terrified of wiping out. So I took it slow.

I see. Do you think you'll be going back on that bike trail?

Absolutely! And now that I know it better, I won't be so scared. I'm heading back out there Tuesday, can't wait!

I hope you have tons of fun and enjoy a safe trip!


My wife has been out of the country for 2 months, she gets back in a week.  I can't wait!

That's good! I bet you missed her a lot.

I really did.  It'll be great to have her back :)

I'm sure she'll have a lot to tell you about her trip!


My husband was just sent to Iraq and I already miss him so much.

Oh my goodness, is he with the armed forces?

Yes the army, he will be there for 2 years.

I cannot imagine how hard that is on the family and the soldier.  While I can't bring him home quicker, I do want to say thank you to you,  him and your family for your sacrifice.


I was listening to a guitar play the other day, and it made me cry a little.

Yes, especially when you don't expect it to be.


I felt completely discarded after my last ex ghosted me. We'd been seeing each other for a few months, and everything was fine. Then...nothing.

Aww, I'm sorry to hear that.  Was it a bad break up or did you part on good terms?

That's just it. We didn't really "break up" in the traditional sense. She just sort of stopped talking to me and I eventually texted her and said okay, thanks for the memories. But it was rough.

That's really odd.  I wonder why they didn't have the courtesy to let you know that they'd lost interest or whatever the case may be.  To just cut off contact seems a little rude.


My stepfather has been in the hospital this week and I haven't called him. I feel kind of ashamed and awkward about it.

Why, did you hesitate in the first place?

To be honest, I don't really like him. It hasn't been a very good marriage with my mom.

I see than, I could tell you that you should just overcome yourself and do it, but its you own personal business...


How exciting. What was it and did you cry?

I did cry! I was a sobbing wreck when I heard him say the word "Alaska".

Now that is a very interesting first word.


I worked really hard at studying for the SAT. I just got my scores back and I scored really high. It made my parents happy.

Wonderful! Congratulations! What are you going in too college for?

Im going to study Finance. It just goes to show that if you put your mind to it you can achieve anything.

You sure can! Hard work is required to get something of value.


When my brother fell ill we had no idea he would go so quick.

Oh wow, I'm sorry. I hope he at least didn't suffer much.

I dont think so, It was a matter of days.


i stayed in watching netflix last night for hours.


I really love being scared, but I'm also a chicken. My friends convinced me to go to a haunted house!

That sounds like so much fun! Were you scared?

I was terrified! At first I was so excited, but once we got there I didn't know if I wanted to go in!

My daughter got scared of haunted house once. It was hilarious, but I sympathise with her and you.


This girl just left her Iphone with me. She doesn't even know me

Woah, did she say she was coming back? She's awfully trusting.

Yea, she's coming back. I'm not gonna do anything with it, but someone else could easily just walk off with it.

Totally, and I bet most people would walk off with it. I have no faith in humanity.


I haven't seen my brother for ten years before he came to visit me in January.

Oh my, it must have been an exciting time for you seeing your brother after such a long time

It was. I was a little nervous too but we had such a great time catching up.

I can understand why it would be a little nerve wracking but I am glad you caught up with him


Someone keyed my truck in a restaraunt parking lot last night

Oh no, did you ask  the restaurant if they have video?

Thats unfortunate, the bright side is that it wasnt stolen and the car is still in good working condition


I started taping my mouth closed before bed, and now I'm no longer tired when I wake up, feels like I am born again

That is weird but amazing! Does it work?  If it does, I will get my husband to tape his mouth shut.  He snores like a freight train because his tongue slides back I guess.  Is that true for you?

Do you have any advice on what kind of tape?


I was driving other day. One of the driver in front used the blinker for left and took a right. I was so damn irritated!!

Yeah it was. The quality of driving is going down and down

Without a doubt, most drivers are total morons.


I went to a new store to check it out. I was really pleased with what I saw.

Oh nice. What type of stuff does the store sell?

A variety of items. Everything was so neat and clean. They sold me on it, I will go back.

That's cool. I like when stores are organized and not a chaotic mess!


I believe I did rather well on my Law School Admissions Test.

I am hoping for at least in the 150 range.

Ah thats a good score.  When i took the LSATs about 15-16 years ago I received a 156 i believe.  Where do you hope to go to school?

I am hoping to go to Mitchell Hamline in Minnesota or Syracuse


I came home to my back door being kicked in

Sorry to hear that. Do you think it was an intruder or just some prankster?

Intruder they went through all of my stuff


I have a big test coming up, I wish time would hurry up so I can get it over with.

Ahhh i bet your nerves are thru the roof. Whens the test date?

I wish you a lot of luck, and try not to let it get the best of you ( way easy to say... way hard to actually do. i know )


My husband and I signed our kids up for a co-op this year. I really hope they enjoy it.

This co-op is for homeschoolers. Its one day a week where the kids go and learn with other homeschool kids.

Oh that is really neat! i hope they like it


I was just over at some friends multi million dollar house for their sons birthday party...

Nice! Did you steal anything while you were there?

Gosh I ate as much of the food as possible.   You're right though I should have helped myself to the ol five fingered discount.

Well, at least you filled your stomach. Next time, don't forget about your pockets!


Sometimes my daughters have too much homework.

I almost feel like homework is counter productive. Shouldn't the schools be teaching the kids enough during their 8 hours?

Yes, but there's not enough time in the day for all we do.

I guess you're right. Education isn't something that can be rushed! But still, I think homework is a little excessive.


Last week a couple days after getting groceries I was looking for my childs other shoe in the car. It was then that I discovered a carton of eggs that my fiance forgot to get out of the car with the rest of the groceries!!! I was soo grossed out.

It didn't even smell but I didn't look I just took to right to the trash! Ick!


I got $20 worth of Taco Bell. I haven't ate all day.


I just can't understand how some people can be so nasty. I go a little overboard washing my hands, but I know some people who don't wash theirs at all!

I see people walk out of the bathroom all the time without washing their hands. So gross.

Gah, that's terrible. The worse I know is my cousin. One time that dude had a toe infection, he was rubbing his toe with his fingers, and all of a sudden he sticks his fingers DEEP into his mouth, I don't know why, and then he proceeds to open the fridge with the same hand. How do you NOT wash them in that situation!?

That is really disgusting. I don't think I would ever eat at his house.

You're telling me. I get real anxious about germs when I'm around him, lol.


I was in a party and I asked a girl for a date. She rejected me and told almost everyone in the party.

Wow.  That was uncalled for.  I am sorry to hear about that.  Sounds like she is not someone you would want to date anyway

Yes. I felt so bad that I left the party.

Do not let it get you down.  There are plenty of people out there who are jerks.


my friend was speeding because he wanted to show off his new car to me

Sounds like it was worth the ticket, what kind of caR?


I haven't seen my friend in 4 years, and she was at my doorstep yesterday.

That's really nice! Did you guys reconnect?

We did! I'm really glad she reached out.

It's always great to reconnect to old friends.


I feel so bad for having a drunken one night stand.

Why does that make you feel bad? You're allowed to have fun sometimes.

Oh that would be tough. Have you told your partner?


When the Eagles finally won the superbowl, I was so so happy, I cried even

Oh lord! I am glad you have something that is a healthy hobby

Me too, it is a big part of my time, watching games and tape

That's cool! It's always good to have a hobby


I've always been loyal to my wife and children above all else.

I understand I think that's a good thing.


I am so thankful for my husband, he is the best.

Significant others can be hit or miss sometimes.

If you find the right one, they are awesome.

Your husband sounds like a keeper. How long have you two been together?


I was watching the Scottish Open golf tournament a few weeks ago. I know a guy who was playing in it. Guess what? He won! Fantastic four days of baited breath and cheering him on!

That is great! Can you call him and see if we could all celebrate together?

He's playing in the PGA Championship right now or I'm sure he'd be delighted to, lol!

Well yeah, that sounds about right. He has to go to the Championship first and win, then party time !!!!!

You got it! I've been watching him play for a while now and it's such a fantastic feeling to see him win - and in his own country too!

It is really could to see friends live out their dreams! I will be cheering for him and the team!


I was a little nervous to eat some cloves of garlic for the first time

I wasn't sure if it was going to make me sick or not


I woke up extra early just to make sure I made it to work on time for my new job.

Did you get there on time? I do the same thing, I like to be prepared for any traffic that could pop up.

I did yes, I felt very ready for the first day. You never know about traffic thats right! especially in the city.

Something always comes up whenever you need to be somewhere! That's how life works!


I'm sorry to hear that. Do you think you struggle to communicate with people?

Shy? Yeah, I get that. I was too, until I started getting out more. The ability to socialize is a muscle you have to work at.


My biggest pet peeve is litterbugs. I want to go up to them and scold them for not respecting the environment.

I completely agree!  I am all about keeping the earth clean, recycling, and low waste living.  They should get bigger fines!

Yeah, maybe someone should litter in their house so they can see how it feels. And don't get me started on cigarette butts...

I'm right with you.  Oh, cigarette butts gross me out, not to mention second hand smoke which has been found to cause cancer too.


My mom dropped off some food for me out of the blue. I miss her cooking.

Nice nothing better than homemade mom lunches...what did she bring you

A lot of stir fries. I guess I'll be eating healthy this week.


It was kinda boring.  I did do laundry all day though.


i was trimming dead leaves off of my tomato plants and ended up getting swarmed by mosquitos.

That really stinks. I bet you will wear bug spray next time!

Well then maybe you should get some bats. They love to eat mosquitos!


I had made a bad mistake on a work project, and my coworker took the blame for it. I felt bad for not speaking up to my boss.

That really sucks. Did you make it up to your co-worker?

I apologized to them later about it. It was tough hearing our boss scolding them about it though.

That's good to hear that you and your co-worker mad amends. Live and learn!


I didn't think anyone remembered, however, I came home to concert tickets that my friend got for me.

Yes.  He got me tickets to Kid Rock concert tonight.

OOO Kid Rock that's one of my friends favorites!


I have a toothache and hate going to the dentist, this will put a damper on my day for sure!

Ugh dentist visits are the worst. Atleast you can look forward to taking a break from work.

Not when it's the dentist, I'd rather be at work! But my job is an easy one, so.

Oh yes, but sometimes my boss let me off when I have to go to the dentist!


Looks like it's going to be another lonely Sunday. All my room mates went back to their home towns.

Maybe you could get out and meet some new people.

I should, maybe I'll go down to the local pub, I need to get some fresh air!


I had a crazy week with 4 big events and I'm so happy to be at home relaxing in the air conditioning today. My dogs are happy too!

Air conditioning is very nice. My dogs love the outdoors but they want AC after a good, long walk!

It's very hot here today, and also a long weekend, so a little down time is nice.

Yes it is very hot and humid where I am. Always makes a good excuse to kick back in a nice, cool house!

Sure is! I will probably binge watch some Netflix in a bit too!


Yesterday always seems better to me than today. I've always felt this way.

That is no good!  Why have you been feeling so sad and depressed?

I've had a rough life, the last 40 years have been a trainwreck. Betrayal, family problems, basically I went to prison for a crime that my mother committed, and now my life is screwed.

Wow!  That does sound like a lot of misfortune!  Just try your best to think positive if you can.  You never know what the future has in store for you!


I was in a meeting one time talking about a serious subject. The most mortifying thing happened!

I was making gestures while talking. I knocked a whole bottle of water all over my boss' desk!


I watched a news report about the mistreatment of animals. The behavior of these people is something I can't stand

I hope that the punishment they receive will be a warning for others.


My sister made me a cake for my birthday!

It was a coconut rum cake! I wasn't expecting it at all, but it was a fantastic surprise

That sounds so good I love coconut rum that would have made my birthday awesome I'm glad you enjoyed it.


Yes, I think they did it on purpose. It makes me so mad thinking about it.

Have you had issues with this worker before?


I saw this guy lifting 300 pounds with one arm....it was crazy!

What! My lord that is insane for real, thats a lot of weight. Deadlift or he kept going?

Just dead lift.  I was floored!  Its amazing a muscle doesn't explode!

Yeah right, crazy what our bodies can do.


Yes but, that's like a 20 min drive each way.

Might be worth it, rather than someone else picking it up.


My coworker recently got the big promotion I was working so hard towards.

Yikes.  I'm sorry to hear.  Will there be other chances available for promotion?

Not for a long time. I was pretty upset, and wished it was me.

I'd be pretty upset, too.  Did anyone give a reason why your coworker was chosen over you?


My husband has been getting on my nerves worrying about his football team losing.

I know the feeling. What team is he rooting for?

I don't even know what team that is, haha. Football is lost on me.


it was impressive to see the lakers get lebron a few weeks ago

Yes I agree! Do you think he'll help them win some games?

i hope so.. or at least stop the warriors and let someone else win

Yes, good point. It's probably best that way.


When I went out to my garden yesterday I noticed that bugs had eaten the dandelions in my garden. I was so upset about it that I cried.

There were a few left but they had devoured most of them. I really liked those flowers!


My girlfriend is the only girl at her new job.

Oh does she feel weird about that? Where does she work?

She works at a tech company. She was kinda surprised, when she found out.

Yeah, hopefully they will hire more women soon


My mom lost her battle with cancer, I was prepared for it but it still hurts so bad.

I am so sorry to hear that! Cancer is such a horrible disease.

It is, I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.

I've actually lost two family members last year, so I can relate. It's something that will stick with you until the day you die.


I visited the great pyramid recently. I'm amazed at what ancient humans were capable of building. Quite fascinating.

Isn't it grand, I bet we no very little authentic information about them.

I wouldn't be surprised. While I do trust the experts, I'm sure there is a lot they don't know. It's still kind of a mystery as to how they built it.

I bet they are much older than we believe them to be.


I recently lost my sister to breast cancer. She was very young and has left three little girls. I have been devastated.

Wow, that truly is devastating. I wish your family can make it through these hard times :(

My parents health has deteriorated rapidly, and they refuse to go get counseling. It's very sad for me to see.

If my sister died to breast cancer, I would be so depressed to the point of my health deteriorating too. :(


I study each night and  take practice tests.


Man I was so stoked to check my bank account today

No man it was GREAT.  I finally got my first paycheck after my rasie!

oh.  SWEET!  Congrats!  What are you going to do with all that money??

Well I was gonna buy a few video games, but I'll of course set some aside.  No need to go crazy.

Save it for Spider-Man that comes out next month!  I can't wait for that

Thinking about it!  But  I may not have to, as by then I'll get another paycheck at this pay grade!

And more to come hopefully!  Don't forget to save for retirement and/or emergency fund :D


Someone twisted what I Said earlier today to make it seem like i was saying something else. I felt reall ybad.

They were angry and wanted to be aggressive.

Definitely doesn't excuse what they did.


I was furious, my wife went into my bad and took my card!

Credit card? That seems like an invasion of privacy

I agree 100 percent, she has no right to be going through my things!

Yeah, maybe have a talk with her. Or maybe think positive, she might be getting you a gift? Haha


i went to the store today and realized i took an item without paying

Oh, no! Well, it happens sometimes, we get so busy and don't notice.

that is exactly what happend, baby was crying and i forgot the case of water under the cart

Life gets us out of whack, don't feel bad. I'm sure you can pay for it next time.


When my wife left me it was so quiet in the house! it almost drove me crazy

i would love some quiet time to myself, consider yourself lucky!

hah, i hear ya. I just got so used to all the commotion i suppose.

i have a husband and three kids, its always loud in my house


I am so nervous.  When I get nervous I smoke too much.

Oh yeah.  I just quit smoking myself.  You should try something to distract you.

Nice!!  I'm trying to stay away from any form of smoking for now.


I am expecting a call from the doctor any day now. I am super nervous about it.

What happend? Do you have test results pending?

Yes, and it could potentially be serious. I don't know what I will do if it goes bad.

Well what you should do first is be with your family and those who care about you.


I was out working in my garden when I noticed my neighbor's dog had dug a hole under my fence and was running right at me barking!

Did it scare you or did you make a new friend? It happened to me a few years ago and it turns out the dog just needed a friend.

Scared the living hell out of me, because he's a pretty big dog! I ran inside and had to phone him up to come and get his dog.

Go over when your neighbor is home and make friends with the dog. Take him a ball or a treat. If it happen again you know your safe.


Man, I met this girl one time on Tinder and I totally thought we had great chemistry, but then she completely ghosted me after.

That's the worst, I know how that feels, I'm kind of being ghosted right now myself.

Aw that's awful, I wouldn't wish that on anybody. She was laughing and all smiley and everything, I can't imagine why she ghosted me.

Just remember that means it was most likely for the best that she did ghost you, you wouldn't want to be with someone like that anyways.


I was at my sons school for an event. A child threw up right in front of me.

wow that must be gross, i know it would make me feel like throwing up too

It was. I couldn't get out of there fast enough!

don't blame you, but as a parent you must see a lot of gross things coming from kids


I recently went to the circus, and I was so amazed at how the performers do their tricks!

They are really impressive.  What circus was it?

It was one of those touring circuses with limited animals. It was more about the talented acrobats and magic tricks.

Have you ever gotten to go to a Cirque du Soliel?  If you like acrobats you would love that!


I felt bad last week when I was caught in a lie. I felt like a rat


Man i tried helping homeless people in my area today.

What you did is good. They need a lot of help. Not only money, but also emotional

I didn't realize how bad life could get though. I want to dedicate my life to helping them.,,

it is good idea. You will be happy helping others.


I am all alone as well.  Everyone is gone for their summer vacations.

That sucks.  It's the same for me, only it's because we recently moved and I don't know anyone outside of work yet.

Wife and kids went to see family and my friends went hunting without me.

Ouch.  Were you too busy to go with them?


listening to metallicas ride the lightning album reminds me of high school. good times

i love listening to oldies. music now isnt as good as it used to be! memories right

yes they are luckily we will always have them!


Yep, he did. Luckily, he doesn't have to buy a totally new car.

Yeah that's good.  You're a good friend.  Good on you lad!


I kept playing a card game with my brothers, and I kept losing. They were bragging over and over, and being disrespectful. I just wanted to spend quality time with them... It gets frustrating sometimes.

Sometimes sibling rivalry dies hard -- even when you've well outgrown it. Are y'all far apart in age?

I have one that's four years old than me, and one that's eight years older than me. They do like to gang up on me, especially since it's easier just because I'm a lot less further along in life than they are because of age. They really can be tough. But I feel like it's important to stay close to family.

I love your heart. That's important. Are you a brother or a sister to them?

I'm a brother to them. And thank you for the compliment! I'll just try to stay positive.

Please do. Sometimes it takes time to mature on an emotional level. It's cool that you have that on them :-)


I'm really bummed out today, I had to get rid of my dog because I had to move across the country.

Oh you must be so sad, I know I would be if that had happened to me.

Yeah, very, but I found a good home but I'm going to miss him a lot!

That is great! I have a dog that I adopted in similar circumstances.


my car was acting up and i was able to get a good deal at the car dealer to replace it

Nice! Going to the car dealership is usually such a horrible experience.

exactly. i was really lucky and got great service and was able to walk out in a newer car.

That's awesome, hope you're enjoying your new ride!


I know that I will be on time for school on Monday.

I have set five alarms to make sure of it.

Hahaha! me too! i cant even trust an alarm.


I had a terrible experience when I was out the other day with my daughter.. people can be so rude.

What happened? Sometimes people are just having bad days.

These 2 women were standing behind us just laughing, and everytime I would look behind me they would do the thing like " oh shhh " and cover their face and laugh.

Oh, I see. Were they making fun of you guys?


Its frustrating to get paid less than other people when you are doing their job

They were just being lazy, and the work had to get done, so I had to do it

What do you do, if you don't mind me asking?


I felt so old the other day when I heard an old song from one of my favorite kids songs.

Ah, reminiscing can be nice sometimes though. What was the name of the song?

It was an intro to an old kid show called martin mystery.

I remember Martin Mystery! I loved that show.

Oh really? I remember when it first aired and i wasnt sure about it but i loved it and watched it all.

Of course, I waking up early just for it.


I might be more excited but she is too. She is going to do great.

That's great. I know she will do her best, I'm sure.


I was working the other day and my supervisor comes up to me out of nowhere, calls the entire department over and just started yelling at me for about an hour.

That's awful, what was he yelling at you about?

He thought I had messed up an order, but it was his new golden boy that had messed it up.  I took the fall, though, because it was my last day there.  I really wanted to lay the guy out though.

LOL.  Yeah, been there. Even when those guys do that and are wrong they typically never apologise. They just pretend like they weren't acting like a jerk.


I've been thinking about buying some new, softer skateboard wheels.

What makes you want to get softer wheels? Are those harder to skateboard on?

No, they make rough pavement feel smoother. I think I'll just keep the ones I have for now though. Just have to deal with having a rough ride.

I didn't know that about softer wheels! Maybe in the future you can change to those.


I used to love pokemon, thinking back on it puts me in my feelings

Yeah kids have moved on to YuGiYoh and other silly games.

I still like it a good deal, just not as much


I miss when my daughter was a baby, I wish I could go back in time

How old is she now? why do you miss her baby stage?

I see, she is probably all rambunctious now.


I've been trying to recover from a financial setback for the past few months.

It's very slow and very stressful. I'm making some progress, and struggling to hang on in the meantime.


that's right in the end everything will be fine


I was in a car accident. Both cars were totaled.

They were running from the police. It was nerve rattling.

I can believe so , Hope you get justice, and a paycheck!


I feel bad. I failed my exams. I was so prepared. I don't understand what happened.

Sometimes that happens, maybe you lost focus during?


My cat vomited on my shoes the other day

oh shoot.. thats gross.. what did you do?

as you should be.. But i guess we can never be mad at our pets huh


I had not seen my best friend in over 3 years.

Sorry to hear that. What happened to him?

He had just been busy with life. But he was at my house when I got home for work.

Oh that is a nice surprise. I bet you caught up with each other.


i really want to lose weight, i'm sure i can do it

You can. It will take some persistence. How's it going so far?

well i've been struggling because I gained too much when my wife was pregnant but i lost 10 lbs so far

Oh that's like the reverse pregnancy. When the husband gains the weight!


So, I got done with a game and I had a bat that sort of fell loose in the back of my car. It could have been bad since I didn't have the back on it, but luckily someone stopped me before I got on the highway!

Oh wow. Glad that person helped you out there.

Me too. It could have led to a very, very bad accident for someone else.

Glad to hear there's still some good people out there.


I got asked if I wanted to go to this party, but it was in a really shady part of town.

I ended up going with some friends and it was great either way.


I feel young when I play Pokemon Emerald every now and again, that game was my childhood

That was a fun one as well, I think everyone has a game like that

yep. I ca't get my kids into things like that. My daughter like minecraft


I was talking to a British friend of mine and trying to explain why our president feels compelled to tweet

I am sure that was an interesting conversation.  What did your friend think?

They think someone needs to take his phone away

Lol   I think that even the people who like him would agree with that


I just ordered a hawaiian BBQ pizza to be delivered.

omg i am so jealous of you, honestly im going to get food righht now

Go get some pizza! My mouth is watering just waiting on it to get here cause I know it's gonna be so good!

ughhh, I am goiing to make a PPJ sandwich right now.


I got to spend the day relaxing at home with my girlfriend.

That sounds awesome.  Did you guys do anything with the day off or just hang out watching TV?

We mostly watched TV but we also made cinnamon rolls. I want to try this putting strawberries in the oven thing next time.

Strawberries in cinnamon roles?  That might be really good!


My daughter can say so many new words, love to see her thrive!

That is so exciting! Such a fun time in life to watch them discover new things and always be such a surprise with what you didn't know that they already knew! ha ha, that's a tongue twister.

Yes, thank you! Having children is a wonderfull blessing. Couldn't imagine my life without my daughter. Do you have children?

I do!  An 8 year old daughter and 5 year old son.  They are my life as well so I totally get what you're saying.  How old is your daughter?


Last week the plant I work at was hit with massive layoffs.

I was fortunate enough to be one of the very few who got to keep their job, I am happy but very sad for the others.

I understand. Layoffs are hard. My brother in law has been through a lot of those at factories!


My son gave his first flute recital last week. He did great and got a standing ovation.

That is wonderful!  That is a difficult instrument to master.  Was he nervous beforehand?

He had some nerves but he practiced so well it was not that big of a deal. I was beaming the whole time!

What a wonderful moment!  Does he want to try to take it professional and be in an orchestra or does he not know yet?


Going to the beach this weekend!  Florida yayyyyyy!


I felt incredibly angry when my mom..who does everything for everyone and with a nice heart was gossiped about by my aunt until none of the family was nice to her

Wow. What gripe does your aunt have with your mom?

She just likes to talk bad about people behind their back. She just isn't very nice. She's one of those.

Those kinds of people usually have the worse self-esteem.


Our power went off the other night. We were without it until morning!

That sucks. Do you know what caused the outage?

Someone crashed into the power line I think. It was so quiet and felt pretty spooky.

You don't realize how dependent we are on electricity until the lights go out.


I had an unexpected emergency pop up and I couldn't make it in to cover him.I felt really bad for not being able to cover him.

Yeah he was really frustrated with me. I really hope he forgives me, and lets me make it up to him.

Buy him something sweet, like a chocolate cake, it usually helps.


I just found the most honest car mechanic.

That's more rare than diamonds.  You'd better hold on to him

I will.  I told him what I thought was wrong and it would have cost me $2000, but he got me out for $20.  It was amazing.


I just got home from work and I cannot even begin to tell you how mad I am right now!

What a day, huh?! Can you tell me what happened or is it still too raw?

Well, my dog decided it would be a good day to eat my shoes and then take a poop on my floor, so i had to scrub the floor clean.

That is not something I would want to come home to seeing. And your day at work was bad too, wow!


Today was supposed to be a fun day with the family, but I guess it's just going to be a quiet day inside.

Unfortunately my husband is sick, so our plans had to change.

Oh, okay. Take good care of him and he'll always love you.


I feel so bad because I took what was my daddy's rolex watch without his permission

Uh oh. For fun or you needed it for something?

he had 6 of them, I feel ashamed because he passed on last week and the family lawyer told me he willed them to me, the shame was because I didn't trust him  enough to wait

Oh, I see. Well we all think differently about things we reflect on later. Use it as a personal lesson for other things in life


i love my house, not the biggest on the block but i ts enough


I cant wait for Friday! I go on vacation to New York!

I agree. I never been there so Im so happy!


One day I walked out front door and there was a coral snake laying there. I jumped and ran back inside

I would have done the same! I don't like snakes

I found a garden snake in my yard the other day and despite it being little it still creeped me out


I feel alone most of the time and I kinda enjoy it

Is it because you are surrounded by people most of the time? I get that way sometimes too, so I can relate.

At work I am, so when I get home I am perfectly fine being alone

It is good that you enjoy your alone time. Sometimes we just need a little "me-time".


There was this one time when my family was on a roadtrip and we got lost in the middle of no where at night.

Yeah, it was pretty frightening. But we eventually found a small city.


Man on the months before my move across country, Time seemed to go so slow.

It was, It was all I could think about, now I am here and It was worth the wait.

im sure it is, this is when you put all your hard work into play


Im riding some roller coasters this weekend

Up in Louisville.  It's going to be awesome.  First time ever.  They're built safe, arent they?


I went skydiving a couple months ago and seriously had to trust that the guy going with me knew what he was doing.

oh wow! I've always wanted to do that. You're quite brave

Thanks! I don't know how brave I am but I trusted the tandem diver.

It's good to have someone with you who knows what they're doing, though. That certainly helps!


I finally got my dad's birthday present.


I'm looking forward to the upcoming weekend.

I hear you on that. I'm visiting my girlfriend, but she still has to work, so the weekend is really the only time we can hang out. Do you have any special plans?

That's a good idea. We actually did that last weekend. I guess it makes sense to do that as much as you can before summer is over. I hope you have a nice time!


That sucks.  I hate when friends move away.  Are you really good friends with them?

Best friends for 10 years. Her husband got a good job so Im happy for her

At least she's moving for a good reason.  I had a similar thing with a childhood friend who moved for school.


I had a bad experience out to eat the other day.  I don't do it too often, so it was a bummer.

That doesn't sound good. What happened that was so bad?

The food was pretty bad and the service didn't help clear things up.  There were a lot of mistakes on top of everything.  Just general bad eating out things.

That sounds like an awful experience. I probably wouldn't go back there anytime soon.


Our house burned down and my husband lost his 1969 Camaro.

It happened 7 years ago but with the California fire it brings back a rush of emotions.

I am sure it does.  I am really sorry about all of that.


While I was at the grocery store I was in line behind a nice, but very confused older person who had trouble getting their credit card to work.

That can be frustrating. Did you do anything to help?

No, I thought the cashier was going to help her, but instead, she started getting very frustrated and began saying some very mean and ugly things to the customer.

Oh that is terrible, cashiers should have more patience.


My neighbor asked me to watch over his dog. I told him he could trust me, but he escaped and ran away.

That must have made you feel terrible. Were you able to find the dog?

I feel so bad. I forgot to lock the gate. No, but I put up a lot of posters, so hopefully I find him before my neighbor comes back.

I sincerely hope you can find him! But I bet your neighbor will understand it was just a mistake and you didn't do it on purpose.


My wife and I have been together for 5 years

Just staying faithful.  That girl is so loyal I love her so much.


I cant believe my brother snitched on me. He told my girlfriend I cheated on her.

Oooh, that's rough. Did you make him mad?

No, he just doesn't understand the meaning of loyalty.

Well, I hope you can work things out at least


I'm pretty stoked because I'm putting together this business idea in my head.  If done right with my friend we could rake in a ton of cash

It involves splitting up some freelancing work and maximizing productivity.

That sounds like a really cool idea. I hope that it turns out well!


I am so happy with life right now. I have my family, shelter, food, and transportation. Can't complain!

That is a wonderful attitude to have!  Being content and happy with your life is so important!

Yes indeed. I really can't wish for anything because I have everything I need.

Most people always complain about what they don't have and never stop to appreciate what they do have.


I am so tired of hauling garbage to the county dump.

Are you cleaning out a house or do you not have garbage pick-up?

The company in my city just quit picking up for any of the residents, so the dump has a line every day.

That is insane! I've never heard of anything like that before.  You all should start protesting!


My daughter is doing so well in school that she flew through 3rd grade a year early and is starting 4th grade next week. I'm amazing at how well she's doing!

that is amazing. children can amazing you if you give them the opportunity

She is a go getter but things seems to come easily to her which I'm thankful for.  I'm having trouble keeping up!

it's crazy the things they are learning now. it makes you feel like a dummy


I stubbed my toe in the shower this morning...it felt like my world was coming to an abrupt end.

Oh no! I hate when that happens! Does it still hurt?

It does. It's all red and puffy. I am afraid that it's going to fall off any minute now!

Sorry to hear that! Definitely need to make sure it doesn't fall off!


My coworker got the job promotion that I had been working so hard to get.

That sucks. I have had that happen. It did not feel good.

It doesn't I felt I worked harder for it, too.

Sounds like you deserved that promotion.


Do you ever get those moments where you wonder where life would be if you did one thing differently? Like for me, I always feel embarrassed to think if I hadn't gone to college, maybe my life would be easier?...

Of course, hindsight is 20/20. But going forward you can live in a way that minimizes regret.

I suppose that's true. I feel like sometimes my family may view me as a disgrace for not doing much with my life.

It's really not for them to judge. Do what makes you happy.

That is true. i have to think of that more often.

I know the feelings I had up until my 20's. Then I just realized how much they had no right to judge me.


I just totaled my car recently. I had it for well over a decade, it was like a part of me.

Oh man, I am sorry! I have been there, it sucks! Are you okay though?

I got a little whiplash but other than that I am fine. My pride is wounded though, I will really miss that car.

I am glad you are okay. I wrecked my favorite car 3 years ago and I still miss it.


Hey, I was planning a party and asked my friend to get some stuff for it, I knew I could count on him though.

Oh yeah, he always comes through, he's very reliable and a good friend.

That's great I have a couple of friends like that


Oh, congratulations! That's awesome. When's the wedding?

We haven't set a date yet, but my heart is filled with happiness

I can imagine. Now you have to get planning the wedding. Should be fun


WHat are you anticipating for next year?

My finances are going to improve significantly.

That is awesome to hear.  So relieving isn't it


They did.  I've struggled with trying to be more social, I think it makes life more fun.

People are face to face anymore. Its kind of sad

It really is.  Wonder how we can go about changing things.


One more month and I get to go on a vacation to the beach! Its been 5 years so I'm chomping at the bit! Yay!

Outer Banks, North Carolina.  I love that area!  We'll be in Corolla.


The ONE time I had my security camera off, someone stole my lawn mower!

No joke? That's terrible. Why was the security camera off? And seriously, who steals a lawn mower? What bums.

I use these new wireless cameras that need to be taken down and charged every so often. I should have charged it while I was home!

Oh, that makes sense. I had no idea, since I've never used them. That sounds really inconvenient. Maybe they were waiting for the perfect moment to strike... What chumps.


I felt good about my job interview, I think that I have a good chance to get the job

Whoop Whoop! That's awesome! I hope you get the job.


Not that long ago, my husband planned a secret trip for us! I didn't have a clue he was doing it and was pleasantly shocked. It was so much fun!

We just took a weekend trip to Tunica, MS. We stayed at a really nice casino hotel and just played some Blackjack, enjoyed good food and each other's company!

I love Tunica. Did you win at blackjack?


I want to evertually move to new york and be closer to my brother and friend , im just a bit afraid as i really dont know much about anything there

Moving to a new place can make you uneasy, but once you make a couple of friends you'll get over it.

Thank you, that actually made me feel better im planning on moving there early spring

New York is very beautiful and the people there are very friendly, so i'm sure you'll do fine.


I didn't have high expectations for this new restaurant in town but my friend and I had dinner there last week and it was better than I thought it would be!

That's always a positive in my book, what kind of food was it?  What were your reservations about the restaurant before going?

It was seafood and no, they weren't. Usually the restaurants in that particular building don't last long  at all.

Is it in a bad part of town or is the building just bad luck or run down?


I am going to my favorite restaurant tomorrow i cant wait

That's cool. What are you gonna eat there?

Shrimp and fried rice. It is a Japanese place

Oh sweet is it one of those where they cook it in front of you?


I stripped in front of the cute barista at the coffee shop. I dont think I can return.

Oh yeah why is that? Did the cops drag you out?

Whoops!!! I mean I tripped. What an inconvenient typo!!! I must be so frazzled.

hahah stripped sounded so much better but okay tripped! I gotcha


Even though I'm no longer Catholic I still put my faith in a Supreme, Higher Power because with all the dumb choices I've made in life it's a miracle I'm still here.

Ah, I've made plenty of dumb choices in my life too. Honestly, I think it's part of being young

Yes well I'm glad I got it out of my system

That's good :) But you are the wiser for it


I was anxious when I applied for graduate school


Yes! Other people always trying to make life stink lol. No big upsets, no drama. I hope it continues


Yesterday I went to the doctor  and had to get a shot.

I am having shoulder pain from an injury 7-8 years ago.  He decided I should have a cortisone shot.

Sorry to hear that. I have same issues with my knees.


I know! Ain't it annoying? This whole typing with my feet thing is getting old pretty fast.


Every time I make jello, I think of the jello shots me and my roomie used to make on weekends.

Some jello shots? I've got no one to enjoy them with anymore.


I was scared the other night when I heard several gunshots in a row.

I am. I am in a very dangerous neighborhood so you just never know if it's going to get you and the police don't show up.

Yikes. If I was you, I would get my own gun! Better to have it and not need it, then have not have it then need it!


My hamster got out of its cage and I haven't been able to find him


I feel so isolated. I just moved to a new city where I don't know anyone.

I know how you feel I can be lonely sometimes.

It really is! I don't have any family or friends around. I miss them!

I recommend taking some time to explore the city and find an hobby or interest and join some groups. It takes time to find a new set of friends.


i pooped my pants at disneyworld, no one suspected me but it was stinking the rides up

Wow that is not cool, why not tell your parents?

Ah okay, well that makes a big difference


So I was at work today, wearing some slightly tight jeans, since they're slim fit, and I bent over and they split. Just like in the movies. I meant people could see my undies...

Oh my god, I would have been so embarrassed! How'd you react?

mortified. Tried to pretend it didn't happen. At first no one noticed, but then they all figured it out. I left at lunch time :(

So you left work at lunch time? Did you come back or were you too ashamed?

I came back! Was worried about getting fired. People will probably tease me for a bit, but oh well.

Yeah, I mean things happen. Better to put it in the back of your head and keep trucking along.


One big pet peeve of mine is a poor person complaining about his/her situation and doing absolutely nothing to fix it

i get that. i am in pain every morning and get up and go to work everyday. so it's hard to find sympathy from me

My point exactly.  You're a hard worker despite your physical pains.  I was born in a third world country and am now self-employed with full financial autonomy, my own car, apartment, and supportive friends and family...DON'T TELL ME you can't fix your life. You just don't want it bad enough

exactly. it really drives me nuts when people feel like they entitled to this or that.


I was on vacation last week and for the most part the trip was good.  except for one small part

I saw a ghost at the hotel.  After that I couldnt fall asleep.  They told me the next day it was haunted.  I was so scared

Man that does sound scary! I hope that it didn't follow you home!


Haven't seen my friends in a while, we had such a great time at the lake.

Nice. When was the last you have seen them?


A girl hit on me at an event, but I've got a girlfriend. Not interested.

Thats right,  You have to stay faithful to the one you love.

Yea, I don't understand people who stray when you've already got a good thing.

Exactly,  People just want what they cant have.  such a bad human trait.


My uncle helped me out with $1,000 when moving out of state recently.

thats awesome i bet you were very thankful

Yeah, for sure. I'm not sure I could have really done it without some help.


I will stay there at least ten more years.


Sorry I hit the wrong button. I'm a teacher and I'm at a new school and my goal was NOT to make a fool of myself so of course first hour....I tripped over my stool and fell.


I ate my coworkers food recently, I feel bad but they left it there for awhile

HaHa What kind of food did they leave for you? Did you say anything to them?

I ate their wings and so it was kinda hard to hide because my fingers were orange.... whoops

LOL It really shouldn't be funny but for some reason you are making me laugh! I guess that will teach them to leave their lunch sitting around! haha


I have a bunker in my back yard with a ton of food in case of a natural disaster.

That sounds delightful. I have a tornado approaching now and would like it if you lived near me.

Maybe I do! I have enough food for about a year, so I should be set for a while.


i felt bad when i couldnt get my daughter the gift she wanted

Well that is a very expensive gift, she cannot expect to get stuff that costs so much!


I thought I saw a ghost in my kitchen last night. I screamed!

I would have totally screamed! Were you alone? What did you do?

Yes I was. I turned on the light and it was the shadow of a tree. It really gave me a scare!

I bet it did. I'm glad you were able to figure out what it was and hopefully you got some sleep afterwards.


I can't believe my sister stole money from me recently.

Oh really? That sucks, if they just asked people would usually be ok with it too.

I know right? She really can be a pain sometimes.

Hopefully it isnt for anything horrid like drugs.


they dont deliver at a decent time and everyone has terrible attitudes


I was driving down the interstate and a car almost hit me going 90 mph.

Oh my gosh. You must have been horrified. I can't even imagine.

I was and super upset! No blinker, didnt care, didnt even look! Kept right on going too

Thank goodness you are ok though. That could have been really, really bad.


I put on a pair of shorts I havent worn in a while and I found $20. That never happens to me.

I always hear about it happening to others but never me. I got myself a good lunch with that.

Yum, sounds like a good use of the money! Hopefully you find some more spare money haha


I really care for my family, they mean a lot to me

That's really sweet. Is there any member of your family you are particularly close with?

My brothers, neither in particular though

Siblings can be our closest confidants, and in a lot of cases, lifelong friends.


I was on the bus the other day and saw the grossest thing.

Someone left something and it started molding and was growing so much.


I had plans with my friend to go to dinner, but I chose to stay at work to make more money

Were you able to reschedule with your friend?

No. She's not taking my calls currently.


i was happy when i saw lebron james go to the lakers

That is awesome!  He is such an amazing athlete!  Any team that has him is lucky!

I guarantee they will!  That's raw talent right there!


It was my birthday and my mother came to surprise me.

Aw thats so nice, how did she surprise you?

She showed up to my house and brought me a cake.


My father passed away about 2 1/2 years ago. It was totally unexpected and really was very traumatic and hurtful to me. He was still quite young and my family and I had no idea he had a life threatening health issue.

I am sorry to hear that, I hope you had some time together before hand

I was pretty close to my father and always lived close by. But, you always wish you had more time. But, the last words I said to him was that I loved him, and I'm grateful for that.

That is good at least, you had some closure at the worst


I've spent all day packing.. I think I'm ready for vacation!

Yay! where are you going? are you excited?

We're going to the beach down in FL... It


I really do not like the new text and drive laws.

No - did you used to text while driving?

Yes, and I never got into any accidents.

But maybe some people aren't as consientous as you and did get into accidents


I booked a vacation house on the coast and we drove to the place. Upon arriving the driveway was blocked with other people's cars, to which none of the owners were anywhere to be found.

That must have been so frustrating!!! Were you able to find them fairly quickly? And how?!

We did not, instead we had to park very far away and walk the rest for the first entire day. Eventually the people came back and moved the cars in the middle of the first night so we had to sacrifice more time the next day to retrieve our car.

SO frustrating. Hopefully you were able to provide feedback to the owner. Not sure they could/can *do* anything about it, but still -- maybe you've helped pay it forward to the next visitor!


I came home from work today and my husband had dinner already made!

Haha my husband plays video games as well, but we limited it to after my daughter goes to bed only.

That is a really good idea. He must be thoughtful to have cooked dinner for you and had it ready, unlike mine


I work at a soup kitchen and there was this man who comes in every week. I think talking to me is the only contact he ever gets.

People who take the time to help others are truely angels on Earth. Thank you for doing what you do.

Thank you but it never seems like it's enough. I always want to do more!


Awesome! Have you been looking forward to it?

Great! I hope you have fun and remember it for a long time


Last year during the spring, our area got record rainfall. My basement ended up getting flooded and destroying many of my childhood things and keepsakes.

That's the worst! Because now you'll be freaking out trying to think of the things you may not even remember whether or not could have been there. That must be an anxious feeling.

It really is, it just sucks losing all of those things. They were like my connection to the past.

Yeah, I'm not quite a hoarder or a packrat when it comes to those things, but I do get sentimental with some physical objects. If I lost them, I'd feel like it would be an itch I couldn't scratch, because I couldn't replace what I lost. Hopefully you can work past it somehow.


I was all alone last week when my dog got out

I'm sorry to hear that! Did you find your dog?


I had to write a essay for class. Luckily it was on a topic i love.

Those are the most fun sorts of essays to write - and the easiest.  How do you think you did?

I think I did pretty good. I pretty much knocked it out within 30 minutes.

Wow!  Sounded like a real breeze!  What did you write about?


i have such a great family. my wife and son are awesome!

It is. Mine are all grown now and it's like they grow up right before your eyes in a blink.


I'm going to volunteer at a local food bank. I hope I can make a positive difference.

That is amazing.  I have had to use a food bank before.  I was so gracious.

I am great back on my feet.  I just needed a little help.


I wasextremele upset when I found out a classmate was being cruel to my daughter

Oh that is terrible! Kids are so mean! What did you do?

I spoke with the school counselor and told her the concerns of my daughter's that it will get worse


I am a gamer and i saw all the new game trailers , i saw the trailer for resident evil 2 last night it was so awesome !!!

what sort of games ? I used to be really into diablo 2 when i was younger


I amde enough money lately that i feel comfortable and ready to take on anything!

Wow I envy you. That sounds like a wonderful feeling!

You will get there too! I just know my future will hold good things.

Thank you! I hope to feel that content someday!


I'll get to go on vacation tomorrow. Been working really hard to get things clear up so I can enjoy myself.

OMG!!!!! That sounds amazing! Its going to be epic. I hope you have a great time.


So, I was putting on my cow poke boots the other day and found a snake in my boot!

Thankfully not. My trusty dog managed to dispose of it rather quickly. Never been so afraid in my life.

I'm glad nothing bad happen, snake venom can really mess you up...
