The Girls Only Thread

[HowToDisappear]

I was thinking of moving the orientation from the long wall to the opposite side corner where the TV and crendenza/bookcase are, so it would create more of an intimate corner seating space. This is what worried my husband. Moving the TV is a big deal. Ah hell, I still haven't sat on any of them yet, either.

Betabrand just released the women's executive hoodie.

I want to get one for myself, but not sure if I want to spend that much on it. If I do want to spend that much, I'm not sure which one to get.

[HowToDisappear]

Cute. I like the grey one. But then, if you haven't guessed already, I like grey.

[chiapet]

Hrm, Robin, you've been talking about this.. for a while. I think they're really cute. Like the grey one better, though I probably wouldn't buy that for myself because I ruin light colored clothing, invariably.

[Robin]

YES! That company has been teasing me for a while saying it'll be on its way. Just got the email that it's now released.
Besides the price, the only other thing that's keeping me from hitting the "buy" button is that they're dry clean only.

[amyzzz]

That is pricey.

[miscorrections]

Why the hell is that $168? It's cute, but I mean...it's just a flippin' hoodie. It's not $168 cute. I'm sure there are similar designs out there for much, much less.

[chairmenmeow47]

i like the concept, but yeah, holy crap that's expensive!!! instead of keeping a tattered old hoodie at work, i've started wearing more cardigans and suit jackets. not quite as comfy, but a little more "professional".

also, holy fuck cramps have been attacking me all week. even on depo and after surgery this shit still hurts like a bitch. go the fuck away!!!

[ENluv12]

Depo made my cramps WAAAAAAAAAAY worse. I might just be weird though.

On another note, I am getting nervous... I am applying for a new job within my company today.

[chairmenmeow47]

i can't really say my cramps are worse since my endometriosis is gone, but it's still pissing me off.

good luck! why are you nervous?

[algunz]

HtD, how small is your living room and how big is your tv because I really like the 4th sofa? The natural wood legs are awesome and it is so nice when two people can lay comfortably on a sofa together.

Robin, how much would you pay for a suit jacket? It makes sense to me that the hoodie is that much and dry clean only.

[Robin]

My hoodies go through a lot of abuse, so I really can't see myself spending that much money on it. I posted it on FB in hopes that my family will see it and get the hint, since xmas is coming up.

Depo got rid of my cramps, but it has been giving me hot/cold flashes once in a while.

Good luck on the job!

[chiapet]

Wow. I didn't realize they were that much. That's kind of ridiculous, especially considering Betabrand's stuff is not really that well constructed. They're so cute though. The cut of them wouldn't look good on me, otherwise I would have already ordered one because I have no restraint at all.

[algunz]

But . . . it's an EXECUTIVE hoodie. What kind of abuse do you endure at the "office?"

[ENluv12]

I am nervous because it is a really hard job to get, and this is my first time really applying for another position within my company. I have been here about 2.5 years and it is my first career type job since college. It is a LOT more money, too. Interviews make me nervous.

I like to roll around in the dirt during my smoke breaks.

I didn't know where else to post this, but if any of you use Chrome, you should download this plug-in

It searches for coupon codes for a lot of retailers when you check out, like at Amazon.com, BathandBodyWorks, Target, Sephora...

It's ok to be nervous, it just means it's important to you. Check out my job search thread if you would like some pointers for interviewing. I wish you the best of luck!

Thanks girls! I am just being silly, it is just a first! I can't wait though, it will be a big step if I get it

As much as I hate the cramping that comes with the beginning of my menstrual cycle, there's also a part of me that always wants to do a little fist pump because hell yeah I don't have to carry a fetus around in my body.

It's the little things.

[Mugwog]

I don't necessarily enjoy my GF's cycle either, it has proven to be a dreadful time, but after the confirmation no baby, so awesome.

Speaking of which: I've used high purity cacao dark chocolate in appeasing my lady's mood, what else works for you ladies at that time of the month so you don't lose it when it comes to friends, family and lovers?

[amyzzz]

That is a weird way to look at it.

Midol and alone time.

[Mugwog]

She doesn't want alone time when we have free time to spend with one another and doesn't like midol...she's a naturalist.... HALP.

[guedita]

Back rubs and herbal tea.

[chairmenmeow47]

some rough dicking down

[ThatGirl]

Advil and wine, or take a hot bath while eating a Popsicle. Weird but it works.

[miscorrections]

Or just suck it up and don't let your life get disrupted every month.

[HowToDisappear]

Pretty much that.

I realize there are a percentage of women whose biochemistry generates genuine, severe physical and/or emotional upset before or during their periods, so I'm not being dismissive, but I do think it's just a certain percentage. I think there are plenty of women who use it as an excuse to behave badly, and that's not acceptable.
