My boyfriend and I took our dog swimming for the first time ever. She seemed to like it and I'm excited to take her more often. My bf waded out to his knees with her but she was shy to go above her chest. It was fun.

God lord, that is beyond anything I can imagine. I'm so sorry. I don't know what I can offer other than to say than we are here to listen/support if you need anyone apart from your inner circle.

Oh my goodness, I can't even imagine. I'm so sorry to hear about this. I'm going to echo what SmoothG has said. I don't think we've ever spoken, but always here to listen.

Thanks, I wasn't trying to hijack a happy thread and bring it down. Sorry if I did. I appreciate the sentiments.

Sometimes the anonymity of the internet makes being open and vulnerable in difficult times easier than it is with the people around you.

Kind of reminds me of the word sonder:
n. the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own—populated with their own ambitions, friends, routines, worries and inherited craziness—an epic story that continues invisibly around you like an anthill sprawling deep underground, with elaborate passageways to thousands of other lives that you’ll never know existed, in which you might appear only once...

Scrolling past all the usernames and comments sometimes its easy to forget that everyone is a real person and their own unique life and troubles.

I got McCartney tickets this morning. Pretty happy about that.

I saw a recent video of Andy MacDonald, and it made me happy to see that he is still wearing the neon yellow helmet.

Paid off my balances of all my credit cards in full (always pay in full monthly, but it's always a good feeling); signing a lease for a new apartment tonight; penguins game tonight; just a great day all around. not necessarily happy, but certainly a relieved feeling

How bad did you Flacco this day?

Awesome and catchy song.

The worst thing for me is I work with three Brandys and I can't stop humming that song.

Great sports weekend for me. Kentucky Oaks was yesterday, Kentucky Derby today, Auburn playing Alabama in softball and baseball, Braves hosting the Cards. Gonna be a good one.

The first "adult movie" I ever saw was a compilation of ladies taking "money shots" to this song. It ruined the song for me.

Sperry has a very rare 30% off sale today...grabbed a new pair of boat shoes for the summer plus two pairs of already-discounted boots (one pair duck boots and one lower boot for work). $200, not bad!

[Speilmen230]

Had a shitty Monday and my co-worker offered to take me out to lunch today and get an adult beverage with it. His treat. Definitely not ok by company standards, but I'm not going to tell if he doesn't tell.

Thankful for the people in and around my life.

Thanks

Might grab some flip flops.. even at 30% off those boat shoes at $100+ I can find them cheaper in my local mall.

This is a great post. Sonder is also one of my favorite words.

Phase one of this desk I'm building as sort of a project is almost done. Super happy about that.

[daveshookme]

My boss pulled me aside earlier to encourage me to apply for a promotion that just opened. That felt really good.

[defcon]

People finally leaving me the fuck alone. That's what made me happy today. Walked in the door at 2:35, 25 minutes prior to the formal start of my shift. I've been busy busy busy with bullshit until about 15 minutes ago. Literally 90% bullshit.

All you can eat sushi

[Lee3691]

It's in the news because a guy was arrested for attacking another, but man do I love Burbank Airport, the only airport I fly to that does not have a tarmack, so you get to go down the steps in the back if you want. I wonder if the fight started because one guy wanted to go to the back, and someone didn't like that.


Also, Tyler, all you can eat sushi is gross. I don't want to eat sushi that is all you can eat.

[TheLastPig]

Yeah if sushi is sitting out for grabs... its not good sushi

Nice. Good luck, man!

Thanks. I really want the position but I'm in school currently have a year left. My program is really difficult to transfer, so it'd be a real tough choice as to if I want to essentially drop out of school which would put me on track to make a whole lot more than they're probably going to offer me or take the job and relocate and progress the career in currently in.

Good thing I don't need an answer until they offer me the position. It's a managerial position, which I've never had but know I could do. I have no formal managerial experience as far as staying within budgets and interviewing applicants and all that jazz, so we'll see what happens.

Not when they make it fresh. What they do is make it then serve it. It's not just sitting out

It's like served to you on a huge plate after you order. A guy is making it as right their. It's not buffet style

[tyler3440]

Look I'm not saying it's the best sushi I ever had. But it's fine and well worth it. Y'all make it sound like it's fucking gas station sushi.

"All you can eat" Sushi, isn't just sitting out. At least not where I have had it. You basically pay for all you can eat and then order rolls. They make them fresh and serve it to you. All the places that I have been that do something like this will actually charge you extra if they make a roll that you cannot finish to deter you from ordering more than you can eat since they make it fresh to order. (so they don't waste it)
