Assorted stuff

Didn’t mean to exclude the men in that last post. I just want to add that I really appreciate the male voices in our community. Glad you’re here, guys.

Check out my friend’s new blog. Go over and welcome the Princess of Tides to our corner of the blogospere.

Random piece of info: I ate M&Ms at 10am today. That’s kind of screwed up.

What do you all think of a New York area holiday meet-up? I have been avoiding holiday events this year. My office holiday party was on beta day. No f#*&ing way was I going to that one. Bagged on an event earlier this week. Planning on bagging on a big family Hanukkah party at a cousin’s. I’m not up for dealing with the stupid or insensitive questions and comments. If a group of us in the area got together in the next few weeks, we could have a festive occasion without that other crap. We could have a big ole pity party if we want to. The point is, it would be OURS! We could confine the stupid or insensitive questions and comments to a party game. Go around the table and see who’s had to deal with the worst one. The prize would be chocolate. Duh! Could also have a “best snarky comeback” contest. Bonus points for actually have said it! Those of us not cycling could make it a drinking game. So … what do you think? An IF Holiday Pity Party?

Don't forget to check out what the rest of the class is showing.

Just so you know.....M&M's are an all day food. Well, in my opinion anyway! I hope you have a good weekend!

I think a get together would be great. I am all the way across the country, otherwise I'd be all up to it!

I met with a blogger buddy recently here in CA, and then met some of her IFer friends from her support group, and now we all meet up once in a while. It's great - it's just US, no pressure, no insensitivity, and everyone gets it. I hope you get some people to join in and get a group going!

I saw on ivfc that princess of tides had started her blog - thanks for linking it here - I'm going to go check it out!

If I lived closer, I would be there!

I have so much worse foods and earlier so don't feel bad. I wish I was in New York because I would love to come...it sounds like fun!

I'd be up for it - time is the only difficulty. Let's plan on it! We'll just have to figure out timing.

ok so first off. What's wrong with M&M's in the morning???? On the other one, I wish I were in New York and I'd come too. It sounds like fun.

I think chocolate tastes better either too early or too late in the day.

Tag! You're it!
