Posted in Why do I do this to myself? Posted 3 years ago
    It can be scary to have things made official. Whenever you're comfortable you'll get to it.
    Oh my word, these new breeds of Pokémon are no joke.

    I actually looked down at my watch after reading that you were decorating for Christmas. Not that a watch is going to help me determine when the right time to begin decorating is, or what day it is, but it felt early to me, haha.

    And I'm doing well, just sort of tittering around the house and taking care of small tasks that fall by the wayside. How about yourself/ves?
    Oh no, I'm no sudoku player.

    I think the dress-up system might be the only reason I hop back on Gaia every so often. Occasionally I'll have an idea to be more active, and then I just toss it in the proverbial back-burner.
    That sounds like a bureaucratic nightmare.

    Oof, that's tough. A friend of mine snapped his tooth in half when his ski came up. Smacked him right in the face.

    I don't miss living with room mates. I had some great ones, but I also had some of the trashiest and most disgusting women as room mates. I would spend the evening cleaning the kitchen after dinner, making sure all of the dishes were cleaned and put away. In the morning--almost without fail--this one woman would bake muffins or cook bacon, leave a massive goopy/greasy mess, and then use the serving bowls as storage by placing a fucking plate over them and then pushing them into the refrigerator. She was so gross, and so rude.

    I have no problem telling just about everyone I know that she also got so intoxicated she would just pee on the floor.

    Another one would leave her little dog with us and take off on vacations all the time. She would say something like "Okay, I'll see you later," and leave. You'd think, oh, she's going for an errand. Nope, one week she would leave and not tell anyone AND not leave any food for her animal. We would care for it, train it, and then she would come back and bitch that we didn't buy dog food for her animal then untrain it.

    I don't miss that place and I honestly hope they all lead horrible lives.
Posted in Fave candies? Posted 3 years ago
    I think I'm partial to gummy candy. I like the gummy peaches, strawberry puffs, and frogs--mostly Haribo candy. I also found these really delightful rose throat drops, and musk melon hard candies.

    Aside from a very rare indulgence, I don't really seek out sweet things like candy.

    Oh, they’re cute. I haven’t tried the nail wraps personally, but I do still get ads for the luxury ones. I found that I enjoyed using press-ons.

Posted in engagement rings arrived :DDD Posted 3 years ago
    Did the proposal already happen, or are you going to re-create it? It's very exciting!

    And I do, haha. I'm a pretty simple person and don't wear jewelry most of the time, so it fits me perfectly. We were both talking recently about how great the salesperson was; no pressure, very clever with figuring out our tastes (we went in empty-headed). She has been e-mailing my partner about wedding bands but we haven't made plans quite yet. One of the things I thought was impressive was the suggestion to get a cathedral setting so that the wedding band fit snug against the engagement ring--a suggestion we both loved.

    On the plus side, if I wanted to get a more elaborate wedding band, it won't compete with the simple design of the engagement ring.
Posted in Job Interviews Are Scary Posted 3 years ago
    The interview for one of my favorite jobs was pretty bad as an example, haha. I was flippant and didn't have any questions, but I got the job and I was the only employee that stuck around; most lasted only a couple of months at best (one didn't even make it a week). I loved that job.

    I usually just do a little research before to familiarize myself before even applying, then just answer whatever questions they have. I never seem to be interested enough to ask questions to the interviewer and I don't like playing those stupid "what if" games.

    That's pretty cute.
Posted in engagement rings arrived :DDD Posted 3 years ago
    Ohhh, it's lovely! I was looking at that design shape, but my partner preferred something more traditional. We ended up settling on a princess cut with a silver band.

    I found some really beautiful artistic rings and found that I was really attracted to the ones that weren't symmetrical, or had raw gems instead of diamonds.
