if you cant beat em....join em?

 

I'm the founding member... err fondling member..

 

Hmm. The most recent I have are from this heaven/hell costume party I went to about a week after the breakup (so about a month ago). And holy crap do my boobs look just plain ridiculous in the costume I wore.



I'll be doing a photoshoot in about 3 months with a photographer friend of mine that lives in Houston. We're going to Frederick's for some kind of corset/boustier with lowrider jeans outfit. I should be in epic shape/have an epic tan by then.

 

omg.... if you have pictures then....

 

Please share the wealth after the photo shoot.

 

 

this has taken quite a turn. i feel like ive earned a pm

 

you're still young and have a lot to live for. i went through something similar 3 years ago. despite the hard aches you eventually just want to only appreciate and remember the good times.

as i was reading, i was just glad there was no mention of marriage/kids, because that's like 80% of san antonio. it's something no guy like me prefers

 

damn.. bugeye.. epic might not be description enough. PM requested.

 

obvious subtle post, lol

 

Damn those hard aches.

Not sure if I'll ever get married. I just don't see the reasoning, at least not at this point in my life. I've seen a lot of friends get married, get divorced, and end up hating each other. If I ever get to the point where I do want marriage, I want to be absolutely sure, not an ounce of doubt in my mind, that the person is perfect for me.

Don't get me started on kids. I have an 18 month old nephew, and he's cute as a button and very sweet, but holy crap am I glad to hand him back to my sister after watching him. Too much responsibility; I'm way too young.

I really don't plan on dating/getting involved in anything serious for at least a couple years. Being alone isn't that bad. I work out for about 2 hours 6 days a week, and do just cardio on the 7th day. I didn't need to lose any fat, just tone/get in shape. In 3 months' time, I should look pretty amazing.

 

You'll need to NOT workout 1-2 days a week to let your muscles rest and build. You should also be getting at least 8 hours of sleep, and staying VERY hydrated. Make sure you're eating well, too. Otherwise your workouts won't be as effective.

You might know this already, but I thought I would add just in case.

I'm good looking too, so if you're in SoCal and want to hook up, I'm sure I can free up some time on my calendar. I'm here to help

 

 

I've been dating the same girl for about 4 years (met in law school) and everything was fine when we were still in school. Then she and I start practicing as attorneys and I realize that 95% of the things she says now is about how: 1. working sucks, 2. she regrets going to law school, 3. Her life sucks. I'd probably post about my problems as well, but I wouldn't get nearly the same feedback since I'm a guy.

On a side note, nursing still seems to be a solid field - my mom is a Dean of Nurses at a hospital here in So Cal; she's always talking about how short staffed she is and how she needs to hire nurses.

If you're ever in So Cal, give me a call and we can do drinks and talk about shitty relationships.

 

sure you would.. but half of the responses would be for nude pics of your girl..

 

^ I think I still might have some... some where...

 

nice costume pic

 

PM Request!

 

exercising definitely will help you feel good. and being single is awesome. i've been spoiling myself. but like you, a lot of my friends got married and honestly they all say they wish they didn't so young. but things are already looking very good for you. you seem busy and content with other things you got going on.
im actually at uthscsa

 

I took last Saturday off, I'll probably take this Saturday off too. I did arms yesterday, and they're killing me today. Ass/legs tonight, so I'll be a fine mess by tomorrow, haha.

I've been on a pretty strict diet. I stopped drinking soda altogether (I used to have a major Diet Coke problem). I only drink water during the day, and I'll have one G2 before/during my work out. I limit my red meat consumption to once a week (including pork), the rest of my protein is turkey/chicken/eggs/protein shakes. I've really cut down on the carbs, too. I'll let myself eat some wheat toast or a whole wheat tortilla every now and then, but that's about it.

I usually drink a protein shake w/ strawberries or a banana for breakfast, something light like grilled chicken and broccoli for lunch, and turkey burgers or a turkey wrap with a leafy salad for dinner. It's bland, but it's cheap and I feel really good. I haven't eaten anything fried in well over a month.

It's so hard to try to make someone happy that isn't happy with themselves. Out of curiosity, why do you stay with her? I could be wrong, but it doesn't sound like her outlook on life is going to change any time soon, and she'll just drag you down with her (hah, been there, done that). Just don't make the mistake of marrying her. I've had a couple guy friends that think that marriage fixes everything; lo and behold 6 months later, she's just as miserable as ever, and now it's 10x harder to break up.

How does she feel about you playing WoW?

I think RNs are one of the professions that are expected to experience continued job growth over the next 10 years . It should be a solid career choice.

A lot of the CRNA programs I like are in California, and I've always wanted to live on the west coast. Once I graduate, I won't be able to get out of Texas fast enough, hah. California (along with Portland, OR, and Seattle, WA), are on my list of places I'd consider moving to. If the offer's still good in a couple years, I may take you up on it.

Do you work or go to school there? That's the nursing school I'll be applying to in January. :P

I'm sure I'll see you at some of the meets this summer. I don't have many friends in this area so I go to a lot of car meets these days.

 

sounds good; one way or another sounds like we'll run into each other haha
and i work here

 

Kind of on the cooling phase now, but well a couple factors really. But one major one being she's currently staying at my place... that and I tell myself that she's just going through a phase...

FML sounds familiar...

Ugh... WoW is the bane of her existence. I mean I like spending time with my women, but I am not wired to spend every waking moment with them. Is asking to raid 3 days a week from 6:00-9:30 too much.... really?

In fact she tries to make it a point to tell everyone we meet that I play WoW as an attempt to embarrass me. But I actually don't get embarrassed by it and alot of people are actually surprised that I play WoW since I don't fit the typical WoW playing stereotype. (i.e. not over weight, not nerdy looking and a practicing attorney).

The guys on my league basketball team (former track team buddies from college) couldn't believe that I was an avid WoW player.

Suite! Do it. An attractive, WoW playing, subie loving (I used to own an STi) chick? Sounds like a female version of me.

Speaking of which, I'm trying to get behind a used Subie as my next car. Figure its the last time I'll have a fun car before I have to settle for an old mans luxury sedan.

 

ok, I'll take one for the team

....who's your friend?

 

That's Heather, my former coworker/bff. She cried when we said goodbye before I moved to Texas.

She also hated my ex, for what it's worth. Most of my friends did, actually. Heh.

 

looking good!!

working out solves alot issues!! my thread i had was pretty F"UPD, i took about 3 weeks to be sad and depressed. Then i woke up one day and said F this Shit!! i need to snap out of this, i said, i'm going to change my behaviors and create a habit..First step was join gym, second step, eat right! egg whites, veg, fruits, lean meat, tuna, chicken, ect...been doing this for a month now, i work out 6 days a week, gained 10lbs of muscle. Feel great!! My ex even noticed and sent me a text saying i look good...It will never happen again..I'm more focused on myself than anybody else, "rome wasn't built overnight" this is what i tell myself, and i see myself being very happy by summer.. short term goals is the key...

good luck!!

 

I waited 4 pages for this?

 

There are positives about Texas - 1) Not much cold weather 2) No state sales tax 3) Did not accept Gov't TARP funds 4) Not as crowded as CA, and better managed, too. 5) Great state parks 6) tequila is the state drink (Not Lone Star).

 

does she have questionable moral values?

 

Wow your are surprising out of proportion to your little frame.

 

Florida didn't have a state income tax either.

They're both hot as fugg in the summer, I guess the upside is at least San Antonio doesn't have all the humidity.

I had a boyfriend once tell me that my boob:stomach ratio was insane.

The weird part is that none of the other women in my family have big boobs. My sisters and my mom are all C cups. Guess I got the mutant huge boob gene.

 

We thank you for that. Oh, post pics of said sisters.

 

Sarah, disregard my comment on your status. I didn't know until I just read this thread.

Stay strong!

 

I almost sent you a PM, then I forgot

 

Bugeye, you are an idol to me for making that kind of decision. It is a big step and I wish I made that kind of decision long ago.

 

I saw Diet Coke mentioned as bad for a diet. I have a buddy that swears on that shit. Obviously if the rest of your diet is good then yeah you probably won't get fat. But is drinking Diet Coke/Pepsi the same as drinking water in the sense of diet?

 

 

x2

 

agreed

 

Diet soda is better than regular soda, because it doesn't have the empty calories, but it's definitely not as good as water. I've heard/read conflicting arguments on why diet soda isn't good (causes insulin spikes, makes you crave carbohydrates, aspartame breaks down into methanol and other harmful chemicals, etc etc), but I'd rather just cut it out altogether than worry about why it isn't good for me.

I used to go through a 12-pack of Diet Coke in 4 days.

 

Off topic....sort of....but I feel your pain on the drive bugeye.

I drove Ft Lauderdale to Houston straight through Sat/Sun. That SUCKED. I was only able to do it since I had someone else to switch off with though.
