We met at 11 pm in the law school parking lot and drove about an hour into the mountains. We skied under the moon about an hour to a shelter with a wood stove and made hot chocolate and then skied back. It was so quiet and dreamy with blankets of white snow everywhere catching the light of the moon. My boyfriend and I got home at 3 am or so and probably slept in and missed class. It is one of my happiest memories.

That sounds heavenly.

It really does.

Agree. I haven’t seen my parents in about as long. Now my dad has cancer.

It was a freaking pelican. How the hell would I know that? But whatever - I'll be ready with pelican compliments the next time we talk.

This hilarious.

Thinking of pelicans, did you see this?

It’s supposed to be a pelican too!

Does the internet still have chat rooms?

I used to love these.

What’s a shitty marriage got to do with the fact that you don’t have any friends?

Please don’t comment if you have nothing positive to share. This thread is lovely. These posts remind me of good times from years past. And the ones to come.

What would you like to chat about?

Anything...really. A life experience about something that made you happy or made you feel special.

When I was 4, I got to do a reading at my church. I felt like a rockstar. And you?

Lol when I was 10 I was in the children's choir. I got to be the main singer up on the alter and lead the songs. My choir director told me not to wear open backed shoes (those clog type shoes were popular then) because I may step out of them when getting up. I ignored him , my foot fell out, and I tripped on the altar. My mom said it was God's way of reminding me to listen to my elders lol.

I had shrimp tacos today and that made me happy. It's Taco Tuesdaaaaaaaaay!!! You gotta find joy where you can get it. OP, do you have any hobbies that can occupy your time and make you feel less lonely? Running or painting? Picked up any good books lately? Sorry you feel lonely.

We ordered a dining table from Walmart. It didn't show up. Walmart called and said it got lost in shipping. So we went to Macy's and bought another dining table that cost twice as much. But then we got an email from FedEx saying Walmart table is going to arrive tomorrow. We are supposed to be getting a refund on said table. We might get a free dining table! We might get two dining tables which we don't really have room for. We'll find out!

I'm sorry it's not a better story, but this is the most exciting thing happening to me that's not apocalyptic.

I started life as a chubby kid. Mom took me to the Husky section in Sears. Anyone remember the Husky section? Anyway, remained chubby through my teens, was teased, embarrassed to take off my shirt at the pool, etc.
Just turned 50 and in the best shape of my life. Occasionally I’ll run into a HS classmate and the reaction I get is priceless. They’re out of shape and balding or bald. I don’t throw it in their face, but damn it feels good knowing the years have been better on me and rough on them.

Were you fat when you got married?

And now taking your clothes off and screwing guys you meet on the Internet? Time to get some serious therapy.

Quite a lot. Unfortunately, I used to have many good friends. My wife never liked hanging out with most of them. I rarely get to see them anymore. Also, I sometimes feel bad when I see them because I don't like talking about my marriage.
