@DrMadness hell yes! Potentially big news for this thread if the rest of my interview process pans out, but I don't want to jinx it. In smaller fuck yeahs, a friend got on my ass about my skincare and pretty much dragged me to the store to get some products. My skin feels great and I'm hooked now.
I've had a hell of a month but I can now announce now that my pup is cancer free!!!! Still never out of the woods but this is the best news I could possibly get this week!!
I wanted to share something amazing that happened this past weekend.. My mother did the sweetest, most thoughtful thing that anyone has ever done for me. She held on to Lil Truff, my childhood teddy bear for close to 40 years and re-gifted him to me. Every time I read this letter or look at him, I burst into tears. All of the memories from my childhood come rushing back and it seems like it was only yesterday that I was giving this little guy haircuts. To anyone that says toys are silly or that toys aren’t important, show them this.. This little guy has now become my most treasured possession that I will ever own..
@zindabad That’s rad, dude! Stoked to hear of clearer skin, and hope to hear of bigger news soon! @foto junkaay That is WONDERFUL news!!! Very happy to hear of a successful treatment process, and that you’ll have more time with your fuzzy friend. I am sorry to hear of a stressful month, but hopefully this is the start of a positive snowball effect! All my best! @noeleaser I remember readin’ about this on Instagram, man. So unbelievably sweet of your mom. A re - gifting of something that important to you is so cool. Giving the bear new meaning, while also creating a second, new meaning. Really rad. <3 Thank you guys for sharing! It’s very warming for me to see this thread title light up red when I’m having a bad day or my anxiety creeps up, and reading that good, rad people are experiencing cool and rad happenings.
I’m curious to know what products you’ve picked up, please feel free to PM me if you prefer.. I’ve also heard that drinking more water helps with your skin. I drink at least 96 ounces a day and you skin looks pretty decent for doing the bare minimum.. I’ve also heard that changing your sheets/pillowcases help as well. The oils from your face build up on your sheets pretty quickly.. Good luck on your quest for better skin!
@foto junkaay Great to hear your pupper is cancer free!! @noeleaser Thanks for sharing that heartwarming story! Haha and for making me tear up at work! @spatula007 Happy birthday to your boys!
Both of our moms were in town this past weekend for my fiance's baby shower. My mom insisted that I read that letter out loud. Everyone in the room was in tears, including myself.. lol
I debuted a new resin toy at Five Points and sold 2 toys (from a run of 5). Which might sound minuscule but it actually feels pretty damn great. So...FUCK YEAH! Here's a thread for anyone curious.
I'm onto my final round of interviews and will hopefully have a job offer in a couple of weeks. I still plan to search nonstop but having something in-hand would take a lot of pressure off me.
Bumping this thread to say I got my job offer today, and potentially another on the way. It's been a hard couple of months; thank you to everyone for riding them out with me
These past two weeks for my fiancé and I have left us a bit anxious but today at her biweekly ogyn visit (she’s pregnant, 8months!) we got good news that her glucose results showed no signs of gestational diabetes! Fuck yeah!
Yessss!! Congrats! We just had our baby yesterday and I am completely enamored by this little guy.. Good luck with the rest of the pregnancy!!!
Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce you to River Russo Ellerbe! He was born on 7/11at 3:25am. He weighs 7 lbs, oz and is 20.75 inches long. He’s a sweet little dude, I can’t wait to see all of the amazing things this little dude accomplishes!! I’m such a proud dad right now.. lol.
Woah! Congrats! Our baby isn’t due till late september but I can’t wait. I tear up when I feel her kicking so I can’t imagine how I’ll be when she’s actually in my arms lol
Just wait until you hear her tiny little squeaks and cries for the first time as she enters this world. I completely lost it. It was the happiest moment of my life, it completely turned me into a different person. I feel like I now have purpose when I never have in the past. Get ready man, it’s a blast...
@noeleaser CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! @Max Rodriguez That is very good news. We had a similar scare/concern a couple of years ago with my wife's pregnancy. I'm glad it's over. Those tests are awful, and I was just a spectator.
@noeleaser dude I’ll be in that same storm drenched boat! @spatula007 Her doc told us she’d call good or bad and we didn’t get a single damn call so that didn’t help at all but yeah glad everythings okay. She is especially cause it means she doesn’t have be on a strict diet lol. Fuck yeah to not being on a diet!
as to not start a new thread just for a random thought... i kind of just go fuck yeah sometimes while looking. Does anyone else randomly look at your collection and instantly can recall certain stories on how, or why specific pieces were acquired? I look over my collection, and there is some good stories on how some of it went down.
How's this for not helpful... A year or two ago someone, can't remember who, started a thread asking for just this sort of story... can't remember what it was called! Little help, anyone? I'll keep digging. EDIT: Not the one I was thinking of, but this could work, @eckotyper --- http://skullbrain.org/bb/index.php?threads/tales-of-unbelievable-toy-finds-and-coincidences.53049/ Type away for our pleasure!
CONGRATULATIONS!! and lol at my occasional dyslexia transposing it to "50.72 inches long" and confusing the hell out of me for a second
