The problem with facebook groups is that they’re full of humans.

We give chipmunks the cold shoulder, because they utterly lack a sense of fair play. Running up trees and buildings! Dishonorable little creeps.
I have yet to find a FB group I can tolerate for more than a few days.
I’m all dressed and ready to go hiking, but my husband was pissy and I may have called it off even though I want to go. I confess that I’m very torn between stomping out to do other things and talking to him about restarting the day, except that at this point I’m probably pissier than he was in the first place and am not feeling conciliatory. This is the second day in a row I’ve gotten all ready to do something other than work out here at home, and been thwarted.
However, on the bright side I feel like I’ve clicked back into place in terms of workouts. I’m ANGRY that people are screwing with my plans, rather than being relieved, as I would have been a couple of months ago.

Promise me you’ll floss tonight. (Referring to the dental-hygiene activity, not whatever it is you kids mean when you sing/rap about ‘flossing.’)

Well, looks like I can get out of flossing.
I ended up doing a nice workout. It’s about 1/3 of what some of the others do as their second or third workout but still ~25min of a good lung breaker
???
I don’t think anyone sings about flossing. Except for that irrelevant backpack kid
I think that’s it. It’s like human nature but amplified by mass and validation.
Formula for Suck in standard form:
For any given hobby H, the quantity of suck S will increase by the product of number of people involved M and how much the buy each others bs.
S of H= M x (bs/M)
I’m always down for a quick and clean restart. I don’t like spending a day with that aire of apprehension that things aren’t right or that the next thing is going to be the one that makes everything go kaboom.

hopy crap that’s good!
Thank you. I was pretty good at equation modeling when I was doing it, but a little rusty after, what, like 15 years?

I did exactly that. I posted, took 2-3 minutes more to sulk, then raised the white flag, which he happily accepted. We actually had kind of the best day ever - a hike before lunch, which we abandoned because there were too many tourists, and then another after lunch on a less-traveled part of the Appalachian Trail, followed by pizza and a shared bottle of red wine. Nice!
We’ll head out in just a little bit for another. It’s 27 degrees here right now, and it was 42-45 degrees for yesterday’s hikes. I have to remember how cold weather works, because it looks like we’re headed there.

There is suspicious moaning coming from that girl my roommate brought over last night in the room parallel to mine. They must be wrestling!
I confess that I had a bacon cheeseburger and fries from Five Guys this afternoon while on the two-hour drive home from a family function in my sister’s hometown.
I confess that I finished about half of my daughter’s little cheeseburger that she didn’t want.
I confess that I was still hungry.

We went to taco mama today and I ate all of mine, and half of each one of my kids (2). It’s the biggest benefit of taking kids out to eat.

I had Popeye’s for the first time. I liked it.
That’s it.

Insomnia/night terrors speedbagged me into submission last night. Now, because I’m exhausted and on edge, I keep hallucinating that there’s shit moving in the corners of my vision. Why watch a horror movie when I can live in one for a day?

I confess I am such a fast food addict that I REALLY want you to tell me what you had so I can live vicariously through you.
@SvenG the food is made to MAKE you hungry, haha. The salt is the key. If you ever eat a plain chicken breast and a baked potato, you might not even make it through the meal. Meanwhile, here’s how much 5 guys you can put away if you put your mind to it

Confession: I always wondered if most people on these forums are introverts
Genuine question: why would you think so?
