Sunday Confessions: 4-7-24
"I bought season tickets to our local polo club mainly to find dates."
I fell asleep around 8:13 pm last night despite needing to pack to leave town this morning. I still haven’t really done that either despite the threat of looming eclipse traffic in Austin. While I should be heading the opposite direction of the traffic, I still get weirdly worried on most travel days even if they’re straightforward.
Yes, I’m missing the eclipse here.
Yes, I’m okay with it.
This week’s confessions.
I’ve spent the last 3 hours googling excuses so I can call off tomorrow.
I really love my job but lately all I’ve wanted to do it quit and finish writing my book that has taken way too long to finish. I know my husband will freak out if I actually decide to do it because we rely too much on our dual incomes.
I worked up the courage to resign from my job that I absolutely hate last week. I’m graduating soon, found a new job, and have 3 trips planned for this year. I hope I’m finally entering my happy era!
My friends are immature and selfish. I need new ones.
I’m seeing this guy who’s really nice, but he’s boring and so uninteresting and I keep thinking of breaking it off with him but I’m 33 and I don’t think I’ll find someone better than him. I’ve made weekend plans to avoid talking to him entirely.
Spent the entire weekend getting yelled at by my boss because his five star resort isn’t luxe enough for him whilst I sit at home with all my debt.
I posted a selfie about going to a party, but I was lay down in bed, watching Netflix and eating Cheetos.
Went out for one and woke up at home on floor with gash on face covered in blood - must have fallen over. Who knows.
My mom hasn’t been involved with a single aspect of my wedding planning and it’s making me resent her terribly.
I am tired and do not want to go to church today, but I am going because I love God.
I’m pregnant and I’m craving EVERYTHING. At the same time, it’s all disgusting. Can’t win right now.
In my 30's and realizing I might actually be into guys.
I think I like telling people I’m not drinking more than I like not drinking.
I bought season tickets to our local polo club mainly to find dates because I’m tired of dating broke boys. To be fair, I do also love the horses.
Every time I initiate plans I find out all my friends are doing something together without me. I’m disappointed in myself for putting the most effort into the wrong friendships, and now I’m just alone.
Attended a good friend’s bachelorette, met her high school and college friends, it was not a great weekend. The girls are generally unkind, especially her best friend from high school. Makes me rethink our friendship entirely.
I still use my ex’s CVS account (from 10 years ago) to steal his rewards. That grown man grocery shops there, so the points are GOOD.
I’m making the most money I ever have at a premier firm I have dreamed about working for, for years, and I don’t think I can take the pressure but also can’t quit. Now what?
I slept in the front seat of the car bc I apparently refused to come to bed when we got home.
Last night I had a dream about a dinner party hosted by Sunday Scaries. It was held at a lake house and involved a truck full of parmesan cheese being delivered to the kitchen.
Called my ex last night just to catch up - found out he has a new girlfriend (we broke up last week) - I lied and told him that I’m seeing a guy and that he is perfect, when realistically I got drunk on champagne and cried myself to sleep.
I turn 37 this week and feel bad I haven’t given my parents any grandchildren.
I truly believe I’m the smartest person on my team and that I should have gotten more than a 3% raise.
Being a female and the breadwinner isn’t fun.
Two of my friends announced pregnancies this weekend and now I wanna be pregnant too.
I need new friends and to drop out of bookclub.
Hooked up with a 21-year old guy (I’m 31). It was fantastic. He doesn’t talk to me. I’m miss him and his [redacted].
I took my board exam this past week and I’m terrified that I failed because if I did, it feels as though I let so many people down. My grad program that has a perfect pass rate, my professors, my preceptors, my family, my friends… myself.
My BIL is vile. He is demanding his inheritance despite both parents being alive. He’s withholding their access to the grandkids until he gets it. My in-laws agreed to pay him.
Went to Hawaii to visit a friend, and fell for him. He has no interest in me, so now I’m back in the mainland, partially heartbroken. Rough vacation.
I like a coworker but he has a gf and I am married, we have so much chemistry but we know where we stand... I like him a lot.
I slept with a friend, she's married we live in different cities and her husband lives abroad. We reignite the flame that we had 5 years ago before she married. I don't regret nothing I just needed to let it out.
I love my coworker and he’s leaving me for another city.
does being an adult really consist of rotating friend groups often? i find myself shifting between my 2-3 groups, but like how long will this go on? my work, school, and life friends all have to have separate events and weekend outings. it’s exhausting.
Pregnant! Can’t tell anyone yet so thought I’d share here to get off my chest.
All one of my friends talks about is how much she wants to get engaged, and no matter how much I ask her to stop talking about it, she continues to bring it up. It’s getting really exhausting and I’m not sure how much longer I can take it.
Work is requiring ~in person days~ and I’ve never questioned my career and future goals more.
Golf trip was really brought down by my friend cheating. Realized I’ll have to beat him by 10 for him to acknowledge I win.
Sometimes I fantasize being railed by a random guy in my car in a parking lot. I’m married.
Keep trying to lose weight but also keep enjoying that nice glass (or two) of wine each night.
I have a bad habit of looking at my partner’s Reddit account regularly without them knowing. It’s mostly boring stuff, but every now and then I see a post about me.
In laws are visiting to meet our newborn. I frequently say the baby has to nurse so I can get away from them.
I think I met the love of my life this weekend in Austin. Red flag, it happened at Buford’s.
I became a godmother and I’m nervous I cursed my godchild because I lied in a few parts when the priest had the godparents renew their baptismal promises.
Ahhh, when worlds collide. Have a Monday, everyone.
