Wow Rebecca, that's the mom of one of mac's friends? I guess you aren't besties then, are you?Makes me very grateful for the parents of my kids' friends, most of them are my people.
Favorite thing on that page btw was a bit further down. Here's the caption/grabber under Ted Cruz's photo:
Ted Cruz is just one candidate for the Republican nomination for U.S. President in a field that includes a tycoon and a neurosurgeon in addition to governors and congressmen. These candidates have a lot in common, but a lot MORE that separates them. Find out where [candidate surname] stands on immigration reform, combating ISIS, raising the minimum wage and the legality of gay marriage.
And here's the one for Hillary Clinton:

I just found out that my cousin is going to be on an episode of Transparent. Cool! Now I've got to get caught up on that show.
I have not had one friend amongst the parents of any of macs friends. Friendly? Sure, but no one to hang with.
This people, although I suspect now are politically my polar opposites, are at least respectful of rsvps and times and whatnot. Their kid is polite.
Polite and thoughtful are both good. But yeah, it'd be nice to have friends nearby.
OK I need to go tuck my 10 yo in bed. Because tomorrow he'll go to 11.
You ever been completely upset with someone but it isn't a thing you can voice to them for reasons but you can't get over your own feelings? So freaking frustrating. I have been trying to tell my brain that the thing that has me upset wasn't done to me, or in spite, or with malicious intent (I assume). I still feel slighted, disrespected, avoided, and more. I know no amount of talking with the person in question would change these feelings. If anything it would make them worse. These are MY feelings that I need to process somehow.
I hate that, Suzi. But that's what OTHER friends (and/or internet friends!) are for? (ETA: I mean, to voice those things to) I also hate when I have a dream about someone, and am irrationally upset with them because of their DREAM actions...which have no basis in reality...but I still can't help but feel hurt/jealous/embarrassed or whatever.
Very true, meara. Thanks. And yes, add hurt/jealous/boggled to my other feelings.
I have a friend I can vent to tomorrow. I would rather not put the situation on blast here. I just so knotted up and it has been days and my rage/upset/whatever has only increased.
(I hope internet hugs are okay)
I love hugs (I luv hugs - sorry went to a Supernatural place).
