Listen....one will ruin your furniture and shits in a box that makes your house smell, and is generally rude, while the other is loving and loves walks and fetch and is just a ray of sunshine.

I've just had bad experiences with cats, the one I had was an asshole and my dog was a beautiful cinnamon roll
The dogs my cousins had were pretty vicious towards me. One nearly bit and tore my fingers off.

i likey both kitties and doggies but im biased towards the pups since i has these boys:
the one at the bottom ( with the ball ) has recently left me though. im still devastated. he was my heart doggie.
the other one is practically a cat. all he does is laze about all day long.

She was rolling over to be petted. Does it every time you bend down near her so its impossible to get her to sit still
Best of both worlds. Maybe I will get a more cat-like dog in the future.
My favorite small dog breed! RIP cute floofy dog.
Yeah, my cousin's pom is also pretty cat-like. Picky eater and is content with just chilling all day.

A dog ripped a scar into my left shoulder so I like cats. Well I don't dislike dogs but I'd prefer them not to be near me. I have no cat of my own but my sister has a cute one.

I've mulled over the idea of having more pets. I was caring after two ferrets for the past two years, but we recently had to let them go. Not sure if I'd want a cat or dog first.
Thanks!
Heh, nice.

300chf ain't shit to me
So just popping back in here to say... I survived my breast reduction! I'm now 4 days post-op and I feel good! I hardly had any pain, even right after surgery, and only took panadol (tylenol) to manage the pain up until Wednesday afternoon. Since then I've been painkiller-free.
My breasts look so much better and feel so much lighter! I have minimal bruising -- my left breast has some yellow bruising, the right one looks more or less normal (besides the incisions). I also haven't noticed any loss of sensation. Right now they've got me in a 38C compression bra (but my breasts may get smaller as the swelling goes down). I was wearing 30GG before. Nearly 1 kg (around 2 lbs) was removed from my breasts. My posture improved immediately. I no longer have the dull ache in my shoulders and neck anymore, either. It really was like an instant cure for those things.
As far as drawbacks or negatives, there have been few. I reacted pretty badly to the anesthesia but I knew that would be the case from prior experience with surgery. So the first two days I was pretty groggy and had a stomach ache. On the third day that went away though and I was up and walking all around the hospital. I also had drains in my breasts up until the third day and those are a bit of a hassle to deal with.
One of the most annoying things has been the fact that I have to sleep on my back for at least 2 weeks. I really hate sleeping on my back. :/ And having to wear this compression bra 24/7 is also a lot more annoying than I expected. But hopefully at my 2-week follow-up my doctor will allow me to switch to a cotton sports bra.
All in all a very positive experience so far, and I'm very happy I've gone through with it.

Good to hear! I'm considering scheduling a medical appointment to get mine reduced, right now I'm in a 36F and its just such a hassle to run. I think the Air Force will pay for it, but I dunno.
Either way I'm definitely gonna look into it.

Tricare will pay for it. You just have to have pcm refer you. And I use a binder designed for ftm transition for pt as yeah these things get way in the way and they need to be strapped down.

Thanks! From what I've heard the first two weeks are the worst, and then it's smooth sailing from there on out. It's pretty amazing how the human body is capable of healing itself at such a rate
Thank you! Good advice, which I have heeded -- I stocked up on protein-rich food and snacks while I took a quick walk to the store with my husband today.
Hoping that will also help regrow some of my hair which fell out due to the stress of the surgery.You absolutely should look into it. I put it off for a long time because I just assumed that I would never get approved by my health insurance. Finally I brought my neck and back pain up to my gynecologist and it shocked me when she said she thought I would be approved quite easily.
Thank you

does anyone else have the problem with eyeliner pens that they just don't give any color after a week or so?
this happens to me everytime.
talking about something like this:
since this is the only eyeliner I can handle maybe you guys know a brand that doesn'T do this? :S

Happy to hear things went okay, cloud! Hoping for a full, healthy recovery
Thank you both!
I'm now one week in and doing well, have a bit of achy soreness today, but nothing too bad!
I had the exact same problem with pen liners. Specifically, the tip usually dried out for me which made making that precise wing really tough when only the side of the pen will write :/
I switched to liquid liner but not really feeling it, the pen is just way faster! So I'm interested in any recommendations or tips too.

I've always used pencils, could never get on with liquids. Not tried pens though.
As long as you keep the pencil sharp and room temperature it's super easy to put on.

Two rad as fuck vinyls: Double check
And a tablet to browse the GAF: Check!
Life is good! Got an entire week off to lounge around and enjoy this fantastic weather. I can get used to not wearing my gym instructor outfit for a few days!
Also, check this album out if you ladies have a bit of spare time, it's perfection!

Lol I'm such a mess. Go in to try to shop for clothes, mostly just a shirt, leave with nothing but depression and self hate. Clothes shopping is the worst, it's why I only go maybe once every couple years if I can help it, or just steal clothes from my mom.

Dude you're beautiful. I feel you, it's hard to shop for me too. But, and I know this is easier said than done, but take the time to learn to love your body. I'm serious.
Last year I hated how I looked. I couldn't even look in the mirror. But I made an effort to be kind to myself, and to appreciate that this is who I was, and it made me so much happier. I'm not a twig, and I'm definitely not perfect, but I'm me. And that's all that matters.
PM me if you ever wanna talk about it.
This is a true lesson that we all need to follow. It's funny to think about it now, since I was just reading through that Biggest Loser thread. Seriously, screw that show.
I'm here too if you need to talk about stuff, Leeness.

Glad you guys are happy and comfortable with yourselves and how you look
<3I never will be so there's really no talking to be had. I was just lamenting that I hate shopping for clothes. I'll probably just end up buying the cheapest, shittiest stuff I can get at Walmart because...who cares that I look like trash in it anyway, it's cheap! Then I won't have to shop for another 2 or 3 years haha, and then the cycle begins anew when I inevitably have to buy more clothes because the old ones are falling apart.

I feel like you told this to us already, but I forgot, so what do you do again
Can't go wrong with a good business suit (or ten!)
I just really, really like dresses. Nothing too frilly or poofy; I feel like dresses are just so low maintenance / convenient. Literally just one article of clothing that covers everything. You can just slip one on and go. Pants are too much work @_@ - the waist, the butt/hips, the length, the crotch wedgies ... so much to worry about that's eliminated with a simple dress.
the ones i wear day to day are mostly from G2000, but the nicer ones are from CUE :>

Oooh Cue looks awesome.
It's kinda expensive though
Yeah! They are where I got the niceynicey suits that I only wear to ~occasions~ $$$$$
;___;
but they are nice and they fit like a dream! their sizes are a bit unforgiving though :< i usually can go for a 6 (australian size.... american's 2, i think) for most brands, but for CUE, i have to carefully try them on first cuz there are times the 8 is more fitting.
UNFORGIVINGU~
but they are nice
they also have structured dresses that are super classy *_____*

Sephora's liquid eyeliner is always on point for me
That's the one I've been using too, and I like it a lot, I suppose I should just stick with it...
I've seen this Etude House one on sale for 5 bucks, seems really cheap... has anyone used it?
Oh sweetie I'm sorry you feel this way
I do understand. Clothes shopping used to be a total nightmare for me too. There's nothing that will make a woman feel more "abnormal" then going to a clothing store with mass produced items like H&M where everything is just cut to fit the masses... when nothing fit me, It was just a reminder to me that my body proportions didn't fit in with what's considered average. "Ankle" pants that go way past my feet, jeans too tight in the waist but too loose in the leg, shirts I couldn't even get over my head thanks to my giant boobs... the list goes on. Incredibly frustrating and always left me feeling pretty shitty.What helped me a lot was researching fashion blogs online. I looked specifically for blogs of women who had a similar body type to mine. There's a wealth of information out there! It really helped me to be able to identify on the rack what would work for my body type and what wouldn't before I tried it on. Also found out about a few faux pas's that I had been committing that uh... didn't exactly flatter my body type. I also feel like it really helped me learn how to express myself through fashion. Now I love clothes shopping... well, at least shopping for most things. Bathing suits and dresses were always a problem area for me, but that was easily remedied by just not wearing those things very often.

I've also heard good things. I've been using the Stila Waterproof one but the waterproof is almost too much of an overkill for me, if I screw up (which half the time I will) it's next to impossible to fix without redoing my whole face.

I mostly use Bare Necessities, I like their concealer / face products (it doesn't feel wicked greasy) and their eyeliner is nice. I find their mascara to be kind of lacking though, so I usually go with another brand.
