QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Mar 29, 2017 -> 12:41 AM) Went on a first date tonight with a girl that I met online. She was really cool, we got along really well, talked for 3 hours at the restaurant, but I feel so shallow because what I didn't notice when she sat down, I noticed when we got up to leave. This girl has massive hips/ass. Like her upper body is maybe a little bigger than average, nothing that I am not ok with, but man, it honestly looks like she walks different because her hips are so big. I feel so bad. I'm going to keep talking to her and see her again to see if I can get over it, but I am already finding myself thinking of excuses to let her down for reasons other than that, obviously. It probably doesn't help that my ex and I had a crazy drunk night house sitting for my aunt's huge house over the weekend. We talked about wanting to do it again sometime soon, so now I am kind of wanting to keep going with that for a little bit, even though I know it's not healthy or whatever. I met my gf online almost 2 years ago and before we actually met we would Skype or Oovoo. I'm not sure about you, but we both wanted to make sure we were who we said we are before driving almost 90 minutes to see each other. This allowed both of us to see each other live and show instant reaction without hiding it from each other.

QUOTE (shipps @ Mar 14, 2017 -> 11:24 AM) I left the house at 545 and didnt get to work until 1030. No exaggeration. Winter, you are still a b****. At that point wouldn't it be a good excuse to call off work? I can only imagine what your commute time will be when getting back home.

Today’s visit provided us with some hope that our baby’s vision will improve overtime. The eye specialist did notice he doesn’t track very well when she was shining a few flashing objects around him. We scheduled another appointment for when he’s 4 months old (so in 2 months) and then she’ll be able to get a better idea of where he’ll be at with his vision.

Our baby has a doctor’s appointment this Friday with an eye specialist. His primary doctor noticed something was off when he was using his retinoscope. We’ve also noticed he doesn’t concentrate on mommy and daddy when we try to get his attention. He always seems fascinated at something up on the ceiling but this could be attributed to something going on with his eyes. Least to say, we’re a bit concerned.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Feb 16, 2017 -> 03:20 PM) Congrats! Keep your eyes on your wife until she's done breastfeeding. It's really quite the mental f*** on their end. Your kid will get more fun every day. Oh, and propose to your girlfriend. She's earned it. Thanks Steve. She’s a stay-at-home mom so I gotta give her a lot of credit for keeping sane while I’m at work. As far as marriage – we’re looking at next year. Right now we just want to enjoy this 1st year of being new parents and enjoy our new home since we moved in not too long ago. We have a couple of very good friends also getting married this year so we want 2018 to be our year.

The strong winds we had about a month ago knocked down a huge tree branch so I'll be chopping that up this Saturday and put together a nice bon fire. Weather channel says it'll be about 52 degrees around 7pm that night so that's still tolerable for being outside with a beer in hand and fire on the side.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 16, 2017 -> 01:19 PM) Came here to say congrats and that I'll be joining the club come July, saw rock's post and had the anxiety level tick up a notch again Thank you, sir. I hope to give you some optimism. If the baby is crying non-stop he/she is hungry, needs diaper changed (or will soon), or just wants to be held. If it's none of those, then pray a lot. My gf and I have been very careful about taking him outside. Luckily, this winter has been mild so there have been a few weekends where we've gone out to eat without much of a hassle. If it's too darn cold than we're staying in. Once it gets real nice we plan on taking nice strolls to the lake. The experience has been positive overall.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 16, 2017 -> 01:14 PM) You'll want to shoot yourself in the face for the first year. Stick with it, it gets better. So far it’s only gotten as bad as wanting to close the door to his room while I finish washing dishes but honestly he will not stop crying. I thought “Oh he’ll wear himself out” but it never happens.

On December 22, 2016 my gf and I welcomed into this world a blessing that has changed our lives in a positive way. Since that moment our new role as parents has opened up our eyes to how much beauty there is to life in the small things we take for granted as adults. We read stories about the baby blues, depression, postpartum psychosis, and other emotions parents go through but luckily, so far, it has been a smooth ride. We’re definitely not getting much sleep right now (as the baby is only 1 mo. 3 wks old) but we’ve adjusted to taking naps when we can. Anyone else a new parent or have any stories they would like to share about their experiences with having a newborn at home? I know if we didn’t have the support of our close family and friends we probably wouldn’t have our sanity in place. They have been 110% supportive.

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Dec 31, 2016 -> 12:44 PM) Prometheus is not truly a prequel to the Alien series, but it is not truly part of the Alien series, much like the Hobbit is a prequel to the Lord of the Rings but not a Lord of the Rings movie. It’s part of the Alien franchise. No need to make it confusing. I’m personally not holding my breath on this one or the new Blade Runner. Ridley Scott is a hit-or-miss director, but because of his name alone, he’ll draw-in massive attention to both films.

I dont know why i even bother.

It's too bad Chris Sale may lose by 1 run.

Unbelievable.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 04:32 PM) Would be fitting if this was Qs last game he gets a ND 1 more HR and it'll be that way.

Tim Anderson doing what he's done best. Get on base.

I wasn't going to watch the Home Run Derby but now I will. I know a lot of White Sox fans here won't admit the same.

I'll be at the game today. First one of the season and hoping the offense shows up for Quintana.
