I thought Valentine's was yesterday so I wore 'homewrecker' shirt. It's THE PERFECT SHIRT for Valentine's. Now I'm gonna wear it a for a full week to make up for this mistake.
i really want to get one of those shirts and wear it when seeing a client just to see his reaction }:D

I love wearing it out and about and see all kinds of non-verbal reaction on peoples' faces. You know it solicited a lot of attached men curiosity and desires ;D
Wives better put their husbands on a tight leash.

I can't believe there's no more rolls of toilet paper left. How the fuck did I not notice this? I was JUST out on the bus earlier, and I was right near a Walgreens. Wish I had known. And it's just ME here (My son's been back at his college dorm for two weeks now), so it's not like I can blame it on my son. Lol. Damn, I must've had a lot of my mind to not even notice there's no more Scott toilet paper in the hallway closet.

Your post made me think that sex is kind of like drugs, where if you're just sort of not that into it, people who are REALLY into it will tell you that you've just been doing it wrong. But it's like, okay, even if we pretend that's true, then how many "eh" experiences or bad experiences do you have to put up with before it's a great time? I'm not that committed. Let's all just grab our vibrators and have a great time every time.

I was alone on Valentine's Day.
Celibacy has its benefits, but I must admit that I had a tinge of FOMO.
That is until......I was watching a live stream of a bar in St Augustine, Fl.
The patio was filled with couples eating dinner.
Not one of them was looking at each other. They were ALL on their phones, or not talking, looking bored.
Yet, at some point they positioned themselves to raise their glasses and snap a photo of how much fun they're having.
Lol!
My FOMO dissipated at that moment.

The benefits of being celibate are endless. I've always been asexual so celibacy is perfect for me. I've been celibate for YEARS and love to stay that way.
I love being alone, I don't feel lonely or missing out. I always needed company in my 20s, 30s but it's so different now in my 40's. I want to be left alone.
Having company is an option and not a necessity.
I have no FOMO because I am blessed. I am loved. I am well fed. I am cared for.

"Ditto".
Wait until you get into your 60's. I'm sure you're going to love it here too.
Life is sweeter when you live it on your terms, and there's nobody quacking in your ear to please them, or even listen to them.
My tolerance for b.s. is low, and everyone knows it, thus they leave me alone.
My random thought is that I put my crystals outside to get a full moon bath to cleanse them.
As per my first paragraph, nobody is here in my home to tell me that I can't. Lol

^ I mean, we all still die alone anyway. One can't save the other from death and vice versa. Or tell your mom you are getting a pet or even a plant! My spider plant is very forgiving when I forget to water it, never talks about sex, and we don't ever argue about finances, where we live, etc.
Also, tell mom settle down doesn't mean settling for raising Bertha's kids.

I'm starting to get why Anna Nicole Smith went and married that old man. Little/No Sex, that man was hanging on to life by a thread, he was a companion, and had money. She struck gold. Maybe we all should be searching for our true love in high end retirement facilities. LOLLLLL.
At least he got to enjoy his last days with a beautiful woman who showed him attention. I remember going to convalescent homes when I was in choir in elementary school and damn they looked depressing and boring.

BAHAHAHA I said this to my husband the other day! I said I would only get married again if it was an old man who didn't really want sex, just a companion, and would provide for me. Sign me up! If I recall, he was very generous, provided for her and her son, and just wanted her company (more or less).

Not sure what it is about a homewrecker that excites men so much. They will go home and jerk off to the idea. Not sure why it stirs up so many feelings either. I'm highly enjoy wearing my 'homewrecker' shirt so much. Only got one in black but I'll have to order a couple more in different colors so one doesn't get worn out fast.

Random thought:
I wish I was a billionaire so I could start weird businesses I would like to go to myself just because I can. I'd make a zen restaurant that plays healing music (like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWLVBP3VrO4), clean/organic food, extremely dim lighting, candles all around, aromatherapy spray every few hours, has a massive rock waterfall inside, no chairs you sit on the floor on a pillow with an elevated table for food, and then the upstairs would be a room for massages. LOLLL and no children allowed so it's more of a calming escape from the real world.

Reminds me of a blind date I went on once (friend insisted on fixing me up).
We went to a Chinese restaurant and he said he had never eaten Chinese food before. We ordered a meal that offered variety so that he could try different things and see what he liked.
When they brought the finger bowls with lemon floating on top, he thought it was soup and ate it. I just didn't have the heart to tell him.
Afterwards, I asked how he had enjoyed the food and he said it was all good except for the soup...that it didn't have much flavor! LOL

My mom tried to say if I didn’t “settle down” then I’d die alone.
I know this one all too well. Being unwed and without children at 31 is unheard of with the upbringing I had. “What happened with ******?” (this boy she thought I’d end up marrying and seems to have her heart set on it). She got upset with me because I told her (with this first line spoken in English), “Assumption is the mother of all fuckups. You thought I had feelings for him when I didn’t, I simply tolerated him because he was more bearable than the other community boys”.
That little brat ass who lived across the street (and sorta does still… he’s in college now) likens me to Hitler after hearing me on the phone with my mother in Plautdietsch, I wish he could’ve heard my mother after I said that to her. When I piss my mother off, I make sure I do it good.
The woman they hired as a small engine equipment tech has been staying with me all week, because they have a black mold problem in her building. Before she told me what it was, I assumed her roommate had done something dumb. Last time I I was there, the roommate went to do dishes, but they were out of dish soap, so she put Dawn in there. I went over there and there were suds up to my knees. The other woman in the shop (let’s call her C to avoid confusion) offered to let her (the small engine tech, we’ll call her W) stay there, but once W realized they only had one bed and she’d be sharing it with C and her wife, W got paranoid and asked to if she could stay with me, instead. We were talking last night, and her OnlyFans came up. I was curious to see what it was about, so I subscribed. I was a little disappointed… I thought she’d be one of these sorts who outwardly seemed demure but was actually a real freak between the sheets. It was all pretty vanilla masturbation videos. A couple where she humps a pillow (which I’ve never done it that way myself), and one where she had some kind of remote control toy and gave someone access to control it for a price. She’s getting all flustered at me watching these videos thinking I’m judging her, so I had to tell her, “No, relax. I worked as a stripper on the side for seven years”. Anyhow, this shouldn’t be taken as me talking shit about how she handles her business… I’m perhaps even more vanilla with how I handle mine.

It’s done. My last day at the tow company. Really wish that Karen hadn’t put her hands on me. I’m going to try enjoying my days off… I make plenty of money at my regular job that I don’t actually have to work a second one, plus my disability from the VA on top of that. But I’m too antsy. Idle hands and all. It’s hard to let go, because towing is something I just really love doing.
And W (the small engine tech) has been subtly hinting at an arrangement that would let her stay here. All or most of the building she lives in now has to be gutted, apparently. I don’t know. She seems to fit in alright. She’s my coworker though. I mean, technically so is the Irish woman, but not quite to the same extent. We could carpool to work. There’s that.

Soap for machines - dishwashers, floor scrubbing machines, etc. - is formulated not to bubble and create suds. That’s why I constantly have to tell newer techs at work not to use the soap for our floor scrubber when they’re spraying tires, air brake components, etc. for leaks because it won’t bubble up the way dish soap and water will. Dawn, Joy, Palmolive, etc. aren’t meant to be put into machines, and you get an overflow of suds when you do that. My sister almost made the same mistake here, but I caught it before she could put it in the dishwasher. We didn’t have one growing up - everything was washed by hand. S’s roommate… I feel bad saying this, because I actually do like her, but she’s a bit of a ditz. Very book smart. She has a PhD. Not so much when it comes to common sense things. The suds incident was my first time meeting her.
A couple weeks back, I was doing a lockout service at a mall, where someone had locked their keys in the trunk. It was an early 00s Mercedes sedan, and the trunk release for those uses an air pump to open it, so you can get around it either by figuring out where to jump power across a relay socket or by disconnecting an air hose if you have a compressor (which the truck I was in had air brakes), then you can just supply air to it. My truck was blocking her car snd I told her I needed about 30 seconds. She tried to grab me to get me away from where I was (the fuse panel and air pump were under the floor by the rear seat on the passenger side), and tried telling me I needed to move right away, so I pushed her hand away and told her not to touch me. Got the trunk open, I was putting everything away, and she comes over, puts her hand on my shoulder and tells me I’m moving too slow, so I pushed her hand away and reminded her not to touch me. She got real aggressive at this point, grabbed my arm, and I think she knew she fucked up at that point… I’m athletic and very much in shape and she had to have realized it once she grabbed my arm. I punched her in the face. A friend that was with her freaked out, said she was calling the cops, the member said they’d wait and give a statement on my behalf, but I’m sure they weren’t happy about it, etc.

It makes me sad that you were pushed to that point when all you were trying to do was helping her. People forget that everyone has limits and pushing points.
I don't know how I or anyone would have reacted when put in your situation. I don't think you were the first person she's done this to. I hope she learns to be kind.

J totally had my back just now.
We can across such a silly situation.
He sister invited us ( all of us with daughter too ) to come over and do an activity and stay a night .
Yesterday I wanted to double check that my dog was ok on the rsvp list too ( he checked ) and she gave a response that she preferred no dog.
This is an 8 pound little boy fully trained with PERFECT house training.
He can be left with his bed and bowls in a bathroom while we go out for 5-6 hours too.
:/
Well ..... I didn't know that I was expected to find a sitter for my SUPER EASY little guy and don't have time to arrange a sitter ( to leave today ).
So ..... J quickly took the situation over and is booking a pet friendly hotel . :/

I got a Square card reader so I can accept tips on the DL in the club, and I'm not sure how using it will actually go in practice 🤔 I'm planning on using it for additional tips post champagne room, and scenarios like that. I wonder how many customers would actually feel comfortable doing this. For a small percentage, you can instantly transfer the money to your bank account so I imagine that would make it harder for chargebacks. In any case, the machine was only $10 and the service is free so it's not a big loss if it turns out to be an inconvenience.

^ Oh you'll need to report back. I think it's risky due to that customers being able to take it back but if it enables more SPEED in the club even if some idiot messed with one transaction you might have enough that didn't to make this worth it.
I have been horrified at clubs in the city I work in and the SLOW process of setting up a champagne room.
Hand me the damn machine and I will do it ( quickly ) if you didn't train staff how to quickly and smoothly process the transaction. Please don't let them learn how to work a self explanatory machine on MY time. I'm still salty at this one club over this.

I have Square and Venmore.
I believe with Square you can refund but not sure about chargebacks so please research.
For venmo, there's no refund once someone paid you. There is chargeback but the payer has to do it through their credit card issuers. There's no charge between friends but there is a charge if it's business transactions. You can transfer it to your bank account between 1-3 business days for free or instantly for a small fee.
On venmo, it will ask what the transaction is for, you can't leave it blank. If you accept tips, I would put gift. I don't know how anyone could do chargebacks on gifts? lol
