Bumble App Mishap, Husband Not Amused

When I was pregnant and before we knew the baby's sex, we started calling her "Bumble" (we still do).

When I was probably 4-5 months pregnant, I stumbled upon the Bumble dating app. I didn't really know what it was but fell madly in love with the fact that the app is called Bumble, so I downloaded it. As I was setting up my profile, I started to understand that it's a dating app. So I thought I'd have some fun with it, be honest and see if anyone seemed interested. I included the following facts: I was pregnant, engaged and in the midst of wedding planning. I thought I was so funny; then I realized that men couldn't contact me using the Bumble app. I could only reach out to them. So the fun was over - I wouldn't be able to see how many men would still be interested in a pregnant bridezilla. I closed the account and moved on with my day.

I only told you that story so I could now tell you this story:

A few days after Halloween, a girlfriend and I were catching up on the phone. She became serious and asked me if I knew about the Bumble app. I told her that I did and shared some of the story about my brief stint on Bumble. She was so relieved and shared with me that she had been at a Halloween party and a single male friend mentioned he saw me listed on the app. He thought I might have been creepin' behind my hubby's back...

Apparently, I didn't close the account and still have an active Bumble profile. I have long since changed my email address and so now can't log on to make any changes or deactivate the account.

I thought this was hilarious. I am not the cheating type, and I'm obsessed with my husband. I'd also completely forgotten about my Bumble profile until I heard about this. So I had to tell my husband all about it. When I did, all he heard was that I had signed up for a dating app. He was not amused.

Whoops!

Participation Trophy Woes

The image is taken from this article . I'm a millennial, but an older one. I was born in 1984 which I believe is the beginning point of the millennial generation. I want to talk about a specific aspect of growing up millennial: participation trophies. These were somewhat regular in my childhood. Although they were not always guaranteed, they were around enough to matter in critical times during my development. I had some participation trophies, while I also had some other earned trophies. However, those participation trophies had an impact on the "earned" trophies. For me getting participation trophies taught me to devalue all trophies. When I was a junior or senior in high school, my mom found several awards I'd won shoved in a drawer in my bedroom. One such trophy was a writing award, another was my "Rookie of the Year" plaque I'd earned for diving into the Youth & Government program gung-ho even though it was my first year. I'd just jo...

Deplin

Some may be surprised that I decided to write about this. It's personal stuff. But after a lot of thought, I decided to share anyway because I found something really beneficial to my health. Anyone who knows me really well knows that I have struggled with anxiety and depression at different times throughout my life. Anyone who sort of knows me has probably heard me talk about this and been surprised. You may fall into that second category now. I'm naturally a fairly nervous person. What may seem very small and insignificant things to some can send me into a tailspin. I may worry over a mistake on a work project or something stupid I said at a party for weeks after the incident. I get stomach aches when this happens. I give just as much attention to worrying about the future as I do the past, and it results in even more stomach aches. In my late twenties, I was pretty sick of feeling sick to my stomach from all this worrying all the time. So I started seeing a therapis...
