Hello, I recently graduated with my PhD. My parents and husband attended. The soonest they could arrive was 3pm or so, for a 5.30pm ceremony (you need to queue at 4.45pm). I took photos with all three of them as a group, as well as solo photos. As and when I bumped into friends we took a few photos and said goodbye. I paid for professional solo and family photos, the queue for this was about 45 minutes. Amidst the rushing around, I started my period suddenly, and in the UK we are experiencing a heatwave, paired with the extra layers of the gown and the blisters forming from my heels I was a bit of a diva and we argued a lot that day. I argued with my husband quite a bit too, it was a rough day. Everything was rushed, we didn’t have time for photos after the ceremony as my in laws were waiting for us for dinner and the graduates photo took up some time too. Here’s where I messed up: I didn’t direct towards or make sure I got pictures of me and my husband together, just us two. I didn’...

Just a few days ago I went to an orthodontist to see about getting an orthodontic treatment to fix my teeth, I have had braces in the past but my retainers had broken for a month so they're just the slightest bit crooked. I was more concerned about potentially fixing my uneven jaw which I thought had the potential to be somewhat fixed by the aligners but after confirming with the doctor it was a miscommunication and I would need jaw surgery to alter anything with my jaw, so I wanted to cancel because I didn't care that much about slightly crooked teeth. Especially my insurance is ending at the beginning of next year because it's my parents insurance so they weren't able to pay that much. Fast forward to a couple days later I'm trying to cancel and I knew I was going to lose my $500 deposit which is fine, but apparently they want to charge me almost $1500 for the one appointment I had where they took x-rays and did the Imaging for my aligners. I've had so many ba...

So I went to an interview for a parks and rec program attendant today and I feel horrible. The interview was going well and I had intended on asking some questions to feel out how many people were applying for the same role in hopes to get some information to pass along to my SIL who had expressed interest in applying for the position. Her and my brother are working hard to make ends meet and she’s currently looking for a part time second job. I wanted to help and I don’t even know why but my brain buffered for a second and I let slip that my SIL would be applying for the same role as well. I’m hoping I didn’t ruin my chances or hers. I don’t need the position as much as she does and I’m hoping that if I don’t get it she still has a chance. TL; DR I accidentally may have ruined mine and my SIL’s chances of getting a job

Last night, I took my dog for what was supposed to be a simple walk to my in-laws' house, which is less than two miles away—about a 30-minute walk. For some context, I live in a rural area, so walking along the roads is pretty normal. I left around 9 p.m. while it was still light out, and since the roads were quiet, I decided to take a different route for a change. Unfortunately, while I was talking to my mom on the phone, I missed my turn. My phone died shortly afterward, but I wasn't worried because I thought I was almost there. I was very wrong. I ended up walking nearly four miles down a long country road before realizing something wasn't right. By then, it was completely dark, and nothing looked familiar anymore. I turned around and started retracing my steps, but in the pitch black, I had no idea where I was. My poor dog was getting tired, I was starting to panic, and it had to be well past 10:30 p.m. Eventually, I came across a well-lit house and decided I ha...

I (30M) recently bought a pair of sleeping shorts with a pretty short inseam (which I didn’t realize when I bought them). However they are super comfortable and I live alone so no big deal usually. However, I recently went to visit my longtime female friend at her beach condo and spent the weekend there on the couch. This is where I fucked up. We were getting ready for bed and I had changed into my sleeping shorts (which I always wear commando). I was laying on one side of the L-shaped couch and she was sitting on the other part of it. She randomly looked at my and starts cracking up and say “hey I can see your dick”. I guess the way more shorts sat she could see up one of the sides. I am actually pretty self conscious and made me feel bad. TL;DR my platonic female friend saw my dick

Not today, but sunday. I was cleaning the bathroom sink. I noticed the drain has gunk in it. I had a old bottle brush i wasn't using so i inserted it to the drain. There was a little resistance going in and coming out. After three tries (drain had three holes), (it sounds dirty like this, isn't it?) i checked under the sink to see if there was any water leak. And there was. At first i thought it was a o-ring coming loose. So i tried to fix it. I took the drain out, tighten its nuts and put it back. It still leaked. At that point everything under the sink was being wet, so i took everything out of there. And dried the shelves with towels. I took the drain out again, tighten it again and check for leaks. It didn't leak by itself, so i put it back again. And it leaked again. At that point i gave up on that drain. Went to the hardware store and bought a new drain. Came home, tried to install the new drain. New drain didn't fit the top part of old drain. Went to the hard...
