I just giggled and giggled. Neither of these fit inside the (old Tito's and Dolin) bottles. This is somehow one of the most vexing issues behind the bar for me. Soap and water alone doesn't get the oil and particulates off the inside of the juice bottles. You really have to have something abrasive. Kosher salt is somewhat effective but nothing works better than a (properly sized) bottle brush. How do y'all clean your bottles? Shame on all of you who just run them through the dishwasher! submitted by /u/pastiness to r/bartenders [link] [comments]

I am not The OOP, OOP is u/doctormcpuffy My husband (32M) is insisting that "we" impregnate his friend after finding I (32F) am unable to conceive TRIGGER WARNING: Stillbirth, infertility shaming, emotional infidelity Original Post Nov 23, 2015 I am honestly in a bit of shock after everything that has transpired in the past 24 hours and need some unbiased opinions to get me through. A little background, my SO and I have been married for four years and together for seven. He is a civil engineer who is more so ambivalent to his career, his real passion lies in his hobbies, our relationship, and his friends. I am an emergency medicine doctor and this is my passion. I love my husband, my friends, and I have hobbies but my work is my absolute passion. Becoming a doctor was my dream since I was 12 and I have made it a reality. Now my issue, about 14 months ago my husband was pushing me to get pregnant, he wanted a baby. I honestly did not, I was finally hitting my stride at work, we just bought our first condo together, and weren't living a really friendly kid life. I did not tell him this, mostly because I was a coward and we had never really disagreed before, so I kept my mouth shut and decided it wouldn't be a huge sacrifice to have a baby. I could make it work. We got pregnant. I was miserable, pregnancy did not suit me and I wanted it to be over. I felt disconnected from everything, especially my pregnancy, and sought out therapy. My therapist told me that I was holding resentment against this baby as I was in a great spot in my career and was more worried about that then my unborn child. She was right. I worked on this and towards month six I was really excited to have this baby. My husband and I were in a better place (my resentment and attitude really hurt our relationship during this time). Everything was going well, until it wasn't. Around seven months in our baby was born as a stillbirth and I had some horrible complications which have caused my chances at ever getting pregnant at an incredibly low percent. I know that I am never getting pregnant. After the initial shock, recovering from the physical trauma and the emotional trauma, I won't lie but I felt relieved. Massive relief. I didn't want to be a mother then, and I will down the road but I am a firm believer that this was just not meant to be. My husband took this harder, but with some therapy on both our ends. We seemed to be in a good spot...until last night. Last night my husband approached me, he said that he really wants us to have a kid and "forgives" me for losing our son. He knows that I cannot conceive, but reminded me that he is more than capable. I had to remind him that we have no options, if we want a baby then we need to look into adoption or getting donated eggs and going the surrogacy route, and right now we aren't in a financial position for either. Then he asked what if there was another way? Naturally I asked, what? He told me that there was a woman at work that he has known for several years, apparently she knows about ALL of our marital problems and knows ALL about my health issues over the past year. He said that they recently went to drinks together (I was on an overnight shift) and after a few drinks she offered to not only donate eggs, but to be our surrogate. This seems too good to be true right? Yep. She will ONLY do this if my husband impregnates her the natural way. Having sex with her during her ovulation period until she gets pregnant. I was baffled by this. First, he was considering it and seemed genuinely excited for this. Second, that this woman would offer such a thing without ever having met me. And finally, that he had shared such intimate details with her. He said that he then followed up with her when they were both sober via text and she responded "Oh, I would love to have your baby!" This seems odd to me and I question the mental stability of this woman. But then my husbands entire demeanor shocks me. I told him I wasn't sure about this, if we go the surrogate route I would prefer it be all anonymous and our surrogate be a stranger. I don't want this getting messy or having to worry about running into the egg donor. Instead of seeing the validity of my opinions he told me that having a baby with him was non-negotiable. That this "friend" wants to help us, he wouldn't mind doing it her way, and it would be the most cost efficient since we just discussed how cannot afford it at this time. He told me that if I love him and want a baby, then I will do this for him. I tried to explain to him that I am not sure if I am ready for this, and that I don't know if I am comfortable with all of this. Especially with him sleeping with someone else. He brushed that off, telling me that it is "no big deal" if he were to sleep with her and that I am overreacting. That he has stood by while I got my dream and he was left alone/ignored (I never knew he felt this way) and that I owed it to him to let him do this. Today I looked up this woman on Facebook, and she is VERY attractive. I would say that my husband and I are both average looking but she is definitely striking, which makes my anxiety go even higher. Why do this for us? I don't get what she gets out of this. Am I overreacting? This seems completely bizarre for me and I am questioning everything in our relationship, what should I do? tl;dr: Lost our baby last year, husband wants to knock up some work friend since I can no longer conceive, making me feel guilty because I think it is weird. RELEVANT COMMENTS When asked if the friend isn't already pregnant I don't think she is. He told me that they mapped out her cycles (and insinuated that I could help figure out when is best for her) and that we could aim for a January insemination date so that we could have a fall baby. There is no way that if she is already pregnant (assuming 6+ weeks) that they could fool me with a fall baby. Update Nov 29, 2015 (6 days later) Thank you to everyone who commented on my last post and to those who PM’d me. This is long. I spoke with my husband on Tuesday after he got home from work and before I had to leave for work. I explained to him that even though I do want kids down the road, I would not be comfortable with his friend being our surrogate and that this would not change for me, ever. All of it made me uncomfortable and honestly made me question his fidelity. He was shocked by this. His exact words were “Are you saying that I cheated on you?” I laid it out for him, pointing out a lot of things that were pointed out to me from my OP and stated that even if he hadn’t yet physically cheated that he emotionally cheated. He said that he did have an emotional connection with her, but beyond that nothing else. I asked him if they had sex, kissing, anything sexual at all? He was baffled that I would even think this and adamant he did not have any sexual contact with her. He reiterated that he loves me and I am the only one he wants. The whole idea of this was because he wanted to give us a family and help “repair” the loss, this was just a way to do that and he never saw it as cheating because it would be something we would both agree to. I told him that isn't true because he emotionally manipulated me, or tried to, into going along with it. I told him I needed to know what their relationship was like. He admitted that over the past year, even while I was pregnant, he confided in her about my obvious lack of interest in the pregnancy, my disdain towards motherhood, his fear of me hating our baby, and the issues that persisted in our relationship. Apparently she was shocked that I would feel this way towards a baby, she told him that she has only ever wanted to be a mother. Since then they have only gotten closer, but he denies it has ever gotten physical or that he felt any romantic inclinations towards her. He said that the surrogacy was completely her idea and she has been hinting at it for weeks. Telling him how she would carry our baby for us, how he deserves to be a dad, but he informed her that we did not have any frozen eggs so our options were egg donation or adoption, which we couldn’t afford. No problem, she suggested to use her eggs. Which is how the plan took shape. He said that they could do artificial insemination but she said she didn’t want medical records of this, and natural insemination would keep costs down. I asked him what the fuck was he thinking talking to her about stuff like this and thinking that this was okay?! He looked like a deer caught in the headlights. I asked him how he would feel if I did this? If he was the infertile one and I had an attractive doctor friend knock me up with no strings attached at HIS suggestion, how would he feel? He had nothing to say to this. I told him that I felt absolutely betrayed by all of this. Clearly she has some sort of mental health problems and an unhealthy attachment to my husband but beyond that his relationship with her is inappropriate. He said “obviously I shared too much.” No shit. I told him that I am upset that he “forgave” me for the loss of our baby which I had no control over and that he used that to emotionally manipulate me. He apologized for that, he never meant it to come out like that and in no way blames me. After that everything calmed down but I told him I needed some space from him for a bit. He asked if our marriage was over? I told him I didn’t think so, but this has been a really emotionally turbulent few days and I need to process it. He told me that he does not want our marriage to be over if this was something I was considering, he loves me more than anything and cannot bear to lose me over this. That losing our baby was devastating and has made him depressed, confused, and angry but he does not want to lose me at all. I told him he should have thought about that before planning to stick his dick in crazy (not my finest moment). I told him that if he wants to keep open communication, he needs to cut ties with her, obviously he works with her but nothing beyond whatever work contact they have to have, he needs to go to individual counseling and come to at least one counseling session with me per week. Before he left he changed his phone number, blocked her on Facebook and deactivated it. Told me that he would give me access to whatever I wanted to see that the “relationship” is severed and that it was nothing more than what he has told me. His parting words were "I just wanted to build a family with you" which absolutely gutted me. Wednesday afternoon I checked his email, there wasnothing. Nothing in the deleted bin or recover deleted items bin in Outlook. Facebook was hard to look at, there were a lot of chat messages between the two of them spanning the last eight months when he added her on Facebook. Overall his messages were friendly, a few times he was flirty but never sexual or what I what consider too much for what should be friends, but hers were pretty clear in her meaning. The messages are clear, she's making some kind of play for him. I took screen shots of all the conversations (don't worry I triple checked for any deleted messages, hidden apps, or other messaging services) and re-deactivated his Facebook. I have his iPad so I was able to look at the iMessages on there, they appear to delete every 30 days which left me with that to look at. Overall all the texts and chats line up with his story, but the whole exchange about the logistics make me sick. She talks about making the baby as though it's a date, that she doesn't want it to be sterile or feel like she's being used. Her comments were inappropriate but he never stopped her or corrected her. She even insulted me several times when he expressed concern about how I would feel, saying things like "she's cold hearted" and "maybe you should just do this on your own so you don't have to worry about her rejecting the baby," he didn't really stand up for me but said that he didn't think I would do that. It was all very hard to read but I feel better about my decision overall. We didn’t really speak on Wednesday, he checked in a few times but I let him know that we would talk Thursday. Thursday morning he let me know that he turned in his letter of resignation Wednesday morning. He hasn’t heard from her but doesn’t intend to seek her out to say goodbye either. He apologized, he just thought he was doing the right thing and thought this would make me happy. I still feel extremely betrayed, he is still dealing with the loss and other things. We both agreed that our communication has really deteriorated in the past year and that we need to fix this. So, no lawyer, no gym, just therapy for us. tl;dr: Confronted my husband,got the real story, and now we are going to work on things. FINAL COMMENTS [deleted] Jeeeez. I still don't think he understands exactly how bad he messed up, but hopefully he realizes it in therapy. I read your last post, and I'm really surprised he was willing to do all the "right" things ro fix this. If he really is that committed to working things out, there might be hope, and I'm glad you are giving it a try. Even if he doesn't understand the depth of betrayal against you, hopefully he understands how wrong it was to do everything he did and said. Hopefully you can come to some sort of agreement and peace about your future. Best of luck to both of you. OOP I think he talked about it with his brother who was probably like "bro this is absolutely the worst idea you have ever had and she is probably going to drop some divorce documents on you immediately" because when we did talk he mentioned that he thought about this a lot and realized how awful it all sounded after he left. When we spoke Thursday (and in the days since) he seems more aware of how bad this was on his side. ~ MissTheWire OP, I'm so glad he realized the error of his ways regarding this woman and he's doing very concrete things to make this right, but it feels like the bottom line was that he pushed you into having children before you were ready. Is that from severe baby-fever or self-absorption? I guess I'm wondering if his basically ignoring your career dreams/reproductive timetable, blaming your miscarriage on your attitude and then ignoring this woman's obvious scheming have a common root that he needs to work on in therapy. OOP The first time? I think he had baby fever, his two closest friends just became dads and I theorize that he felt left out. We were a "good" age for having kids, good careers, and working on financial stability. It seemed right to him. I wasn't ready, didn't feel that we were ready financially (just bought a condo, owe $$$ in student loans that I want to pay down as much as possible before kids, want to travel a bit) to take on a baby. But I didn't tell that to him which I think is where a lot of our problems started. He didn't ignore me, I didn't speak up. He has always been super supportive of my career, but I guess feels that a lot I put it in front of him. And he wouldn't be wrong, this is something I need to work on because going to work for two days and questioning if my marriage was going to survive made me realize that work is not above my marriage. We clarified a bit on the attitude. He doesn't really blame me, but it was easy to direct his anger at someone rather than just have it bottle up. We need to work on this. ~ IncredibleBulk2 Consider adoption? OOP In a few years, maybe. Either that or getting an egg donor and doing the surrogate thing. I want kids and it's completely possible for us to have multiple but I'm just not ready.

A little while ago I quit drinking and started painting. I'm not sure why. I have little to no exposure to D and D but something about it kept my interest. So here we are. 2 months into sobriety and this is what I'm managed to come up with in my spare time. Primarily made out of scrap Styrofoam lol. Not really looking for praise or critique just felt like showing you I guess. Looking at it all I'm not really sure how to feel about it but there it is. submitted by /u/OkRecommendation8333 to r/DungeonsAndDragons [link] [comments]

I only have four days to make a decision. I have been going back and forth trying to decide if I should cancel my husbands birthday reservations I made for him at this really cool indoor golf place followed by reservations for dinner. He's always commented on wanting to try both and I thought it would make a nice gift. His birthday is only a few days after mine. For Christmas he legit took the time to buy and wrap me a box of diapers for our daughter in the next size up and presented it to me as my gift. I'm still angry about that. No, gag gifts for Christmas has never been a thing between us. Last year he got me a spatula and I thought this year he would do better after the falling out we had over the spatula. A little bit of Background info: Our daughter is now two months old and we have been working on replacing the floor and painting our home since before she was born with the goal of having it done before she can crawl. Over the summer he did the nursery floor and in the fall, a week before she was born, he did the flooring in our older son's room. Mind you, the flooring was given to us for free from my dad, and my dad bought my husband his own miter saw for Christmas to get the job done so we would no longer have to borrow his. I do all the painting. This past week as we have been clearing things out of our bedroom for me to do the painting and him the flooring he brought up my birthday. He said, "wow, all this work for your birthday gift." I said "Excuse me, what gift? He said "All the work of putting the flooring in our bedroom, but don't worry I'll still do a dinner for you and we can invite your mom and my family, what do you want me to cook?" I said "I would like to just have a quiet birthday dinner, you, me and the kids at Longhorn Steak House, come home and watch a movie together. Also, the flooring is not my gift. This is something we've been planning now for a year. And with the house torn up, I don't want to host anyone in our home especially after having hosted for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Besides we don't even have a place for people to sit. We have all the bedroom furniture, and our clothing in the living room. I'm currently sleeping on the mattress on the floor in here. Plus, I'm not a fan of your brother coming over so you two can sit and just drink beer all evening while I watch our and his kids." He said no, I'm going to cook at home, just tell me what you want me to cook. I said "Ok, I want to do steak, mashed potatoes, and green beans." (But there is a problem here, he can't make mashed potatoes to save his life and only likes green beans if their boiled. I like fresh green beans slowly sautéed with olive oil, garlic and herbs. So if I want it cooked this way, I will have to do it.) He said "no, we're not doing steak, it will cost to much if the family comes over. I'll just do a chicken." I lost it. I said again, "For MY birthday... I DO NOT want people over." He kept arguing the issue and I said "fine, do what you want for my birthday." Side note: Last year, he ordered the traditional tres leches cake but he ordered it with peaches. I hate peaches, he likes peaches. I like strawberries. Plus, my name was spelled wrong on the birthday cake, he thought it was hilarious. I am now seriously considering cancelling his b-day golf outing & dinner reservations, leaving home if he invites his family for my birthday, buying him a box of diaper wipes and presenting it with a card that says "Happy birthday. I painted the house for you." Would I be the Asshole? Update: Birthday plans: I have since logged in and cancelled his birthday golf outing and dinner reservations for next week. Tomorrow is my birthday and his day off work so he will be watching baby as I have also booked myself for a 90 minute massage. After that I will be stopping by Starbuck for my favorite drink and one hour of un-interrupted time with my new book that my son got me for Christmas. Then I will be picking him up from school and taking him to go see a movie. I will round off the day by coming home, taking a long hot bubble bath, ordering DoorDash and ending my day holding baby girl. That sounds like an amazing birthday to me. For him, I will just be getting him a card that reads "Happy Birthday, I painted the house for you." The bag will contain a case of diaper wipes. If he looks disappointed, I will just tell him "I cancelled the Golf outing and dinner reservations and instead go this bulk pack of wipes; the perfect gift to accompany the box of diapers you got me for Christmas." He will get the message. Divorce: As for the people advocating for divorce, kicking him to the curb, leaving with the kids in the middle of the night, claiming that he isn't a good husband to me and father to our baby, please know that you only got one little glimpse into our life. He is a loving and caring father to our children. We struggled with infertility for a very long time so this baby was a surprise but a welcomed blessing. Every day I prayed to not miscarry and even feared death during labor as my pregnancy was high-risk. He took a month off of work to care for me as I recovered from 3 degree tearing and a bruised tailbone. Every night he does the night time routine: Bath, pajamas, story time, and rocks baby girl to sleep. While he does that, I do the house reset: dishes, garbage, sweep. He wakes with me for all her feedings and prioritizes my sleep over his to make sure that I am rested enough to care for our daughter during the day. This is the same man who, during pregnancy, cooked me breakfast every morning and massaged my feet every night. Before he leaves for work every day he will make sure I have time to self-care (shower, brush my teeth, eat breakfast, and pump) before handing me the baby (if she's awake). Then he will make sure I am happy on the couch with baby girl and anything I could need before he leaves-blanket, remote, water cup, my phone, phone charger, a clean binky and bottle for baby. As soon as he get's home from work, he will take her and give me 30 minutes to myself before we start talking dinner plans. We make a good team when it comes to daily life. I don't have to make him lists of things to do. I like that when were low on milk, he will just pick it up on his way home without having to be asked and he doesn't wait for a "thank you" like he did me some big favor the way I have seen other men seek gratitude for doing basic tasks. He sucks at gift giving and this year and last year, so yes! I will be doing nothing for him for his birthday. Despite the shitty thoughtless gift and non-birthday birthday plans, I will be holding off on kicking him out and just matching his energy for his birthday. For Christmas 2026, I think I will get him an IKEA toddler bed to assemble for our daughter and call it a day. Birthday update: Yesterday was my birthday. Hubby surprised me with breakfast out at my favorite local spot and we did a Home Depot run for more flooring. After that, I did go for my massage, It was wonderful, and I did stop at Starbuck for my free birthday drink. I didn't have time to sit and read before I had to pick my boy from school, but that's ok. Instead of going to see a movie at the theater we came home and began a Harry Potter Movie marathon. I LOVE Harry Potter. However, my son, without my knowing, had texted my dad and my best friend to come over and surprise me with a visit. He didn't know that I had already had my best friend and her niece scheduled to come over to look through a pile of clothes before I took a large haul to donate at the Salvation Army. It was so much fun watching her niece try on dresses. We wrapped up the night with some pizza and cheesy bread. Hubby surprised me with a little gift: two new books, a pack of my favorite cookies, and a squishy niffler that I can add to my Harry Potter book shelf. Overall, I had a great day. :) submitted by /u/Funny_Leather_5540 to r/AITAH [link] [comments]
