Today, I had to admit to everyone, including my cable guy, that I'm moving back in with my parents. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, I moved back in with my parents in order to help them with the mortgage, so they don't lose the house that has been in our family for three generations. I also found out that I now have a curfew, and so does my husband and our 3 year old son. FML
Today, after telling my parents just exactly what I thought of them and that I was moving out, the person I was supposed to move in with called to say they'd decided they would rather live alone. FML
Today, after months of telling my parents I was going to live on my own, I finally moved out. Not even 24 hours being out of their house, some reject burned down the apartment complex I live in. Guess who's moving back home. FML
Today, after several long years, a lot of debt, and two great degrees from a top university, I had to move back in with my parents, because no matter where I look, I can't find a job. FML
Today, my landlord informed me that after 8 months, we are finally getting cable and internet in our house. I move out tomorrow. FML
Today, I called my wife to tell her I finally found a job after 6 months. A man answered the phone claiming to be the cable guy. We cut our cable off when I was laid off 6 months ago. FML
Today, I found out that the day I moved out of my parents' house, they invited my whole family over and had a party to celebrate the fact that I was gone. FML
Today, I moved back home because I got laid off and could no longer afford my apartment. I decided to take a nap and when I woke up I overheard my Mom telling my Aunt that she used to be so proud of me and wonders when I became such a loser. Burn. FML
Today, I'm being evicted from my apartment for not paying rent. My father is the on-site landlord, meaning I now have to move my stuff downstairs into his place, and hear every day how I'm a failure. FML
The cable guy
Today, the cable repairman came to fix my cable, which has never worked well. The entire time he was talking about how much extra money he got the "fat bitch who moved here 6 months ago" to pay for her cable. I moved in 6 months ago. I was pregnant. FML

It's okay to have money problems.My sister moved back in with my parents after traveling the world and going to college because she is now $100,000 in debt and needs to start paying it off. It happens.

I do and don't agree with you. In most cases, keeping cable when you're strapped is a bad idea, yet there are exceptions. I've got physical problems, so I can't work outside the home. When we were broke, we still paid for cable Internet because I used it for freelance design jobs I did from home, and my DH used it to find extra gig work. Adding cable to the package wasn't very expensive, and watching movies, documentaries, etc. was cheaper than other hobbies when I was stuck in bed. It was also kind of job-related, since we were in the filmmaking industry at the time. We sacrificed a lot of other things to keep it, though, and ate plenty of pasta and Ramen. Overspending was never really our problem; unavoidable medical expenses were. :-/

29: If the mods were dead-set against picture comments, they'd either delete them all or remove the dp option.

We shouldn't write comments about someone's picture. ...

Ignorance, you should put a picture of your cat up again

Freeze: Judging by this thread, I guess you're right. I should've clarified that I meant the occasional pic comment is OK; there were only a few made here before my post. However, because it does get out of hand so easily— ex. the ones after my comment here— it's probably better to have a "no pic comments" policy in general.
