Friday Random Vents & Confessions

Andy's stupid dog just ate my fabulous muffin from Starbucks, wrapper and all. He doesn't even care that I yelled at him, he's just chasing his tale like I bought that muffin for him. Now he's licking the floor where he ate it, he's just rubbing my nose in it.
 
I've had a bad headache for over 2 weeks now and I don't want to go hang out with 2nd graders today. Even if it's only for 3 hours, they are too loud for me today. I wish I wouldn't have signed up for this sub position today.

Re: Friday Random Vents & Confessions

  • Vent:  DH bugs the ever-living c**p out of me sometimes.  Last night I was exhausted from the day at work and Connor is obviously not feeling well yet DH decided that we had to go to the grocery and when Connor started scting up and screaming I told him that we had to leave but he just gave me the keys, told me that I could wait in the car with Connor and he would finish up.  About 20 minutes later we were finally heading home because he had to sit there and go through his coupons just so he could save $0.25 on a box a cereal.

    Confession: I am planning on putting my foot down and buying a new camera next week when we get our federal refund even though DH told me that he wants to use the whole thing to pay on bills.  Seriously, a camera with a 3-second lag doesn't work well with a toddler!
  • DH and I decided that for our vacation this summer we're going to go camping in Washington state.  His brother lives out there so we're also going to take a few days to visit his brother.  My confession is that I really don't like DH's brother because he's an immature little boy (even though he's 30) and whenever they get together DH acts like a tool.
  • I'm so fed up with men. Why are they so stupid??? I mean seriously, I should become a lesbian. I'd probably have better luck in the dating pool!!!!

    I confess that I ate a piece of chocolate today. I shouldn't have, but dang it, I'm feeling needy! LOL

  • My Vent: I thought I really did well in my last Chinese session, but I just looked at my grades and got the exact same grade as the sessions where I felt like I underperformed! Seriously, is there no differentiation? I don't mind harsh grading, and I don't mind getting a poor grade if I deserve it, but if I performed better, I should get a better grade. Frumpf.

    My Confession: I did not get any work done yesterday because I was watching Law and Order reruns and nesting.
  • My vent: I hate my f*cking job!!!!! I can't stand anyone who I work with. They are a bunch of kiss a$$es and the second you walk away out of their peripheral vision they start talking sh*t. Im the youngest one in the group and I have better self composure then all of them and they all are 40+. Give me a break and grow up!!!!

    **wow..thank you for letting me get that off my chest..by the way, I put my 2 weeks in. My last day is Feb. 22nd. Thank God!**

    Confession: I've been working hard at the gym...I think I deserve Wendy's for lunch ;)
  • Confession(s):  I'm home with DS today (who is fighting a fever off an on of over 101 but the pedi wants to wait until he has it for 48 before he sees him) and I'm glad that I'm not at work.  I needed a break.

    I weigh 10 pounds LESS than my pre-pg weight.  I'm also 2 sizes smaller than my pre-pg size. 

    Ethan is watching a baby einstein video b/c the bright lights and colors calm him.  I'm not condoning TV watching in babies, but good LORD is he fussy today.

  • Vent:  DH is so great about things I ask him to do most of the time, but I've been asking him to take care of something for two weeks now, and the deadline for him to do so is next Wednesday.  I am SO sick of bugging him about doing it, so it's probably not going to get done, and his name is the only one on the account, so I can't do anything about it.  I wanted to scream this am!  LOL!  On a second vent, I have a condo for sale that I (at the very minimum) would love to have some calls and some potential buyers walk-through it!  Is that too much to ask??  Ok, done...

    Confession:  I've only been to the gym once since we've been back from Mexico and have managed to eat an entire bag of snickers mini's myself this week!  NOT good!  Ah well, if I gain a few lbs, maybe it'll be motivation! 

  • Vent: People who drive 60 in my 25 mph neighborhood make me MAD. And a MAD Rooette is not a happy one. Confession: After the Super Bowl was over, DH and I stuffed 100 mailboxes with fliers about speeding. HA! But people still speed, they must not care.
  • Vent: Ruby is 3 1/2 and STILL doesn't sleep through the night. I realize it's just her personality but jeez hon, give me a break. Your baby sister sleeps WAAAAAY better than you.

    Confession: I really should stop drinking pop but I need that one little pepsi a day.

  • Vent & Confession:  I'm frustrated with DH for being sick.  It's not at all his fault!  He's been sick since last Friday and he ALWAYS gets sick for awhile when he does get sick.  I've been trying to avoid it--drinking lots of Airborne, getting lots of sleep, keeping a distance....and I'm tired of it!  I want him to stop coughing and everything so I can stop worrying about getting it myself!!!  *sigh*  Thanks.  It's not his fault, so I could never complain to him about it....

  • Vent: I am tired of always trying to perform in front of a friend's wife.  It is getting so bad that I am just going to BLOW.  I feel like everything I do just makes her mad and she gets an attitude.  She just needs to lighten up all around! 
    Confession: I haven't been to the gym all week, even though I told people I had.
  • Vent: can't thing of anything major to complain about... so glad i'm over being sick

    oh wait one came to me people who drive slow in the fast lane, and hold up traffic.. UGH

    Confessions: due to being sick i haven't been to the gym all week.. SHAME on me!

    due to getting a new job which starts monday i have been super disengaged from my current one... and I think they are gonna crash and burn a little.. but i don't feel true guilt about it.

  • Vent:  DH has been sick for a week and a half now.  I finally forced him to go to urgent care, because he couldn't get in with our doctor in Columbus around his teaching schedule.  Seriously, you have asthma.... why do you wait until it settles into your chest to seek treatment??  He spent 30 minutes on a breathing machinem, before being sent home with 3 prescriptions.  And he already feels better.

    Confession:  DH has been sleeping in the spare bedroom, because I'm a light sleeper and his coughing would keep me up.  My confession is that I have been sleeping really well while he's gone  :)
  • Vent: After I spent all afternoon cleaning yesterday, the lovely ILs decided not to spend the night after FILs chemo.  While I'm thrilled they didn't spend the night, they didn't bother calling until LATE last night.  It would have been helpful to know about 5 hours before! 

    Confession: My lunch consisted of Fritos and Juicy Juice.  I really need to eat healthier lunches.
  • vent: my f-ing shoulder hurts, everytime i lift or type it's throbing.  i must of slept on it wrong.  it hurts like crazy

    confession: i miss my boss not working 5 days a week.  i know that's sick, right?

    Started TTC September 2006 5 Rounds of Clomid FAIL | 4 FAILed IUIs | Thousands of dollars wasted in IF treatments Combination of supplements and relaxtion = 2 BFPs BFP Spud 5.10.2010 | EDD 1.15.11| No heartbeat and d&c 6.17.2010 BFP Sprout 9.28.10 | EDD 6.4.11 | It's a BOY!!!| Born 6.10.11 Lilypie Angel and Memorial tickers Following my d&c, we had 1 crazy cycle and 1 normal cycle, and then we got a BFP on 9.28.10! Baby C was born 6.10.11 Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker
  • Vent: DH's boss/job is really getting on my nerves.  In general, I think DH's boss is just like mine...a poopy head.

    Confession: I am applying to law school.  No one, except DH and 3 other people I have asked for advice, know.  I am bursting to tell-especially my mom-but it is too much pressure I think.  Fingers crossed ladies that I am an LSAT savant (sp?)!! 

  • Vent:  I think the weather is sending me into a coma.  I'm tired all the time and it's really annoying.  I'm over this weather - I need spring.

    Confession:  My lunch today consisted of veggie soup and a glob of cookie dough.  I'd like to rationalize eating the glob but I can't.  Maybe it will bring me out of my coma.

  • Confession: I am sitting at my desk eating lunch and watching some of the runway shows from NY Fashion Week right now.
  • vent: it feels like everyone else and their mother has found a great new job lately cept for me

    confession: i heard huckabee speaking on the radio today and actually didn't hate everything he was saying. please dont flame me.

  • Vent: I am not a mean person, but I hope DH's ex-wife gets a really nasty, inflamed, and incurable STD. Don't ask. DRAMA today and they've been divorced how long now????

    Confession: I really want a girl and might be disappointed if it isn't. Don't flame me. I'll love my boy if that's what it is. Boy clothes are cute too :)
  • Vent:  My so called "friend" enjoys saying bad things about everyone (as long as they are not around) and today I discovered that she says thing about me.  I thought I was immune to her nastiness.  I am really not looking forward to spending an entire weekend with her and her DH next weekend on a ski trip.  At least other people will be there so I can escape.  It is almost like middle school again with her.  Have to be nice to her or she has this sick power to isolate you out of the social circle.  I feel like a complete LOSER when I am around her!!!

    Confession: I really want to go back to college, but can not justify getting more in debt with student loans to stay in the field I am in (education).  It just cannot seem to grasp spending a lot more money and still be in a job that does not reward you financially for extending your education.  I love my job, but sometimes I wonder what could have been?!?!  At least I have the summers off :)

  • wanted to add...I confess that I am addicted to shopping, not for myself, but for my son.  He has the most extensive clothing collection on any child I have ever seen.  Gymboree is EVIL...just spent too much there tonight!!!!  If there is ever a girl child in this house someday, watch out!!!
