let's do friday flame-free confessions

i'll start.

last night, i told the hub that my GTG started an hour earlier than the actual time because it was in pasadena and i wanted to hit up forever 21 for a reunion outfit (that i have no business spending money on).

i left the bag and receipt in the car, rolled up in a jacket.

this morning, he went down to strap in the bean's car seat and came back upstairs with an armful of crap i had in the car, including the jacket i'd used to cover up the contraband.  i saw the bag sitting happily in the passenger seat when i got in.

crap.

  • When the balloon boy story was posted on here yesterday, all I did was laugh. Then people started posting thoughts of concern for the boy, and I felt a little like an a-hole because that never even crossed my mind. I just thought it was funny.

  • I have a similar one.. I really shouldn't be spending money on getting  my hair done today or buying a new birthday outfit - but that's what I intend to do as soon as I am off work anyway. :P
  • I really really want to get the brazilian blowout done on my hair next week when I come down to OC.  I really dont need to spend the extra money on that right now AT ALL and Casey's bday is that weekend.... but I just really want it done and am trying to justify it some how... so far I've not been able to except for the fact that my hair would look awesome from the moment I wake up and not need a flat iron for 12 weeks.

    No clue what that is but for a minute there I was about to scream TMI TMI thinking you meant one for down there.

  • I am trying to figure out if I can lean on my left side long enough to get a pedicure this afternoon.  My feet are in rough shape.  Tongue Tied

    After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!

  • Jess, don't feel bad. The family confessed it was a hoax to get on tv. I am still peeved about that stunt. http://perezhilton.com/2009-10-15-balloon-boy-confesses-it-was-for-the-show

    My confession. I threw a hissy fit last night when hubs wouldn't confirm with me that he'd try to paint the dresser, assemble the crib, and fix the custom closet rods. Yes I wanted him to promise to do it all this weekend. When he got mad at me for "the ask", I threw a tude. I am such an impatient b!tch.

  • Hahah Aline.  I know.  When my friend told me she was doing them now at her salon I told her to keep that ish to herself.  LOL. 

    Arino- I feel bad for you and totally know how you feel!

  • jayme, is that similar to the japanese straightening thing?

  • I think it might be.  Not sure.  www.brazilianblowout.com  I have to have it done someday.  I told Erik it could be his early Christmas present to me (I know he'd forget by Christmas lol)  Guess that was another confession.

    I did that when I was pregnant.  But it was over the fact that Erik wouldn't take me to get Ribs at my favorite place, he made me go somewhere else which was good but not what I wanted.  And I cried.  And laughed at the same time because I was crying over ribs and laughing that I was crying over ribs. LOL

  • H's bff is throwing a Halloween party. I told H that I don't want to go because I'm not really into the idea of dressing up. I feel like a *** about it because he doesn't see his bff often.

    What I didn't tell H is that I'm not into going to this particular party because bff's wife, SIL and many of the other women who are usually at their parties are totally gorgeous with great bodies. I don't want to be Fatty McFrumperson while everyone else is in their sexy-whatever costume. I left the ultimate decision up to H, but I am really hoping he doesn't want to go either because the night sounds like it would be a personal hell.

  • Sometimes I see other babies and wonder if their parents are sad that their baby isn't as cute as mine.

  • I just bought a halloween costume online.  I also have no business spending any money these days but I said fvck it.

    I have a faux-crush on this guy in my office.  he's married and he flirts with anything that walks his way, but it's still kind of fun.  I would never, ever, ever do anything, but it's still fun.  Embarrassed

  • I'm annoyed by an email I received from a family member about giving her a list of the kind of guys I like so that she could set me up because she hates that I'm always the "odd one out" at family events.

    :( I think you two are gorgeous!

  • My current home board is soooo slow and boring I can't stand it.  The girls are nice, but no one ever posts anything.

    But I laughed WAY before there was thought of it even being a hoax...which is why I don't even care that it was all a stunt. Tongue Tied

  • I am the only one in our office of cubicals for the next hour.  It's kinda weird.  But I like it.  No one looking over my shoulder and seeing what I'm doing.  I could get used to this.

  • Y_L: I agree with you on the whole balloon boy thing... my mom and I had bets he was hiding underneath the bed the whole time.I agree with fitty too: MBOC and Starlily you both are beautiful.I have two confessions, first on the bump boards (specifically trimester boards)everytime I see an H1N1 I want to pull out my teeth one by one because of the foolishness some of the girls post.Do your research, speak with an allied healthcare professional, or review CDC website stop with all the flippin' hysteria!Second confession, I played a trick on E and woke up screaming at him telling him the baby was coming and that it was time. I know it was evil of me, but the look on his face was priceless. I promised him I wouldn't do it again, but I had to play this trick on him since he thinks contractions are "fun".Sorry one more... I really nervous about having to do an amniocentesis on Monday. I know it's super important before they can induce me next week to check lung maturity for the baby... but I'm still nervous :/

    You guys are nuts.  You're both cute as hell inside and out aside from dressing really well and being smart and funny.

    But you're not the only ones that feel this way.  I think we all have our nasty insecurities, so I totes understand.

    LOL....this had me cracking up.  Some people may think it's evil to do that to your DH, but I find it hysterical.  Something I would pull.  

    GL on Monday.  It's ok to be nervous, but you'll do fine!
