Friday Confessions
I confess that I mentally giggle every time I see Kristina's siggy pic. Who knew I was a Ohno fan after all....
I confess that i'm having a moral dilemma regarding whether I should eat the girl scout cookies that arrived, or give them away for the sake of my diet....
I confess my condo's club house has the most disgusting gym ever. I hate having to use it. It smells, and it's dirty.
Re: Friday Confessions
I confess that I almost called in sick today to lie in bed with my husband and listen to the rain outside.
I confess that I cheated on my diet and had a Snickers bar after lunch yesterday. It was so good and so worth it.
That's because he's oh so fine....
I confess that I still feel like crap. I feel all pukey (spelling?) and my stomach/body hurt and I just want to go home but need the money.
I confess that I really want a perm! While I was getting my hair done another hair stylist had crimpy long curly hair (permed) and I loved it. I told my stylist I want a perm (in a sarcastic tone) and she said girrrrrrrrrl please.....so I guess that means no?
I confess that I don't feel bad at all about telling my DH that I was not going to his parents for Easter. He can go by himself. I'm still pissed at them for what they did/said at Christmas and I don't feel like driving 8 hours to sit on their couch for 2 days and watch the Jesus channel while his mom cries and makes us eat chicken with no seasoning. She did this last year at our house I felt SO uncomfortable in my own home. Then when I changed the channel to watch the Beyonce Concert Special she turned her body away from the tv and stared at the ground.....evil Beyonce!!!! Drives me nuts...
I confess that it's only 10:30, but I'm already digging into the sandwich I brought for lunch. Bored and hungry do not go well together.
I confess the boss has been away from the office in Court all morning and I've barely done anything while he's been gone. Oh, except finish the mitten I've been working on...

LoL, i can just imagine you knitting at your desk!
And I understand bored and hungry. I've got two boxes of girl scout cookies sitting next to me, and it's taking all my strength not to bust them open. I know if I do, they'll be gone by the end of the day.
You crack me up! Sitting here at my desk laughing so hard!
Drives me nuts!!!!
It sucks, buddy... but I am proud of you for putting your foot down.
I do it as often as I can get away with it, which hasn't been very often lately. Last month, I think he only went to Court twice and everyone in the office was more than a little pissed about it. But he's going on vacation next month and I might just get bold enough to bring a sweater in!
You have girl scout cookies already?? We ordered some, but they haven't come yet. It's just as well. We need to get through the Valentine's Day cupcakes first.

I confess that I ate a muffin for breakfast...then a coworker brought dunkin donuts...and I ate one of those too.
I confess that I feel like CRAP today and just want to go home and get back in bed...but we are on shortened days since Congress is in recess and I didn't want to waste a sick day on an already short day.

You mean, you don't enjoy bland chicken and the Jesus channel?

I'm still waiting for her to throw holy water on me......sizzle sizzle!
I confess that I wish it were Sunday already so I can take DH to the 2 houses I am in love with. I just hope he likes 1 of them so we can put in an offer on Sunday.
I also confess I am over this home buying thing. I am just ready to find a house a move in. This is a long process thats for sure.
I confess AF showed up and I am really upset since we are trying for a little one. Maybe next month
My aunt's "book" came out... but I think it's from a fake publisher... anyways, I don't want to read it because it's pretty much a sob story about her life, and how she cured her child (my cousin) of autism (as someone in a neuroscience lab, this is crap to me)... and I swear, if I get a copy of it for christmas (which I probably will), I don't know what I'm going to do... And I've already gotten 3 emails from her "publisher" to buy the book. LEAVE ME ALONE.
I confess that I forced hubby to go in for a physical last week (he couldn't remember the last time he'd been) because he had some moles I thought looked sketchy and it turns out I was right. oh how I wish I wasn't right though... he's going back to have them removed/biopsied for melanoma.
@ Witty: Sorry to hear you were right. Hope that it turns out to be nothing. ::crossing fingers::
I confess that I am feeling sickly... AGAIN! I must have guven DH my sinus infection/cold and feels like he gave it right back to me. We need to stop sharing everything!
I'm sorry. I hope everything turns out okay!
Absolutely ditto this! My best friend is pregnant with her 1st. Just this week they found out its a GIRL and she just emailed me saying that she was moving a lot for the first time! I have some serious baby envy. But, I'm going to have to settle for spoiling her kid rotten for now! :-)
OMG that's so scary! My Mom has had to have a couple removed for Basel Cell Carcinoma (sp?) which is the less scary form of skin cancer. Hopefully that's all your DH has (once they remove the mole the cancer is gone). Knottie vibes for a good outcome! Keep us posted!
@ witty- lots of T&P's going your DH's way. I hope it turns out to be nothing!
I confess I have absolutely no interest in the Olympics. It's all anyone at my office talks about, and I am starting to feel like the only person on the planet who feels that way. They look at me like I have 8 heads every time they ask if I watched something and I say "no"
Oh I am sooooooo with you on this one. I don't have time to watch the olympics these days (or any other TV really) but it is all that gets talked about at work. At my old office it was a weekly dissection of Idol so I suppose it is just something that gets people talking.
@wittys, I'll keep my fingers crossed for a positive outcome for you and your DH.
I confess I think Johnny Weir got robbed! I don't necessarily think he deserved the gold or anything but I don't think he got fair marks at all!
I also confess I am a little worried about the cheesecake I am making in about 30 minutes for my moms birthday...well I am not worried about the cake per say, I am more worried that's it's all going to end up in my stomach!
I confess that I really need to go back to counting my WW points and exercising regularly. I had lost 12 lbs for the wedding and I've gained 1/3 of that back. Oops. Just kinda sneaked up on me. I know it's not a ton, but I can totally tell by the way my clothes fit and I feel like a bloated heifer.
I confess I am DONE with this weather. I think I have SAD.
I'm so sorry! At least he went! T&P your way!
HUGS... special prayers for you and your DH!
I confess that I am highly annoyed with my ILs and some friends. Mainly becasue they all wont give me a straight up answer on if they are coming to Jaidens 1st bday. People I dont want to buy all this food if you arent coming. grr.
I also confess that I am alittle sad that my baby is going to be a toddler next week. Where has the time gone.
... I hear ya, but at least have a good birthday, first! Eat up!
