Sorry gals! Lorelai was wondering what day it was... when... BAM!
Ok, sorry not too exciting-lessee...

The ugly
And in third person!!!
Re: TPT**wow... where's my mind?!?
The good---Lorelai's feeling better-ever sooo slowly. She may have jury duty tomorrow and kinda hopes she does-so if you don't see her here tomorrow-you'll know she's saying GUILTY! (this is her 4-5 time being called, but only had to go in once)
The bad--Lorelai's mind is just not with it lately... she thought she had a dentist appt Fri-she didn't... she almost forgot TPT... she wants to cut off her nose cause the shut off valve is not working!
The ugly--L's tired. just tired. Oh, and tired of being tired. (but lovin the codeine!) need anything more?
Good - Lauren gets to go home soon...
Bad - Lauren has cramps
Ugly - Lauren wishes it was physically possible to lose about 20 pounds in a week and not have adverse health effects. Lauren is also super annoyed with a good friend of hers, but that's more of a FF post.
Lorelai's sorry Lauren's not feeling too hot, but also wishes the 20 lb thing would be true...
The Good - Athena just had popcorn and diet coke for lunch.
The Bad - Athena has no motivation to work especially now that she is ready to go into a carb induced coma from so much popcorn.
The Ugly - Athena knows she needs to go home tonight and work on her resume. She has been putting it off for the last week. However, she will probably be bad and go home and watch the Olympics instead.
Athena is also wishing there was a lose 20 lbs instantly bandwagon she could hop on
The Good- Sierra is so excited that the weather is getting warmer so she will be able to ride her Cash ma more!! Sierra loves that her DH loves that she put a dent in his car.
The Bad- Sierra is sad she put a dent in DH's car.
The Ugly- Sierra knows all the stuff going on with DH's Gran needs to come out but is pretty sure it will just sit and fester some more....ugh...
Sierra also wants to say if anyone figures out how to do the 20lbs in a week thing, let her know! K Thnx!
Good: Jen's Crib comes today!
The real Good: Jen checked the current price on the crib. She paid $270, it is now up to $350 again...Thank goodness for online comparison shopping because Jen was going to pay $460 for the same exact thing!
The Bad: Jen got a rejection letter from Ramsey County for a junior engineer job she applied for in September. 4 months of stringing along and filling out their stupid forms, extra info requests and writing a 3 page summary of her experience to get rejected...Jen's pissed!
The Ugly: Jen is starting to notice urinary incontinence issues creeping up. If she has a full bladder and sneezes or coughs, Jen has to really work to "hold it". Time for some serious keegles!
TTC #1 13 cycles, CP 6/09, TTC #2 1 cycle
CDing, EP'd for 13 months for #1, BFing for #2
Pregnancy Hypertension - inductions at 39w, I grow big babies: DD was 9 pounds 1 ounce 22 inches, DS was 11 pounds even 22 inches - both vaginal deliveries
Good: Cassie went out to a lovely dinner last night.
The Bad: Cassie screwed up an order at work. Cassie is very annoyed at herself, but also annoyed with production for going ahead and running an order with an obvious error, clearly just to be jerks.
The Ugly: Cassie is still hurting and kind of depressed. The weather and a week and a half of cramps is not helping.
The good - Amber is excited for Taco Tuesday at our house. Amber's son came up with the name and now they look forward to it.
The bad - Amber's new puppy is sick with an upper respiratory and now the other dog is sick too. It makes Amber sad that her little puppy is sick
The ugly - Amber has nothing ugly to report right now.
Amber would very much like for that 20lb thing to be real!
The Good: Kirstin woke her DH up out of a dead sleep this morning and got some morning lovin! Reooooowr This hasnt happened since the dating years! Kirstin thinks her DH was surprised and totally caught off gaurd, clearly...since he was sleeping. lol
The Bad: Kirstin made a dinner last night that was soooo gross. She had a good idea it might be gross...but something about tatter tot casserol drew her to the recipe. LOL. DH tossed it after she told him it would be left overs for tongiht...so she really failed at dinner!
The Ugly: The phones have been down for 2 days at Kirstins work. They randomly work for 5 minutes at a time. It is hard for her to do her job. Also product from germany that she has been waiting for is caught up in customs and she has been unraveling it all morning only to find the sender really F'ed up...but they are in Germany, so they are already closed and she cant get an answer until tomorrow. It has been a month since she has ordered this stuff and really needs it for the crew down in production. oi
The good: Jenny is blowin' this pop stand in less than 6 weeks!
The bad: Jenny is going to have a crazy 6 weeks. . .
The ugly: Jenny's MIL. See previous rant.
The good: Amy got a bonus of 15 points on her final b/c the teacher gave the whole class the wrong version, so she got 44/34 points. Hopefully should be enough to bump that A- to an A.
The bad: Amy has a Pharm. test tomorrow that she really hasn't started studying for
The ugly: Amy really needs to clean the house because it is fvcking disgusting.
The Good - Tomorrow is one day closer to Friday. (sorry, that's all Sheri's got right now)
The Bad - Sheri's anxiety is getting worse. She now gets quick bouts of nausea soon after waking up in the morning. It lasts a few quick minutes then passes. Sheri needs to move asap. Sheri's MIL is slowly driving her insane.
The Ugly - See The Bad
The Good: Erin didn't get laid off and has a pretty slow work week this week. One of her freelance articles was the cover story today in the commuter paper! She had a great tomato, avocado hummus sandwich and an orange for lunch and is going to head off to Starbucks to work for the rest of the afternoon, where she MAY indulge in a little cupcake.
The Bad: Erin's friend is trying to convince her to go out for dinner on Friday with people she doesn't like or know. Erin doesn't want to and is being evasive, but she wishes the person would just take a hint! She doesn't like your best friend's sister enough to go celebrate her birthday with a bunch of other strangers!
The Ugly: Erin's hair. Thank goodness she's getting it cut/dyed tomorrow.
The Good: Ashley is really enjoying work. Plus, she made her first sale for the business!! The roaster is still not in... but the mini roaster will do and she it thrilled to have made a sale. One step at a time
The Bad: Ashley feels like CRAP! She has had sinus issues for the past 2 months straight. The nurse practitioner gave her allergy meds a month ago and they were working till last week. Now, nothing. Ashley can barely breathe and is constantly sneezing. She's never had allergy issues before, but her NP thinks that's what it is, so she has an appt with an allergist in a few weeks.
The Ugly: Along with Ashley feeling cruddy, so does her dh. Poor guy is only eating cereal and pasta with no sauce. He is having major issues swallowing anything - everything just gets stuck in his troat making him ill. He has an appt for a scope of his troat/stomach on Friday. Hopefully then they can find out what's wrong and it's nothing too serious. Ashley's seriously worried
Good: Breanne slept for 6 straight hours last night. Breanne can't remember the last time she did that!
Bad: Breanne is still tired from being up in the middle of the night the night before.
Ugly: Breanne's house needs a serious cleaning and she is too tired to do it.
The Good: Aria's house offer was put in the good group that was sent to the bank. Aria is looking forward to hiring help and may be able to hook up one of her former hires.
The Bad: Aria thinks Tom Petty said it best: WAAAAAITNG is the HARDest part.
The Ugly: Aria is using food as anxiety medication and this is counteracting her weight loss strategy. Aria needs to lose a lot of weight because she's wearing her maternity clothes. Aria needs to look hot by memorial day!!!!
The Good: Angie and DH decided to TTC on their own for the interim, but will still put off the fertility doctor visit until September. Angie figures since her cycles are 115+ days, this will give them one or two more shots before they decide to pursue medications, and more time to see if she ovulates on her own again, which is why Angie and her DH figure it might be okay to try (still somewhat tentative, but its one of the good things that happened to Angie today). Angie is also super happy that her DH bought her flowers today to cheer her up.
The Bad: Angie has not been feeling very well, and hopes to feel better soon.
The Ugly: Angie needs to clean house, etc - going out of town has made her lazy.
Kim knows she is late to the game but she had a busy afternoon at work and couldn't play.
The Good: Kim's roof stopped leaking and the snow is starting to melt.
The Bad: Kim is not happy they are predicting more snow for the end of the week
The Ugly: Kim's DH has been sick since last Wednesday
