Confession Session
I think it's time for one.
I confess that I'm jealous of Jen because she's moving on up, to the east side, to a deluxe apartment in the sky 
. No, all kidding aside I am very happy for you and hope that this position makes you happy because you deserve it!
My confession is that our landlord told me that our rent would be $150 less this month. She felt bad because we had some water pump issues for a few days. It was not a big problem for Richard and me. I told her this but she insited that the rent would be less this month. I was so tempted not to tell Richard so that he could pay a larger portion of the rent. A few seconds later I realized that I couldn't do that. I told him that I was going to do that and we laughed it off.
Re: Confession Session
Lol, that's funny that you confessed to Richard.
I got some random money from a lawsuit over BarBri (bar test prep) materials, and MH was a little shocked when I said I was going to go blow it on clothes rather than just put it in our joint account. Um, separate property, dude!
My confession is that I cannot get it up for this week at work. I still feel so jetlagged, and just exhausted in general. I really want to just go home and come back Monday, hopefully well-rested.
I confess I'm about break out of this joint and start my spring break.
And I confess I'm super nervous about Monday even though it's not a formal interview or anything.
I can?t take it, take it, take no more
Never felt like, felt like this before
Come on get me, get me on the floor
DJ what you, what you waiting for?
I confess, this song makes me want to shake my bootay!
I also confess I cried throughout the entire Grey's episode last night. 95% of it was from sadness. 5% was from laughter.
The Princess of Anything is Coming!
Had a dream I was queen.
Woke up. Still queen.
I confess that even though this is my last day at work I want to knock off early.
I also confess that I really don't want to live on a budget (I know, no one does). Kohl's has baybee clothes on sale. And I have a coupon (I think) and a gift card (I know). And I really want to go nuts buying for the jelly bean.
I confess that I think MIL is a nosy PITA who really needs to MHOB. My 10 yo niece came home from school one day and told her mom (SIL) that there was rumor going around her class about another girl going down on boys and asked what it means. So, DN, SIL AND MIL????? (uninvited) sat down and had a 2 hour 'talk' about the birds & the bees. WhyTF does MIL need to participate in that discussion???
shameful confession:
this morning while working from home, i confess i watched the worlds worst movie ever of all infinity: miley cyrus in "the last song." whenever she spoke, i died a little inside. it was so bad.
i also confess: i cried twice while watching it. until miley spoke and then i got angry and stopped crying.
Blog
I can handle her in moderation but when the radio stations plays "will you hold it against me" every hour on the hour it drives me nuts.
I read this at first as, "I'm going to break out this joint" and it had an entirely different meaning for me.
I confess that I went and hid somewhere during my lunch break to get away from people and read a book. The majority of my lab is away at a conference and I don't really like the people who are left. 'm in a pissy mood because my boss is MIA, so I wanted to avoid running into him by chance, as well.
My other confession: Yeah, I'm pissed that my boss didn't come in (we were supposed to meet today) and isn't responding to my e-mails, but my distaste for him leaves me unwilling to pick up a phone and call him to see what's going on. Even though if he's NOT coming in, I can leave early and go clean my house for the impending in-laws visit.
I got J good with a "we're preggo!" April Fools. In all honestly I wish it was truth. Fail.
I came in work 1.5 hours late today and plan to scoot out 20 minutes early to catch an earlier train. I rationalize it with working 4 hours overtime last night. Even though I get paid for it.
09.25.10
Hehe. I thought about doing the same but didn't want to jinx myself and end up pregnant for real next month.
I confess that K and I are busy planning our exit strategies from work while everyone around us is oblivious talking about huge projects for next year and blah, blah, blah. We decided that after our vacation in September (staying here til then b/c we get 25 vacation days), we're going to start looking elsewhere and moving far, far away from here. It makes me so happy inside I think I might burst. It also makes me not really care about my performance here. It's not like I really get any recognition for hard work anyway...
Sunshine, so exciting. I love that.
I confess this back issue has turned me into a lazy fat azz this week. No bueno.
i
you debbie! your time is coming...you'll get a better job than that sh!thole you're at now. i know our problems aren't as bad as some peoples, but i feel like we're slowing getting out of the mud and into the sand...life is slowly coming together for us.
i admit that even though we're not TTC, im jealous of mushe...im so happy for you that it makes me wish we were in a good enough place to afford to entertain the idea of having a kid.
i absolutely cannot stand the girl that im training to replace me...thank goodness I dont have to put up w/ her after today! she's been here for 4 days now and cannot comprehend a single thing. they're going to eat her alive next week...it's like instead of having a brain it's just air. it's sad and so frustrating! it's put a damper on this week for me. poor don, he's had to listed to me b!tch all week about how bad she is...i seriously felt like on her first day that it was a joke as far as how clueless she was.
new confession:
i am sitting here on the computer pretending to be responding to work emails so gerren has to load the car without my help
ok now i feel guilty, going to help!
Blog
love it!!! this made me laugh b/c ive done the samething to don!
Shauni, you are hilarious. I'm so glad to 'know' you.
I confess I'm just in a pissy mood, don't talk to me, leave me alone, and in 3.5 hrs, I'm out!
I confess we're having a potluck at work and we have to all eat together and it's making me even pissier as per above confession.
I confess the SM wedges I just got are hella cute but so painful, my fat arse could never wear them for more than an hour. Am I going to return them? Hell no...
I confess that I give you props for admitting this, I don't think I could have.
I totally know how you feel, because that was me, for a long time. I took my sweet time in doing everything in life, like finding MH. Now, though, we're olds, so we've got to rush! And these hormones are for shiit, seriously. I was thinking yesterday about how happy I am that I'm finally pg, and started crying.
DITTO!
Ooh, I have a real one, that I forgot earlier.
I confess that I'm disappointed in MIL's reaction to our news. H was even campaigning to tell them first, because they live so far away and feel disconnected from us because of that. He predicted great, streaming balls of tears. She was like, 'well, that's exciting. Hopefully it all works out.' And then asked multiple times if it would interfere with our plans to come to PA in July. Grr.
And: I'm being a PW today because I'm thisclose to being Bronze, and I'm inordinately excited about that.
I confess I am fed up with the new lady that started here about a month ago who keeps cutting out of work early. She doesn?t get her stuff done, and no I have to take on her work because she sucks. Although I am happy that other people are seeing that?s she?s a b!tch.
Ugh. It's all about her? No 'how you feeling' or anything? Ugh.
She did ask at one point, but it just seemed (1) unnecessarily negative, to be all, yeah, hope that works out for you, and (2) all about her with the concern re: vacation, especially when I said that we're still on for it, and then she asked again later.
I'm really just shocked that she hasn't even emailed or anything since then. My mom has sent me like a dozen emails about how happy she is for us, and also called me.
When I was thisclose to bronze, i was trying be a PW too but you you made it so CONGRATS!!
I confess that I am SO glad that it is April. In the past three weeks we've had the earthquake/tsunami, my Gma passed, both my dad and Sam's dad were admitted to the hospital for emergency surgeries and I've had to bury my Gma. I'm done with March. I just want everything to go back to normal.
Mush- I'm super excited for you guys!! I just saw your ticker today and realized that I've been out of the loop.
I just spent an hour in the knot jealous because everybody is planning weddings.
I want another baby but then again I don't because I don't want any attention away from Miss E and saturday night Im going out with an old roommate and don't really want to give that up since I just got that a year ago.
I confess that I have no self control - I'm only two days behind mushE
(yay us!)
Yay, Aspersia! Great news.
