Monday Confessions
I have two.
Sat I had to take my car back to the stereo place bc there's no sound when I plug in my iPod. So I plugged in my player to show the guy and somehow the Latest Downloads list was selected- it's a new car so I have no idea how to change the folder. On rotation was Alcohol&Ass, S&M and Shots (Dirty). You know, workout music... I cycled through them a few times trying in vain to find something non-trashy. No dice.
Also, when I walk into the ladies restroom lately, I start unbuttoning my pants before I get to the stall.
I'm one klassy b!tch, yall.
Next?
Re: Monday Confessions
Here's mine....after not making it to the gym for about 2 months now, I'm canceling my membership. And to make me feel better about it, I think I'm going to get some chili cheese tots on my way back to work since I have to come back for inventory tonight
I'm trying to convince myself its not that bad since I do have a gym at work and at my apartments, both of which I've never used lol.
My dad just emailed me to see if I want to meet him and my aunt & uncle (who are visiting from FL) for dinner tonight. I really don't feel like going, since I spent several hours* with them yesterday. I fully recognize I'm being a pill and am just wanting to do what I'd already planned for this evening: go to the grocery store, get some work done on a project, and sit on my couch.
* Backstory: my dad volunteered me to host my aunt & uncle yesterday afternoon/evening for visiting and dinner, and he also invited my brother and his family (to my house). I had nine dinner guests (including myself), and not only had I just planned for 8--my brother wasn't planning to attend but showed up at the last minute--everyone showed up later than I expected and stayed as late as I'd feared.
Rarely Updated Blog
Good confessions this week, ladies.
Mine: Saturday, DH was busy with bachelor party stuff all day and night so here's what I did. I went browsing at Babies R Us (we're TTC but not pg), shopping (well, browsing, no luck), grocery shopping at Central Market where I got myself a delicious meal that I wouldn't mess with cooking for us both, two desserts (mini coconut pie and mini lemon pie thingy) and a bottle of wine. Then, I came home watched a chick flick, ate wayyy to much then finished the night with the rest of my wine and a good book in the tub. It was AWESOME!
2nd: I'm supposed to go to a bachelorette party next Saturday. I do not want to go. We aren't very good friends but I feel bad bc I haven't gone to any of her showers. What makes me want to go even less...I just found out that she's planning on going to a strip club to end the night. Okay, I get it....but they're planning on going to a club where women strip. Am I the only one who thinks this is odd? No offense if you like going to them but I don't care to pay to see what I've already got.
I wouldn't go. I have no desire to go to any kind of strip club, much less to pay for it for someone I don't consider a good friend. Too much potential for awkwardness, IMO!
It's 6pm. I still have a ton of work to do before my very high-profile launch on Wednesday morning. And I think I'm going to just go home and put it all off till tomorrow.
Also... I "accidentally" spent over $400 on a facial, including gratuity and products to take home. Oops. Don't tell DH. It was awesome though!

Thanks for the back up! I knew it wouldn't be terrible of me to skip out.
I just spend an obscene amount of money for two items at lululemon. And I really don't like lululemon all that much, but the stuff was cute. I only got two things, but I feel so guilty at how expensive it was! I did it to celebrate the fact that I got a job and I feel like it was a totally irresponsible way to reward myself.
And thanks FireChiefsBride for your hilarious confession! You are too klassy!
Good for you! There are much lesser valid things you could spend the money on. It was a reward.
