Re: Flameful confession
I left and came back to 3 pages. I like this nighttime posting for a change.
Ugh...I totally get where you're coming from. I worked with some very violent kids at my last job and felt the same way about a few. It's sad but really, there's just no hope for some of them and it freaks me out to think what else they'll end up doing.
On one hand I'd absolutely want to be done with this disease.
On the other hand it has led to me living the life I currently have and I'm a pretty big believer in natural selection and genetic diseases having a role in society.
She pisses me off.
I'm really sorry you don't have the mom you deserve.
Jump on in, KDuv!
I get really annoyed by my husband's laziness.
Yes, he will do things when I ask him to do them.
But I have to ask each and every time.. and he usually pisses and moans while he's doing whatever it is that needs to be done.
I sometimes wish that I had a job that was more community involved. I'd really look into it, except that I can't handle the bad parts of a job (such as a kid killing dogs). I want to help people, but there are some that just "ruin it" for me. I guess I don't have the mentality to do it.
ETA: spelling/grammar
My car totally ticks me off because it doesn't work how I immediately want it to...like, the third row would not flip up.
When it does stuff like that, I blame it on being a Ford.
Also, I just got home from Target. When I said I was going to go, DH was like "ok, let's go".
I'm alone a lot and love when he's home, but I just wanted to go alone...drive by myself...blast music as loud as I want...I just didn't want him to go.
I don't feel that bad. I feel bad that I don't feel bad, but I don't just feel bad...does that make any sense?
My MIL was all shocked that someone would take their dog to doggy daycare.
It was all I could do to not rip her a new one (simply because it wouldn't have helped/changed/sunk in) about how, yes, people do care about their dogs.
Not everyone would leave a dog chained outside 24/7 for its entire life and simply talk about how they should probably do 'something' once the dog has had multiple strokes and it blind.
Fvc&ing Christ! That's how we should treat animal abusers, not animals!
And as for KNavy and her mom...I know it's not right, but I get it about her mom...it's just not that easy to leave your abuser when you're married to them, especially when you've been married to them for a long time.
If KNavy were to let her dad walk her down the aisle, I would not look down on her. I would also not look down on her if he didn't walk her.
I got it! Did your other interview go well? Sorry, I can't recall if I read if it went well or not.
I'm thinking about doing a doggie daycare for Foxxy.
Ala, it's like you're in my head tonight. lol.
Really I'm just tired of doing dishes all.the.time. We don't have a dishwasher so my hands are dry and cracked. I wish for once my H would take over the task just for a week. I feel bad complaining though because he works 6-7 days a week and I usually don't mind the other house work. But damn, I hate dishes and it would be nice if he volunteered to give my hands/skin a break.
The more I'm around my IL's the more flaws I've started to see in them and things that make me mad. We get along ok, but almost every time I talk to MIL I leave feeling irritated by something she said or did. She oversteps her boundaries and tries to push her beliefs on others.
Yep! It went great
I start tomorrow.
Someone drove you, right? You didn't drive yourself, right?
Plus he gets pissy if he gets bored and whines. I just want to slowly meander.
I love that he's finally stopped going grocery shopping with me!
DH would complain about how much money is spent...GAH.
I much prefer to shop alone sometimes.
Your MIL scares me. No lie. I just don't think I'd keep my cool around her, I'd flip my lid. I'd always have anxiety when I know I have to communicate with her.
Great!
She is crazy, yo. I'm still not over you receiving stuff from her internet friends!
LOL. This was me on my wedding night!!
Well, I wouldn't say I got plastered but toward the end of the reception I was pretty drunk. In my defense, it was at midnight and the only guests left at this point were immediate family, our friends who were also drunk, and the DJ. Someone had to finish off the beer, wine, and margaritas! Good times.
I was driven home. There is no way I could have functioned a motor vehicle.
A lot of times I just stare blankly at her.
OOoooh, I'm so about to go off on someone on FB. My cousin just wrote that she's confused and some douchenozzle said "it's drink time".
She's a fricking alcoholic. It's ruined her life and she's only in her early 20's. It's ruining her mother's life.
FVVVVVVVCK, man. Alcoholism is not a JOKE.
Sounds like a blast! I like the idea of margaritas at a wedding...I had not considered that before. Hmm.
Good
