FRIDAY CONFESSIONS

Because it's all anyone seems to be talking about on Twitter...

BEN AFFLECK is the new BATMAN. UNLESS he directs it.

Personally, I think Ben is a fantastic director.  I hate the idea of him playing a superhero.

Re: FRIDAY CONFESSIONS

  • Daredevil.  'Nuff said.

  • The smoke alarms in my place started going off while I was cooking dinner.  H couldn't understand why the kitchen seemed so smoky.  I blamed it on the grill pan.  Truth was I just wasn't paying attention to cooking because I was too busy responding to an epic text conversation.

  • One of the things that makes me miss A the most is that he was the one who did our laundry.

    Same here. I don't really get into the superhero movies and even I can't see him as Batman.
    Whether or not you find your own way, you're bound to find some way. If you happen to find my way, please return it, as it was lost years ago. I imagine by now it's quite rusty.”

    He can just pull a Christian Bale and have a disgusting and totally awkward growly (sp? - or is it even a word) Batman voice.

  • I haven't written anything in a few days. I feel very guilty about it, but I somehow lost my mojo.
    I write sexy books. I read all the books. I love dresses & macarons.

  • My mom is coming next week to help us out for a few days after DS#1 has his Tonsillectomy,DH is working so much and can't change his schedule, I am so over her already, she is driving me crazy, I just want to tell her to forget it and hire a sitter, ugh. 
  • I didn't look at myself in the mirror before I left the house.  After realizing that my shirt was a little short on the bottom and low on the top, I am doomed to wear a sweatshirt at work all day.  We really need a mirror on the first floor of the house.

  • I couldn't care less about Ben Affleck being cast as Batman.
  • A country song just made me cry. Now I'm overcompensating by playing Are You Still Down on repeat.

    @elistar You Were Mine by The Dixie Chicks. It killed me when she said she could think of two good reasons why he shouldn't have cheated and she lists her kids.

  • My BIL has been snooping in my sister's FB and texts and found the conversation we had where I said he needs meds, so he unfriended me on FB.  Tough cookies, dipshit.  The truth hurts.  For example, my sister has had a hard time finding a job, so my BIL decided to QUIT his "for the family."  WTF, dude??  He also posts ridiculously lovey dovey crap on his page that was apparently the exact opposite of how he was behaving in person.  My sister left him (again, apparently) on Monday and is staying at my mom's condo with the two girls.  My sister and BIL both thrive on drama, though, so I'm not 100% sure my sister isn't a little crazy, too.  I'm trying to stay out of it as much as I can, since the crazy seems to feed on sympathy in this case.  Being 9 hours away helps.

  • Confession: My step sister and my real sister are getting married within 2 weeks of each other. I can't even pretend to be excited for my step-sister, but I'm glowing with wedding planning excitement for my sister.

  • I kind of hate that high-waisted pants/shorts are coming back. Granted, I will be happy to see less muffin tops, but I don't know if camel toe is a good trade off.
    If pants are tight enough to someone camel toe, i think there's some other problems that need to be addressed. like wearing appropriately sized pants lol
  • I'm listening to all my Pandora stations on random today.  Yeah by Usher, Ludacris, and Lil Jon came on and I totally stopped working to have a dance party.  I miss the early 2000's.

    Totally agree! I've seen some girls pull off the look nicely, but most seem to miss the mark.

  • I am constantly over-booking myself. I want to do ALL THE FUN THINGS, but I need to remember to give myself a break every once in a while. I did a 5k adventure run after work last night, have happy hour tonight, tomorrow I am having lunch with friends, then have a pole dancing class. I've been to 7 concerts in the last two months, did two weekend overnight trips, a couple of runs, book club meetings, a few ball games, wino Wednesdays...ack! 

    It has also seriously cut into my reading time.

    I think I'd be cracking up the entire class.
    Your life currently sounds like my life pre-high maintenance baby. Sigh.

    My friend bid on a group class and won it. So there's like, 20 of us. Should be an interesting night, that's for sure. I'm sure we will be dissolving into giggles throughout most of it.

  • Not much of a confession, but I think once this trip is over I am going to avoid my mother in law for a long while until I like her again. Because right now, I really really don't.
