    I'm starving.  Every day.  All the time.  

    I've been eating something every two hours just to keep myself from dying of starvation.  I've never been like this before.

  • I have eaten a bagel every morning for the past 12 days. Today, I finally got up not wanting to eat a bagel, so I had oatmeal instead.

  • Last night when I was getting ready for bed, I flossed, rinsed my hands and then went to take out my contacts. I forgot the floss was mint, so it was minted fresh when I went to touch my eyes. Not fun. Lesson learned-contact first then floss.

    I love spicy food.  It does NOT mix with contacts. I couldn't wear mine for days after once.  I apparently couldn't get the pepper oil off my hands.

    Hard decisions are hard!  A major change may be coming soon.  I'm not sure how I feel.

    (I can't get into in on here...)

    Like I said, cryptic random!  :)

  • My boss told me during my review that I am "too professional" for my hiring managers.  I don't get why it's a bad thing but it is, apparently.  I don't hand hold them but I guess I have to start.  I'd rather them be bitchslapped up to my level.

    lol!  sorry!  Thanks!

    I'm even afraid to put it on the FB baby group (it isn't baby related)!  You never know who may see!

    Right?  But there's more of them than there are of me so it's up to me to adjust.  I honestly don't give a rat's ass.  If they can't be professional at this stage in their career, I'll treat them as they treat me.

  • Julia spit up on my shoulder right before we left the house.  I actually thought I looked cute for the first time in months so I just used a baby wipe to clean it off.  I thought I did a good job but now I kind of smell like spit up. :((

  • Spent yesterday afternoon and evening at the hospital with MH who was having symptoms of a heart attack. So that was fun.

    Luckily it wasn't cardiac and turned out to be a viral infection, but still. Scary.

    Don't put off tomorrow what you can do today.
    Now this is way too much pressure for a confession that probably won't even be that good.

  • I just had a dutch baby pancake with strawberry preserves for breakfast, and now my mouth and lips are burning, and lips itch a bit.  WTF?!  I've had this exact same breakfast numerous times, and that was the last of the preserves.  Which one of those ingredients got pissy on me!?  Grrr.

  • My fingers are faster than my brain sometimes. I keep changing "Bette" to Better and half the time I type the name Chris, I just keep going and type out Christ. Thankfully it gets caught before the email gets sent or the paperwork goes out the door to a client.

  • All morning, I've been trying to decide whether I'm going to go buy new nail polish for my mani/pedi this evening. I'm on a budget so technically, I'm not allowed to spend money on frivolities like extra nail polish when I'm already spending $50 on my hands/feet tonight. I have Recessionista in my bag (a deep plum) but damn it, I'm not 100% sold and I don't want to be unhappy with my color for the next week.

    Weird! I would be popping an antihistamine (Benadryl, Claritin, etc) if you haven't already.

    Yeah, I probably should.  Ugh.  It doesn't typically make me sleepy (benadryl) but yesterday I was feeling so worn out I went to bed early and slept 10 hours and I don't want another slug day. 

    I'm over 2014.  Seriously.  This year has been one non stop fail for me.

    She does love being outside.

    I have sent out numerous settlement statements with pro-rated condom fees (which should have been condo fees).
