Thursday Randoms!

I challenge you to not discuss cartoon parties or best toys!  HA!  

Re: Thursday Randoms!

  • DH leaves after I do in the mornings and is still in bed when I leave.  He knows that it makes me crazy if the bed is not made, and if I come home after work and it's unmade, the first thing I do is make it.   So lately, he's been making it every day.  YAY DH.   Except he just kind of pulls the covers up, pulls the comforter up and puts the pillows on.  It's still messy and it bugs me. I like the sheets straightened and tucked in.   It makes me feel like a b*tch, so I don't say anything, I just straighten the covers when I go to bed.   
  • Well, I'm a total b!tch too then.  DH also leaves after me in the morning and he takes the boys to daycare.  I used to help him out to make the mornings easier and less rushed by packing the boys lunches and laying their clothes and anything else out that they needed for the day.  Then I noticed that he was using that to his advantage by sleeping even later each morning, so I stopped doing it!

    I hate our salesman. They are the biggest bunch of f'ing arseholes. The one never believes that anyone but him can possibly know anything. And I am super salty because he decided to sell one of his contractor parts(they are only suppose to sell new equipment) and so I lose my commission on an expensive parts sale ($10,000). He had no idea what to order and when I told him he HAD to call the factory because there is no way I could possibly be correct. I was. It doesn't help he is a huge douchecanoe as a human being. And the other two are just morons, they remind me of my lab.

    I am getting my hair done tonight and I don't know what to do.  So since today is the last day my boss is out of the office, I will peruse Pinterest this afternoon. I soooo want to cut it but I know I will regret that come August when I am sweating like a pig at my brother's wedding ceremony in NC. 

    On a positive note, I did find really cute closed toe nude pumps for the wedding and they will be here today.

  • Oh, Kris, I like those shoes!  Very nice!

    I LOVE the shoes!
     
  • The FSIL just said a closed toe nude pump, she didn't say they had to be plain.  ;) I still think closed toe nude pumps in August is ridiculous. But she always wears nude pumps, she isn't a ridiculous shoe whore like me who really hates plain shoes. We are wearing navy j.crew dresses with nude pumps, boring.  I-)

  • I've been trying to change my kids birthday tracker thingy in my signature for 3 days now.  Looks like she will be stuck at her 4th birthday forever. 
     
  • Kris, those shoes are gorgeous.

    My random is that I started doing T25 and I really like it. I know it's only 25 minutes and I was very skeptical but my soreness tells me it's doing something. We just finished the first 5 days. I haven't worked out in over 3 years. I feel really proud of myself and Casey (we've been doing it together). I forgot how easy it is to make better food/drink choices b/c you don't want to ruin your workout.

    I, once again, convinced myself I was pregnant. I was scared and anxious, then was very disappointed when AF showed up. WTH is wrong with me?

    I chopped all of my hair off about 2 weeks ago. It's just under my chin. I love it. I'm really tired of people telling me how "brave" I am. WTF?

    I'm having a hard time curbing Facebook rage lately.

    I want to work part-time so I can spend more time with G - but that's not in the cards (just like it hasn't been for the last 2 years).

    OMG, this.  It's silly really, but I can't help it. 
  • Seriously, Meghan. I've been staying away b/c it's pissing me off so much. I have to restrain myself from replying with really b*tchy/snarky comments to things, so I've just opted to bow out for a while. 

    Also, I feel like a high schooler, but I'm sick of getting my feeling hurts b/c I see posts between friends about the fun time they had, to which I was not invited. I feel so ridiculous even saying that.

    I totally get the facebook thing.  I've have not been on facebook in almost a year.  I just started up a march of dimes team and I need to come out of facebook retirement to beg for donations and team members.  I'm already dreading going back on facebook.

     

    I also understand the later period/mix of emotions thing.  It really does mess with your head feeling all those different emotions in such a short period of time.

    there's just so much to look at.  Are those sweatpants? 
     
  • I can't see the pic, but I thought Ralph Lauren designed them?  How could he go wrong?

     

  • Meghan, he did design them, but the top looks like a bad Christmas sweater, but replace the christmas mess with olympic themed mess.
    imageimage
  • I looked them up online, ugh!  I don't have a real opinion on RL, but I didn't think he would design something so tacky for the Olympics!

    The Olympics this year should be interesting this year, I just hope nothing catastrophic happens.

  • Will Ferrell would be the perfect model for those outfits!!

    In Olympic type news, did anyone else watch 30 on 30 The Price of Gold about Nancy Kerrigan and Tonya Harding? They're rerunning it if you're interested. First of all, I can't believe that was 20 years ago and second of all, Tonya is still hella bitter about the whole thing. The early 90's was the pinnacle of my figure skating obsession, so I really enjoyed it.

  • Those Olympic outfits are...busy.   DH went to Salt Lake right after the 2002 Olympics.  We had just started dating.   He brought me back one of the beret hats that the athletes wore.  I think he got caught up in the moment, because all of these years later and it still has the tags on it.  I mean, do I look like the beret type?
    image
  • Amber, that should be your official winter hat. It looks just your style
    >:)

  • Amber, let's meet for lunch next week.  I'll be able to spot you by the beret on your head.

  • I thought Ryan Reynolds was Canadian?  What is he doing in the US Olympics outfit? 

    side note - if being hot were an Olympic event, I wouldn't care what country he represented,  Gold all over the place for you, Ryan Reynolds!
