  I think sometimes that I'm not being a great mom because of my unconventional approach to holidays (in that I just don't care that much.)

  Nope Your approach to holidays has no correlation to your greatness as a mom. 

  
  

  Also, I adore that your siggy says that you are 66 weeks pregnant. No wonder you are so unenthused.

  Recently all of my friends become complete flakes. I have probably 5 or 6 SAHM friends and only 1 who I make plans with and know that she'll follow through. Everyone else has about a 25% chance of actually showing up and not texting an hour before that their kid is cranky or whatever. Your kid is cranky because you trap them in the house all the frigging time. 

  
  

  I was stood up twice this week and once last week for no actual reason that I can discern and am bitter about it.  

  I was just bitching about the same thing this morning. I don't have kids but I'm basically willing to meet you just about anywhere and anytime that works for you AND your children. Yet every single time I have plans with a parent friend I get cancelled on last minute because their kid is cranky, "not feeling well", blah, blah, blah. So basically you don't want to bother getting you and your kid dressed to hang out with someone so completely insignificant to your chosen lifestyle. I've recieved the message loud and clear- I don't have kids therefore my time and feelings don't matter to you. I've given up even trying anymore. I have a life too even if you think it's meanlingless compared to yours.

  Well I have kids and I still get stood up, so I don't actually think they are saying that you don't matter because you don't have kids. Pretty sure we just have crappy friends

  Haha, very true! It stinks. I think that though, because I see them all the time on facebook hanging out with their friends who have kids. Why am I the one being bailed on all the time? I don't know, but I'm obviously etring bitter about it

  I have a coworker that coughs constantly. Like, to the point of choking and almost gagging. If she's not coughing, she's clearing her throat. Even when someone is standing at her desk talking to her, it's hack hack hack, gag.  This isn't new, it's been going on as long as I can remember. 
  
  It's gross, and annoying. I want to ask my boss to move my desk.

  This is the kind of thing that makes me wonder if having IRL friends is even worth it. One of my friends planned a huge weekend in the mountains and I wasn't invited for no real reason other than they didn't think I'd want to go. 

  
  

  Friends are the worst.

  I love the snow and want it to snow more. People think I'm insane for this.

  They really are. God, maybe it's me A few friends I've had for like15 years constantly leave me out of shit because I'm married and they think I won't want to or can't go. What happened to just being polite? Or do I just expect too much from people?
