Re: Flameless Friday
I'll start.
1. I am 99.9% sure the Tigers will lose tomorrow. With or without Tebow. If I were the betting kind, I'd totally put my money on the Gators.
2. I had to interview a guy yesterday for a school project and he was so effing hot, it took all I had to pay attention to what he was saying and not imagine him naked. He was tall, dark and had an accent. Need I say more?
3. I really, really, really want to get smashed this weekend.
I really dislike my brother. I love him because he's my sibling, but there are very few, if any, qualities that he posses that I like.
In the face with a banana cream pie?
I did like 80 crunches yesterday.
Then started off the day today with cinnamon rolls.
I have no willpower!
Only if it's loaded with rum.
And my brother also possesses very, very, very few qualities that I like. If I could sell him, I totally would.

2. My BFF chose her BFF to be the godmother of her child. They make a deal back when BFF got married that I could be the MOH if she could be Nanny. I am very upset and bitter about this deal that was made 5 years ago. In fact, I'm upset and bitter about their friendship, period.
3. I bought cookies last night when I went to the store to get milk. I planned on having 1/2 of one last night. When I found out our AC was out, I had 3.
4. Every time I see someone with the tags still on their clothing, I want to run up to them and cut them off.
5. I've slept on the couch for the past 2 nights. My excuses have been that I couldn't sleep and last night that it was too hot because the AC was out.

I usually don't play, but I was bad this morning, so let me confess.
DH spent $200 on 4 tickets to see my 9 yo stepdaughter in the Nutcracker. First of all, we are only 2 people and no one else has expressed any interest in going. And if someone does want to go, then they can get their own tickets. Or at least request that we get theirs. Does it really make sense to spend $100 on a hope that someone else may want to go?
Also, I cannot sit in the orchestra seats with a toddler. There is no chance of her making it through even the first song without needing to get up and dance. Babies don't sit still for long periods of time unless they are asleep. And I don't think it's reasonable to require it.
So...I cancelled the order without him knowing. I'll reorder, but only once we have decided what makes the most sense. I found out about it through the credit card statement.
I know this is supposed to be flame free, but if anyone thinks I am out of line, I'd like to hear it. This is a drop in the bucket of the whole situation, and sometimes I worry that I've lost my perspective.
My Sister Made the news this week well her face wasnt on it but she was involved in it and I am not at all happy about it at all she will be 17 next month.
I havent been posting lately b/c I have been having Morning sickness so bad that all I want to do when I get home is lay in bed after work and school.
I haven't done this in a while, so I have a lot
I lost 13.5 lbs. And then I went to New Orleans for the weekend... Last Saturday I had a piece of Shoe's !amazing! coconut cake, had dinner at JAlexanders, hot chocolate and beignets Sunday morning at Cafe du Monde, then chicken parm at Venicia's, then some crazy good Italian pastry and a cafe au lait, two Tequila sunrises at HOB, and then Rally's after the concert. I gained 5 freaking pounds back. EEP!!
There are days when I love love love my job, and there are other days when I want to gouge my eyes out. I know not every day will be good, but do half of my days have to be so bad?
I really want to go back to school. Like yesterday. But I'm afraid I'm going to be a slacker again. I feel like I have the motivation now, but I'm not sure how long it'll stick around.
I still never got my final paycheck from my last job. I know I need to put on my big girl panties and deal with it, but I really don't want to see/hear from/deal with my old boss EVER again and not seeing/hearing/from dealing with her just might be worth the $500 she owes me.
I started typing a Josh/wedding vent, but it was getting ridiculously long, so I think I'm going to update my blog instead.
I can't stand the woman I work with and yesterday I kind of snapped at her and I kind of feel guilty and I kind of don't. I think it was a long time coming. I just can't stand her talking to me like I'm one of the kids. I'm 26, not 3. I've been doing this for a long time (a lot longer than she has actually!) and I think I know what I'm doing.
Ok this one might get me in trouble and if y'all flame me I'll try not to cry. But. I don't like breast cancer awareness month. It really really frustrates me that all I hear about is breast cancer. There are a million other types of cancer that adults and children are dying from every day and I don't feel like they get any recognition. And I think skin cancer, not breast cancer, is the number one killer in women. I wish that it was just cancer awareness month or something where the proceeds that go to breast cancer research went to the ACS or something.
