Friday Confession

I confess that I really really really really REALLY want to go out and enjoy all the clothing sales that are going on right now, but really really REALLY don't have the money to do so.  Bah Humbug.

Re: Friday Confession

  • I confess that I will be absolutely crushed if SIL and I cant get our concert tickets that go on sale tomorrow even though we really don't have the money for them.

  • I confess that I really need to get off my butt and start cleaning out the guestroom. We have company coming on Tuesday and so far the guestroom has been the catch-all for everything and is a mess. I also confess that I REALLY don't want to go clean it out, everything that got thrown in there has no home and I don't know what to do with it all!
  • Can we have more than one confession? If so I confess that I absolutely can't stand my job right now and even though it is only 10:20 and even though I majorly regretted getting drunk last weekend I'm thinking that a drink sounds pretty good right now.

  • I confess that my coworker is getting on my last nerve. I feel bad for her because she doesn't really have many friends in the area (ok...any really), but I also don't want to be her friend out of pity. She just moved to the same city I live in (suburb of DC) from the other side of the metro area and now I feel like I can't get away from her! We leave at the same time so end up commuting home together every night on the train (which has always been MY time...SO frustrating, I feel like I have to sit with her/talk to her), and she doesn't drive but needs stuff for her new place and is always whining to me about it so I feel like I HAVE to take her places...and I can't get away from her at work because we are a team of 5 people and our cubes are right next to eachother.

    I just need some freaking space! 

  • I confess that I was supposed to be working on a case study for one of my grad. classes all semester and I am just starting it now and it is due in just over a week....woops! Between wedding things and holidays....just haven't wanted to do it!

  • I confess that we made 4 "blind" offers on houses yesterday.  And when I say blind, I mean that we have not seeing the property except for photos on MLS.  I am scared to be doing this but my realtor assured me that we have 3 days after our offer is accepted to back out and that she will be delivering that news for us.  If someone did that to me, I would be pissed.  I feel awful about it but there is no way to compete unless you put an offer out on the house the day it gets on the market!  Tongue Tied

  • I confess that my husband just lost his job and we don't really know how we are going to make ends meet for the next few months until my job start full time.

     I'm so sorry to hear this, Karibeth.  My thoughts are with you both!

  • :(

    I'm sorry to hear that Karibeth. If it's any consolation, there are a lot of holiday temp jobs out there... even if it's just at Kohls or Penneys, or something... It may not be his field, but when it comes to money, you do what you have to, right?

    I'll keep you and your DH in my prayers.  

  • Karibeth - sorry to hear about the lost job. Last year DH was unemployed during the holidays and he found that the job ads really picked up in January. GL to both of you..You'll get through it. . . . . . . . . . I confess I've gained about 12 pounds in the last 6 mths and I'm just hoping I get some motivation to lose it (plus a few more) after the holidays...cuz right now I'm not even trying!!

  • i confess that i have NO money since i have no job and I am putting all my xmas presents on a credit card. Then, dh has the nerve to tell me he wants a 47" flatscreen tv. I was actually gonna get it and I went to best buy today and chickened out. I dont have any money!!!

    On the flipside, I just got a call from a school and looks like i will start sometime next week!

  • I confess that I have a list of ideas for Halloween costumes next year (all will be homemade and awesomeness).

    I. Am. Lazy.  So much to do, so very little motivation.  I'm finding it very hard to cut down on the clutter, the more clutter there is, the less I want to deal with it.

    I really enjoy the whole no job thing....eh, not so much.  It was nice the first couple of months, got kind of board the next few, then it was the month before the wedding, and now I just do nothing.

    Finally, I bought Ben and Jerry's limited batch of Pumpkin Cheesecake and well I was going to share....

  • I confess that I'm glad I'm not the only jobless bum on this board! : )

    I confess that we still have wedding clutter all over our house and I want to organize it, but it overwhelms me. So I distract myself with you guys. Luckily I will be selling a couple things this weekend, but unfortunately they are small items.

    I confess that I'm heading in a new direction career-wise and it both excites and terrifies me. I confess that I hope I have the guts to go through with it, and that it ends up being something I love.

    I confess that my weight has held since the wedding- no losing but no gaining either. My mom, however, has continued to lose weight and I'm jealous that she now weighs less than I do. The other day she was wearing an old pair of pants that were mine- from high school!

  • I confess I just spent the last hour looking for airfare deals instead of doing work.

  • I confess that if I listen to my sick again co-worker 3 cubes down snort back snot one more time I might freaking lose it.  Get a tissue and blow for heaven's sake.  And when you're done with that - go home!  I don't want whatever you got.
  • I confess that I am 99.9% positive my BFFs new relationship isn't going to work out.  I can't tell her I think that, it would really hurt her.  She's a very fragile person and it's going to crush her if it lasts more than a couple months then ends.  They haven't broken up yet and I already feel really bad for her.
  • I confess that I am on day 2 of Zero Motivation. Maybe it's because I told my boss the other day that I am likely moving to Cali in June? Dunno, but it's gonna be a LONG 6 months if work feels this torturous until then!

    Surprise! The Sequel is due 12.8.14!

  • Witty.... are you sitting next to me? Sad

    Jlk you will totally succeed I just know it!!!! Wink

    I confess that I am getting a bit buzzed from my cold medicine and probably shouldn't be driving.  Talk about rapid eye movement....

    I confess that when I got my dad's christmas card yesterday and saw thathis girlfriend didn't sign it this year I became very pissed.  Even though I swear up and down that I don't care....I do.  She wrote the address all fancy and put stickers all over it, why can't she just get over herself and sign it???

    I confess that I still feel sick as crap yet I am at work and I have to work tomorrow for saturday registration.  I am not contagious (thank you antibiotics) but I need the money to have some kind of xmas this year and help pay the mortgage.  Money sucks...

  • Nope - not sitting by you!  ;)  Hope you feel better soon.  Just don't share with your co-workers.  Mine has been giving a blow by blow (hehe)  commentary on the color of things coming out.  So gross!
