I don't want to go to work today. I am tired of answering the same question for my staff over and over. I have a pile of things on my desk to do; do you really think I have to time explain for the 15 hundreth time that our checks hit our accounts on the 30th? Really.
Just on the whole: people aggravate me. Why don't people return calls?
Re: Friday confessions...go
I confess that I have become a much meaner driver than I usually am in the last few weeks. I don't know what it is, but people's inability to move anywhere efficiently makes me want to hit them in the face. So lately I've noticed more tailgating and shouting on my part. I either need to chill out or the rest of the population needs to take driver's ed again. I would rather it be the latter, but I'll probably have to settle for the former.
I further confess that I've been gorging myself on jelly beans this week. I finally got so frustrated with my lack of restraint that I threw them all away. I did much better with one serving of ice cream, rather than "just a few more jelly beans" all night.

I confess I'm a lil disappointed in my own mamacita. She LOVES my dogs and wants a french bulldog so bad. I keep telling her to go with the french bulldog rescue and she has applied for a few dogs and never gets them (100s of people apply for just one of their dogs). So, she has decided to go with a breeder. I checked out their website and I dunno....they seem like the typical backyard breeder.
As you all know, I am so afraid and resentful of breeders. They are the shadiest people ever and I am freaking out a little. She wants me to go with her to the breeders home when I come and visit and I am afraid I might just break out into tears or go nuts on them if I see shady stuff going on.

I confess that I dont want to be at work. I have soo much to do just no motivation to do it.
I confess that after shopping for pants last night that I am very disgusted with myself. How did I left myself gain weight. I was doing great and then after the wedding it all when downhill. Back to getting serious about losing weight.
I confess that I just want to skip April and May. These months contain: my birthday, my BIL's birthday, Easter, two weddings, a first communion, mother's day, dance recital, and renovations on my FIL/MIL's house that DH doesn't want to put off until the summer. Add on top of that each of us having full time jobs and my schooling, and frankly, I don't even want to think about surviving....
I confess that we're going to my nephew's high school graduation in KY in June. I confess that his graduation ceremony is on a TUESDAY. Who does that? Don't schools know people come from out of town for these things? That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard in my life.
I confess that I'm sitting at my desk with my pants unbuttoned right now because I'm so bloated it is uncomfortable.
I confess that it took all my willpower not to call in sick this morning...especially since I have hardly anything to do at work today.
I confess that I am so sick of waiting for the office I'm transferring to to get its act together...I've been waiting since November! They didn't have the job posted until February, now they are interviewing candidates for the other 2 positions they have open, and they want us all to start at the same time. That is fine, but my boss has had me train the rest of my team on the things I do every day, and is having them do them while I"m here to answer questions. I'm bored out of my mind!

I confess I really want to start taking down the wall between my kitchen and dining room and get my remodel started. Unfortunately that would make a giant mess that I have nowhere to put until it is really time for construction since we need a dumpster. I'm sick of my gross kitchen and am ready for bright shiny pretty kitchen!
I confess that last night I totally laid into DH about the fact that I work 2 jobs and am insanely jealous of his ability to just go home at the end of the day and put on comfy clothes and play his stupid playstation (that I'm starting to resent giving the OK to get). When I get home, I have to look at him all comfy and relaxed and know full well that it hasn't occurred to him to wash the dishes in the sink or do some laundry or whatever other household task needs attention. He knows it bothers me, it is probably the #1 thing that we fight about, yet he never does better and looks at me all surprised when I snap. Yesterday a.m. he said, oh I'm getting low on boxers - but didn't do any wash. What am I, the laundry fairy?? Do it yourself!
Eew! Who acts like that? Maybe he needs to be reminded that we are all free-thinking adults and that no one else's behavior excuses him from his.
Tell me about it. You would think after medical school and graduate school that would help people grow up... apparently not.
I confess that even though I'm really excited DH got a fulltime position in a job he loves, it's third shift and I'm going to miss waking up in the morning and him being there
Okay, whine over!
I would prob give him a sucker punch for that. I cant stand when guys assume its the girls responsibility to get the cleaning done, esp when u work so much!! When it comes to cleaning, my DH does his own laundry. Some people look at me like im crazy when they find out, and they think I am a "mean wife," but he is the one who wants to do it. He says he doesnt like my folding skills lol
My Blog!
Really??? Why is that??? I'll quit my job if you quit yours....
I confess that I have been REALLY unmotivated to do anything all week. I've had to drag myself out of bed every morning, drag myself to work, drag myself to the gym... all while surpressing the urge to gorge on a huge pile of bad carbs.
I confess that I am slightly jealous of my little sister because she's got an internship in the city this summer and will be subletting an apartment downtown by herself. I never lived alone OR in the city.
I confess that last night's Grey's made me cry. :-P
This was the first epsiode that did not make me cry....but I ALWAYS usually cry when I watch Grey's...
I also confess that I wore my new trench coat today (got the black and white one). But I left the tags on it just in case I had second thoughts....and I haven't...
HAHA I shamelessly do the same things sometimes. Glad you liked it!
I totally lost it when the wife took the pills at the end and the husband admitted he was scared and climbed into bed with her. Also when, in the flashback, Dr. Hunt took his hand off his friend's wound.
I could not get over the fact that the dying patient was Darlene from Roseanne! It was SO sad, but it's Darlene! I almost cried when Dr. Hunt removed his hand....I had to look away and concentrate on something else for a moment....which usually never works but for some reason it did last night. I think it was the cough medicine and antibiotics...I felt kind of loopy... But boy did my mom cry!
