Random Wednesday Thoughts

On days like today, it makes me wish I had an actual office so I could close the door, listen to my music, and dance/move at liberty without people walking by seeing me. LOL  It'd at least make even the boring, mundane tasks less boring, and make the time go faster.

Re: Random Wednesday Thoughts

  • I'm working from home in my bed.  I have the windows open and enjoying the nice breeze before it get's hotter than hell over the next few days.

    I'm getting burnt out/sick of work.  I really want to take time off and it doesn't look like it's possible until next month.  (Which DH is not able to take off of work).  At this point, I don't care, I'm taking it off.

  • I need to go back to school, like, yesterday.
  • I am in a really bad mood today and feeling very punchy. Like I really want to punch someone, anyone would do.
  • I almost (accidentally) killed my cat the other day. Black chair + black cat + a very uncoordinated, giant pregnant lady who didn't look before she sat down = an almost dead Jenny. When she closes her eyes she blends completely into the chair. That would have been soo upsetting and also embarassing.

    I'm sorry, but this made me nearly choke on my banana from laughing.  I doubt you would've killed Jenny, but at least she'd learn some manners like giving up your seat to a pregnant woman! LOL

    In a meeting yesterday, I found out the BJ Novak Doppelganger that works here will only work here for another two weeks.  I'm inexplicably sad to hear that, even if I don't work with him and have no clue what he does here.  It just cracks me up every time I see him in the hallways.  Sadly, no one I work with knows who BJ Novak is. Sad

    With the velocity I was attempting to sit down at plus my size I may have actually killed her, or at least made her "special" for the rest of her life.

    I love BJ Novak, he went to high school in MA, so we are practically BFF's!

  • I am sooo sick of my office manager making comments like "just wait and see", etc about when my baby comes. Ummm I know my life is going to completely change AND you have no children so WTF do you know?

     

    MH and I had the following conversation this morning, I'm not even joking.

    Me: I need to get this baby out

    Him: What if you jumped up and down?

    Me: Ummmm what would that do?

    Him: I don't know, one of the girls on 16 and pregnant did it

    Me: Maybe we shouldn't be taking medical advice from 16 and pregnant

    Him: So does that mean that you won't make me watch it with you anymore?

    Me: I didn't say that

  • I tired the jumping up and down thing a week before my scheduled c/s. It didn't work. I was watching our friends band and dancing up a storm and jumping up and down. I really wanted to go into labor on my own. I knew that it wouldn't work but I thought it couldn't hurt. All it did was make me pee a little. So don't waste your energy or your clean underwear Stick out tongue

     

    I don't think I have any random thoughts. I am too tired right now to think. We drove 2 1/2hrs last night to go to my nieces 8th grade graduation for 2hrs then turned around and drove back home. I think the girls did better with it than I did.

  • My uncle friended me on facebook, I don't want to accept it. I unfriended my dad a few months ago because he was annoying me (facebook wise) so I feel like I can't not be friends with my dad but be friends with his twin bother. Plus I feel like since they are twins they will have similar facebook behavior patterns.

    It appears I have a lot of random thoughts today. Or I just really don't want to work. Maybe a little from column A, alittle from column B

    Good to know! I have gone this long without peeing myself, I don't want to start now!

    Um... one of them also drove over speedbumps (the funniest looking ones, too!)  She went into labor like 12 hours later, but hey... she was full term, so who's to say that's what jump-started them, you know?

    Didn't someone say something about your pedicure? There's a spot they have to be careful of?  This may call for another pedicure. LOL

  • I, like Jo, must have a lot of random thoughts today, too.

    I find myself truly disappointed when I hear a song and thing the singer must be hot because his song is sexy... and then he turns out to be less than really attractive.

    Semi-related, I hate that LL Cool J is really hot, but I'm not a huge fan of most of his songs.

    (Sorry, I'm totally killing time with the Classic Hip Hop Pandora station. LOL)

  • I feel like my eyes are completely unattached in my head and rolling around like marbles...

  • Because I'm totally nosy like that, I sometimes will Google or Facebook search CWs in other offices.  I've never met probably 75% or more of the people I interact with on a daily basis, and likely never will meet them, but it's nice to put a face with the name/voice.

    I fully acknowledge that makes me a little creepy.

  • I feel super snarky today.

    Ive been looking at wedding rings online. I really want a new one and i still cant wear mine :(

  • DH is having a "surgical" procedure done tomorrow and I'm afraid he is going to call me and tell me all about it.  (It's nothing huge, it's just that he knows how to gross me out and he'll take advantage of it).

    I wish I could play hooky from work.  I have too much to do but I'm not the least bit motivated to finish any of it.

  • I'm surprised more of you can't drive stick shifts...I loved my stick shift until I got stuck in construction on the interstate in NC on my way home from the beach.  Stopping and starting for 90 mins is very frustrating in a stick!

    I need to go back to school, like, yesterday.

    You really should try to if you want to go back.  I told myself back in 06 when I graduated that I was going to go back in a year once I had a little break and here I am 4 years later and finally getting ready to go back.  I start in August and am super excited!

    I got an upgraded engagment ring in August and then got pregnant in September and then out grew it alittle after that. I feel like after the baby plus summer heat = swelling. I really want to be able to wear that ring again!
