Blerg.

1) After MUCH debate, we decided to turn the apartment down (he offered it to us on Saturday, saying we were a "better fit" than the "my kid sleeps in the closet" lady. HAHA.). I'm incredibly bummed about it, but we're not keen on plunking down $3K+ for deposit and moving costs right now. Plus the living room was way too tiny and we'd need different furniture, meaning spending MORE money. :-(

 

2) I started Kevin Kolb at QB yesterday. Biitch got a concussion and only got me 1.25 points! And my backup QB is out 4-6 weeks! Thankfully I was able to get Hasselbeck off waivers.

 

Anyway. I don't like Mondays.

Re: Blerg.

  • 1) Sorry, Bethie. That stinks, but that's a lotta dough to shell out for an apt. You'll find something!

    2) I have no clue what you are talking about.

  • The crazy woman at work has been gone for a week and it's been a delight, but she gets back today.  I'm not looking forward to having her perched on my shoulder every waking second asking me about her database in the most passive aggressive fashion imaginable.

  • 1) That's awesome that he offered it to you - sorry it's not what you're looking for right now.

    2)  My team sucked a@@ yesterday.  Only 33 yds from Andre Johnson and Ryan Grant going down in the 2nd quarter.

    What could possibly take 4 hours!? I've never heard of spouses/dependents having to go to a seminar. WTF.

  • Also, the state provides coverage for common law "spouses" but not same sex partners. How effed up is that?

  • My DH made changes to my team after I went to bed Saturday night and so when I looked at how I ended up I was ticked off. He moved Beanie Wells to starting and HE DIDNT EVEN FREAKING PLAY! I'm changing my password. Luckily I didn't do the worst so far and I have 2 that play tonight. I just blame Mr. Fozzy's poor decision making on my poor first showing.

    Oh that makes LOADS of sense.

    As far as I can tell it's for people who must have things read to them to understand.

  • I'm in an 8 hour meeting.  I'm guessing I'll be needed for about an hour total, but it's sprinkled throughout the day so I have to sit here at my desk and have my phone on mute the whole day, and listen until they mention something I'm involved in.  Of course today is when I have a ton of other things I actually need to be out of my office for.

    A 4 hour insurance seminar sounds like a nightmare.  At least you have internets?

  • Oh Fallin, that is miserable.  Bring your Kindle.  And be sure to write down all the stupid questions that get asked so you can reiterate them here for our amusement.

  • I have kindle and you guys. I don't think there will be dumb questions because these people can all read.

  • My car still stinks of the skunk we steamrolled on a pitch black country road in MiddleofNowhere Iowa on Friday night.  Yum.

    I hate meetings.  Of all kinds.

  • You beat the southie!

    I am crying for you fallin.

    I am dead beat today. We went to a rock festival all day yesterday. I called the babysitter at 9:30 to see if he was going down for the night and she said "oh, he's been asleep since 7". not.good.

    He woke up as we were walking in at midnight and was so excited to see us that he decided not to sleep much. I am the walking dead.

  • Twan offered to put off trying to have a kid if that meant I would be unpregnant and willing to to go Disney with him in January when he runs that marathon.

    So now I have to pick between getting knocked up and forgoing a four day home alone party to travel to Disney World.

    How about we never have kids and I set Disney World on fire in the middle of the night?  OK, so that won't happen.  But I don't know what to do.  Basically, it's less about being pg, and more about the fact that he wants me to go see him run this marathon.  I get that, but I was kind of pissed that he made these plans to run the marathon at Disney World in the first place.  I told him, it's like a destination wedding.  You want me to be there, but then there's this travel required and a whole lot of sitting around obligation for me in order to come support you.  Plus, I lose out on having the bed to myself for four nights.

    FUKC.  I have to go, right?

  • Are your diamond shoes also too tight and is your wallet too small for your $100s?

    It's not like he signed up for the Flint, MI Fun Run. Suck it up.

  • You'll get alone time in the hotel room while he's out running the marathon!  Just get one of those rooms with two beds in it and you can each sleep in one.  That way you get 4 days off without needing to pick up after yourself or cook.

  • Fent's "woe is me my husband loves me too much" act is getting old. We get it, you're a hard hearted biitch. :)

  • I have a real big problem -- I have a song stuck in my head that I only heard once.  Normally when this happens, I find whatever the song is on youtube and play it on repeat until the earworm dies.  I searched and searched trying to figure out the song title and artist and finally tracked it down -- except that was an advance release and I can't find it anywhere.  Pity me and my inability to receive instant gratification!!!

  • It's cute how hard Fent tries not to want a baby. But if you are serious about this. The probability of you getting knocked up before January isn't that great. I'd plays the odds and decline going to Disney.

  • Just get an IUD behind his back. If he feels the strings just tell him it's the demon inside you clawing it's way out. I am so wiped out today. Three days of parties kicked my ass. Now I want to kick my dog's ass for knocking over the trash again.
    image Ready to rumble.
  • You can't be pregnant and go to Disney in January?
  • Fallin, you're probably right.  I just hope there's no Southwest DING! on or after December 8th (probably when I'll end up bleeding).

    J&J, I'm using "I might be pregnant" to get out of several different trips in the next 12 months.  Plus, my friend who took a vacay in her first tri said it was miserable and she puked in the plane's bathroom the whole way.  So I'm avoiding in general.

    I am really resentful of this whole trip to begin with.  I think it's bullsh!t to spend $1000 to run a marathon when you can run one in your own city.  I never wanted him to do this to begin with, even if I didn't go.  And now I'm getting sucked into it.  It's not like this will be a vacation for me.  He's not going to want to drink or stay out late, so the best I can do will be to sit in the hotel room and read a book while he watches TV and rests.  At least at home we have multiple TVs and a DVR, plus a car so I can leave!
