  • I don't know what a Tim Horton's is. But now I want a Tom Collins.
  • I have a "friend" (I am loathe to call her that) who alternates between overemployed-- where her statuses are either "HOW CAN THEY EXPECT ME TO WORK ALL OF THESE HOURS! I AM JUST ONE PERSON!" and "Mmm, slept til noon, now time to bake cookies!" and underemployed-- with alternating statuses of "I am so depressed because I don't have enough to fill my days with" and "Didn't get the job I interviewed for last week and they reposted it already. Don't they know they NEED ME?"

    Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
  • But would you pick 3 weeks pretty much every month for six plus months over one week in like 20 years?

  • I must be dumb, but I'm not understanding the one week/three week discussion.  I don't think I'd enjoy being a sahm - it definitely seems tougher to me than sitting at a desk.  My sister is having a really hard time with it.

    I thought I was the only one who wasn't following it.  I felt like I was deciphering an LSAT logic problem.

    Ha!! I was definitely feeling the "if two trains leave the station at the same time going different speeds"...

    Math is hard, yo!

  • Nerds. 

    The 1 week/3 week thing came from my original post that I had mention in a FB status update that I missed Tony since he had been gone for three weeks.  Crazy Neighbor said her H might have to travel for one week in december and leave her all alone with her 4 year old and that was way worse than Tony being gone for 3 weeks. 

    Don't get me wrong Tony is gone for weeks at a time or just comes home for 24 hours all the time, it's totally normal for us but I do miss him and it's ok for me to say that without the crazy asss biotch across the street try to one up me.

    Holy shiit me too. It felt like that scene in The Jerk where Steve Martin is explaining to Bernadette Peters how long it felt like they had been dating.

    When people say shiit like that, I just want to respond with something like, "well, I am sorry you feel so burdened by the life you have chosen for yourself." Did she not choose to have kids? Did she not choose to stay at home with them? She needs to quit being a martyr and get over herself.
