I have eaten so much fudge today that I may actually have a brown tinge to my skin.

I have an entire day tomorrow to myself, and I am giddy with anticipation.

Re: Randoms

  • There is a firetruck in the street in front of a house a couple of doors down. They are looking at the house and walking around it. When I went to clean the vom out of my car, I stared and then they stared back. but their stares look suspicious.
  • I'm home sick today, boo. I started feeling kind of run down when I was out shopping yesterday and got worse as the afternoon went on. Ended up with wicked bad chills and a fever. No fever today, just feeling blah. Someone tell me what is wrong with me, I'm puzzled.

  • I'm making a cranberry pork roast today and the ressypee calls for 1/2 a cup of sugar and 1/2 a cup of brown sugar.  Does that seem like an excessive amount of sugar for a non baked good?  I'm afraid my dinner is going to give me cavities.

    I bought condoms today. I felt like a sailor.

  • I keep wanting to reply to posts but the nest is sucking. So Kay and Winged, I'm sorry for your respective sads. :(

    Keebler Almond Crescent cookies are delicious. I always forget how much I love almond things.

    My mom's crackhead neighbors are thisclose to being evicted after two court dates and my mom's so afraid of further retaliation that she's not leaving the house for Christmas and it makes me so angry and sad. Fvck those fvckers.

  • Are you using fresh cranberries Cali? I made that this wekeend and used a can of cranberries since I couldn't find fresh. I did not add any sugar and it turned out awesome.

  • I'm trying to decide if I should invite my in-laws to Christmas....We are watching their dog and due to schedule changes they have to come and get her now..... I believe this was all a ploy to be here at Christmas even though I made it clear I didn't want them here. 

    So do I

    A) invite them in an attempt to let them start fresh, behave and enjoy themselves knowing full well MIL will be a b!tch, cause a fight etc. ONLY to be able to say to H "There I tried for you one last time, and now I'm done!"

    B) Ignore the fact that they will probably show up Christmas eve expecting to be invited to my grandmothers and simply not invite them or change my plans to accomodate them.

     

  • Cali, Is the sugar for a glaze? Also, please provide a recipe if you have one because that sounds yummy. I'll wait to hear back after your next dental appointment until I make it.

    . Yesterday I woke up craving cold veggie pizza (with the ranch/cream cheese base, crescent rolls and veggies) so I made it around noon. I have consumed it for every meal since then (and I'm the only one that eats it). It is almost gone and I am a little disgusted with myself. But not enough to stop eating it.

  • Honestly, I'd probably do A but I'm always trying to be the peacemaker and I get caught up in holiday spirit and expect people to change.

    So weird. I didn't want to take any chances getting anyone at work sick right before Christmas. And hey, a Monday on the couch in my PJs and occasionally wrapping presents isn't too bad.

    Maybe you should ask if they'll use their firehouse to clean up the vomit.

    When CaptainSerious makes a new post, I always think it's Cali.  Now, when I read Cali's replies to posts I think it's Moo.

  • It's this ressypee: http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/2009/02/crockpot-cranberry-pork-roast.html

    I used the fresh.  For some reason, in the copy I printed out it didn't give the option of just using a can of cranberry sauce instead.  I would have preferred that to the fresh because now I have a bunch of fresh cranberries I don't know what to do with.

  • Jen, how long has your MIL been a bittch to you? I would probably go with B because this year I am on "no one else is ruining my holiday" kick. We did not invite my drug/alcohol addict BIL to our Christmas Eve dinner this year because it is awful for everyone every year and I did not want to spend my holiday on pins and needles waiting for a fight to happen or just be generally uncomfortable in my own home.

  • After I made it known that it hurt my feewings about my brother and I not being invited to Christmas with the grandparents, they made a fuss over it and re-scheduled.  And now I kind of don't want to go because it's NYE and they were kind of mean about it.  I'm whiny and never ever satisfied.

    I think I'm at the beginning of the sickness you guys are having.  My SIL was getting over it this weekend and I'm starting to feel stuffy and I have that big scratchy ball forming in my throat.  Ugh.  I hope you both feel better with a quickness.

  • While putting together the Dora powerwheels jeep wrangler that "santa" is delivering to Liza for x'mas, it occurred to me that she's going to want to outside all freakin day to ride the thing and I'm going to have to sit out there and watch her.  And when she gets home in the afternoons she's going to want to ride it and she's going to throw a sh*t fit when I tell her "No."  Goddamnyou Santa.

  • I'll probably call in sick tomorrow.  i came in against my better judgement today and got little done except get in a fight with my dad about what days we're taking off for holidays.

    Andy is fine with storing the bike and getting a tricycle for Lila

    My mom made me her melt in your mouth shortbread and now i feel bad for calling her a freak even though i know she doesn't know I did.

  • I am home sick with RSV after a 4 day bout with the stomach bug last week. I am not happy and starting to get pissed with parents who bring their kids to school sick because they can't miss work.

  • I want fudge.  But I also want to lose the three lbs I gained already this month.  What to do, what to do...

    I got a bottle of wine from my work gift exchange last week and even though it was super cheap and crappy wine, I still really enjoyed it.  I think I need to start drinking more, because it makes me a happier person.
