Re: only thursday
Morning. Also exhausted. Stayed up late reading and would rather be in bed doing just that as opposed to pretending to work.
Kickball started last night. I was a super duper good girl and didn't drink a single drop of beer. How you ask? I have no idea. I put beer in my cup as per league rules, but it was just for show. During socials, I raised my glass and put it back down. Depressing. But I'm already down 3 lbs. Not depressing. I'm determined to not be a fat asss in Vegas.
DH is super cranky. Trying to sell tortilla route and buy a FedEx one. Very delicate balance of contracts, etc and he's thinking he might get stiffed. He's been a poop-head for 2 days now. Enough already.
hello!
Thank god it thursday! I'm exhausted!
Had to tell my close friends last night about being KU'd. it was a friend's b-day (i think i mentioned that yesterday maybe) and i was planning on going. well, come 3 pm yesterday I was dry heaving something fierce. Didn't feel like trying to drive to my friends house (pontenially puking in my car) and put on a straight face. So I told them what was going on, and that I was going straight home instead of hanging out.
despite my pukiness, weds. is one of my favorite nights because Extreme Couponing is on tv and that show rocks. I get all excited and motivated when I watch that! now if I just had a store that would double coupons like their's do, I would be set!
I had a horrible night and kept tossing and turning in bed. But I'm SO glad the humidity has broken!
On a side note, I'm so happy to find my eyedrops haven't expired yet. My eyes have been hurting/burning for the past few days. I think because of allergies. It just makes me want to go to sleep.
I'm so glad it's Thursday. I'm scheduling a massage for Saturday morning. I can't decide between a 2-hr regular massage, or a 90 min hot stone massage.
We had trivia last night and as a whole the night failed. We did really poorly in trivia and all I wanted to eat for dinner was meatballs or breakfast. Well Beefs does not sell either of them so that made me very sad. Besides that it really wasn't that bad.
Tonight I will be doing dishes inless my friend calls me and say her cousin is pitching againest the philly's minor league team here in florida then I will go to the game with her.
I had one on our honeymoon and it was HEAVEN! I have been dying to get one again since.

I just want a massage!
Last night was alright. Went to Toby's softball game, came home ate like a college kid because we haven't been grocery shopping in 2 weeks and then I went for a run.
I am wearing a skirt today regardless of my legs being white and not a thin as I would like because one of the ladies in here is on crack and is wearing a sweater and pants on a 75 degree day. The a/c will go on later and I don't give a rats arse.
Tonight is grocery shopping and Candyland.
Xtine - I have had several and aside from the one where the stones were too hot, I loved them!
There's this massage place that has memberships, like a gym. I haven't been able to go in forever, because I moved, but I've got a bunch of "free" sessions I'd like to at least TRY to use before I cancel it. Why pay a stranger, when my sister is now certified?
I could totally go for a massage as well. I would really love for a nice accupressure foot massage that could possibly start some contractions! 13 more days!
I have to go out again today to see if I can find a birthday present for MIL. While I am at it, I really should get the rest of the Father's Day gifts for our dads..bah!
On a happy note, the heat finally broke here in South Jersey and it is a beautiful 80 degrees and breezy. Finally.. the 95-100 was a killer.
Cannot wait for the weekend. BabyQ was super cranky yesterday which made SusieQ super cranky too. Mr Q came home from work, worked on his shed for a couple hours then took the baby so I could get out of the house. My excitement? Wandering the grocery store. I ended up buying potato chips, dip, a box of cookies and Choc PB Cup Ice Cream. Healthy eating FAIL.
So happy the humidity has broken here. It is gorgeous outside. Will actually enjoy our walk this afternoon since I won't be a gross sweat ball 5 minutes into it. And, printed paperwork to get more of my maternity leave paid by the state of NJ. Yeah, they suck sometimes, but not in this case *fingers crossed*
Today is......freakin hot! We should hit triple digits by 2pm. I am going to the pool today when I get off! I had the day off yesterday because my boss told me not to come in because he had to give a guy here some bad news and he didn't know how he would react. So I got a paid day off yestrday. And then today he said leave whenever you want, everyone else is. Because the other guy in the office (who recieved the bad news) stuff is totally gone in his office except his like 500 dollar office chair, and we have no idea if this means he will be coming back or what. And then roomate is cooking chicken fajitas for dinner tonight and she made BLT's last night. I love not having to cook!
I slept pretty good last night and even my cat, Nacho, was cuddling with me when I woke up. I think whatever virus and fever he had last week is long gone, wish the vet bill was gone though!
And more June gloom is in my neck of the woods, ugh, enough rain already.
IUI #1 10/12/11 (Bravelle + HCG + Prometrium & acupuncture) = 10/26 BFP! Beta #1=250, Beta #2= 615. 1st u/s 11/8.

I wish I had time to get drunk tonight.

My boss just pulled me aside to tell me people had complained about my attitude. My attitude has been crappy because we've been trying to finish 6 episodes in 4 weeks (normally it's 1/wk). And there was a special project thrown in there, and they tried to throw in some excerpts. So, yeah, I've been a little too busy to play nice all the time.
The good thing is, my boss has not noticed any change in my attitude, and loves me. She just felt "compelled" to talk to me since it was more than one person who mentioned it.
**that's the closest icon I could find to an eyeroll in 10 seconds**
Em I would be pisseed! Because you don't have time to sit around and ask how their Sunday brunch was you are the bad guy? Nope you were being a good employee and doing your job. BTW you did pick the eyeroll :-)
Jessie - I was! I have a feeling I know at least one of the people who complained. She has had the bad luck lately of asking for stuff while I'm juggling 3 projects (I only have resources to handle 2 at a time), and instead of saying "hello, what can I do for you?" I said "what do you need?". But that was 3 weeks ago.
Of course, my boss won't say (which I can respect, since if I had a complaint I'd want my name kept out of it). I spent many years working for someone who believed if you had a problem with someone, you should confront them first, so I wish they had done that. Again, at least my boss doesn't have an issue with me. But I've been doing a LOT of eyerolling lately.
