Re: Say Anything part 27

  • I'm SO ready to go home!
    ~*~Jenn~*~
  • I got a FB message from this guy I know through my sister/cousins asking if we were coming to the wedding next weekend.  Thing is, we didn't get an invitation.  Everyone in my family did...we didn't.  I really didn't think it was a big deal.  We don't personally hang out, we live in Houston, etc. 

    I really really wanted to go!! But J already invited the ILs in and I have a feeling there will be hurt feelings on their side if we say "hey, thanks for coming, watch my kid and we're going to a wedding."  Plus, Cooper was pretty well pissed at me all day for leaving him last week and over the weekend. 

    But I still really wanted to go!  It will be a nice wedding, great band, good food and a lot of fun.  AND it is MY turn to drink and have DH drive home.  Ugh.

    College Station - Traditions club.  But these people don't do anything halfway.  So the nosey hotel person in me wants to see it.  It would have helped if we'd been invited to begin with!!!  :-)  I didn't tell him that though.

    I think your IL's having a little alone time with Cooper for part of the weekend would be ok ; )  It's not like it's far or you would be gone all weekend.

    Or J can stay home and I'll go with you  : P

    I just found out last night that a close family friend has Stage 4 breast cancer.  She has 3 boys (11, 2 and 1 years old), and she is only 37.  My family has known for over a month and no one bothered to tell me.  I really hate being so far away.  I am so sad for her and her family.  She has such a great attitude about it though.  She's an amazing person.

  • So I was reading my alumni magazine last night, apparently a guy I...ahem... knew in college is now a multi-Emmy winning director and producer of sports television programming.  You could knock me over with a feather.  I always figured him for a hard-drinking-middle-manager who cheats on his girlfriend. Big Smile Life is funny.   
    My big boy is bounding towards 3! Hoping to add a sibling. image Hipster dog is not impressed.

  • We made ice cream on Sunday and I may never ever have to walk into a Baskin Robbins again for nutty coconut.  Mine came out perfectly.  I'll also gain 20 pounds eating it Sad

    In my defense I gave half away

  • On another note, if Rick Perry declares he's running for president I'll puke up my good ice cream.
  • Was the BST Hater post DD'd??

    Is it his wedding?

    It was the groom that emailed me.  Cindy - I'd love to have you tag along!  Sounds like a plan.

    I think he probably intended on inviting us and forgot, or it got lost in the mail.  His FI is a piece of work and he and his family are doing everything.

    Remember the guy a few years ago that was dating the psycho who wouldn't meet him?  She was in the hospital and didn't want him to see her that way?  This is the guy.  He met this girl through my sisters bff and they both dated and now are getting married.  I'm sad because it is a rebound relationship for both of them (although he never really dated the other girl).  I don't know much about her, but I feel like he could do better.

  • I was pretty sure that Cooper was going to cry himself into throwing up today.  He started throwing a fit and wouldn't stop crying.  Full on standing in the middle of the room, screaming like a banshee.  I kept waiting on him to throw up as a result.  Finally I got fed up, grabbed him and put him in the crib.  Less than 5 min later her was out.

    I'm sure he's teething but that kid was a mess tonight.  He was just to PISSED. 

  • It is not even 8 am and I already know that I have to work an alcoholic beverage into my calories for today.  Except that I can't because my Apex (BodyBugg) account says that it's expired even though it's an automatic monthly renewal membership.

    Add to that the fact that I dropped and broke my electric griddle this morning, the AC at work is still freaking jacked up, and my groin muscle pain is back and hurts when I run and I'm all geared up for a craptastic Wednesday.

    I should just close my door now.

  • OMGOSH! The NKOTBSB concert is in a week and a half.  My tickets still haven't shipped!  If you ever have the opportunity to buy through Ground Control, DON'T! They suck!  All they will say is "we don't have them yet, as soon as we do, we'll ship them" HELLO PEOPLE!  Not happy with getting tickets 3 days before the concert.  :(

    Stuff like that seriously stresses me out.  Hope it all works out and they show up soon.

  • I'm throwing myself a pity party for myself.  My 9th failed cycle is in the books.  I'm calling my doctor today to see where to go from here.  She told me to come in after 6 months with no BFP, it's almost been 8.
