    realtors should know the difference between "sale" and "sell."

    yes, i'm a grammar nazi.  even though i can't seem to capitalize anything.  but at least i'm not trying to sale something.  *headdesk*

    I need a vacation.

    Work stuff was swimming around in my head this morning so guess what I (apparently) did?  Left without locking the front door.  We got a call from a neighbor who said our dog was out front.  Since I know she was inside when I left this morning (not in the backyard) DH and I freaked out that our house had been broken into.  He rushed home to find nothing out of place. 

    Oh yeah - the neighbor peeked in (with her dog in tow in case there were burglars) and said that unless someone broke in and left a lot of folded laundry all over the couch in the living room, nothing looked disturbed and the back door was locked.

    Embarrassed

    I apologized profusely to DH for leaving the door unlocked, making him rush home to see if we'd been robbed, etc.  I said I didn't know wtf was wrong with me lately.

    Know what he said?

    "You're human.  Everyone makes mistakes now and then."

    I love that guy.

    I think your dog grew some opposable thumbs overnight!  lol.

    She was quite proud of herself for going outside but not going too far!

    And actually she was nosing at the door this morning - our door doesn't close super securely if it's not locked so I am not curious if she just knocked the lock over by jumping at the door.  More likely that I left it unlocked and the wind blew it open.  But if she CAN do that, we are going to have problems!

    I am bummed I missed the GNO.  Yes, I was in Key West and it was lovely, but we were at the wedding where we ONLY knew the bride and groom.  Nice, but kinda boring.  One couple next to us at our table seemed to be in a huge fight all night.  Awk-ward....

    There was one couple where the wife was taaaaalllll.  Like easily over 6'2".  She was obsessed with Emily.  Like at a creepy level.  Her DH was about 6 inches shorter than her and had a full-on, styled with wax handlebar moustache with curlicues at the ends.  He was definitely under 30, so apparently tyring to be a hipster.  On Friday night at the RD/OOT dinner (which, BTW was the ENTIRE Margaritaville restaurant on Key West rented out from 7-10pm on a Friday night-$$$$$$) creepy wife, who was known as Mrs. Handlebar, kept bringing hipster DH over to Emily to convince him to have a baby.  Good times.

  • Tomorrow we are taking G to see Cars 2. I'm 100% certain that he is going to pass out from sheer excitement. He's transfixed by the commercials that are on every 19 seconds, I can't imagine what will happen when we're in a theater for more than an hour.

    I, on the other hand, will have my flask handy.

  • I'm tired.  And grouchy.  I haven't slept well since before my last trip to Austin - the first week of June.  Meaning I'm really effing tired and really effing grouchy.  And I really effing wish I could sleep in this weekend and just get one good nights sleep to feel human again.

    I'm kinda hoping that this little vent will help turn my attitude around before the weekend...

  • My anxiety is in overdrive today.  I want to scream.

    Administrative Project Coordinator was my current role in the Commercial Real Estate Industry. For the past 9 years I have held various positions within this industry.  I have a BA in English.  My experience and job duties are not limited to real estate; many of these are every day functions for any business. 

    Any help is greatly appreciated.  I am open and ready to accept the challenge to make a career for myself!

  • We're on the last month of our measured use electric plan, and I'm pretty sure that this month's outrageous bill will negate all the money we saved all year by religiously bumping our thermostat up between 4 and 6 pm on weekdays. The second floor of our new house just gets too hot!

    Oh, and I spent $25 on a glider & ottoman today at a resale shop for the potential second child that we haven't even tried to make yet. Everything in this one booth was 1/2 off, and it was impossible to pass up. I just need to figure out how to make a new cushion for it because it's too big to fit in the washer (I'm afraid it would fall apart if it could).

    Busy Bee. It's a place right around the corner from us on N. Shepherd. It was the only one there, but they had a lot of interesting pieces of furniture at what seemed to be reasonable prices if you like projects.  Lots of junk too. It's only open thurs-sunday.
