Borrrrrrring! Any confessions?
Mine's flameful:
Jack called the cat a "dumbshiit" today and I (involuntarily) laughed out loud.
Re: Borrrrrrring! Any confessions?
First, is it bad that I laughed at that instead of being like this
Here's mine:
I bought a semi-slutty halloween costume this year and I can't wait to wear it. I'm under my pre-pg weight and feel great. And I feel like this is the last year I could wear something like this.
I literally thought I might poop my pants at Target yesterday.
Last night Audrey said (out of no where, I swear) - "I gots small boobies."
I had a 2nd interview this morning at 730 am and it went freakin awesome. I told my boss I had to take my parents to the airport so I could come in late. I'm praying though that by Monday they tell me I get the job and I can quit this hell hole.
I stopped at McD's before returning to work and got a bagel and strawberry banana smoothie. I was in heaven.
DH is going out of town this weekend and I'm excited to snuggle with my dog while sleeping. I also plan to throw out some of his junk that is piling in the basement.
I think it is something to do with all the walking around in Target. I feel like 40% of the time I go there, I feel like I have to go the restroom during or right after being there. lol
That's nothing, J. Peyton's first cuss word was calling Moshe a douchebag....
I feel like I got kicked in the vag with steeltoed boots and I just want to sit around on an ice pack until, say, this kid is born.
Here's one that is against everything I stand for....since getting another round of IV fluids on Tuesday and finally being able to think about food, I can't stop thinking about how good a McDonalds bacon, egg, and cheese bagel sounds (so grosssssss) and so far I have stopped myself from having J pick me up one...but I can't promise it will last.
Are you one of those who can only poop at home? I am. (There's another confession.)
And, here's another: Last night, Jack was in the bathroom while I was peeing and he said, "Now do you gotta poop, Mom?" I said, "No, I usually poop in the morning after I have my coffee." (You're welcome for that.) He asked, "Coffee makes you poop?" I said, "Yep." (You're welcome again.) He replied, "Beer makes me poop."
WTF?! I swear we're not some crazed alcoholics, PLUS, I've been KU'd for 8 months; there has been no beer nor any talk of it. I swear dude's been here before or something.
No lie, K: If I had your bod, I'd walk around naked all day, so this is nuthin'.
Mine are more randoms:
I have the Warrior Dash this weekend and I'm probably going to die. LOL. My only motivation is the beer at the end.
I've watched the Sophia Grace "Super Bass" video a million times. That little girl is adorable.
I want to give up everything in my professional life and simply bake. I'm happiest when I've got flour on my face and loud music playing while I make pretty food which in turn makes other people happy. It breaks my heart to know this will never be my life.
If I ever could open a bakery, I would pair it with a brewpub. Because homebrewing is a new passion of mine. BF and I made hard cider Tuesday night. It will be ready around Thanksgiving. I can't wait. We made IPA about a month ago, and it's freaking awesome. I love that he puts me as the "assistant brewmaster" on our work sheets. I'm a nerd.
I heard "Faithfully" by Journey a little while ago and then remembered that was the first slow song BF and I danced too and I got all misty eyed. I'm still trying to allow myself to be completely happy and unafraid to open up again. It's hard, but that obviously was a little glimmer.
I bawled while watching Transformers: Dark of the Moon last night. I have cried watching all three of those damn movies. I have a huge soft spot for alien robots. I wish I had my very own Bumblebee.
I swear I'm gonna keep this thread going if it kills me.
I totally jam to one of the songs on Curious George 2 and am now thinking of going searching for the MP3.
My BIL makes apple cider moonshine. It is good but it is called apple pie.
OK, but have you ever had their STEAK, egg & cheese bagel? It.is.so.good.
I had McD's for lunch after a particularly stressful morning yet you KNOW my azz is gonna be on here tomorrow, biitching that my kid now weighs 8 lbs.
Mmmmmm, apple pie! That's the best way to drink Everclear!
Hard apple cider is actually very easy to make. We bought local made cider and local clover honey. I can't wait to taste it.
My boys regularly tell eachother to stick their heads by the other ones butt so they can fart in eachothers faces and then laugh.
I have a serious shopping addiction. I've gotten four packages from Amazon and one from Old Navy this week....in my defense, two are gifts, ones going back and the other a Halloween costume for C, so not all for me.
I get in trouble when I drink at the My Way and have these. DH and I made them once at home with another couple for a Super Bowl game. We drank the whole pitcher ourselves
I don't eat anything with the word steak in it....
You will likely get a text from me by the end of the weekend--maybe even a picture with my bagel.
I have the Warrior Dash this weekend and I'm probably going to die. LOL. My only motivation is the beer at the end.
Are you doing the St. Louis one? My DH did KC and his next goal is the Tough Mudder since its suppose to come to Omaha next year....my goal is Warrior Dash next summer but not the KC course since it was pretty ridiculous from what other runners have said comparing
I bawled while watching Transformers: Dark of the Moon last night. I have cried watching all three of those damn movies. I have a huge soft spot for alien robots. I wish I had my very own Bumblebee.
I cried during this movie too!! I was so sad for a little bitI can't drink much IPA, J. But BF loves it. He loves all that strong, bitter, strange beer stuff. I had a pumpkin ale Tuesday night that was so frickin' good.
And don't tell me for one second you wouldn't love a hotass yellow camaro to follow you around, protecting you and stuff. Because that would rule.
Umm I ate a bacon/egg/cheese bagel and large Dr. Pepper yesterday morning for breakfast (it is my comfort go to food in the morning/BEST HANGOVER CURE ever!!!) Also...since we have touched on the subject it makes me go number 2 when I really feel like I need to clean the system out LOL
*p.s. have you ever had their cinnamelts?! omg amazing little monkey bread goodness
Yep, my Warrior Dash is in STL. I've "trained"...I guess. But, I've heard from quite a few people that it's sort of a joke. Like, some people take it pretty seriously, while others run it drunk as skunks.
I plan on being a happy medium.
This statement may have just made me blow my cover at work to look like I am working because I LOL'd.
I really feel like punching someone in the face- no real reason but people are just on my nerves in general.
I ate Mc Donalds Chicken Nuggets for lunch and it was awesome.
I threw a temper tantrum on Tuesday Night because DH wanted to clean his office before setting up the new wireless router and I didn't feel like I should have to help clean his hell hole. I JUST WANTED TO GET MY INTERNET FIX.
Laugh all you want, people...but someday I will have my very own Autobot and you'll all want to see him.
Seriously, the second movie...I saw it in the theatre, <<<SPOILER ALERT>>> and when Optimus died, I was sobbing. Full on sobbing. People were looking at me like I was crazy.
Sorry I have feelings and YOU DON'T!
I am pretty sure my DH was wanting to move away from me...I too have empathy for humans with robots who are protecting him from nasty aliens.
WD is def a mix of the drunks and serious runners...if you are running earlier in the morning it will be more serious and get worse as the day goes on. As I watched others "run" it, I realized even with very little training I probably could have attempted it as I at least look like I could run more than a mile (even if I probably cannot with walking a bit LOL)
I think this is true. The bathroom at Target ALWAYS smells like poop.

Mine:
I would seriously PAY someone to write these next 2 OT papers. I am going to DIE.
There is a post on MM asking if you would be a hooker for $2500 an hour. I voted yes. I am not sayin' I would put in a full 8hrs or "work" 5 days a week, but hell yea, it would be some sweet ass extra money.

I did this too. I think my DH was horrified to be sitting next to me.
My child will be 9 months tomorrow and 1. I still have her crib bumper on the bed, 2. I have not lowered the mattress & 3. We still get up 1-2-3 times a night to nurse. Kid is gonna be 16 and still nursing at night at the rate we are going.
DH's family is all coming over tonight and I am so not excited about it. I would like just 1 night of us all being home without some one coming over, us going somewhere or having something going on.
Lastly, I realized today after a trip to the grocery store that my deep freeze is so full of milk that I have no room for the killer deals I get on groceries.
I really love Words with Friends, but I am starting to get cocky. Only two people have beaten me, and I often win by a lot. Think that's why people only play me once and quit me?
I really want dbag to go to jail. I think that would help out my case that DH should get court approval to adopt him. Since I was so frustrated with child support enforcement the other day, I sent dbag another email telling him to man up, get a job, and do something with his life.
