I think candy corn is gross.

My left armpit sweats way more than my right.

    I can only have a few bites of candy corn at a time. It's just too much sugar or something.

    I don't get all of the Twilight hate. Yeah, they're pretty horrible and Bella is an awful role model, but good lord, it's just mindless entertainment/reading. I never emulated a character from a book/tv show/movie as a kid except when I played pretend, but that's completely normal. Raise your kid to have a decent head on its shoulders and reading about Bella Swan being a mindless relationship drone shouldn't hurt it. 

    I signed up for okcupid last night and then disabled my account this morning. It's still too much. Especially after a couple of old pervs 4 starred my profile. Yuck.

    Overall I had a good birthday but yesterday really sucked. I called my mom and cried like a baby. It helped.

    So we're doing Thanksgiving with my brother's girlfriend's family & I really don't want to fvcking go. I want to run my half that morning, get take out & just be by myself. Can I just pretend the holidays don't exist this year?

    Ugh, sounds fun. I think ignoring the holidays this year is perfectly acceptable.

    I think my plan is to "not feel well" after the half that morning. Yeah. Totally my plan.

    I think you're entitled to feel that way.  What would be your ideal Thanksgiving take out food?

    I'm actually looking forward to the holidays for the first time in years since I don't have to worry about my crazy ex-ILs and can just have fun with my family.

    My co-worker got a new car this week and it has put my new car fever into overdrive.

    Confession and UO (possibly TMI for this board): I hate breastfeeding. I 100% planned to EBF, but I hate it. I don't mind pumping and giving him breast milk, but actually breastfeeding makes me miserable. I saw a lactation consultant who helped a lot, but even though it's going better, I still hate it. I was happier last week when I was just pumping. I'm going to stick with it for a couple weeks, but if I still hate it then, I may just pump. 

    Vent: I love my MIL but she is effing nosy. She looks through stuff. And when she came over a couple weeks ago, I told her DH was sleeping in the bedroom, she just walked in there. Ok what if I was wrong and he was naked or something?

     

    CD, I think you can totally skip Thanksgiving.

    CD, we can have Slapsgiving instead of Thanksgiving. We'll find our XHs and hand out the slaps accordingly (pun totally intended) and then head to Outback for steak and drinks.

    Vent: I have to completely reapply for visitation to see my FIL. We haven't been since my name changed and we were previously told just to bring my marriage license. Now I have to write a letter to FIL who has to request an application to be mailed to me. I then I have to fill it out again and mail it back to the Dept. of Corrections. All of this to change my last name so it matches his. Ugh.

    I found breastfeeding to be very weird in the beginning.  It was definitely not something that I enjoyed, but I stuck with it and I think a lot of that had to do with the fact that I wasn't successful at having a natural birth, so I felt like I could justify that by making myself breastfeed. You do whatever you feel comfortable with and don't feel bad about it :)

    We can meet in a nicer part of town. With all the drive-bys and crazies it's not safe in my 'hood. That's a whole other vent though.

    I am judging my mom for being so pushy about her flavor of the month coming to DS's birthday party. Confession: I may have a problem with thinking that DS needs a photo session every month. Vent: I wish the place I interviewed would make a decision. Oh and I have been thinking about drinks since Pinterest at 6am today.

    CD - You deserve to do whatever you want for the holidays this year.

    Sikes - It's definitely odd at first.  I'd give it a few more weeks, but if you really hate it, don't make yourself miserable over it.  B had formula and he's an awesome kid :)

    UO: Parents that tell their children to shut up or other similar things. Seriously, there has to be a BETTER way to communicate here.
