Re: confessions/rants/raves/general musings
I was so PMS-y last night at work! I was reading a comic that was about super heroes that had aged and how the world was. Superman, Wonder Woman and the like. At one point one of the characters showed up whose mental facilities were pretty much gone. He wanted to help but couldn't contribute as much and it just broke my heart for some reason. He said he wanted to matter and help out, but he just couldn't! Oh jeez...tearing up again....
So I started bawling right there in the store. Luckily there were no customers at that point, but three walked in and I had to get a hold of myself. Once they left, I called DH just blubbering, trying to explain what upset me. I'm sure he thought I was crazy cakes. Also, he was trying really hard to understand me since I was crying so hard.
Holy PMS Batman!
Edit: changed words
my currently-reading shelf:
I have a friend that has a lazy BF and it drives me crazy that she puts up with it. He lives in her house, pretty much rent free, she has to do all of the cooking and cleaning. He's unemployed, he's not going to school or looking for a job either. In fact, he's forgotten to file for unemployment some weeks. At least he finally got around to getting his GED about 2 years ago...
She's super smart and successful and it just drives me nuts that she's still with this guy.
Oh, and I plan on getting really drunk at the wedding I have to go to tomorrow night. It might be the only way I can get through it without my eyes rolling out of my head.
vent? my brother. and my parents. my parents wanted to gift my brother "equal" what they gifted me for my wedding....but since this is shotgun, my parents didn't get a chance to save for it, so they are borrowing money from me. they're borrowing more than what his wedding costs... which i get, because my parents want to be "fair" in their gifts, but it just bugs me because when i was making invites, my brother was asking me to send invites to everybody and asking them what they gave me for my wedding. every invitation he sees as a dollar sign on our family/extended family, and it just bugs me. that's not a reason to get married, and not a reason to invite people you have no-relationship with.
also...i really don't know how i'm supposed to act around my new SIL. i've only met her once, and i wasn't really a fan...but my brother called me begging for support, because her sister won't support/approve their relationship. now that she's KTFU, it just shows more of her immaturity, and i like her even less. i know it's not all her fault, because my brother has had baby fever for over 10 years, but it does show that they didn't make the best decisions, especially after she had a "scare" a few months prior.
i hate being the responsible sibling. i want freebies and handouts, too.
