Re: Flameful confession
I'm insanely jealous that DH has a fancy, nice, pretty new MacBook Pro.
I recently upgrade my iPhone 3G to an iPhone 4, bought an iPad 2 and have a perfectly nice MacBook.
I'm now lobbying for a new Mac...I think I want a desktop this time.
Page 5!!! Halfway there!!!
We rented a margarita machine and it was a big hit.
The only thing I wish I'd thought of before was that the strawberry kind would turn my mouth red... and no one told me.
At least I wasn't the only one though. 
I haven't been carrying my phone with me.
Partly because it's all messed up and won't post to FB, and I hate talking.. so I see no point.
And partly as a passive-aggressive FU to nobody in particular because I should carry it as a safety thing. In the past I've had to call people for help and agreed to carry it in my pocket at all time 'just in case'.
I wouldn't be opposed to just laying at the bottom of a flight of stairs for a few hours right now.
Kind of a 'screw it' attitude from time to time.
I'm having an affair with Insomnia...it comes and it goes. ha. ha. ha.
You can rent those? Well, I want to rent one for my 25th birthday and invite all the neighbors (except the one who stole my package) and everyone can sit and just drink their little butts off.
I get that. I've had a lot of trouble with my blood sugar and DH gets on me about making sure I eat.
Sometimes I just want to NOT eat just to prove a point...what point, I don't know.
I told him one time I get sick from my blood sugar even when I DO eat, so what's the damn point?
I want a night alone.
We got a hotel room for New Years Eve.. but The Husband was there.
I just want to be alone.
Who knew that would be my biggest craving?
It's 1:30am here, but I'm always up late. My H works past 11 and sometimes later so we have a late dinner and stay up for a while. My sleep schedule is also pretty messed up from working 2nd and 3rd shift for so many years and I've always been a night owl anyway.
How do you function through the day?
I love being alone sometimes. I wouldn't want to be alone all the time, but it's lovely sometimes.
I'm such a night owl. It's when I do my best house cleaning.
We rented it from a party supply place. We had a blast and it keeps everything frozen and easy to dispense. You should do it!
I want an iPhone. I have a dumb phone. I'm afraid a smart phone will be smarter than me.
Also, when I think back 10 years ago, I still cannot believe how far we've come technologically. My coolest apparatus was a cd/walkman. I had a tape with a cord on it that I could put into my car so I could play songs from the cd/walkman.
I did have a cellphone, one that doesn't even exist anymore and it probably in a museum somewhere.
I did not have a computer. Or internet (no use for it).
Usually the little one is up until 1 o'clock or so most nights. She wakes up pretty frequently too. Then the big one gets up around 8 o'clock.
The Husband plays video games until around 2 o'clock.
My mom usually pees around 4 o'clock.
The dogs take turns being awake every hour or so all night long.
Then my mom has an alarm go off at 6 o'clock.
There are also a lot of strays in our neighborhood.
And our house makes strange noises, but never the same noises.
I'm a super light sleeper.
Pain also wakes me up.
It probably sucks more to get a few hours of sleep than to just not sleep at all or to take a few ten minute naps.
I have an addiction to Pinterest.
Why can't I come up with a concept like that, or post secret, or damnyouautocorrect, or zynga and make a shitton of money?
Oh, I'm going to.
Isn't it amazing? I love my iPhone and it probably is smarter than me, but I don't view as competition...I view as making me smarter
I'd be a raging b*tch. I can stay up late, but I neeeeed my sleep.
I've had multiple people accuse me of being perfect in a 'Empire Records' kind of way practically screaming and flinging pills at my head.
One of them was a coworker who I wrote up every night for making mistakes counting medications.
She was pissed she got in trouble all the time and I was pissed she couldn't count to seven.
During our staff meeting I offered to buy flash cards with my own money.
Why?
All of us are asking that saaaame question.
That said, I just don't get the love of Pinterest. I know how it works, but I don't get it.
He's Italian? I missed this!
We've had a lot more sounds lately though. It use to be mostly things moving, and now we have either 'voices' that sound like they are in another room or tapping or humming kinds of things.
