Can we do another day of confessions?
Like how I planned my lunch hour so I would be home for the Peyton Manning press conference at noon? 
Or how I have to go to CVS. I'm opting to go after work so I can still watch the press conference.
Judge away!

Re: Can we do another day of confessions?
I signed up for another round of Strollersize (instead of the next class up Baby Worx, which I would probably like better) for the sole reason that I feel like I might be kind of making friends with one of the girls in my class and she can't do baby worx due to a commitment on the day it is on.
I could really use some more "mom friends", but don't know how to bridge the gap from "friends at a class" to "friends in real life".
This is hard. I have made a lot of mom friends through groupd by being brave and making the first move.
Go to coffee or something afterwards.
Confession: I find it ironic (in a ridiculous way) that someone on this board who used to get mad about ppl talking about babies now only posts when it's baby-related.
Confession: I peeked at DH's mid-semester grades- I don't think he's even seen them yet lol.
#1: I avoided the board for a long stretch of time because I found myself getting more annoyed with things than enjoying the topics and conversation. I'm back around now because things some more settled and fun again.
#2: A student asked in passing to drop in today and I told them to come back at 2:30. When the time came and went without the student showing up, I couldn't even call for them because I'm completely blanking on their name and I know I've talked to her at least twice before.
I'm loving the confessions
Confession: I can't stand the October 2012 Moms board. I'm sure they are all nice, but the same question gets asked 1000 times. And it makes me feel sicker to read about everyone else's M/S. 90% of the people on there have no idea what they're talking about, and since neither do I, I think I need to go elsewhere for my advice/input.
The good news is, it makes me even more grateful for this amazing board!!
I am having a huge pity party week - so please beware.
My brother came over to visit with my dad today. He stayed for dinner and just before we sat down he had my niece walk in with u/s pictures. He and my SIL are pregnant. I am happy for them, but I felt like I had been punched in the gut. I had to hold back tears. I had to use the excuse of going downstairs to take a shower so I could break down with out anyone seeing. I feel completely awful for having this reaction and I thought I would be ok with it. I wish I had some warning so I didn't have to find out on the fly with everyone. Selfish, I know, but I can't help it.
I was a tad disappointed on my birthday that Matt didn't have a party. Not a huge thing, but something with all our friends. I honestly feel like I have no friends b/c I never see any of them. Matt planned for our families to go out to dinner which was wonderful, but I would have loved some time with our friends. My sisters stupid bf (whom I dislike) texted Matt to say he was having a surprise 25th birthday party for my sister this Saturday night. F'ing awesome. We have another friends surprise 30th on Saturday night too and I would much rather go to that one than hang out with my sister and her bf and their drunk friends. BLAH
My Confession: I am fuming over this Kony 2012 thing, and I'm not 100% sure if it is because I actually care about the video and their lack of credibility, or if it's just hormones.
Also, and I really feel bad about this one, but I am so glad that we are starting to talk about more interesting/happy stuff lately. For a while it felt like every second post was a T&P post (which is SO hypocritical since I JUST posted one), and it made me sad to read most of them.
I have a sink full of dirty dishes, and I don't give a sh*t. I'll do them tomorrow. Or David will.
I really want a mental health day, but I have too much to do. That's probably why I want one.
I also need a dog-mom break. Because of Dexter's issues, they haven't been to daycare in nearly a year (and won't be going). I am going to visit my mom this weekend and the puppers are going to the kennel. They have a blast, and I get to zone and not worry about them.
