Let me think of one.
Look with your special eyes.
Re: Hump Day Confessions
Of what?
I confess I am ready to leave the front door open and let the cat out. He is pooping on the floor and no matter what I do, how often I clean, how many litter boxes he has, he keeps doing it. I couldn't ever actually do this, but I am thiiiis close.
I'm sitting here right now, barely listening to my dad babble about how he cooked the fish he's bringing me....and he just pulled in my driveway. Seriously. he talked to me about the fish the whole way here.
Just BRING IT TO ME.
I am ridiculously excited to finally be getting my kitty back in my possession to live with me.
I'm pretty sure I just found a pube on my desk. WTF EW.
I'm going to a new place to get a haircut and color on Friday and I can't wait. Its called "The Best Little Hairhouse". It got great reviews. Come on Friday!
I confess I called my STBX last night to come and handle a baby squirrel situation on my porch. They were still alive
I confess I didn't get up until 8 (I work from home sometimes), brush my teeth until 10, and still have no makeup on. And I don't have kids which makes it really sad.
I confess that in order to get my kid to eat more, I moved his booster into the living room so he could eat and watch tv.
If we sit at the table and eat with him, the hellion throws his food and squishes it between his fingers. Then he cries because he hates how it feels. If we sit him in front of the tv, he eats like a mindless zombie until he is full. Then he throws things.
My diet has consisted mainly of candy and ice cream. I'm a stress eater.
The last day I had off of work was April 8. The next time I'll have a day off is May 5.
I am dying at my cousins wedding invite that I got in the mail today, it looks like a art project for a 3rd grader.
I have been eating handfuls of m&ms just because they are in a bowl and I can just reach over and grab some without opening a lid.
My hormones are in overdrive for some reason and I want to have sex like 5 times a day, I am kind of worried about this but I really dont want to complain about it.
Skootch over. I'll help you paddle the boat.
I did the same thing with DS yesterday morning. He was eating breakfast before I took him to my mom's house. Usually he's in his high chair in the kitchen (and makes a huge mess) but yesterday I had to pewp. I rolled his chair out to the living room and turned on Little Einsteins (the powder room is off the living room, so I could see him... the kitchen is not viewable from the hopper). The kid ate like a champ and there wasn't a speck of food on the floor. This morning, in the kitchen... the floor was covered in food within seconds. I rolled him out to the living room and again, pristine floors.
Whatever. I'm thinking dinner with Elmo tonight.

My confession without piggy-backing on someone else...
I haven't done a goddamn thing today. I'm being petty and I know it. I work in a department of five people and one manager. It was six people and a manager, but one guy moved away and I absorbed his job. So, I'm already doing the work of two people (manager knows this). I've adjusted. I'm always busy and there really isn't much, if any, downtime... but I just plow through.
I was asked to fill in for co-worker 1 when she went on maternity leave. She's been out for 18 weeks now and I'm still doing her job, in addition to my own.
Yesterday, I was told that co-worker 2 is going on vacation for the next three weeks. He's leaving this weekend. Apparently I will be doing his job while he's out (and co-worker 1 won't be back for a least another four weeks). This co-worker has been letting his work pile up, by his own admission.
That leaves co-workers 3 & 4 who aren't getting any of this bullschit. Co-worker 3 is relatively busy and he's at a higher level... so I'll ignore him. Co-worker 4 is pissing me off. She's at my level. She leaves early every.single.goddamn.day because she "doesn't have anything to do" or because she has "a general malaise". I'm not schitting you, those are the excuses that come out of her mouth to our manager. I asked manager why she isn't taking any of this additional work and he said that he can't trust her to do the additional work accurately or in a timely manner. He can trust me to do it.
What the actual f?ck?!
