Where did you come from? Planet "Loser"?
"As opposed to Planet "Look At Me, Look At Me"?"
Ahh sisterly love 
Hi friends happy Wednesday (which feels like a Tues) I hope its a pretty good one! The sun keeps waking me up before 6am which makes me one tired girl. *YAWN* I think I many need a double strength Chai tea :P.
Happy belated anniversary to our May 28th friends.
ps I was going to hide a hint in my post but I can't change the color over here. TN YOU SUCK!
Re: Where did you come from? Planet "Loser"?
"I delivered a baby last week and you know what she said? "I should have listened to my father!" "She did not!" "No, but she would have if she wasn't so doped up!"
If I can stay awake today I'll be happy. I'm getting used to sleeping alone at the house and apparently I'm not sleeping as well as I could. Luckily H has off the next 5 days so I can get some better sleep.
Aggie: This is you and I this morning:
I was going to start a post today with "I'm down, I've got the 411 and you're not going out and getting jiggy with some boy, I don't care how dope his ride is. Mama didn't raise no fool." GAH I love the dad in that movie, such a classic!
Nothing new in my world. Wearing heels the day after running was a terrible decision on my part. My legs are killing me and it's only 8:37. Oops.
Have a great day ladies!

"My insurance does not cover PMS!"
Such a good movie. And now I want to watch it.
Today is my day off. I need to do laundry and clean up around here. Fun fun.
Beanie - We need some pictures of your new house!
Aggie - You should get room darkening curtains. We have them in our bedroom, and they are the best.
my read shelf:
It's a little squished to make it fit, but here's us on Mother's Day in front of the house. I don't have any on my computer that aren't the listing pictures, but when I get home I'll take some. I'll try to do a before and after of some.
I feel like I know this one! But I'm sure I'll have to google it again.
There's a follow up to the story from yesterday about the baby

Yeah, I totally believe her.

my read shelf:
I know you can be over-whelmed and you can be under-whelmed but can you ever be just whelmed?
Also, I just heard one of my coworkers on the phone say, "I said, 'How may I direct your call' not 'How can I help you' "
Wow, just wow. I really hope her supervisor heard her.
my read shelf:
Agh! I know this! Just can't think of the name of the movie.
Also, um...she actually said that to someone who called? Like an actual living person?

my read shelf:
Yes, she did unfortunately. She is the laziest person I have ever met in my life and hates doing anything we pay her for. Another example of her laziness: she sits not 15 feet from me but has never once come over to ask me a question, instead she will call me. She's even called me and asked me to come to her desk before.
my read shelf:
Do you know his e-mail password? You should be able to reset the password and then just log in to his e-mail account to reset it.
But if you don't, then yeah you're probably SOL.

"You don't buy black lingerie unless you want someone to see it."
Yes, we have a HUGE yard. I have no idea how to insert pictures from my computer and not online. The tree says no.
Morning Girls! I know this movie, wohoo!
That is pretty lazy E! WOW!
Beanie: What a cute house. It looks like something out of a magazine. Love it!
Thanks for the house love!
Liz- that chick needs to be slapped.
"THAT'S for making my date bleed. THAT'S for my sister. and THAT is for me"
Noooo I don't know it! I'm so sad right now. I sent him a text, so I'm hoping he checks his phone during his lunch break and responds.
my read shelf:
Beanie - The house looks so cute! I love the yard!
"You're not as vile as I thought you were"
"Don't, for one minute, think that you had any affect whatsoever on my panties"
"You can't just buy me a guitar every time you screw up, you know"
my read shelf:
OMG YOU MUST SEE IT RIGHT NOW.
"Mr. Morgan, is there any chance we can get Kat to take her Midol before coming to class?"
"Someday you're going to get b!tch-slapped and I'm not going to do a thing to stop it."
Hint: It's a teen flick from the late 90s. Here's the imdb link if you want to peek:

"Kissing? That's what you think happens? I've got news for you. Kissing isn't what keeps me up to my elbows in placenta all day long."
I think DH idolizes the father in this movie. He's hilariously embarassing and that is what DH looks forward to most about being a dad.
my read shelf:
Good Morning. I love that movie so much.
I had such an intense and wonderful dream last night. And then my toddler woke me up. ugh. I want to go back to that world.

Ask me stuff.
I freaking love this movie! I had it on vhs and brought it to the camp I worked at one summer during university and someone took it! BOO!! I somehow ended up with an extra copy of Save the Last Dance though.
E - Dh and I are looking forward to be parents that embarrass our child. we will totally be those parents that you see in stores or other public places that the kids are like, 'mom! dad! stop you're embarrassing me!'
Exactly Echo! I know it's not the sentiments behind the idea of "Pay It Forward" but yeah, he's looking forward to it immensely since apparently his parents were embarassing.
Mono - what was your dream about?
On a completely separate note, can I vent about library patrons for a second? There is a book that I have on hold and someone's copy was due back on May 14th. That was over two weeks ago jackass, return your copy so other people can have a turn. If it takes you over five weeks to read a book, maybe you shouldn't be utilizing the library. Or if it's just sitting around, you're just an inconsiderate turd.

my read shelf:
::sniff:: I just renewed my copy of "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" because I haven't had time to read.
"But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you. Not even close. Not even a little bit. Not even at all."
Sometimes it takes me 5 weeks to read a book. I've been having trouble concentrating and I can't focus on anything. So I want to read, but yeah. It takes me longer than normal.

The OP was calm and rational on page 1, but I think too many people pushed her and now she's yelling back. I'm actually torn on who's right, but I'm enjoying the drama of it all.
Cliff Notes: OP had her anatomy scan last week and the doctor said girl. She came back this week for another appointment and asked if the doctor could confirm girl for her. He got a little angry at the request and now she's wondering if she should change doctors. But, like, we're way off the rails from that.
Ok, this is one of those movies that I've seen a couple times and I had it on VHS. But I can't quote it. Good movie.
Remember a week or so ago I mentioned I was offered a new position at work and I was waiting to see if my request for more money would be accpted? Well, it was and I took the position. You're the first people besides H to know.

YAY KRIS!!
Joy- I'm team OP. All the doctor had to say was "We don't have time to do another scan today, but if you would like to schedule another appt we'll set it up." Also? I think the other people are mostly full of it with "I just want a healthy baby and if you only care about the sex then you suck" considering one of the main ones doing that has a picture of her reveal in her sig...
