Can I get some Thursday Randoms??

[prettyinpearls]

The house renovations are stressing me out/pissing me off. There are too many decisions to make all at once and I don’t want to make any of them because I keep changing my mind. I’m worried I’ll choose something (paint color, tiles, door styles, etc.), end up hating it, and then not enjoy our new house as much as I should because I don’t like what I picked out.

I need to chill.

I slept like crap last night and I still need to finish packing... this will be a day of suck.

Went to Macy's last night with T so he could get a new dressy winter coat. Got one for $79.00 that was originally $250 and he looks quite dashing in it I must say

Tonight is my work holiday party and I'm pretty excited for that, it's low key but fun. I took tomorrow off since I have vacation days to burn up, and I made an appointment with an advisor to finally figure out what handful of classes I need to take to finally graduate with my BA. I may need to transfer because I think I could graduate more quickly elsewhere, but we'll see. I NEED to get this overwith and I've been dragging my feet for two years about it.

I pick up the moving truck today, and I am not looking forward to loading that bitch. Mind you...I still have to pack.

My date is tonight and I'm looking forward to it. He is apparently nervous. I am going to straighten my hair for it.

They are repainting the CEO office and it smells. I am about to close my office door so it won't be as strong.

I need new curtains to go with my new sofa cover, but can't decide what to even look for. Help?

My co-worker overuses the word “thus” and it makes me stabby. I just got an email from her where the three sentences in a row started with the word thus. I want to go over to her desk and kick her in the shins.

I drank WAY too much wine last night at our old apt complex. They had wine & cheese night and I just invited DH and myself. Luckily, they were happy to have us, just as long as we brought a bottle of our homemade wine to share. They have done these events in the past with someone who pours you samples of the 8 wines they have to offer. This year they cut out the middle man and bought 8 different wines and set them out so you could serve yourself. Bad (or possibly the best) idea??

[Bernadine]

I'm giving blood for the first time today! I had to wait until a year after the last time xh and I had sex, because he had used IV drugs.

Drink lots of water Bernadine beforehand and make sure to have a decent sized snack/meal about an hour to two hours beforehand.

Apparently, when the guy I am going out with tonight first got interested in me, he didn't realize I was a mom. He asked our friend about it, and our friend said so much great stuff about A. That made me smile.

-My best friend since I was 16 told me he loved me last week and now we are awkward. I love him dearly, just not in the way I would need to long term. I wish I did....

-I am attempting to potty train my son. He told me last night "I no go potty, I poop on the floor and bath."

[shakester]

I feel like a bad mom for taking my kids to Hooters for dinner last night. It was the closest restaurant to my son's karate studio and my kids were STARVING. They begged me to take them there. Oh well.

PB&J and peanut butter/chocolate ice cream are my biggest guilty pleasures right now.

My Exh is keeping one of my son's sweaters hostage. My son wore it over to his house a month ago and my ex won't give it back because he likes it. I bought it for my son from Gymboree, it's fancy and I want it back. My ex is so damn annoying.

For some reason,this really annoys me. Your ex is on my list. Why play games like that? That's bullshit!

The Hooters thing-I bet your kids have seen women wearing less on TV/at the pool, no big deal. AND their wings ARE pretty good.

Oh and another, after the show I did for my high school drama coach, a guy who was in the show with me sent me a FB friend request. I was in a show with him years ago also, so I accepted it. He sent me a "poke" last night. He's my dad's age. I'm all icked out by it. I didn't even know FB still had the poke function.

[Bernadine]

J's xw always sends their son in clothes that are too tight/short and pants that have holes in the knees.

[heyney]

Im super excited to go to Ellens 12 Days of Giveaways - she's already given away serious loot!

[Bernadine]

Well. I just realized I wore a dress today. Here's hoping I don't flash my vag to my co-workers when I get in the chair to donate.

What is UP with all the douchebags finding SO lately? racist, judgmental, assholes are abound. Orrrr, maybe finals times are making ME a less tolerant asshole. Hmmm, I can't decide.

I agree! I think we should just ignore.

Finally getting to a place of semi-peace about the divorce and stbx...it feels both good and sad.

I'm going out with some old friends this weekend and am ridiculously excited about it!

I hate when people post stuff on FB and then delete the comments they don't like. If you can;t take the good with the bad, than don't post at all.
Bugs the shit out of me.

I really want a Magic Bullet for Christmas. Ever since I saw the infomercial I'm obsessed with the idea of making smoothies, chopping nuts, making homemade hummus, etc. I keep thinking of how life changing it would be to own the Magic Bullet. I'm a sucker for sure.

Eh, it's their facebook, if you don't like it, post your criticism on your own facebook. i delete when people try and start fights/debates. Take your drama to your OWN page.

Ohhhh no! That's good to know though.

I'm headed to NYC today for a much needed vacation to visit a friend, yay!

I'm grateful for guy friends, just met one of my friends and my house so he could help me turn off my sprinklers before it snows, he saved the day.

Then my neigbor is the Patagonia rep and I just got the cutest silver coat to take to NYC for $60 instead of the $250 list price, yay!

I feel happy today and have an open heart to all the new possibilities life has in store for me, :heart:

Really, because I asked for the same thing. BUT, I used to have one and stbx took it when he moved out, I LOVED it and used it all the time to make salad dressings and smoothies.

oh one more.
Yesterday this guy came into my office to get a signature from my boss. He had to get the signature because his wife filed for divorce in October and between the court and stress he just couldn't handle things. He looked stressed out. So I kind of chuckled and said, "hey look at that! We're on the same divorce timeline, my H filed in October too. Maybe I'll see you at the courthouse! haha"
He gave me this look that was somewhere between relief and surprise and said "thank you, everyone else gives me a sad look and makes me feel bad for myself!". We chatted for a little bit and he wished me a happy divorce when he left.
It was awesome.

This is great! I hate when people don't know what to say and say something like, "I'm sorry that must be hard" and I'm always like, "Don't be sorry, I'm awesome!". I always congratulate people on their divorce. No use being all sorry about it. Even if you are at first, it'll get better.

Same. People would say "Sorry about your divorce" and I would reply "Why? I'm not!"

I had to do this recently to a comment a distant cousin posted on my status update. I wrote that it was first snowfall while I was away in NH in October. She wrote something like "Oh too bad for all the snobs". WTF? I don't know if she was calling me snobby or the place I was visiting but I deleted that shit.

I've deleted comments before, usually things that are insulting and have nothing to do with the post, or when someone divulges too much about me that I don't want my family to know.
Ex... I posted about being ill and going to the dr. Friend started posting about my IUD and asking about that. While I have no issues talking about it, don't really want that on FB.
