We leave for Vegas tomorrow. I was seriously sad last night when I tried to start packing and realized I have very few cute outfits to wear. I am going to hit up the mall tonight but I have no idea what I should even be looking for.
Hold off until you go to Vegas. Macy's in Fashion Show Mall has seriously the best clearance racks I've ever shopped at. It's on the strip, across from Wynn.
I've realized I can't rate someone strictly on looks. I had the MM topic in mind last night when I had a work/volunteer type thing. A guy came in and I automatically assessed him as a 6. Then he started to talk, and his voice is whiny, so he dropped. He thought he knew everything and got angry when people disagreed with him. He then became a 2. There is so much more to it than looks.
That is so much like that episode of Portlandia. She is in a meditation class, and totally fantasizing about the guy across from her instead of meditating. At the end of the class the guy is all whiny and nasal and won't stop complaining. It's hysterical.
January is one of my busiest months. It' also the month where everyone one and their mother calls and solicits my business. I got 4 today and it's not even lunch time. WTMF.
I'm so sick right now too, my tonsils growing up were a mess but I never got them taken out. Now my neck and throat are killing me along with sinus and ear pain. I'm peeved because I'm afraid this makes me look like a slacker at work but I'm in so much pain that all I'm doing is sleeping.
I was so nervous about mean Internet comments, and instead the comments there are super nice! This morning started out sucktastically, and now I am feeling all warm and fuzzy.
Great article! Congrats on being featured! How cool.

I've been feeling horrible about my weight lately. I lost 10 lbs shortly after DD2 was born but am slowly starting to inch back up to my prepregnancy weight. I am not happy about this. I really need to lose 20 lbs to feel good about my body again. I've decided to try C25K and am going to start tonight. I talked with DH to sort out a running schedule for myself to make sure that he'd be free to watch the kids while I go.
I'm really excited to start. I hope I can stick with it.
When I was in the bank drive through this morning my window made a horrible clunking/grinding sound when I was rolling it up and the window then promptly dropped down into the door, never to be seen again. I had to drive home (about 2.5 miles) in the pouring rain with no window.
Why does this kind of thing only happen when it is raining? I had the same thing happen in my VW, it was still under warranty so at least I didn't have to pay for it.
My pup is home from having a tumor removed on her belly. She is woozy but in not too bad shape. Now we wait to get the biopsy results on Monday.
Thank you for the kind words! I was very scared to put the story out there about how I failed even after being given the weight loss chance of a lifetime. It's awesome to see how supportive and non-judgmental people are!

I am so sick - AGAIN. This time I have a respiratory infection. I am not sure if I am coming down with the flu - but I did get a flu shot. I am just super pissed because a) I have a lot of stuff to do at work and I called in sick today and b) I was just sick wtih that god-awful stomach bug for a week over Christmas.
I'm right there with you . Got the god-awful stomach bug right before Christmas (a gift from DH) and got to fly home with it. Then a coworker walked into a conference room last Friday--announced he didn't have the flu, just a sinus infection and bronchitis and the Z-pack would knock it out. Thanks, jerk, great for you, I'm allergic to the Z-pack. And he wouldn't go home (and I couldn't) Been sick since Sun.
And my random confession--I haven't showered since Sun. Definitely need to get motivated to take one this afternoon.

This is partially why I keep staying home, I'm afraid I'll just keep getting others sick and then it will come back.
H's cousin just posted a photo on FB of her HUGE new chest tattoo. It says "Truely Blessed" TRUELY. If you're going to get an enormous word tattooed on you, please make sure you're spelling it correctly. It has taken all my self-restraint to not comment.
Oh my gosh!! Have other people commented? Has anyone noticed? I think it is a public service to tell her.
I took a "sick day" today and went on a little day trip with my FI. We did a brewery tour, walked around the town and grabbed lunch, it was a really great day
