There was a random "sponsored" post on my FB this morning that had a video clip of Motley Crue playing at the Moscow Music Peace Festival in 1989. Did anyone else watch that back in the day? I can't remember if it was on MTV or PPV or what, but I know I videotaped it and loved it. Now I'm going to want to watch it all on YouTube.
I think Minnesota is just going to be in a perpetual state of winter. Just one season, forever. That's what it feels like anyway.
I had a pistachio muffin and a mocha for breakfast. It was probably a million calories but I love them so much.
One of my old coworkers reposted a thing that said "Do not join a facebook group called, 'Becoming a mother/father was the greatest day of my life!' It is a way for pedophiles to get pictures of your kids!" The first four or five comments were snopes links.
My first instinct was to share it with the comment, "Apparently there's no pedophiles, but still don't join this group because it will make you look like a sanctimonious dick." (I didn't.)
Also jealous! I was actually thinking of fitting in a Phils game before the baby comes. My MIL got him a super fresh looking Phils track suit so I'm sure we'll go to a game at some point this season, with or without him!
I got my hair done and it's so short! And blonde! I feel like a need a tan, now. ha!
I haven't been in the office for two days so I'm hoping this day flies by. I'm ready for the weekend!
i would do it sooner than later - i went to a spring training game at like 38 weeks and it was ROUGH. the walking was way too much, i had a bunch of BH at the game. it was also FL and hot out though:)
we have all sorts of philly gear. i just slap a headband on her so people don't assume she is a boy.
I have to go to the lady doctor on Monday about my left boob. I don't have any lumps that I can find, but I've been having increasingly frequent events of discomfort. It's ached on and off since G was born. First I blamed breastfeeding, then muscle fatigue, since it's my dominant side and where I carry my babies, but since its getting worse, I figure it's dumb to ignore it just in case.
I assume this will start me on mammograms. I was already scheduled to start at 35 since my grandfather had breast cancer twice. Why not start the boob squishing a few years early? Lol.
I'm bummed that I haven't sold any of my photos since I got wall space back in January. Honestly, I'm not a sales person, so there's no one to blame but myself. I'm trying to change all of that and hopefully sell a few for mother's day/graduation season
Here's my first feeble attempt at promoting myself through my own fb page (because no one finds that annoying at.all) I put this together and then posted it as my cover photo. It goes without saying that I have absolutely nothing to do at work today
My mom has been teaching for 25 years this year. This morning, they're dedicating First Friday Mass to her and having a luncheon. I'm going to be busy busy busy today! And we have a Phillies game tonight, too. I need to get going, omgggg
I had tickets to tonight's game but gave them to my mom and nieces. Boo. Congrats to your mom!
I am working all weekend and studying for my first CLEP exam. I have not had to study in such a long time. Because of all the work and studying and cleaning that I need to do, I made no plans for the entire weekend. Of course it's supposed to be gorgeous out.
I've been feeling unfilled lately and I'm not sure where to start to change it.
I took the boys to their first baseball game (minor league) yesterday and it was so much fun! They got all excited when people cheered - so cute.
I'm trying to slow down my spending since we need to replace our upstairs AC and of course now I have all sorts of things I want to buy. I need to stop opening my zulily emails.
Everything in life is super stressful right now. My boss is being a snatch again, the nanny is starting to hint about a raise (which we just outright can't afford), and for the first time in a long long time I feel "trapped." When I expressed this to Jake last night he was kind of a douche about it just saying "Yeah, yeah, yeah, uh-hmmmm." We ended up having a productive talk but I was like OMG I OFFER YOU FULL EARS AND SUPPORT FOR TEN MONTHS WHEN YOU WERE UNEMPLOYED AND THIS IS WHAT YOU GIVE ME THE MOMENT I NEED YOU?!?! Jeeeeeez.
*sigh* So our solution is to move. It isn't fair to pull Jake out of a job he's starting to find his feet in -- he likes it, he can grow, etc -- so just move somewhere cheaper, closer, with hopefully cheaper daycare, and get me a job closer to where we end up (it may be job, then move). Anyone in Metro Boston know of any openings? lol. Thinking North Shore (not Salem/Peabody/Lynn, we're here already) through West (no farther than like, Needham).
SIL and her boyfriend drove down to visit our BIL&SIL in Arizona. My MIL is scandalized that they're traveling alone and sleeping in the same hotel room. I am dying to see her reaction when she finds our he had two kids and is divorced (not that this is a bad thing, I adore the BF, but to my super Mormon MIL, that is a total scandal).
My dad is retiring at the end of the summer and I am at a complete loss for what I should get him.
Our asshole cat decided that she's now nocturnal. She sleeps under the bed until we go to sleep, then she plays with her plastic balls in the bathroom simply because they make more noise in there.
I'm working from home today, but so far that's meant drinking coffee, watching Fringe, and getting ready to make a lemon pound cake. Shit, I'm excited for lemon pound cake.
