Yesterday my neighbor asked if I was pregnant because I had a doctor's appointment on Monday. I just told her I wasn't and left it at that, then she came over later to apologize and turned on the waterworks. Um, ok.
Today's SCOTUS news was pretty freaking exciting.
I really don't want to be at work today. I'm supposed to be reviewing and scoring essays for an award, and I just don't want to. One, the applicants are kids. Kids. So, even if I'm not terribly keen on their application/essay, I feel wrong judging them.
I don't know what I want for lunch today. My $6 Meijer shirt is awesome. Comfortable and fits well. I randomly just spelled 'comfortable' as cumfortable in the above sentence. Um, wow. I don't feel like working. I feel like drinking wine and reading a book. Is it 3:00pm yet? Ugh.

I put a well-child check for Baby W on the calendar like 3 months ago (when he had his 6 month well child check) and reminded my boss verbally TWICE end of the week last week that I would not be in until closer to 10 a.m. this morning. Still got a text at 9 a.m. asking where I was.

I skipped swim practice this morning. Second time this week. And I don't regret it at ALL. It was hard enough getting out of bed at 7am. We're going to a (minor-league) baseball game on Friday night and the weather is supposed to be all kinds of HOT. I still want to go, but I'm probably going to regret it (I don't do well with uber-hot temps). I'm not typically a political person, but I'm so impressed with SCOTUS, it makes me proud to be an American. I'm looking at our 10-day forecast and realizing I need more shorts. I own two pair of non-running shorts and I'm going to be recycling those on the daily if I don't buy a couple more pairs.

I kind of with we had our insurance policies with Progressive, just so I could call and cancel them because of that super obnoxious BUNDLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLE commercial.
I am feeding the baby in the front seat of my car (in a parking lot). She kicked my diet coke cup, punched a hole in it, and flooded my cup holder. And it was fountain diet coke in a styrofoam cup, which is the best kind of all.

This is why we can't have nice things, Elizabeth.

I'm sure girls are different, but I totally get you. Baby W knocked over chocolate milk (that Monkey left in the living room despite repeated warnings about milk in the kitchen and dining room only) and ruined my new rug lol. Damn kids.
Additional random: my aunt (my mom's sister) is freaking crazy. I normally don't think about it, but she's been particularly feisty (and plain rude) on fb this week. She ranted about how Paula Deen needs to be forgiven because "the blacks always call each other the n word." People went against her, and today she claimed she's half Indian and has been called a halfbreed; so, clearly, she knows the pain of hurtful words. My mom about died when I shared this with her. She also used "the blacks" again. Idiot.
I just bought the most random dress at Goodwill. I went to get shorts and wound up with a vintage coral maxi dress. LOL It's flattering, but weird.
we're going to need a PIP!
I feel like it makes me look really tall. Like, unreasonably tall. This photo is the only one I took where I look even remotely short (which is funny, because I'm like ... 5'4")
ETA: I just noticed what a wreck our bedroom is. Judge away. Also, dog butt photobomb.
ALSO, if you don't like it, feel free to say so. It's a BIG bizarre step for me, so I'm perfectly ok with strangers on the internet being all "ehhhh. Not really." Haha
cw and I were talking about vanity sizing today and I was telling her how ON clothes run really big and what size I wear there. She looked incredulous and says, "no offense but you have some hips on you, so it's not like you're tiny." I know this and that was my point in saying how the vanity sizing makes it seem like you wear a smaller size than you do.
whatever, my hips are fine. later in the afternoon I was walking down the hall and after I passed a man in the hallway he goes "Mmmm, mmm, mmm" which is gross but really made me feel better after coworkers comment.

Was she trying to say that because you have hips, you should wear the larger size regardless? How RUDE. Ugh. Also, I feel you on the hips thing, but I'd be PISSED if some random coworker felt the need to comment on them. Dude, I'm totally aware that I have holster hips. Thanks, though.
hehe mrs.jacinthe holster hips. I've always referred to mine as birthing hips. I guess she was just saying that she couldn't believe what size I wear at Old Navy because I look too large for that to possibly be true. lol. At ON I can usually wear a size smaller than I do elsewhere. Lands End is like that too.
My house needs cleaned. Badly. Like, I've been so busy this week with swim meets that I've hardly been home at all, and when I am, all I do is fall asleep. I need to hire a cleaning lady. But first I need to make more moola to afford said cleaning lady.
Also, I want to go shopping. I want a whole new wardrobe.
