I just saw another centipede in our bathroom. Thankfully it was not 2 inches long and HUGE like the last one. This was a baby one.
But wtf where are these little shits coming from? We have lived here for 19 months and did not have a single bug last summer. This summer we have centipedes, beetles and spiders.
H is taking David to the IL's tomorrow to help FIL change his transmission fluid. He'll be gone for several hours. Ahhhhhh! I will turn on Bridesmaids and bust out my scrapbooks and the wine. CANNOT FUCKING WAIT! Not that tonight's sushi and wine wasn't awesome.
It's 9 pm and my h isn't home from work yet. They're trying to finish renovations in this house so people can move in like tomorrow or something. At least I think that's where h is :/

I had a shitttttty day. I am so, so glad it's Friday. I need a big girl glass of wine tonight.
DD1 slammed DD2's hand in the bedroom door this morning. It was swollen and bruised immediately. She was using it and didn't even flinch when I manipulated it so I think she's totally fine. But still, I can't wait to pick her up from daycare and snuggle her. We found out that a friend of my husband's had a bicycling accident and is in ICU with a traumatic brain injury. It's the anniversary of H's friend's suicide. Ugh, just a terrible day all around.

I'm watching my friends 2 year old tomorrow and its going to suck. He's in a phase where all he does is stand in the middle of the room and cry. Jax can't even figure out what to do with him when we hang out. The only good thing is that it will be over by 1 and the mom really does need the break before she had a total comegetthismotherfucker moment.

I went to the school of architecture BBQ with Lucy and those fuckers ate all the food! There was still an hour and a half left but the party broke up when it was clear we weren't being fed. So Lucy and I played in the quad, threw pennies in the fountain and took selfies on campus. Then we went to dinner at our fave Mexican place. An impromptu girls night!

We have almost everything set up for the garage sale tomorrow! It was about a zillion degrees in our garage tonight where I was working. I am so utterly pooped. I came straight home from work and worked for three hours on garage sale stuff (H is working). I hope we make money tomorrow so this is worth it.
i have been working a ton. i feel like i can't turn anything down because i'm pregnant and i need to look valuable and like i'm SO cultivating business and ruling and this bump isn't going to break my stride. as a result, i'm now currently working on three different things for which deadlines are ever-changing at the client's directive. i've explained this to the husband, i thought, but he seems mystified by my constant lateness, fatigue, and the smaller amounts of time i've been spending with the family this past week than A) normal and B) would be ideal.
like, dude, i'm so fucking tired. i'm weary. i'm bone weary. and i'm trying to kill it at work so that i don't look like some slackass who just sailed off into (12 weeks of) maternity leave. and, in fact, i'm trying to make sure that SOME of what i'm working on i'm still in loop for while i'm out so that when i come back it's all "oh, thank god you're here" instead of "oh, you?" please understand this. you skipped half of the vacation at my parents' beach house because you're worried about the 3 weeks, total, of paternity leave you'll be taking over like a 2 month period. this can't be something you don't understand.

I have spent the better part of every spare second of this business trip reading the riot act to my useless and incompetent rental office who managed to lose my rent check for the second time since June, throwing it on my lap to fix or face all sorts of late fees. Apparently, I'm a ninja who can just breeze into the rental office in IL from my business trip in AL and clean up their useless office and their property manager who cannot seem to track the goddamned mail. I cannot wait until next year when I can buy a place. If I'm going to go through all this crap to pay someone for something, I better own something at the end of it.
All day I was getting ready for C's first birthday party tomorrow.
I'm all weepy about looking back at pics, and seriously can't believe he's a year old.
I also asked my H if he thinks we love him MORE than most parents love their kids, or if there really is just that much LOVE going on. Lol.
oh, i think this all the time. "those assholes can't possibly love their kid as much as i love mine."
this is, i think, the adult version of thinking that you AND ONLY YOU, like, really, and truly UNDERSTAND morrisey.
Yup.
It also give you a whooole new view of your own parental relationships. I understood my parents more, but it's brought up a bunch of issues for my H. His mom was always SO negative to him, and his family never says "I love you". He (and of course me) cannot understand, especially when we look at/experience such joy with Connor, how any parent could be that way.
Why do the mosquitos only attack me? Eat DH. I'm sure he's just as good. Grrrrr.
I like to watch Dateline. Tonight DH didn't want to. I had already read the synopsis and knew it was about Mt. Everest survivors. Totally his thing. I changed that channel anyways and pretended that I no longer wanted to watch Dateline based on the stupid story line. He totally fell for it and is so into it. Freaking Rookie.

Dh just asked me to so something rightthissecond and I told him no it didn't need to be done right now and I wasn't doing it. Now he's acting all bitchy. Thankfully we rented a movie and don't need to speak bc I'm pissed.

Boys are at the ILs for the weekend, H is packed up for his MS 150 mile bike ride that leaves at o dark thirty in the morning -- and guess who gets to take him there! The upside is that the overnight rest stop is at a casino and I'm gonna meet him and stay over. Maybe we'll win some medium bucks at the tables
Thank you, you guys! I know I'm super obnoxious about them.
And Cville, you should write a book or something. The way you phrase stuff is both hilarious and incredibly accurate.
thank you . this is my new backup plan if i get fired while on leave.
also, you've totally inspired me to make my kids wear matching jams. oh yeah.
Dude, match the shit out of them while they're still young enough to coerce. They had TWO sets of matching Halloween costumes last year, and I'm still not sorry. I swear matching a "set" is more fun than matching same sex siblings.
