I am also going to be avoiding FB today - it's too much
My shoulder really hurts
And my period is late - but it's been completely screwy all summer. Still, this is pretty late. I'm giving it until Friday and then I'm going to get some tests

The city is cutting down several dead trees on my street this week. They decided that the best place to start today is right in front of my house...at 6:30 AM. With chainsaws. If I didn't have to wait for a UPS delivery this morning I'd throw DD in the car and go wander around Ikea or something so she can nap.
FB is already making me stabby this morning and it's only 8:30.
Fuck today. The cleaning people were supposed to be here by 8:30 so I had everyone up and ready to leave a few minutes early. They called and are coming 3 hours later ugh. Then I get home from taking the kids to school, open the fridge and a huge full jar of salsa crashed and shattered on the floor. Then I opened a cupboard and a thing of pepper fell out, opened hit my glass of milk and cue another huge mess of pepper and milk! Ugh!! I think I'm done for the day so I think I'll go to a movie before I trash anything else!

The city doesn't have to follow their own noise ordinance?

So yesterday in all of my grace I wacked my cheek on the toilet paper holder at work. It fucking hurts still but didn't bruise or anything. I wore some spanx under my dress and was pulling them down to pee and sneezed hard and hit my cheek. So I had to explain it to DH this AM who laughed so hard he shot coffee out if his nose onto his work shirt. We are a pair!
My period finally showed up, after being MIA since July.
I ran out of gas yesterday on the busiest road on our campus, at rush hour. It was awful. When my gas light comes on, I usually have about 20 miles left... NOPE. I made it about 8 miles. Fuck you, car.
I almost cried this morning at work. One of the professors in my department came in, dropped a card on my desk, smiled, and walked away. In the card was this long letter saying how much she appreciates me, and what an asset I am... and how everyone there is happier when I'm around. It was so freaking sweet. PLUS, she gave me a $20 gift card to Target. I'm secretly thankful that I didn't get that other job I applied for. I honestly cannot see myself leaving this place.

The ordinance states no noise before 6 am, so unfortunately they're within their rights to start when they did today. It's just so LOUD!
H is traveling cross country today through Friday.
I'm so fucking over it. I work my ass off too, commute 3 hours a day and doing dinners, lunches, bath, baby to bed, and waking up multiple times a night with said baby alone is really fucking getting to me.
I'm with you. It's just so wearing to never really be caught up and have no time to really decompress.
I'm just so exhausted.
And I hate to say it, but it makes me so resentful. We both work and earn roughly the same, but I sacrifice so much to make his job work. I mean, hell, we're even talking about moving cross country if his company offers him a promotion. I love my job and I'd be leaving it. Tangent.
Its starting to wear on me and I don't like that person I'm acting like.
I received an email from HR at a local university yesterday stating that they are interested and I will be receiving a phone call to set up an interview. I know it has only been a day but I am becoming impatient and anxious.
Of course I keep thinking what if they mistakenly sent that email to me.

Yesterday a bird shit all over my car. My whole hood and windshield were covered. I've never seen anything like it. I think it must have eaten a gas station egg.

Last year we had awful stink bug invasion in our house. I walked into the kitchen this morning and thought I smelled stink bug. I realized I was being nuts because there haven't been any around yet. I go about my business and look up and one of those fuckers is on my ceiling. I hate them and there is nothing the exterminator can really do about them. They are everywhere and I just flush down one at a time.
Continuing the bug theme. I walk out to my car and a big spider has spun its web between my side mirror and the ground. When it sees me it runs up to my mirror. I call my husband (who was walking the dog) in a panic to come kill it. He is far away. I start to head inside and queue the sprinklers coming on blocking my way to the door. So imagine all 36 weeks pregnant me climbing in through the passenger door and over to the driver side while having a spider induced panic attack. I drive over to where my husband is, refuse to roll down the window, instead I scream through the closed window until he kills the spider. Oh I am also screaming not to let the dog get close because he might get bit. He hates me right now but he is my hero.
I have been having this crazy feeling that the birth of this baby is imminent. It obviously is but it is not just that he is coming early more that I am a ticking time bomb and he is coming like within the week. I am sure that I am just being nuts but then I start reading into things. I have been feeling this way for about a week but yesterday it was just overwhelming. I told my BFF and sister about this feeling and neither were at all reassuring they both told me that had dreams or feelings that he was coming early too. Way to be reassuring to the psycho pregnant person who would just like to make it to at least 38 weeks.
ETA remind me of my crazy "feeling" when I am overdue and bitching about that

I totally get you. DH starts his travel season soon where he will will be traveling just as much as he is home/ probably traveling more and I'm already getting moody about it without even realizing it. They just don't get how waking up alone and having to worry about no one other than yourself, not having to do any dishes, clean up after anyone, do any laundry, wipe any butts, etc etc etc. I know it's his job and everything so I don't usually voice my thoughts too much, but when he tells me about all the awesome dinners he has, and the band he saw at the bar the night before makes me want to poke his eyes out with toothpicks.
He also has a job opportunity out in CA, that is he freaking out about. I've already told him there is no way we can move now, with my new job in January and well we just bought a house. But they are trying to work something out so he can work from home and go into the office a few days a month. Let's see if it works out.
I'm going to lose most of the nail on my left pinkie. Last night I was changing out the insert for the change machine at work and got my finger caught under it. It looks like someone took a knife to the nail and just cut it. It hurts SO BAD.
I just need Sofia to go over -----> there for a bit. I'm so sick of being climbed on and touched. Just let me have my coffee in peace without falling all over the place. Please? And last night she decided to sleep with a peeled banana, so now I have disgusting banana dried onto the sheets.
My random- after feeling like shit for the past five days, I've now passed it on to H! Yipee! I really hope were all feeling better by Friday so we can go to Grapefest (wine festival). I have a feeling we will be since we seem to be at the end of this crap. Oh fall....

We had dinner with my inlaws the other night. MIL tried to make risotto. She used 2 cups of parmasen cheese to only 1 cup of rice. It was disgusting. Even my FIL who eats everything complained about it.
My piss has smelled like parmasen for the past two days.
I can't get my ovulation predictor test to give me a smiley face. Every morning is a big dumb empty circle. I just started ttc and I'm already getting frustrated.
It's weird, I never got one my first month but did my second month. Then I said "fuckit" and threw them all out, lol. I hated that shit.
