Thursday Afternoon Randoms?

[luckyval]

That's so sweet kevin. I've been missing my granddad lately. Another one of those larger than life personalities.

What kind of business do they run?

[snickers]

My in laws have officially LEFT THE PROVINCE! The visit was actually a good one, but it's nice to not have something to do/people to entertain.
Time to relax!

[Kit]

Aww that's really sweet.

I asked my mom via email if she had any Bed, Bath and Beyond 20% off coupons that I could have.

She responded, "I have a ton of them. I can put them with the plague if I find it."

No thanks mom, I do not want the plague.

(I had asked her to look in some boxes of mine she has for a PLAQUE I am looking for)

[bania]

Awww Kevin your grandpa sounds awesome. Happiest of Birthdays to him.

[iamali]

Happy birthday to your grandpa!

I wish I had had the opportunity to have the whole "grand parent experience".

My random is that today is my Friday and these next three hours couldn't go by fast enough even if I stepped into a time machine right this second.

[luckyval]

I'm kind of brain dead this PM, too much work and drama this week.

I'm currently picking over work and pinning thanksgiving projects to do with Hart tomorrow on my day off.

[koopa17]

Aww, Happy Bday Grandpa Arnold!

Omg I have the worst mouth ulcers right now and I can barely eat or talk. I've had a ton throughout my life but it's never been like this. I don't know if it's the location or if it somehow got infected...can that happen? And, I dislocated my jaw a couple years ago and the way I am having to talk/eat right now is making it hurt again. I just want to lay around and eat ice cream

[Alyssa]

I was getting gas for the car at lunch and picked up my Dr. Pepper from the top, the lid instantly came off like in the picture. 




....and the cup dropped right into my lap.  I got about 1/3 of the soda and some ice in my lap, now I'm sitting at my desk with a soggy crotch.  I'm not too happy about that.

Three friends came over for lunch today and Oliver was an angel. I'm so proud of him for making me look good in front of them. He cried for 45 minutes straight after they left, but while they were here we all maintained the illusion that I have this mom thing on lockdown. Honestly, that's all I ever want from my kids. Lol.

[picaflora]

I may kill DH.

I've had the cold from hell this week, and while it's not getting any worse, it's not really getting any better yet either. He offered to pick up our 2yr old niece from daycare today so SIL can work with MIL at the family business for an event tonight. Except... he realized walking out the door this morning that he has a meeting out of town and isn't sure if he'll be back in time. Fine, no big deal, I'll leave a little early and go get her.

DH and SIL have been talking this afternoon, and decided neice would stay the night with us tonight, and we'd get her to daycare in the morning. I'm not really ok with this... I haven't been sleeping well and have a hard enough time getting myself ready and out the door on time. She also likes to wake up around 5am for no real reason. I swear he better be on the ball in the morning with getting her ready, and prepared to get up with her if she does get up early. I am too tired to deal.

[VeryViolet]

My baby wants to eat and sleep on me only today. I can put him in the moby but the one thing I really need to do is bleach the shit out of one more bathroom. I can't exactly do that with the baby in tow. I am hoping this is just a growth spurt or something. He usually wakes himself up is he sleeps while being held. He likes to stretch out.

[TrickyBob]

I'm so stoked for January. I found more Maple trees in my yard so I can collect more sap.

My baby keeps doing this at the doctors office. He just laid there and happily looked around for the nurses while they weighed and measured him at his 2 week checkup. The nurse practitioner kept telling us how sweet he was during his exam. We get home and uncontrollable crying and anger but at least the medical professionals think I am on top of it.

Lol, there's a plus!

The parent of one of my students brought me a huge plate of (still warm) homemade Vietnamese spring rolls. NOM NOM NOM!

[chickadee77]

@stpete, your pup is adorable! Is he/she a dachshund?

Exactly. It's all about pr.

I am completely caught up at work and I am sitting here watching the candlelighting ceremony that we attended at Disney last year and eating candy. My co worker insisted on taking me out to lunch to my favorite Pho restaurant. I am one happy girl.

I'm so sorry @themommymonster, my son is behaving the same way lately and it has made our evenings beyond challenging.

Happy Birthday to your grandpa kevin arnold! I hope you have a great evening with him.

I've been putting off an online order, but pulled the trigger today since it's the last day of a sale.  Christmas pjs ordered!

[Deleted]

I'm teaching myself to crochet. I want to make a hat and booties for me neice (she's due mnext week). My alma mater has a HUGE game today! I can't wait!!!!

[styme46]

Went to dd's parent/teacher conference this afternoon. She's the complete opposite of me....she's a little social butterfly and constantly gets in trouble for talking. Other than that, it went really well.

I have 2 1/2 hours left until I start my 4 day weekend. Good thing I have a meeting in 30 minutes to take up some of that time since I'm pretty sure I'll be completely useless the rest of the afternoon!

[iamali]

All I can think about today is SEX.

[pantsparty]

Alaska Airlines and Delta are ending their alliance, and the result is our flights to Hawaii are fucked. We had no choice but to cancel our tickets. Ugh. So now it looks like we'll be going later next year. It could be worse, but I was really looking forward to going on a trip in January.

[cuddlyevil]

Happy birthday grampa Arnold!

I am the last person here...at least it feels that way. It is so, so quiet. Won't be tomorrow.

[ProfessorArtNerd]

I'm going to (NOT PLAYING, PROMISE!!) to the faculty/student dodgeball game tonight at the university. "What's up, motherfuckers" impulse in full effect. If none of them talk to me, I will be very sad.

[ax2]

When I left my job interview yesterday, the girl told me that I had the best resume of all of them and she'd recommend me highly to the owner. They wanted someone to start tomorrow and they haven't called. What the hell is going on?! Why do people keeping telling me how perfect I am for the position then NOT hiring me?!? I've been in the final two candidates 5-6 times now. Really stinking frustrating. I don't know what I can do better.

I wrote my son a letter for his first birthday yesterday. I'm hoping I can keep it up til he turns 18 and give them all to him at once.

[themoneytree]

Our play date snack cup nightmare continues.

My kid goes from perfectly happy to nightmare whenever another kid has a snack cup around. My friend's kid is a nightmare if he isn't clutching his snack cup. He literally had it in his hand for almost 2 hours today. When he didn't have it he was fussing. When he did have it, my kid was fussing.
It's a nightmare.

[bonquiqui]

I just got back from the store, got my 6 delicious honeycrisp apples, and realized that ol boy rang them up as red delicious. Ask me how many fucks I give, because the answer is none.



I have been sleeping so wonderfully, and it is glorious.

[simplyinpenguin]

I'm in an angry mood today...but I think these 2 issues would explain why:

I woke up a little bit ago. I went to work early this morning feeling so drained and exhausted. I wound up puking all over a checkstand. How embarrassing. They sent me home after that. But I can't help but feel that I'm going to get penalized for this, even though I had no control over it.

I'm 100% done with trying to get any sex from H. Tried last night because I was horny and needed to sleep and, instead, I wound up very sore and very frustrated. I told him he was ridiculous, he needs to see a doctor for ED, and I'm not a blowup doll to be brutally used and that human chicks do get sore after a certain period of time. He laughed at me. LAUGHED. AT. ME. Hope he enjoys his hand for the rest of his sexual years...
