I just perfectly timed bedtime with the Wild playoff game and a glass of wine. They are both in their beds (youngest is in my bed but whatever) and they have been silent for about 10 minutes. Things are looking very good for a playoff hockey buzz for the next few hours.
I had a rough day at work. The local zoo does a free Earth Day event every year that a credit union sponsors and invites exhibitors to. Even though I work for the zoo's competitor (a wildlife park very nearby), we get invited to exhibit every year.
Usually, it's a great event and I have a wonderful time. Today, not so much. Here's the highlight reel:
It rained like crazy for the first hour of the event.
The temp never warmed up like it was supposed to, so my cockroaches (the one animal I was allowed to bring) had to be taken into one of the zoo's offices to keep warm.
At one point, my pop-up tent blew away, even though it was staked and weighted.
Near the end of the event, all I had left was a felt-covered metal presentation board. Which flew off the table and whacked me in the side of the head.
I've been obsessing over when and if to have a second baby lately. I was reading the thread about it on MMM today and getting panicky then I thought, 'ok chill, you haven't even gotten your pp period yet.'
And then, literally within the hour, I got my period. Ugh!!!

I'm scared for my future.
Tonight D was jumping off a laundry hamper and I said "If I see you do that again then it's going in the garage." She turned to me and said "Well, then don't look mommy."
I'm on a mission to drink as many margaritas this weekend as possible. It is Fiesta in our city and I must contribute to the economy and celebrate accordingly.
Today I had four. Pictures of the tequila awesomeness.

I'm liking this to show my solidarity, btw. We should have babies around the same time again, that way when we actually gtg, they can be little buddies!

It's so hard not to laugh when she says something like that lol, but I have to keep a straight face. But really, I'm scared lol.

My boo Peter came over with a bottle of red, bottle of white...
He is super jealousE of kevin arnold lol. He told me he's been trying to guide me for years and I resisted but now I'll listen to KA's (superb) fashion advice.
I don't know if I missed it, or it's just not to be talked about anymore, but I don't go give a damn. What the hell happened to the JLM thing after Elle notified the police? I did not read a 100+ thread for nothing dagnabbit.
I just opened the package of contacts left at my door. I realized I hadn't bothered to mail in the rebate since I didn't open the package when it arrived. In January. No rebate for me. I am really beating myself up over it, it is $45 gone.
Sorry you'll have to eat ramen for the next few months.

Ugh, I do that type of thing all the time. And even though it's small amounts, it all adds up. I could easily justify the Tiffany and Co. sunglasses I'm eyeing if I hadn't squandered all those little bits over the year. *sigh*
Who am I kidding, I'll probably get them anyway but I hate "free" money lost.
Ok, to elaborate, I enjoy being a supervisor and doing my job, but mostly I'm stifled by upper management. So I'm sure I'll complain here and ask for advice in the future
