I don't want to go to work today. No reason other than I just don't want to.
My annual review is coming up and I have to fill out my self evaluation. It is so dumb. They never use it so why do I have to fill it out. Just give me my 2% (what everyone gets no matter what) and call it good.
I'm laying on the couch because H was away for work last night which means I can't sleep in bed. I have to say, our couch isn't half bad to sleep on. He comes home late tonight and as soon as he does I'm going to collapse into bed. I really need to get over this "can't sleep alone" thing.
I had a weird sex dream about Billy Bob Thornton. Dude us older than my mom.
I grew some balls yesterday and quit working with my brother, money isn't everything and I am sick of having to appease family members. Plus, I posted one night about money and addiction issues with him so it has just been an all around nightmare the past two months. He called me at 9:30 last night to bitch about me purchasing tile, and I finally was like what the fuck, I can't work with you because you are nuts. So he will run his own crew right into the ground and I can continue running the business and do my own renovations without him. I don't even feel bad, I know my dad does and wanted me to drag him along in this venture but I just can't. He's 30 and eventually needs to stand on his own two feet.
I now have a free day and we are going to Jax's bffs house for the day to relax.
I'm adding a complaint to my ransoms that I know Walter has a gimpy leg in a cast, but I really need him to figure out how to position himself in the damn litterbox with it! Every time he pees it's 20 minutes of clean up because only half of it goes in the box : (
the guy we bought this house from must've planted a tree every year. Even with taking those down, we'd still have 30 or so trees on a 2/3rds acre lot. :/
Wow, that's a lot of trees!
DS has learned to give hugs and kisses and it is just SO sweet when he runs up to us at full speed and does it. (heart)
Only one more star to go before Friday to keep Starbucks gold level. TBH, after four days straight of it, I'm kind of getting sick of Sbux at this point, lol.
I have a phone call tonight with this researcher from Georgia Tech who's doing his thesis on how social media is related to health and wellness. So that should be interesting.

I thought you got out of the family business altogether? Am I mis-remembering?
I was recently promoted at work and now that I'm a manager, I've started transitioning some of my duties to people on my team. One of the girls on my team wants to do everything by herself instead of sitting with me to learn it. I thought I'd be cool with giving stuff away but I feel like she's messing with my baby. Control freak, party of 1.
My manager applied for another position in our very large company and is transfering out of the division. He spent a lot of time telling me yesterday how it was about him getting the right development training and he didn't have the correct support in this position. I feel like he's giving up on us and running away (our branch is having some serious production issues that put sales in a tough position.) I'll miss him. I'm also worried about who is taking his position.
My mom loves Kiera Knightley and has suckered my sister and I into going to her new movie tonight. My husband read me a synopsis last night. It's going to be a long couple of hours.

Nope, there are multiple familiy businesses(as if one wasn't bad enough, lol). I got out of the one with my aunts last week, broke up the partnership with my brother last night.

Someone I was good friends with in undergrad just shared a "Dr." Megan Heimer article on FB and said "There's some really good information in here." She's a chiropractor and also shared it on her work page. I hate when I can no longer respect someone I once liked
In all fairness, that's really cheap--it would take down 8 very very large, very inconveniently placed trees, one smaller one, and clean up another one in rough shape.

For 8 trees? OK, I change my answer. That is cheap. We paid $1,500 to take down 3 big but easy trees last year and $2500 to take down 3 other, slightly more difficult, trees the year before.

My H met Billy Corgan and Ice-T the other day. Normally I'm not really jealous of what he does (tour life isn't really for me), but this is pushing that a little. He even got to pet Ice-T's doggies
There's an Activia commercial that has annoyed me for a while, and I finally figured out why this morning - I really don't like it when grown people say the word 'tummy.' It's so babyish for an adult to say (unless you're saying it to a kid, obviously).
My period started yesterday and now the cramps have started full-force. I miss the days when I could just curl up in bed or on the couch with the heating pad and silently curse nature that men do not endure anything like this, but I have to actually take care of my kids, so there goes that plan.
Plus the kids want to go to the pool today, the last place I want to be the first couple days of my period which have been really heavy lately. ugh
I posted my Jeep last night on craigslist. I had some asshole call me FOUR times at 3am. I didn't answer the phone, but it still woke me up. The first time, he left a voicemail, then tried calling again every 10 minutes. Seriously, dude?!
I'm trying to sell a car, and found out in the process that it had been totaled before we bought it and the previous owner didn't disclose this information. I feel cheated; we paid too much for it in the first place, and now and now it's going to be hard to sell.
Does your state have Lemon Laws? You may be able to recover something if so.
We are going on vacation this weekend, sort of. MIL rented a house on the Cape from Sat-Sat next week and I can't spare more than 2 days of vacation time, so we are going from Sat-Tues. But still, 4 days at the beach sounds really nice.
Unfortunately SIL and her GF are going to be there too and they...are not my favorite people. So I'm hoping it will be not too bad.
I hope it rains today. H is working outside and if it rains he has to come home. I am too tired to deal with my teething fussy baby alone. I need a nap.
An intern that I've never interacted with is asking coworkers if I'm dating anyone. I don't even know how he would know me, we're on different floors, never crossed paths, etc.
@stpete, have you PIPd your nose piercing? I want to see it!
My friends are trying to talk me into running a 10k over Labor Day weekend. I signed up for it last year and then backed out. I'm strongly considering trying to redeem myself this year. Ugh.
I ran a quick 2 miles last night and thought I was going to die. It was so humid and hot. Ugh, I hope it is cool on Saturday morning for my race. i am getting nervy.
