I am dragging this morning. I was awake before my alarm, got up and got my work out in. This morning was really rough since my car is getting inspected and I had to drive H to work, I had to be up finished with my work out and ready for work by 6:45. I am in need of a nap.
And I forgot to take my Flonase last night so I am coughing a lot this morning. Thank you allergies!

My work turned into a total shit show last night. We had to completely replace one persons wedding dress because the hem was cut like it was drunk. (Thank god we had the dress in her size)! After that a crazy lady got mad at me because some beads were a tiny bit loose on her dress. (Calm yourself, I'll fix it in less than 10 min). The capstone to my evening was a special kind of hell. A lady screamed at me because the dress didn't fit. Would you like to know why it didn't fit? Because I did the fitting on her sister and they had not told me. (Same bridesmaid dress, different human beings). When I tried explaining how it makes a difference she tried to tell me I obviously didn't know anything about fabric construction and sewing. SERIOUSLY?!?! You're dumb and rude.
I walked out the door and said to my boss "it is alcohol time!"
I'm going back in today even though it is my day off. We have so much shit to get done.
Ugh captainmel that really sucks. All of it. I'm sorry.
Today I have to go to an orientation after work for the research project our interns will be doing. It's am info session for all of the interns' supervisors. Then I'm going to dinner with a friend (the one who just got married and wanted to set me up with wedding guy).

I walked into work to an email from an irate parent. I had confirmed an appointment for her daughter with clergy for bat mitzvah prep. First issue was the mom didn't realize that the parents were to be at this practice. She threw a fit about her husband and short notice (I emailed Monday, appt was for Wed.).
Yesterday mom and daughter show up for the appt and the clergy member apparently didn't know about the meeting. Despite it being in 2 different calendars - one of which is on his phone. But it's my fault, according to the parent so I'm the one who got reemed.
Oh, asshole cat found a new way to escape last night through one of the kitchen windows. The screen can be pushed on and sort of hinge open, then it closes again. I looked for him when I discovered it but couldn't find him. Wedding guy offered to come help me look. Then I went back out about 45 min later and found him. He cried when he saw me and got neat me as quickly as possible. Oy that cat.
Yesterday was a beautiful day so I met a friend for dinner/drinks on a patio. We hadn't caught up in a while so it was really good to see her. And it was so nice to sit outside and not feel like I was melting.
I'm disappointed that us people are not going to get scienced today. Whomp whomp.
cuddlyevil, I've been way behind on fashion week coverage! I need to catch up.
Muddled, are you OK with hot glue and staples? Send me your measurements.
It's not online yet, but I'm quietly in love with Edeline Lee's SS2015 collection. The colors are brilliant and I want almost everything that I've seen (she did a showroom paired with a high-end paint company, so the rooms & garments were color coordinated). There were a few others that were lovely too, but her line was my favorite. Reem Acra's show was apparently brilliant too, but I haven't seen it yet.
Thanks. I don't like infighting. I feel uncomfortable.
Regardless, I can science you if you want, kaneen. What would you like to know? How the flu shot conjugate is determined? Perfect vs imperfect use of contraceptives? How an outbreak is determined?
Day 3 of our search for the "brown hicken". A quarter sized reusable plastic sticker that A is obsessed with. There is a whole farm set she carries around all day, all smashed in her fist but the damn chickens are always running off and getting lost. This is my life now.
I had a dream that I only had 3 weeks to go and the baby's room wasn't at all ready. I had to wake up and double check my ticker, but I think that dream was the motivation I need to get my butt in gear.

Just had to send an e-mail to my insurance agent. My monthly premium was taken from my account yesterday and it was $30 more than it should have been. Not happy.
I woke up at 3am. Could not get back to sleep until 5:30.. when I usually get up for Yoga. It didn't happen. So I'm leaving working a few minutes early to catch a 545 class.

I turned my alarm off this morning. I overslept and DS woke up early and wanted to snuggle. As we were laying there he asked me what my favorite thing in the world is. When I asked him back he said "my favorite thing in the whole world is you. My Mom." I love that kid!
Then we almost missed his bus. But it was worth it!
