I am waiting for dh (colonoscopy day!) and need a distraction.

Let's do this. DISTRACT ME.

Last time dh had one of these, it was on a Friday afternoon. The hospital walls feel like they are constantly vibrating, and it gave me heart palpitations.

So I went out for a margarita. #wifeoftheyear

I second Lucille Bluth's opinion that there should be a bar in the hospital lobby.

RIGHT?!?!?!?

I'm thinking of buying some whiskey in little bitty bottles to put in my 1 quart Ziploc of carry-on liquids for my flight home on Sunday...


Why does AA offer free wine and beer in coach for long-haul flights, but not liquor?! So not fair.

I get irrationally pissed off when police officers run stop signs, turn or switch lanes without turn signals, tailgate people on highways, etc. If their lights are flashing that's one thing, but I feel like I am constantly seeing police officers breaking driving laws. Shouldn't they be the ones setting a good example?

ETA: I feel like this is UO/flameful because a. some police officers do much worse things in some cases and that deserves people to be pissed off at them and b. some police officers are amazingly dedicated/good people but I pretty much roll my eyes at all of them now.

Last year when my mom was in the hospital she was finally sleeping when I got there. My dad and I went and got day drunk while I waited for her to wake up. It was the most fun I've had with my dad in a long time.

Talking on the phone, too (not hands free).  That one I see all the time.

Also, I feel like a tool everytime I post to wyatts instagram. Who has an account for their dog?!?! But I also kind of dig it. And I know my facebook friends will appreciate it. I can share his cuteness with the world without overwhelming their feeds.

If being a tool for maintaining an Instagram for your dog is wrong, I don't EVER want to be right.

Oh and a random - I had been following the story of MB on ML to see if it would turn into a catfish. The night the catfishing reveal went down was of course the night DH convinced me to catch up on shows on the DVR with him. When I realized I missed it I was like nooooooooo damn Murphy's Law!

I guess my UO is that I would sooooo much rather see people's pet pictures than baby pictures. I would never hide a facebook friend over posting too may pet pictures, but I do hide people if they post non-stop about their babies.

I have a friend who is a cop who used to drink while driving (meaning, he'd be driving down the street drinking from a can of beer) when off-duty because he knew he would get away with it if he was pulled over.

I've lost a lot of respect for cops as a result of my friend being a cop

My husband got pulled over twice last week -- once in a car and once on a bike.  He used his PBA card to get out of the bike ticket.  I think that PBA cards are ridiculously corrupt and all of that (popular opinion, here at least?  but certainly unpopular among my husband's friends, most of whom have used them to get out of many tickets including DUIs).  But also, if you're going to use the stupid corrupt card, why use it on the stupid bike ticket instead of the car violation that includes points and such?

I'm on DH's shit list today. It was POURING this morning when I left for work. I could not find my umbrella anywhere, so I stole DH's. He of course texts me when he's about to leave the house all "umm, did you take my umbrella?", and I admit I couldn't find mine. He texts back a few minutes later "I see yours in the backseat of the car, but I can't find the car key...where is it?". Umm, I have that too

So DH had to walk 10 minutes to the subway in the pouring rain. I'm the worst.

Oooh. Yeah, this kind of thing would land my H in husband jail.

You should bring him home a nice treat tonight. Poor mr.scm!

v what was the bike ticket for? It is one of my life missions to get a speeding ticket on my bike. I will frame it.

On the plus side, I can go get a flu shot today at the walk in tent.

Running a red light (he had stopped completely, but then went through it).  Apparently he saw two other bikers get tickets for the same thing/place the next day so they must be cracking down!

I think it would be pretty much impossible to get a speeding ticket on a Citibike, particularly on Manhattan streets where you can't get much momentum going before you have to stop

I know! I'm not sure why I thought that was ok! I will definitely bring him home a treat tonight. I would murder him if he did that to me.

You should bring home tacos for dinner!!!

I'm starting to get worried about working part time next week. I don't feel like my workload has slowed down at all and I'm paranoid that I won't be able to keep up working 3 days a week, and that work will creep into my days home with my DD. And that Boss Lady wI'll be impossible to work for part time.

[awkwardpenguin]

I started Weight Watchers earlier this week and I'm having a hard time getting into the swing of it. I hate the feeling of second guessing every eating choice. I'm sure it will get easier over time but it's taking a lot of mental energy right now.

Confession: I get really happy when I find out posters I think are awesome are also plus size. I think it's my minds way of soothing myself about how plus sized people (and therefore me) can be awesome too.

I'm really starting to judge this couple for the wedding I'm going to this weekend. The forecast is a high of 42 and rain. H just saw the wedding venue and the plan is for the whole wedding and reception to be outside or in a barn (shell with no insulation or heat, huge cracks between board etc) and there's no real indoor backup. Ugh. Do people not think about these things when planning? Can I show up with a thermos of coffee and Baileys?

[melmo1122]

The lady who works for me quit today by giving 1 week notice to my boss even though I am her manager. I am younger than her and she has never respected me as her manager. She hasn't said one word to me today. Well my boss does not like her and is letting her go today at 3pm. So take that!
