Thurs. Night Randoms

I am trying to get through the first Serial episode for, like, the 5th time. It isn't that I lose interest; I just always get interrupted by someone or something. I am determined to binge-listen to this whole series on my Christmas break.

Speaking of break, mine starts tomorrow at 2:15 PM!

I realized today that one of my co-workers has the most perfect example of resting bitch face.

[shostakovich]

Serial is the only reason I'm getting any cleaning done around the house. It's PERFECT for listening to while washing dishes, folding laundry, etc.

I went to the gym for the first time since having M tonight. I walked hills at 3.5 for 30 minutes. I hope I'm not sore tomorrow.

I am excited about ordering some pens from Staples and my EC planner for the new year! Lame party of 1 here!

I just finished Happy Valley is anyone needs an amazing, British Netflix series.

Where and how do I listen to Serial?

I just bring it up on my laptop on serialpodcast.org. There are ways to listen via iTunes and on your phone and what not, but I just use my computer, since I'm at home.

Kickboxing is kicking my ass. Everything hurts.

I'm waiting for H to go to bed so I cannwatcg AHS.

I'm watching christmas themed figure skating. It's so awesomely tacky.

I thought I'd love free Kindle books downloaded from my library. But I can't take the 21 day time pressure. I have just 40 pages left & it expires tomorrow; I will never finish-exhausted & too much other crap to do.

I LOVE when it's time to buy a new planner!

Turn your wifi off so they can't take it from you!

I think the worst thing ever has to be sorting through pictures to have printed. I hate doing it.

My MIL is in town this weekend and I am off work the next three days. I got home from work and found out that H has been pretty sick all day. I'm really sad that he's not feeling well and that it might impact what would otherwise be a really fun and relaxing weekend. I'm hoping it's just a 24 hour thing.

I feel like I got kicked in the upper part of my rib cage and like it's super bruised. The doctor said it had something to do with my ribs spreading? I don't know, but I'm incredibly uncomfortable and just want the pain to go away.

Why do things come in boxes that aren't actually rectangular? So many (I'm looking at you, Disney) have curved sides. Don't they know how hard that is to wrap?

sometimes I let my book expire on my phone's kindle app, but turn my wifi off on my kindle so it stays there and I can finish reading it.

H and I are catching up on The Big Bang Theory. We are currently on season 7 and I can't help but think that they are making Penny dumber as the series progresses. It bothers me.

[jreeds]

I just got of the phone and she let it slip the one of my aunts and my mom have been gossiping about H and I. Nothing big, speculating on why we got a new kitten (Whaaaaa?!), how DD might be doing in school, how we are doing financially...stuff like that. None of it us any of their business and we are absolutely fine in all areas. Last year we shut them all down as far as updates on us because we were sick of this shit. So now constantly assume the worst. I don't know which I hate more. Can't wait to see them all at Christmas!

Seriously, that will let me keep it?!!  Airplane mode does this, yes?

Thank you!!!

I was coming in to say the same thing! I feel a little guilty every time I do it, but I don't think it really matters on their end.

When I started dating DH and we would christmas shop for SDs. I love Christmas and I would always wrap and every year I would cuss out thr damn toy boxes. Make them all square! Ugh!

That was my main problem with the show, too. Apparently you can't be pretty and funny while also being of normal intelligence.

I just spent hours (not really) looking through netflix and still couldn't decide what to watch, so I finally just defaulted back to Gilmore Girls. Except every single person in the episode I'm on was being annoying and dumb as fuck. I got so annoyed that I had to turn it off.

I'm taking this as a sign that I should take a break from tv for awhile and read instead.

[CurlyQ284]

DH got overtime with his check today. Put it towards debt. My mom's gift came and she sent a large check. I will immediately put that towards debt too.

It is a big huge deal. I always want to pay off debt and DH always wants to get fun stuff. We had a few discussions and a fight and he is on board for the first time ever he is prioritizing debt. I think we can pay it off so we can buy a house in spring 2016. It's so much easier to be doing this together then fighting him on it all the time. I feel really good about this.

WHY CAN I NOT STOP EATING??

[snickers]

I finally have time to read and post on gbcn again!

I deep conditioned my hair tonight and its oh so soft! And it smells so yummy

[nsl]

FedEx says my Christmas present from H was delivered to our front door today. We beg to differ. H is getting unusually irate about this (especially since the one thing I asked for was like $35), which is making me worried that whatever it is was actually really expensive.

Also, after two days of being ready to set things on fire at work out of frustration and rage, I had a really good day today. Know why? I avoided all adult interaction today (except with the awesome coworkers I eat lunch with) and just focused on my students. I love kids. They make everything better.

[peachykate]

Jax's Christmas pageant was today and it was freaking hysterical. We had nose picking and eating, girls lifting up their dresses, etc. My mom and I were giggling the entire time.

[cville]

My husband is occupying the couch with his damn man cold all 3/4 asleep. No. GTFO. I want to lay down and eat ice cream. Alone. Without your germs.


I've lovingly suggested that he go to sleep in the guest room RIGHT EFFING NOW, like four times. He doesn't want to be "lonely." Awww ... GTFO.
