DH has to have 3 wisdom teeth out, and it's scheduled for May 11. I had taken the day off anyway to recover from the half marathon, and I was really looking forward to a day of Netflix and snacks. Now I have to deal with whiny post-surgery DH. Hopefully they give him some good painkillers and he can sleep in the bedroom. I'm still getting my massage, though!

Lots of ice cream and smoothies. Honestly, when I had 2 wisdom teeth out it wasn't that bad. Hoping you don't get a super whiney H.
I had the worst night of sleep last night. And when I did sleep, I had a dream that made me feel beyond crappy. Although iammalcolmx had a cameo and tried to help me when my BFF ditched me. Thanks for trying, Mere!
This has seriously carried over into my day. And I know it's because deep down I do feel deserted by my BFF. So yay.
I'm sure she is. But too busy for the occasional message/text/call to see how I am during the worst time of my life? I'd never be too busy if the roles were switched. I know that sounds harsh, but it isn't the first time she's let me down big. I thought this time would be different. We were much younger the last time I needed her in that way.

I feel like a complete fuck-up. And, I mean, it's weird because little tiny things impact me enough that all it takes is one person saying one thing and I'm spun for like a month.
I used to be this high-performing person, somebody who got shit done, and got it done right.
Now, stuff slips through the cracks. I know this. I pick my battles. But... allllllll the stuff I do doesn't make me feel better about the occasional crack slipper.
At least there weren't zombies or murderous dolls in the dream?
My dreams last night weren't nearly as exciting as the night before. I did keep climbing and then sliding down a giant inflatable slide, but no horror movie aspects arrived.
I dreamt last night that I was in The Walking Dead and then one of my MBA classmates betrayed me and killed me and turned me into a zombie. I think I need to do yoga before bed or something.
I found out that a storm is brewing at the job today. (NOT INVOLVING ME) I wonder if I'm allowed to show up for the storm with my bag of popcorn and my Coke. Because this will be me later today ...

Can i join you at this table? I've been making the stupidest mistakes at work lately. I almost feel like i need to explain to my boss that I'm really not this careless and am just in a bad patch.
Spent last week in Milwaukee for a conference, so very pleasantly surprised by the city. Lots of lovely architecture and good food/beer. A good experience to counteract my Yankee/New England snobbery.
Back in the office, tons of pressure due to the retirement/transition to new boss. I think he'll be good overall for changes, but since he's pushing all financial work onto my plate, lots of changes to my procedures and learning all the stuff my current boss has kept close to her chest for the past 7yrs. Need to go back to Milwaukee for more beer.

YOU WERE HERE AND DIDN'T TELL ME?! I mean, meet up potential aside, I totally could have hooked you up on the food scene.

Where did you go?
I didn't know!! I'm so bad at keeping track of where everyone is, sigh I was at the Hilton City Center, so both places were in walking distance. Did the Rock Bottom Cafe on the Riverwalk (loved the Naughty Scotsman), and Mo's Irish Pub on Wisconsin. Also managed to get an Usinger sausage at the airport for breakfast when we left, yum!
Work is crazy. But like...kinda good crazy? Like new stuff getting dropped on my plate and I'm just BARELY keeping up with it, but once I get the hang of this new stuff I think it'll be fine crazy?
It's nice knowing my bosses have confidence in my abilities. I really like working here.
On a less happy note - remember when I complained about MH not getting shit done on anything close to approximating his OWN suggested schedule. Yeah, now it's my turn to be in the doghouse. I was supposed to get the rest of the laundry room painted over the weekend, and I did NOTHING. Instead of working when shorti napped, I worked for about 20 minutes and then also took a nap. Mama was tired. *sigh* We're never going to get this shit done.
I got a pity invite for my cousin's wedding. Other cousins were invited from out of town (we are not out of town) and one of them is staying with me that weekend. I asked my sisters if they got an invite. No. Cousin posted a pic of her bridal shower and my sister called her out (everyone else had gotten their invite a week ago). Big TK no no from what I remember from those days. I never said anything because I was not about to ask for an invite.n I remember people doing that to me for my wedding and it would piss me off. Yesterday I got a message from my aunt saying they sent an invite, which I received yesterday addressed to me, DH, and my two sisters who do not live with me. The invite was sent via Fed Ex the same day my sister said something. That tells me we for sure weren't originally invited. Either way I was going because I was a plus one on the RSVP the cousin that is staying with me sent. Awkward.
