FRIDAY! Randoms

[shamrockshake]

It's my last day of work before vacation!!!! <) <) (hot) (hot) <)

[cuddlyevil]

I'm solo in the office today. And sonehow I need to get two filing cabinets assembled on my own.

[ginger]

Half day Friday! I was going to work longer to make up time for missing Monday, but Fuck this week.

[blondemoment123]

This week dragged on forever. Bright side: my boss is making breakfast for this crack of dawn meeting.

[ProfessorArtNerd]

Can't even be mad that this dude woke me up early this morning. I love him so much, I can't believe I was ever thrown by the fact that he's a boy

[frkls]

I had an ML in real life moment just a second ago. Dh and I crossed paths in the bathroom where he observed me flush without putting the lid down. (We were talking and I was distracted) he asked me about it and I said something about poop particles and he said he doesn't love me anymore and walked back into the bedroom

[FastHands]

I got a bunch of random likes on the Boating it By comment on Laz's post from Feb. I'm guessing it got linked somewhere last night, but I was very confused. Lol. I thought I'd participated in a thread last night and blocked it out or something.

[whiskeyandwine]

Lol Fasty. I read that thread last night after it was linked in the GFM thread.

It's Lallopalooza (I never spell that right....) in my neighborhood this weekend. Ugh.

I'm having a mid-life crisis. I'm considering quitting my job at the end of Aug. I don't yet have anything else lined up. Being an adult is hard.

[FastHands]

Oh and I twerked in the shower last night. lol

[Bernadine]

I swear, the worst part about being an adult is that every shitty thing happens at once. Our renters have stopped paying their full rent, all the IF shit, a million weddings and showers, and now I have an escrow deficiency. We can pay $2000 and have our payments increased by $100, or if we can't pay the $2000, our payments are increased by $270. WTF.

[kwx2]

Walked in to a huge mess this morning at work. A house fire, which had an explosion, and all the people are coming in to our hospital. It has been balls to the wall since 6:45 am. Gonna be a long ass day!

[mom2twoboys]

Waiting on my couch that is going in the basement to be delivered. I have a window time of 7:55-9:55am. I never have seen a delivery before 8 before. I am excited for this so we can watch TV on the new TV we bought for down there.

My in-laws will he here this afternoon! The kids are so excited.

VIP or it didn't happen.

Also, if I'd tried that I'd be posting from the hospital.

haha the world doesn't need videos of those things separately, let alone in combination.

And as to your second point, I did have a moment of consideration that it was not, perhaps, the best idea in the world. lol

I felt the same way about having a girl as our second. I was convinced we were having another boy. I was like, a giiirrrl? Wtf am I gonna do with a girl? Lol.

Now I can't imagine life without her.

When we found out DS was a boy I was so freaked because " I don't know what to do with a boy!" But now I can't imagine why I felt that way. Wouldn't have it any other way

[isabel]

Well, night one of no swaddle actually went pretty well. I think DH had a rough time around midnight and getting him to bed was hard, but the rest of the night was pretty good. Of course, I couldn't get him back to sleep after he woke up at 5:30, so he's in there screeching and talking to himself now. Lol

My boss is out today, so I plan to head out right at 11. MIL suggested I use the massage gift card she got me this afternoon. I hope they have an opening. 80 minutes of massage, no talking, and no baby? Yes, please!

[jreeds]

I'm off today. Packing & cleaning. I just want to throw it all away and start fresh with new stuff,lol! That's not going to happen obviously but I will definitely be doing some purging today.

[nsl]

Add me to the list of "was totally freaked out at the prospect of raising a boy" posters, but I really wouldn't change mine for the world. Just prepare yourself for fart humor. So much fart humor.

I had a really lovely dinner last night with an old friend, but am draaaaaagging this morning.

Lol truer words have never been spoken!

The last time we had a babysitter was July 5th. I could reaaaaalllly use one this weekend. But it is moving weekend in our college town so everyone is busy. We were suppose to get one last weekend but Leo was sick so we cancelled.

We have had lunches out or whatever but I need a break from the evening song and dance. This kids (read Leo) are wearing me down.

Thankfully next weekend we are getting a weekend away. I just need to power through until next Friday.

I was walking down the hall at work and the heel if my shoe snapped at the base.

The shoes are fucking Valentino. This should not happen.

I have had them for a while but don't wear them often because they're so expensive. I'm pissed. I have no idea if Nordstrom will take them back. I don't think they make this style anymore.

[wildfloweragain]

Bryan Adams date tonight with my H.

You may recall this was "his" fathers day gift after he ignored mothers day. Win for me!

[wambam]

Today is going to be a great day off! I'm going to do my sad "can't use my arms" workout, then my H and I are going hiking. Once he wakes up i'm going to convince him we need Mexican and I'm pretty sure he'll agree.

[BaliHai]

The pediatrician said we could give L a dose of Benadryl last night for her bee sting, so we did, and she still woke up at midnight and ended up in our room. lol. Nothing will ever make this child sleep from the time she's put down until it's time to get up in the morning (not that I was counting on it, cough). Her face looks great today, though - you can't even tell anything happened except for a tiny dot by her eyebrow where the bee got her.

The entire time I was putting L in her car seat this morning, a goose was standing in the parking lot hissing at me (Eagles). I have no idea what I would have done if it had come after me. Probably gotten attacked.

I'm so glad it's Friday.

Oh! If anyone remembers I posted a few weeks ago about my dad and skin cancer. He got the biopsy results back-basal cell carcinoma, it's all in one spot and it's going to be removed August 5. Thank you to everyone who chimed in with their experiences and good thoughts. ❤️
He's now slathering himself in sunblock and wearing a ridiculous hat .

[aprilsails]

I'm hosting a bachelorette pool party and lunch at my house this afternoon. It's 8:30 and the house is spotless, the food is all prepped and I am about to jump in the shower.

Unfortunately, I am 37 weeks pregnant and cannot drink through this whole event and feel like I've been hit by a truck. I woke up at 4:30 for no good reason and am going to have to keep it going until at least midnight. I was almost ready to cry as I was putting the sangria fruit in wine this morning.

[lilafowler]

Also I had a really good month work-wise-I had 2 projects go live that went pretty smoothly and my monthly productivity stats are at 99% (they want an average of at least 96% to show we're meeting our service levels). I identified a couple of potentially significant gaps in our product and initiated mini projects to get the information properly updated. Yeah me!
I was talking to my manager about how I felt really good about the past month and he said "You've done awesome-now just keep doing it month after month!"
Womp womp. Lol.

I'm jealous ... not because of Lollapalooza (also spelling challenged) but because I was in Chicago a couple of weeks ago and fell in love with the place. I want to be THERE and not HERE. So much good food. (I'm assuming there's only one.)
