Today is my five year wedding anniversary. I just now ordered a gift for MH off Amazon and paid for Saturday shipping to get it tomorrow. I plan to tell him it totally was supposed to come in today!
Oops! Should be a good save there though jojoandleo!
Adding to your FFFC, I am horrible at remembering bdays and getting cards mailed out in time. My neice's bday was Tuesday. She turned 11. I called her and ended up leaving a message that night, but I have yet to send a card and gift card out. I'll bet I'm not her favorite aunt
FFFC-some moms get sooooo into their kids bday a. Themes, cool venues, special elaborate cake, food etc. it's so expensive and time consuming. planning things like that just stresses me out. We're having a cowboy themed party at the park with snacks and juice boxes on a thursday evening Cheap and fun. And easy!!!!
They kicked mortgage guy out of our business group and I'm so relieved (he and I dated briefly about 1 1/2 years ago). I don't care about our dating past but he's a huge flake, doesn't follow up on referrals. Late to every meeting or didn't show at all, etc. I think we can now get someone in there who really appreciates the value of a group like that!

I just placed ANOTHER order with Nordstrom. This time I got a gray (initially spelled "grey" and was immediately filled with shame) long-sleeved bodycon dress and a black faux-leather jacket. If I keep up with my working out and eating right my ass is going to look awesome!
I also got some matching underwear for some bras that I purchased and a pair of cognac riding boots.
I don't think this is flameful, but I don't think I'll see the guy I went out with last night again. He was really nice, and I had a generally good time, until he found his roommate at the event we were at, and then proceeded to invite the roommate to hang out with us. I wonder about his lack of judgement when it comes to the friends he chooses. His roommate was blitzed out of his mind, and generally douche-bag material. Yet Dude I was with thought everything he said was funny and awesome, and it wasn't. Towards the end of the night, roommate said the N word abotu 10 times in a 2 minute span, so I had to shut it down because apparently it wasn't an issue with the dude I was with.
errr....sorry dude, you seem nice, but you lack good judgement.
Ummm...something flameful....ok, this isn't flameful, but it makes me feel royally stupid.
So I am pretty sure that one of my car keys was actually in my car when it was stolen. It wouldn't have been super obvious to a thief, and they still would have had to break in to the car to find it, but yeah. It's tucked into the owners manual, which is inside a bag, which I am 99% certain is in my trunk since I can't find it and I remember taking it down to my car a few weeks ago.

Apparently one of the single girls in our pub group is bitter about being single, and feels like she should get more "attention" from the guys in our group because of it. I have a huge problem with that, because she kind of shit on the other single (but in a serious relationship) girl, but also because I have a hard time with someone who views extra attention from my husband as her consolation prize. That's not the flammable part. Most of us believe she's not in a relationship because she's a huge drama queen who has to be the center of attention. DH said that his XW was like that, so I've been pointing out the ways that she's similar to his XW. That might be flammable, but I don't care. I'm not going to sit back while some other woman tries to monopolize my H's attention!

I'm debating on re-reading The Rules. I pulled it out when xh and I split and I think i need to bring it out again as my 2x4 reminder to STOP CHASING GUYS !!!

My favorite aunt did this all the time. In fact, Tuesday was my 40th birthday and I think it was the first time she remembered on the actual day. I got a text from her that she was slammed at work but wanted to wish me a happy birthday. I replied, "I love that you finally remembered on the actual day!"
Yesterday my therapist asked me when my feelings/needs got to be thought of first. I didn't have a good answer. Definitely flameful. But I feel good that DH and I have a deadline now and I'm in my own place. And that he's trying meds, although that's more about him than me.

I have a flameful! I never wear sunscreen. I know I should and I buy it and I mean too but I just dont. Typically, I will sometimes try to spray my tattoo but that's about it. Since I am now several shades darker than I started the summer, I will try too but just because I don't want to get dark.
I know it's horrible but actually...I barely know anyone who wears sunscreen. Except my mom. Who lectures me ALL the time and she is right.

I'm guilty of this too. I'm great about putting it on my kids, but horrible at wearing it myself.

I will lecture you too!
You will age prematurely and your skin cancer risks increase. Melanoma is scary as fuck, you don't want it. My Dad is in remission, but it was scary.

I'm almost done weaning from pumping breast milk, and did it for mostly selfish reasons. I want to be able to start losing the baby weight, and I want to start having comfortable sex again. My supply was low and she was getting a lot of formula anyway, seems to like it fine, and I'm sick of pumping so I was like ehhhhh.
I feel like I'm supposed to not care about my Mom-bod because I just had a bayyyybeeee. But I care, and I hate it!!!
I'm taking an online class and it is driving me bonkers! Its supposed to be more of a history/sociology class but its slowly morphing into a Poli Sci class and it is making me stabby. If I have to read the term nation-state one more time this week I'm going to snap! I have an assignment due on sunday and I am dreading having to write it. I'm going to need a fluff class after this one to give my brain a break.

What's the class called? A lot of the political economy and political sociology areas of sociology have some overlap with polio sci. Those were some of my least favorite classes, even though it's a major aspect of my research.
