Thursdays Thumpthings

[doriswe]

Tell me all the random things in your world!

[doriswe]

I slept like total poop last night and am just not in the mood for work today. I'm anticipating coworker being pissy with me after she finds out the guy she was crossing lines with has been moved to another unit.

I had weird dreams last night in addition to not sleeping well.

I'm supposed to have dinner with MIA friend (and another mutual friend) tomorrow night but she's not really responding so the hell if I know if she'll actually show up.

[partiallysunny]

I'm sorry doriswe. All of that seems very anxiety inducing.

After my families last visit, I decided to take a little break from them until the holidays. Which normally isn't a problem. Except for some reason my mom is texting me trying to make plans and "oooh, come see the leaves".

Um, could you go back to ignoring me for awhile. Until, like, Thanksgiving /Christmas. Okaythanxbye.

[cuddlyevil]

My coffee is really weak.

I discovered my boss has the exact same sense of humor about the pranks she pulls as I do. BEST morning convo ever.

[bullygirl979]

That sucks, doriswe.

I have a 3 hour long conference call that starts in 10 minutes. Hold me.

[glynn]

I have been awake since 3AM...........

[bullygirl979]

Also, I'm kind of annoyed with P. We don't have joint money. I make twice as much as he does. Yes, I bought a horse. Yes, I'm buying a lot of things for my horse. Yes, there are many packages that are showing up to the house addressed to me.

He told me the other day that it is getting a little ridiculous and asked if I had a shopping addiction. Humph.

Well.....we are supposed to be saving money for a house. I told him it just seems like a lot because I order a ton of stuff and send half of it back lol.

Speaking of sending things back, chalupa I am super excited because I'll be near a Dover Saddlery next week. P doesn't know we are stopping there.

*Mostly responsible* Ha!

[tiramisu]

Ugh, I'm sorry doriswe. That's a lot to deal with in one week.

partiallysunny can't say I blame you for being a break from your family. I hope your mom gets the hint soon.

Last night was open house at work. I was ambushed to film a short video for the parents to watch. It went fine, but I hate that kind of thing. There are good things happening at work, which is what I'm choosing to focus on instead of all my kids who are still losing their shit. Tonight I'm going to a trivia night with my alumni association's local chapter. We get competitive about it because we're known locally as the nerd school. It should be lots of fun!

[doglove]

hey my name is doglove and I have a shopping addiction.

Good morning everyone. Hoping you all have a great day - tomorrow is Friday!
Tomorrow is my last day of work. Still not sure if I am happy about it, lol.

I am going today to see my niece and my new great nephew (yikes) so that should be fun.

Have a great day!

will you get cake? That's the deciding factor for me.

No cake .  I actually have been working from home 4 hrs/day because I have been out on FMLA (yeah, and got laid off most likely because of it).  So I won't even be in the office. 

I think you should buy yourself a cupcake to celebrate.

1. P needs to learn better than to judge your fun money
2. Yay for a Dover-spree! Of COURSE you're stopping. You know what M learned last time he was dragged into one? How to properly fit a cross-country vest. He can now walk around the barn (or show grounds) and help the other riders from my barn get their vests on/sized correctly. Everyone now knows to ask M if the vest they're holding will fit them correctly or not. He might not be horsey, but if a sales person tells him what to look for/do, he's set.

I'm more stopping because I have stuff to return, lol. I really don't need to buy anything from there.

Although...I did win because I bought Levi a new saddle pad. P saw him with it the other day and said "wow, he looks handsome." RECOGNIZE!

Cupcakes for EVERYONE!, lol. It's weird, this will be the first time I haven't worked since I got my first job at 14 (I'm 44)! Crazy feeling!

I know the feeling.

I stopped working and went back to school full time 2 years ago. (online - so I can stay in my pjs all day)  

While school is no picnic it is very different than having to get up and go to a job.

That's terrible

[partiallysunny]

I agree, cupcakes are in order for tillie.

[kaneen]

Now I want a cupcake. Thanks a lot.

I have got to get some financial stuff in order this weekend. I kinda hope the weather sucks so I won't be tempted to go outside and play instead of being an adult.

Do you otherwise pay house expenses equally? Trying to figure out why he's jelly

We split expenses equally, mostly because they are so low to begin with. However, when we went on Lake Placid, I covered 66% of the cost and he covered 33%.

I think he is partially jealous because he feels very under utilized and appreciated (at work). He also feels on some level that I get paid a stupid amount of money for what I do (which I happen to agree with).

Thanks, gault! We will be fine. I probably have been blowing a lot of money lately and should scale back.

He is getting a near free trip to Boston next week and he got spoiled for his birthday. Maybe I should get him a matching saddle pad to what I got Levi so he doesn't feel left out.
