It's been soooo slow lately, so I figured we could use some randomness!
~I've been taking the dog out for a walk late at night (since it's been soooo hot out) and I've noticed a lot of my neighbors have full living rooms in their garages. Seriously, couches, recliners and TVs. This is weird, right?
~I don't get a lot of trendy stuff! I seriously just don't understand the huge bug-eyed sunglasses, Uggs or guys who wear loooonnng shorts which meet their pulled up socks (mid-calf).
~I need to refinance my car loan so XH can buy a house....I really wish I was a bitchy bitch and refused to do so just to fuck with him....but instead, I'll smile, bite my tongue and take it up the ass (interest-wise) to get him off of the loan.
~I put a down payment on my trip to Mexico today! I'm soooo excited to have a kid-free vacation, it's not even funny. I'm a little woe-is-me about being the only single person going, but at the same time, I get the whole beautiful room to myself and my couple friends aren't really coupley anyway.
~I wanted to cry on and off most of yesterday. First because of a really sweet email and then mostly because DD is 13. The first 13 years have gone by in a blink of an eye and she's a few short years away from being an adult. I want to put life on pause for a little bit!
I can be a really sucky friend at times. My friend who is going to be separating from her husband really needed me last weekend and I flaked. There was a reason behind my flaking but too long to type out. She told me last night when we were out that she cried all day on and off and felt really bad. I hate that. My BFF who lives in bmore area is having a really tough time and I should fly down there today but I don't feel like it. I know she needs me but I am being selfish and want to sleep in and not have to deal with kids while mine is with her dad.
Doris - I am not looking forward to DD growing up either. I just want her to stay young forever. I know where you are coming from.
I'm not sure how I am going to make it to December without taking any vacation time. Poor planning on my part but I am looking forward to surprising DD with another trip to Disney. She has no idea and is going to be so excited.
Doris- can't you make him pay for part of the added cost since if he wants off that loan so badly so he can buy a house???
Maybe? But I won't because I want to be the bigger person blah blah blah.
And I'm pretty sure he's buying a house with his gf....which makes me laugh because I can't help but wonder if he'll give her the house when it all falls apart like he did with wife #1 and #2 (me)!

Doris - re furniture in the garage. It's called a Polish porch where my family is from. My aunt and uncle do this ever summer. They even have a screen to cover the garage door opening to let the air in and keep the bugs out.
My Randoms - Pain sucks.
My grandpa is funny. He can't understand why I'm still at work at ten after five. I constantly have to remind him that I am not a stay at home wife/mother, that that's not an option for me, and that I work so I can pay my mortgage.
I found glitter in my bed last night and my initial thought was "did I have a stripper up in here?" and then I realized it was from a glittery gift bag that I had on the bed yesterday!

Haha! Where I live they call it the Italian living room. To be clear, this is NOT my opinion lol. I am just saying what others call it.
My randoms - I have some good friends. I told them I can't afford to go out for the weekly dinners anymore, so they tell me to come anyway and they will cover for me. Tomorrow stars the renfaire. I'm looking forward to it. I'm hoping the weather stays nice so I can take DS on Monday. I want to go out at lunch, but don't want to go anywhere that I might spend money. I'm tired of being single already.

Wow....that must have been an awesome friend who emailed you

Additional random: I just realized I must look like an idiot here most of the time between autocorrect and my inability to type on my phone. I swear in real life I can spell and don't substitute in random nonsense words.

My randoms:
I might get laid tonight. It is amusing to me that I am thinking about this like it is a business transaction or like deciding what I want for dinner.
I am also going to shoot a gun tonight. I am a mixture of terrified and excited. Mostly terrified.
I found out XBF blocked my number. This irrationally annoys me because I don't ever call or text him. Yet, he continues to text me every so often. WTF is that?!
Today is the one-year anniversary of D's and I first date. I'm wearing the same outfit today I wore then, but there is a method to this creepy-like madness. I want to see if I can still fit in these jeans... I can, but hell they're tight! Plus I haven't worn this top in FOREVER and it makes my eyes pop.
MCC-thanks for reminding me, i have a zombie run the day we get back from our honeymoon...we fly into BWI at 1 AM and i think i have to be at Dorney Park around 7 or 8, i havne't decided if i'm going to run it or have my friend do it for me again....

I think I'm ready to make a committment to exercising. It's so intimidating. Not that I haven't done it many many many times before, but I think I'm just scared. Tonight I'm going to load my MP3 player with upbeat songs and take a 3.5 mile walk tomorrow morning around the lake. If I can do that 2-3 times a week I'll be in better shape than if I didn't!
I drank with my dad last night and got really tipsy. He did too. We started talking about our family and how I appreciate them and I think I made him cry. He also brought up xBF and I started to cry. Oh emotional crap.
lol well i may still be running in them, but i won't be dressed like a zombie as i will already look like one having no sleep getting off the plane.
my running partner from work is signed up for them as well.
i told DH if i do run it and not have my other co-worker do it (he ran one for me when we had to go to DH's grandfather's funeral) to just drop me off and have my running partner drive me home since we live like 10 minutes from each other.
but i have a whole spread sheet of races, on the 23rd (and i think it's in NJ) we are doing the common sense for animals run.
