1) My bosses boss is coming to town today. I really don't like him. He's a total schmuck of a yes man. My boss always ants us to bring any concerns or questions we may have to him. NOPE. I do not trust him.
2) I got a new debit card in the mail from my bank yesterday. Except the account number it's for is not mine. Or H's. Or even MILs. So calling to figure this out should be fun. I really like my bank, but I'm troubled by this.
3) Second blood draw is this morning. Just a wee bit anxious.
We were in the car yesterday driving down a main street, and there was an SUV in front of us. Suddenly the driver opened her window and threw out a ripped-up sheet of paper and pieces were flying everywhere.
Seriously. Who the fuck does that? You really needed to dispose of that garbage RIGHT FUCKING NOW that you thought it was necessary to just throw it all over the fucking street?
MH flipped his lid at this stupid asshole (in the car, I mean - we didn't yell directly at her, although I pulled up alongside her so we could give her dirty looks). "We're living in a society here!!!!!" (simpsongal)

I am really having to dig deep to think generous and kind thoughts toward my sister. Please God, let this heightened sense of entitlement end after she walks down that aisle.
mbcdefg , I really wish you would have yelled that at them!
Me too!
Although nowadays I'm afraid that these assholes all have guns and would shoot me
My favorite thing to do is just shake my head at people. It makes me feel better. I did that to a lady once who didn't stop when I was trying to cross the street and she was so mortified she kept mouthing "I'm sorry" as she drove slowly past.
A friend of mine last night told me I need to get a camper so I can take Arrow and go to the lake on weekends to hang with them and other friends. I told her I couldn't take care of one more thing. The camper would need cleaned after every trip, laundry carried in and done, bed remade, etc. She thinks I'm crazy, but maybe I am. I'm single, so I take care of everything, all cleaning, all laundry, yard work, pet care, bills, etc. I work 40-50 hours a week, practice archery 3-4 times a week, and coach once a week. I know I'm the only one who makes a mess in my house and I don't have anyone else to cook for, so theoretically it's easier, yet I feel tapped out because I'm the only who can do all of it.
@followyourarea can't you just use a tent? Wyatt can be a pain in the tent, but it's totally fine.
Sure. I haven't tent camped in probably 15 years, but it would be my preference. I think Arrow would do fine in a tent and it would be a ton easier for me. I'm not sure if I can tent camp among the pop up and travel trailers though.
Ugh. Work wants me to work full time temporarily. I'm exempt, but HR has offered me a $300 stipend. LOFL. No. Try again.
I did request a lap top so I can do shit at home, but if this pregnancy is in the right place I'm going to start feeling like shit soon and this is horrible timing.

I'm soooo frustrated with a seller on Etsy. I sent her a message asking about a bday shirt for my 2 year old. She was super responsive, was excited about my ideas for color changes, said she'd send me a proof and that she could easily deliver by party day. I ordered and paid NINE days ago and haven't heard from her since.
At this point I've given up the idea of having a shirt for DD. I don't have the energy to find another seller and really don't want to have to deal with getting my money refunded!! :/

I'm rather sad to say the bathroom did not come with the statue. In other news, we have spent SOOOO much money in the past week. We started throwing money at things after a hellish ordeal with the mortgage company (and our realtor not being helpful at all) put us way back in our plans.
hamster, is this your regular ob or a fertility clinic? My ob/gyn saw enough "normal" people that she had no urgency about something like this ..fertility clinics know better. On a busy day - when they had tons of people ripening (lol) at the same time, I would sometimes get a call at 7 p.m. but I always got a call.
It's a regular OB. It's one of few and probably the busiest in town. It's probably not a high priority. Even if my numbers aren't good it's not like we can do anything about it tomorrow anyway.

@shoegal I'm so sorry. I totally get it too. There's an "Adrian" type at my office and I was the only on to shut him down on DV "jokes" and even had a founder of the company try to explain the "jokes" to me so I wouldn't be so upset and HR tell me I couldn't expect his behavior to change. But that's exactly the point. His behavior in the office in professional meetings has to change.
