The "head chef" in our work cafeteria straight up walked out in the middle of cooking someone's eggs this morning. Yelled, "I'm done with this shit", and walked out. I don't know why, but I think this is hilarious.

My cw has more ailments that a 90 year old. I seriously have never seen anyone complain so much about so many different things. And people really buy into her pity party. It makes me roll my eyes.
Found out this morning I was accepted to present my dissertation at a conference in February, woohoo!

I have nothing to wear to my sister's bridal shower this weekend and I'm freaking out about it. I have tried on every dress in my size that I could find and no dice. Gah.
I haven't done C25K this week because of the storm, and I'm also not eating really well because we're just trying to eat what's left in the powerless fridge before it goes bad. I don't want to fall off the wagon and have to start over.
I'm in a really bitchy mood this morning. Not sure why. I went to bed before 11:30 PM, it's Halloween, I'm having a good eyelashes day and yet I could punch a duck. RAWR.
I resigned yesterday! I know I don't post often but I posted a few months back about my posibility of leaving my CPA firm for a local bank. It was the hardest decision of my life but I finally decided it was time to leave. It was amazing how happy I was yesterday and how good I felt physically. I didn't realize how much the stress of this decision was negatively affecting my physical well-being. I'm excited for my future...but a bit terrified as well!
We are going to dinner at a partner's house this weekend and IDK WTH to wear. The invite said casual, but none of my PP clothes fit yet but my maternity clothes are huge. And I don't think my Target yoga pants and a nursing tank would work. Ack.

There was a message on my work voicemail when I got in this morning from someone who indicated they had some substantive questions he wanted to ask me. I returned it, thinking that since this person works a couple of time zones behind me he wouldn't be in yet (he left the message earlier in the week) but that I could acknowledge his message since I had been out of the office for Sandy and let him know I was here today if he wanted to call back.
He answered.
I was completely unprepared to speak to a real person. Plus it was first thing in the AM, I hadn't had coffee yet, my brain was still in weekend mode, and I therefore was unprepared to have a substantive conversation, so I kind of panicked and hung up.
I just put a chocolate cake in the oven. I'll let it cool while I work today, and ice it this afternoon.
Yum!
Oh, and I have the three hour staff meeting from hell this afternoon. The only saving grace is that I'm a remote worker, so I'm on the phone/computer only. Which means I can knit during the majority of the meeting, because I'm really only involved in about 5-10 minutes of it...

Now I feel incredibly stupid.
This cracks me up. I don't know why but every time I call my Grandma and my uncle happens to be there and answers the phone--I just freeze for a minute.
Mine-I'm closing on my refi on Monday!!! woot woot--its about damn time!
I've lost 6lbs since starting Body by Vi. I'm hopeful about it.
I was thinking about doing this program. How do you like it? Do you make shakes that are blended fruits or just the powder?
I like it pretty well. The shakes really aren't bad. I use soy milk or almond milk, I don't drink any dairy and the shake powder is GF and lactose free. I add fruit to mine, I like them best with blueberries, it tastes like a blueberry muffin. A banana is really good too. I don't care for them plain, the texture is kind of weird if you don't add something to them. FYI, I bought mine off of amazon, it's a lot cheaper that way. Ebay seems to have some good deals on them too.

This week is exhausting - surprise visit by FMIL because she couldn't fly home due to Sandy, huge graduate project due next week that I can't focus on at all because FMIL talks SO MUCH... I really hope her flight tomorrow night doesn't get cancelled or bumped.
I'm in a really bitchy mood this morning. Not sure why. I went to bed before 11:30 PM, it's Halloween, I'm having a good eyelashes day and yet I could punch a duck. RAWR.
LOL @ good eyelash day.
I am super cranky today as well, but am having an average eyelash day.

How do you have a bad eyelash day?
I have super long eyelashes so sometimes they look all cray cray when I don't have time to run a wand through them. Like scraggly spider legs or something.

swiz, obviously you are very blessed. I go through phases and right now I'm in a terrible eyelash phase (though the BB makeup guy complimented me last night, he was lying I think). Sometimes they look amazing and sometimes they look like midget spiders.

I mean, yeah I have good eyelashes, but I just don't get how they would change from day to day, lol.
A variety of reasons: sleeping on my face weird, not taking off my mascara, sometimes wearing my glasses, or even sex can make them look weird (face pinned in a pillow).
My eyelashes are LONG like the furry elephant from Seaseme(?) Street. They are easily changed from day to day.

Mine do the same thing! I am also having a great eyelash day too! They look extra full and not clumped up together!
Apparently, I've been paying my electric bill to the wrong account number.
I just got notice it would be turned off within the week if I don't pay it ASAP.
That's also why last month seemed really high. I paid August, then September AND August, and now this month's bill was August, September, and October.
I hope they can figure this out.
I totally did this one time - the company changed their account numbering system. I didn't notice a new account # on the bill, just used the bill pay set up through our bank's website and paid the $ amount listed.
It was a mess for a couple months but I finally got it straightened out.
I have to miss C's halloween party at school for a conference call. I am really bitter about this. I never miss the kids parties.
I am scared the bonus cut at work is going to delay buying a new house. I am being waay to dramatic about it. To the point where I have a stomachache and I randomly started crying last night.
