1. My students are driving me crazy. I just had a middle schooler try to back talk me. That didn't work out for him.
2. Found out via FB last night that my MIL took both dh's brothers girlfriends to lunch and drinks. (One has been around 6 months and the other 3 months) But I wasn't even invited. Cool. I've been around for 7 years and have given you your only grandchild but nice to know I still fall where I always have - last.
3. Starbucks messed up my drink. And didn't toast my bagel. And gave me a fork to spread the cream cheese instead of a knife.
Stupid student, MIL, and Starbucks!!! Chris worked overnight Sunday and last night and then again tonight. I'm selfish and can only think about me. It means I have all the kid bedtime, middle of the night, and morning shit PLUS I have to keep them quiet so he can sleep. What about meeeee? When do I get to sleep? I'm pampered and never have breakfast duty. We are broke again. Everyone in Chris's field wants you to have 3-5 years prior experince. He went to school for nothing. We are probably gonna live with my mom forever and be big fucking losers. And now we can't afford for me to go to therapy. And my dog is dead.
Oh, Gisa! What field is he in? Can he find an internship to get his foot in the door somewhere?

That sucks, sorry to hear that. Find an internship to help him get some experience! Most people start in internships, it's a great way to meet people that have connections to jobs.

Heat, air, and refrigeration. It seems like you need to "know someone" to get a foot in. I think he may need to go complete the second year to be certified as technician and not just appretice, but that no guarantee that he will get a job.
I'm sorry:-( I wish you lived here in NC. That is what my husband does for a living and is very good friends with the owner. If you ever want to move here let me know!:-)
Somehow our water bill is $530. WTAF. All the city says is "you must have a leak you can't hear somewhere". If you average out all the water they're saying we used since our last actual meter reading, they're claiming we used 1350 L/day. That's over 350 gallons of water PER DAY. And I was home all of that time. I think I'd hear/see that much water.

Ok this blows. I'm sorry! When IS your time off?! I hope he has some time off soon so that YOU can.
And you will NOT live with your mom forever! Are job prospects better elsewhere or is it all pretty much the same?

Hugs to everyone going through some crap right now!
Tyler was up at 5 am today. Seeing he wouldn't eat dinner last night or breakfast today, I think he is teething. Teeth suck.
I lose my awesome amazing insurance at the end of this month and switch to an HSA. I can't afford my birth control on it and I have to switch to something cheaper. Cheap birth control makes me vomit.
raynes I know right?! $6 for that?! Not to mention the put whipped cream on my iced coffee even though I said no whip. I told them about that one and they scraped it off. Pieces of whipped cream were still floating on top.
And that blows hardcore about the water bill - WTAF?! I would have a panic attack over that.

Where in NC?
Raleigh. He also has connections in Tampa,Fl and Northern Va. He has been heating and air for 14 years.
raynes wow! I think I would have a heart attack of my water bill came in that much I hope you can get it figured out.
kdrake8 I shipped your stuff too! Some lady selling fake crap was trying to nickel and dime me for a brand new Coach wallet I was selling. I ended up selling to her because I need the money (ie buy something else) but she rubbed me the wrong way. Did you end up ordering anything from the MK website? And you should call Starbucks and complain, they will replace your drink for free

I have some cousins in Raleigh. Sadly, that is too far from our families. I think he wants to be closer tonhis parents. I may take you up on the offer in a few months though!
I understand wanting to be close to family. We moved here from Tampa to be close to my family. Just let me know!
raynes WTH? That's ridiculous! I would have a heart attack if I saw that bill! What are you going to do??
Thanks for the well wishes everyone. Hopefully, the day will get better for us all. It helps to have people to bitch it out with. : )
I've called the city and they were all "well, you probably have a small leak somewhere that you can't hear". I'm sorry, but 1000L/day is NOT a small leak.
Unfortunately the meter reading matches what's on the bill, so I have a feeling we'll get stuck with the bill AND probably have to pay a plumber. Waaaaaaaa. At least I'm back at work and actually getting paid?
I'm hungry. There's nothing good to eat here, but I don't feel like getting dressed and leaving the house, even though I'm going to have to do that at some point today.
I'm pretty sure DH really doesn't believe me when I tell him Lily is on the boob all day. But she often is, unless we leave the house. And that's another reason shit just doesn't get done here.

I have the stomach flu and I'm having a horrible time controlling my blood sugars because of it.
We have decided to be one and done with J and I am so sad about it. I had a very rough pregnancy due to my diabetes and hyperemesis gravidarum. I feel we got very lucky because J came out perfect and my health got better after I had him so I really don't want to risk it.

Can your doctor give you samples? That is what mine did when i was in college because cheap BC makes me bleed bi-weekly. I ain't got time for that! raynes WTAF?? That is a crazy amount of water
I am on Nuvaring, and it is hard to get samples. I decided to give pills a try again recently. Orthtricycline was worse than first trimester,.
DH is working a second job and it sucks. It's only a few days a week but he goes right after work and hasn't been home before 10. Sunday he worked from 8:30-7:30. And the last 2 nights his brother has been here helping him make our fence gate bigger. Lots of noise, lots of sand in the house, and no help with my baby who thinks she should be up. I actually started crying last night when she wouldn't go to sleep. Haven't done that since I got PPD last year.
I just bumped my head pretty hard on the corner of the bathroom wall. It really hurt.
Llama if you were closer I'd bring you some k-cups, I just bought some! I didn't wash my hair last night either so we could have dirty hair together. I'm sorry to hear about your aunt.
I'm so sorry that everyone is having such a shitty day.
Last night I had a horrific migraine. I had to carry my on call bag (which is really heavy) a long distance to my car and then went somewhere and someone was wearing too much perfume. It got so bad I was dry heaving driving home and I was freaking on call. Thankfully I got no calls but even Gravol (equivalent to your Dramamine) and 2 Tylenol #3's didn't even tough it. Eventually I just passed out and now I'm exhausted today.
Crap, that sucks! Get a plumber out as soon as possible to find whatever may be going on so it doesn't happen next month! Also, are you able to see your meter where you can make a log everyday of how much you're using? (Is it like the electricity meter? )
Oh and we finally got our 1 year pics of Lillian back. I used a Groupon for a photographer and he wouldn't respond to any of my inquiries. I called groupon and he emailed me a link to the pics. There are no good ones. He sucked big time. At one point he said to Lillian "hello, is anybody home?!" when the 1 year old wouldn't look at him for pictures. I'm really pissed at myself for choosing to use a Groupon for something like this
katie sorry about the working husband and the sand! Sand in the house really pisses me off! Thanks for the thought of K-Cups! I did open a new bag of coffee and a new creamer, it is divine! Maybe it will motivate me to wash this hair ! Is it overcast your way too? I think that is just making me feel blah
rxbeth Migraines are the worst, I can't imagine having to work on call with one. Hope you can get some rest today!

That just sucks! I agree about the reviews, let people know how awful he is!

I just got off the phone with the utility company and she's all "there's nothing we can do, the reading is correct, we tried calling". Maybe leave a fucking message?
Since the reading on May 9th our water usage is totally normal. They haven't taken an actual reading since November, so there's no way to tell when this supposed "leak" was happening. FUCK.
