Counting down the seconds until we can go to the Cape. I've been stuck inside an over-air conditioned office allllll week long and I need to be on the beach, like, yesterday. Besides my morning commute into the office, I've only been out in the sun once all week, and that was a 60 second walk to a restaurant for lunch on Tuesday.
I read Eat to Live and decided that I'm going to start it in the month of August. I was a vegetarian for most of my life before marrying my husband, so six weeks of going vegan shouldn't be a stretch. Then my boss brought in the world's most amazing donut. Now, I think I've just decided to be suger laden and bloated for life.

I was at the gym this morning on an elliptical.. there were 6-8 other open elliptical machines. This old stinky man gets to the one right next to me. WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME STINKY MAN??? haha.
I am so tired today. Beyond tired. I cried and drank all afternoon/evening yesterday and I should have stayed home today and just slept. I'm thinking of sneaking over to the empty cubicle next to mine and taking a nap.
Oh.. this is annoying. From the website of the restaurant we're going to tonight.

I had an amazing sex dream about a guy I haven't seen or really thought of since college and I've been a little floaty and dreamy all day since waking up. I barely knew the guy then, we flirted in class/studio a bit but I did just stalk him on FB a little (after about 20 minutes of trying to remember his name!). I blame the sexfessions thread.
I just realized I haven't deposited this month's check from our renters....that they sent on the 30th. Off to the bank!

Just got back from my mechanic. My car is officially shot. It'll cost more to repair than the actual cost of my car. His only advice was to "drive it into the ground" and make $300 selling it to a junkyard. Right before I start my new job. *thumbs up* awesome....NOT.
I can't drive unless it's absolutely, positively necessary. There goes my plans for tonight. But, at least we're going to ask an elderly client of H's if she is thinking of selling her "barely driven" car, since she can no longer drive. I hope she says yes, I can't imagine what I'm going to do when it comes to getting to work and home.

There is a storm coming in and I just turned the air off and opened windows. It feels fantastic after the hottest week evah. I'm about to pour myself a beer. Happy Friday!
I uninstalled and reinstalled the proboards app and now I can't find GBCN. Help?
Iced coffee is super yummy and I drink 1/2 caf so that I can have multiple cups a day. Bonus is that I get more protein & calories because of all the milk I add to it.
We leave for the lake in 2.5 hours and I have neither showered or packed.
I once remarked to my H a long time ago that I thought buying flowers was stupid because they die so quickly. I told him he should buy me a cactus instead because even I probably couldn't kill that. We have been having a very rough time lately and yesterday when I went to work there was a penis shaped cactus waiting for me. He also sent regular flowers and a candy bouquet for the kids. His card said that he loved me and he was sorry for being an ass and that he remembered me saying cactus were forever. Plus when he saw the penis shaped cactus he immediately knew I would love it. lol I have missed the fun in our marriage.

I found out that because MH is faculty at a state school, I can get an undergrad degree at a 50% discount at any state school! So I (obviously) am taking advantage of it and I think I'm going to go for Business Management. I spoke with my old General Manager from the shop I left to take my new job & he was so supportive and gave me some great advice and words of encouragement. I'm pretty excited :-) My diploma from car college (lol) has been what I needed so far but I know I need a degree to get to the level I want to be.

Oh shit! I have a totally flameful thing that I'm willing to share.
The ice cream truck came down our cul de sac for the first time yesterday. DH got DD hyped up about it and they went outside. Well, I guess our cul de sac is just a place the driver zones out in because he didn't even see them standing by his truck. He later apologized to DH and told him he would be sure to look out for us in the future.
Flameful part: When the truck drove away she was heartbroken. Her face fell. Before she could get too upset I just said "it's ok dada will drive with you and take you to the truck." Excited again. DH puts her in the front seat!! and drives a block away to get the ice cream. No seat belt. He said he got a dirty look from the woman's house he parked in front of. AND OF COURSE he did it in my car, not his truck. So I will be judged every time I drive anywhere.
Extra flameful: I'm mildly embarrassed, but mostly glad she got her ice cream and has her first memory of the ice cream truck.
I have a co-worker who has her ring tone set to The Exorcist theme song. Every once in a while when her phone rings, she shouts out "MERRIN!" in a demonic voice.
DD embarrassed the shit out of me yesterday. We had to run an errand after I picked her up from camp. We got to the store and both needed to go to the bathroom, so off we went. Well I have the period from hell and have to wear a pad with my tampon b/c it's just that bad. Well the tampon leaked onto the pad. I thought that could be the case, and with her in the stall with me I tried to be very discrete and hide it. I thought she was turned around but she whipped around before I was able to completely hide it and she said, in a crowded bathroom "mommy, your underwear is dirty" I said nope, it's just the color they are and she said "no no mommy, they are brown" OMG I wanted to die. So now all these people think I shit myself.
Omg I would've died!! Sorry that happened.
Last Sunday I was shopping with my three yo girls and teen son and we each had one of the girls in our shopping cart. Well all of a sudden my girl says mommy that man farted and I was like OMG when I realized it was a woman and my daughter has a super loud voice. A little while later she saw the same person and said mom there's the man that farted! I was so freaking embarrassed. I feel your pain
I can't get him to sit still long enough to get one while awake, but here's some from his naps yesterday.
Omg!! Adorable! What kind of dog? i drank way too much las night and I am absolutely useless today. I'm getting too old for staying out till 2! I'm waiting one dh to get home so we can finalize plans for vacation. He doesn't have to be here, I just need his work schedule and need to know if they are planning on sending him out oot.
