I just pulled a dryer sheet out of the sleeve of my sweatshirt.
It's raining like crazy here and still really dark out. I just want to be back in bed instead of at work. *Yawn*
In addition to the gallon size bags that are 3/4 full of candy, the girls now have 2 plastic pumpkins (each!) full of candy. H & I are going to have a field day "inspecting" the candy tonight!
Its a lot warmer than I anticipated it being today, so I overdressed, so I am super hot AND feeling bloaty from eating candy last night. Blech.
Yay Friday! I am really excited about the weekend. Tomorrow we pick up our first winter CSA share at the farm and we have to bring shears for some u-pick veggies. Fun!
This car is bad luck. A fuel oil truck backed into it while I was parked and drinking my coffee today. He tried to blame me. Because I was parked with my lights off. Awesome.
The company has a garage and they want to see if they can fix it for me first. If not, then we go through the insurance.
I was dissappointed in my neighbors last night - hardly anyone had their porch lights on! As a result, we had less than 20 kids come by. It was also hard to take my 2yr old niece trick or treating when we had to walk so far between houses. She lost interest pretty quickly. She did think we were going to "visit" everyone though, and kept trying to open everyone's doors and walk on in.
I am the ONLY one in my dept today, with minimal work to do. It's highly likely I'm going to scoot out early today.
McDs messed up my iced coffee - no vanilla syrup and not nearly enough ice. This makes me irrationally sad.
I spent way too much time this morning fetching my garbage cans from across the street and moving branches blocking my driveway. The wind can go ahead and knock it off right about now. My back screen door is currently hanging on by one hinge right now because the wind took it over when I tried to leave. Ugh.
I forgot I have a short brief with my two-levels up boss this morning and wore jeans today. Oh well.
I need to get on setting a regular telework today. I get so much more done working from home without distracting coworkers. (ETA: for example, someone is currently blasting the theme song from Skyfall. Unless Daniel Craig is in the office, I don't want to hear it)
We had such a good Halloween last night- kids were cooperative and cute, we did just enough ToTing to be fun and not have it drag out, were home in time to hand out candy for a little while too, and both kids were in bed by 8.

Um, no.
You need to get your insurance involved, especially since you are not at fault.
Why would you trust them on this?
Because my father in law is the on the board for their union. He wouldn't let them fuck me.
I am only working half day today. Then to the mall, haircut and drop the kids off with the ILs. Out tonight with my parents and tailgating and going to the Iowa vs Wisconsin game tomorrow. Go Hawks!
I killed it at my workout this morning. I am eating leftover pizza hut pizza from my work party yesterday.
The only damper on today is it is Nov. 1st which means the thankful crap has started up on facebook again. NOOOOOO

I had to give a quiz yesterday- REALLY had to, to avoid having two quizzes in the same month. I told them it was up to them, this is what they chose.
Afterward, though, (30 minute quiz but the class is an hour and 35), I brought in a bunch of contruction paper, crayons, markers, yarn, ya know, Lucy's ARTSHIT bag, and they dressed on member of their group up like a work of art.
It was AWESOME. They had fun, and a co-worker stopped by to check it out. I loved it! I'm totally doing fake halloween in my Spring class. Yessss.
...they told me I'm the coolest and nicest professor ever.
G is starting gymnastics tomorrow, mainly because she wants to jump on the trampolines during ds's lessons and I'm tired of wrangling her for the hour. Smart gymnastics gym is smart, and offers 2-3yr and prek classes at the same time. I am reeeeaaally looking forward to watching them do cute little kid gymnastics and relaxing.
I distinctly remember my older sister being peeved that I got to start doing things pretty much directly after she did. Now I realize it's because my parents tasted freedom and never looked back. Sorry Payne!
LOL luckyval! That's a story for the grandkids for sure.
I brought all the leftover candy into work today and put it in the kitchen. It's already gone. I'm just thrilled to be rid of it and I didn't have to eat it.
We get to wear Red Sox shirts to work today, but no casual pants allowed. I'm wearing dress pants, heels, and a jersey. I look so silly
H convinced me that we would have a lot of trick or treaters in our development (first year there), so I bought a ton of candy. We got about 30 kids. So much leftover chocolate. This is both a good and bad problem to have.
I am starting to get a few pimples, probably from my hormones coming back down. I have on on my nose, and it hurts to touch it, lol.
My H is sick and I am stressing that M will get it. I am suppose to go to a Christmas dinner for my work tonight (early I know) but I don't know if I want to leave her with hi. Although, chances are she has already been exposed to the germ.
Thanks to hisno1girl I just made my cleaning lady touch my baby. I tried to be all sly about it but I am pretty sure she knew I knew what was up. I don't know who was more confused her wondering why I was superstitious or me not really totally getting it but knowing I didn't want any bad juju near my baby. Lol

There must be a story behind this... Where can I find it? lol
DD and I are watching old school Scooby Doo and there is a laugh track. I don't remember that. It's weird.
I'm going to try the new Jillian Michaels class at the gym today.
I'm going to attempt to trim my bangs myself today or tomorrow. This never turns out well and I never learn. But I don't want to pay $5 and go to the salon! Ugh, maybe I should just do that.
Ragstock came through for me and I finally found overalls to wear to the party tomorrow.

my manager told me last week i can't work from home twice a week like we talked about several weeks ago.. i'm a little bitter about it since most of my job can be done from home.
