I want a muffin so badly but the craving will pass if I ignore it and drink water.
This weather needs to make up its damn mind, do i pack away my boots and sweaters or keep that shit out??
Mine are not going anywhere. Hate it.
smock, I admit last year's Derby plans sound better than this year's. I think you know your racing name: Falaflin in Memphis! Or Better than Bacon. You can choose.
Watching the news this morning, I can't help but wonder when May Day turned into a violent holiday? When I was a kid we used to leave flowers on a neighbor's doorstep, now the news is all about how the cities are preparing for rioters... this makes me sad. I think DS and I are going to leave flowers on my or neighbor's doorstep anyway. I'd rather reach him to celebrate people than fear them.
Is it birthday weekend?
It is! Although the news said that it might rain on Saturday, which is a little frustrating. I'm going to have to keep an eye on that and see if it's going to be bad enough to delay our outing. His birthday isn't until Tuesday, so I guess we can put it off a little while if we need to, but I don't want to. When I checked this morning, there was only a 20% chance of showers. If it stays in that range, we're going.
partiallysunny, it started out being a day to march for immigration reform and such in Seattle, then a couple of years ago a group of anarchists swooped in and the whole event turned very violent. It's become an annual event since then. Police are actually suggesting that people stay away from Seattle for the next few days to avoid getting caught up in the mayhem. There is a smaller local group that staged a pretty violent march last year closer to home too. They marched down the street, blocking traffic, smashing local business' windows, damaging cars, fights broke out, it was a mess. It makes me sad that they have chosen violence as a voice for their cause. Honestly most people don't really even know why they're rioting anymore, myself included. We just know that it's not a safe place to be on May Day.

DS and H are bday twins! I still have no plan for his birthday. Bad wife.

That's just sad starrieskies You think if they want to remember the past violent riot (so as not to repeat the past? ) they'd make sure the remembrances were peaceful?

It is sad. I don't understand it. I think at this point, it's just an excuse to gather in a large group and create destruction and that is a concept I simply cannot understand.
DS and I have decided that we are going to the store to pick out flowers after I pick him up and we're going to drop them on several of our neighbors' doorsteps to brighten their day. DS, however, has expensive taste. I suggested daffodils or tulips and he said he wants roses.

I love Rob Thomas. Would bang.
It's my birthday! <) No work, just Netflix and coffee until DH gets home. Whenever that is. I'm kind of hoping he takes a nap after work so I can take myself shopping, then we can go someplace awesome for dinner. I should probably decide what I want.

You should go to the concert tonight with doglove to celebrate.
Did I tell you ladies about the guy who flipped out after one date when I told him via text that I was going to pursue dating someone else?
Well, he popped up on my OKCupid with a message, so I blocked him. He just texted me this morning asking if I got his messages and how I'm doing. I had to ask who it was, I deleted his number. I don't want to respond, but don't know if that's the best way to handle it.

If you feel like you should respond, tell him you are fine, thank him for his concern and ask him to not contact you again.
Part of me wants to ask him why the fuck he thinks it's a good idea to contact me ever again after his histrionics in response to me politely telling him "no thanks" after one date. But I don't want to engage and get more texts of drama-llama histrionics.

Since I'm going to the beach in 16 days. I'm trying to clean up my act a bit and loose the last struggling 5lbs. I've given up wine and bread. It's working but this is not something I would want to give up forever.

Eeew! I would ignore. No sense in engaging in that mess.
