I'm kind of annoyed with my coworkers. I'm an adult, so I don't make too big a deal of my birthday. I might grab dinner with a friend, but that's about it. Last year, my coworkers got "angry" with me that I didn't tell them that it was my birthday. I assumed it was "play" anger, and they took me out to lunch the next day.
This year, I mentioned my birthday last week to drop a little hint so that they wouldn't get "angry" at me again for not telling them. But they still forgot my birthday. I really wouldn't care at all, but when they figured out that they forgot my birthday they got "angry" again. But it seems like real anger, and not play anger. It's more my boss... he seemed actually peeved that I didn't tell him it was my birthday, like it's my fault that now he feels bad that he missed my birthday. And after he gave me the stink eye about not telling him about my birthday, he didn't even say "happy birthday" to me. It's just sooooooo weird. If I don't care about my birthday, why do they care so much?
And it's now the day after, and no one has mentioned anything about going to lunch. Which is fine with me, it's just weird that they would act like they care so much, but then not follow through by putting it on their calendar or taking me out to lunch. Weird.

This is going to make me sound really pitiful but oh well.
I have to get references to be a CASA volunteer. They need to be non family and have known me for two years or more. I'm trying to come up with people and I have only two. I've made more friends the past year or so but it still makes me a little sad lol.
DH took the kids to school today. He didn't stick around to record our son saying the science word of the day on the intercom. I am irrationally annoyed. He is off for 3 weeks and had no where else to be, so why not stick around for 10 extra minutes?

I woke up at 3 AM and couldn't get back to sleep. So I came downstairs and dicked around on the internet for a while, then fell half asleep on the couch. I had a dream. H bought me this car, and it was amazing (this part was probably inspired by the brand-new cherry red Camaro the guy a block away bought that makes me spring a leak every time I see it). But midway through driving it I realized it was standard and I can't drive standard. I immediately began derping it around on the road. Then suddenly H and I were in a hotel, and he had bought me this fake ride-on horse (this part was probably inspired by the fact that I'm crazy), and the kids were coming after me to pet it, and I was all FLY, FRANCINE, FLY and the horse and I went Mach 10 down the hallway, the wind (?) in my hair. I can tell that this part is one of those dreams that will be extremely vivid until I die.

This is my last day in Hawaii.....we were here for 10 days. Our flight home isn't until 10pm tonight and checkout is noon. We are going to do some last minute sightseeing and then find somewhere to watch the draft (ugh). By the time we get home with all the time changes and a small layover (headed to the east coast), it will be 4 pm Friday. UGH. Not looking forward to traveling home
I wanted to get some coffee to bring home with us, since that's one of the things Hawaii is known for and DH tried to talk me out of it. He was all, you can order it from Amazon! I want it from Hawaii damnit! I bought three bags Chocolate Macadamia Nut, yes please Also, I will probably order more from Amazon

My H is having fusion surgery on his back this afternoon. We're nervous due to the type of surgery and extended recovery time. OTOH, he is really happy that his back pain may be greatly reduced or possibly eliminated once he's healed. The fact that he's happy makes me happy.
We might actually get to go for long walks, and do some of the other things we did when we were dating/first married!
This was life changing for dh...he is 5 years out now and no issues! I hope everything went well!

Thank you! He came through surgery with no issues. Now we just need to keep his pain in check. He's looking forward to getting healed up and having a more 'normal' life.

I put in an order for art supplies that was some what over a hundred dollars.
I hope I like everything when it comes.
I am totally crossing my fingers.
I am going to try an art diorama type thing.
And a silhouette project.
This is in addition to a children's book idea that I have started to storyboard and sketch out.
Xacto knife and accessories were ordered, along with colored pencils, 80lb. drawing paper, heavyweight drawing paper in various colors and hot press watercolor paper.
I plan on getting paints and brushes for my birthday which is coming up in several weeks.
My husband is the world's lightest sleeper and prone to bad dreams/night terrors. A few minutes ago he shot up in bed screaming "Whoa whoa whoa! What the hell is that red thing!? What the hell is that red thing!?" Well H it's the clock on the dresser but now I'm on the lookout for demons and snipers, THANKS.
He laughed his ass off and was back to snoring 2 minutes later while I'm sitting here waiting for my heart rate to go back to normal.

My H sleep talks often and there have been many times where I've been startled awake only to be left with a racing heartbeat, trying to calm down enough to fall back asleep.
