Tuesday Randoms - post them here

[Deleted]

1. H's cousin and fiance announced that they're building a barndominium (sp? its a house with horse stalls on the first floor) and 20 acres of land. And by building, they mean his mom is paying for IT ALL. They're 21 and can't afford cable (literally, not snark), so this should go well. The fiance keeps on texting me decor options.

2. My new rugs come in this wk and I'm super stoked.

3. My baby bro has been sending me chain emails all week about how evil the oil industry is. My pops has only ever worked in oil & gas, and thus it's the only field that has provided my brother with anything ever (he's 18 and still on the payroll). Dad and I think this is awesomely hilarious.

[spitforspat]

1. We gave to go to H's grandpa's funeral today and I'm appalled at what a baby I'm being about it.

2. I want a Vespa, but H and my dad are convinced I will die. I must be a bad driver. Vroom, vroom!

3. I have a friend who is recently engaged. She's pinning all these wedding pics on pinterest and they are IDENTICAL to my wedding. I'm tickled and flattered- but it's so strange! Same colors, same flowers, same ties on the men...

did i miss your announcement that you are pregnant?

OMG! Congratulations!

[mrsjuleshs]

My kid threw her full last night in tumbling class. If you don't know what that is, it is a tumbling pass where they fo a full twist up in the air. I foresee the next 5 years being VERY expensive. She better get a scholarship for this crap.

[pseudoagain]

DS has to get a cavity filled this afternoon. I am dreading it.

I really should be doing something productive but I can't be arsed.

[Vally]

I hate that I like the show Shark Tank.

1. As I was getting out of the car yesterday at DD's daycare, a car full of stupid high school guys drove by and made the pig calling sound at me. (Suuuuweeeee!).
I had all I could not to jump back into my car, chase them down and kill every single one of them.
I'm sick to death of people trying to make me feel terrible about how I look.

2. I'll be 19 weeks tomorrow. I'm officially at the halfway mark of my pregnancy. Yay!!

Ugh, what a bunch of queef demons, I'm sorry!

What fucking assholes! I can't believe how rude people are.

[peachykate]

dern- Does your H want you to meet him? I see absolutely no reason to meet with him. I have only met my FIL a handful of times before we cut of communication and the first thing he said to me was that everything DH told me was all lies and that he never abused his son at all. Disgusted was not a strong enough word for how I felt.

smace- I must have missed this, CONGRATULATIONS!

puddle- what a bunch of dicks, I am sure you look beautiful!

I finally found a travel agent but she is being super pushy and I am being super indecisive about where we should go.

Oh puddle. I just teared up reading this---I cannot imagine how devastated I would be if something like that happened to me. I am so sorry you had to go through that. I am certain that you are a beautiful mom-to-be. hugs.

[sugarplum]

1. It is hailing here and my entire back yard looks like snow.
2. If H comes up with one more reason to postpone TTC I'm going to scream. He keeps stringing me along and at some point my ovaries are going to shrivel up and THEN he'll want to have kids.

SMACE, are you telling us something. If so, CONGRATULATIONS!

[falada45]

DH and I realized this morning that we are officially old because we were all geeked out and excited as our crappy picket fence was being ripped out to have our new privacy fence installed. LMAO. At least our little terrier will be able to *fingers crossed* run around loose in the yard now. The little shit could squeeze through the old one so she always had to be on a tie-out.

I'm sure you look AMAZING. I would have done chased them down too!

[jerseygrl]

OMG puddle what a bunch of douche twats! I hope each one of them wakes up prom morning with a gigantic zit on the tip of their nose

1. We got a new car last night. I love it!!

2. Son took his first step this morning!

3. I hate rain. I was supposed to have a lunch meeting with someone today. They cancelled and I have no lunch. I need to go out in the rain. UGH

4. I side eyed a girl at the gym yesterday who was standing in the locker room texting for about 5 minutes, completely naked. I'm no prude but damn, at least wrap a towel around you if you are deep in text conversation

[littleboyblue]

I saw this license plate on my way back from dropping off DS. It's still making me giggle. I cant fathom someone intentionally putting that on their license plate, but I can't come up with any alternative meanings either.

**since it's harder to see than I realized, the license is CLN VAG**

[lightbulbsun]

I just signed up for the Army 10 miler in DC this fall. eek! And I'm considering signing up for the Trenton 1/2 marathon, because it is only a few weeks after the 10 miler. But it's the first year they're running it, so I'm sure it will be an organizational mess, and I also have to take a professional exam the week before, so I'm not sure how studying for that would work with my training.

[nahoku]

Smace - congratulations! I must have missed an announcement, too.

Falada - your profile pic is adorable and I would love to have a privacy fence.

Puddle - I am positive that you are a beautiful pg lady and YAY for being halfway done!

For me - as of last week, I've lost 30 pounds this year! And this morning I squeezed into a pair of size 10 jeans that probably haven't been worn in about 6 years (I have a problem with getting rid of clothes apparently, lol). They're a leeetle tight, but my other pants are too big. Also - I'm proud of what I've accomplished so far, but my bare belly would still make small children cry, so tonight I start Jillian Michaels' 6 Week Abs.

I was disappointed that I didn't get a gift for Mother's Day so I bought some new shoes yesterday for myself and am going to shop around some more today b/c my boss is in a meeting all day.

I have to take my shih tzu in for an xray today to see if she has kidney stones. She has some sort of infection (they think uti) so I brought her in yesterday - I don't think DH saw the invoice for yesterday's appt b/c I didn't hear him crying at all. Poor little pup! I hope her antibiotics take care of her - I want her to feel better and I am tired of cleaning up pee!

[cbwm1]

SMACE! Congrats, dude! That's super awesome. :-D

[poppyseed]

SMACE - congrats!! When did you announce? I missed it.

Puddle - OMG. You are a better person than I because I would have hunted them down and throat punched them until they passed out. What is WRONG with people?? Don't even worry about it, you look fine.


I am very proud of how much I'm getting done around the house since H is gone this week. It feels like a whole new place.

We found black widow spiders in our garage over the weekend We got rid of them once before and now they're back and I'm paranoid.

Tiny penises and acne.

:Y:

Puddle- they are fucking douches. You are beautiful.

[litebright]

I'm so sick of germs. DD1 is getting over the pink-eye that went around her preschool class. It seems like just yesterday I stopped blowing snot from a cold that seemed to last forever, and now DD2 is sick again and my throat is sore.

It took more than an hour to get my kids to bed last night. DH is out of town and I'm so frustrated with them by the end of the day, and this bedtime battle is just the last straw. They share a bedroom, and DD1 can play too rough, so I can't just not intervene because she makes DD2 cry. I have no idea how to solve this and get them to settle down faster and actually stay in bed without dissolving into yelling and mad-mommy.

I had a red iPhone slider case that wouldn't stay together so H super glued it. It has been on my phone for over a year and I was sick of it. I made him take it off last night which was horrifying to watch him take pliers and break pieces of the case off. But, he managed to get it off and didn't break the glass or scratch it. I am scared that in the next 9 hours until I get a new case I will drop it and crack the screen.

[stupidcrafts]

Congrats, SMACE! That is so exciting!

My randoms:

1. My BFF got a job offer to come and work at our firm! I am over the moon for her.

2. Last year, I *thought* they discontinued my favourite cereal. Yesterday, I popped into W-Mart for a few items. I randomly walked down the cereal aisle, and there on the shelf were many boxes of THE cereal. The heavens opened up, a golden light poured down from above, angels sung. I'm still kind of buzzing with excitement.

[shamalamadingdo]

my son got his finger caught in a swing at school a couple weeks ago. i didnt take him to the doc, because, 1) i am a terrible mom and 2) i thought, eh, its a finger. even if its broken they'll just tape it to the next finger.

he continued to play video games, go to gymnastics, jump on the trampoline, etc for the next 10 days.

his finger wasnt getting any better so i finally took him in...and he broke the damn thing on the growth plate, he is casted from the bottom of his arm to the tips of all of his fingers, he has to get re-casted in two weeks, follow ups with the orthopedic surgeon to make sure his growth plate fixes itself. OMG.

when they told me, i cried so bad. i SUCK...i let my poor kid walk around like that for nearly two weeks. and now im terrified he's going to have a tiny little finger bc its not going to heal correctly since i didnt get any medical attention.

[DirtyMartini]

I am taking a half day because I want to. I am not telling the babysitter. I am going to leave here at 11 and go home and eat nachos and watch TV (or maybe sit outside and read) until I have to go pick up the kiddos.

[spitforspat]

Smace- congrats!

Puddle- your story filled me with the rage. Can you identify them? How far away are you from tx?

Another random: I have a secret dream of throwing a Hook themed dinner party. All the food would be brightly colored (food coloring in mashed potatoes and deviled eggs, etc). We could yell 'ru fi ooooooo!' then go outside where big tarps are set up and we have ponchos and fooooood fiiiiight!

No one is ever excited about Bangarang Dinner.
