My grandma passed away yesterday. Going to FL today.
I just freaked out to a GoDaddy guy on the phone. I should have known better than to work on my website before I get on a flight to go to a funeral. The good news is that my new site is up--yay!

I work in a building of roughly 400 people and it seems like 380 of them are doing their team holiday celebrations today. Potlucks, ugly sweater contests, having pizza delivered, etc. I’m all grinchy and bah-humbug because my team isn’t doing anything. My boss and I exchanged gifts (both got wine, haha!) but that’s the extent of it. It really makes me sad that the moral is so crappy around here. Makes me not want to do anything.
My niece's husband reached out to me yesterday for the first time wanting to talk. We have barely spoken since she passed, because really, what can we say to each other? We just cried a lot whenever we saw each other. It was really good to talk to him and I'm proud of how strong he's being for his son. (Who is doing amazing, btw. Saying words and eating soft foods!)
Yesterday, I jammed my toe on my closet door. I broke this toe back in June or July, and there is nothing they could do because it was my pinky toe...basically just tape it and let it heal, and I imagine that would be the same advice again, but goddamn it hurts like a mother fucker. It is swollen, so wearing shoes is the worst. And I'm kicking myself, because all night I was wearing slippers, so this would have been avoided, except I took my slippers off for like 2 minutes to change into my PJ's, and that is when it happened. Of course.
Vegas is coming over tonight, but there won't be any humping because of my monthly visitor...but it is good timing because I can tell him that he probably won't be seeing much of me anymore, at least for a couple months.
And I just want to say thanks again for everyone's words last night. It is amazing that I have never met most of you, but your words meant so much and buoyed my spirit. So thank you.
I need to go buy Christmas presents for my son's daycare providers, but I haaaaaate the mall... especially this close to Christmas. He has 5 main DCPs, but there are a few floaters, so I think I'm just going to bring in a few dozen doughnuts for the whole center in addition to the individual gifts for the 5 main ones.
I just got my bonus check so I ordered some pretty bras last night from VS. Stbxh would accuse me of cheating if I ever wore anything cute or sexy, so I had gotten so used to wearing plain, not cute stuff. I'm enjoying wearing sexy stuff again even if I have no intention of anyone seeing me in them that day.

seabitch, the grilled cheese donut is glorious. Tom and Chee makes these amazing unorthodox grilled cheese sandwiches and one of them is a glazed donut split in half and grilled with cheese. Sounds weird, I know, but so damn good.
So yesterday on Twitter I mentioned something about the two men in my life, meaning my son and my boyfriend. BF's ex texted me after not speaking to me since July to ask if that meant I had a second boyfriend. When I said no, that the relationship was still closed she was all"oh, do you wish you were seeing more people?" I said no, I was happy being monogamous, and she was all "well, I guess as long as you're happy, for now." Ugh, shut up, lady. She and I quit talking around the time that I realized that she was mining me for info about BF and only interested when she saw potential conflict. . I'm sad about the friendship I thought I didn't have and her actions yesterday just proved her intentions.
"This prick is asking for someone here to bring him to task Somebody give me some dirt on this vacuous mass so we can at last unmask him I'll pull the trigger on it, someone load the gun and cock it While we were all watching, he got Washington in his pocket."
Sounds glorious, but then I love anything with cheese, on it, around it, melted, cold, just give me all of the cheese!
Speaking of X's. I got home yesterday to a Christmas card in the mailbox to my H's Xlive in GF. Hmmmpf, I have lived there for 4 years now and while we occasionally get her mail, it is usually advertising propaganda. She has been moved out for over 6 years they were together 10+ years. My first thought was to through it in the trash. But then, my heart melted a little and I instead, thought, self, she lives about 4 blocks from where you work, be the bigger person and drop it off for her. I have no ill will against her, at times, I have even felt sorry for her. H offered to drop it off while he was working today. Part of me is glad I didn't need to do it. If she is home when he drops it off, it will make her day, week, month, year. I am strangely okay with that as long as she doesn't become a cling-on again like she did historically. Oh my head!
DJ and I are going out again tonight. He said he had to go to a cw's party for a drink but asked to meet up afterwards. When I asked him if the party was for "L" (a DJ on the morning show) he said yes and asked if I knew her. I said no, but I heard her talking about how it's her 40th today so I assumed. He has now asked me to join him for a drink and meet her.
I keep having random spurs of nausea, and have puked twice this week with no warning. I'm not PG, but I'm really hoping I don't puke in the middle of a work meeting.
I humped this past weekend which makes twice in 2014. One of my New Years resolutions is to have lots of sex in 2015 because I'm 34 and feel like I'm wasting my sexual prime
I just got home from a crazy day at work. I need to get ready to go pick up my friend...we're going to see the Long Island medium!! Super excited. I saw her with my same girlfriend in a very small group about 8 years ago. Last time my dad came through. J thinks I'm a little nutty because he's a skeptic. It's cool...I'm skeptical of some people, but she's got a gift!
I had my work holiday event this morning. Thankfully I didn't have to talk to any of my shitty coworkers. We volunteered at a charity that hires developmentally disabled adults and we helped them pack small boxes of baby stuff for Citrus Lane. It was neat. And then we had free lunch.
Now I want a nap.
I've had humpage 2 out of 2 nights this week. Maybe we can make it 3 for 3!
Poor BF. He tried to be nice and send his condolences to his exFI after he learned that her grampa has cancer. What does he get for it? An earful about how he should have more respect. WHUT.

I have watched her show and sometimes get teary-eyed. I can't wait to hear how it goes!

DS had speech therapy tonight. As usual it was me, XH, and XH's FI there. I'm glad I've been able to work through and move on from all that happened. We are able to talk and I don't feel anxious or those hard feelings I used to have towards them, just a good convo. It just makes me glad that the next 15+ years will be easier for me than the last 3.

I just got home after a very long day. I took the day off to get stuff done and head home to my parents house. Just got back. Time to do laundry, clean, and get stuff done for Montreal on Friday! I'm so excited!
Also, I stole cheese and milk from my mom so yay! That shit is expensive here. Also, I was lazy to go to the store. Yay for moms!
As far as hump day is concerned, I had a saucy ONS with a man that looked like he belonged on the cover of a romance novel. Flowing hair, defined chest and abs, oh just drool. I thoroughly enjoyed it and we exchanged numbers for possible future encounters.
