We're being "encouraged" to attend a $35 team building canoe trip next month and I have got to find some excuse to skip it. I do not like my co-workers and paying to spend 4 hours trapped on the river with them sounds like some kind of torture.
Sometimes I think I love my dog more than my son. Granted, my son is grown and lives across the country and is quite independent, while my dog is like a needy toddler. Im quite sure my dog loves me more than my son does too. And our pets are with us for such a short time. Ugh, I get teary just thinking about it.

Dentist appointment? At my last job I used to schedule routine exams (MRI, u/s) for the day of the company Christmas party. I hated that job.

This is definitely an option. I would actually choose to go to the dentist for real rather than do this, so it's almost true
TrickyBob (and others) Thanking by sex isn't a tit for tat thing. I could substitute making a meal or an equally nice gesture but I just bought new breasts a couple weeks ago so I am all about the sex right now.
Well now I'm convinced you're just messing with us.
Having only had dysfunctional relationships modeled to me growing up, and having only been in seriously dysfunctional relationships myself, I worry that I don't even know whats "normal" to think and feel in the context of a "normal relationship" now that I'm getting married.
I was raised in a shitshow, and I'm the most happily married person I know. Whatever your model was, do the opposite. That's worked for me for 11 years!

DD will have a MUCH nicer car than DH or myself. When she quit competitive cheer I told her I would put that money a month away towards a car for her. She turns 16 in a few months so we are buying her car early so she can get the hang of it before her driving test. I'm not looking forward to the car payment though it is cheaper than the money I am putting aside now and since she has a job making good money as a gymnastics coach she is 100% responsible for her own car insurance/gas/maintenance. She was in tears when I told her I put the deposit down today and we go get it Saturday. Both of our vehicles are WAY too large to pass down to her.

I know we've moved on, but I have a feeling Odonata's coworkers said she can't handle working with 2u2 because Odonata can't handle life in general. Maybe it's a sexist thing, but maybe it's more of a JFC, we can't handle your drama any more thing.

Wait, what? You bought new breasts, but you can't afford gas?
I can afford gas but was cash poor for a couple days before payday. The $60 wasn't a make or break amount just running around money.
Though I'm sure it doesn't matter at this point as I'm assuming the spreadsheet has already been updated.
If you don't know what happened on Grey's last week by now, you have not been on the internet or watched any tv all week. It was on Good Morning America the next freaking morning - and they had another story yesterday or today.

Or maybe she's really good about where she goes on the internet and doesn't watch GMA...

Exactly! The only thing good about it was that once I was an adult I was all "yeah.... don't do that."
I'm still pissed at TOTS (And will never forgive her) for spoiling the Survivor finale. I'm on the west coast so I thought it was OBVIOUS that east coasters knew to Shut the fuck up until it aired for the PST people. I got a lot of shit for being mad in that post. Yup, still pissed.

I won't flame you for being mad about a spoiler, but I may flame you for watching survivor.

It's ok I still love you. But Greys? That's also at "PEOPLESTILLWATCHTHAT?" level.
I went to my gym today and talked to one of my coaches. She really talked me down. She and I are pretty similar and she didn't love the baby stage either.
MIL just took the baby and dog for a walk and I'm going to go sleep. Hooray!
I just want to hug you, f'real. I can't promise you won't have wistful moments of spontaneous outings, but it gets so. much. better. You can do this! And sleep helps SO much.
::sniff sniff:: thanks, girl!
I just slept for 3 uninterrupted hours. Holy shit. I think I feel sort of human again.
