Wine about it Wednesday

[kaneen]

Let's get some movement around here!

I want two things from everyone today.  #1 - Whine about something and #2 - What kind of wine will you be drinking tonight?

My whine:

I had every intention of going into the office today.  I got up and made coffee and sat down "just for a minute" to go through emails.  It's now 9:40am and I just realized how late it's gotten.  There's really no point in me showering and going in now so it's another WFH day.  I know I shouldn't whine about that but I was looking forward to actually interacting with real people today.

Wine for tonight:

I bought a bottle of Whispering Angel Rose the other day that is currently chilling in my fridge and will be popped open as soon as I finish working.

Theme O' the Day, kaneen. I was coming on here to do a Whines and Wins thread, but I'll take Whine and Wine!

My whine is that I was trying to post a wedding album last night and it kept tagging P's friend in the headline, for some unknown reason. I deleted it several times and didn't even mention her name but it tagged her instead of P. So none of his friends could see it. I got so irritated trying to figure it out that I couldn't sleep and I was up till almost midnight reading, which is WAAAAY too late for me.

As for wine, none for me today. We are going back out to the kitchen design place to try and pick out cabinet colors so I won't be home for a while. Plus, I've gained a few pounds so I'm trying to take it off.

#1 My whine: I have viral pharyngitis. I'm glad it's not strep, but it still isn't fun. Luckily it feels like I'm improving already, thankfully. But still, sick is not how I wanted to spend my last week before going back to work! It means missing water fitness yesterday and today.

#2 Wine: I'm not sure I'll have any tonight. I did have a nice Cotes-du-Rhône on the plane home.

Whine- My sister is an asshole

Wine- none

[doriswe]

Whine - I don't even have the words. My kid is a dick, my friend just got diagnosed with breast cancer, work is emotionally draining.

Wine - I'm abstaining currently because the last few times I've drank, I've had terrible headaches in the morning.

Whine - M left today for a full week. He was originally just taking a 4 day weekend to go to a gamers convention/tournament in Vancouver with his BFF, but he decided flights were cheaper a couple days out on each end, and now it's a full week, with him working remotely from his bff's apartment before returning home. I'm a bit miffed about that part - his pup can be a PITA. I'm planning to send him to doggie daycare for at least a couple days so Max and I can sleep in over the weekend, LOL.

Also, yesterday was leg day and this is me today:


Wine - none for me tonight. My body seems to think I ate nothing but fried foods this past weekend, and I could use a few days to take off that water weight.

[tiramisu]

((((doriswe)))) I'm sorry, that's a lot at once.


chalupa, good call at sending Loki off to daycare part of the time.

[bullygirl979]

Hugs, mags and doriswe.

And yeah, DEFINITELY a good call on the daycare, chalupa!

[bullygirl979]

Ohhh I do have an anti-whine! My girls trip to London has officially been booked. YAHOO!!

[doriswe]

I feel like I need to add some anti-whine also, because I'm totally swallowed up with negativity lol. I'm getting a massage over lunch today and last night DS and I took a long walk together and he was super excited to show me random trails he's discovered over the summer.

[tiramisu]

mags is it *that* sister? I'm sorry.


My anti-whine is that I got bloodwork done this morning and then was a responsible adult and went grocery shopping. I didn't get everything I probably need, but enough for now (milk, yogurt, butter, ziplock bags for all the bagels I brought back...). And my cats are so happy I'm home it's ridiculous.

[udscoobychick]

*hugs* to those who need them.

Whine: I have a LOT of work to finish up before we leave for Canada tomorrow after work.
Wine: Either Cab Sauv or Malbec...whichever is available wherever we end up going out tonight.

Random: I just had an interview. I think I will be getting an offer. However, I also applied for a federal position, and I stand a good chance at getting an interview for THAT position, but I likely won't know that for another few weeks, at least. And if I get an offer from them, it may take a while (last time I had an offer for a similar position, it was almost a year and a half from when I applied until when they finally withdrew their offer). So, I'm not sure how to handle it. I think I would rather have the federal position, and they come up SO infrequently. But it's not a sure thing, and I feel like I would be a fool to turn down a bird in the hand for a bird in the bush.

Whine: I got nothing done at work that I needed to today bI cause people kept coming to me with issues. I enjoy being needed, but I really could be needed a little less.

Wine: none for me. I need to do some bar review prep work.

[cuddlyevil]

Whine: my pants are fitting better but the scale isn't moving. I'm trying to be patient but I want it to come off faster.

Wine: no wine. I did try a new brewery today and it was a good one.
