FRIDAY RANDOMS!!

[countthestars]

It feels so lively in here. I love the change. I hope people stay energized. It's almost like a sense of camaraderie that we stuck it to TN.

When I eat popcorn, I feel like I have to shove it in my mouth quickly. I don't normally eat like a neanderthal but find that I do with popcorn. So weird.

Add yours please!

DD goes to preschool from 8:45-11:30. Today is field day from 10-11 and they want parents to come. It's so annoying that it's right in the middle of their day and so inconvenient. I'd like to boycott, but DD will be sad

*I am going to a concert tonight and I am super excited! And, another on Tuesday! Yay!

*I got an A in my senior capstone course.

* I am going to be on my own with Alissa all day tomorrow. I hope she isn't in an arguing mood.

*And another AW: I've lost 9.6lbs! I have a coworker doing the HCG diet, and I started reducing calories at the same time she started. (~two weeks ago) I have lost more weight than she has. I just cannot get on board with that diet. Seems so risky.

My fiance picked up overtime tomorrow during the day because we admittedly could use the extra money for some last minute wedding things BUT I'm being pissy about it anyway.

I am putting in a garden and it's sooo much work, I wish it would plant itself.

For Mother's Day, I just want to sleep. I don't want anyone to bug me, just sleep alllllllllllllllllllllllll day.

[Brie]

I'm having a fantastic day. I had a fun workout this morning, treated myself to the Panera breakfast I'd been craving, light workload today, and I'm meeting DH for a lunch date.

The only annoying thing is that I managed to spill coffee on the shoulder of my white cardigan. It's really obvious so I look like a hobo, but I can't take the sweater off because my office is cold.

[flygirl22]

I got in a random debate with my coworker today about leveraging debt and Dave Ramsey, I'm not sure why I even engaged. Sparked only because I was looking for my credit card that I misplaced in my purse. I consider myself pretty debt adverse, but he buys into the entire Dave Ramsey philosophy, and to him, every other way is apparently just stupid.

I like it when DH has to do OT and that makes me feel guilty, I assume my thoughts will change when we have kids.

[CallingAllAngels]

I am being audited at work on Tuesday. I am freaking out about it and feel unprepared. However, I'm still leaving early today to get my hair done.

[Awkward]

I'm pretty sure the nurse on the phone this morning thought I was a crazy person. I swear one of the moles on my back is slightly bigger and darker than it was before, I'd really feel a lot better if someone would take a look at it. I have a family history of skin cancer and my mother has had several moles removed.
I might be a touch over-vigilant, though. @_@

I brought horseradish cheese for lunch and plan on breathing on anyone who annoys me this afternoon. Coworkers, consider yourselves warned.

[thatgirl2478]

My work load has been ridiculously light. Like I might have AN email to check once a week or maybe ONE coupon code to validate... It makes being stuck for 8 hrs SO boring.

[Deleted]

The movers are coming to take my office furniture on Monday (our building is being remodeled). I don't really know where I'm going to go when I come to work after that.

[justjen]

Tomorrow I hit my third trimester which means I GET TO DYE MY HAIR!! (At least according my OBs' rules.)

I usually dye it once a month, and so I've been looking like a hot mess since about November. It's really affected my psyche. I'm so excited to be rid of all this terrible gray. (PS- sig pic is pre-pregnancy

[Mrs.Beagle]

I am feeling better this morning. I credit GBCN.

I'm getting my nails done today and I'm very excited about it.

Also, I just had a very satisfying fart.

And I made guacamole last night. NOM NOM NOM.

[orchid]

*DS has been sleeping really well for the past week and I really hope it stays this way, his 4 month wakefuls were terrible!

*I should really be doing homework for my summer class...but I won't until last minute I'm sure.

*I'm kind of bummed that DH always asks me what I want for birthdays/Christmas/and now Mothers Day. I wish he could take the initiative and come up with something on his own. (Though I am really grateful for anything he decides to get!)

*It is really nice outside and I should take DS for a walk in the stroller...hopefully I'll get around to it.

[Deleted]

I was kid free last night because my mom had DS and DH had a softball game. I went for a long run, ate only quinoa for dinner (DH would never...), took a bubble bath and watched reality TV. It. Was. Bliss.

I don't have to cook for the rest of the weekend due to family dinners and mothers day.

We are spending all day tomorrow at the beach.

I kind of realize that these are more AW's than randoms... oh well. I am so happy.

[melmo1122]

i am super crabby today. BF and i had a little argument first thing this morning, not how i wanted to start my friday.

he apologized for being dumb but i'm still crabby. it's friday, payday, and my boss isn't here. i should be in a good mood!

[womet]

-I am also feeling energized. Loving the new board.
-DH is working tomorrow and I am hoping to get the house cleaned while he's gone. Sounds crazy, but I hate it when our house gets messy.
-DH "milked the bull" yesterday at the RE's office. I'm hoping everything comes back normal or we'll have to proceed to IVF.

[DirtyMartini]

*I am having DH take the kids and I to IHOP tomorrow morning rather than Sunday to celebrate Mother's Day since it will probably be so busy. (Shut up! I know that sounds trashy, but it's what I want!!!!) Then we are going to buy flowers, garden, and have one helluva family time! He thinks this is what I want for Mother's Day, but really it just needs to be done. So, I'm hoping Sunday I can sleep in and have some peace and quiet. Yeah right.

* I am doing nothing at work. Nothing. I teach HS English, and I have had my back to them all morning. Teacher of the year right here.

*I want to write a book, but don't know what it would be about. I guess I just think it would give me something to "do."

[Deleted]

Good luck, Womet. I hope all is normal.

I had to put my cat in time out last night. Now I have to finally read that Cat v. Cat book and maybe get one of those plug in things to calm them down. We were hanging out in the bedroom after work and they don't like change. They flipped out! Noah had Apollo's fur in his mouth when we found him and I almost cried. Then it was so hard to lock him up his time out only lasted like 5 minutes. Cat parenting is hard, ya'll!

[megs193]

I have let my son watch way too much TV today. I am only 32 weeks pregnant and I already feel like a blimp and have no motivation to get off the couch.

[Deleted]

I've always wanted at least 2 kids and DH would be happy to be one and done. We certainly aren't ready for another one right now with a 6 month old who doesn't sleep. We had a whoopsie yesterday afternoon. I was freaked and wanted to take plan B. To my surprise, DH was against it. Now I can't decide if I'm terrified or excited about the possibility of another pregnancy...I guess we'll see

[Deleted]

-Our health insurance changed in November and we had no idea it would be so drastic. DH's doctor failed to bill anything from October-April. I got a bill at the end of last month for around $3k. DH went in and told his doctor that he wasn't happy that they went six months without telling us he owes anything and his doctor said if we paid $2k by the 22nd he would write off everything else. Hooooooolla!

-My boss is out of the office today and I'm ridiculously excited that I get to play on the new board for most of the day.

[baconista]

I am considering moving to the suburbs and I feel like a little piece of me might be dying. Specifically, the single, childfree part of me.

[womet]

Thanks NQB.

[HoneySpider]

I really hate when people AW every single little thing during their pregnancy, especially all over FB. I'm pretty sure when the time comes I'm not even saying I'm pregnant on FB, one day I'm just going to be like "hey, I had a baby."

I get some sharing, I just don't get the need to constantly overshare.

Hahaha! I love this. I think we need a weekly thread for all the weird things our cats do!

[meandhim]

I'm starting to wonder when DH is going to take DS to the store to get me something for Mother's Day. He's running out of time.

[bluelikejazz]

-My nose is going raw from allergies and blowing my nose so much. It hurts!

-The moths have invaded my office and it's gross. There are like 10 dead moths in the bathroom

One month of Feliway and we saw a complete change in our cats. Our cats are dicks and would rip fur on a regular basis, to the point that we would have to break them up.
