Thing 2’s new car seat should be delivered today. Score! I got him his very own Britax Marathon from Amazon for $199. I love a good bargain. And I love Britax. The seats are so nice. So he’ll be just like big brother in a few hours.
How much weight do you honestly think I can lose in 1.5 months? I’ve decided my goal is to be smoking hot for the hubby’s Christmas party this year. I want to be toned and 5-10 lbs thinner. Possible? Without resorting to purging? One of my co-workers (a gym rat) said he’s jiuce me up with steroids and the weight would fall off. LMAO. Just call me Arnold.
Thing 2 has been peeing out his diapers for the last 3 nights. Damn that. Thing 1 never did that. But, I did love him more and used cloth diapers. Oh well. Changing sheets is easier than scraping poop off a diaper.
I just ate 7 Halloween candies. I guess that diet will have to wait another day.
I need to go vote tomorrow morning. I will not stand in line with 2 kids Tuesday to do it. Will not. Why can’t Obama send someone to watch my kids so I can vote. Didn’t they do crazy shit like that in the primaries? He could send some homeless person. As if they don’t suffer enough, make them watch my kids for 2 hours. They’ll start drinking if they weren’t before.
I’m doing a life spring cleaning right now. Cutting back on a lot of things I don’t really need anymore so I can have more time to devote to the things I want to.
Last week I decided to cut the TV show Heroes out of my line up. It’s been really stupid this season, the acting sucks balls, and I just can’t get into it anymore. At least I still have Lost… whenever it comes back on.
I’m also limiting my Internet time some. I cut back on a lot of websites. I dropped quite a few from new Babycenter alone. My list of groups is almost manageable now.
I’m waiting for my mom to come over so we can go shopping. I have to get my CPR renewed tonight. Fun, fun, fun.
This weekend at work I was introduced to something very disturbing. I’m going to share it with you, but I’m going to give you fair warning: it’s horrible. If you have small children please have them leave the room. People with heart problems or who may be pregnant should consult their doctor.
You were warned!
We were talking about high school and Homecoming crap at work Saturday night. One of my co-workers said something like “Yeah, and those ugly garters guys wear and the big mums the girls wear”. So I try to correct him: “Guys don’t wear garters, girls wear them on their legs. And do you mean corsages?”.
“No” he replies. “Those huge mum things girls wear for Homecoming”. Again, I assume he’s a moron and talking about a wrist corsage. So he tells me to google “Homecoming” and “mums”. What I witnessed was one of the most disturbing things I have ever seen in my life.
These my friends are what I found:
They are these huge cluster fucks of ribbon and flowers. According to my co-worker it’s a Texas thing. Girls (and guys) wear these huge eyesores during Homecoming week. They girls wear them on their shirts and the giys on their arms.
ACK! Please God no! Let him be lying! But he wasn’t. I asked other people I work with and they all knew about it. Then comes the worst part. It’s not just some podunk town thing. People in our city do it too! Double ACK! They then went on to tell me that the guys buy the “mum” for the girls and they girls buy the “garter” for the guy. Sorry Thing 1&2, but mommy don’t play that. I will forbid you from putting that piece of eye vomit on a girl you like.
But it gets better! A quick google search gave me a site that sells these things. You too can have your own ADHD ribbon for the low low price of around $60 – $80! What girl would want this? I could get some cute shoes for that price instead of a funeral flower arrangement on my chest.
We may have to leave Texas before the boys get in high school. I can’t keep a straight face if a girl come to the house wearing that.
I love List of the Day so much! I can’t believe one of my posts made his blog! I can die happy now. Plus, if I died right now, the hubby would be stuck with 2 kids. So not only would I be happy but he’d be miserable. Win-win!
Last night, the hubby calls me on his way home from work. He informs me that they are having a pot luck and he has to bring refried beans and chips. Tomorrow! WTF?! And I’m just finding this out at 5:30pm the night before?!
He says they told him just to pick up a can or 2 of beans. Ummm… no! Sorry, but I can’t send my husband to work with a can of beans. Ewwww. So now I have to figure out how the hell to make refried beans. Now, given that I hate beans, I have no idea what refried beans even taste like. So I go online and find a promising recipe that does not involve a pressure cooker. I don’t own a pressure cooker. Who knew beans would involve so much cooking.
So I’m off to the store at 7pm to get what I need. I throw it all in the crockpot and say a little prayer before I go to sleep. I wake up this morning and much up the beans. I hope to God these fuckers taste ok. I made the hubby promise to call me and tell me if they go over ok.
The people 3 doors down from me put up this monstrosity.
I have no problem with people putting up tacky shit for the holidays. But he leaves it on 24 hrs a day. So all day and all night it is playing that God forsaken music. Who does that shit? Do we need to hear that at 10am? I hope it breaks…soon
When I tell you this, please try to remain calm. It will do neither of us any good for you to try to hunt me down and kill me. Just accept your jealousy and move on. We can still be friends.
The hubby told me last week what band was going to be playing at his Christmas party this year. I’m please to announce that I will be rocking out to Styx this year!
Ok, so I have no idea who Styx is, LOL. Last year we got to hear “Chicago”. I put that in quotes because since Peter Cetera is no longer in the group I don’t see how they can legally still go by that name. Peter was Chicago. But whatever.
But it’s not just one band this year. Oh no sir. We also get Lonestar. Now, as far as I can tell Lonestar take good songs, covers them and makes the “country” so a whole new audience enjoys them. Much like Johnny Cash did with Nine Inch Nails. If you’ve never seen Cash sing “Hurt” you’re missing out on life:
I lost my wallet last week. What a pain in the ass that is. We had to close our credit card and our debit card. Plus I had to go to the DMV to get a new license. Want to know how it gets even better? My picture on my military ID is HORRIBLE. So I was a little happy that I would need a new one. And guess what? Before I get there to get a new one, someone found my wallet! Doesn’t that just figure.
We got screwed this weekend. We had friends in town and we decided to go to this place that is a drive thru safari thing with animals. Well, the hubby didn’t look online to see how much it cost. We get there and it’s $16 a person! OMG! If I n=knew that, I would have said no way. The zoo would have been cheaper!
Thing 2 is having major stranger danger and is stuck up my butt non-stop. That’s getting old.
