Inspired by being a thread highjacker- the OT thread!

[Aidensmom]

I wish I could send some of ours to you.

I'll be there tomorrow! So flippin excited!

If you see the people in my picture below at Magic Kingdom on Saturday, be sure to say "Hi!"

 

[beckmrk04]

What a day. I just got home from work and I'm seriously scared to do anything else today.

6 am- wake up, take my temp, go back to sleep.

8:37 am- wake up, "Oh, ^%$#, the power went out at some point, and my alarm didn't go off. I have to be out the door in 23 minutes.

9:18 am- ok. I didn't make it 20 minutes. Bad Becky.

9:46 am- get to work (still somewhat early at least). I unlock the door, go inside, and punch in my code # for the security system to turn off the alarm.

9:47 am- the alarm starts SCREECHING. Uh-oh! Don't know what to do! Someone make it stop!

9:48 am- phone rings. Terry answers. "No, ADT, we are not robbers... We just didn't turn off the alarm properly."

9:50 am- Terry figures out how to shut off the alarm.

9:52 am- my boss calls. "WTH is going on?" Me: "Don't worry. It's under control. My code didn't work." Boss: "Oh yeah- sometimes the 8 sticks." Me: "Good to know... Now. As opposed to before I sent the thing into a screeching fit."

9:58 am- the police show up. "What's going on?" Grrr. Nothing. Go away.

The rest of my day went fairly smoothly. Office manager still sucks. She leaves and everyone complains about how much she sucks.

Then, 3 pm. Getting ready to leave. It's raining. I'm wearing a thin white shirt (of course) and get soaked. Jump into my car, back out and hit a pole.

So, how was YOUR day?!

 

[beckmrk04]

Just priced and packed up a bunch of stuff for the family yard sale this weekend. I have to work at the salon, and I SO don't want to. I love the town yardsale. Boo. I told dh to keep an eye out for things I might want, though.

Gotta find something conservative to wear to my interview tomorrow morning. If I get the bank job, myonly regret will be that I never did get to do my hair with the red tips.

 

[beckmrk04]

Don't tell me everyone is going to make me talk to myself all night...

 

[beckmrk04]

Hmmmm. Maybe everyone disappeared. I hear things can go *poof*. Maybe DISers can too. Or, maybe they have something better to do...

Naaaah. That can't be it... Maybe they are or ?

Where or where have my OT friends gone? Oh where oh where can they be?
With their witty comments and their thread so long, Oh where or where can they be?

 

[Stacerita]

Here I am!!!!

 

[ktpool]

Hi Becky...sorry you were alone for so long

Had to entertain a business colleague of Dh, his wife and kid...they were nice, but nothing like making dinner for strangers after a day from HE!!. I only asked that they had the house picked up and the floor mopped (hardwood and it looks horrible after the kids have run in and out all day!). Walk in...NOPE. House is not clean. grrrr
Then I had to finsih some homework, since I have to go with DH to a convention this weekend, pack up the kids and myself tonight, then I have to drive 2 hours to meet dh there after picking up the kids and backtracking 20 miles after work!

Okay, done venting...but I will be unable to DIS all weekend. I will be like a junkie in withdrawl. I guess I will have to just do some drining

 

[Stacerita]

And Im proud to say that my breasts didn't assault anyone today!

Yeah me!!!

 

[beckmrk04]

Whew. I'm glad you're here Stace. Who knows what I would have done next. I can only think of so many new lyrics to childrens songs...

 

[beckmrk04]

stace- good job! No breast attacks! Good for you!

ktpool- sounds like a hectic day! Definitely have a drink. Or three. Whatever you can get away with. You think the convention will have a Kungaloosh? Wishful thinking, I'm sure.

I need that recipe.

 

[beckmrk04]

i just did my nails. And I need to touch up my brows. I picked out outfit for tomorrow.

I'm not really nervous though. I guess I just keep thinking I'm not going to get the job anyway, so wth. And I have a good shot at it, but recently I have been suffering from "get-my-hopes-up-itis." I get all excited, and then- BAM. Nothing works the way I wanted it to.

So, we'll see.

Gosh, I have been grumpy lately.

 

[ktpool]

Think positive! I know that is so hard....

Maybe you didn't get pg too soon so you had another month to settle into a new job )


Good luck Becky - I am going to bed, I need to stop thinking about my stressful day.
See you guys later!

 

[beckmrk04]

I was thinking that too, about the pg thing, ktpool. Thanks for the good luck! Have a good weekend! : Good night!

 

[Stacerita]

I came home from work today and the sweetpea had baked a cake. I just had a sliver (still dieting) and it was soooooo good. I could have had a whole chunk of it. Yum!

 

[beckmrk04]

Aw, that was nice of her to bake it, though! And good for you- I struggle with self-control during diets.

 

[Stacerita]

I have self control issues too when dieting. But I tried on a skirt last night that I want to wear next weekend, and OMG! I got it on, and buttoned it, but the zipper was screaming for mercy! Plus I could barely breathe. And the muffin top was unbelievable. So thats why I was able to have a bit of self control with the cake tonight.

 

[beckmrk04]

Ew- I just HATE it when clothes don't fit. If it weren't for my clothes being too small I'd probably ignore the fact that my butt was expanding.

ANd You know- I had never heard the term "muffin top" until today, and now I've heard it like a hundred times.

 

[Stacerita]

We are well aware of muffin tops in this area. We see them alll the time. The sweetpea has no shame in pointing out people with them. I dont wear clothes where some one would be able to see mine. I will say this though, when I go to a pool or beach or something, I will put one of my friends on "roll patrol".

 

[beckmrk04]

I don't wear clothes that would expose my "muffin top" either. Jeans that fit are the only way to go. I ain't trying to pretend I'm not chunkers. I know I am.

I'm feeling all moody and anxious. DH is gonna LOVE me tonight. I'm kinda upset with him (although I recognize that I am overreacting, so I am trying to get back some semblance of sanity before he gets home).

 

[Stacerita]

Well at least you realize you are overreacting. I never do, till its to late.
