I didn't set my alarm last night and woke up later than usual. It made my morning pump shorter which is when I get my "big" haul for the day. I had to dip into frozen to send bottles with DD to daycare. Then while I'm getting her bottles ready DH comes downstairs and says that after all bills are paid we basically have no "free" money this pay period. It was a not-fun start to a Friday (and a pay-day Friday at that!)
I thought for a good solid minute this morning about saying something to him about not dropping that crappy news on me. Then I remembered that I'm an adult and being an adult sucks sometimes. Also FWP.
He also got to feed DD her bottle this morning so I feel like I barely saw her.
@HilarityEnsued 100% nodding in agreement. I'll take it a step further and say I lived my youth fully, but I was always aching for the day where I'd be right where I am now. Settled, in love, with a beautiful child, boring things to do, something in the slow cooker and a few half finished crochet projects. I couldn't ask for more.
I agree with this too, and I wouldn't trade my current life for anything but goddamn if I wouldn't love ONE WEEKEND with no responsibilities and the chance to sleep in until 11.
I also sometimes miss the fact that these young'uns have so much ahead of them - the world is their oyster KWIM? Plus I loved school so every September is a little bumming in that I'm not going back to school.
Also, I think my brain would explode if I had to tell DH all of my past indiscretions. @golfergirl08 I see no point in telling him. The idea of knowing my H's entire sexual history and sharing mine just feels exhausting. It happened, it's over, who cares?
I hope that doesn't sound terribly bitchy...I only mean you shouldn't feel bad about that.
Yep. I've done a lot of things. DH knows the general story and but not all the details. I'm not withholding info. If he asks I'll tell him but I don't see the point in rehashing it all. If I'm perfectly honest I was too drunk/high to remember certain things too. I feel the same about his past. I don't need to know about every girl he's ever touched.
I know you are not leaving. You're like a bad rash. It was another way to say
BYE FELICIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Or I don't give a fuck what you say because you always feel the need to come for me but you are a nonmotherfucking factor in my world and what makes me happy or sad.
All I see is misery.
----------------- Um. Can someone please put in the "that escalated quickly!" gif?
I don't even understand sushi, like how don't people get sick? Isn't it raw fish? Idk I should stay out of food discussions since my palate is really unsophisticated.
The raw stuff has to be flash frozen to kill any bad things that might be in it. It's delicious. Plus some sushi rolls have cooked stuff. You're missing out!
I bought an $80 bra this week. It is fantastic and amazing and fits wonderfully and I even feel kind of sexy wearing it (which isn't a way I usually feel).
My mother said she wanted me to pick out another one and she'd buy it for me. I'm going to take her up on that offer.
Probably not going to read most of these 13 pages. But I do have somewhat of a confession that I don't think I have shared before.
My best friend from college (a guy, not that it really matters) and I sort of hooked up in the interim period between my high school/early college boyfriend and meeting DH. It was a weird drunken St. Paddy's day hookup, and really only involved heavy petting/ third base. We both pretended it didn't happen the next day.
But I have never told DH about it. I think he would feel weird, because I lived with this friend for a couple years and we were very close. He shouldn't feel weird because it didn't mean anything, but I still think he would.
I have drunkenly half-way hooked up with my dude BFF about twice. We both talked about it sober and how it was stupid/a bad idea/never going to go anywhere ever.
I don't feel the need to tell SO's this as an obligation or anything, because it was so meaningless. It might come up in the middle of other story-telling, but I don't make a point to mention it.
If you do get one anyway, be careful of parrots, because I think they live a crazy long time. Like, your kid will be long since grown and out of the house, and you'll still be stuck with the bird.
I just got the Groupon deal for the day in my email. It's for Adam and Eve, $25 for $45. I will probably buy the Groupon because I want a new vibrator.

Day 3 with no car. I had nothing to bring for lunch. I also shouldn't order food because the repairs to the car are going to be ungodly expensive. But I have to eat... Right?
Oh here's a real fffc I guess. I hope he comes in September because I fucking love sapphires and that gives me hope I might own one someday. I don't know what the birth stone for October is. But I wouldn't actually schedule the CS just for that. So not fffc. NVM!
Tourmaline and opal. October babies are amazing, smart, adorable, and just all around awesome. It's not because I was born in October or anything. I'm just stating facts.
Also, I think my brain would explode if I had to tell DH all of my past indiscretions. @golfergirl08 I see no point in telling him. The idea of knowing my H's entire sexual history and sharing mine just feels exhausting. It happened, it's over, who cares?

My husband doesn't even know how many people I've slept with, or when I lost virginity. I don't know those things about him either. I don't see the point.
I don't even know how many people I've slept with. I guess that could go here.
I guess because I've never really liked mine. Always been jealous of people who have really nice ones like diamonds or rubies.
Just buy a diamond or ruby?
I don't know why it just sounds cool to me when people have a pretty piece of jewelry and they can say it's their birthstone. Mine's a topaz which is orange or blue a lot of the time so that just doesn't really appeal to me.
A long time ago I thought I wanted to name a daughter Diamond. I watched a lot of American Gladiator at the time.
So I like gems. My BIL is a jeweler and it's a real perk. I even borrowed some earrings for my wedding, like an Oscar star. It's a material world and I am a material girl. Sometimes.
I am struggling big time with this over supply thing but feel like I can't really talk about it because I know a lot of people having the reverse problem right now. But listening to my kid choking and gagging every time he tries to nurse is breaking my heart.
I had a ridiculous oversupply for a while too. When it didn't improve around 3 months, I started block feeding. What didn't help up was I had to feed her from both boobs Everytime for about 3 weeks because she wasn't gaining well.
Point is, it gets better. Now she gets pissed when my let down isn't really fast
I am never going to get to the end of this before E wakes up and I have to go to work, so...
I am super awkward, even on here. I feel like I can't make friends no matter what because I'm afraid to put myself out there. I got excited the other day when one of my coworkers told me that the waitresses like me, then I realized that I got excited over high school girls thinking I'm cool. They should not think I'm cool. There is nothing about me that is cool.
Part two of that being this: said coworker mentioned that her daughter has this older boyfriend (she's 17, he is 20) and that she thinks the boyfriend is only with her daughter to get in her pants. She wants me to try and talk to her daughter to make her see the light since she thinks I'm cool. She wants me to tell her daughter stories about boys using me and breaking my heart, etc. I don't have stories like that. H and I started dating when we were 14 and 16, and he is the only guy I've ever slept with, so I don't feel qualified to be the one to talk her down.
TL;DR: I am awkward, feel like I have no friends and have led a very sheltered life.

I love good sushi, but I am not down with sushi buffets (or any buffets really).
Donut holes have negative calories, right? Because they are the only part that is missing from a donut, so they are like an anti-donut?
I mean, that's just science.

But I don't want to have that conversation, because I like the mystery.

Close enough! I married a scorpio so we good.
