Home Depot cancelled on us yesterday for the FOURTH time to install a new window in what will be our nursery, replacing the 100 year old (literally) current one that is covered in lead paint. They don't know when they will be able to reschedule because it turns out they also ordered the wrong size window, so they have to place a whole new order. I raged about it for hours, until I went on FB and saw the trending story about the chemical explosion in China. Then I felt like a horrible person.
I have a strangely strong perma-craving for 100% chocolate... Well... The place with my favorite kind ran out a few days ago (not only because of me, I swear!). So today I bought a crappy ghirardelli one at a nearby grocer... only to see when I went to pick up my lunch later that the place with my favorite one had restocked. So I had to buy two chocolate bars. And now I will have to eat both over the course of the weekend--I'm sure of it. ETA I shouldn't have called the ghirardelli one crappy. That wasn't fair. But the comparison is staggering is all.......

Just got to the right body temperature after turning down the AC at the office, then a company meeting was called where we had to be outside in the shop area. Now I'm cold again X(

100% is too strong for me, but have you tried the Lindt dark chocolate bars with sea salt? Amaaaazing.

Mmmhmm omg yesssss! Sea-salt chocolate is totally my second-favorite at the moment! I can't find any versions with more than 76% cacao though. And they often have almonds, which are against my present food aversions, unfortunately. There's this brand called... something with an M... Good stuff. Anyway, long story, I guess, but, yes: this sea-salt chocolate issue is another leg of my first-world problems!

A patient made me a candy dispenser. All I wanted was gobstoppers to put inside. Target didn't have any. Now my candy dispenser is sad and empty because it was too much work to drive a mile past my house to Kroger to get gobstoppers.
Sitting for a manicure is like torture to me. I love pedicures but manicures are like the worst thing in the world. I let my nails go for too long before going - sometimes three weeks or until someone points out that I need one stat.

HA I will actually agree with you on this one. I don't do manicures, ever, really. I have had fake nails put on a few times but had to take them off because I despise sitting there doing nothing for 30-45 min. I also don't like the tanning bed for this reason too. I think its because we (I) are so use to constant entertainment I don't like being without my phone or a book.

I'm exactly the opposite, but I think it's because I could do my toes myself in 5 mins or less, so I feel like I'm wasting a ton of time getting them done (I still love it, but feel awful going)...but I couldn't do my nails if my life depended on it.
I got off an earlier exit on my way home from work yesterday just so I could get a mcdonalds ice cream cone sooner than the one closer to my house and their ICE CREAM MACHINE WAS BROKEN HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN... Which then ticked on an extra 8 minutes to my time. So then I went and got one at the one by my house. Worth every minute.

Lol someone points out that you need one? Who do you know haha. I've never had a manicure or pedicure, thank heavens nobody has commented!

Ha I've had friends call me out when the polish is massively chipped... Not like when they're unpainted - which I'll do sometimes when I'm too lazy to get them done because I can't do them myself.

I am debating if SO and I should go out to eat after I get done with work since I have to eat a lot so I can try to gain weight. Pancakes or sleeping is what it comes down to...

I have a friend like that. She'll say my nails are disgusting until I do something about it.I used to do my nails every week but now I do them whenever I feel like. I just can't be bothered.

Haha this made me laugh only because in a few months you won't be able to do your own toes! My h painted my toes once when I was pregnant with dd... It was a hot mess.

Someone is coming today to mow our lawn and I don't want to go outside to check for dog poop first...granted, if there is any then it's dry because it's been in the 100s for a while now.

DH is the dog poop/grass cutter guy. And if he misses some, NBD 1) because I'm not the one who has to walk through it behind the lawn mower and 2) free fertilizer! I think he misses on purpose sometimes bc our grass looks amazing lol.

THAT IS THE WORST! And has happened to me twice, at different McDonalds, on different days!!! Aaaaaaaaaaargh!!!
While I was walking my dog, I was struggling to affix my poop bag holder to my keychain and dropped my iPhone and cracked the screen. This seemed like a very first world problem!

@chitownparent Girl. Ugh. I am embarrassed to admit how much money I have spent fixing the screen on my phone.... More than what I paid for this iPhone. Serious FWP.

So I went to Domino's to get pizza for carryout and ordered a medium pan pizza. Halfway through it baking, I notice a sign- today's special was a large two topping pizza for carryout, for $3 less than what I paid for my medium! WTF? First of all, I'm mad that I didn't notice before I ordered. But mostly I'm super irritated that the guy at the register wouldn't just SAY, "Hey, you can get a large for less, since it's our special today!" Jerk.
I had been craving a BLT for days. I went to a new deli and I ordered a BLT with cheese... Got in the car, pulled out my sandwich, took a bite... They forgot the cheese!
I got my new bathing suit at the beginning of summer haven't worn it yet because of ms all summer now we finally get to take a trip where we get to swim and it doesn't fit (bump and mega swelling)Now I have to try to find another one and we all know the AGONY of trying on and finding a swimsuit
