I got on my elevator and there was a girl who had two big boxes and since we ran out of boxes I asked if I could have them instead of her taking them to recycling. They had a bunch of wrapping and smaller boxes inside. I offered to dispose of them. So I got upstairs and took it all out only to find a Swiffer starter kit and a pack of wet refills inside. I took them to her condo to give them back and she wasn't there. So I left it downstairs with my security guard to make sure she gets them. She will be happy I took the box off her and found them instead of her accidentally throwing them out!

I have so many poop stories, but my H would kill me if I told the best ones. Lol. He and my ex BFF used to text each other pictures of their poop though. This went on a couple times a day for a few weeks. She was this dainty, feminine girl too, but she thought poop and farts were the funniest thing ever. It was the weirdest thing ever.
My mom is finally feeling the babies move for the first time, I called her over like 5 minutes ago and she hasn't moved a muscle since, they happen to be having HUGE movements so shes giggling up a storm
Eta: she ran to get my dad and he came out they were starting to calm down but thankfully someond kicked him. He felt it for a second then started to walk away, hes been super emotional for all of this so it was sweet he got to feel too! Now they're back to wiggle worming
Sorry I was afk for the last two days, my brother was in town and I took DD out of daycare for family fun. It didn't wind up being so fun because brother who is a little flakey lost her in the museum while he was supposed to be watching her while I used the restroom. I came out and I'm like where is she, he's texting on his phone and is like well she was just here, but it's a huge place with a lot of kids so I was impressed I didn't have a breakdown while frantically searching for her little pigtails.
ETA he found her within 5 minutes but I was none too happy.

And now for my poop story. My husband had a house in the ghetto before we met and it was broken into a couple of times while they lived there so him and his roommate bought a house in a nicer part of town and rented out this house. So he was basically a slumlord. Anyway after we met the tenants couldn't afford to pay their rent anymore and my DH decided that his days as a slumlord were over and he wanted to sell the property.
Only issue is between when the tenants moved out and we sold it, it was vacant in a bad neighborhood and kept getting broken into. Like weekly it sucks. Anyway DH had turned off the water in the house note sure if that was before or after the copper pipes were stoles and we replaced them with plastic tubing. So whoever broke into this time had to poop and used the toilet and then it wouldn't flush. So when they figured that out the pooped in the closet, I called the cops and the collected the "evidence" Now this was just about 5 years ago because we were in the process of planning our wedding at the time. So I get a call a few months ago from the city police saying that the evidence they collect from the house had been matched. I told the officer we didn't own the house anymore but to please call the evidence what it was poo in the closet. Anyway it was the funniest phone call to have gotten 5 years after the fact.

Glad you found her quickly @bntfroggie . i would have freaked out too.
I realized I have a funny story. Detroit does a big parade for Thanksgiving every year. My friend used to live in a condo right on the main road of the parade, which was awesome because we could watch from her front yard. At one point the parade was stopped for a bit, and we had the clown corp in front of us for a while. One of the clowns really had to use the bathroom so he asked if he could use theirs. Apparently he had to poop, so he left a $10 bill on the sink counter. We still laugh about the clown pooper.
I can't keep the kittens out of the baby's bassinets. I'm not mad at them for being kittens and acting as such, but my $300 playard / bassinet/ changing table has so many bite marks and rips in it now. Ugh.

Man, today is dragging. I feel like it should for sure be closer to time to go home. I'm exhausted for some reason. And hungry because my lunch wasn't that good. And it's all I can think about. Might have to leave early... It's an EMERGENCY.
Ooh I’m going to use that tin foil idea. My cats are obsessed with our bassinet too. We just have it covered with a throw right now but that has only further piqued their interest.
I really want to go get my nails done tomorrow (mani/pedi) to just relax and decompress after this week. However, I'm really not in the mood for small talk or awkward silences (introvert problems). Is it totally rude to just tell the tech I want to relax and put in earbuds?
@sammierose464 i don't think that is rude at all! for one thing, you are paying for the experience and it should be enjoyable for you. also, it may just be that the person doing it is just as happy that way...they are making small talk with people all day. i just had a similar conversation recently because a friend of mine does hair and loves it when people bring music/a book/etc and she can just do her thing, as long as they communicate enough to tell her what they want/don't want.
@norahkate thanks, that's what I was thinking. My coworker told me that's what she does. When I see my hair dresser we talk the WHOLE time, but that's because we are friends and it's our catch up time.
Took all morning but I finally found a chiropractor that works on pregnant women and is covered by my insurance. Sat 11th cannot come fast enough. I'm feeling as uncomfortable as usually do in the ninth month of pregnancy and I'm only in the 6th!
@sammierose464 I almost never talk to the people doing my nails...most of the time in those strip mail nail centers I find they aren't as chatty as a nice spa lol.
Everyone sitting near me in the cubical forest today is driving me crazy. Stop softly whistling, taking personal calls, sucking on your teeth, taking calls on speak phone, chewing gum loudly. I hate everyone.
@sliztee but what about an "open concept"? I essentially work in a glorified computer lab/call center. Zero personal space, and very loud and distracting.
@sammierose464 As a nail tech I can confidently say that they don’t want you to talk to them anyway. We want to work, small talk is our least favorite part. Bring earbuds or a book and we will leave you alone!!
Re: Randoms (7/29)
These poop stories are pretty gross and very funny. Hopefully I’ll find the humor in whatever poopsplosions lie ahead.l
