I guess I'll start it since no one else has yet!

I have 2 today!

1. Last night I took both kids to the Zombie Walk downtown and I wasn't completely sure that they would take it well! DS was unsure about it for the first few minutes, then didn't mind it at all. DD actually seemed amused by it. Which I thought was funny because people can come up to her in the grocery store and try to make friendly with her and she just scowls at them. but she smiles at the zombies!!

2. I suck at making friends. There are a couple of other moms I talk to at church and we may get together a couple times, but after that things just fall through. It's so hard to keep a friendship going. I pretty much have no friends right now. But I desperately want one!

1) I ate too much garlic on Monday (I blame DH!) and for two days smelled like garlic. I even had to go home early on Tuesday--partly because of the smell and partly because I felt sick. I think I ate a whole bag of mints in the course of two days. I felt bad too: when I came home on Tuesday, DS was so excited to see me, but all I could do was pat his head and then run to the bathroom.

2)  I'm jealous of a friend who got a promotion within my company even though she has been working with them for less (only 9 months) whereas I have been here for 7+ years.  Part of it is that she works in a less desirable part of town (the west side...ugh) whereas I work in a generally nicer area.  As a result, when I applied to the same position at a different location, there were 11 other people competing with me for the same spot; whereas for her position/location, she was the only one. Ever since finding out about her promotion, I haven't talked to her.

Ick. I know the feeling.  DH gets on me for not keeping in touch with friends from college. 

Oddly, I remember an article talking about the type of friends men vs women typically make.  From what I remember, men end up making deeper connections whereas women have more superficial friendships.  (As for how true this is, I do not have the article anymore so the details are vague. However, I do like to think this is the reason why I suck at relationships with other women.)

I know it's Sunday but I saw there were only a couple responses so I decided to add mine.

I totally reuse the boys bottles for up to two days at a time, sticking them in the fridge in between feedings of course, because I simply have no patience for washing all the damm Dr Browns parts ten times a day!!
