Why can't I get over this? DOC band....

Ok, I'm over the fact that DS has a DOC band (we CHOSE to get it for him.)

I'm just totally bummed about how it's decorated....(cut and paste from my FB response to Lizzy)

We wanted Dr. Seuss, but they stopped doing many items such as due to copyright legal issues (just in case). So we had NO idea what to do. We played around with a few things and then they got busy so we were super rushed. Of course, I didn't say a damn thing (same type of thing happened on my wedding day when my hair was getting done....I hated ... it, but didn't say anything.) It's blue with stars and his name on the front. The back has a cartoon of "the cow jumping over the moon". I'm stuck with this for 2-3 months. Sigh. All because I can't speak up. I was in tears when we got in the car. They were really nice and actually didn't charge us for it (not because I didn't like it, they didn't know that. They were just really sweet people.)
 
Seriously, what a ridiculous thing to be upset over in the grand scheme (sp?) of things.....Okay, I think I'm talking myself out of this funk while I'm typing.

  • Meh... sounds like maybe some other anxieties are manifesting themselves in your dislike of the doc band. Or, could just be that you don't like it and feel guilty for not liking it, and that's okay, too! This is kinda a big deal. ((hugs))

    It will be fine. I bet you'll grow to love it, or at least it won't bother you very much after a little while.?

  • It sounds cute!  Were you expecting it to be more busy?  Sometimes simplicity is better with these things.

  • I'm so sorry. :(  I tend to get worked up over things that I shouldn't let bother me (and I don't ever speak up for myself either). If you're anything like me - I'm sure it looks great, but because it's not exactly what you envisioned, it's not great enough. I'm sure you'll be the only one to notice! Just remember, it's just a thing. Something he'll wear for a couple months and then not have to think about again. *hugs!*

  • I LOVE you guys.  :::lots of zombie hugsLeft Hug:::
  • hugs right back, i love this board.  I really don't know what i'd do without this outlet.  As far as the DOC band, it sounds super cute, i love stars and the cow jumping over the moon is great :o)  I agree with MrsDonkey, perhaps this is all the craziness of late coming out?
