H and I have been planning a trip to New Orleans to visit a friend in December. I just found out he is planning the same trip with his college friends, no gfs or wives allowed. I plan on milking this as long as possible, making plans for things to do and such, to see how he plays this (he doesn't know I know about his 'bro sesh' [thats seriously what they call it--they're fratty]). Also, most likely it will end up being him and his friends rather than he and I, which pisses me off bc we haven't had a vacay in forever. SO if we end up pregnant this month, I've passive aggressively decided to withhold that information until the day before they leave for NO ( I planned on waiting until thanksgiving anyway, so it'd only be an extra few days) knowing he wouldn't leave me newly pregnant and alone for an extended weekend. If I can't go, ain't no one goin'!

ETA- spelling

Total dick move. I laughed about it, but yea, totally a dick move. Why don't you just tell him you don't want him to go? A guilt trip would be more much effective on my DH vs being PA with him.
Oh I'm sure it'd backfire on me. I just found out about the double plan yesterday so I'm fired up. I'll probably cool off by the time it actually comes up. Plus I'm fairly certain we won't be preg this month anyway. I'm just salty about it at this point in time.

Lulu has been a real pill this morning. And Perry kept me up like all night. I'm also on my own tonight because my H will either be working late or useless because he's still fighting the awful man cold. Either way, I'm already planning on what to drink and wondering if they would notice at work if I poured wine in my coffee cup after finishing my coffee.

I definitely drank a beer out of my travel mug yesterday afternoon. I blame work colleagues for leaving left-over beer. What do they expect to happen to it?!

I wore a night gown as a shirt with leggings yesterday. In my defense. You can't tell. It's flannel. Just looks like a tunic flannel button down shirt.

I also want to wear it for our family photos.

Belt it with boots, I bet it'll look awesome!

I wanted no part of that discussion, but generally speaking, you'd be well received if you just posted here regularly like all of us (ok, most of us, I see you dirty lurking love titters)

I have been mostly loving posts the past couple weeks because I found out I was rolling off my project - TODAY!!!! - I have been here for 4 years and have been miserable since coming back from ML.

Today I am just wrapping up some last items and then I will not feel the least bit guilty that not everything is finished.

I was super gassy and super pissed at MH the other night so I left a trail of stinky farts for him to follow on my way up to the bedroom.

That's not a very clean thing to do, spoof

Yep, woke up late. I may need to mosey on over to Starbucks, but I never get it so I don't know what is good. All I know is PSL and I am pumpkined out. Any suggestions? I prefer mine blonde and sweet.

You can't use the baby as an excuse? I loathe the day that I can't use her need to nap or go to bed as an excuse to leave somewhere.

DH has been sober for over 6 weeks now. I'm so proud of him and so happy with the positive direction our relationship is headed. I'm a little mad at myself for the way I went about things (giving him an ultimatum) and the way he has since handled everything. He is a recovering alcoholic but won't admit that. He has basically told all his friends/ family that I just don't like having alcohol around. We haven't hung out with anyone in over 6 weeks because everyone drinks. I don't want to put him in a situation that he is uncomfortable or will be tempted to drink, so I'm ok with that. My issue is that none of our friends and family are being supportive. They aren't being supportive because they don't realize what an issue it was. Part of that is my fault. I care too much about what other people think and don't really want people to think my husband is a raging alcoholic. So I let him tell people that the issue was me.
Last night we went trick or treating with our neighbors and they kept trying to offer H a beer, saying how he is no fun anymore etc. I'm proud of H for turning down the beer and shrugging everything off, but I can't really blame the neighbors for saying that. I know that if people knew the truth they would be so supportive but I don't know what to do at this point. andplusalso? who brings a wagon with a cooler full of beer to ToT for an hr with a bunch of 3 yr olds?

The last time DH's car registration came due, I misunderstood it and threw out the notice, and a month later he got pulled over and the car got towed. He blamed it on the fact that "the registry doesn't send out notices anymore" and I didn't say anything. That was two years ago. It just came due again, and I meant to pay it and totally forgot. He found out the registration was expired when he went to get it inspected. I feel awful, but he totally blames the registry again.

In TX the registration sticker is on the front windshield so it is easy to glance at the sticker and see the date. In TN, it is on the plates and I never look at my plates. I am positive my registration will expire without my knowledge. I also don't read my mail so hopefully DH will catch it.

This happens with my in-laws too. We go to my mom's house for dinner almost every week, but we only stay 2 hours. I've gotten into the habit of trying to get together with them only a few hours before a nap or bed, so we can excuse ourselves.

tinyhumantoe · November 2013

A bunch of people gained some points and others lost points on my personal point system after the posts this week. The points are very important because for every 7500 points you get JudgeBucks where you earn $25 off every $50, but you have to shop between 11:00-11:03 am on Nov 13 (a weekday during work hours). JudgeBucks cannot be used on sale,or clearance items [other arbitrary exclusions apply]. When you get to the register after spending two hours picking out stuff, you won't be able to use them on anything you selected because I'll be running a parallel sale with only two small signs posted in the back facing the wall, indicating that 3/4 of the store items are 3.2% off, therefore excluding them from your JudgeBucks eligibility. That's how the buck-things work, right?

Anyway, it's fair for me to judge threads I wasn't able to participate in because I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have said anything mean or completely cunty had I participated.

That is awesome that your DH hasn't had a drink in 6 weeks! It's a one day at a time thing! While I understand not having alchol in the house you shouldn't be the escape goat for his problem. He needs to realize he has a problem and not blame it on you if you guys ever expect to get through this and him stay sober.

ETA: I hope that doesn't come off as rude because that's not at all how I intend it to.

@holly_1007 I'm sure that's a hard situation to be in. I'm so glad for your family that he is staying sober!

all of the dads in our neighborhood growing up did this

but seriously, as far as the rest. I've never been through this, but I imagine it's goign to be difficult for awhile. And, I think, if it were me, I'd be just as ticked for him blaming me. Does HE realize he had a legitimate problem? Because if he won't admit that to himself, that would worry me.

But regardless- 6 weeks is a huge accomplishment!

yes and no. He is going to therapy to try to figure it out. I kind of backed him against the wall and made him get help without letting him figure it out himself. So part of that is my fault, but I couldnt let him lose everything if that was what it took to get to that point. I would rather he blame me than people know he is an alcoholic. I guess that's the confession part. Plus- he hasn't fully accepted that he is a recovering alcoholic.

I may have kicked DH several times last night. I get that he has a cold - but his snoring is interrupting my sleep!! Ugh.

Then I was a little pissy this morning because I was tired - even though it's not really his fault.

I always give DH a nice swift quick when he's snoring-every night- and then grunt at him to roll over. It's awful.

The bold aggravates me so much. I'm someone that just doesn't have a good relationship with alcohol. I only drink the hard stuff, and I only drink to get drunk. I chose not to drink at all so that way it's just easier for me. Why do people assume that if you're not drinking that you're not fun anymore? That's bullshit.

I think its just that group of friends. We need to find new ones. I really didn't think ToT with 3 yr olds at 6pm was going to be an event that required drinking.

Hopefully, he'll get there (the realization that he's an alcoholic), because I do think that's part of moving forward. If he doesn't believe he has a problem, it's probably easier to slide back into old habits, because he can rationalize it wasn't his issue. I also don't think it was wrong of you to "make him get help". I am so glad to hear that he's getting help though. I've been wondering how things were going since you first posted about it.

No, I totally get what you are saying. My options were to either give him an ultimatum (quit drinking or I file for divorce) or let him hit rock bottom and figure it out on his own (at which point we could have lost everything and still ended up divorced) He chose to quit drinking and is going to therapy. I'm trying to get him to go to AA but he isn't there yet. Hopefully he will figure it out on his own with the help of his therapists and my support. So far so good

Anyway, I can see your point as to why that seems extra cunty. That's not why I have chosen my poorly thought out revenge plan. Like I said in response to someone else, I just found out about this yesterday so I'm stabby about it. I will get over it whichever ending plays out, and most likely won't care either way by the time that weekend rolls around. Just upset that we had this mini trip planned and I'm being deceived as to what's apparently happening.

MIL gave W a rice crispy treat after dinner last week.....minutes after W refused dinner because she just woke up, and after I had just said we'll try dinner again in a half hour.

W was eating a sugar wafer when I picked her up from DC last week.

I didn't say anything either time.

When MIL brought some strawberry smoothie drink with probiotics and 5565g of sugar for W to drink on Monday, I told her that W could only have 4 oz mixed with milk explaining that she needed the probiotics (she was on an antibiotic), but that it was way too sugary for a kid and I didn't see any reason to give a 1 year old sugar. She also brought juice and I said no, it's too much sugar and has no purpose - she was drinking plenty of water just fine. I'm guessing this was a totally passive aggressive way to handle my tongue-tie with that fucking rice crispy treat last week.

I inwardly roll my eyes when people are obviously afraid of dogs ( exaggerated avoidance of a dog on a leash, etc). I'm especially annoyed when kids are scared and it's clear the parents have shown or encouraged their fear.

We have so many kids like that at our apartment. Bigger dogs that are bigger than the kids, I can understand that, but dude, our dogs are 10lbs and 20lbs. They couldn't hurt someone if they tried.

James is weird and is only afraid of little dogs. I think because in general they are more jumpy and the sudden movement is what scares him.

Just explaining why I think H doesn't like to go away for a weekend if he thinks something--anything-- could go wrong. It was a personal detail that I don't think he would've liked me to have shared, so I tried editing. It came up as just 'bump', which wasn't what intended. Not sure why it did that.

Holly, being an alcoholic isn't something to be ashamed of. If he's six weeks sober he should fly that sobriety flag with pride. Good for him. Don't feel guilty for doing what you had to do to encourage him to stop drinking. Everyone handles those situations differently and you yourself probably felt backed into a wall. Hopefully his therapy helps him realize he has an actual problem and he wants to continue to help himself for himself and not for others. Otherwise, it's likely only going to be a short term fix. Good for him for the six weeks he's got under his belt!! Every day is a milestone!

My FFFC: I love candy corn. However, it never occurred to me to stock up on sales the day after Halloween until reading the posts on TB about them. I was late for work this morning because I had to stop and help myself to them at the grocery store. I also helped myself to a couple other bags of $1 candy.

@tonir319 I don't remember what thread it was, but I wanted to tell you that when someone in your office thinks you don't work as hard as them because you work different hours (but a similar amt of hrs), send them emails at the edge of your time. If you work 6-6 and they work 9-9, send them shit at 6a. If it's the reverse, send them shit at 9p. It gives them some perspective and has always worked for me. In fact, if I'm working a solid 8p-3am block of overtime, I'll cc a couple people so they don't roll their eyes when I waltz in at *gasp* 9:05 the next morning. I don't do this on the regular, but occasionally I will include an asshole an a relevant email so he can suck on it.

I don't do this on the regular, but occasionally I will include an asshole an a relevant email so he can suck on it.

Oh it's not that they don't know I'm there. They do. It's just that working late is more important than being in early when no one is around. It's a face time thing.

@staciep76 W was playing with a wrapped one and I asked her for it, turned and ate it real quick, and gave her back the empty wrapper. I found her in the corner licking it 5 min later. Haha

FFFC: I peel Hebrew National Hotdogs and wrap them in crescents for Nancy. Other than BBQ ribs, it's the only meat she'll eat. Everything else meat she throws on the floor.
I need to come up with more protein things to make other than edamame or peanut butter.

Does she eat cheese?

She's such a food snob.

She eats shredded cheese, but won't really eat whole cheese. She'll take a piece of cheese and put it in her mouth, chew it for a second and spit it out.

The last time DH's car registration came due, I misunderstood it and threw out the notice, and a month later he got pulled over and the car got towed. He blamed it on the fact that "the registry doesn't send out notices anymore" and I didn't say anything. That was two years ago. It just came due again, and I meant to pay it and totally forgot. He found out the registration was expired when he went to get it inspected. I feel awful, but he totally blames the registry again.

In TX the registration sticker is on the front windshield so it is easy to glance at the sticker and see the date. In TN, it is on the plates and I never look at my plates. I am positive my registration will expire without my knowledge. I also don't read my mail so hopefully DH will catch it.

I may or may not be hungover. Also no coffee

Why the heck don't you have coffee? Recipe for disaster.
Yep, woke up late. I may need to mosey on over to Starbucks, but I never get it so I don't know what is good. All I know is PSL and I am pumpkined out. Any suggestions? I prefer mine blonde and sweet.

Peppermint Mocha is released today!

That is my absolute favorite combination!!!!! The closest SB to me is 1 hour North. Not.going.to.happen ugh! On a side note anyone remember the Hershey's Cookies & Mint candy bar? What the F happened to those? They were delish. Now all they have is the stupid Cookies & Cream, blah to white chocolate!
ETA: Spelling

Please don't let me ever hear you say that again!

On the other hand, yes, I miss the Hershey's Cookies and Mint. Mint chocolate is my favorite!!

Want a personalized experience?
