I farted in my sleep last night. It smelled so bad, I noticed it in my dream. Then even my dreaming self couldn't handle it and I woke up gagging. Good thing DH slept on the couch last night.
From time to time I check my registry due to items always going out of stock. I saw that a shirt of mine was on sale for dirt cheap. The good girl that I am thought, "Don't buy it, someone else will and they will have scored a good deal. Don't buy something off my own list right now." The next day? Out of stock, and now I'm pissed I didn't buy it and pissed no one else saw the awesome price it went down to. I really should have bought it damn it!

I farted in my sleep last night. It smelled so bad, I noticed it in my dream. Then even my dreaming self couldn't handle it and I woke up gagging. Good thing DH slept on the couch last night.
I did that last week only I didn't realize I was the one who did it, it also woke my husband up and I spent 5 minutes berating him for "being disgusting" and "stinking up the whole f'ing room" when it was me all along. I tried to kick him out of bed over it and everything. I vaguely remember it... Thankfully he has a good sense of humor.
I took Beb to the park this week and starting having raging allergies but only for a minute. We still had to leave early because I had to change my undies. And pants.
I'm putting my toddler (16.5 months) in a two half days a week "moms day out" program this summer. I've only worked part time since she was born so she's never had to go to daycare, but I'm worried about my sanity home alone with her and a new baby all summer. We've heard great things about the center and loved it when we toured yesterday. I know she will love the interaction with other kids, but I still feel super guilty.
I'm convinced the universe has a Vendetta against me and my family. I've basically had my fill of things going wrong and people not doing their jobs properly and causing us problems because of it. I seem to spend most of my time in my personal and work lives chasing people up for doing things badly or not doing them at all. We always get "forgotten" or "overlooked". We're always the ones who get the redundancy notice or the bad diagnosis. I honestly don't think I can take much more of it and the next person to tell me "oh things will get better!" is getting throat punched.

I'm still kicking myself for not buying the three adorable dragon themed sets on my registry before they were discontinued and sold out. Now all that's left of the dragon themed cuteness are socks. And socks, while cute, aren't exactly high on my must have list

Don't feel guilty - odds are she will love it! We are keeping DS in his daycare 2 days a week this summer while I am on maternity leave. No guilt. He will love the interaction with his friends and teachers, and I will get a break from having a toddler and newborn at home.
Healthy meals for my DS have gone down the drain lately. I used to be on top of this. Not anymore. Now DH is doing a lot of his meals which usually means spaghetti - o's.
I truly don't understand how anyone is still working out at this stage of pregnancy. More power to them, but even walking is painful for me and I was working out regularly before the pregnancy. Maybe having an 18 month old plays into it, too...

I'm also keeping DD in daycare. Yes, she will stay home with me some days, but I think the structure will be good for her.
Plus, I need naps when LO is still up at crazy night hours.

I'm there too. Last night's dinner: pizza, lunch: kraft mac and cheese. I won't say I don't try (there are usually vegetables offered) but I can't fight any more. Eating=sleeping at night for him and sleeping at night is important for everyone in our house.
1) I can't remember the last time I plucked my eyebrows or bleached my upper lip. I'm not kidding, I'm like "before Xmas? After Xmas?". The werewolf look is in.
2) I have so much CM lately that I'm sure I'm turning into a fucking snail.
Oh yeah, sorry - TMI.

I got home yesterday after a long workday, a long exam, and really really bad traffic (thanks, Sea World!). I was exhausted, frustrated, and stressed. My poor dog had been kenneled for much of the day, and I really should have taken him for a long walk. Instead, I took him out to pee and poop. When whined because he clearly had tons of energy, I gave him a bone filled with peanut butter as a distraction. I am usually really good about making sure he gets enough exercise, and he usually never spends that long in the kennel, but yesterday mommy was TIRED. I felt like a terrible dog mommy: No exercise for you dude, have some peanut butter. As atonement I am taking him for a long trip to the dog park today.
We went on our hospital tour the other night and there was another couple there younger than us, the girl looked like she was still in high school. I overheard the dad saying how hard his day was working at burger king and complaining about being there. Later in the tour he asked the guide if it would be okay to bring his TV and Xbox to set up in the delivery room so he doesn't get bored.
...seriously?
my confession is that by seeing them I totally got a burst of confidence that maybe I'm not as unprepared as I thought I was and I can handle this baby thing.
This isn't meant to be a "what are you ladies complaining about" type of thing, but lately I feel like the more pregnant I get, the better my body is getting at it. I felt pretty crappy all the way through my 2nd trimester. Mostly is was constipation and round ligament pain issues. And I was so tired all the time; I wanted to hibernate. I kind of felt ripped off because the 2nd tri is supposed to be the easy, energy filled period, but I felt like crap.
Since hitting my third trimester I keep waiting for the big loss of energy and aches and pains, but if anything I am feeling stronger and just overall better. I've been able to go to more yoga and I've been getting busier and busier getting prepped for baby and still feel pretty good.
I'm sure I'll be singing a different tune in a few weeks, but I just think it's weird. I mean it kind of sucks that now that I have huge belly and can't bend over I get my energy back. Maybe it's just my body waking up for Spring, despite my growing belly.
On a roll today....ds1 is sick and while I feel bad for him I am more excited that it gives me an excuse to put movies on for him and lounge around all day.
I think it's a Murphy's law that the bigger the belly gets, the more often things get dropped.
Mine is that I feel like the board is really boring lately, but I have nothing to contribute.
I put bumpers in my crib 'cause they are cute! People who collect welfare are lazy! I spank my six month year old! I totes judge women who gain too much weight during pregnancy because I am the crossfit queen!
I kid, I kid. But seriously, where are the crazies? I've got an awful lot of un-popped popcorn in my cabinet.
ooooo I have a lame food one: I don't like cupcakes. Icing is gross and cupcakes can suck it. PIE FOR EVA! Seriously, I wish I had key lime pie at my wedding instead of cake. Pie is the shit.
I teach high school math. It's the end of the quarter and grades are due. I miss the days when I would take all this crap home and set up shop at the dining room table and down a bottle of wine while I finish all my grading.
So my confession (which is something I just realized) is that before I was pregnant, I almost never graded tests sober. I wonder how many times I've made mistakes with kids grades and they never noticed....
I really want to cheat and have a root bear float. I bought the no sugar added vanilla, and diet barq's root bear which were both recommended by a friend with diabetes. My numbers were through the roof after having some, so I know it's bad but I REALLY REALLY want one!!!!

Oh wait, now I have a legitimate FFFC. I am totally sick of people comparing the George Zimmerman trial to the Michael Dunn trial. Different events, locations, etc, different trials. Not the same. I'm tired of seeing it all over local news when the Marissa Alexander case barely gets a 30 second snippet.
I really don't want my husbands friend from college to come visit this weekend ! He facebooked me last night and said he may not make it because he got arrested on Monday... WTF? He still has not grown up from his college days . I brought this up to DH and his response was not everyone lives the same way we do. I thought this friend was trying to clean up his act since he moved back to his home town and is trying to take over his family Buissness. I guess that is not the case and I am stressing about him coming to visit us.

Do you live in FL? I do and am so SICK of hearing about Zimmerman. I think it's so disrespectful that he has this "celebrity" status. Whether or not you wanted to, you freaking killed a human being. Maybe you should be seeing a therapist instead of signing autographs!

@ErikaLynn75 The only way I made it through TAing in grad school was cracking open a bottle of wine and finishing most of said bottle while grading. No judgement from this lady.
@ALE515 I totally agree, it is disgusting how he is being regarded as a celebrity. Why can't he just pull a Casey Anthony and GTFO and disappear. I'm tired of hearing about him.

Yup. I live in Orlando, home of Casey Anthony and neighbor to Sanford's George Zimmerman. I'm totally disgusted that Zimmerman is signing autographs, bleh.
Here's one that will get some flamies: I have no interest in seeing "real" women or men as print or runway models. It's the same reason I go to Yankee Stadium to watch baseball and not the local park district games. I'm fully aware that both groups of people have genetics I could never hope to emulate and strict lifestyles that I have no desire to attempt to emulate. But if I wanted to see people with ordinary bodies in clothes, I wouldn't have to buy the magazines, I could just walk down any street.
Seriously, just had a huge student brawl at school. It started with girls again (they are the worst when it comes to fighting!) then it spread to guys and girls. Really?? It's Friday and they only had an hour to go!! We had to call the paddy wagon there was such chaos and so many involved!! There are not enough counseling skills in the world to help some of these kids!!! I tried not to get in the middle because it's pretty scary, but I was trying to help get kids back into their classrooms (they all run out to see what is going on.) It's just total craziness! Now the last period of the day is nuts because they are all talking about it. And it's supposed to go on after school. I am going to have to start wearing body armor to school!! For those of your talking about wine, tonight would have been a GREAT night for me to have a bottle!!!

I'm a couple of towns over from Sanford! I was wondering if other people who didn't live here was still hearing about those jerks! I hate that these trials are making us look bad.

@ErikaLynn75, I think we just became best friends. I used to grade essays while enjoying some wine.
Until today I couldn't put my finger on why grading has been so unbearable for me this year. But that's the key. Need wine. I shall leave that in my notes for the sub who takes over for me. :-)

I really want to block any of my "friends" on FB who only post complaints, like about the weather, Monday morning, etc, political rants or details about their kid's stomach bug. It's one thing to say my kid is sick, it's another to say my kid puked 9 times last night. Why do I need to have that visual in my head??
