So it's almost 10 pm on a Friday night and SO gets a text message from one of his co-irkers proclaiming "God's NOT dead!!"

*blink, blink* What in the holy hell?!?

In a moment of genius he replies back with "That's nice, have you told him that yet?"

isn't that the name of a movie or something that just came out?

Not a clue..

It is a movie

This may be absolutely nothing, but I just received a phone call from a number in New Orleans. I do have an uncle that travels back and forth to there for work so I went ahead and answered it. It was some foreign man that I could not understand for the life of me! So I hung up. A few minutes later, I got a text message from that number saying:

Hello this is the laundromat. Your clothes are ready to be picked up.

All this after 9PM. Does this sound suspicious to anyone? Or am I just being crazy paranoid? I live about 6 1/2 hours away from New Orleans.

I would totally troll them back. Have you seen the long text convo with the guy responding to one of those "You just won a prize" texts? He went ON AND ON acting like he thought the person who sent it was a childhood friend and telling him how his life had fallen apart, until the person finally caved and told him to shut up.

Ugh. DH and I both got the same text and it was a massive group text, so we'd also get all the responses from people we don't know. Super annoying. Yeah, I know God's not dead. I'm a believer and all (I don't like saying Christian because of the reputation for intolerance and close-minded ness Christians have pretty rightfully earned), but I hate those chain type of communications. I used to be one of those who wanted to always be soooo public and evangelical about religion and whatnot, but now I'm more of a privately spiritual person and I'm really uncomfortable talking to anyone I'm not super close with about my beliefs.

ETA: I complained a lot..I decided to take back my failed glucose test rant etc. I'd rather be positive so I will just say-- is it July yet?

mrscurlygurl · April 2014

I was feeling like I'd gotten suckered today when I got an oil change because I actually purchased the new air filter they pushed on me. My dad had told me that they always try to sell you one but you don't need it...they're supposed to be dirty since they're in your engine...yada yada. We're leaving on a major road trip next week though, so I thought...wth, why not. Just googled and got many hits that a clean air filter can actually improve gas mileage. So, woot...not feeling so suckered now

purpleXdandelion · April 2014

I am getting a Brazilian wax next Saturday and I've been letting it grow out so there's actually hair to wax (last time I shaved was like 10 days ago). This is so uncomfortable and it's driving me bonkers! I will gladly welcome the pain of the hair getting ripped out vs this constant discomfort from my stubble. Just make it go awayyyyy. ~X(

Had to see a different doctor because mine was outta town. She told me I gained to much weight.

15lbs at 25 weeks 4 days and I had a completely full bladder because I got weighed before my a/s. Keep in mind I had a perfectly healthy bmi before conception.

She talked about my weight for at least 5 min. Women in Wisconsin are generally overweight, almost all women I take care of are overweight. Blah Blah Blah

Bitch almost got cut!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am was 138lbs 5' 7" in October. Major eye rolls.

I hate when it seems like doctors harp on something when they don't know your history. Also, she's wrong. Bitch.

I roll my eyes at a lot of those "Things people never told you about pregnancy" blog posts .... but I finally found a symptom that made me WTF.

Vulvar Varicosities.

The worst part, tomorrow is H's birthday and sex is obligatory. FML.

helloblueeyes · April 2014

I very clearly woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

I want to kill everyone in my house. The pregnancy rage is strong today.

It's a really good thing i planned on going out and running some errands all by myself.

Ha, if your doctor thinks that women in WI are generally overweight, she should go practice in NW Louisiana for awhile or other areas where people drink sweet tea like water and serve their veggies in bacon grease. Your doctor is a bitch.

15 lbs is too much?! Jeez I must be a super fatty at somewhere between 25 and 30 lbs! My MW hasn't said a word to me about it. I know it's not too much because it's all belly, no extra fat in my face or arms and barely any in the hips. Seriously, everyone is different, a doc should know there is no magic number for weight gain as long as you are eating healthy!

It's my birthday and SO's been bugging me all week about figuring out what I to do.. so far all I can come up with is grabbing a pizza and jumping him for some quality birthday sex.

How did pregnancy manage to turn me into a 16 year old boy?

I'm a little jealous. I'd kill for a little sex drive.

My cousin was telling me that when her child was born they had told everyone what they were going to name the baby. Her MIL did not like the name so she went behind my cousin's back and told everyone attending the shower that they were going with a different name and to EMBROIDER it into whatever they got for her.

So she got to her baby shower and she received all kinds of things with the name David on them... which is not what they were going to be naming their baby. It's what the MIL wanted.

Every time I think maybe my MIL has done something even slightly annoying I remember this story and I feel better.

We still haven't named this baby. Part of me doesn't care, we still have 16 weeks. The organized planner in me wants to settle already. It's like having dirty laundry out on the floor that I haven't picked up in 24 weeks. :-?

MonkeyJD · April 2014

Just one day after posting that we may never name this kid I think we've come to a decision! Cue happy dance... ETA: gif fail. I suck at those.

Wow. I'd have been in an embroidery place the next day getting all of the embroidery taken off and the correct name put on. I don't even care how much it would cost to do it, just for the satisfaction of showing the MIL the fixed ones!

I probably would have been a major bitch & called her out in front of everyone.

She'd have had to go. And by go I mean I'd have shipped her ass to china or something. Fuck that.

I had my first sniss today. Wasn't as liberating as I thought it might be. Mostly just...damp.

TugboatSheila · April 2014

@shanicanicole- We're CDing too! I am so excited, I've started my stash and I can't wait to put them on his little tushy.

Most of the time you can't take the embroidery out without ruining the entire garment.

TallMomma29 · April 2014

DH just texted me from out at a restaurant, where he saw a young tall girl out with a guy and he said "I just saw our future daughter. All I can think is why is Caroline out with that guy?! She could do so much better than him." (Caroline is LO's name). This is simultaneously cute and I'm a little worried for Caroline. Good luck ever dating with a military father, LO ;-)

I finally told my husband I wanted to cloth diaper. He said yes with no fuss lmao. So surprising. He did say we'd have to use a diaper service though lol

I'm not trying to say there is anything wrong with using a service, but what is his reasoning? It's really not that difficult to do them yourself
