Nice work @monkeybabe! While I'm not a professional, I do a decent job with creative cakes. Others have asked me to make cakes and it stressed me out. It's way more enjoyable to just make them for my kids. I can't imagine my anxiety level if money was exchanged.
On the dream topic, tornadoes have been my theme for 2 nights so far. I'm always outside at dusk watching multiple funnels form before my eyes. They are small, but move quickly. I'm frantically running around, in and out of houses. Then I wake up and almost jump out of bed to get to cover. wtf
Well now I feel bad because I'm pretty sure DH fell asleep putting DD1 to sleep. He asked if I wanted to do the bedtime routine. I said I would fall asleep if I had to lay down with her too (right after putting DD2 down). I don't feel bad enough to go check though (at least not yet) because I don't want to share this delicious coffee ice cream I'm devouring
Ugh. My kid is in his crib yelling away. I gave him some motrin bc he's got the classic rosy teething cheeks going on and has had his fingers in his mouth along with a shit ton of drool. Poor kid. Fuck teething!
And I still need to shower. I dont really want to get off the couch though. Meh.
I'm so proud of myself I actually did my full 35 min power yoga class. I need to get back on that bandwagon and stay there. I am also sticking with my no booze resolution for tonight.
I swear if DD doesn't stop bothering me tonight, I'm going to lock her out of the house. She couldn't find her soccer spandex. She begged me to paint her nails with the nike swoosh. And I just finished helping her play truth or dare with her soccer team through IG or SC or whatever. She kept picking dare and I had to take pictures while she did dumb stuff. I normally wouldn't mind, but I really need some quiet time.
I'm officially done with all the big housework for the week. Now I can sit on my ass until next weekend and still feel accomplished. Buffalo chicken mac&cheese casserole is in the oven and I'm drinking tea because I want to remember what I ate in the morning.
I told Cute Dad about the dream, but left out the ex part. That would be a little creepy.
"I dreamt about your ex-wife whom I've never met acting like a psycho because deep within my subconscious I am insecure and worried about having to deal with her one day because you have children together."
That's a good way to keep a young relationship interesting, yeah?
Once I had a dream that DH's ex was my new RE. She came into the room with a huge pregnant belly and twins in a stroller. Every time I looked at her she had more babies and I could hear DH's voice asking WTF was wrong with me. I felt insecure about that for weeks.
I told DH about it. He said that she might be able to have a million babies but I don't do meth and I'm better in bed so I win. He's a pretty terrific guy.
I just read the ISIS thread and it makes me glad to be an Atheist. There's never any question of being an Atheist in all caps, or just being a fakeist.
I think it's impossible for me to get drunk anymore @shinyredsmartazz. I get sleepy so easily. Onr glass of scotch and I'm ready for a nap. Sorry you can't get your buzz on.

So you're saying you're an ATHEIST atheist @Monkeybabe?

All aboard the "What do you believe?! Nothing!" train!
I know there are asshole Atheists out there, and plenty of them, but they just don't pop on parenting forums like crazy Christians do.

"What are we ??" "ATHEISTS!! "What do we believe?" "NOTHING!!" "Goooooooooo atheists!!!"
Yay! It's finally quiet in my house. DD never stays up this late on a school night. It was my lucky day, I suppose.
I basically never slept in high school. Probably drove my mom nuts.
I'm going with yes on that one;) I wouldn't have minded most other nights. I'm just drained. She definitely likes her sleep and sports after a school day wipes her out. Sometimes we bribe her to stay up with us on the weekend. 10pm bedtime on a Friday night? Really? Quit being so old, DD!
Can @jesuisfatiguee give me an update on what's going on with Cute Dad por favor? Since I've missed the last couple drinking threads I feel I may have missed some important information. I could read the drinking threads but lazyyyyyyyyy
@justAphase - he wants me to meet his parents, and he called me his girlfrand That's the gist of it. He's been all super sweet and romantic and shit lately. It's fun.
Re: Can we start the drinking thread at 2?
I can't get the ticker to work, but I have two sons:

That sounds like a solid plan. It's what I'd do.
After reading all of that, I agree that it really was the most appropriate response and completely necessary at that point.
I have some mozzarella footballs leftover from the game today. I'm not even going to heat them up.
