Weekly Randoms go here...

mkemommy · March 2016

I'll join the ice cream train tonight. H wanted to go to McDonalds because he was starving and we were running errands so I asked for the only thing I could get there...soft serve ice cream without the cone (because, gluten). I asked twice for NO CONE. What do they give me? The ice cream IN A CONE IN A DISH. I made her throw it out and give me a new one (and I was watching her like a hawk to make sure she didn't just scoop the ice cream into a dish) and don't even feel bad about it despite her rolling her eyes at me. And now I'm eating strawberry ice cream to boot. No shame here.

Just found out that our air conditioner crapped out. Bye bye $4800!

Ours did too! I'm pissed, but at least it happened now and not in June with a new baby home!

Mr0616 · March 2016

Lol my H has had more of an ice cream craving this pregnancy than me. Mainly because I never buy it for him, but baby needs calcium soooo....ice cream for everyone.

he did get me a snoball (or snow cone or whatever you call it where you live) yesterday. And that was amazing.

I am supposed to be folding laundry because I've gotten way too far behind on it. Instead, I'm sitting on the bed with a basket of laundry, untocuhed, watching the bachelor and feeling my baby do a dance from the ice cream I just ate. At this rate, H may not have folded undershirts for work tomorrow. Oh well.

This is me almost exactly! Except babies are moving because of peanut M&Ms and I actually did fold some laundry.

Peanut M&Ms are THE BEST!!!

I usually like crispy the best. But the peanut ones are just calling my name lately. Plus peanuts are healthy, right?

I forgot that it's Pie day!!! I asked DH to run out and get one, but he said no. It's currently pouring rain, but I still want pie!

Anyone else get reading threads in other bmbs and want so badly to respond but chicken out bc it's "not your board"?

*waves*

Hiiiiiii from May! I've (occasionally) been lurking since y'all bombed us (which was simultaneously funny and a little frightening and also taught me a valuable life lesson about turning off signatures) because insomnia and it aids in my perpetual procrastination from Responsibility. I also stalk the March/April BMBs when I'm feeling my most miserable, because the birth announcements help me to remember that there is a really good reason why I'm feeling so sick/tired/icky/etc all the time.

Also, y'all are f****ing hilarious. Totally got me through the end of my 3hr glucose test last week, when I could no longer focus on my book and needed something else to keep me occupied.

Anyways, yes, I completely get it. I deleted this like three times because "it's not my board".

Aaaaaaaaand now I'll go back to creepily lurking and not saying anything because I've broken that unspoken and nonexistent rule about posting on other boards and I'm totally feeling embarrassed now.

---- stuck in stupid box ----

***waves back***

we're a fun group and I'm glad you find us hilarious! Feel free to add to the flavor, just as long as your bring tots!!

Do you mean theeeeeeese tots?

(Are the tots a euphemism for something else? Because I feel like they sometimes are [and I think I might know what]. But I haven't been around that long and haven't been able to bring myself to ask because, you know, lurking.)

I just cannot comisserate on the horrible baby shower thread. Showers can be exceedingly uncomfortable particularly if you're not into being the center of attention but it just doesn't sound that bad to me...idk maybe I'm an asshole? I just can't get on the "Oh I am so sorry for you" train. But I will keep my mouth shut since I have nothing nice to say.

Normally I have little interest or sympathy for anything shower-related but the post today sounded seriously awful. Having people complain about you at your own shower?? Actually hearing people tell you to hurry up with opening your gifts?? Why even go to a shower if you're gonna be an a-hole about it.

I'm also not commenting. I agree there was some crappy, crappy stuff (that MIL speech, WHAT?!!?). but there was also some "Really!?!?" stuff that I couldn't handle. So I didn't comment there and won't tear it apart here either.

You're right.

Hahahaha we did an ice cream run about a month ago, and while at the drive through, H asks what I wanted...totally said an ice cream cake. I ended up with a blizzard. I'm jealous of your cake!

Ladies, it's called swag.

PBear93 · March 2016

@mkemommy, you can order a plain sundae there. That's what I usually do (I just don't like cones or toppings)

@amberraysofdawn it started with us shutting down a ridiculous thread by changing to topic of conversation to tots and tater tot hot dish. And now we just talk about tots all the time and mention them on posts by randoms.

splsmama2016 · March 2016

I got yelled at by a skating parent today..... Again. But this time it was because I'm still teaching. Lol. This mom has been gone for a couple weeks and didn't realize that I was still teaching classes 2 days a week because none of the other coaches want to work mondays. So today, she scolded me for still being on the ice, gave me the whole "you need to focus on your child" speech, AND told me that if I'm still here in 2 weeks, she's going to have a word with my director. I stood there thinking "PLEASE DO!!" I'm just about done dealing with tiny kids on the ice. Unless its my own flesh and blood, I need a break.

But I love this mom!! She brings me See's Candy and coffee. Lol.

@shannonrnbsn Oh no I'm sorry!! Fingers crossed that maybe it's not true!

hollywoodave531 · March 2016

Sorry @shannonrnbsn I hope that's not the case. Good luck @WinniethePoohsPants and @HBamama2B! Orange is best!

MsBeachNJ · March 2016

NicknShan · March 2016

So sorry @shannonrnbsn Hope your pregnancy brain is just making results look cross eyed.

So. I watched the Bachelor last night and then fell asleep on the couch so DH wouldn't be tempted to ask me to try on the lingerie he bought me (that he doesn't know I know about).

MeganF08 · March 2016

What pregnant lady would want to put on lingerie after watching JoJo and Lauren prance around in their bikinis anyway...

I second the sentiment for @shannonrnbsn and also wish good results to @WinniethePoohsPants and I also have to say to @NicknShan that there is NO WAY I would be sporting any lingerie right now either. Curious, what did he pick out for you? Like, a teddy? (apologies if this has already been discussed. I'm not doing such a hot job keeping up with threads these days).

NicknShan · March 2016

@parsonsperson Nope - I haven't shared what he got. it was a red sexy lacy tie top thingy and barely there red lacy thong (the front looks no bigger than the back - not that I will be able to see it if I wear it) and a silky sheer short black robe. He ordered the red thing in an XXL (rather than at least looking at maternity lingerie) - which may make it even more humorous. Because although this bump may be an XXL - there is no way my bootie is.

PBear93 · March 2016

@winniethepoohspants and @hbmama2b Good luck.

@nicknshan, that sounds not so amazing. Sorry.

Oh. My. Word. That sounds awful.

Sydvicious08 · March 2016

@NicknShan it sounds horrible and hilarious at the same time. Think of it this way, he still thinks you are sexy enough to wear something like that

@shannonrnbsn I've heard the Brewers diet can help? I don't know, but I've heard good things about using it during pregnancy. Hopefully you are just reading wrong

MamaNicoleof3 · March 2016

I've been at work for 30 minutes and have.absolutely.no.motivation.to.do.ANYTHING.

Palisson · March 2016

@mkemommy G-free for life and somehow surviving pregnancy #2! I ate the galaxy's greatest g-free calamari in Whistler on vacation- 3 times! When you find something that tastes great and like it's real food- you have to dive in and invest in it!!!!!

Here in Santa Fe, NM we have a dedicated g-free bakery that makes real bread that tastes good and it's helped me to have faith. I usually don't eat g-free foods that are substitutes for pasta, bread etc because the calories are super high and they don't taste like the food they are mimicking anyway. But sometimes you can find good food.

The best news I can give you is, although the celiac runs strong with me- my partner and I made a mutt and my baby has no sign of gluten issues. It's basically as good as finding out that I don't have celiac anymore, just to know that he doesn't. It is a life worth living.

Now if only there was good strong malty stout that was magically g-free.
