And unofficial summer begins

It's the day after Memorial Day. Summer has unofficially begun.

We didn't do much for the weekend. We visited the in-laws. Oh goody. [insert sarcasm here] On the way, Micah tells me that they're also coming over on Wednesday (tomorrow). I said, why the hell are we going today? Turn the car around!

While we're there, MIL says that she's "the mother" and she outranks Micah. HAHAHAHAHA On Mars, maybe. She then called him Mean Daddy about 40 times. How my wonderful husband came out of that woman I'll never know.

I have a basement full of baby stuff that I want to get rid of. I wanted to have a yard sale but what a major PITA that would be. Someone suggested craigslist.com. I've already had several bites! Woohoo!

A few weeks ago, I applied for an Old Navy credit card. (This cannot be good - that is my most favorite store) I got my card, a card for Micah, and the other day, I got one for someone else. They better send me a coupon for reporting it.

I started a new book a while ago. It begins with a woman packing up her husband's belongings. The reader isn't sure where he is but he obviously doesn't need these things anymore. She takes everything outside and has a yard sale. Shortly after the sale ends, the husband shows up to pick up his stuff. Damn that's funny!

Here comes the sun

Today is our first sunny day in what seems like months, and the first day the forecasted temp is above 65. My daughter got to wear capris today and then wondered why everyone else, including me, wasn't wearing them. She also wanted to know why her brother wasn't wearing sandals. Ah, the mind of a 4 yr old.

My husband says I talked in my sleep last night. Supposedly I said, that's the way we did it the first time. I think he's lying. :)

My husband also told me that no matter what, the most weight you can lose is 4lbs a week. Lying again. Lies! All Lies!!!

I have to say, I'm enjoying this blog thing. It's a good way to get all of these weird, random thoughts out of my head.

And I think that's all I had today.

Laugh hard.

These walls have ears

I work in a cubicle maze and my coworkers are on a roll today.

One of them was seriously busting her husband's balls about his job, loudly, and then called her mother to brag about it. Another coworker and I throw paper clips over the walls at each other when she gets going. That cracks me up!

Then there's the drama queen. Everything that happens to her was done on purpose and everyone should shower her with sympathy. I've heard her sob story more times than I can count today.

And finally we have the wimpiest man alive. He has back problems and I get to hear him shake his huge bottle of ibuprofen several times a day. He had a fender bender last year and I heard him tell someone he was in a "very serious accident." Dude, you drove your truck to work that day!

I'm really glad I have a 2 pm meeting and go home at 3.

Didn't make it to kickboxing last night. Got to the gym though. While I was there, the belt/fanny pack that holds my CD player fell off, twice, while I was on the elliptical. Talk about feeling like a nerd. WTF

On my way to the gym last night, I saw a car that had run off the road, knocking down the lightpole. The glass and debris covered the entire roadway. The car in front of me stopped to figure out how to get by and it was a good thing I was paying attention. After I drove on, in my rearview, I saw another car stop and the car behind him had to go off to the side to prevent another accident.

Maiden voyage

Here it is, my first blog. Now, what do I say?

I've been very bored today. Not much work to be done. I did just manage to secure a twin bed for my 4yr old. She's getting a little big for her toddler bed.

It's a rainy day here in Baltimore. Traffic is going to suck. I wanted to take a 6:30 kickboxing class at the gym tonight but I think I'll be lucky to get home by then.

I'm trying to keep myself away from the chocolate in the next cubicle. I've been successful so far but as lunch gets farther and farther away, it's difficult.
