NWR: I'm such a rebel.

JCbride2015

I have mentioned before that my childhood BFF has been pretending I don't exist for about a year.  There is no discernible reason why, at least to me.

Just commented something totally nice and innocuous on her Facebook status.  I'm now wondering whether she will acknowledge my existence.

I'm feeling so rebellious today lol.  I just did not like the status quo.  Anybody else having a rebellious Friday?

4 of the attorneys I work with, including the boss, are out today. There are three left including me. I should be reading depo transcripts but im having a rebellious "eff this, its Friday" session of websurfing.

Yup, I reserved my church and hall for 6/27/15.  Mom is having a fit.

Sure, I could still change my mind, but just saying it's definitely going to be 3 hrs from where mom lives was the first blow of many :-P

I rebelled against taking my walk today. Does that count?

Yes.

I am currently rebelling against exercise, too.  Huzzah!

I rebelled against my healthy lunch and ordered Chinese takeout with the other ladies in the office :-)

Kelani23 - Good for you! Stand firm!

I went to a lunch and learn presentation with a Senior VP at my company. I didn't eat the lunch they got for us. I went out and bought my own lunch. Sometimes I like walking on the wild side.

I'm in the middle of a chemo treatment now; when the nurse offered me something to drink I really, really wanted to ask for a margarita just to be a rebel...can't hurt to ask, right?

I had a margarita for lunch.

I'll dig up my old siggy just for you:

Someone should be reconciling invoices today. That someone is Knotting instead.

I have done almost nothing at work all day today. People are driving me crazy! I've totally been web surfing instead.

I don't even really regret it.

Soon, I'll be leaving to go pick up whiskey tasting tickets for my birthday tomorrow. I really wish I didn't have to come back from the bar.

I haven't walked during my lunch break all week. Plus we had pizza for lunch with the office. 

Now I'm drafting documents while watching Damages on my Kindle. 

And of course, I'm Knotting...

I had a glass of chardonnay.

Also, my boss asked me how he could help me be more efficient.  I told him to give me a raise.  He laughed.  I told him I wasn't joking.

I told my coworker to stop bitching at me

Ooooh I've missed your siggy!!!

ETA:  Wtf?  Did I forget to finish typing the rest of my first sentence?  Lawd.  Whatever, I'm leaving it at this point because I'm out of the office finally and this hellish week is OVER and deserves no more thought!

Ooooh I've missed your siggy!!! Maybe Lafayette will come back after the bar exam.  Right now, Marshall is my spirit animal.  Fi and I also joke that I am Marshall Eriksen, so it works.

I posted something about this a while back. Sometimes when people are going through really happy times in their lives, others can't deal. You are happy right now, in love, planning your amazing wedding. She might be jealous or have some other emotion and is just blocking you out. I'm sorry this is happening.  And LOL at you for trying her like that, you go girl.

@RajahBMFD Nope, she completely did not acknowledge it.  Nobody (including her) has commented on that status conversation since.

It was a conversation about whether you call pasta sauce "sauce" or "gravy."  I made some kind of contribution about sauce, then said, "I hope you are well, [Name]!"  Didn't realize that was enough to kill the entire conversation...

That's sucky. Sorry she's ignoring you like that. Been there and it sucks.

Thanks.  I would hate to think she is jealous, but maybe that's it.  We are very different places in our lives right now.  Although I have always made a conscious effort not to be That Girl Who Talks About Her Wedding All The Time.

When I was supposed to get married like 15 years ago, I had the same best friend since grade school. I asked her to be my MOH and she said yes. Then suddenly she was too busy for bridal shows, wedding gown shopping and the like. Then she like "Broke up with me". Seriously she like invited me over for dinner at her dorm and broke up with me, told me we shouldn't be friends anymore. I was stunned. Then her phone rang and she answered it and covered the mouth piece and told me I should leave. All of our friends "broke up with her" after that. No one would talk to her, they were livid. Still to this day about 15 years later it's a source of contention and we aren't even friends with her. But if someone mentions her name he get our hackles up (or whatever that saying is). She hurt me so bad and I've never forgotten it. We knew it was jealousy, she was a jealous person by nature. Ugh.

I have done something similarly rebellious. I had a junior high school friend turn into a super bridezilla. We have barely spoken since her wedding 4 years ago. I sent her a std for my wedding. Then I found out she was pregnant. I said nothing.
Months later I found out through my SIL that this friend had a baby shower that I was not invited to. I sent her a fairly expensive gift to her home. It was a kill her with kindness thing. On top of that I knew it would force her to acknowledge me with a thank you note that I did eventually get.
She declined the invitation to my wedding, which I expected. As vain as this sounds I still feel like the bigger person. She did wrong by me and I should give it up. But sometimes I cant help myself.
Thats my form of rebellion.

I'm feeling rebellious today.... so exhausted from a road trip I took Fri and Sat but they put me on the schedule today so I dragged my ass in... to find that they didn't leave me any work to do! (No one else comes in on weekends so they basically have me scanning paperwork by myself in the office). I'm so effing tired I do NOT feel like sitting here pretending to work so I stayed a couple hours but I'm totally leaving now. Eff this.
