First World Problems

Re: First World Problems

  • My first ipsy bag came in today and the blush that came with it is beautiful but I think it's wayyyy to bright for my coloring. 

    Good note: The perfume sampler is too legit to quit and I think I am going to buy this perfume.

  • Um holy shit basal thermometers can be expensive. And forget fertility monitors. 

    I see the wedding tax doesn't stop with weddings. It extends to "I want to get pregnant" tax.

  • I like to play Trivia Crack and Evil Apples on my iPad, but those games don't rotate to landscape, so then I have to rotate my iPad to play them. So annoying. Especially if I want to switch back and forth between games and doing something else.

  • That's the one I finally found and am going with. I was just looking at reviews and the only ones that have particularly good ones are $50+. Ah no. Not spending that on a damn thermometer.

    I need to buy a new one, too. Because, you know, we are going to have to start again (IN THREE MONTHS) and I find the variation in prices to be absurd. I'm going to get one of these as well :)

    I don't know if mine is a FWP but I am annoyed and need to vent.

    I just got 4 warnings on the bump for asking a 15 year old how she was going to take her future LO to the doctor when she admitted to not having any access to transportation. Apparently I am "inhibiting her enjoyment of the site." Ugh, no wonder TB is a ghost town.

  • I was upgraded on my flight yesterday after I had sat in my seat in coach.  I left an Economy Comfort aisle seat with no one else in my row for a First Class seat next to a fairly annoying business child who wanted to chat for the whole flight.  Should have stayed in coach!  I texted FI that my upgrade was technically a downgrade and he replied with "FWP".  

    THEN, and I rarely do this, I decided to get a smart cart ($6) for my bags b/c my arms hurt and my feet in high heels hurt but a Red Cap was very insistent on helping me so I agreed.  Then I realized I had only $3 to tip him so I had to go to an ATM to get more cash and pay a $3 ATM fee.  I should have stuck to the $6 smart cart, instead I wound up spending $13 to have someone push my bags on a cart :( 

    FWP.

    I would have just tipped him the $3.

    Don't get me wrong, I normally tip more, but if I didn't have the cash at the time I'm not going to get more just to tip.

    Maybe I'm just a bitch like that?






    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.

    I feel like...that is a legitimate question to ask? Who the hell is in charge over there anyway?

    My FWP is that I really need to do laundry...but I don't WANNA.

    Do NOT TRY TO USE LOGIC. SHE IS TRYING TO ENJOY HER TEEN PREGNANCY WITHOUT HAVING TO WORRY ABOUT LOGISTICAL ISSUES.

    Like come on Kat, like you've seen Teen Mom, everything totes works out fine. The TV crew will show up and it'll be like totally awesome.

    What was a thinking?!?! She is totes preggly!!! Squee.

    Seriously though, this posters is stressing me out. She is 15, still smoking "all the time," no savings, no job, no form of transportation and cant figure out what her exact due date is. But I am the big meanie face for asking questions like, are you still in school? and what will you do for money?

    I need to give up on TB. But its hard because H and I are going to start trying for #2 in May.

  • My entire company (all 5 of us!) are together for the rest of the week. This means that I need to go into the office. And wear pants. I'm not thrilled about this.

    Also, I've got everyone lined up for a "party" this afternoon (doing manual computer work that sucks). I brought 2 bottles of wine and a pile of junk food (lots of candy and Garrett's popcorn). I am now staring at the glorious caramel and cheese popcorn and M & Ms but can't break into them until 3. It's torture.

    I'm afraid to put the bottle of white wine in the fridge for fear of it getting served (shared work space where lots of events are hosted daily) so we're going to get stuck using ice cubes. I also forgot beer for the one non-wine drinker.

    My life is hard.

    Neither was I. I really only stick to the baby names, but I feel like I'd like the Month Boards once it happens, (Which has sadly, gotten pushed back. We're not going to start trying until next summer now. I'm a little bummed)


    Trying to get pregnant/Trying to get knocked up moves WAY too fast for me to even think about participating, but I did get a lot of info from them.

    oh, this is making me punchy. 15 year olds who smoke and can't take care of themselves get babies and I get, what? Emergency surgery on an Ectopic Pregnancy on my 32nd birthday. With my loving husband who drives me to the hospital in our car that we can afford.

    (not bitter at all)
    I seriously cannot imagine what it feels to see people who don't give a shit about their babies/future babies after what you've been through. It already makes me incredibly mad when people don't take care of their kids.

    It really makes me angry. That, fake pregnancy announcements on FB. My bday (and surgery) was March 31, so imagine all the idiot April Fools jokes on FB the next day. I lectured a girl from college who I am only marginally friends with about how insensitive hers was. And she lectured me back about needing to learn how to "channel my anger"
