Man, Hillary KILLED it during the second half of last night's debate. Which is arguably more important. Finish STRONG HIL!

How was your Monday? What is on the agenda for Tuesday?
Yesterday afternoon I got an itch to check the IRS withholding calculator to make sure we've paid in enough taxes so far this year since we didn't pay enough in 2015 and got hit with a massive tax bill. We didn't do anything wrong, it's just that our employers didn't withhold enough because jointly we're in a much higher tax bracker than we are when you look at us by ourselves. It kind of sucked. ANYWAY, now I found out we'll owe $3600 this year if we don't change something now. Soooo I have to withhold an extra $600 from each of my paychecks for the remainder of the year.

It really really blows. I feel like I'm working for free and this really cuts into our savings goals.
Last night H and I watched the debate. I think Hillary did a really good job and she came across as a likable person I think...which tends to be tough for her sometimes. I really hope this swings the polls significantly in her favor because I don't even know what I'd do with a Donald Trump presidency.
Re: TUESDAY!
Last night I wanted to watch the debate, however FI was watching football and I didn't feel well so I went to bed early. I had a cold last week and it just seems to be lingering and I can't kick it. I don't think it helps that it's cold and rainy.
This morning I couldn't seem to get out of my own way so I was running a little late to work. They don't mind at all, I just felt bad.
Nothing on the agenda today. I heard from another league yesterday that our competition list came out for cheer so I have been creeping on other teams to see what our competition looks like. I also want to start reaching out to vendors for information so I might do that too today. I'm alone in the office, so I will have time to do those things.
BTW - your photos of Callie from her birthday party - SWOON!
@LizzyTish88 I hope you feel better! I agree, this weather isn't making me feel 100% either. BLAH!
Not too too much to report here. Had the apartment to myself this weekend which was nice. Crindy got spayed yesterday! Poor thing had cysts on her ovaries and uterus from never being spayed. I think after she recovers she's going to a much happier, more comfortable cat. She would NOT sit still and rest afterwards though! She was still fuzzy from the anesthesia and would not stop bombing around our bathroom at 100mph. She kept falling over and listing to the side, she looked like a drunk kitty!
Hope everyone's doing well! Sorry I can't come play daily
@labro – I don’t think Hillary had too many zingers, but that gif was my favorite, for sure. Trump just came off as a guy who’s willing to pull any strings to get his way. Could he make it any more obvious that his tax cuts for corporations will be helping basically just himself? I’m SO SORRY that not enough taxes were being taken out from you and your husband again. And then fucking Trump doesn’t even pay taxes. Things are…….. pretty fucked.
@PamBeesly524 – Cats on drugs are hilarious. Psychotic, but hilarious.

I drank so much wine last night during the debate, and then I passed out. I'm so tired today. But really, I mostly just wish I were still drinking.
I'm hitting up a German restaurant for happy hour later, and told all my friends that I hoped they would watch so we could rant about the debate later.
@labro - Was it this one?
"As soon as he travels to 112 countries and negotiates a peace deal, a cease fire… Or even spends 11 hours testifying in front of a congressional committee, he can talk to me about stamina.”
Because I thought that was fabulous.
I know, I'm unfortunately kind of a picky eater. I've gotten a LOT better over the years (when I was little I would literally only eat hot dogs and chicken nuggets), but there's still some stuff that I can't wrap my head around. It's so annoying - I WANT TO LIKE ALL THE FOOD!
@PamBeesly524 - I have spent the entire day so far dreaming about an enormous stein of beer, and some sausages, pretzels, and CHEESE! You get it........
Do you like spaetzle?
And dumplings? Who doesn't like potatoes?
Schnitzel = delicious tender fried pork chops! Even better with a little squirt of lemon or some brown gravy and mushrooms!
I mean, so not everyone is a big fan of red cabbage...but it's cooked in vinegar and so so yummy. But I won't judge for that.
And currywurst!!!!!!! Do you like curry? Do you like bratwurst? BahBAHM! Deliciousness all in one!
Noodles yes, gravy no
Dumplings yes!
I don't really eat pork (just bacon), so no Schnitzel
definitely no red cabbage!
No curry. Bratwurst is meh.
I'M SO SORRY
Also Black Forest Cake is German.
Have you ever heard of kasespatzle?
It's basically German mac n cheese. With fried onions.
The board is here this week, so it is chaos. I have a dress appointment tonight to get my dress altered. That's all my excitement, oh and this cuteness overload:
@speakeasy14 - E-dizzle is the cutest, for shizzle!
And it's pretty unfair of @labro to talk about all the delicious food and put up all those food pictures when I still have a few hours to go!
