Anyone need it?

I've had a rough couple of weeks, and I'm feeling pretty bitter and jaded. I hate feeling this way.

I needed this earlier this week but now I can't remember what I was going to say.

Hope life gets better for you Bananna.

When is Kate Gosslin's 15 minutes of fame up?  The Bachelor TV show people are considering her for it.  That is one show I will not be watching.

We've been getting free lunch at work the last 2 weeks.  Most of it is meat and bread.  Where is my veggies?  I've also probably eaten my weight in cookies the last 2 weeks.  They have been so darn good.  Today I am not having any.

I just inhaled some Hunan Express Kung Pao Chicken.  I feel like I'm going to throw up.  Why I can't just stop when I feel like I'm getting full, I don't know.  It just tastes sooo good.

I want to punch the girl pretending to be a guy with a fake wife who went on a yelling rant in the parking lot saying that it was all racial after I called the police who backed into me as I was driving through a parking lot for lying to their insurance company saying that I rear-ended her/him.

He/she is holding me up on getting my car repaired... WHICH is undriveable by the way... AND I'm paying for a rental car out of my own pocket. 

Seriously... I want to punch IT in the face.

I don't like giant cascading bouquets. If I can't see your dress, your bouquet is too darn big. That's just my gripe because I love seeing the dress.

If your dress is ugly, you're supposed to hide it with flowers and pretend it's 1985.

I hate chair sashes.  I don't know why.  Just the sight of them makes me crazy.  Nothing screams "We're having a wedding in here!!" like chair sashes.

I'm annoyed because our internet is out.  I hate AT&T I swear we just have problems with them over and over again.  Plus, they can't come out until Monday so we don't have internet all weekend.  And I get pissed when they say they will be there sometime between 12-4.  Why can't they just give me an exact time?  Would that really be that hard?!

HA..... I didn't want to throw the 1985 comment out there in case anyone was using a cascading bouquet... but I was thinking it.  Awesome.  :)

I think FI might have mono, but he doesn't want to go BACK to the doctor to find out

Some days I wish we had just eloped.  I wish we had eloped, taken the money that our parents would have given us and gone on a huge trip to Europe.

Sometimes my grandmother drives me insane.  I was originally planning on going to my dad's this weekend, you know, since it's Father's Day and all? 

Well, she found that out from my mom and then called me the next day and left a voicemail that went like this: "Hi Stephanie.  I just wanted to call and let you know we'll miss you this weekend.  I know it's Father's Day and all, and you're going to see your dad, but we'll just miss you and David so much.  But I guess we'll see each other at Christmas, right?  Because you always go see your dad on Thanksgiving too.  Okay, well, we'll miss you.  Love you." 

You would think I never see her or call her.  I've probably seen and talked to her about 8 times in the last 2 months.  But she also hates my dad (parents are divorced) and she literally insults him at every chance she gets so I wasn't surprised.

I'm so ready for this day to be over with.  I'm leaving an hour early and I'm going back to Becky today to pick up my dress.  There were very minimal changes that need to be made and she told me yesterday she would make all the changes that night while watching Gunsmoke with her husband.  She is so super sweet!

I've thought of this too, but then I figure that my parents would've just thought "Sweet, less money for us to spend' and bought us a dining table or something. I don't think we would've gotten the cost of the wedding handed over to us in its place.

Okay, this is a WWYD question.  David and I bought our house back in September and my dad told us that he wanted to buy us a housewarming present whenever we got settled and figured out what we wanted. 

Well, I talked to him the other night and he brought it up again, asking what we wanted.  I'm not sure what to say.  I know he wants to get us something, but I have no idea how much money he wants to spend.  So obviously I don't want to tell him something and then offend him because it's too expensive. 

There are a few things we want (he asked if we had a grill yet), but we have something very particular in mind, and again, I wouldn't want to tell him to buy this brand, this model #, from this store.  Any ideas?

BanannaP

Maybe if what you want is too expensive, he could contribute and you guys could cover the rest?

cherrrylll

I'd have your husband just ask how much he wants to spend. Since they're family, it shouldn't be offensive.

One more--

There was a post earlier this week where I tried to be nice, but what I really wanted to say was : "You sound about 18 years old and not mature enough to deal with life. Grow up."

Buttercup509

Maybe you could go shopping together?

cfibelkorn

WOW...that was confusing!! Ok I just (attempted to) read the post buttercup linked and now I know what ya'll mean! hahaha

Im not even sure if that was a real post or some 12 yr old that is bored...very strange

Terriniski

Is that the one we were all so confused about?  If so, I had the same thought.  I hate jumping to conclusions about people I don't even know, but as far as I'm concerned, if you're posting in a public forum, you should make sure what you post makes sense (and uses correct spelling and adheres to basic grammar rules for informal conversation).  I won't tell you how long it takes me to post things here and elsewhere, but I hope that extra time on my part keeps me from being perceived as an idiot.
