Confessions!

I think it is about time for this again, anyone?

    More than likely, I won't be very productive during the next 3 weeks at work. I'm really good at pretending though.

    1.  I started this post because I'm procrastinating a large amount of project preparation/homework.

    2.  I've become very passive aggressive at work.  If someone annoys me or doesn't say please/thank you, then I wait an hour or two before doing whatever it is that they are asking.  No one really knows what I'm doing, but it makes me feel better anyway.

    3. This girl I went to school with just got married and people are posting pictures online.   The wedding looks very pretty, but her dress is ivory and her flower girls dresses are white.    They have a photo together and it makes her dress look really, really bad. Like been in a smokers house for 10 years bad.

    I hate one of my FI's groomsmen.  Like, hate him, so much.  I can't stand that he will be standing up with us when we get married, and I would love to completely uninvite him from the wedding even.  HATE HIM.

    I hate that my ex-bestfriend married the most controlling jerk in the whole world and pushed all of her friends away.  I hate him even more now the she is going to have a baby with him!

    FMIL is frustrating the heck out of me.  She apparently doesnt think that I respect her son.  We are currently living with them until my mom finishes having surgery locally and we can move to dallas.  FI and I joke around with eachother all the time but FMIL is very old school and doesnt get it.  I limit my meat consumption and eat mostly organic, FI lives on hamburger helper and pizza and wont touch a veg with a 10 foot pole, I made a comment about all the stuff I cant pronounce in hamburger helper and was told that is dis-respectful and degrading to FI.  FI is not a handy do it yourself type of guy which is fine with me because I am not either I would rather we just call a professional.  AC broke here and she wanted FI to help FFIL fix it and we both laughed because that is useless and again this is degrading my FI.  I just dont understand and feel like I need to be on pins and needles.  I cannot wait until surgeries are finished and I can get a job and we can move ASAP. (wow that was long and probably more of a SA or B&M sorry)

    Ooh, I had a really good confession a couple days ago and now I can't remember what it was!

    I've pretty much been averaging 1-2 hours of actual work while I'm at work.  I can't really seem to find the motivation to do anymore.  This makes doing my timesheets interesting.

    I think I'm stuck in a rut.  Everything at work and even home I feel "meh" about.

    I felt like that about a month ago. So I consciously took a break from life. I did take a few days off from work, but other than that I still went. Outside of work, I didn't think about job searching, diet and exercise, or the wedding for about two weeks. It really helped me relax and recharge, and I have been much more motivated the last few weeks.

    Two for right now:

    1) I have a date with my husband tonight and I don't feel like putting make up on.  I have to leave in 11 minutes so I could do it.  But I'm not going to.

    2)  I'm not going to see my mom today.  Yes, I go every day so it should be okay to take off a day but I feel pretty guilty about it.

    Julie, I've gone out with FI before with no makeup!

    I am really annoyed by my Nanny (grandma). My cousin recently had a wedding...that we werent invited to...but I think I would be more upset if I wasnt planning a wedding too so I get having to limit guests lists...anywho....My Nanny did get invited though and now she wont shut up about it! Every time I see her its like "They did this for their wedding and it was so cute, look I saved a candy wrapper with their names on it...you should do this at your wedding" and she will go on for 20 mins about a stupid candy wrapper and I want to say NO I think that is lame :)

    I think its mostly because Im just grouchy lately from work, life and wedding planning but for some reason it is just really annoying me

    Plus I really dont like my cousins wife, she is fake and snotty and he is so laid back...its weird :/

    BLAH

    Oh, my husband has seen me without it but we're going to be in Southlake.  I equate Southlake with North Park and my mom always told me to never go to North Park without make up on.

    I really want to strangle our worker right now.

    I found out last night that I am the only cousin in my family that has not had a kid before becoming engaged and I found it funny. 
  • edited December 2011
    Hahah- FI sees me daily without makeup. We live together. I just meant I've gone on a "date" with him, out to eat and to a bar, with completely no makeup. It was quite liberating. I don't make a habit of it, though.
  • edited December 2011
    Oh and that's funny because I used to live in The Village before I moved in with FI, right next to North Park mall and used to go there all the time without makeup!

    Not gonna lie... I'm kind of glad the girl whose job I took over (she got a new role/promotion) is out sick today. If she's not here, she can't take over all my projects. Not to mention she doesn't exactly play well with others.

    Im still a little pissed off at my Mom for telling my sister that she did not know how she was going to hold her head up at my wedding.

    See this is my second marriage, but his first. He wants the full treatment.. church, catered reception, 200 guests... the whole nine yards.  So thats what we are doing. 

    She thinks its inappropriate.

    I hated my last job. The job only required a hs diploma and it definitely showed in the people that I worked with. The supervisors and managers always talked to me like I was dumb, all I wanted to yell out everytime was "no sh*t sherlock." There were new rules implented every week and a majority of them made absolutely no sense. One of the them, I actually challenged it and they realized how stupid it was for the patients and got rid of it.

    I am just counting down the minutes so I can leave work so I can go check today's RSVPs... I haven't gotten much work accomplished in the past couple of weeks....

    I am also thinking about hurling some heavy objects over each of my cube walls. 1) to kills the blaring techno music my one coworker listens to on his headphones in the afternoon.
    2) to get my other coworker to stop clearing the thick phlegm from his throat every 5 min.. :(

    This was my situation too.  (The marriage part, not the mom part.)  I had a hard time with some of it--like the bridal shower.  I did NOT want one, didn't want to register, etc.  I thought it was very inappropriate, especially since we had everything we needed anyway.  But MIL's friends insisted so I went along with it and it turned out to be a wonderful day.

    It sounds like your mom thinks it's going to reflect badly on her somehow.  I hope she comes around.  Even though we really didn't want the whole shebang initially, it the end we were so happy we did it.

    Tiff, mine is in a heap in the corner of my closet.  I can't even hang it up because Lynn cut the strings off so they wouldn't show.
  • edited December 2011

    Stephie - oh no!  That's not cool at all.   Mine is hanging in all of its filthy glory.   I'm thinking of sending it to Wedclean or something and getting it over with.   $129 is a lot of money though.

    Well I have the strings--and I had every intention of taking it to Becky and having her sew them back on.  I even e-mailed her.  In February.

    Lynn just didn't want me fussing and worrying about them all night.  And I would have.  And if I had seen a picture of me with them showing I would have hated it.
  • edited December 2011
    I hate myself for caring...but I can't believe the office hasn't done more for me since tomorrow is my last day.  I've been here nearly 3 years (in Sept) and they've done nothing.  About 8 co-workers came to a happy hour last night for me...but that's about it.  And even though I know I shouldn't care and should just be so happy that I'm getting out of here to do what I want to do, it still hurts.  And makes me feel even more invisible than I already did/do.
