Confessions

mandysmear

I have been reading veronabrit's blog on and off for the past hour.  I'm really enjoying it.

I used to flame her for being such a "pretty girl".

And you?

I've gone home and cried the last two nights in a row. I don't know why. I think it's all the stress right now, but I hate being like this during the holiday season. It was not how I imagined it would be like decorating our tree this year, that's for sure.

I'm only half ass studying for my final tonight. I'm leaving right after I take the final to meet H at a Christmas party, so I'm just ready to get this stupid test over with. I hate this fucking class. It's called Civil Litigation, but it should be called How to Chase an Ambulance Properly.

I confess that I am still hungry after lunch and want to go downstairs to the cafeteria to buy some french fries.

But I also confess I haven't worked out properly in about 10 days so I should probably go easy on the fries.

I confess that while most of the time I am fine with the fact that my dad is no longer with us it often makes me really sad that he won't be there when I get married or have kids or any other of life's big moments. I thought I would have gotten used to it by now since he had already missed other big moments in my life but yet often I find myself really sad.

I confess that I still enjoy watching Boy Meets World and Sabrina the Teenage Witch reruns on ABC Family in the morning.  Partly because nothing else is on at that time, but mainly because I'm a huge dork.

I also confess that I'm craving something really unhealthy for lunch but will wait until the ADT guy leaves so I don't look like a fatass.

Awww, Bubba.

I've eaten probably 5 pounds of chocolate in the last two days.

Ok, that may be an exaggeration, but it's Christmas, and companies like giving us boxes of chocolates.  Really really good boxes of chocolates.

I'm more dreading Christmas than being excited about it. My bro and SIL told us they would be coming down for Christmas this year, but still haven't told us when. We probably won't know until the day before or something. It stresses me out every year trying to balance family time with my side and FI's. I'm afraid that FI's side will need to pick a day and I won't know when to tell them my family is getting together and then when my family finally decides, it will be the same day as FI's. I don't want to miss my side's Christmas this year because it's my niece's first Christmas and I only get to see her every 3-4 months.

I confess I am ready to strangle my boss. She is such a back stabbing bitch. She likes to twist stories and blame other people. She tried blaming me for not knowing what I was doing today during our dress rehearsal for our play and she was the one who didn't know wtf was going on. I knew exactly how things went. Ugh, is the play over yet? I will be doing a happy dance about 8:30 tonight when its all over and she can get out of our faces.

I completely understand. I've been sad for all of the big moments my dad has missed, but getting married without him is in a whole 'nother ball park of having the sads. It breaks my heart for him that he'll miss his only daughter's wedding.

Aw, Dodgers.

I confess I am a bit nervous about Christmas myself. My mom invited FI's family to come to Christmas Eve dinner at our house so everyone can meet eachother and not I am worried that I will be too busy hosting to enjoy the holiday.

I confess that I have been completely unmotivated to do anything for like a week. I just want to sit on my ass and watch TV.

Watching Boy Meets World and Sabrina and What I Like About You is my daily morning routine. I confess that I am very stressed out about moving on the 31st. The apartment complex wants first months rent and a $250 deposit and we can't afford that and Christmas presents this year. I went home after work and cried for about 20 minutes last night.

aplatanada

I confess that H's and my decision not to buy Xmas presents for each other (H is out of work, money is super tight and we don't want to dip into savings) is totally the right decision- because Xmas isn't about presents anyway, right?- I am totally bummed that we are not exchanging gifts on our first Christmas together.

mandysmear

I PVR Full House.

I did sabrina and watched them all.  It played at like 5am.  My husband was annoyed cause i had about 40 episodes at a time. 

I also did this with what I like about you. 

after i am done full house i will look for boy meets world.

Aw Dodgers and Birdie..I'm sorry to hear that

Wow, a week?  That's been me since I got laid off in January.  Even more so since we moved here in September.

Dodgers, my dad passed away when I was 14 and it breaks my heart when I think about all the things I have to do without him being there.

baystateapple

I haven't cleaned my apartment in recent memory.  I've been so incredibly down that I just have no motivation to do it.

I love my boss.  But I really want to quit my job.

DodgersBride

Thanks Fishy may I call you fishy? and Birdie.

I can handle myself pretty well and I have in past for other moments but I think it just something about a wedding that hits hard.

My dad's family treated my mom my sister and myself bad a few years after he died and we have not had any relationship with them at all. So it's kind of hard to explain to FI's family and others what's going on without making myself, my mom or my sister sad.

This. But I have one more really difficult final to do and we have to finish moving out of our apartment.  I also haven't done much Christmas shopping.

I also confess that I went to Sweet Tomatoes with my girlfriend last night and I ate myself into a food coma. It was awesome.

VeronaBrit has been posting on TN, and she says some dumb stuff, though. Just saying!

I confess I've been meaning to clean my desk for 2 weeks and I haven't. It's bad. Like piles of books and papers bad.

I'm also unnaturally upset that a group of my friends haven't decided if they're coming to my holiday party yet. I made it for the 18th because another friend scheduled this ALL DAY thing for the 11th. Well, I guess someone this group sort of knows is having a "housewarming" at noon on the 18th. Our party is at 8. And frankly, I'm offended they would pick someone they barely know who's probably having a lame "bring your own alcohol and food" party over me and my awesome house and awesome party of awesomeness. Some of these people came to my wedding.

Actually, I'm mad they're being so wishy-washy and will probably decide day-of, like Angelinos tend to. Wait, no, I'd still be mad if they pick the other party over mine. Even though mine starts at EIGHT and they can totally go to both.

Birdie1483

Dodgers, we're like the same person. I almost wasn't going to invite my aunts and uncles on my dad's side, but my mom told me I should. I guess they WERE my dad's siblings...

jayjoe

I confess that although i LOVE the holidays, i am dreading having to spend time with my SIL. I just cannot past some of the things she has done and said to and about me. I am a bitch, but i am an honest bitch and the thought of being phoney to her makes my stomach turn.

Dodger, Birdie Hug

crfische

Absolutely. Teej is the only one who calls me crfische, and I find it endearing from her. Otherwise, it just seems so formal.

I suppose I should confess something...

Ummm... I'm gonna have a heart to heart with my friend today and I'm kinda dreading it and likely won't follow through.

[Deleted User]

I confess to being upset over lunch because I realized H took the DVR to work to switch out and I never got to watch the last episode of 16 and Pregnant.  I know it will replay sometime, but still!  A little warning would be nice.

Birdie1483

Should we call you fish, fisch, fishey, or fischey? :-P

TurtlesAllTheWayDown

I also am excited about having a private Christmas with just Oliver, but a few days ago I was suddenly a little sad about not seeing family and not seeing snow for Christmas.

Posted by Birdie1483[/QUOTE]

They won't be invited to the wedding. The only person from my dad's side will be my godmother who was married to my dad's brother. They are now divorce. She was the only one there for us after a certain member of the family was being very harsh and mean to us and the rest sort of follow suit and only listen her. I will be forever grateful for her.
