I love looking at multi-million dollar home listings online. My current obsession is Monterey/Big Sur, since we were there for the weekend. I'll take 3 f these, please:

Now when I'm upstairs she goes downstairs, and vice versa. I just caught her in my closet, admiring my shoes as one would a grand buffet.
East coasters have no concept of west coast geography. People are always telling me they're going to be in [insert LA area city/town here] and we should meet for drinks. My brother just did it.
add your own.

"WHY did you take them?!"
me: "take what?"
H :" The books. You took them all to San Francisco!"
me: "What books?"
H: "why are you talking to me? I'm sleeping"
A few minutes later he jumped out of bed and said:
"There! Do you see those fins?! There's the head, there's the teeth and there's the football!"
He was standing at the window pointing at the shadows the trees were making. It was pretty funny. Apparently he was dreaming a shark was eating a football.
I had a dream that I was telekinetic last night. I have these dreams often.
2. I don't want to go to this wedding in NY this weekend, but I was looking forward to seeing my parents. We'll have to wait and see what Hurricane Earl decides to do.

i have the worst leg cramps ever. i have woken up with a charley horse every night this week.
i am going home and baking myself a cake, either chocolate or vanilla.
Waking up and you're tippy toed in bed but only with one foot. And then the pain is so intense you want to punch something.
And yet, I still find it interesting.
It would be really cool to go home and make a wedding album on shutterfly, but I doubt that I will do that. I'm lazy.
I'm waiting on a call from one of my doctors that should have been recieved by now. Boo.
I just a friendly gal looking for options.
I do that, too, zsa-zsa.
because we're in an apt, i can't scream in pain. otherwise, the perfectly nice marine who lives next door will probably think that dh beats me or something untoward like that.
real estate listings are both awesome and horrible. dh and i got super depressed over them -- a 1 br condo here is a 5 br house in il or mi. we would buy a house in cash in wi with the $ from a down payment here in va.
i do enjoy google satellite maps. i didn't know my parents' neighbor had a pool!
[QUOTE]That's interesting, CW, because I want you guys to move to the bay area too!

by the time we get there you'll be moving back across the country! We've only been in our house for a year and 5 months...and I don't think we'll be able to sell it anytime soon. :(
One lady who is ~35-40 was all, "I've never made a cake from scratch".
I'm sorry, but I judge that. It's so much cheaper to bake from scratch AND you know EXACTLY what is in it. DUH.
::huge eyeroll::
I hadn't ever baked a cake from scratch until I recently. (However, it should be noted, I do not eat cake).
Our timeline for moving back home keeps getting longer and longer. I'm beginning to think we're here for good. I have mixed feelings about that.
When you have a charley horse, pull your toes toward your knee as hard as you can. The idea of it is awful when you're hurting that much, but it stretches the muscle and the pain stops immediately.

Not anymore! They got evicted (though they ignored that and squatted for awhile) The case finally went to court a month and a halfish ago, and the homeowner asked my H to go as a witness. The homeowner won, methy went back to jail, and we got a ton of corn and melons from the homeowners garden as a thank you :D
When I first brought Son home I wondered, "what the hell did I get myself into?"
Dr. cleared me for bcbc. I'm not ready for it. I'm deathy afraid of becming IDKIWP. OB asked if I was using BC. I told him we used NFP. He was very nonjudgemental, but warned that BFing makes charting a little tricky. THen he actually recommended pulling out. Besides the fact that it defeats to purpose of NFP,I was
I've have a couple meltdowns over the past few weeks. H felt compelled to call my mother to house because I was a crying mess and he was away at work. Meltdowns were mostly related to BFing. It's been tough. I can't keep up with my little porker. OB made me feel better when he said today, "It's okay (to supplement). Just BF first so he can get the antibodies and stuff, and bottlefeed so he can get the nutrition." I felt like a weight had been lifted. I've been so hung up on being able to BF alone and feeling like I've failed because I couldn't.
I did wake up screaming becuase of leg cramps a couple times. H slept through it. Sometimes stretching would trigger a leg cramp. THat was tortuous in itself. I love stretching.
If you google my house you can see the c0ck fighting ring the previous owners had set up. You'll also see the rows of rooster pens and dog kennels.

<div>Because states out here are retardedly huge, yo. I mean, I grew up in a place where you could drive six hours and be IN ANOTHER COUNTRY. Now I drive six hours, I might not even be in another state! It's ludicrous! Why would you make states so big?! </div>
