@futuremrsn3312, I gotta start doing the same thing for my cat. Last year she had a precious little Christmas cape. Maybe I should start dressing her up for holiday cards. I have a great-aunt who used to put her fat orange tabby cat in ties for Christmas cards.
I made an appointment with a nutritionist this morning so I can talk to her about eating healthier and getting in shape and when I hung up the phone with her I promptly went out and bought a big meatball sub, potato chips, and cookies. LOL
The wedding coordinator for my venue just called (she has an e-mail but doesn't understand that mode of communication apparently.) She wants me to stop by to talk about wedding details for my reception (check my ticker, it's effing close). I LIVE 2 HOURS AWAY!!! I've told her I live 2 hours away but she just refuses to listen. She also told the bar manager we were doing a cash bar when I had told her we weren't doing that at our first meeting! I sent her to voice-mail and I'm not even sorry.

Can't see your ticker. But geeze that would drive me crazy.
It's 9 days away. This follows on the bar manager not following up my e-mailed questions with more than a "call me when you get the chance" and his number. I simply want to know the answer to my question, why are you giving me the runaround? URGH! I now understand how people turn Bridezilla.
Long time lurker here.. hope its okay to join in! I confess that I got married just about a year ago, and I've spent the last couple of days at work looking at my wedding pictures again..
I drank too much wine last night, and I have a raging headache. I'm faking work all day because I'm so excited for my wedding that I can't actually think logically enough to do my job. I also have to work tomorrow which blows.
Part 1: A coworker made cake for someone's birthday & brought me a piece. I took a bite, because CAKE, and it was disgusting! I think it was supposed to be strawberry cake, but not really because it didn't taste like strawberries. It tasted like soap, tears, and fake fruit. The icing was good, so I just ate that and threw the cake part away. Then, I adjusted the trash so the piece of cake is not visible in case she stops by my office again.
Part 2: I was so traumatized from the taste of that cake that I ate a snack pack of Oreos.
Confession: I lied. I ate two snack packs of Oreos.
lol. My continuous teacher confession: I do this OFTEN when kids bring me homemade 'treats' for birthdays and such. I'll take a bite and often hide it in the trash when it is pretty gross. But I have to admit, once in a while you get a kid who has an AWESOME baker/cook person at home.

These are great!! Two for me: 1) my office is outside a break room. If people leave free treats, I take a second helping if I notice the food has been sitting out awhile. 2) we just got our engagement photos and I fear I spent more time gazing at them the past two days than actually working.
I just spent almost the entire afternoon watching a marathon of America's Next Top Model (I am currently working from home until the academic year starts back up). I managed to at least do some work related things during commercial breaks... does that make it any better?
I am the only female in an office of males. On Wed they all took the afternoon off to play golf. I guess it was some networking thing. They left me behind because I don't golf and they needed someone in the office. I hit the send all calls to my voicemail (so if they call, they would think I am on the phone) and I left the office at 4:00 pm. That's after I snuck out of the office at 10:00 am to go to the RMV to register my car.

Was it the All-Stars one? Totally had it on in the background while I did the dishes and drank a vodka limeade.
Told my boss excitedly that I was almost done (as in, by days end) with long project she wanted completed. To reward me, she told me a) check to see if other sections of long project need help and b) see if PITA coworker had any research needing doing. Wanted to open my mouth, stick my foot in, and hop back to my office.
PITA coworker had maniacal grin on face today saying "BOSS told me I GET TO HAVE YOU FOR MY PROJECT" (note, I nearly had to go home and change my pants due to the fear her expression inspired). Of course, then, after getting info on what she wanted, and contacting people she needed my help in getting info from, I got yelled at by one of these people as I couldn't answer every single question and detail as to why we needed certain info. Sigh. And this is on top of my other assignments and work I must do.
At least there's football this weekend, and dang it, I want Chipotle for lunch!
I wore yoga pants, a tank top, a zipper-up, and flip flops to work today (I work on a trading floor at a brokerage) and IDGAF.
Last night, I put Nutella and Fluff in between graham crackers. Best. Decision. Ever.
Great, I just got home from the grocery store and now I want to go back to buy Fluff and graham crackers. Because I think I need this in my life today.
Confession 1: I was grocery shopping this past weekend with FI and an old guy told me my crack was showing... not only did he tell me this, he whispered it in my ear... really???
2: Totally wearing a tshirt, jeans and neon green flip flops while I sit at my desk at a school district.... yah, don't care. HELLO Friday!

Why yes, yes it was. Glad I'm not the only one :-)
I may or may not have eaten 3 huge iced cupcakes in the past 24 hours because I was mad about something. I may or may not have also eaten the Reeses cups my BF brought me when he learned of the something I was mad about. (Hint: I ate both. And I'll probably do it again.)
One of my managers brought rum pumpkin bundt cake with cream cheese frosting in to the breakroom. I may have eaten more than my one allocated slice...the rum also might've not completely baked out...I had a good shift today.
I have a petty confession. My ILs have this annoying habit of doing the whole "keeping up with the joneses" with us. Any time we buy a truck, they run out and buy something similar within weeks. Two years ago I got a nice truck, and they bought one a few years older. Then DH bought me a 1976 Chevy truck as a wedding gift. ILs, who know very little about classic cars, bought a 1976 Chevy camaro two weeks later. We just bought a gorgeous SUV from the fire dept my husband is with, and MIL texted me today saying she bought a new car, and said "it's a little red fire truck." She just had to go out and buy a red SUV like ours. I'm so mad I could scream. I want to tell them to stop copying us but that's just as juvenile as their behavior.
So, I confess this is not my confession...but the "two Oreo snacks" confession reminded me of my all-time favorite niece story. My sister had bought Krispy Kreme doughnuts for breakfast and, when everyone was done, she pushed the leftovers all the way to the back of the counter where she THOUGHT my then 3-year-old niece couldn't reach them. Fast forward a few hours later and she sees her daughter with that yummy KK icing all over her face. Here is the conversation:
Sister: "Did you have a Krispy Kreme doughnut?"
Niece: "Noooooo."......"I had TWO Krispy Kreme doughnuts."
