Bored. And boring.

DramaGeek · July 2012

Hey, you were warned :-P

I need to go in to work but I don't feel like it. I have plenty of work to do around the house, but I don't want to do that either. I'm sitting here waiting for something interesting to happen on E so I can be entertained. Oh, and catching up on Food Network Star.

You?

AllAboutTheBenjamin · July 2012

Chowing on some lunch - white chicken chili and a cold chicken and wild rice salad. In a few I'm going to run home to pack my suitcase so Ben and I can high-tail it out of this town when I finish work. The lake is calling

I am working on only one story today. Boring boring boring.

ErinG93 · July 2012

I just got home from working (for all of an hour). Today was supposed to be my day off, but somebody had to go answer phones. Boo.

I'm really enjoying dog cuddles right now.

DramaGeek · July 2012

Also, I am loving the Applegate Farms "What's in your hot dog?" commercials.

mari0225 · July 2012

I just got done eating lunch, I am looking at things online to decorate our bedroom with before I get busy at work again. I went last night and bought another cream color pillow so now at least my throw pillows in the living room match.

dumdumfroggie · July 2012

I just finished lunch. I'm counting down the hours until I get to go home. We're going downtown to hear the orchestra and watch fireworks tonight. They are doing John Williams music tonight, so FI really wants to hear it.

DramaGeek · July 2012

I love that you all just finished lunch. I just finished breakfast!

dumddum, that sounds like a blast. I love John Williams.

Rach, what is Great Wraps and what is in this wrap? I'm a huge wrap fan.

raes19 · July 2012

I feel a cold coming on and don't feel like being productive at work today. At least it's not super busy like it was yesterday, so being a slacker is NBD today.

Girlie1030 · July 2012

I'm waiting for practical jokes to get started. We just had a team come back from the field after 6 weeks and they're a little punchy. I hear weather balloons may be involved so I'm highly curious.

mari0225 · July 2012

H and I are going to the fireworks tonight as well, I am so excited, he always has to work on the 4th so i'm glad that now he can come with me to see some fireworks tonight!

<u>Jealous!</u> I love John Williams! Enjoy!

We're going to my parents house for pasta and wine tonight. We're surprising my dad by bringing Baxter over for the evening. Hopefully it goes over well with the cat.

hannahmassey · July 2012

I'm currently sitting at my desk, lurking on TK, instead of working. Boss decided to ignore my request to be paid before the holiday and called to tell me he's not coming in today or the rest of the week. Was hoping to do something fun for the 4th.

DramaGeek · July 2012

Is it normal to have fireworks before the 4th? Our city shows are always on the 4th. I wish we had some earlier - I love fireworks!

baystateapple · July 2012

Finished lunch. Trying to get my coworker to stop talking to me about homosexuality is perversion. My bra is really ill-fitting today and making me uncomfortable. I really need to get some new ones but I'm pretty broke until payday.

Do you not have set pay days? Or is tomorrow supposed to be your pay day? Because if tomorrow is your pay day and you guys didn't get paid today instead, that's a real diiick move.

AllAboutTheBenjamin · July 2012

I look horrible in maxi dresses. I just look like I'm all boobs. Which, let's face it, I am. But I don't want to always LOOK it.

Speaking of boobs I ordered two bikinis from venus.com last week and they arrived last night, in time for the 4th

I am SO JACKED because they fit me completely perfectly. I am so excited to wear them. It's so hard to find a good suit, so yeah - I fully endorse Venus. I am not sure I'll ever buy a different suit again.

Posted by DramaGeek[/QUOTE]

Where I grew up we only had them on the 4th, but apparently it's becoming popular around here because some people have to go back to work on Thursday and most are off on Wednesday.

raes19 · July 2012

Drama, most of the cities around here do fireworks on the 3rd, because they figure people are more likely to go out if they have the next day off.

DramaGeek · July 2012

That makes a lot of sense. I wish H had tomorrow off. I hate that we never get to be together for the 4th. It's one of my favorite holidays. Oh well, at least I'll see him earlier in the day for birthday lunch!

Now I'm shopping on eShakti.com. Anyone order from them before?

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: Bored. And boring. : I completely feel you on the boob front. Which ones from Venus? I've never had one fit from there and used to blame it on the boobs.

Um...

This one

And this one

<a href="http://www.venus.com/viewproduct.aspx?BRANCH=24~89~&ProductDisplayID=14145&dept=Shop+by+StyleHalter+Tops&prod=marilyn+bra+top%2c+moderate+bottom" rel="nofollow">http://www.venus.com/viewproduct.aspx?BRANCH=24~89~&ProductDisplayID=14145&dept=Shop+by+StyleHalter+Tops&prod=marilyn+bra+top%2c+moderate+bottom</a>

I never have problems with the bottoms fitting but finding a good top is so hard. I bought these tops in DD. They fit like a friggen dream.

My H never has the 4th off either, so I can sympathize with you. My IL's want me to come over to their house for the 4th, really don't want to though.

JessAndTrav · July 2012

I'm going to meet a friend at 1pm for lunch, although I had a bowl of Lucky Charms like, an hour ago...but I'm blaming the baby.

I'm half-way watching a Lifetime Movie about a man who is obsessed with his neighbor's wife and is trying to win her love in creepy ways. He fantasizes about killing her husband and installed a camera in her bedroom and WATCHES her have sex with her husband.

CREEEEEEEEEEEPY.

<div>Mari, I hear ya. We're doing lunch at my parents' and then I'll probably go hang out with our friends. I love these particular friends, they treat us like family and always include us/me.

Posted by rachers1017[/QUOTE]

Great Wraps is SO good.

I just got back to the office from the courthouse. I had to reserach a mortgage filing so that was boring. I went and got a slice and salad from this place called Vino's for lunch becuase it reminds me of 'home' and I needed that today.

specialk84 · July 2012

We are now home from the dentist. Due to MIL's refusal to seek dental care for H during his childhood, he had to have a tooth pulled when he was 20. He is finally getting around to getting an implant. I would like to ask MIL for the $3500 to fix a problem she could have prevented. Obviously, I won't, but it makes me hate her a little more.

Girlie1030 · July 2012

I'd say it's not gravy if it's red, but I'm pretty sure that arguement's been had before.

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: Bored. And boring. : Huh I wouldn't expect either to fit a DD. I think I might try out the first one. I almost bought it before but got hung up on the enhancer wording and figured it'd be one of those push up ones. I tried a bandeau top from JCrew this year and was completely impressed that it actually fits and provides support.
Posted by lovethebeach16[/QUOTE]

Yeah. For real. I feel like a damn supermodel, lol. The Marilyn top is my favorite of the two.

I think bandeau style swimsuits are so adorable but I've never been able to find one that... you know. Holds me up. lol

raes19 · July 2012

Oooh I've never heard of Venus before. Maybe I should give them a try, I have DDs and it sucks finding a top that fits properly.
