Chit Chat

All by myself....

Because FI left yesterday to go on a 3 day bachelor party/trip. They went upstate NY, and will be spending the next few days camping, playing football, manhunt, and whatever other guy activities there are. So it's just the kitties and I for the next few days :/ I guess I can use this time to watch all my girly shows and movies!

In other news, I have been pretty busy at work lately. One of the reasons being that I joined a departmental competition - basically we had to create a marketing collateral and sales concept for one of our (randomly assigned) products. I was one of the presenters on my team yesterday, and I was pretty nervous leading up to the presentation, but when it was my turn, totally nailed it. My team still lost, though. Womp Womp. I guess another team had a better concept - although I think ours was better, but whatever lol. After work, the team and I went to wallow in our sorrows with some beers and fancy appetizers.

My friend from work that I posted about before is back to driving me insane. She has a date tonight with some guy she met on the subway (apparently they went to the same college), and she would not stop talking about how he is an engineer, so he has to make a bunch of money, maybe in the 6 figures,owns a house he rents out for at least 2K, blah blah blah. Um, calm down, this is your first "date", who cares if he makes 6 figures or not?? She brought out the snarky in me earlier today.

That's my Tuesday so far. I'm also really tired because I barely slept last night. I'm planning on going for a run later, and maybe reading my book and watching a chick flick. How is everyone's day going?

Re: All by myself....

  • Got my workout in and weeded the back yard. I'm also having a screen door installed at the moment. DH likes to wander the yard looking at the plants with the back door wide open. Hello, BUGS!! Just chillin for the rest of the day

  • WinstonsGirl I went to a bbq this weekend, and I am covered in bug bites. Bugs are not my friend lol. 

    Sugargirl1019 - I feel your pain I had a meeting to come into work for on Sunday!

  • I'm all by myself tonight too! I'm going to a conference several hours away all day tomorrow, and our agency is providing free hotel rooms for those attending. I'm leaving work a little early to get down to the hotel by 8:30 tonight. I'm actually a little too excited about a quiet night to myself to study for my licensure exam and kind of disconnect for the evening.

    The only thing that might suck is getting out of the city during rush hour, but I'll probably treat myself to Panera for dinner tonight for my efforts :)

  • mschristie123, treat yourself! I went to a conference a couple of weeks myself, and it was nice to disconnect for one night, I know what you mean. Maybe I'll open a bottle of vino tonight, actually :)

  • @pinkcow13 I feel for you but it's good to have some free time to yourself! Watching movies, eating dark chocolate and drinking some wine will be nice. I have lived without FI for over a year now since he had to go back to UK (I live in Canada) and I'm alone every single night :( One more month to go and I will be with him again, hopefully this time without any interruption. Sounds like your friend is just trying to "rub it in" when really, she's probably just jealous because you're the one getting married and not her! maybe she thinks she can make you feel bad or something for nor "landing" something richer. But pffffff really who cares!!!

    Yea, I know what you mean! I definitely miss FI, but I feel like this will be good "me" time. I just hate sleeping alone, but I have been like that my whole life. Wow, a year away from FI is rough! The most we were apart was one summer and that really sucked. I hope there are no more interruptions for you when he gets back!

    As for my friend, I have no idea what is going on with her. She is just so different now. Idk if maybe she just wants to brag about her fabulous single life, or what. She has just been so ridiculous lately! Maybe she just needs to get this out of her system or something!

    @msstaticfancypants, I'm such a dork I have been singing it in my head since I posted this lol.

    Me too! And now it's stuck there. My son calls this phenomenon a "brain splinter."
  • @pinkcow13 Thanks I hope there'll be no more interruptions either. He's not coming back but I'm joining him in the UK, just waiting for my visa to come through, I am stressed as hell :( As soon as I get it, I'm leaving Canada forever on September 1st! I don't know how to go on without him anymore...




    I'm sure your friend must be feeling some sort of loneliness and trying to make herself feel better with the fact that the guy is making six figures a year. I know a few girls like that who pretend they're all happy to be single but as soon as they drink too much they cry because they have no one lol.

    Ohh okay, well that is an exciting move, moving to the UK! Yes, a year to be apart is way too long. I'm sure September 1st cannot come fast enough for you!
