Friday?
in Wedding Woes
Morning!
Major kudos to @DrillSergeantCat for posting Prudie in @mrsconn23's absence.
I'm at work. I think there's a total of 5 of us here. It's very quiet. I'm hoping the boss man will let us go early.
Tonight I'm going to see my best friend and meet her baby for the first time! He's almost 4 months old now. She and her H come in town from Connecticut every year to visit family for the holidays.
Looks like DH will be coming in town tomorrow to help me entertain his family. Other than that, I'm expecting a pretty uneventful weekend.
What's up with everyone else?
Re: Friday?
Getting ready to do a lot of nothing this weekend. The NYE party is it. I'm sitting on my butt for 3 days as much as possible. Maybe I'll finally beat this damn cold.
I did meet up with a friend yesterday and went to the Children's Museum with our kids. It was a fuh-reaking zoo. I'm not cut out for Christmas break there because people suck and their kids are even worse. However, I slept like a rock last night.
DH will *not* have to work tomorrow night, unless something catastrophic happens. And they *might* get finished up today and he won't have to go in tonight either (fingers crossed). I'm still hoping he'll be amenable to staying home tomorrow night. (We chatted last night and I explained how I'm tapped out on parties/family/leaving the house, and he seemed to understand, but we'll see.)
Yesterday I was off, so M and I went to see "Assassin's Creed" - uhm Michael Fassbender is an attractive male and has a fight scene topless and in tight pants AND THEN HE WEARS THE ASSASSIN'S JACKET! So much hotter!
Now I must see this movie.
M: I get it. you think he's hot ...
No NYE plans as of yet. BFF was also out of town until yesterday, so we're trying to figure something out. @mrsconn23 I'm the opposite of you. We've been at an all inclusive for 8 days so I want to go out and be amongst the people and H wants to stay home. His motivation is to be well rested for the 8pm Lions game on NYD, but neither of us work on the 2nd so why does it matter?
Yesterday I spent all day - literally 11am-5pm - changing my name. Even though I have a flexible schedule, I did just take 12 days off this month, so I don't want to take a day in January to do it. I spent 2 hours at Social Security for what was a 5 minute thing. Then I get to the Secretary of State (our DMV) and the line was 3 hours long. Thankfully you can check in by phone, so I went grocery shopping, got some lunch and came back. Lo and behold, at 4:00 suddenly the staff doubles and the 86 minute wait time I had per their estimate became 26 minutes. I get it, they need office people too, but seriously, people spent 3 plus hours sitting there waiting and had they just come at 4, it could have been done in 1-1.5 hours. But it's official - I'm a hyphenated broad now.
