Linking up with Melissa from Lulu & Sweet Pea for some things I don't love Thursday!!
I'm currently loving, but also not really loving the fact that I have to basically get an entirely new wardrobe.. like today. I went from a job where I wore sweat pants every day, to a job where I have to look nice! I'm really excited about this, but my bank account is not. Yay for Loft loving Teachers and giving an extra 15% off discount!!!
The panic about some snow has begun. I have been at work for a little over an hour and I have already had no less than 12 conversations about the snow. Kids are bummed out because they are calling for snow on a day that they don't have school anyway. People have stocked up on enough milk and bread to survive Snowpacolypse 2013. I could in all honesty care less.
The fact that Snowpacolypse 2013 could possibly interrupt my date plans and dating in general. I feel like dating now a days is like playing high stakes monopoly. Going to jail is a very real possibility because lets be honest girls be crazy, You have to get dressed up, leave the house, be interesting and charming when sometimes all you want to do is stay home with your cat (but then you'll be "that" person..), we all want to be the shoe, but sometimes you end up being the top hat (take from that whatever you'd like, it can even be a little bit dirty)
My Flirty Faces.
Here I thought I was being subtle... Apparently not.
So now I'm off to go practice flirty faces in the mirror, perhaps I'll try a more smoldering temptress look?
Happy Thursday!
Happy Thursday Lovelies!
I wanted to Link up with Melissa from Lulu & Sweet Pea for:
My Boss. She's just.. Ugh. I'll leave it at that since it is the interwebz and who knows. Yuck.
Guys. Just in general. Yeah yeah, we all know I'm dating again, and y'all Dating. Sucks. I do finally have a single friend in Chelsee (SouthernBeautyGuide) to share my "BOYS ARE SO STUPID AND I HATE THEM" texts and stories. Guy's who "dont want anything serious", Guys who "I'm just not ready", Guys who take you out once, blow you off and then randomly text you 4 months later and act like nothing happened and that you should be over the moon that he suddenly decided to grace you with his presence. Girl Please.
"Spicy" Toothpaste. Y'all know what I'm talking about. Those toothpastes that set your whole mouth on fire. Cool Minty Fresh my butt.
The Baby Obsessed. With the exception of the previously mentioned Chelsee, all of my close girlfriend's are married. So far only one has actually had a baby, but several others are just freaking OBSESSED with getting pregnant. Now, I'm not a huge baby person, they flat out scare me and I am woman enough to admit that, however, when it gets to the point that the only thing you can talk about is your ovulation, mucus and what position is best for conception, we have a problem. A big one. I could care less. Seriously.. I don't care at all. Take that mess outta here.
Returns. Are just such a hassle.
I'm adding this one after I had already posted this but Katelyn and I were just texting and reminded me of this other common practice that I absolutely do not love:
Eloping, "Big Wedding"s, Vow Renewal. All of these things by themselves, fine! Wonderful! I Love love as much as the next person. I had never heard of this until The Knot.com, and I still think it's much more common with the Military. Apparently it is now perfectly acceptable to get married by a Justice of the Peace, and then have a "big wedding" a few months down the line. WHAT?! Can we say Tacky? Spell it with me now: T-A-C-K-Y. Even worse in my opinion are the people who are married, and have been married for years, and then out of the blue they announce "I'm getting married!". Oh? You are? Did you get a divorce that no one knew about? "No, but I want a real wedding." Oh.. so you are somehow less married than someone who had the frilly froufrou princess and the mini crab cake appetizers? There are people all over who would love to have the right to get married in any way, but by all means Princess, waste your money and plan a big fancy smancy "Wedding". I also find that really rude because you're implying that someone who eloped/JOP'd isn't married enough. You chose in a moment of weakness/excitement/whatever that you didn't want any of that "wedding" stuff and that a Justice of the Peace was the wedding you wanted. I'm sorry that a year or two down the line that you decided that your wedding was no longer the wedding you wanted and then you want a "real wedding". I have no problem's with Vow Renewal's, Love them! but be upfront with your guests that you're happily married and that you don't need any gifts (they'll probably still bring them!). /end soapbox rant.
I'm linking up with Lulu & Sweet Pea today for her "Things I don't Love". Seems like a fun way to get some things that I'm not loving off my chest.
Get ready y'all.. I'm about to get real up in here.
Things I don't love:
Girls who claim to only want a FWB (Friend's with Benefits) type relationship. Ladies, when you enter into this kind of relationship with a guy, you're telling him that you obviously don't respect yourself enough to want to be his girlfriend. You're worth more than a 9pm "I couldn't find anything better do so lets hook up" text message. I speak from experience. I used to be that kind of girl, too emotionally damaged to be able to handle anything more than an evening the felt good at the time, but only left me more damaged the next day. I used to be a good time girl. Then my ex happened, and well.. I had to seriously re-evaluate my decisions. You can kid yourself into thinking you're okay with that, but girlfriend, You and I both know better! Respect yo self, and tell him you want more.
That Christmas comes and goes so quickly.. I miss it already.
How Jessica Simpson already seems to be 11 1/2 months pregnant. Man.. this will be another long pregnancy.
Filing my nails. I've been trying to grow them out, and I guess that means I'm supposed to file them? I hate it. A lot. The feeling of sand paper across my nails seriously gives me the willies. Yuck yuck yuck.
My brain when it gets a brilliant idea. It wakes me up way before my alarm and forces me to go to the grocery store (NEVER AGAIN WALMART!) before work. Though the end result is a pretty brilliant marketing tool, if I do say so myself!
The 17924372 things and meetings I'm supposed to go to today. I have a kickoff dinner for Relay for Life, a fundraising committee meeting for the senior adult association, a staff meeting, I need to update our computer system, print out stuff, organize our desk and I still need to find sometime to get books for next semester which starts in less than a week. Sheesh. I need a nap.
What are you not loving today?
