Pretty sure it is the official motto. The unofficial motto is the thing about being too good for my toilet.

New immediate boss can go fuck herself. Nothing is THAT pressing that you ask a pregnant woman who just came from a doctor's appointment and is famished to interrupt her lunch and come and see her and head about. I should make the doc take my BP here. I'm sure it's not 118/76.

New person hired at my 2nd office location wants to meet with me tomorrow. She included her office location in the e-mail that she sent me. I know where your office is, woman, because it was my office until they hired you! Apparently I'm still bitter about that.

Didn't sleep well last night but my afternoon meeting got cancelled so I thought sweet I'll take a nap. DH has been getting home past 8p the past two days on this new rotation. Today? He gets home 10 minutes into my nap. Typical.

Ugh. I haven't been sleeping well either, and last night DH called to say goodnight 20 minutes after I had fallen asleep. Argh.

The air conditioner compressor in DH's truck blew up this morning, and it costs $1,400 to replace.

For the past couple of weeks, DH keeps rolling over in bed until I have about 2" of space and an elbow in my back. I realize he's not doing it intentionally, but I already can't sleep and decreasing space while my size is increasing does not help! I try to wake him up to get him to move, and he'll literally move his head and his feet. This 1) looks super uncomfortable and 2) does not actually give me any more space. Arg.

Have you talked to him about it when he's awake? Try talking to him and telling him that he can't cross a certain spot on your bed when he's sleeping. There have been co-sleeping studies done with college students, and as long as they haven't altered their mental state (drinking, etc), they were successfully able to stay away from an object in the bed simply by being told they couldn't touch it before they went to sleep (in an overwhelming majority of cases). I've actually found it's helped a lot with DH's sleeping "love" (it's not very loving to have an elbow in your back) as well!

You know what's awesome? Being jolted awake by the sound of your dog vomiting on the carpet you had cleaned less than 24 hours ago. So. Angry.

Ohhhhhhh, I hate that sound!
I hope your pup is okay, and that the day gets better.

E woke up around 1:30 and hubby volunteered to go get her. So he brought her into the bedroom to me. Umm, we stopped doing that over 2 weeks ago...

Also, I think I may have left the 2oz I pumped this morning on my bathroom counter.

And I don't have an office at my second work location right now. Pretty much I hate today.

Grass. All grass :/ I'm so tired.

So, yeah my car got broken into last night.

Awesome. Full disclosure: my doors were unlocked, though they very rarely are. There was nothing of value in the car, but when I got in this morning, all the stuff from my glove compartment and center console had been strewn about, trashing the front area. It was so creepy to get in this morning and realize that someone had been in there. They didn't take anything, and they had done the same thing to a girls' car in the next building over. The cops were there as I was leaving and I told them though they didn't seem too concerned, saying it rarely happens but sometimes people will just go through and try door handles.

I mean, I get it - my door was unlocked. I had it coming. It just feels like an invasion and is more upsetting because a) I was alone (not that this makes a huge difference but does make it creepier for some reason b) my car was parked under about three streetlights and c) was within mere feet of our building and other people's apartment porches/doors. It just seems creepy to me, and makes me even less excited to be home alone.

Scary WPW! Sounds like they were just going for the easy grab, I'm glad they weren't more aggressive.

That's happened to me twice, with my car sitting in OUR DRIVEWAY. In order to get to my car, you'd have to walk up our driveway and *past* our house to the back ... that makes it feel especially brazen to me. I had nothing of value in the car (save for some change in the ashtray, which the thief stole), and my doors were unlocked both times. I had similar feelings of being upset and violated, WPW, I'm sorry you had to go through that.

I do lock my car doors now, and every time I do it I experience a flash of anger at the fact that I have to lock my car doors in my own freaking driveway.
