This exciting life.
Hubs has band practice tonight and I have quite the evening planned for myself.
My DVR is overloaded since I was gone for nine days, so epic amounts of television will be watched.
I’m making decorations for my coworker’s baby shower—I’m co-hosting & it’s on Tuesday, so I’d better get my shit together.
I might eat cereal for dinner. Who can say...
Snacks.
I want cookies so fucking bad right now. Why cookies? I don’t know. Oh, shit… I think there’s leftover biscotti in the conference room. That’ll do in a pinch.
EDIT: Holy shit you guys. I went in there and found a box of Snickers bars. GOD WANTED ME TO HAVE THEM.

Michelle Duggar giving the resounding logic that many religious and battered women reside with. My husband likes to govern with a fist, but it’s my fault for being born subordinate. If only he trusted me more! (via lacielacie)
I just threw up in my mouth.

Truthful Tuesday, con't.
Things other people seem to love that I think are dumb: Conan O’Brien, The Simpsons, Sean Penn, The Real Housewives of fucking anywhere, Michael Moore, Ed Schultz, most conservatives, Star Wars, Chris Brown, Madonna… Um… I hate lots of stuff. Probably more that I can’t think of right now.
This post brought to you by my accidentally viewing fifteen minutes of Conan this...

Deal-breaker.
Hubs was supposed to bring a donut & coffee to me at work since I’ve been up since 3 am and IT’S ALL HIS FAULT. He promised a donut & coffee three and a half hours ago. If he’s not here within the next 20 minutes, it’s D-I-V-O-R-C-E.
I promise I have adorable pictures of Mac in NY & CT to post in addition to all my fucking tired/donut/coffee whining....

Mac & I fell asleep at 3:30 yesterday afternoon and took a little jet lag nap. Well, it was supposed to be a nap but hubs never woke us up. We got up at 3:18 am and have been up ever since. Working today is going to be awesome.
Home sweet home.
Can’t believe I spent nine days on the East Coast and ate not a single Dunkin Donut. The fuck?
Huh.
You can make fun of me if you want to, but I miss the East Coast & I want to move home. Wah.
At sister-in-law’s til Sunday. New nephew is adorbs but a screecher. Must run in the family.
This House Panel on Birth Control Consists...
good:
The GOP’s explanation: The fight over birth control coverage mandates is “not about women.” It’s about “religious liberties.”
Really? Or is it just easier to wage a culture war using the language of “freedom” and “big government”?

RAGE. SO FULL OF RAGE.

Can’t answer mail on my phone, so please excuse the publicity.
Since you have a child, you are considered independent UNLESS your parents claim you and little guy as dependents on their taxes. Check with your financial aid office to be sure, but the consensus at my breakfast table at a college access conference this morning is what I said above.

Be mine.
Happy Valentine’s Day, ya’ll. I’m still in NYC. No internet except on my phone. I forgot my list of photoaday themes. I fail, again. Connecticut tomorrow. Maybe I’ll get back on the photo bus.
I miss you guys.
That is all.

Too many cupcakes.

I lost a follower today. Is it because I said my kid was being a dick? Well, he was, so whatever. He was sweet as pie this evening, though.

Wah.
Today I am a busy business lady (h/t Lazy Dad).
Round two interviews for two people we probably won’t hire. These will last from 9 AM - 11:30 AM.
Conference call from noon - 1. I’m leading the call and I still don’t really know what I’m going to talk about.
Conference call from 1 - 2. Apparently, I’m presenting in a session on advocacy and marketing at the...
cyrusgabe replied to your post: Trickery
You live in NYC?
Nope. I live in Washington state, but I grew up in NJ and my sister still lives there. I’m going to be in NYC for a conference, so my sister is hauling herself up to see me. Actually, the lobby of the Hilton will be like a weird parade of my relatives stomping through on various days. They just love me for my baby.
michaeladaily replied to your post: Mac woke me up at 5 am and now he’s yelling at me….
If it makes you feel any better at 5AM my kid smacked me in the face and yelled SURPRISE before announcing that there was pee in her bed. I gave her life, I don’t understand why she doesn’t love me…
Fuck, right? Mac hit me in the face with my slippers. I don’t mind him bringing my slippers to me,...
