confessions
June 19th, 2007 @ 10:40 pm | blonde moments | Post a CommentI still log in on my destination wedding planning message board every day.
For all my blabber about wanting to be a sassy and fabulous urbanista, sometimes I think we should move to the ‘burbs.
I ate four Thin Mints for dinner.
Today I came very close to whispering to a stranger on the Metro that she should consider nominating herself for What Not To Wear.
Sometimes I wish we didn’t have any pets.
I haven’t flossed since my dentist told me a week ago that I don’t have any cavities. And I might not floss again until next week.
Our sheets have holes in them, but I won’t let us use the luxurious, new bedding we got for the wedding until we have a new place to live.
I kind of want to see Evan Almighty because I am in comedy-love with Steve Carrell.
I wish we had more wedding photos of just the two of us.
I still doodle my new married name like a schoolgirl with a crush.
I am an emotional eater. The problem is that all of my emotions lead to eating, not just one or two of them.
I am totally over sage green.
Whew, I totally feel better. Anyone out there wanna get something off your chest? Confess to your little heart’s content in the comments!
I have a cold/allergies (?) today and I completely ignored all that “eate well and dont’ eat dairy” advice. I ate two cookies and cream cupcakes and several glasses of milk and cottage cheese.
I came home from work and napped for almost three straight hours instead of studying for the GRE.
I love taking Newsweek because it makes me feel smart, but I have a hard time reading some of the more “scholarly” articles about foreign conflicts. I’m a total lightweight.
Sometimes I think I’d LOVE to live in a foreign country, and other times I just wish I lived across the street from my parents.
I hate slow or wimpy drivers, but I am often a wimpy driver myself. Such a hypocrite.
I’m irrationally proud of my ability to sleep well consistently.
I think reading “real” books is more legit than reading things on the Internet, even when I’m only reading total junk chick lit. I’m a book snob, apparently.

I climbed over a gate with a “No Trespass” sign on it tonight. This small bit of rebellion made me feel a bit better, for some odd reason.

Dude, thank goodness it’s not just me. I had a glass of champagne, three rasberries, and two oatmeal cookies for dinner.

I am completely not in the mood for school and have no energy for the coming two weeks of teaching. There. I said it.
OH and I stuffed my healthy eating today COMPLETELY. Shoot.

I had two margaritas for dinner last night, if that is any consolation.

Oh, I have a confession…and a very guilty one at that.
This morning when I dropped off my son at preschool, I had a little chat with the teachers about how ‘fresh’ my son is acting the last few days. He’s normally so polite and helpful, and lately he’s just been fresh. So the teachers haven’t noticed anything, but they agreed to watch out for it and discuss it and all that good stuff. And then one of the teachers said ‘He’s such an observant kid, I’m sure he’s just picking it up from another kid here.’ That’s when I had to get out of there fast…observant? That just hit home and then I realized…he’s getting this from me! I am the most sarcastic, fresh person, EVER! I didn’t tell them that, so I’m venting to you…and now I’m vowing to stop!
Wow, I feel better…thanks for listening!

I also wish we had more wedding pictures of just the two of us.
I always click through the Featured Wedding slideshow at The Knot and wish that they would feature weddings that didn’t cost the same amount as my college education.
I have a little flutter of the heart every time I see I have new e-mail and I check my e-mail every half hour or so. As a result, I am consistently disappointed because who gets that much e-mail?
I’m really jealous that my husband gets summers off.

Steve Carell is FABULOUS. He did an enterview on like Access Hollywood or something and he is just really cool. (yes, I said cool). Plus, he’s married to Lauren Graham in that movie. Double plus.

I completely agree about the wedding photos. We hired an amazing editorial-type photographer and our photos are beautiful, but they all seem so panoramic. I wish we had some ones of us close up. Oh well.
Also, I started a new running plan yesterday (complete with scary 20-minute upper body workout afterwards), and I’m having major problems picking up Wito today.

I hate* my brother and I don’t know what to do about it considering I kind of have to live with him for the next year at least…wait, he doesn’t read your blog right?
*yes, hate is a strong word, but trust me, if you knew the situation you would too.

Umm, I’m on a super strict diet right now and all I can think about is the vanilla ice cream sitting in my freezer. For breakfast. Yummmm…

I already made my confession in my blog today!
I am persisting in wearing sandals, despite feet who are offensively in need of a pedicure. Had I been your seat mate on the metro this morning, you may have had the urge to whisper to me, “Put those things away, girl!”

I wish I could find a better balance between being a working mom and a stay at home mom - I want to be both but neither full time.
Sometimes I wish we could just junk it all and start over somewhere new - who cares about responsibilities??
I agree on the pet front - I sometimes wish our pets were easier to manage. (Al the dog woke us a 3 a.m. today puking…so NOT fun)
Whew! I feel better!!

Very interesting! I especially liked the part about how you’re not using your luxurious sheets. Haven’t you ever heard that advice about living for the moment?

The thin mints for dinner made me laugh out loud. I’ve been there. It’s juuust enough hunger mixed with laziness and POW; you’re reading the nutritional value of Mentos and singing that damn theme song.

1. I am planning my wedding even though I’m not engaged yet. (Minneapolis books out terribly far in advance.)
2. I am over the whole “red wall” thing. If I look at one more house for sale with one red wall, I’m going to vomit all over said wall.

Oooooh the pet thing. I’m with ya. Love my puppy, but seriously, do you HAVE to be touching me every 5 seconds? Life exists beyond my lap, fool.

I’m with you on the pet thing too. The cats drive me insane sometimes.

I am convinced my step-mother in law is not a competent babysitter. How do I refuse her daily advances for “helping me” politely?

I am procrastinating checking my email right now.
We slept in really late today. And yesterday. And ….a shameful number of days before that. I don’t think it’s sleeping ‘in’ anymore…we just have weird hours.
Which is probably why we never do anything with other people.
I’m about 80% ok with that, because I haven’t met/don’t know in real life anyone who seems as fun and cool as a lot of the people I ‘know” online. Also, there seem to be a lot of jerks in SB.
I want to move just so my husband will have to go through all his crap and GET RID OF IT!
I’m seriously considering pouring bleach on the new oak tree the stupid city planted in my parkway yesterday. Without asking me. I hate oak trees.
I almost got a baby bunny yesterday, but I have no place to put him.
Oh yeah…I wish I lived in a city where the bloggers met up - I’d go in a minute!

I ate a bologna and cheese sandwich for dinner. With fritos. But I used whole wheat bread.
I hate whole wheat bread but I eat it anyway.
Am also an emotional eater who eats with ALL emotions. Why is this?!?!
Work is so boring right now. We’re very slow and I feel like I am going crazy. Slowly.
CP is really annoying me lately. I haven’t figured out how to tell him.
And my cats are driving me nuts!

I know I should clean the house a little or do yard work tonight before Tim gets home from school, but i’m probably just going to curl up on the couch with a book.

I haven’t blogged since September 2006!
I’m supposed to be taking advantage of Cole’s nap by working but I’m blogging instead.
Congrats on your wedding!!!

I like being in school and checking for my grades to be posted even when I know they wont be there yet. I like looking at my 4.0 GPA.
Matt’s confession is that he wants a fabulous TV when he graduates. (He didnt say fabulous, but you know)
