Sorry you aren't feeling well, Julia. If it's number 3, I suspect we will all be joining you shortly! Feel better soon!

We just want to simplify and not consume as much. We'd like to live so that we produce more than we consume, and we want to consume only healthy things when possible. By this, I mean not only food, but also information, energy, resources, etc.

4.) Blame it on txtqueen.

For the first time in 19 months, my son actually kissed me back!! He's always been one of those kids who hates hugs or kisses from mom, but we have a nightly ritual that daddy puts him to bed and on his way, he brings Andrew to me to give him a kiss goodnight. This time andrew walked to me, i said "Can momma have a kiss goodnight?" and he sucked his lips inward and put his face forward next to mine! It was so adorable.

He wouldnt do it for daddy either

I have to admit tonight, I am so livid, I could just about drop a box of baby kittens in a effing volcano.

So TG was supposed to pick me up today from work. Instead his sister calls me and says she is picking me up. We're ALL were supposed to go over to his parents house for dinner, so I didn't think anything of it. Usually he has to work past 6pm so I didn't think anything of it at all.

I called him to see what time HE was going to be getting to his parents house, keep in mind he has my car.
He says midnight, that a bunch of units weren't fixed and they have to be done by tomorrow and the whole crew has to stay. M I D N I G H T!!!!!!!! Mothereffing midnight.

What pissed me off the most, is his supervisor was like "oh she'll be ok" NO I WON'T. I am not ok.

So here I am waiting up till he comes home because I am so paranoid he's going to fall asleep on the way home since he's been up since 6am and didn't get much sleep last night.
I am pissed because I don't have my car.
I am livid because the night was ruined.
I am beyond livid because I know he won't get paid for ALL his overtime.

And I most pissed because his supervisor is sitting there making decisions on if I am going to be fine or not. Who is he to judge that?

It's MY car, the supervisor doesn't get to make the decision on how late MY car is out of my use.
I am not ok.
He's all the way in boulder, he doesn't know the area all that well.

He told his supervisor that he HAD to pick me up.

It's my property, don't assume I'll just be ok with whatever happens.

Part of me wants to go apeshiznit and just be like Look, its MY car, it's MY say, if he has my car you have no business telling him I'll be fine with him with me not having it all night. Like I have no effing life and no where to go or anything to do.

And midnight, after he's been at work since 9 this morning, I think effing not.

At the same time, he is well loved by this company because he does put in hard work like this and is on his way to lots of good things and I want to be supportive then again, I would like to flip the eff out and be like THIS SHIZNIT DOES NOT FLY WITH ME.

Especially last minute, serious, it's 6 and I find out right then my night has just been bent over and effed in oblivion?

This is the downfall of sharing a car. And while yes the supervisor did not need to say that the bf realistically could not just leave work :-P
