Mojitos. Yeah. I'm just NOW getting up. :blushing:

I can honestly say I didn't puke last night. Came thisclose, but didn't. Yay me. Guess that makes me a drunk. :blushing:

Well, if this gives you any idea how "well" last night went, I'm JUST NOW getting up. Yep, at 7:30. PM. Okay, in all fairness I got up at 1:30 and could hardly even SIT up, so I went back to bed at 2:00. PM. :blushing:

I'm effed up. And DH is making midnight stuffed peppers.

I'm on my fourth or fifth mojito. So far no arrests.

On my fourth mojito. Feelin GOOOOOOOOOD!

Then gird yer loins. Hubby's making a batch for tonight!

Nah... you're just right. Like me. I remember him too. Heck, I even remember what he LOOKS like. lol

Sheep at work. THAT'S an explanation I'd love to hear! :biggrin:

How could you? You're much too young. :biggrin:

OMG!!! Coffee. Spewed. Nose. Hurts. Laptop. Wet. :biggrin::biggrin:

Heartfire, PLEASE tell me you're going to the doctor the minute you get up! :biggrin:

Omg, I almost forgot about that guy! lol

Hey! Can we do that?!?!?! :biggrin:

Oh wow, Ebony, I saw the NSV! WTG, sista!!!!!!! :tt1:

Wow, slim, here's sending prayers and good thoughts your way. Congrats on making THIS cut... but I am sending long-term prayers for the next quarter.

That made me LOL!

WANT to exercise??? Can you bottle that stuff? You'd make a mint!

OH TAPS, how are the eyes? Getting better?

Yeah, dunno. I'm not giving him the warm fuzzies. He's VERY aware that I'm none too pleased. I even told him last night that it was amazing how he seemed to do SO well at the end of last week then all of a sudden... and yet he doesn't call the doctor. At all. Oh sure, he has an appointment tomorrow, but still... if it's STILL this bad, why not check with the doctor (who frankly seemed surprised that he was STILL in this much pain -- TWO WEEKS ago) and ask him what's up? Ugh, I know I'm going to hell for this, but my mom and I were talking yesterday about this (while he was on his way home). He has been SO babied and SO pampered by mommy dearest that that's all he seems to respond to. My mom likes to remind me how I used to do the same thing early in our relationship, and I know she's right (I said as much). But now I see a wuss who just doesn't know how to man-up, and I'm just not taking that anymore. Be a man, do your job, quicherbitchin'... I mean, I had gall bladder surgery and was hosting Thanksgiving three days later, and less than a WEEK later I was in Mexico climbing pyramids for chrissake.

Okay, EW... HOW long have they been divorced?? PJTP: My "dearest" is staying home the week. I can't help but feel it's being milked to the nth degree. He seemed to feel fine at the end of last week, then as this week neared, all of a sudden he was complaining again. I dunno...

No puppy? Gosh, Lu, you're so selfish. :thumbup: We aren't overly religious. If anything, I believe probably more than he does, but I don't attend any church nor have I for many years. Too many issues with church. Long story. But still, I believe there is a rhyme and reason to everything. There's a way things are supposed to go. His mom dogged on me early on in the marriage because we could afford for me to stay home and raise my daughter. That was OUR CHOICE. However, she had a real problem with sonny-boy being made to do all the heavy lifting. I used to say, I'd rather JUST have to go to work! Everything I did around the house was much longer than an 8-hour day anyway, and I didn't get paid! I would be willing to bet he's already thrown me under the bus and told them way back when that I was no longer working. Whether they know I'm back in school or not, I have no idea. But I also believe he does these things in case he needs to play the Mommy Sympathy Card. Regardless, I am doing now what we agreed to. I asked him before I signed up if I should stop everything right then and not attend full-time, and he said no, that I had been diligent in attending and making excellent grades. So... I'm keeping up with my end of the bargain. I can hardly wait for the mommy calls telling me what a horrible person I am for putting such pressure on him to get a job. :mad2:

oh my double gawd!!!! I'll say!!!!!!

Well, I just made a bold move. I had had some money put into a Global Allocations account in 2005 when I first started working, and though it's not a TON, it's a nice little amount that's been growing steadily. Our bank had lumped it into our joint account (hubby has investments in his name only that I don't have access to), so I just called them and asked them to pull that amount out and put it into an account in my name only. It's money that he recently asked me to tap into to help pay for some of his medical bills so that he didn't have to sell any of his stocks. I look at it as money that will be squandered away if he doesn't find a job. One day, that money may be my lifeline.

Omg, Lu, puppy pic!! TOO CUTE!!! I don't think I can come next summer... I'd be leaving with a dog. :mad2:
