It’s time for another edition of Tuesday Troubles. I’ve said it before, but this should be named “things i’m annoyed / confused / want to complain about”, however I couldn’t figure out how to make any of those into a snappy title, so Tuesday Troubles it is. And yes, I do realize that these aren’t true “troubles”. I know these for sure could be defined as first world problems!
~I am going to try to read a book a month(*) and am just finishing up “Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns” and need some new recommendations. I was thinking “Orange is the New Black” since I love the tv show so much, but I am open to other suggestions. I can do chic lit, easy beach reads and interesting autobiographies (nothing too educational), but no romance novels, sci-fi, true crime, thrillers, etc. Any suggestions??
~So I have this crazy bunch of itchy bites on my leg. Super itchy. It’s been driving me SO nuts that I decided to google it (late at night of course) and I determined, via Dr. Google, that I had bed bug bites. I went so far as to tell B all about this and of course, he being all realistic and was asking me all these sensible questions like “Where’d you get them?” and “How do you have them but not me?”. No idea baby, but I am certain that’s what it is. Then I continued on with the dreaded phrase “I read on the internet that…..” and I realized right then and there that there was no chance he was listening anymore. So yeah, obviously I do NOT have bed bug bites (it’s just mosquito bites) and B is wishing that he really did block WebMD on my computer years ago ;). But listen, they really itched. Please tell me someone else has a WebMD issue like this? Once I read about it, I KNOW I have it. I just know it.
~The Graze chain that had been going appears to have stalled. I believe the chain started with 3 codes, which means that 3 people I sent codes to somewhere in the chain either haven’t redeemed yet or haven’t sent back their invite codes. Come on people, send those codes back or at least let me know you aren’t going to use yours or gave your invite code to someone else (GASP) or whatever so I can go on a hunt for another code to get it moving again!
~I went through my gmail inbox has night to try and clean it up a bit and realized that I had, umm, 188 drafts. How on earth does this happen? Half of them were blank (WTF) and the rest were a mixture of actual drafts and notes I had saved for myself (guess that 2011 To-Do List isn’t getting done). My inbox is a disaster. I just need to learn to live with this mess because I don’t think it’s ever getting clean.
~Any tips for getting back into the swing of things when L starts school? I am going to be driving him, so we are all going to have to be up and out the door in the morning and umm, we are not morning people around here. Do we need to be adjusting bedtimes slowly over a period of a week or two? Because listen, L is on summer VACATION and is taking his job seriously. It’s going to be a big adjustment and I want to make it as easy as possible. Help!
That’s it from here for now! What’s troubling you today?
