Wednesday Happenings

Sonya · Guru

GM.

No, I have not shoplifted. I was too easily influenced by after school specials to ever think about that. :)

Sonya · Guru

how is everyone today?

I'm working from home (really, I am. Working that is. I'm sure you believed me about the location.)

Sonya · Guru

I walked 4 km this morning.

I love living in the city. Have I mentioned that?

LOVE.

Best decision we ever made.

Remind me of that when my house doesn't sell and I have to move back in. Imagine the heartbreak.

i am horrified to say i have shoplifted when i was a rotten teenager.

yesterday mikey tried to shoplift from old navy. he snuck a football into the bottom of my stroller. i didn't notice until we were in the middle of caroline's haircut. we went back to old navy and gave it back though.

i'm good today. smile

i have plans to do some cleaning & laundry. i swear we have more laundry than 10 families. it's insane!

i also plan on making my shopping lists. tomorrow is pay day so i'm going to need to grocery shop.

GM Sara. Charlie did something similar last year. I was horrified and had to walk him back to the store and apologize. I still don't think he got why it was wrong.

I'm doing laundry too.

I need to get my dryer hooked up so I have to frantically do laundry when i can put it out on the line.

That reminds me to call the electrician.

mikey has no idea. honestly. so i just brought it back and told the clerk. i didn't bother explaining it to mikey other than a simple - "that's not yours and we have to give it back to the store".

Sonya · Guru

can someone come put clothes on the line for me?

Thanks.

I'll give you coffee.

Sonya · Guru

why does this happen?

I finally booked the electrician for friday at 10 am here in the apartment.

The second I hung up, the tiler called and said he could do friday out at the house to do the finishing work.

serenity now.

now i have to be in two places at once.

awesome.

I'm sure I did some sneaking of things into the cart when my parents weren't looking, but as for shoplifting, I did still a lipstick (I remember exactly where, what brand, the color, so I must have been shizzing myself with fear of getting caught) - I was about 12, so definately old enough to know better, and just thinking I was cool or something.

Have I mentioned that I am scared to death of having a teenager girl? Because if not, I freaking am.

I stole a glue stick when I was about 10.

Yes, a glue stick.

One.

From Jo Ann Fabric.

Whoa, I am a freaking rebel. i don't even know why. They were like 10 cents.

I gave myself bangs last night. Out olf the blue. I nearly gave myself a full haircut, but found the restraint. They don't look bad at all, but I also haven't take a shower yet. We'll see.

One of my RAs offered to cut my hair. I think i might let her. I so don't care about hair. We are doing a fundraiser (penny wars) for cancer research, and I was going to let the student shave my head. I didn't care.

My husband cared. A lot.
I'm not shaving my head.

I reached my first goal weight (pre preg weight with Tristen) on Sunday.

Then gained 3 pounds, literally, overnight.

Of course my weigh in is today.

Freaking fail.

That stinks. But really, you can't legitimately gain three pounds so it must be something dumb, you know? It still stinks for weigh in but at least you know it's not real pounds.

I am finally back on the losing weight wagon again. My SIL has been losing weight and exercising and I saw her this weekend and she really motivated me to get back on it. She looks great and gave me a lot of tips and shared what she is doing - she is going to a great nutritionist so that was cool.

I'm seeing the scale go down even after only two days so I'm motivated! I'm sure you will be right back to that pre-Tristen weight after the weight in. ;)

I shoplifted a candy bar in middle school. Peer pressure! I hid it under my shirt and felt terrible about it. It was a caramello.

Juni · Guru

I am so sad today. I just found out on facebook that one of my high school friends died yesterday. She is my age, and was just this bubbly, happy, caring person and it feels so unreal. She was hit by a car in Brooklyn, right outside her apartment. Ugh. It's so weird to see her FB update and then an update from her girlfriend stating what happened. Crazy.

Good morning!

Tough question. I was arrested for shoplifting when I was 16, however, I didn't actually do it. I was with a girl who stole like 6 shirts and a bra from JC Penney, but I didn't have anything on me. Didn't stop the cops from cuffing me and taking me in. It sucked for her, since her fine was the $175 (or whatever it was) PLUS the retail cost of all the items she stole.

Funny thing about it: once we were brought into the security room, I just sat there and shrugged when the cops where talking to me, while this other girl was in hysterics. The officers said "wow, it looks like you are an old pro at this." It was my first time being arrested, but whatever. They ended up justifying my arrest as saying I was an accomplice. I had to do an at home course on why shoplifting is bad.

I was an AWFUL teenager.
