Damn Dress and other Minutiae

1. Remember the Damn Dress? Well, it is destined to be returned and holiday gifts bought in its stead. And I did, after much much much ado and trying on of clothing and messing up of hair, buy this dress for said social occasion. It is purple and purple is not my color, really. I feel akin to Barney or one of those Fruit of the Loom guys in a grape costume.
2. Thus, my Honey and I decided that we didn't really want to go after all. Actually, I feel so much relief that I am almost as glad about NOT going as I was about going in the first place. Yes, I am a fickle girl.
3. So I have decided that I will buy new bras with the money I was going to spend on the dress. I am still wearing nursing bras non-stop and they do nothing for my figure or my self esteem.
4. I have officially purged my blog of my kids' names and Honey's name as well. This makes me feel better. While some of you might know their names already because I used to post them, hopefully none of you are child molesters, stalkers, or serial killers.
5. My job makes me so paranoid. Of child molesters, stalkers, and serial killers.
6. Per Tessie's recommendation, I used this dough as a base for chocolate chip cookies. (Meaning that I just made up the dough as directed and added a bag of chips.) They are pretty darn good, if I do say so myself. Which I think I can. Since it is not really my recipe. Heh.
7. I need to go count things for inventory. I hate counting things, because I always second guess myself and count them like 3 times to make sure I come out with the same number. This leads me to the conclusion that I simply do not believe in my abilities to count to a certain undetermined number or I actually can't count. I hate math.
8. I am having a hard time feeling holiday-ish. Something keeps sucking my money away...I think it is diapers, food, and gasoline. Plus the weather is really unbearably warm. For December. It is December, right? I want to go shopping and buy stuff for me. Retail therapy.
9. Everyone is having babies. *Channeling Veruca Salt* And I want a baby nowwwww. Devan is having a baby. SaLy is having a baby. My sister-in-law just had her first this past weekend. And it was a girl. I want a girl baby....maybe. If I can just forget my pre-teen/teen self, THEN I want a girl baby. I want to buy hair bows and pretty pink things. *Sigh*
10. But I have a little guy at home. And while I might long for little snuggle bug bitsy babies, I have two boys at home at ages that I will feel nostalgic for in the near future. I keep telling myself, "Don't wish your life away." I will try hard to listen.
