Friday night not drinking thread.

[riderchik]

I'd be all over the TTGP drinking thread tonight if I could.


I'm bored whatcha up to?

[lilo]

I'm the queen of lame. I am already in bed. DD is sleeping, DH is at a happy hour, and my parents are reading in the living room. I know you're jealous

I might actually be jealous, do you sleep well still?

[tngrl3]

Almost midnight here. I'm sitting on the couch with a sock full of beans on my neck attempting to stop the muscle spasm I'm currently experiencing. Because being pregnant means you can't take any good drugs. Thrilling I know.

[lilo]

Not at all, we transitioned DD to the big girl bed and she continues to get up a couple times a night. I walk her back to her bed and she will fall back to sleep, while my lovely insomnia has me wide awake. Tonight I'm exhausted though, so I'm hoping that I will basically pass out for at least a few hour stretch.

I've been playing in the Parenting drinking thread. It's my youngest's birthday party tomorrow so I've also been making cupcakes, goody bas, magic pretzel wands dipped in white chocolate, homemade bread, and way too many other things. I overplanned per usual, but it's so much harder to get it done this time since I'm exhausted.

It's my DD's party tomorrow as well, luckily this year we kept it low key. We have a Mickey theme going so tomorrow I'm going to attempt to decorate the Mickey cake I have planned. I was going to do it this evening, but cooking dinner wiped me out.

tngrl3 I hope that neck spasm goes away, that sucks ass.

theophania I wanna come to your party. How old is your youngest?

lilo I am no help. Just when I get my youngest (now 7) to sleep in his bed consistently I wake up to find him cuddled up next to me, like this morning for example.

[riderchik]

heeyyyy I tagged and it worked. Give me a cookie.

[beane]

DH and I are watching John Adams on the FireStick. I normally am not a huge fan of Laura Linney but she's great in this.

[uclameghan]

Sitting in an airport with a 4 hour delay that now puts me in at 2am completely exhausted. Much less fun than I imagined.

[riderchik]

beane isn't technology wonderful? I got a chromecast stick this week and we love it.

uclameghan That does not sound like fun. Do you travel often?

[lilo]

uclameghan I have to ask the lamest question ever, but did you go to UCLA?

theophania good luck with that. It's funny how something so small makes us so tired.

[lilo]

theophania good luck tomorrow, I think I am feeling sympathy tiredness for you.
Edit: had to fix an auto correct

@gothefawktosleep that sounds like a perfect way to end a long day.

Can you believe the Packer's won that game?
What are you doing for the game on Sunday?

It was a small miracle. I'm afraid for this next game. Unfortunately I have to work but will hopefully manage to catch some of it.

[tsmith312]

I'm up .. DD hates sleep these days so I have to go to bed early in preparation for her nightly shenanigans !

[riderchik]

We're watching Diners, Drive-ins and Dives I want all the food.

[snakefisherbub]

I'm still at work for another hour. I am so sleepy right now. I got my latest beta in today and I went up to 557! Anyway random but mh and I wanted to start watching Sherlock the other night but each episode is about an hour and a half! Wtf. We'll have to try and do it earlier in the night so I can stay awake.

[riderchik]

snakefisherbub yay for good numbers! Staying awake is hard, until you want to sleep. (At least for me)

I haven't had too much trouble sleeping yet but I wake up super freaking early.

I'm sorry you're having trouble sleeping. Hopefully it gets a little better.

[riderchik]

Ok ladies I'm going to go "tuck" my husband into bed.

I guess it depends on what you think is often - about once a month for work or an organization I volunteer for.

[mandy522]

beane What do you think of the fire stick? We have Apple TV and mostly love it, but you can't stream Prime, and I would really like to have that option.

My husband did his MPP there, DD was born at Ronald Reagan, and I worked on campus. Go Bruins!

mandy522 I really like it so far. I was skeptical at first and we will need to re-activate our Netflix account to make the most of it, but it's really easy to use and was like $20. I wouldn't get it, though, unless you have Amazon prime and/or Netflix. Also, we were going to get one for my mom, but she has a "smart TV" which basically does the same thing as the stick. So if you have that I wouldnt get it. We have a dumb TV, though, so it's been good :-)

tngrl3 I didn't know you were a packers fan! I'm pretty sure the Packers being in the NFC championship game is a solid reason to miss work.

Yep huge Packers fans. Have been for years even though I live in TN. Unfortunately the ER is open even during important football games so I have to work.

tngrl3 Um haven't you heard of football fever? It's highly contagious. You should call in. ;-)
