My 3 year old watched The Pacifier today and has decided he is going to be Vin Diesel. It's been exciting in the house this morning.

scoutradley, that's awesome! I'm getting my morning chuckle from a toddler-Vin Diesel mental image.

Hey! I have a day off today, cleaning and prepping food. I feel weirdly motivated compared to normal haha.

I am trying Skinnytaste's sushi stack recipe for my lunch today, I'm really excited. I am craving sushi!

[mflowers929]

I'm off for my hair appointment now. So excited. The salon is like my favorite place to go lol

I'm hoping today will be a lazy day. I need to put laundry away and collect dirty laundry, but I think that's it for chores today. I should probably make a grocery list for tonight. Maybe clean out the freezer?

We finished season 1 of Hap and Leonard last night and I want more! It's really good.

Update on sushi stack: I was too lazy to stack, just put in bowl. OMG. It's so good!!

Stirring it all up in a bowl was tasty without the presentation factor haha. I wish I had wasabi to make it perfect!

ETA: I also used imitation crab instead of shrimp but I'm sure the shrimp is great!

On my lunch break and counting down the hours til in out of work. I hate being at work lately. This afternoon I need to get my eyebrows threaded and finish my grocery shopping so I can make dinner.

A little while ago at work a woman told me I needed to "get on the ball" if I'm going to have kids

[ohinvrtedworld]

What do you do if your mail person leaves multiple things at your house but they are for a TOTALLY different block? Ugh our mail carrier is the worst. There's a huge package for an address a few streets down, and water bills from the city for multiple houses on that same street.

She also doesn't take my mail often when there's nothing else in the mailbox and my flag is up.

Grr, I hate that. I'm coming up to 30 and it's like all of the sudden my ovaries are going to dry up or something. Even people who have previously been supportive of me being benched are figuratively looking at their watches and tapping their toes

If it's the first time, bring it to the post office and let them know. Otherwise call and ask to speak to a manager.

Omg if there's one thing I'm tired of. How rude.

If it's a really large package I'd call the PO and have them pick it up. Was it definitely the regular mail carrier that delivered it or UPS or something? 
Also, rude that she doesn't take your mail when the flag is up. What a PITA.

People are so clueless. I have a cousin that asks if I'm pregnant or when we're having kids every time I see him. I'm betting I'm going to get asked when I see him at Easter.

It was USPS for the package. Yeah I don't feel like delivering it myself lol.

That's okay, when I went to Holland in October (we met my parents there), my mom asked me if we got pregnant on the trip what we were going to name the kid XD

Since we were over 30 when we got married, I feel like DH and I haven't fully experienced the baby pressure yet. But... with BIL/SIL who are both younger pg with #2, I'm starting to feel a little bit. It really does suck!

No pressure or anything!

You should ask him why he's so interested in your sex life.

I've finally got my MIL off about kids but she is still on us about adopting instead of doing foster care that we are currently doing. She supports the foster care but hasn't processed why going through everything for adopting isn't in our cards right now. If foster care leads to adoption we will jump at that chance.

Like she hears about something that makes the adoption be "free" so sends it to me....I look it up and within 5 minutes I can see that it is not that way at all and she doesn't get it.

[butlerfan]

Also, our office is closed on Friday-unpaid holiday so I only have to get through tomorrow and then it's the weekend for me.

I'm sorry. That's really frustrating.

Oh yum.  This is like what I used to get at a restaurant I loved but that had raw tuna.  They served it with crispy wontons.  Yumyumyum.  I'm going to have to make this!

Yeah, it probably doesn't help that DH and I have been together since we were teenagers, so people are starting to be like "uhh, ya'll ever gonna pop one out??"

[ohinvrtedworld]

I'm listening to the Britney Spears amazon station and I am wondering why I don't do that all the time. So gooddddddd lol.

I've been slowly working myself more blonde, and I love the color my stylist was able to get this time around! I think maybe once more and I'll be at the color I want =)

H had choir practice tonight for mother daughter practice which left me with kids for dinner, bath night, and bedtime. After a crazy day and many interruptions at work it carried over to home...so now kids are almost out and I can maybe eat my dinner now.
