Today is a total shit show, and it's only 9:30-ish.
I've decided that today is day 1 of giving up soda and sweetened drinks. The only exceptions will be one cup of coffee in the morning and the occasional drink on the weekends. The biggest intake of sugar I have is from liquids, it's time to change that.
*hugs* I'm trying to cut back on caffeine and the decaf coffee this morning just made me more tired. I'm going to try to taper down instead of going cold turkey. I get bad headaches if I go all or nothing.
That sounds brutal. I have the hardest time giving up caffeine, so I think if I can get down to just the one cup of coffee I'll be OK. I do need to cut back on sugar, for sure.
I bought a box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch for myself as a snack food. MH just informed me that he finished the box before I even got a chance to open it. What a jerk!
((Hugs)) becwheat and congrats on the Whole30 diet! That is awesome!!
rablissful That sounds horrible. I was just reading an article on stalking and I am so sorry you went through that. I hope you are no longer dealing with that. I am so glad you have a short week to recover from last week. Other than the smashed glass table, how did the play go?!?
Thanks! It was back when I was in middle/high school and it sucked big time Luckily I haven't been dealing with it for over a decade.
The play went really well. The kids managed to pull it off and it was fantastic. Our lead Belle (who performed Friday night) dropped out for Saturday night. That was OK with everyone because we had an understudy who was better (in most people's opinions better on stage, but about 1000x better back stage as well).

Oh I was planning on grabbing a soda at lunch. Except it's pouring down rain.
I have been drinking at least 20oz of coffee + 40 oz of diet soda per day for the last month or so. My goal is to get down to 20 oz of soda only a day by the end of this week. Small steps.
That is so nice!!!! It always sucks to come back from vacation, but at least you were missed!
Her and her husband (VP and President of the company) are now on vacation for the next two weeks. I have never had a boss that I miss when they are not around. Bring on June 1st, and not just because people act like assholes when they are gone.

My mom just emailed me to print something for her and it is a letter of reference (she is applying for new jobs right now) from a doctor in the practice she works in. He typed it out in COMIC SANS. Dying a little especially in light of the thread we had a few weeks ago about appropriate fonts to use professionally.
Agh! I HATE comic sans! Is he a pediatrician? lol.
Psychiatrist but he works specifically with young children so pretty close lol.

I haven't gotten caught up on everyone yet (yay for only being there pages so far), but does anyone get peeved when someone doesn't say "thank you" when you hold the door or elevator for them? That happened about three times today, twice with the same person. I don't do kind gestures to get recognition, but not one thank you? Come on, man!

I loathe washing my hair because it's such a time commitment, but I am counting down till I can work out so that I can use my new Organix Coconut Milk shampoo. It smells orgasmic.

I'm big on manners in general. I think it says a lot about a person.
This weekend, I held a door for a man behind me (not even an old man.. He was probably 35 and had a 7ish year old boy with him). He didn't even look up from his cell phone to notice that he was walking through a door behind held open for him. I gave him a dirty look, but of course, he didn't see that either. Cell phones make some people forget that they're human, I think.

That sounds amazing! Where did you find it?
I have to schedule my workouts around my hair washing schedule (or vice versa). My hair is thin and shows grease/sweat easily, but I don't wash it every day and definitely try to avoid twice in a day.. It's a fine line to find a mix between the two!

Omg yes. I usually say "your welcome" really loud and rudely so they can hear me. I also don't like it when I let someone over or pull out in front of me in traffic and I don't get the courtesy wave. People are rude!

^ same! I also avoid blow-drying so I prefer showering in the early evening. So particular lol.
I got that shampoo at Meijer, Target probably carries it too

Dang, ladies. I'm sorry it's such a crap day for everyone. I'm right there with you. It's 48 minutes until 5 o'clock here...not that I'm counting or anything.
