Randoms on Wednesday

[kayladawn91]

Wooooo! Halfway through the work week today! How's everyone's day going so far?

[kayladawn91]

I woke up at 6 instead of 5:45 so I was 10 minutes late leaving the house and arrived to work about 10 minutes late so there's that. I also picked a fight with H (I'll admit it, I let my bad mood and lateness cause me to be a bitch this morning but he was also being kind of a jerk). When I left the house, we were still arguing. Needless to say, it's all thrown my whole day off. I also forgot my badge and key at home so I'll have to borrow someone's key every time I need to pee today. And I forgot to temp this morning. Ughhhhh.

Eta words

Gah! I'm supposed to go to Vegas today. My original flight was scheduled to leave at 620 and land a 715. Then I would catch a connection at 830 and land in Vegas at 1030.

Except my original flight is delayed due to maintenance issues. It still hasn't taken off. I've been at the airport since 5 am.

United ended up completely rebooking me. Now I'm leaving at 830, landing at 945, catching a connection in an different city at 1040, and then finally landing in Vegas at 1330. By the time I get there, I'll be too tired from spending all day at the airport or on a plane to doing any thing.

This sucks.

[ladytiffany24]

kayladawn91, Those mornings are the WORST! FX it gets better for you.

W, Booo. Hope you feel better soon!


I slept terribly last night. And now I have a slight headache. One of those dull ones that don't go away very easily. Plus, I heard what could have possibly been a grinding type of noise when braking while turning into the parking lot at work. It was the first I'd heard it and it caught me off guard. I also had the radio up so I'm just going to listen closely when driving at lunch because I don't know if I was just hearing things or if I need to take the car in for some work on the brakes. Ugh. Terrible timing! We're trying to catch up after Christmas. DNW to pay a bunch of money to have work done on my brakes.

[RajahMD]

This guy was also supposed to be on my original flight and has been rebooked on the same flight I was. He is dead asleep and snoring so loud that I can hear him from over 25 feet away. It's practically echoing throughout the concourse. WTF dude.

[kayladawn91]

Hope you feel better soon W!

Sorry for the delay RajahMD!

Cars are the worst ladytiffany24. They always need maintenance at the worst time.

[sleepymonkey]

kayladawn91, what a sucky start to your day! Hopefully it gets better!

W, boo for having a cold and also for having to skip getting coffee so you can get medicine!

RajahMD, I'm always a little jealous of the people who can seem to fall asleep anywhere. Although I would not want to be snoring loudly in a public place.

My hands and feet are swollen today and I have a slight headache. This is very unusual for me and I'm wondering if I should be worried. My feet were swollen when I got home from work yesterday but were better by bedtime. They seemed ok when I got up this morning but my hands were swollen and I couldn't get me engagement and wedding rings on. Now my feet are swollen again. Not super noticeable but noticeable to me. I haven't had swelling issues since I was pregnant but that's definitely not it since I'm still WTO. I think I'm going to try to drink a ton of water today to see if I can flush whatever this is out of my system.

[TheEleventhHour]

Sorry about your flights RajahMD! I hate when crap like that happens when I am traveling.

kayladawn91 I hate when days start off like that. DH and I had a similar morning ... he let the stove go out which, you know, heats the house and then acted all annoyed that I was annoyed. He's like "I didn't have time to put more wood in this morning!" Well then wake me up so I can do it!!! I mean, really. So he left without saying goodbye which he knows is something I HATE. Jerk face. I hope your days gets better!

Feel better W!!!

ladytiffany24 Cars are the worst! I swear they know when it would be the worst time to break and do it then. Hopefully you don't have to spend a ton to fix the issue.

[TheEleventhHour]

Ugh I am trying to get out of the house to run errands but I can't leave until the stove gets going again and it keeps going out. I want to cry. This has seriously been the shittiest week in a long time

[ladytiffany24]

TheEleventhHour Men. *eyeroll*

[kayladawn91]

Hope your day/week gets better too TheEleventhHour!

[wannabmama]

Lots of rough mornings out there!
kayladawn91 ugh! Mornings like that are the worst...hang in there!
W oh no! I hope you can nip it in the bud. I'm just finally kicking some annoying bug that seems to have lingered forever. Feel better!
RajahMD I hope you don't have any other delays and can get a second wind when you get there! Travel delays suck.
ladytiffany24 I hope there's nothing going on with your brakes...it's always something! (And fx your headache goes away, I have a similar thing right now.)
It's my first day back in the office since before NYE. I finally at least have some work to do, but it was miserable trying to get the energy to come in. I still have a cough and sniffle, too...been going on since Christmas Eve, what's up with that?!?

Wood stoves are.the.worst. Ours never would stay lit for more than 6 hours or so so EVERY morning and EVERY evening after work we would have to relight the fucking thing. We switched it out to pellet a few years ago with a thermostat. Best decision ever since it's our main heat source.

[thechickencoop]

We're home sick today. DS spent most of the night in our bed, so I hardly slept. He was stuffed up and burning up all night. So now we're drinking hot chocolate and watching cartoons. Might run to Walmart later but...we'll see. I'm out of deodorant so that's kind of my motivation. ...

[treble]

Sorry for all the crappy starts to the day. I hope everyone's day gets better.

AFM, I can't get my body temperature up and for me that means being unable to think. I woke up cold and have been cold ever since, even though I took a shower and hot bath. I also sit next to a drafty window and it's 14 degrees here.

And the woman that I can't stand at work was out sick yesterday but she's back today to make my life a living hell.

Weeeeeeeeeee.

[WittyLittle]

I'm sorry but this is payback RajahMD, for getting that song stuck in my head Sorry though that sucks ass.
kayladawn91, what a crappy morning!!! Hopefully it gets bette,r you've had your portion of bad luck today!
sleepymonkey hope that swelling stops soon! Did you eat/drink anything new? Feeling ok otherwise? Seems weird!

[treble]

RajahMD, what are you Vegas plans? ::lives vicariously through RajahMD::

[thechickencoop]

Also, and this sounds awful, but I engaged in some major retail therapy last week and most of my stuff should be delivered today lol. So I'm kind of glad I'm home when it all gets here. Second Christmas for me haha.

[lovetruly2015]

My husband woke us up at 2:00 this morning I ended up falling back to sleep at some point. Poor guy im not sure he did. Nothing going on today I have the day off so just hanging around the house.

[sleepymonkey]

WittyLittle, I haven't eaten anything different and if anything, I have been eating better the past few days. But I have definitely been drinking a lot less water in the past few weeks so that's the only thing I can think it could be from. I feel ok other than a small headache but I do also feel kind of bloated, like my pants are a little tighter than normal.

[britta]

Good morning everyone!!

All the sorries for the rough starts. Hope Wednesday gets her shit together for everyone.

AFM, H is still suffering from Man Flu, but did go to work today because he's on call. I think, I mean I know, he's chapped about it because he made sure to be as loud as possible getting ready this morning. When I said something he was all, "I don't feel super amazing and you're saying stupid, sarcastic things." Dude. If you are sick, stay home. Stop being a martyr. They'll figure it out and someone else will be on call. If you're not going to make that choice, then suck it up and stop taking it out on the drawers in the bathroom. Oh andplusalso, I don't feel great either and neither does your 2 year old son. If you wake him up 2 hours early because being you're being an ass, I can't promise you I won't be a giant bitch later tonight. Seriously. Stahp already.

[wannabmama]

thechickencoop hope YS feels better...though snuggling and hot chocolate doesn't sound alllll bad.
britta man flu is the worst!
sleepymonkey hope the swelling goes down, I agree water is probably a good idea. Maybe a little ginger, peppermint, or lemon tea? I find sometimes that helps with bloat, too.

[rooskie]

treble - space heater? It's frowned upon at my work but I told everyone I was getting a snuggie if they took it away.

Sorry for all the husbands in "baby mode" as H calls it.

Also interested in Vegas plans here. H wants to go back in April and is already making an itenerary with shows.

And I'm pretty sure I'm going to drown in my own snot this week. I hate being sick.

[BabyStandish]

Rough morning here too. All the coffee to everyone!! I think I'll drink a whole pot today.

[badwolf]

It's wet and cold here today and it's supposed to rain cats and dogs all day. I just want to go home and get in bed under the nice warm covers and do nothing.

[requiressnacks]

Dang, you guys are having some rough days.

I hit snooze for an hour this morning. That's about all I've got.

Haha, I wish. I was at my hometown airport. Which is nice, but small. Not much going on.

I just landed in Newark. The best thing about this airport is the view as you descend. Otherwise, meh.
