Cravings…

Tuesday, September 30th, 2008

I think I’m going to explode if I don’t satisfy my craving soon.

No, not a craving for chocolate or ice cream.  My raging craving to SHOP!

I usually go through this every month.  Back in the day… pre kid, I would blow a couple hundred bucks no biggie.  Now I have to be responsible since my money is being stretched thin in a few more directions than it used to be.

When I get my “monthly urge”  I stand in my closet every morning depressed b/c I have nothing to wear.  It’s all been worn before, over and over again. I know I’m sounding a bit snobby like Paris Hilton, but I think it’s a girl thing right?

I’m in a clothing funk!  I need cute ankle boots, I need a cute dress I can wear with hot leggings, I need more cute hats, I need to break away, by myself and hit the stores like Danger hits the streets in Grand Theft Auto. Get out of my way!

My fear is that I’ll go too crazy and then feel depressed b/c I spent waaaay too much.

The big debate in my house

Wednesday, September 17th, 2008

It’s only natural for little girls to play dress up.  I remember clunking around in mom’s heels, draping her scarves around my shoulder and putting on her makeup.  It was fun.  Apparently, Danger thinks that will lead to bad things and bad habits.

Like I did as a kid, Leah loves to wear my shoes around the house and put on my lip gloss.  The other night she took my lip gloss out of my makeup bag and put it in her bathroom saying that she wanted to put it on before she went to school in the morning.  It’s a very light pink gloss…I didn’t think anything of it.

Oh Danger wasn’t happy that I would encourage such behavior.  Am I missing something or is it just because he’s a man?

Women Against Fantasy Sports

Danger himself would admit that he has a serious addiction to his fantasy team. At the breakfast table on a Sunday morning he’s on the computer making his trades. I pretty much write him off on Sundays, he just hangs out in “Man Town” with the guys from kickoff at 1pm-? (after I go to bed for the night)
It’s all good though, I go to mom’s house and eat a delicious dinner.

Yes, Danger is all about his fantasy football team, but I don’t think it’s that bad where I need to join this group…but it is pretty funny.

My weekend…

Danger and are off to Turning Stone today for my old college suitemate’s wedding. I love weddings but I always cry no matter how close I am with the bride. What a great place to have a wedding, I’m thinking the reception will not last long, at least many of the guys will excuse themselves early.

Danger said he’s taking money out of his personal account b/c he doesn’t want to “bankrupt” the family…Oh great.

Sunday is the big day…Danger will for the 1st time run the full Rochester Marathon.  I am so proud to say that!  He’s awesome.  I don’t think I would have the willpower to run 26miles straight.  I just hope it doesn’t downpour.
Either way Leah and I are going to try and follow him during the route.

I hope Leah and her pink pom poms won’t distract him “Go Daddy Go!”

Yes I will probably cry when he crosses the finish line
