Ever just want to tear your hair out, or someone else's? If you cannot restore a sense of balance, you will run away from home? Just want to say some things without the constraints of staying on topic? Well, this thread is for you! If you just need a short break to let it all hang out, be a brat, then come on, you can do it. No holding back! Go for it, you can do it.
I saw this posted on Facebook the other day, and it made me chuckle:
Bedgasm:
(noun) a feeling of euphoria experienced when climbing into bed at the end of a very long day.
I think clean sheets, dried outdoors on the line in the sunshine and fresh air may actually account for multiple bedgasms. ;-)
This all will be better soon, I am positive. We're not that old yet.
So now, not only am I dealing with the mold in the basement of the house, I am dealing with it in the van too! So unhappy with that. I cleaned everything thoroughly, vaccuumed and shampooed the carpet where the small spots of mold had grown, and will do it again after our trip tomorrow to be doubly sure it's gone. Left the windows open to air out and dry the carpet.
(sigh) Sooo tired. Still finishing up client work so that I can be gone tomorrow. No bedgasm for me for a little while yet. But the van is clean, and that's a good feeling at least!
Wonder what music we'll be listening to while drinking rum and Coca Cola
Or, maybe we will have a robot tell us: "No way are you going out dressed like that", and we can say, "thank you, Siri".
Happy Days star Erin Moran, 56, has died.
Sad to say.
If I did that, (or right now, if I could even do that) the pain would keep me in bed a week.
Today I've been back to working from bed again, legs acting up from all the driving (and salty picnic foods - gah!) and just overall feeling gross from all the activity over the past few days. I'll be ok in a couple of days. At least I can still work. :-)
I forgot what it's like to travel with kids - clean the vehicle before the trip so it's nice and clean when you go...then clean it when you come back to remove all the debris from the trip. A single day trip and the van was full of sand, popcorn and other "debris of the road". At least it didn't take me 2 hours to clean it this time.
I don't care.
In the movie, "The Never Ending Story", Morla, the ancient tortoise came up out of the mud, in the swamp, and said to Atreyu: "I....d.o.n.' t. c a r e....
It's 2am here and I have a headache from my mom's antics/texts a bit earlier. There is a 24 hour McDonald's a block away that will sell me a hot fudge sundae that will make my headache better. :) I'm going to go get one. Big Saturday night for me, whoopee!
ETA: I went for a sundae and came home with a salad. Did I lose my Brat card? That Southwest Chicken Salad they have is downright delicious and I won't get sick from sugar overload. Still... seems like a very un Bratty trade off. ;)
Do you know what happens to the corn in that Southwest salad when you eat it? You will see it whole in your toilet the next day!
And the dressing! Do you have any idea how much sugar is in that to get it to taste good? What were you thinking?
The chicken, oh, don't get me started on the chicken! Have you ever felt it before eating it? Examine it carefully-a little slimey?
How do "we" know this?
Next time, Ali, skip the salad, go right to the ice cream, get two sundaes.
Will you be ok?
But guess what my next avatar picture might be "Can you spot the corn in this photograph?"
But just here to say EVERYONE who posts here qualifies as a brat, and if you have a screen name on AC, that is your forever BRAT CARD!
It doesn't matter if you haven't had your ice cream, have a headache, or are just always joking (there was nothing under the bed last night); everyone deserves to let off steam, vent, exaggerate, or whatever.
Welcome to Caregivers Behaving Badly.! ! ! U R ALL BRATS !
Didn't you even get fries with that salad ?
I want a bowl of albondigas soup - do I need to take a shower to go and get takeout ?
It's midnight soon, and I have gone to bed.
Sad to hear of Mom2Mom's loss, but holding her up!
Anyway.............:)
