I had the really awesome (ok, not awesome) intentions of writing a post about our family Superbowl party, but i'm still wrapping my brains around it.
Then i thought, heck, i'ma write about lies i have told in my life.
I still am, but in the back of my mind is, "um...where's my period? when is it coming? did i count right? i'm pregnant. no i'm not. i should buy tests. NO i shouldn't, because then i GET it after i spent $18. we could make it work. my husband will leave me. just kidding, me, he won't. he'd cry though. i'd cry. why do i think i'm pregnant every single month. if i was pregnant now at this weight, sweet Jesus, the size i would be in 9 months. i wonder if i could lose 20lbs while i was pregnant. holy crap stop it. you're not. you're basically so old you're menopausal. why did my mom try to feel my stomach last night. i'm just fat. i'm supposed to start eating healthy right now, but i wish i brought those oreos home. was that a baby kicking?"
Then bills. It's payday. This also means it's pay bills day. I've been so sick over it and i keep forgetting certain ones, and i KNOW i need to get a program to pay them for me. I'm out of checks. I don't want to call and TALK to people. Eew. You can only use, "My Mom is in the hospital" so many times. Just kidding i never did that. Ok, i did. But they don't take, "i forgot" well. And the truth is, i either forget, or i'm so-so-so freakout sick over just looking at things that i hide them. I KNOW. Welcome to my brain.
This, of course, leads to me looking for a new house on Realtor.com.
The smell of baby wipes is nauseating. DOES THAT MEAN I'M KNOCKED UP?? No-no, shhhh, they just smell horrible. Calm down. Calm down.
As you can see, i'm a mess. So why not take this moment to take a walk down memory lane of lies i have told in my life. This is so dumb. Whatever, right? It's Monday.
1.) I was a lifeguard.
I was not a lifeguard. I worked at a lake. I worked in the snack bar. And i can whip you up one of the best cheese steaks and cheese fries you've ever had.
2.) I was asked to be a model.
No, i wasn't. Well, once i had a very -VERY creepy man ask me if he could drawl me because he did sci-fi cartoon strips. But i told someone (ok a boyfriend) that i was asked to be a model. Now, this was only because he wouldn't stop talking about some girl at his school who was one. I had to.
3.) My kids had chicken pox.
Nope. I told this to our Dentist because i actually forgot about an appointment, and i panicked. They fired me and sent me a list of other Dentists, but not because of that one. Oh Susanna. You are a mess.
4.) I weighed 125.
Hi. Unless i was 14 at the time, i've probably never weighed that. I wish i did. So, Skii rental place and teen boy who i couldn't tell the truth to because it would have made part of my soul die, NO I'M NOT and NEVER have been, and if i fell and those skiis didn't pop off and i died, it would have been my fault.
5.) I floss daily.
Do i even need to go into this one?
6.) Nooo, honey, that's just a letter from _____ company to tell us we're awesome, don't open it, i'll look at it Monday.
It's not a letter saying how awesome we are. I need to fix that really quick.
So, this is it for the day. Just ridiculous. Now i'm getting back to school for the day with the kids, writing up the grocery list, and waking up #1 to do her school...or...getting more coffee and trying to find a new house.



I have that monthly "Oh God please don't let me be pregnant even though I'm on the pill but I *might* be nauseous and was that a kick" panic as well because I really cannot handle the two children I already have. Adding one more cherub to the mix will push me right off the cliff of sanity. And, trust me, getting a new house just adds to the nightmare. As we are in the middle of looking.
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha! It seems like we are all inthe same boat with the pregnancy scares once a month:D I can't take it! Yet i am totally not ready for my husband to get a vasectomy. Lordy. And good luck with the house hunt:) We couldn't sell if our lives depended on it, our area is so bad now. Sad:(
DeleteI do the pregnant thing too. Haha I will be sitting there do my boons feel tender, I look all strange feeling myself up every month. I want to be pregnant again though so mines more excitement but I do always think I am pregnant. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm dying! Seriously why does it have to be like this? EVERY DANG MONTH!
DeleteJust an FYI in case you get far enough for the "I need to take a pregnancy test", the ones at the Dollar Store are just as good as the expensive ones - in fact my Dr.'s office uses the Dollar Store ones.
ReplyDeleteI have already spent $24 on them. All negative. But i'm still waiting. Not patiently. Is that cramps?? What's happening...aaaah! Thanks for the info girl:)
DeleteLOL!!!!! This is hysterical!!! I love all of them.
ReplyDeleteThank you! What is my problem?? SERIOUSLY WHAT IS MY PROBLEM??
DeleteOMG you are the only blogger who actually makes me lol.
ReplyDeleteLiterally.
I want a cheese steak btw when I someday visit you.
And I have lied sooo many times to dentists.
The best one?
We are moving out of state.
I hope I don't run into my hygenist at Jewel someday.
Love you as always!
Why is it SO hard to go to the dentist? And now i need to find a new one that works on kids...and i need a Veterinarian for the dumb dog. And i still didn't pay bills yet. Crap.
DeleteAll very, very valid reasons!! :D Loved them all!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so ridiculous. I'm prett sure i need medication. :D
DeleteHahahahah
ReplyDeleteHow nice is it to know that we are al lnot alone in this messed up, completely anxiety causing, bill paying, no money having, world.
Every single time. You make me smile.
I just spent the day at the dermatologist with the boys who both obviously have a wart problem. And that problem was about to cost me around $350 minus the co pay....until I almost passed out right there in there neutral, calming waiting room.
She talked me off the ledge and told me I could just pay the co pay. Thanks..... :/ until next time that is when they gouge me with the balance.
Oh, and my daughter now has Strep.
And I am going to a parent mtg tonight for my soon to be 9th grader.
ugh
Oh craaap. You are having a MONDAY. Barf. I hope the meeting goes well at least! I feel for you on the copays and medical stuff- we totally got turned over to collections because of stupid medical bills and insurance saying things were covered and not to pay it! Awesome. I hope your daughter is better soon- i get strep a few times a year:/ Tomorrow has to be better!
DeleteOh my gosh! Number 6...I do that like 5 times a week. haha
ReplyDeleteIt's probably a sign we shouldn't be in charge. Or that we should go shopping...
DeleteOMG! This is the funniest post EVER! This is my first time visiting your blog and I'm about to kick myself for missing out! I'll definitely be a regular from this point onwards!
ReplyDeleteHah, this makes me feel better about any white lies I've ever told!
