I'm never sitting next to the people I sat next to this morning in the company meeting again! They talked the whole time. Some people are so impatient...
The good about having a company meeting, though, is that I get to come in and leave early. Normally, I'm here til 7pm, and on meeting days I can leave @ 5:30. Woo-hoo! Four or more people near me in Cubicle City are gone today as well, so it's a quiet day for me.
My cough and sniffing came back with a vengeance this morning. Lack of using Flonase, maybe? I forgot to use it this morning, so it's probably my fault. Thank goodness for cough drops.
My best friend (the pregnant one) called me and told me the doctors are giving her a c-section due date of August 10th. ot much time to plan a baby shower now! She didn't want one at first, but she has two boys already and is now having a girl, and I told her she at least needs to get the basics, like girl clothes, consumables, and maybe a bedroom suit. She feels weird about having a baby shower when she already has kids, but I've never even heard of that... plus, best friends don't let best friends have babies without the basic essentials AND a baby shower! The baby's name is going to be Emmaleigh Elizabeth Boling, nicknamed Emma. I think that's so cute! My dream baby name is Olivia (Color Purple fan!). I think I already wrote that once, but who cares! I don't have the baby to go along with it, though. Watch me have a boy first, since I don't really have a solid boy's name picked out. We're waiting awhile until we have a better financial situation. I get SO sick of hearing people say, "If you wait until you have the money, you'll never have kids." That really pisses me off. First of all, it's not true. I am an excellent money saver, FYI. We have an apartment currently, and I want to at least be in the process of getting a house or already have one when we start to try for kids. Plus, when I move again, it's going to be for good.
Hey, at least we have the pids to keep us company... which brings me to another point. I frequent www.petfinder.com and see all these stories about how people abandon their nanimals because they've had kids and don't want them anymore. I am not talking about the ones whose children have allergies and have no other choice (don't get me started on forced allergy situations, by the way, that would take all day and then some). I am talking about the cruel ones who dump their nanimals off at a high-kill shelter without so much as a kiss goodbye. It literally breaks my heart to see all those sad stories. Those people should be extremely ashamed of themselves and embarrassed for even showing up with an animal who still tries to kiss and lick them before people abandon them forever.
