Suddenly, the deponent's attorney interrupts me to tell me that I am badgering his poor, lying client. Five years of depositions, and I've never been accused of harassing a witness.
You know what? It was totally warranted criticism. I was being totally rude for no good reason. My bad. Will a smiley face emoticon make it better? :-)
A few things that drove me to tears this week:
- Forgetting to buy milk at the store and not realizing it until 10 p.m.
- J and I buying our first present for the baby, a stuffed Pluto. I quite literally cried tears of joy in the middle of Downtown Disney. Like that's not embarrassing or anything
- The Olympic trials. Oh, the drama!
- Realizing J picked up non-organic fat free milk instead of organic 1%. Holy crap. I'm officially insane and obsessed with milk. Who am I?
- My office ceiling was leaking thanks to Tropical Storm Debby. The building's solution was to stick a bucket in the ceiling over the tiles. So now there's a bucket of stagnant rain water right over my desk. Is that really an acceptable solution?
- The women smoking immediately outside the entrance to our building. I mean, really? If you're going to smoke, you deserve to be exposed to gale force winds.
- My co-worker who told me that she sees me eating "all the time." Hello, I'm hungry. Now get out of my way so I can make my afternoon PB&J.
- Speaking of co-workers, the ones who tell me, "just you wait. It's going to get sooo much worse" and "you're gonna be huge!" Well, thanks for the encouragement, bitches.


Haha, nice, you crack me up! For the record, I think a lot of your gripes are justifiable, pregnant or not :)
ReplyDeleteWhen I was pregnant with Braeden people would hover right around the door smoking too -- even though there was a designated smoking area. I got so pissed one day, I finally shouted at them. They just looked at me like I was crazy. Thankfully, I worked at a smoke-free environment when I pregnant with Livie. Just the smell of cigarettes makes me nauseous NOW.
ReplyDeleteI definitely went through hormonal highs and lows when I was pregnant (more so with B than L). I remember telling Dan to "F*ck off" (as in screaming it) while hosting a dinner party. I was quite klassi. Thankfully, nobody held it against me. Sometimes it's nice to get a pass, because I'm sure that moment was warranted. Ha ha.
Your post made me laugh so hard!! Just blame it on the hormones and enjoy it, this is the only time you are allowed to behave like that! :)
ReplyDeletetotally crazy? hardly. totally pregnant? completely.
ReplyDeleteOn a scale of 1 to 10 I would say you're totally normal. My therapist tells me it's a strength that I'm "so in touch with my emotions." Which is just a fancy way of saying that everything makes me cry. At least you made it to 10 pm!
ReplyDeleteI am 100% with you lady! Today I am all about the anger. I am so irrationally angry at people. I know I don't have a right to be and that is life. but I am!! I can't help it. You are not crazy in the least. Ride the wave for a while, it will be worse if you don't experience the emotion, but once you do try to turn your mind to somethign else. Sounds crazy but try acting opposite
ReplyDeleteHAHA! I don't think you are crazy at all! In fact, I am pretty sure I would have blown up at all of those people and cried in those same situtations ... and I am not pregnant. Oh ... maybe I am crazy too?
ReplyDeleteHaha, I think we all have extra-snippy days. I sure do, even without pregnancy hormones!
