better mood



(FYI... this is NOT an update to the Bowel Crisis 2006.... unfortunately, my colon is still full of rock-hard pebbly shit, and is not making any overtures of a grand exit any time soon. Though thanks for the suggestions. I'm thinking of hitting up Starbucks for a double espresso prune latte??)


This post is actually about me getting out of the funk I've been in.


You may not know this, but I've been in a piss-poor mood this week. Rotten. Spoiled. just plain FUGLY.


I attribute it to hormones, to Troy being gone, to having a way-lame mother's day, and just a shit week on top of it. I can't shit, I've been crampy, and I've been trying to clean my house and paint and get shit done before troy gets home, but by the time Rhena goes to bed, I'm too tired to do too much, and damn all those season finales that are JUST so much more interesting than scrubbing my floors! (and while I'm at it... can I get a HOO-fucking-RAY that DENNY is now finally DEAD???)


ok. so me. pissy.


but today I'm better.


Today Troy comes home, and he's bringing with him some sort of surprise for me. He told me what STORE he bought the presents in, but not what all he got me. Not the same as a box of See's candies.. but I'm thinking they'll be better for my figure, anyway.

so knowing that there's an end in sight to the single-parent days... I'm in a better mood. YES... he'll have to go back for probably another THREE weeks next time... but the point is that he's on his way home today.

And really... other than the standard inability to take a good crap... what do I have to bitch about? some women have their husbands gone for MONTHS at a time.

and BOOGIE! I have BOOGIE! We went to a local farm the other day and picked strawberries... and while I have to say that the day itself was fun, and the berries were delicious... NOTHING makes me smile more than looking at some of the pictures I took that day.

so my dear readers... on this fabulous friday... I inform you that I am hereby removing the stick from my ass. I ALSO hope to soon be removing the SHIT from my ass... but for now... stickage is gone.


If you have a stick troubling you or know someone with a stick problem... might I suggest you direct them to the pictures below??? They really work wonders.


Happy friday, Gang!

DQ does it for me everytime (I was just kidding about the Spam). But I understand if you're too let down by the Golden Arches experience to try any more fast food remedies. :D

BTW, Rhena is SO freaking adorable!!

Unknown said...

IT ATE MY POST!!

But the important part of it was...RHENA IS SO CUTE!!

Unknown said...

Or...maybe it didn't. Doh.

Me said...

I love those pics! Too cute!

Your mood sounds a lot like mine this week! Let's go get some drinks!!!!!

Hope things get better with Troy coming home!

She is just a DOLL!! Glad you got your stick out of your ass, too bad nothing else will come out. Hehe...
I know how you feel about the hubby being gone, it sucks. I went crazy while mine was away. There is just WAY to much stuff to do and not nearly enough time. I am not looking forward to the next deployment...
If I were you I would go for something different at Starbucks, Prune Espresso sounds a bit disgusting... I would also leave the Boogie with Troy once he gets settled and get a Pedi...Put your feet up and relax, you deserve it... believe me, I know!! :)

Hmmm poop tricks - how about decaf coffee? i know you don't like to get jacked up on caffeine but maybe some decaf would help? OR eat a couple apples? Frosted Mini Wheats gets me on the can within an HOUR.

I'm glad you man is coming home. Bearing gifts for the love of God! He better or I'll ship a can of whoop ass down there.

MWAH! (Oh and I already told you this, but your daughter is beautiful...like a delicate flower!)

OK, Rhena is soo adorable! The hat and shirt are just too cute!

I suggest a bran muffin and a cup of coffee. ;)

Glad that Troy gets home today and I'm sure the gifts will be fabulous! Even if it's not See's!

Have a good weekend!

Good luck on the poo situation. Ugh.
