Fight:
Baboo and I got into a big ole discussiony fight last night. And the atmosphere was weird. And I really just wanted to do the whole evening over. I’m hoping we got some stuff out. I know that "fights" are a necessary evil. If you don’t challenge each other and hash things out, you end up being weak overall because you are never tested, you never have a chance to grow and get past things.
So yeah.
but boo.
My whole night was different from what I thought.
Emotional Eating:
We got home late and I ate chicken mcnuggets and frozen pizza … in excess. So not good for my diet. I should have just had one or the other, but I wanted both. And instead of just eating a few nuggets, I had too many. I ended up feeling sick and terrible and like I wanted to go jump into traffic.
Terrible.
so yeah.
Life isn’t fair:
And then we watched some tv and I had to lecture Jonathon about how life ISN’T fair (he started crying and telling me that life HAS TO BE FAIR… and I had to tell him differently. *sigh*).
Bootleg Insomina:
I went to sleep and didn’t dream and woke up at my normal 2:00 AM, 3:00 AM, 4:00 AM thing.
Yes, after 2, I can only sleep in hour increments. At 2 I get up to pee. At 3 I’m usually having a weird dream. At 4 I’m scared I over slept. And when 5 finally rolls around (when I actually do have to be up) I’m exhausted and grouchy and weird parts of my body hurt and it’s just a damn mess.
Hair Color Chat:
My hair is terrible. I found the color I’m going to dye it though. I’m considering getting two boxes. I always have a hard time making one box work for all my hair and it’s "patchy". I bet if I got two, I’d have plenty and it wouldn’t look so weird.
Yeah, I’m gonna get two.
THRILLING!!!
Misleading Ending
Anyhow, this is "short". I have to get to work (I’ve got training and meetings and more training today. I’ll be busy and probably won’t have a lot of tiem to update zombie love or anything else. but I will send out my survey emails to those who want to get my stories in the mail. If you don’t respond to them, I’m not emailing you SHIZ. Ha ha… Well, I could email you some shiz, but you probably won’t like it as much as my stories…

Speaking of my stories. If anyone is curious. I will be (attempting to) sending out a chapter a week for each already completed or mostly completed story. I am going back over things and editing. Trigger is getting an almost 100% overhaul. So if you think you know that story, you might be in for some surprises! The same may very well be true of Petit Noir.
I was thinking about it last night and I was like "I really wrote those stories FAST… and I missed so many details."
It’s almost like Nanowrimo allowed me to build a foundation and a frame for a house… but it needs walls and carpeting and paint and furniture and a damn family to move in to make it complete.
So I’m going to be doing that now.
I might, by all means, miss out on the window of opportunity to submit to this publishing company. They don’t have a time limit set up, but who knows. But what I will have is some really polished work when I’m done.
As I said, I’m really not going to ask for feedback or for people to read it by a certain time. If you want to give me feedback, by all means! Otherwise, it’s not necessary. What I do want is to share my stories with those who want to read them. And maybe one day I’ll be able to share them with the world.
And you’ll all be in the club who got to see them first.
Oh aren’t you SPESHUL.
Have a cookie!
Real Ending
Ok, didn’t I say this was gonna be short?!
Tangent woman! That’s me!
Happy Thursday ya’ll.
It’s a Thurfriday for me.
I’m happy.
(There is this Onstar commercial where the operator is telling this distraught woman who locked her kid in the car to "stop freaking out"… uhhh, why would they want to put that as their ad? It sounded rude to me. Don’t tell me to not freak out. My kid is locked in a car!!!!!)

I hate fights. Aleyn and I have had a couple and they have sucked every time. The worst though is trying to get normal with each other after it. Aleyn seems to go into normal mode really quick and I take a lot longer. Usually a couple days before I feel ok again. It always sucks when you have to tell a child that life really blows sometimes. I do want you to e-mail me stuff, but not shiz, unless it’s funny shiz. You’ve still got my e-mail right? I like surveys, I’ll do a damn survey! I sleep exactly like you do and I HATE IT! I just want to sleep straight through the night!

Sucks you guys had to fight, but I hope all is well now. I’m sure it will be. You guys seem to be a strong couple. 🙂

My hubby hates any kind of confrontation. I’m actually upset that I’ve gotten rusty. We’ve been doing this weird negotiating thing lately… I guess it’s a good thing, but it’s weird for me. Boo for emotional eating and crappy sleep. I’ll get to the email lists as soon as I can. *duck and cover* I promise!!

I, honestly, wouldn’t mind having my kid locked in a car. No more leashes, rubber hoses, pillow cases filled with soap…….cages in the closet! Yes, a car isn’t half bad. ‘course it couldn’t be my car cause I can’t risk having them mess up the interior. Maybe that’s why I’m not a parent? Who knows

Yay Thurfriday! 🙂 I’m sorry you and Baboo had a fight lastnight, but you’re right. Sometimes it’s for the best to hash things out. I’m sure things will be okay, whatever the situation was. <3
Warning Comment
Ugh, I hate fighting. I hope everything got out in the open to be fixed, though. If so, hurray for an evening of being uncomfortable. Cant wait to see the hair color.
Warning Comment
I don’t agree about the fighting though a lot of people think that. You do have to get stuff out, communicate. If fighting is the only way someone knows how, I guess that works. But you don’t have to fight to disagree, test things, etc.
Warning Comment
Yeah, that would be nice.

“I know that “fights” are a necessary evil. If you don’t challenge each other and hash things out, you end up being weak overall because you are never tested, you never have a chance to grow and get past things.” Hmmm, I like that. It’s so true.
