THE BLOG
I’m currently procrastinating getting ready for work, [insert shock here], so I thought I’d follow up yesterday’s post with things I have tried to rectified my current “ball dropping” situation. 1. Run around waving my arms in a clockwise direction 2. Ate cookies for breakfast 3. Blogged 4. Emptied out the entire Tupperware cabinet and...
I am currently dropping the ball in my life. The following is a list of things currently wrong at DRY Ink headquarters, (divided into categories for your viewing pleasure): Missing: 2 library books a 1st grade reader 1 ballet leg warmer 1 camouflaged belt 1 orange little league bat Behind on: uploading files for work...
Honey, give yourself a freaking break. You keep all your own balls in the air, plus everyone else’s. You’re bound to drop one from time to time. Contrary to popular belief, you’re only human. It’s OKAY!!!
P.S. No dirty jokes about balls in the air allowed.
I feel your pain, Eirka, it’s the same story around here.
Jeez Rachel, you take all the fun out of life! *wink*
…balls in the air…hehehe
As long as you’re not ‘dropping balls’ as in growing some I think you’re okay. While we’re on the subject of dropping- where do YOU need to drop 5 lbs? I mean really! I do not look like you do and I’ve only had 1 kid! As for losing stuff around the house, I am convinced that every house has a black hole- either that or little people who come out at night and steal stuff but that’s creepy. Either way, like Rachel said- you’re only human (except for that decorating-goddess blood that is running through your veins) so take it easy on yourself. Love the mudroom by the way. I can tell that it makes excellent mud.
I do the stress in the shoulders thing too. It’s a bitch. Also the unexplainable breakouts. Grr.
Y’all are all too sweet, thanks, and welcome Leaf nice to hear from a sister in stress.
Work is currently trying to eat my face off like one of those newly hatched fetuses from the Alien movies. Okay, so maybe that isn’t entirely accurate. I guess it’s more like a gremlin. Work is normally all cute and we have a good time together, but lately I just haven’t been in the mood,...
Today I called into work to stand my boss up for supervision and staffing, only to find out he had already done it to me. The nevre! Annual leave my ass.
HEE! You were swooped!
Overtime!?! Are you trying to take years off my life? I may not survive this one. *ETA: DOUBLE OVERTIME?! I’ve seen this one before and it does not end well. ** Triple OVERTIME!?! I can’t breath. ***Yep, told ya I’d seen this one. Excuse me while I go resuscitate Jeff. And cry. Don’t forget lots...
*sniff sniff* I’m still crying!
Sniff, sniff. I’m really sad.
Careful there. With such proactive steps, I may have to recruit you to come work with me in state government.
Okay, here’s my professional opinion…STOP with the new projects (like the tupperware cabinet) and work on the things you’ve already started. Work would maybe be a good idea. But it’s all relative.
haha Sounds just like my day!
I love that you posted this. Seriously. Makes us all go, “Yup! Been there!” and then we can laugh over wine. Oh wait, also, have a glass of wine. 😉
go procrastination! And I agree with Rachel… Finish your preexisting list before you start heaping more on there…
Lets make it interesting! Forget about finishing things. Lets start organizing winter/spring/summer clothes and then stop just after you’ve got everything in piles…
I just stumbled into your blog via dooce and I’m loving it! arms flying around in a clockwise motion…that’s great. Good stuff!!
