Feeling A Bit Anomalous

It rained today. Rain has a funny way of turning my
productivity into inability. I tried so hard to do laundry
today, but instead of wisking through it like I usually
do, I ended up falling asleep on the couch under my
favorite Old Navy fleece blanket (it's white with multi-
colored polka dots all over it. I love it). I managed to
get 2 out of 4 loads of our laundry (Snookums and I) done,
but I still have the girls' laundry to tackle. I just
wanted to sleep.

I've been feeling weird lately. Like something is askew in
my body. I hope it doesn't have anything to do with my
reproductive system. I still have this feeling like
something is up, something is going to happen and I can't
put my finger on it. Maybe it's just the change in the
weather. Maybe it's my body coming down off of the
hormonal booster shot that is depo. Maybe I'm about to
start my period (PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE). Hopefully sooner
rather than later. Things just need to get back to normal,
because I'm feeling a bit anomalous.

Snookums has had to work late the past 2 days, so he isn't
getting home until after 6pm. I usually make dinner at
5pm, so it's putting a damper on our evening routine. So,
tonight I opted for take-out. I went to Subway and got
Snookums a footlong chicken parmesan and a 6 inch tuna.
Annie a ham round (with a peanut butter cookie for
dessert) and I got myself the grilled chicken and baby
spinach salad, which turned out to be good. I also made a
pit stop at Albertson's and got myself a watermelon bowl
(Snookums got a coupon for .55 cents off another one, I
couldn't resist) and I got Snookie a breve carmel
macchiato from Starbucks (inside of Albertson's). Gen
turned me on to them when we worked together last winter
and I turned Snookums on to them. I don't drink them now,
for obvious reasons (calorie content and sugar), but he's
been doing so good watching what he eats that I though
he'd like a treat.

I ran into Shannell (an old friend from school) on my way
home from grabbing dinner tonight and she said she was
going to call, but it's almost 10:15pm and she hasn't. I
like the girl, but she really needs to start doing what
she says she's going to do. This is at least the 4th time
since I've known her that she's not done something she
said she would. She completely lacks credibility and I'm
thinking of taking her off of Annie's emergency contacts
list, because I can't count on her. I put Gen on there, so
I don't need Shannell for that anymore. Gen is mature and
does what she says she's going to do, and the sad thing
is, they are the same age. Shannell might even be a few
months older. Before tonight, I hadn't even seen or spoken
to Shannell since Kiki was 2 months old and I took her
over to her house to visit. That was 3 months ago. Like I
said, I like her, but she lacks credibility. I hope she
eventually grows up for the sake of Malakai (her son, 8
months old). This goes deeper than just a few forgotten
phone calls, but I won't delve. They're her problems, not
mine.

I'd love to chat more, but I'm getting sleepy and Kiki
waits for no one when breakfast-time rolls around. Thank
goodness that isn't until 9am :)
