Tuesday randomness

When I was pregnant (and even before sometimes), most of my dreams were romantic. I rarely (never?) dreamed about actually doing “it”, but my subconscious had long, candlelit dinners and romantic walks that were definitely leading somewhere. Do you know what I dream about now? BEING ALONE. It’s not that I no longer want romance, it’s that being alone seems even more rare – something I can only get in my dreams. (Co-sleeping doesn’t help.)

Over the last week or so, I have determined any book I read during PMS gets a rating on Goodreads of one star lower than it otherwise would have been. I have no inclination to be nice or give anything the benefit of the doubt.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how badass does it make me to have burned my finger while ironing wrapping paper? (I know what you’re thinking: 11. But honestly, 10 is the most cool you can get. There is no 11.)

  1. This made me laugh out loud in my office. I had a fight with my husband last night and prefaced everything with, "Look, my period is due to start at the end of the week, so a lot of this is hormonal, BUT my complaints are valid ..." It's like clockwork. The week before my period, I am a horrible human being.

  2. I swear I have never noticed any particular PMS issues, which makes me wonder if I am just cranky and difficult by nature.

  3. Ahhhhh. Being alone.

    Yesterday I was a bit shouty and told both Ezra and Iris, "NO TOUCHING ME RIGHT NOW. SERIOUSLY. NONE."

  5. This made me laugh out loud! And then it made my husband laugh when I read him what I was laughing at.

  6. Hahah! YES! Being alone!!!! That is my dream. :) and co-sleeping definitely doesn't count. The Asian coleslaw sounds awesome! I think it was in the one with Kate Beckinsale (or the one with Blake Shelton). We love all things peanut so we liked it a lot! The coleslaw with spaghetti sounds good too!
