Who's that knocking at me door??

Good God, people.....

I go from Office Girl to Bag Lady in 30 seconds flat once I'm home. Goodbye slacks, hello gross, old sweats! That blouse I got compliments on all day?? It's on the FLOOR now and I'm rocking an old faded t-shirt.

Hair up... Makeup off... Black charcoal exfoliating mask all over my face....

"Mom, someone's knocking."

"Oh my God, really?? Look through the peep hole."

"I don't see anyone."

"Good, maybe they're gone."

I was putting the finishing touches on around my jawline when I heard knocking, once again.

"Oh my fucking God! Who in the hell is knocking at the door??"

I was whisper yelling down the hallway at the Spawn as she peeked through the peephole.

"It's the guy across the hall."

"Oh my God. I'm hiding in the bathroom, open the door and ask him what he wants."

Turns out, he just wanted to embarrass the hell out of me.

"Is your mom home? I want to ask her about her wifi."

"She's in the bathroom."

Ugh... He probably thinks I'm pooping.

"She doesn't want to come out because she has black stuff on her face and her sweatpants make her look like a hobo."

Yah, this was way worse than pooping.

"Well, I was wondering if maybe you guys wanted to go half and half on the internet, it's just too expensive. Have her get a hold of me."

Thankfully he left and I haven't heard from him. Not just because I look like a hobo, but, because I don't want to tell him Hell No I'm not going to share my internet. He'd probably pay for half the first month and then be a free loader.

I think I'll pass...

Let's keep that shit a bay!

I took a mini vacay from work the past 5 days.... It's been fucking amazing. No masks, no coworker drama, no headaches from not wearing my glasses!

I feel pretty good.

I've slept in, watched a million movies, and spent some time on Lake Michigan.... Exactly what I needed to get my mental shit back in order and start resembling my old self.

My pre-crisis self!

True story.... I peed in the wilderness and used a mask as toilet paper. (Probably not the best use for the mask, but damn! I felt like I was making a statement!) I walked on the beach. I watched the lightning light the sky'

While I'd love have more time off... I think I'm ready, once again, face the world.

Happy Tuesday!

Has this happened to you?

Have you ever chatted with someone who seemed normal, who seemed like a fairly decent and reputable person, but then received evidence to the contrary?

I briefly chatted with someone last night and, like always, I was pretty honest about my thoughts and opinions in regard to meeting and the site in general. I like to get to know someone first to make sure I know what I'm getting myself into.

It's been a while since I actually decided to meet anyone from here, though.... I feel like the site is in its decline and, while I really enjoy the bloggers on here, the guys who would actually intend to meet me are less than par.

I received a message from a guy who lived an hour and a half away from me, I responded by telling him he lived to far away. That developed into a conversation that led me to believe the guy was actually kind of smart, and genuinely nice.

Then I logged on this evening to find this in my inbox. Um, yah, he had mistaken our conversation for one with someone else.

I don't believe you.
9/6/2020 6:30 pm
Even if that was the case -- that you fell asleep -- you did not contact me this morning or this afternoon to apologize.

Nor have you yet explained yourself ... You certainly did get many texts from me last week and you simply ignored them. ... Don't tell me that you got some but didn't get others. That's another lie.

Same thing here on Men.Date - Gay Dating -- I wrote you and wrote you and wrote you ... and you responded only to a few and ignored the vast majority.

You must be honest and trustworthy and reliable and considerate. And so far, you're none of those.
9/6/2020 6:32 pm

Um... Yah. Sorry, wrong Chica. I've never texted you. Honest and trustworthy? You're telling off the wrong person.
9/6/2020 7:47 pm

Yep


In essence, I kind of learned that the guy who is demanding honesty and trustworthy from someone else is actually kind of a scum bag. He's certainly not being honest and trustworthy to her... He was trying like hell to get me to take the next steps and meet up with him.

Would I have been a revenge fuck?

A rebound chick?

A tool to make another woman feel inadequate and jealous....

Doesn't really matter as I had respectfully declined based on distance, but I kind of wonder, had he lived closer, would I have maybe given him a chance? He seemed like a nice, honest, intelligent guy.

Luck was on my side this time...

Yah, I faced that challenge!!

The Spawn and I, once again, trekked out and attempted the last of her school shopping.

Today? Much better...

Today we headed to TC to see what we could find over there.

It was actually a productive trip, many things found and bought today... Including some of her own age appropriate makeup.

Naturally, when we got home, she immediately wanted to try out her makeup and do a fashion show to try and decide what she wants to wear on her first day of school.

"Do my eye lashes look weird?"

"What are you talking about??"

I was expecting her to emerge with a new outfit on and a face full of her cutesy preteen makeup....

"What did you do to your eyelashes??"

Instead she came out with a bald patch on her right lash line.

"I think I trimmed to much."

"Why are you trimming your eyelashes??"

"They looked uneven."

Now, I've heard a lot of stuff in my life, but never 'my eyelashes look uneven'. So, there she sat, staring at me with the continental divide happening on her right eye.

" my God... I think I can work some magic and do a comb over...."

What mom doesn't live for the day when she can create the look of full lashes after her Spawn has hacked away at them with scissors??

With a little creative mascara action, I was able hide the divide and she was normal looking once again.

Sometimes, I can't help by shake my head and wonder.

The Jean Jacket

I took the Spawn school shopping yesterday....

Yah, that was a blast.

After 3 hours of milling about in stores with 'nothing good' we ended heading home with one pair of shoes, one pair of jeans, and a jean jacket.

"I can't believe you want a jean jacket.... When did they come back in style?"

"You wouldn't know...."

There is just nothing like being picked apart constantly by your offspring. The judgy little shit...

"I have a jean jacket hanging in my closet right now."

"No you don't."

"Yes I do."

"No you don't! I see what you wear, I know what's in your closet."

"You see what I wear work every day, do you think I WANT dress like that? I do it because I have ."

It's funny how sometimes people can only see the one side of you and it blows their mind realize, there are other facets of your being. The Spawn only ever sees the 'Working Mom' side of . She can't fathom the thought that I TOO think about trends and fashion and that I TOO want to look stylish.

I dropped the conversation until I got home and went back to my closet and pulled out not only the jean jacket, but a sage colored jacket very similar to the one she purchased on Friday, and a green hooded jacket very similar to one we looked at but she decided against buying because she didn't like the sleeves.

"I told you I had a jean jacket."

"Where did you get that?!?"

Mind Blown!

"I've had it since the last time jean jackets were popular."

"You've got the green jacket too! When did you become such a fashionista??"

"I've always been one, you just choose not to see it."

I'm looking forward to the day she realizes I'm a human being with feelings too. I know I've got a couple of years to go yet, but, I know it will come.

The difference between sons and daughters? My sons were never mean to me like she is.... They were ok with me just the way I was.

Never ending, full of outside irritants, and a stagnant corridor of hell.

Do you know what it's like help the stupidest person on earth do a somewhat challenging computer based learning course that REQUIRES you attention and listen what it's telling you do??

I do.... It's pure misery.

I called both his leader and his leader's leader tell them I was NOT going babysit this moron through his two hour training course.

Guess who ended having babysit...

I lose my patience after a while and I don't hide it. I don't actually really fucking give a care and want for people like that say something , but, they never do.

" the left, click where it says Food Safety Index"

"No, the left."

"Left."

"Opposite side of screen, LEFT."

"Food Safety Index"

"Read the words. Food Safety Index. You aren't even the left hand side of the screen. Does that say Food Safety Index?? It looks like a red X ."

Fucking MORON!

Twenty minutes later he showed back in my office.

"I'm done, but it won't print my certificate."

"Let take a look."

He was NOT done as two modules were left yet be completed.

"You aren't done, there aren't check marks by modules."

"It let print a certificate. See?!"

"You're name isn't this certific so, no, you aren't done. You have do modules before you can take the test. You can't just skip the test."

I wanted fucking kill the guy. He had proceeded argue with that he didn't feel he needed do the training as he was doing was stocking a shelf.

"What are you stocking the shelf with?"

"Food."

"So... You're working in a food department, stocking the shelf WITH food, but you don't see the necessity of doing the Food Safe Training??"

I ended telling the guy that the successful completion of his training was a requirement for his continued employment with our company. If he did not want do required training and he felt the protocols that were in place for our employees were unnecessary, he could work elsewhere. I went tell him that every employee feels this way about something within our job, not necessarily that specific training, but something, and we JUST DO IT because it's part of our job.

Thank God I've taken some vacation time and now have the next five days off....

You might be seeing my crazed photo on the 11 o'clock news, otherwise.

Happy Thursday!

1. Received a text from the Spawn. No.... Hi Mom, how are you, I miss you... After all, it has been six days since I seen her last.

Spawn - How's Tilly?
Me - A spawn of Satan. Pure evil. She needs you.
Spawn - Ha ha ha Glad to hear.

Um, yah. There's a reason I call her the Spawn.

2. I've discovered the benefit of having an ex-husband that is old enough to retire.

Retirement means free time!

Free time to take the to dentist appointments that I'd forgotten about until the day before. Fucking fantastic!! For twenty six years I've been the one who has always had to miss work to do the doctor, dentist, school thing... At long last it is his turn and I couldn't be more excited!

Bonus... He's looking forward to this stuff.

3. Apartment Complex Stud.... Not Gone!! I got up, got ready for work, headed out the door only to find....

Apartment Complex Stud's truck was parked right next to my car.

WTF?!?

I know I saw furniture and boxes out in the hallway. The mattress still had a sheet on it.

When I got home from work there was an enveloped outside his apartment that said "Please sign and return to the office ASAP".

4. People are infinitely more friendly to me when I'm carrying pet items.

Today I had to pick up more food and litter for the little scallion... I headed to the registers and prepared to wait in line when the lady in front of me offered to let me go before her.

Really??

I thanked her and we talked a little about my new kitty.... Then I realized, the same thing happened last week when I bought her litter box and cat food. People just love a pet person.... And, now I'm a pet person.

5. Dark chocolate covered sea salt caramels.... YUMMO!!!

By popular request....

Here's Tilly!





She is the absolute cutest little Tortoise Shell kitty with one grey whisker. She spends her mornings sitting on my lap swiping at my tablet as I play Candy Crush and secretly tries to sneak sips of my coffee when my head is turned. My legs are covered in kitty sized scratches and I haven't slept in almost 24 hours as she likes to spend her nights running back and forth on my bed, occasionally jumping on my head or pouncing on my chest.

As bad as she sometimes is..... She has been an absolute sweetheart in so many ways.

Like, when I come home to an empty apartment and I see her little face bouncing down the hall, stopping at my feet, looking up at me. Or even now, as she lays perched on my shoulder, purring in my ear, watching me type my little post.

And her sassy little attitude!

She's a feline version of the Spawn! This little kitty is fitting right in.....

Like a thief in the night.... Apartment Complex Stud is history.

Too bad it wasn't the Downstairs Nightmares....

I had heard commotion in the hallways last weekend and, like any good neighbor, I spied through the peep hole to see what the heck was going on.

Furniture in the hallway, black truck missing from the parking lot, trashy blonds noticeably absent from the front of the building....

Apartment Complex Stud is moving!

Well, that was quick!

Considering the guy is NEVER working and always partying in the parking lot, my guess is he could no longer his apartment and found a new place to crash. I don't think he told anyone he was moving, however, as there has been a constant stream of people seeking him .

This should be interesting.

Bad dreams...

I didn't sleep well last night.

My anxiety has been high for quite a few days now and my mind is going places it shouldn't.

Conversations from 20 years ago... Second guessing choices I'd made when my oldest was tiny.... Thinking and rethinking decisions I'm making at work....

see me, you have no idea these thoughts are plaguing my mind.

I'm good at putting on the fake front... The cheerful smile and funny disposition. a few people know when I'm truly struggling with my anxiety, they spend enough time talking me that they can see when something isn't quite right.

When I'm alone, I'm at my worst.

I was laying in bed last night, completely exhausted, and my new little kitty was playing with my toes. At some point I had fallen asleep and started dreaming about my Middle .

He was telling me good bye, and I just knew in my heart that I was never going to see him again, and I was crying so hard in the dream.

So, very, hard....

I woke up crying. The kitty was snuggled up to my neck, purring, and I was crying my eyes out just absolutely heartbroken.

I'm trying so very hard to be ok with it all, to be ok with him growing up and following his dreams and aspirations, I really am. I just feel so very sad.

I haven't felt this sad since my Grandma died.

My was busy today.... I didn't really have time to take a lunch, so, I ended up getting a small bag of pretzels of the vending machine until I could make time to eat something real.

As usual, my office was a revolving door and I finally had to just eat the pretzels while I dealt with the riff raff.

Wonder was standing across from , gossiping a little about one our coworkers, when I pulled a pretzel out of the bag that had another broken pretzel piece dangling from the side.

Not really paying attention, I went to put the pretzel in my mouth when the dangling piece fell into my shirt and landed in my cleavage crack.

Instinctively, my hand flew up to stop the pretzel from falling all the way into my shirt.

Laughing, I said "Oh crap!"

Before I knew it, Wonder had reached and grabbed the pretzel from inside my shirt and chucked it in the garbage that was sitting on the floor right behind him.

"Um, ! Probably shouldn't have done that, should I."

fairly certain you could hear the two of us laughing all the way to the front of the store.

"Probably not."

I don't think I'll ever be able to see a pretzel again without remembering the on his and how hard we laughed.

TGIF!!

The Spawn is spending the week at her Dad's house and I'm left alone to occupy myself....

Perhaps I will start to regain some self esteem!

We were headed to the post office tonight when Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' started to play.

"Really, mom??"

Of course I start to loudly sing along and do the moves while I'm driving down the road.

Who doesn't??

The song was over and I was maniacally laughing along with Vincent Price when she finally decided she could take no more.

"Mom!! Stop!! You're SO embarrassing!!"

"How am I embarrassing? Nobody can see me but you!"

"That's the worst part.... Ugh!!!!"

What a shit...

"There are two things in life that I live for. Embarrassing my offspring and singing along with the radio. Guess which one is most fun??"

"Why are you so weird..."

"Because it's fun."

In this corner.... We have Downstairs Nightmare!! Dressed in fuzzy, lavender, unicorn pajamas, Downstairs Nightmare is ready to RUMBLE with her portable backpack oxygen tanks and Marlboro Reds safely tucked away under the right shoulder strap of her tank top.

In the other corner.... We have Handicap Parking Spot Lady! Dressed in a black hoodie and several layers of hair, Handicap Parking Spot Lady is prepared to do battle! Tensions are THICK as Handicap Parking Spot Lady's steely glare rests upon Downstairs Nightmare!

Who will be our victor?? Who will end up writhing in defeat??

I had heard some commotion last night coming from the patio area of the Downstairs Nightmare's apartment. Not thinking anything of it, I'm pretty accustomed to her abrasive voice and obnoxious behavior, so I kind of just blew it off.

Then I headed to work today and noticed her red, patchwork truck parked in the handicap parking spot.

This is new....

No handicap plate. No handicap placard hanging from the rear view mirror. I've never actually seen the truck parked in the handicap parking spot before....

I have, however, seen the car with the handicap plate park in the handicap parking spot ever since the owner of the car moved into the building.

Oooh... This can't be good.

So, it turns out, my Downstairs Nightmare has decided she is entitled to the parking spot because of her breathing issues and has taken it over. Handicap Parking Spot Lady?? She's PISSED at this recent turn of events.

It is all out war!

Already tonight I've seen two arguments and a fight.

Happy Tuesday
