And....MORE

1.  So, I just wrote a post about how worthless I am (not how worthless I feel, how worthless I actually am) at work.  One of the only jobs I have that I know how to do is that when the insurance declarations for the contractors come in the mail, I open them and file them in my self-contrived filing system behind my desk.  In five months, no one's ever asked me about them.  Today they did.  Apparently there's a contractor who isn't doing a satisfactory job and to top it off, the insurance that would cover their bad job has been cancelled.  Guess who had the paperwork that said it'd been cancelled back in NOVEMBER?  You guessed it.  Me.  No one ever told me I had to pay attention to the validity of insurance, just that I had to keep a neat file of it.  My boss said, "Whoever overlooked this should be fired."  Umm...you know exactly who it was.  But please don't fire me until at least July 20th. 

2.  Pregnancy gives a whole new meaning to the term "gastrointestinal distress".  Good grief, did I have a night last night.  Let's just say that I had stuff coming out both ends from 1am to about 5am.  The entire time I was thinking about the verse in Genesis where Eve's in trouble, "Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception..."  The Hebrew translation of "sorrow" is "increase thy size and thy discomfort".  Eve, seriously?  I mean, I know you had to eat the fruit of the tree or none of us would be here but isn't there any way you could have tricked Adam into eating it first so he could deal with the multiplied sorrow and discomfort??

And just as a side note, some of the rest of that verse says, "...and thy desire shall be to thy husband...".  Naturally, Husband was in charge of the Sunday School lesson this Sunday and someone (three guesses as to who it was) in the congregation asked if that referred to libido.  Um.  Can you say that word at church?

3.  I don't understand people who have no sense of humor.  C'mon, people, life is funny.

4.  My house is a mess.  Our vacuum cleaner has been broken since at least November and even if it did work, by the time I get home from work, I'm so tired I can barely keep my eyes open.  I keep wanting to invite people over but can't because I'm so embarrassed at how dirty things are.  It's beyond nasty.  It makes me anxious.

5.  I have this great desire to make and freeze meals - so that when I feel like cooking, I can make extra for when I don't.  The only problem is, we don't have enough room in our freezer for one meal, let alone enough room to compensate for all the days when I don't want to cook.
