Sunday, Bloody(mary) Sunday.

It started at 12:30. That is when I decided I'd studied enough to start drinking. I hadn't had a bloody mary since back when we had non-drinking supper club at the mormons' house and I decided to start predrinking (at 11 that day). It had been so long that Dan forgot how to make my drink. I sighed heavily as I reminded him how I like them. He's in the kitchen now fixing my 3rd one and I believe he's gotten the hang of it now! Delish.

We've had a really nice weekend. I decided Friday that I will take my MCP exam on Wednesday. I scheduled it and paid for it in advance so there's no backing down now. I feel 80% prepared but I'll spend the next 2 days studying in my every spare moment because once I get my MCSA (2 more tests after this one), I will get a nice big fat raise and without that raise we can't afford my beloved cleaning ladies. So I have goals. I have inspiration and I have vodka. What more can a girl need? I fret endlessly when facing a test so I'm sure my bowels will be all aquiver for the next few days and I'll probably be mean to people around me. Sorry in advance. I just don't fail well...who does, right? At the end of this rainbow is girls night out. I can.not.wait. I really really really love this night once a year. We've planned it well too, there are no last minute worries about filling the HUMMER LIMO and I've even bought my beer for the road already. Woohoo! It's gonna be so fun. While we're out, the guys will be playing at my house with whichever kids of mine are still around. I believe Dan will just have Tess and Max and Kendall, as Jake and Trevor are leaving for Bugs Island for their yearly guys fishing trip. Dan will have his hands full and that'll keep him sober enough to be my DD at the end of the night.

At this very moment it'd be hard to say who is being the baddest kid in the house. I'd vote for Tess and I'm sure Dan would vote for Jake. Let me make my case though. Just this week she's filled the toilet with beanie babies, destroyed her room within 10 minutes of Kendall cleaning it, emptied the salt and pepper shakers allover the living room floor, used the word "boogers" at least 100 times, woken up during the night 5 out of 7 days, screamed violently everytime she poops and for the 2 hours prior to pooping (she has poop issues like her mom i guess?) and is just an all around TURD. As for Jake...well, he smokes. What's one more thing to add to the "why jake's a shitwad" list. At least he's friendly and well behaved these days.

Max turns 4 months old this week. He's growing up way way way too fast. He laughs all the time and he rolls over now. I need to update his baby book which has been severely neglected so I guess this is a good place to write his milestones so I can go back and see what I've forgotten. He sleeps around 6-7 hours straight and is a really really good boy. He reminds me a lot of Trevor as a baby because he is very cuddly and easy to hold, but his personality is a lot like Jake's was when he was a baby. I can't wait to see how he turns out.

***

Diet-wise I'm doing ok. I've been trying my damndest to make healthy wise choices. I have tons of weight to shed still but I'm viewing this as a lifelong project. I have not *NOT* NOTnotnot exercised at all. I suck there.

Oh yea...right now, the joy of my life is that the writers strike is over and our shows are starting to come back on. I can't wait to finally see 24, Grey's Anatomy, Bones and House though...where the hell are they? We're also netflixing The Wire...starting with season 1. Love it.

I think that's it for now.

peas.

I've only ever had the spicey bloody mary mix on airplanes (sans alcohol)--I dunno, my mom always ordered it and I thought it was tasty--but never a real life bloody mary.

I forget what my point was, but there you go.

Also, what's the point of the celery stick anyway?
