I can't believe it's August already! Where the fuck did the summer go?!
Maybe for you folks outside of Massachusetts you had summer...for us? Not so much. I heard on the news just yesterday that this past week of sunshine has been the LONGEST stretch of sun since THE BEGINNING OF JUNE!!! Yes...JUNE!!! Well it's no wonder I've been acting like a crackhead on Prozac lately! I've never taken so many walks, just for the fun of it, in my entire life! When did walking outside in the air get to be so much fun?! Since it's been raining for two months straight! THAT'S when!
If I told you I went for a hike in the woods for over an our the other day with a couple women I'd never met before, would you believe me?! Well it's true!
After surviving my very first playgroup with the Normals...and being frightened nearly to death...I went ahead and found a group called "Bitchin' Mamas" through Meetup.com... Turned out they were having a meet-up a couple of hours later. I uploaded a picture of my babe, mapquested some directions, and made a run for it! The weather was divine and I happily limped my fat, crippled ass through the woods with a smile on my face!
But that was only after dropping my husband off at work in the pre-dawn hour of who even remembers what, meeting with the WIC folks, re-registering to vote at my current address because I am NOT taking the risk of missing this election, and accomplishing about a hundred other things at the post office... Plus the hike, and I was STILL home by 11:30AM!!!
Remember when I said I did more by 9AM than most people did all day? I wasn't shitting you!
I never would have thought that such simple things as a walk around the park, a hot cup of coffee, and finding a new way to make my baby belly laugh would make me so happy...but they do. And that's how I enjoy spending my time these days.
Therefore, I'm sure it's easy for you to imagine that I really DON'T have time for drama. I'm just too dang busy enjoying my life. And yet, there are people...miserable, miserable people...who continue to wallow in it and desperately try to spread it around and make the rest of us as miserable as they are. It's sad. It's laughable. It doesn't make me hurt, doubt myself, or question anything other than my continued tolerance of your bullshit.
I may or may not elaborate on this in the future, at least to purge myself of the past five years of your nonsense...you know who you are...but I can't promise when that will be, since frankly, I don't have the time or energy available to generate as much venom as you deserve.
There...that's about all the time I've got to spare for that shit.
Now, I'm going to gather my beautiful son out of his doorway jumper (endless amusement for me!) and head out into the sunshine!!!
