GM's thread about nothing (10 Viewers)

Updates:

As of yesterday, I am 7 months pregnant, which freaks me right the eff out for some reason. I feel like I've been pregnant for forever, but it now seems to be progressing in warp speed. In the last 2 weeks, I've had a tremendous amount of anxiety, and though I've had a really, really easy pregnancy thus far, I think a lot of this has to do with hormones. My heart is racing, I can't sleep at night, etc. I'm just thinking about how we will support this child - right now, we get by on my salary but Romo is "in between jobs" and all I can think of is how I can find a part time job to make a little bit of a cushion until he lands on his feet. Blah blah blah, but if any of you has a spouse who is doing something part time (not selling oils) that a 7- months pregnant person can do, can you send me some information?

I have Wires ready to send to T Bell, but strangely work picked up last week and I was unable to do so. It should go out Monday, without fail. What sucks is that I promised a care package to Frosty almost a year ago and I haven't delivered. So, I will give Redman instructions to mail to Frosty upon completion, and from there it can go anywhere.

Because Dollywood was cancelled, I determined that today was going to be a clean out day. We have a "rental properties" shed in our backyard that houses a lot of things like extra toilets, refigerators, etc. But it's become a catch-all for other junk as well. I want to organize that shed in order to free up space so that we can move some bins from our basement to the shed and then move things from our upstairs into our basement. You know, in order to create some kind of nursery.

And speaking of, someone asked me the other day what my "theme" for my nursery is. :shock: My initial response was something along the lines of "um, crib, dresser, dressing table?". Babies don't really need a whole lot in the first month or two, right? Right??

My crazy coworker is still crazy. She told me the other day that when evaluating a new boy (as she still calls them), she feels that if he uses marijuana, that's as big a turn off as it would be if he believed in abortion. I thought that to be a pretty fair comparison.

That's all for now. I think.
My wife spent two months hand painting Winnie the Poo murals on every wall in the nursery. For whatever reason, babies don't give a #### what their walls look like.

Baby words -

No, you don't need a theme for your nursery. :lmao:

You don't even need to call it a nursery. I remember Mrs. CC and I feeling overwhelmed like this when the Flaming Bird was on the way, especially since we lived 3000 miles away from any family. Just try to relax. It's an anxious time but it'll all work out fine. That sounds so terribly cliche, but it's totally true.

Your baby will live on your hip for the first month or two. We lived in a one-bedroom apartment when Flaming Bird was born and it was fine because he slept in a bassinet attached to our bed. They're such fragile little boogers when they're that young, and they cry, cry, cry. Letting the baby sleep in a separate room only means you have to get out of bed five times a night to check and cuddle it. If s/he's right there in the bassinet, you just roll over while still half asleep, flop out a booby or cuddle it close, and then you're both back to sleep in no time.
 
The inability to multiquote and edit posts down sucks balls too. Somebody explain to me the advantages of this upgrade?
I can't help. I've detected none and have seen several things ruined - and not just the unsure emoticon. But like some other sites I frequent, I suspect the entire update was geared toward mobile devices, and damned be the consequences to those of us who sometimes like to sit down at a computer.

 
YSR> You don't need a nursery theme. AngryWife was baby crazy and the farthest she went was having the paint & curtains match. Most of the baby stuff you get will be completely worthless and there will be a moment when you're surrounded by mountains of baby/toddler stuff and you realize that about 5% of it is necessary.

For example, JR has a train table that gets very little use, yet we have four distinct and incompatible complete sets of trains, tracks and accessories (two sizes of wooden train sets, one Lego set, one Thomas the Train set) sitting on it.
VERY :goodposting:

"Here's 156 outfits that she'll only wear once before she outgrows it". I wish I could have convinced Mrs. SLB to return half the crap we were given for store credit.

Terrible advice here (well the first paragraph was ok)

 
As previously mentioned, my neighbor got me all whiskeyed up last night. His wife, actractive lass, is a nurse and like Mrs. SLB, rarely works. She wears the pants in the family though and was giving my GB hell about buying a new truck. She was gone when I arrived and I really wasn't planning to make a night of it. When she got home she immediately offered to make me a whiskey. I hate to see women treat their husband, and to a much lesser extent a man treat his wife, all controlling like that. I thought a #### slap might be taking it a bit far so I did the next best thing and just sat my empty cup in front of her whenever I reached the bottom. She happily refilled my cup every time but Mrs. SLB got all preachy and #### about it with me.

Hhhmm. So should I be stingy with these things like a jew in a china shop or liberal like a sailor with a weave?

 
So I think I mentioned that the CEO of my largest client was ousted after a merger a couple of weeks ago. Nobody would take his office over so they made the obvious decesion to give me his furniture free of charge. Believe me, the upgrade is cool and all but I would rather him still be with the company * a million.

So my home office went from this http://imageshack.us/a/img40/5333/homeofficey.jpg

to this

Cover up that concrete for christ's sake.
We've been over this, my home office is in my unfinished basement. I wish I had 50-75k (?) laying around to finish it but I don't.
What are you, Otis?
It's about 2000 square feet. How much do you think it would cost to finish it right?
How much are milk crates and Spuds McKenzie posters going for these days?
Seriously.

Bob, you know that you don't have to build the entire dungeon all in one shot, right? Installments, buddy.
Major clamp down on the duckets right now, GB. I took all of Mrs. SLB's credit cards and ATM card away if that tells you anything.
You need a card for that???
:lmao: :lmao: I cut her off from all that too. She just made me lunch, must be getting desperate.
She also made me donuts for breakfast this morning. lol

When you go from zero to one, the old math skillz just sort of take over. Plus, I got a PM announcing the development.

We did this but didn't want to tell anyone and upset them. bag
 
Got a big green egg last weekend. Using it for the 4th time tonight. Doing ribs :thumbup:

Oh, and a girl at work that I kinda dig told me that I get to cook or her and our mutual friends in a couple weekends :optimistic:

Well, yes, he did slip into a schedule, but he'd also wake up a lot too. He was a stubborn little booger. Still is, bless him.

My heart is racing, I can't sleep at night, etc. I'm just thinking about how we will support this child - right now, we get by on my salary but Romo is "in between jobs" and all I can think of is how I can find a part time job to make a little bit of a cushion until he lands on his feet. Blah blah blah, but if any of you has a spouse who is doing something part time (not selling oils) that a 7- months pregnant person can do, can you send me some information?

I have Wires ready to send to T Bell, but strangely work picked up last week and I was unable to do so. It should go out Monday, without fail. What sucks is that I promised a care package to Frosty almost a year ago and I haven't delivered. So, I will give Redman instructions to mail to Frosty upon completion, and from there it can go anywhere.

Because Dollywood was cancelled, I determined that today was going to be a clean out day. We have a "rental properties" shed in our backyard that houses a lot of things like extra toilets, refigerators, etc. But it's become a catch-all for other junk as well. I want to organize that shed in order to free up space so that we can move some bins from our basement to the shed and then move things from our upstairs into our basement. You know, in order to create some kind of nursery.

And speaking of, someone asked me the other day what my "theme" for my nursery is. :shock: My initial response was something along the lines of "um, crib, dresser, dressing table?". Babies don't really need a whole lot in the first month or two, right? Right??

My crazy coworker is still crazy. She told me the other day that when evaluating a new boy (as she still calls them), she feels that if he uses marijuana, that's as big a turn off as it would be if he believed in abortion. I thought that to be a pretty fair comparison.

That's all for now. I think.
If Frosty really wants the WiRes, I have them all right here and he can have them any time. No worries on that.

 
YSR> You don't need a nursery theme. AngryWife was baby crazy and the farthest she went was having the paint & curtains match. Most of the baby stuff you get will be completely worthless and there will be a moment when you're surrounded by mountains of baby/toddler stuff and you realize that about 5% of it is necessary.

For example, JR has a train table that gets very little use, yet we have four distinct and incompatible complete sets of trains, tracks and accessories (two sizes of wooden train sets, one Lego set, one Thomas the Train set) sitting on it.
DO NOT GET A TRAIN TABLE UNLESS YOU HAVE A MASSIVE HOME

 
Tre: I'd feel a whole lot better about this upcoming Cuse game if we were at Max's
Agree 100%. Also, I bet on Michigan and have BRACKET IMPLICATIONS on a Wolverine win. Sorry gb. I have a dead bracket with Cuse in the finals if it's any consolation.
Should be a great game...From an objective perspective it's a great matchup...And I've always liked Michigan since Rumeal beat the Hall and of course the Fab 5 (plus Bielein is a upstate NYer)

Just nervous as #### already

 
I feel like I should care about basketball now since the local team is in the Final Four, like maybe head to a bar or something, but it's probably too early to jump on the bandwagon. Let me know if they win tonight so I can prep for a possible looting spree by buying a bunch of ORANGE! gear.

Baby words - i No, you don't need a theme for your nursery. :lmao: You don't even need to call it a nursery. I remember Mrs. CC and I feeling overwhelmed like this when the Flaming Bird was on the way, especially since we lived 3000 miles away from any family. Just try to relax. It's an anxious time but it'll all work out fine. That sounds so terribly cliche, but it's totally true. Your baby will live on your hip for the first month or two. We lived in a one-bedroom apartment when Flaming Bird was born and it was fine because he slept in a bassinet attached to our bed. They're such fragile little boogers when they're that young, and they cry, cry, cry. Letting the baby sleep in a separate room only means you have to get out of bed five times a night to check and cuddle it. If s/he's right there in the bassinet, you just roll over while still half asleep, flop out a booby or cuddle it close, and then you're both back to sleep in no time.
Terrible advice here (well the first paragraph was ok)Ok. You liked getting up out of bed a couple times a night?

Yeah......I didn't do this.

My parents stayed at our house when we were at Coshole. Upon our return Mom SLB says "wow your wife has a lot of clothes and shoes". This is from a woman that isn't exactly know for her frugality.

Most didn't...I think ours was sleeping through the night at 3 or 4 mumfs. But it's fun to scare YSR anyway, right?

Awe, sweet little YSR has enough on her plate. I don't want to scare her.

ETA: I hate you all.
:lmao: :lmao: Cal was a great sleeper until he hit 3 or so and then decided he never had to sleep again. Man those were some tough years. Dyl was on the teat so it wasn't in my jurisdiction.
My (adopted) son was on the bottle, so we had to get up at night, but he started sleeping through the night at 3 months, God bless him.
That is a big score. I at least think Cal slept well through the night. I don't know, I was usually busy sleeping.

DO NOT GET A TRAIN TABLE UNLESS YOU HAVE A MASSIVE HOME
My dad and I made a little frame out of plywood, felt, and molding to fit over a cheap coffee table. When not in use, it slid easily under a couch or bed.It looked astonishingly well-built for about $5 in material, table included, at least until we let my sister-in-law borrow it, and her ####### husband drove nails through it "because it came off the table if you lifted up on it". :trainwreck: :cantfindemoticonsoniPad: :thisupdatesuks:

You guys can save your Wires. Appreciate the thought(s) though.

 
Christ, I'd take corporate or baseball or even dry cleaning chat every day of the week before babysleep chat.
:excited:

So you guys think this Chris Davis thing is legit, or what? And what is up with Trevor Bauer?
I remember ERIC Davis. I didn't say I'd be good at baseball chat.

K4 > I agree. Babies scare me and I had one.I'm on a meat smoking binge... Got any tips from your MiM team??
Sadly I dropped out of my BBQ team for the year. Somehow I'm on a team (or was) where I have to pay a lot of money AND work. Given the impending vow of Nica poverty, I thought it was something I could stand not to spend several hundred dollars on. :( E-mailed our leader a few days ago and no response, so I guess it's the ol' don't let the door hit you on the way out.

ETA: And to actually answer the question...no tips. I never did any cooking. I burnt a freaking English muffin today; no one lets me near heat.

Sorry to hear about your money problems.

 
Cobb pwning the Indians right now. Bottom of Rays pitching rotation looking real good so far (except Hernandez)
