This week Cleatus is off of work for the entire week. He hasn’t had a full week off in over a year, so we are enjoying every minute. Except…we’re so busy all week. We have had things going on every damn day and it continues on that way until he goes back to work Sunday evening.

Yesterday was Cindy-Lu’s pre-school open house. Yes. Pre-school. My baby is going to school. She loved it and can’t wait to go back. Tomorrow is her first REAL day of school, complete with pictures and everything. She will be wearing the most preshus outfit evah. And its not even a dress. Its only preshus because of the shoes…the boots. She’s a little cowgirl.

Today Eeyore went to the oral surgeon for a consult about a tooth. He has a baby tooth that is hanging on for dear life and his adult tooth got all impatient and went and grew in right in front of the baby tooth. The surgeon was explaining the procedure to us (nitrous! for my baby! and then a shot! in the mouth!) and said that possibly the tooth will just fall out on its own during the month wait for the actual extraction appointment. Mm. Yes, maybe. Except, well, its been like that for a YEAR. I’m just a big procastinator and didn’t want to make him go through the whole pulling of the tooth if it’d just come out on its own.

After they told me how much it would cost (only seventy five bucks after insurance! Sweet!), I told Eeyore that I could either pay the dentist the seventy five dollars or I would pay Eeyore half that to wiggle it out on his own. Well, when I told my mama the deal, she offered up twenty bucks to the cause and that got me thinking. I then called Cleatus’s mama and asked her if she’d pony up as well. Eeyore is up to seventy dollars himself if he can pull the tooth on his own. And we haven’t even hit up the great-grandparents yet.

Moving on from the tooth to exciting news later in the week…

Sometime I have to go shopping for something to wear to my brother-in-law’s wedding. I don’t wanna. I have gained forty (yes! forty!) pounds since this time last year when I quit my job. I did just start back on my weight loss pill that I had taken with success before, but um, the wedding is only a week away so I think I’ll still be fat then. However, I can tell that its working. One of the side effects that I positively HATE (actually the only side effect) is that it causes me to sweat. I don’t know why it does this. I have taken it before without that problem, but the last time I took it and this time I SWEAT like a PIG. We were standing in the very air conditioned pre-school class yesterday and I could feel trickles of sweat dripping out from my armpits and rolling down my sides. I wasn’t even HOT! I was just sweating. It was horribly disgusting. Thats me! New and improved! Now with sweat! But, I figure you hafta sweat to lose weight so maybe thats a sign that its working? Whatever. I’ll take a few months of sweaty hell to lose those forty fifty sixty pounds.

I got an email today from Sarah about the guest posting gig a few weeks back. She offered to guest post and I sent her the invite but she never recieved it. I assumed that she decided my blog was unworthy of her mad writing skillz got busy and forgot to write a guest post and she assumed, well, I don’t know what she assumed. Probably that I’m a bitch that hates her and never even sent her the invite. So, I just wanted to apologize to you guys for missing out on what was sure to have been a bad ass guest post. Damn it.
