I'm writing because I don't want to move and I feel like complaining.

It seems easier to sit here and babble, rather than get up.

Last night the roller coaster dropped out from under DH, but it appears the ride may finally be over. He was stressing over working on a project for his ex-coworker. It was going to be the final project and from this point on, he was going to say no. The stress isn't worth it. Well after spending several weeks dealing with this, the project got pulled from him. On the plus side, he doesn't have to stress over it anymore. On the minus, he most likely will not get paid for the time he's already put into it. I'm just happy it is finally over and he can cut the cord from all ties to his past employment. It was such a toxic situation. My DH is the type of guy who wants to help out when he can, but unfortunately helping this ex-coworker brought nothing but stress. They really took advantage of my husband and I'm happy this will never happen again.

After the brakes cooled on the above situation, DH & I went out for an impromptu date to the bigger library in the next town over. It was wonderful to browse for a hour, but I made the mistake of walking past the computer area. I'm always disgusted with how many creeps are viewing porn. I'm sure the librarians are too intimidated to stop them. At least this library has separate computer sections for teens and children.

Can I complain about something else that's been offending me? Have you seen that Summer's Eve hail to the V commercial? The first time I saw it, was before the Harry Potter movie, with my teen boys. I was appalled. Click Here to see the commercial. Was this appropriate to show before a family movie? (I know HP is PG/PG13, but still.) I'm more offended by the suggestion women need to make ourselves "clean" because men are "fighting for it." A man should honor a woman for who she is, not for what her vagina smells like!

I'll stop complaining now. I'm looking forward to having a real weekend with my family. There's no where we have to be, no where we have to go. We're going to work more on getting DS15's room ready and just go with the groove and see where life takes us.

Have a great weekend!

Enjoy your weekend, Dawn! Glad you could get some of this off your chest!! I haven't seen that commercial, and never watched V so am not familiar with it at all... and sounds like I don't need to be! Glad your husband is done with the stress!!

Glad your hubby is done being so stressed. It's not worth it. I haven't seen that commercial either. My volume isn't working so I'll have to check it out later. Have a great weekend
