Add me to the poison ivy club. I have it in the bend of each elbow. I had to fix a hole in the fence and washed with the tecnu soap immediately after, but apparently that wasn't good enough. This is the worst club to be in! Sorry you had to join.

Why do you all hate mayo so much? I enjoy mayo on normal things: sandwiches, in egg salad, etc. Corn is not one of these things.

That is totally a thing where I live. It's a gross thing, but definitely a thing. Well, that explains it. Although he claims it's some Mexican street corn recipe... Did he then roll it in cheese ?

It is unfortunate that I was up at 5:45. But I got to eat a brownie by myself and now I have fresh coffee and the morning chill to enjoy.
Kids better sleep in to 8.

It's unfortunate that MH woke up sick this morning, ruining my plan of getting an early morning (solo) grocery run out of the way.
Maybe don't eat mayo corn and drink three beers next time eh husband?

I got a bug bite on my butt somehow. It is hard not to scratch in public. It's an itchy one.

I think it's unfortunate that we keep changing the name of our home here. I don't really care what it is, honestly. I refer to it as the CD board- if anything. But I wouldn't be surprised if a whole new fight ensues every time people try to name something.

It's unfortunate that DH is feeling all crappy the day that the ILs have gone back to work. So he wants to "relax" at their house all day. Um. Hanging out with two tiny children in an unbabyproofed house with no toys and no cousins is not "relaxing." And if I push the issue for us to go out he will be a whiny sad sack of man-illness all day. SO MUCH FUN!!

It's unfortunate that the 4th of July took place on a Tuesday because I feel like I have no idea what day it is anymore. I'm thinking tomorrow should be Monday, not Wednesday..

Our garbage service is really flaky. They are supposed to pick up on Tuesdays but 80% of the time they don't come until Wednesday afternoon. They never run on holidays or on Tuesday if Monday is a holiday. So WTF was up with them showing up in our neighborhood picking up garbage this morning? Seriously only one person had their can out, and it wasn't me.

Add me to the grossed out by mayo on corn thing. PA has some weird food traditions haha. I seriously almost puked when I saw my aunt eating it. I don't care for mayonnaise in general, but I cannot stand to even look at it when pregnant. Ugh. So gross

I actually really like Mexican street corn, but I have never made it on the cob like that. I know it's ultimately the same, but slathering mayo on the cob seems so gross.

I found bear poop at work (I'm pretty sure). Both unfortunate and... exciting.

It is unfortunate that I offered to keep my niece while my family spends several weeks in Europe. It is especially unfortunate that we are only on day 3.

Whyyy can I never get my lawn mower to start? My neighbors are like "look at that dummy, she sets her kids up with a snack and a movie, puts on her grungy clothes, moves the cars, rolls up the hose, moves the kids toys, gets on the mower, and cranks and cranks and cranks like an idiot who can't figure out how to get it to fire!" Meanwhile they are just mowing their lawns or sitting on their back porches laughing at me.

Meanwhile they are just mowing their lawns or sitting on their back porches laughing at me. I am good at many things in this world, but two stroke engines are not among them. I'm not sure that I've successfully started one. But the existence of electrical lawn mowers and weed wackers means that I never need to keep all of my lawn mowing attempts to the backyard where my neighbors can't see me.

J didn't have a nap today. We asked him to play in his room while I got the babies fed and back to sleep. He just fell asleep at 5:45 pm. I'm not sure if I should wake him for dinner or let him sleep. I vote let him sleep. What time is bedtime usually?
