I just phoned Amanda to chat, and she starts the conversation with the following question:
“Did the crazy lady call you yet?”
“Um…what crazy lady?”
“The crazy lady who is trying to sell a bunch of DVD’s and paraphernalia.”
“No…Where would she get my number?”
“From me.”
Apparently she was a pushy salesperson, and would only get off the phone if Amanda gave her someone else’s number. I guess it was my lucky day. Well, what are friends for? I’m always available to help a friend in need.
I dislike telemarketers as much as anyone else. The next time I get a call, you can guess whose number I’m giving out. I’ll make sure it’s a good one, like the one who keeps calling to tell me I won a “free” trip 
Today is going to be a great day. Honey’s parents offered to watch the kids so we could go to K-Dot and have an evening out. We plan to go out for dinner, and get the rest of our Christmas list crossed off. Only 45 days left, folks.
They wanted to watch Emily as well as the boys, and she does take a bottle, but if I left her for that long my boobs would explode. It wouldn’t be pretty, or comfortable for that matter. So she’s coming with us, but she’s so sleepy and quiet she’s almost not even there.
In addition to Christmas shopping, I need to buy me some new tops. I’m a little bustier than I was pre-Emily. By “a little”, I mean that I actually have a chest now. I plan to enjoy it while it lasts because I know from experience that once my milk dries up, so does my cup size. As in almost non-existent. Never mind their prune-like appearance. Sigh. I need some shirts that can accommodate the ladies in their current state.
Looking forward to a night out with Matthew. We plan on leaving mid-afternoon, so maybe his parents will get to talk to the crazy lady. Here’s hoping.
What a riot…glad (step)mother-in-laws don’t count as friends!
Enjoy your cleavage; but you look great no matter what!

The crazy lady had me backed into a corner! I didn’t want to buy what she was selling and she kept pushing and pushing till I snapped and blurted out your name. I am so very sorry.

That’s funny! Thank goodness for call display – I am NOT a fan of telemarketers!
Hope you 3 had a wonderful dinner and shopping day:)

Glad you’re getting some time out and away from the everyday grind. I guess your super-organization takes the stress out of Christmas, so the 45 days isn’t even daunting, just enjoyable. I hope it’s a fabulous season for you!

I’ve been dealing with a few crazy ladies of my own. No, I do NOT want another credit card, subscribe to another magazine and YES, I am happy with all my services. It’s even better when they come to the door and STILL don’t get the hint when you tell them it’s time to feed your wailing infant. Amanda’s funny.
