In Which I Make A Homeless Man Feel Sorry For Me

Yesterday was one of THOSE days. 
It was just crappy. 
Shye had a diaper blowout that defied both gravity (it was up her back and her stomach) and baby wipes, I ended up hosing her off in the sink. 
I scrambled to get an outfit, a picture, and a blog post done.
My attempts at making some crafty-type stuff for the baby shower I'm hosting on Saturday were painful (I kept burning my fingers on the hot glue gun) and slightly disastrous. 
And then to top it all off, I was having some major sugar withdrawals. 
All I could think about was ice cream, brownies, pumkin pie, and peanut butter.
Finally I decided that enough was enough and we headed to the grocery store for some Diet Cherry Dr. Pepper, which is the only treat I allow myself on this sugar free diet. On our way home, I was so desperate that when we pulled up to the first red light I started chugging straight out of the 2 liter bottle and as I did this I happened to glance out my window just in time to see a homeless bum shaking his head in pity at me. 

There you go folks, even homeless people feel sorry for me.

You know you're jealous of the gorgeous view that I have here.
They say you should dress for the job you want, not the one you have. Apparently, today I want to be a safari guide. All I am missing is one of these, which I actually think are pretty darn cute.

My only problem is I don't think they have Diet Cherry Dr. Pepper in South Africa.

Just one more day to go!
Oh and don't forget to enter my giveway here!

  3. Love the view;-) You are so funny. Just so you know your burnt fingers are very much appreciated, I feel like I should be helping with something for the shower. I do know how you feel though b/c I burned my fingers tons of times making those balls for your shower. Dang hot glue!

  5. I've had days like that, and I don't even have diaper blowouts to blame them on.

    But I'm pretty sure I've never gotten pity from a homeless person. You win.
