about last night: viewpoints

Last night we went to see Freya perform in her school’s fall production, Viewpoints, which was a series of monologues designed to portray various viewpoints on different issues. Freya portrayed a teacher who wanted to establish a stricter dress code for students. She did a great job.

Photo credit goes to her mom. D and I had to sit further back, due to ridiculously bad traffic. I just love thunderstorms during rush hour. Oh and then my umbrella broke, so I was soaked by the time I got inside. Fun times.

After the show, D and I went out for dinner/drinks. I hadn’t eaten all day, so I was hangry. Then we went home and watched Tapestry (so good) and a documentary called Man’s First Friend, which I really enjoyed, though I did fall asleep at a certain point. It’s about the evolution of dogs. Even Bismarck was watching! Oh and my husband subscribed to a documentary channel called Curiosity (because of course he did – that’s Classic Dave ❤️).

what a week – and it’s only wednesday

My day is not off to a good start. I’m beginning to think this just isn’t going to be a good week for me.

I slept like shit again.

Woke up with a headache as a result.

Running late because it was hard to function.

In my zombie-like haze, I accidentally sprayed myself in the eye with a hair product.
OH THE BURNING. So now my eye is swollen and sore, and my make-up is all fucked up. lol lol lol

Just received more bad news about our daughter not doing her homework, and lying to us about things, and I am really fucking disappointed. Her not taking her schoolwork seriously is bad enough, but the lying?? That’s fucking unacceptable. She looked me in the face and told me that she was caught up in her other subjects, and then we found out today that she’s behind in two others.

Tonight should be a fucking blast.

Sigh.
