F*ck This Fridays

I’m starting a movement.  

Nope, I don’t have a button, but I think I might check in with this lovely lady to create one for me if she’s available.

It’s called F*ck This Fridays.  

                                                            flaming finger

Why?  Because I’ve pretty much have had enough outta life today and decided to dedicate a full day to my verbal diarrhea to share with all of you lovelies out there in the blogoshere.  And I’m hoping that eventually this will catch on like the std your ex-boyfriend gave you in the back of his Ford Ranger that smelled like stale cigarettes and Wendy’s fries.  

I’m hoping that eventually you will also share and commiserate because ….. Misery Loves Company.  On Fridays, if you so choose to participate, you can grab a button (when it’s created) and link back here so I can advertise you and come to your place and give you virtual hugs.  

The thing is, I don’t want to continue with my immature bitchiness all week, but rather have a concentrated version on just a single day of the week.  Like grape juice.  Should drink often for your heart, but too much will stain your teeth.

And no, I’m not angry/depressed/bitter/sad/etc because the paint fumes are making me high (although they really are), I actually have real reasons.  And speaking the fumes, as I’m typing this at nearly 1:00 am, I’m in our guest bedroom where we are repainting it.  Yet another room we are painting.  Well tonight Mr. Cat is doing all the work and I’m supervising.  HA!  He got screwed!  

But I digress…..

So please listen to me bitch and moan and groan, then share.  It could be serious, it could be frivolous.  The point is having the need to get it off your chest.  We are not here to judge, we are here to support.

Yes, I know that some of you use your whole blog to do this everyday.  Good for you.  I’m proud that you can be so free.  But I don’t, and I don’t want this to turn into my own pity party.  That somehow makes me feel even worse.  So I’m sticking to a day for a while.

So to my fellow whiners, if you were here, we’d be sitting around my kitchen table gobbling up chocolate chip cookies telling ourselves that the calories don’t count when your depressed.  See!  You are all already great friends.  *Muah*  Makes me feel better. 

So on with the show!

Well, speaking of shows…… I received the cast list and my name was on it…. just not a part that was in the freak’n show!  No, I kid you not.  I combed through my script and realized that I may have a name, but I have no lines or a solo song.  Wow.  

I’m a professional singer.  There I said it.  Granted, I’m not a very famous singer or anything, but professional nonetheless.  And I couldn’t get a role in a musical production with my church.  I may be 29 years old (dammit–only a couple of months till 30!), but I still cried and had a tantrum with my poor husband as witness.  Okay, okay it’s not as bad as it sounds.  But after all I’ve been through recently, this was really a blow to my self-esteem.  When you put yourself out there in an artistic fashion, its soul crushing when your personally rejected.

I knew Hollywood politics were rough, but apparently church politics can be even more brutal.  And since I’m new, I’m the new one to get kicked in the nuts.

So let’s recap the past few months for me, shall we????

  •  I had a miscarriage.  
  • One of my best friends and I got into a huge fight, ironically kick started by this blog, and now we are no longer speaking to each other.  
  • I had to drop out of my acting school, the one that I had waited for a year to come back too, because of my number one.
  • I haven’t lost the weight from my pregnancy.  Granted it’s not a lot, but I’m not a big person, so a lot is actually huge.  Did ya catch all that?
  • My bewbs that had grown a full cup size, are now almost back to my original concave size.
  • Ranni, our persian cat, is still pissing in places where she shouldn’t be, like on ALL.THE.FLOORS.
  • In a mere matter of weeks, I will be attending my BIL’s daughter’s first birthday party and have to endure my BIL and his wife.  This is in my opinion, the closest to hell on earth.  These people are completely self absorbed, high maintenance, ignorant and insensitive.  I’m just betting that one of those two will inadvertently open up their big mouths and say some jackass comment.  I’m gearing up for the fight (and the many posts about the past and why I have such a negative view about them.  Trust me on this.  It’s warranted).
  • My house is in a complete disaster because of all the home improvements we are doing.
  • My in laws are coming to visit in a matter of days. (actually, them visiting isn’t so bad, it’s them visiting while our house is in disarray).

I think that pretty much sums things up.  The only thing that could make it worse is if my dog died.  Thank goodness I don’t have a dog (don’t worry dog lovers, I love them too!).  And just writing that sentence just gave me a heap of guilt.  Sure, just throw that on my stack of “why I hate me today” pile.

Gah…. I’m sick of myself right now.

Off to eat a ton of chocolate.  And ice cream.  Oh yeah….

 

—–Edited——-

I forgot to mention in my shit list that I recently found out that my grandmother is dying.  All the meds that she takes for her rheumatoid arthritis has cause her kidneys to shut down almost to the point of failure.  She will have to go for dialysis three times a week, and there really is no cure.  This is of course if she decides that she will go in for treatment at all.  We are all not sure.  And my mother is about to have a complete breakdown because of it.

Now I feel like a complete self absorbed pile of crap because I forgot about something serious like THAT.  

I’m such a bitch.

i would totally be there eating cookies with you, not the ice cream though becuase for whatever reason the universe decided early in my life that is hates me and made me allergic to milk! cant even drown my sorrows in coffee flavored ice cream, and the two licks of my husbands coffee falvored ice cream lead me to believe that it would be therapeutic.

And church politics…AWFUL. disgusting really. Nepotism and hypocrisy reign supreme unfortunately in many(most?) churches. Im sorry that it has affected you, it shouldnt be that way.

Anway…I like your F this Fridays idea!! Brilliant!

[Mrs. Kitty] That truly sucks girl. A life without ice cream? Devastating.

I do really love my church, but its at times like this where I can’t stand the politics. And they are everywhere. You can’t get away from it.

F this Fridays just might be a regular thing here at Kitty’s. I’m thinking 2x a month. That’s enough bitching. :)

Comment by Bekah

This is a good idea. And wow, you really did have a shitty month.

And what does the CHURCH know anyway? OBVIOUSLY they don’t recognize great talent!

[Mrs. Kitty] Yah, this month can bite me. And thanks for the laugh and smiles. CLEARLY they don’t know what their missing! LOL.

Comment by Jen @ The Cubicle's Backporch

Ahhh, put my parents to work on your home improvements…. That solves one of your bullet points. :) If it makes you feel any better, my house is in constant complete disarray, and that’s WITHOUT any home improvement projects going on.

[Mrs. Kitty] HAHAHA. Funny thing is, that your parents WOULD work here. Then I would feel like I was running an elderly sweat shop. And your house may be in disarray (although I don’t think so), but you have 2 good excuses. Your son and your daughter. I’ve got nothing.

Comment by SIL

Just to let you know, I am willing to go eat chocolate and ice cream to show my solidarity. I got your back.

[Mrs. Kitty] Hey thanks girl. That’s a true friend. Willing to ingest massive amounts of calories and fat, all in the name of friendship. Awwwwh.

Comment by Shania

Oh SHIT yeah, I’m off to create my very own FUCK THIS FRIDAY right now and link back to you…stay tuned mama. and keep eating that ice cream…it does NOT have calories today. If I Had some in front of me, I’d be eating it right now too. Ugh

[Mrs. Kitty] This one literally had me LOL. And my home made ice cream…… was worth it. Hope you had some with you too.

Comment by April

Oh dear, that really sucks about the church thing, but from what I understand, church politics is worse than politics politics.

I’m sorry you are having a rough go of it. I already spouted off my complaints early this week and anything else I would have to complain about is political and I’m not sure if I’m ready to go there on my blog. Otherwise, I would totally be joining you this week.

[Mrs. Kitty] That’s ok. It’s like PMS. We can’t all be bitchy at the same time, otherwise the internet might blow up.

*Raises hand yelling Ooh! Oh! Oh! Me! Me! Me!*

I wanna do Fuck This Fridays! (Does it have to be only once a week? :p)

[Mrs. Kitty] Nope. But it does have a catchy ring to it for fridays. Glad you want to play along!

Comment by Honeybell

Ugh, again I’m sorry about your grandma. And you are NOT a self absorbed pile of shit. You just have a lot going on.

And that scares the shit outta me…my mom has Rheumatoid Arthritis (among a shit load of other things including Systemic Lupus and Fibromyalgia (sp?) ) and I never really stopped to think about the damage that the meds for these issues can DO to your body!! :-(

[Mrs. Kitty] Those meds are out of control strong. The doctor’s were always concerned about the effect on her liver, but NOBODY in the 20 years that she has been dealing with this has even MENTIONED her kidney. Unreal. So this has been a complete shock. I hope everything goes well for your mom, I really do.

Comment by April

Slave trade free/fair trade chocolate, I’m sure. :P

It sounds like you’ve had a horrible, horrible while lately. But, it’ll get better. Why? Because I said so.

[Mrs. Kitty] Well since your the kind of strong ass chick that gets things done, I believe you. It’ll get better. I damn well hope.

Comment by Maria

I’m sorry.

“These people are completely self absorbed, high maintenance, ignorant and insensitive. ” Screw them. I hate people that are full of themselves.

Live. Love. Laugh girlfriend. Please? Keep up your chin up. And good things will happen.

[Mrs. Kitty] Your always so sweet. And I too hate people that are full of themselves. It’s one of the worst traits you can possess in my opinion.

I sincerely believe that laughter is the best medicine. I’ll try to laugh more. :)

Comment by OHmommy

I hope the chocolate helped. I can’t imagine church politics being that tough. Sounds really cutthroat. And, I understand the hesitation about the in-laws. I feel the same about mine.

[Mrs. Kitty] That’s right! I forgot about your in-laws! How do you deal? Maybe I can learn. And church is TOTALLY cut throat. Crazy cut throat.

Comment by Anglophile Football Fanatic

I think I’d fit in perfectly at that kitchen table. I usually am not a downer either, but I mean its like one thing after another! Your bring the cookies Ill bring the milk.

[Mrs. Kitty] I’m a fat free kinda girl, hope that’s ok. I figure it’s the best to balance out the maximum caloric consumption in cookies. Yum.
