Kicks, Punches, Squirms, and Jabs

Sunday was a nice spring day.  I wanted to open the windows, but it was only in the 50's (but maybe 60's, actually).  I guess since our thermostat is only set at 65, the 50's aren't that much of a jump.  Today was nice a sunny day (after the nice little snowstorm yesterday or the day before), but it wasn't very warm.  Spring is almost here!

Student loans are a pain in the butt.  We both have them, it's a ton of money, and it's going to take forever to pay them off.  However, I checked my account recently and it said that mine were all paid off.  If only that were true.  I had irrational hope for a few minutes, and then I saw that they were transferred to a different servicer.  Bah.  Speaking of money, we're both annoyed because at the hubby's job, he didn't get a promotion because they gave it to another guy.  Now, if this other guy were actually better and more qualified, then fine.  But this guy is a complete idiot that doesn't do anything, pawns his work off on others, is arrogant and unethical, and whose scores were lower than hubbo's scores.  Please tell me how this idiot without even possibly a college education is better qualified for the position than my husband, the man with  1) the MBA, 2) an excellent record at the company, and 3) better scores.  Hmm?  I say idiocy and corruption are to blame.  I try not to let it bother me, but it's just so unbelievably wrong that it makes my blood boil.

So... you know how Facebook sometimes throws suggested pages on your newsfeed?  Today, Facebook thoughtfully suggested the page "HipSlimmer" for me... a post-pregnancy hip-slimming corset.  Thanks, Facebook.  Thanks a lot.  (Please, note the sarcasm.)

And, finally, a baby update.  The car seat and stroller came in the mail today, and the UPS man was very nice.  He even carried the heavy box inside for me.  Sometimes, nice people like that can just make your day.
