btw, i started a meetup group

on meetup.com.
For 20something moms.
I have a lot of "mom" friends that are in their 30's and some, just some, early forties.
They're great. LOVE EM ALL 2 DEATH.
But sometimes its a bit nauseating hearing how "MUCH FUN I HAD WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE and o myyy GAWD, a kid was the last thing on my mind".
After about I dunno 48948549 times, it gets a bit irritating.
I thought starting this meetup group would be helpful in meeting other moms my age and well creating a support system for other young moms. Its been like a month since I created it and I set up a few meetups which all well, failed miserably. .
BUT tomorrow.. is our meet and greet and its here @ my house. Just a backyard playdate, snacks, pizza, painting, some arts and crafts.. Should be fun.
I'm expecting a lot of kids....Ah. just hope I got enough stuff and I hope its not awkward.
AWKWARDNESS blows.
Oh and I hope no one shows up at the house on their lunch breaks and etc.
Because I didn't tell anyone including my husband that I'm hosting a meet and greet for a group I started on the internet. . ha they don't even know that I started a group on the internet. GOD FORBID.. IT would be a sin, haha. So if no one comes home, I'll be happy.
I don't know its not a big deal to me to meet people online.
A lot of the member are in another moms group I'm in.. so its not like total craziness.
Did I really just give a bunch of people my address?
Maybe thats why I've felt completely stressed out all day.
well no. It was some douche bag I almost got into a car accident with.
Ok, I was completely in the wrong, I GOT THAT PART. I was in a turn left only lane when I realized, "shit, I gotta go straight". . So i put my right blinker on and attempt to get out of the left lane. . Douche bag slows down and "seems" to be letting me go. no. he presses on the gas. I stop .. He stops. I go. He goes. "WELL, ARE YOU GONNA LET ME GO OR NOT ASSHOLEEEE!!?!!?!?!" Robbie was in the car and trust me I feel really crappy about it. Actually this incident with this worthless douchebag has for some reason been bugging me A L L DAY long. He screams some shit at me. I hit the gas and cut him off. Ass. Then we're at a red light. He's behind me. He's cursing at me hardcore. I get the urge to put my car in reverse and gas it but being the good mother I am ; ). I say ya ya ya.. and wave my hand at him.. make a right at the next block and its over. I'm still mad though.
I hate how I let shit eat at me all the time. I'm so ridiculous.
I wish I was one of those people who couldn't careless about the petty drama that enters their lives and forget about it as easily as the situation blew up in the first place.
You know whats added to my craze today ? The fact that I only got 4 hours of sleep last night. If I don't get enough sleep it really screws up the way I think, act and feel. Well, I'm gonna try to forget about douche bag and hopefully have a good time tomorrow. Will update.
