It was my son's 11th birthday yesterday. We planned on keeping it relatively low key with it being a school night and all, then this happened.
Cousin calls my son: "Do you have cake?
Son: "Yeah... it's my birthday. Why?"
Cousin: "Ask your mom if I can come over and eat cake."
A part of me is slightly jealous and wondering if I can behave this way. If a coworker says I'm making tacos for dinner can I ask to come to their home to eat tacos with their family? I don't have to talk to any of them. I'm just there for the tacos. Life should be simpler. Having manners is over rated. Why was I taught this behavior is rude? Is it rude?
That being said I need to get back on the wagon and skip the cake and the tacos. I think I might be done with medical procedures for a while and I should be clear to resume the gym after a 2 freaking week break. Angiograms through the femoral artery are a blast. I gained 10 lbs over 2 weeks thanks to swelling, being a potato, and cake. The good news is nothing appears to be trying to kill me from the inside. Bad news is I now have to pay for medical procedures and I can start from scratch on trying to figure out why I'm a weeble wobble. Bonus.. I can drink and blame not being able to walk a straight line on being a weeble wobble. Bonus bonus every diagnosis about things that could kill me are now moot so... yay? I think? I'm conflicted. I'm going to go put together a survey and see who on my staff is having what for dinner.
Side note, my daughter is completely horrified but the duckies now have their own tiktok. Because why not? I will post more ducky pictures. You can never have too many duckies.
