OMG.

SD12 is 13 today.
She was ALLLLLLL up in everyone's rear about it yesterday.

First thing she said when I walked into the house (late getting home) was, "Cover! You're home! It's my birthday tomorrow!" I had to literally turn away as I shut the front door (nope, she didn't even wait for that to happen...) to refrain from unleashing expletives. And said, dripping with sarcasm, "Yeah, SD....I KNOW."

And on and on. Then after dinner, during which she continued to discuss b-day and I ignored, she says, "This weekend is ALL ABOUT MEEEEEE!" Thankfully NO ONE answered her. I told DH later that bugged me and he laughed. I said, "Yeah, you think it's cute but it's really not."

At least DH didn't get her a computer she wanted (I had no idea she asked for one) thank goodness. I have no idea what he's going to get her so that'll be interesting to watch.

She was telling me that she needs a bunch of stuff from the store for her party. I re-directed her to DH for ALL of it (snacks, dinner, decorations). Reminded her I was going to make the cocoa and help her make the cake but that was it. And if she wants help with the cake that I need a full list, written on paper, of what ingredients she needs by tonight. And they have to be within reason, i.e. no 'edible glitter.' And I will not be running back to the grocery store last minute (a 40 minute total drive) to get stuff. She bakes so can do this.

She hasn't decided what to do for dinner - told her talk to DH.

I got her a nice set of new PJs she wanted and that's it. Done deal. I need to remember to pick up some wine too, because I am not setting foot out there once her friends and her start in on the insanity and I am NOT cleaning up. That should be interesting b/c she's due to go back to BMs, with a couple friends, on Sunday late morning. I will watch the fit unfold....
