It’s snowing again and I was in complete denial about the forecast, again.
Apparently grocery shopping before snow is not as stupid as I previously thought.
I’ve got one “ham” and cheese hot pocket (I’m not a picky eater, but mystery meat is strictly for children under 12), hummus (no bread or veggies to dip in it), [...]

My efforts to avoid laundry have once again paid off tremendously. I love the internet with all of my heart.

The Brady family has apparently not uploaded a family tree on MyHeritage.com. Anyone who knows anything about the most awesome daytime soap ever, Days of Our Lives, knows that the first pic is NOT Krista Allen [...]

I’m a little disappointed in myself for not posting yesterday. I was so tired, and totally forgot.
I’m not beating myself up though.
I was totally right when I said how awesome 2010 was going to be.  I have gone through some kind of weird miraculous transformation over the last three weeks.
I’ve been super busy. So busy [...]

I have said that I always take full responsibility for my actions.
Tonight, I’m taking it back.
If I get new windshield wiper blades because the one on my passenger side falls off in the middle of a rainstorm, only to have the brand new drivers side blade fall off ten minutes after being installed, during the [...]

I feel like I’m totally cheating on this NaBloPoMo, but I will not fail.
I’m also not making any more commitments, except that one, I guess.
Another repost (this one totally fits because it seems that working a few more hours a week is also an excellent reason to avoid housework)….

I’m worn out and just in case you are one of the many people I was supposed to call tonight, here is a repost that will make you think we were actually on the phone….

I don’t have much time because I have to get back to staring at the sea monkey tank Wednesday got for Christmas.
Really! I have been deprived of them my whole life, and we were sure to follow the instructions to the letter. It’s abnormally exciting for me.
Before I go wanted to mention what a great [...]

Since we’ve been go, go, going for the past two months, I decided that today we would just stay home and play all day.
MC Bizzy J has been racing cars  and building with Lincoln Logs.
Wednesday, aka Lady Dementia, has also been doing some building….

In case your child is normal and you can’t figure out what [...]

I’ve got some weird stuff going on in my brain. All this clear, organized , logical thinking going on.
It’s freaking me out a little, but I figure it won’t last long, so I better make the best of it.
I’m not going to push myself too hard to be creative and witty tonight, but my readers [...]
