The 24 Hour Woman

I guess multitasking and baking don’t really go together.  I tried warming up the kids lunch while baking a batch of cookies.  Now I have fresh baked cookies drizzled in pizza grease.

Fuck

This shit never happens to Martha Stewart.

It rears its ugly head...

It is so depressing when a lovely day goes wrong. I had a plan in my head for today and none of it came to fruition.  I can’t figure out people sometimes, how can they be so self centered and rude and not even realize it. Or do they and they are so self absorbed they don’t even care.

A brand new decade...

Last night we partook of a little too much libation and laughter and today we slept it off with hourly naps.  But in between we also found time to watch a bunch of cheesy movies from the 80’s and eat the best smoked venison I have ever tasted in 40 years. Not a bad start to a brand new decade.

Ironic...

I got an iTouch for my birthday and a laptop for Christmas, but the gift that keeps on giving is the grumbling I get for actually using them.

Best Holiday Conversation of 2009

Me to the 12 year old,

“Are those Christmas stripes on your underpants? Too cute!"

“Mom, you got them, don’t you know what you picked?"

“I hate to tell you, but your father picked those all out."

“I am going to vomit...”

"Thanks for taking such good care of me, Mom"


"No problem, honey"

"You and Daddy are doing so much for me."

"Well we used to wipe your ass, so this is nothing."

"Gross.....but if I have to have surgery you might have to again..."

Standard Dinner Conversation

"Did you just take your fresh basil leaf off your turkey burger?"

"Yup, it's gross."

"Do you think that Giada's husband takes the fresh basil leaf off his turkey burger?"

"Are you comparing yourself to Giada right now?"

"No, I'm comparing you to her gay husband."

"Oh."



All talk of basil forgotten...
