Memed

Contagion tagged me with this meme, cause he "owed me" except that I believe the last time I tagged him with a meme, he didn't do it . . . anyway . . . This meme is stupid. So there!

I worked in a video store for my junior and senior years of highschool. As a result, I watched nearly every movie in the building. Many of those movies are not on this list. Many other really good movies are not on this list either. Go figure. Who makes this shit up anyway?

Pajama Day

The Boy and I decided that yesterday would be pajama day - as in never leave your pajamas all day!

We left the house twice - and wore our jammies both times. Once to the corner store for milk, and once to the corner store for munchies.

On Saturday I had purchased a Wii!!! Yesterday, the Boy and I broke it in. We boxed - he got a KO in the second round. We fished - he scored 1400 points during the timed fishing. We bowled - he got three strikes in a row. We golfed - he got par on the first three shots . . . do you see where this is going?

My four year old child - the one who ran naked through the house last night before bed with a purple towel wrapped around his head proclaiming that he was "Professor Quirrell" and that if I didn't "watch my step he would unleash the guy under the turban."

Too funny. Needless to say, although I had my ass kicked by a four year old - I had a wonderful Sunday!

How about you?

Fifty is Nifty!

Fifty - 5-0!!

50!!!

Fifty!!!!!!

I cannot say it enough . . . there are but 50 days separating me from some of the finest peeps I've ever had the pleasure to meet.

50 days!

My friends, see you all in 50 days!

Whee!

Your Superpower Should Be Manipulating Electricity

You're highly reactive, energetic, and super charged. If the occasion calls for it, you can go from 0 to 60 in a split second. But you don't harness your energy unless you truly need to. And because of this, people are often surprised by what you are capable of. Why you would be a good superhero: You have the stamina to fight enemies for days Your biggest problem as a superhero: As with your normal life, people would continue to underestimate you

Can you?

Worst Mom Ever

Since I am totally in the running for the world's worst mom ever, today I took the day off.

Today was "take your mom to school day" otherwise known as parent visitation day at my son's preschool. So, since, before two weeks ago, I'd never set foot in his school, met his teachers or met any other child in his class, I thought I should go.

I got to watch the kids play, perform, do class work, learn the number 6, sing a song about a hippo, recite the pledge, the Lord's prayer and the rubber ducky song. I got to partake in animal crackers for snack and follow my son around.

What a wonderful day. I am so glad I took the day off for this. I slept in, had breakfast with my husband and child, took my baby to school and later had icecream for a snack after school. If you haven't done it lately - take time for you or your family - you don't know what you are missing. Oh, but I am sooooo not school mom material - just saying.

Tomorrow it is back to the daily grind, but I will tell you, today was heavenly.

My hubby and I haven't been on a real vacation since 2001. We've never been on vacation as a family. Sure we have had a long weekend here and there, but no vacations. In just two VERY SHORT months we will be going on our first vacation in 7 years and our first as a family.

My New Year's resolution was to spend more time with family and friends. I think it is actually going to happen. If I didn't do any more than parent visitation day at the Boy's school today, I have fulfilled that resolution. Last year I could probably count in hours the time I spent with my family. This year I'm making those hours count.

So, here is a toast, to spending time with family and friends and friends who feel like family - to making time to do it right and to rum punch in two months! *cue calypso music and fade to black*

Pet Peeve

I have a pet peeve. It is really quite simple, I don't like people to touch my food.

Let me narrow that down a bit. I don't mind if you prepare my food, nibble from my plate, even flat out touch my food on my plate - if I like you, that is . . .

But, if I have prepared something or if I have food on the table - if you want to eat it - get a plate!!! Do not stick your fork in my pie and stand over it eating it. You have just contaminated my pie. Do not stick your fork in my $20.00 cheesecake and eat multiple bites.

Unless you are 4, this is unacceptable behavior.

Now, I am sure you all think I've someone in mind when discussing this. I do. My sister.

This weekend was my dad's birthday, so I made a baked ziti and bought a fabulous turtle cheesecake.

My sister, too busy to eat with us, stood over the ziti, fork in hand eating huge mouthfuls of ziti. GET A FRICKIN BOWL! Then she moved on to my cheesecake in which she decided it was also acceptable to stick that ziti and spit covered fork into my $20.00 cheesecake! FOR THE LOVE OF PETE! She is lucky I didn't shove that fork up her nose!

Now, I will say this again, it is completely acceptable behavior if you are a child. SHE IS 28!

I will go so far as to say, I don't even mind if everyone is done eating and we all sit around with forks finishing off the dessert or if that was the plan all along, but we hadn't even started yet. I hadn't even cut into that beautiful cheesecake, so when it came time to serve it, it had forkfuls missing from one side. DISGUSTING! To me it is the equivalent of wiping her nose on my cheesecake. I couldn't even eat it, though my husband says it was fabulous.

You know those boxes of assorted chocolates? Well, when we were kids she would aways (and still does to this day) stick her finger in the bottom of the creams, and eat only the ones she liked. Instead of throwing out the ones she didn't, she'd put them back in the box looking pristine on top. So, fed up with her, one year for christmas I bought her a box of chocolates and dutifully stuck my finger in every single one.

Maybe it isn't the lack of ettiquete at all that bothers me. Maybe it is just her *wink*.

How was your weekend?
