Glued to the Tube

Its Sunday night. There is nothing on. Except Wife Swap. Aaand, normally I wouldn’t sink to that level. However, tonight’s show involved a hoity-toity upper class family from New York and a Carny family. As in: of the carnival. As in a family of gypsies that live in a trailer. Im sorry, but I couldn’t [...]


Ours Was Great, How About Yours?

30th November 2008 | 1 Comment

Yes, I’m a few days late but our Thanksgiving was great fun. We got together with two of our neighbors as well as another family. I told PC that a neighborhood Thanksgiving is absolutely the way to go because when you have 3 ovens going simultaneously all food can be ready at the same time and actually [...]

Hey, guys, it’s the Guest Poster, Mr. PC, back for more hazing!!  One of the neatest things about going to all of these countries here (specifically Thailand), is that I’ve been fortunate enough to be there for various holidays.  In April, I was in Thailand for Songkran (the Thai Water Festival) which was AMAZING.  This [...]


Full Fat I’ll-have-seconds-please Thanksgiving Edition

26th November 2008 | 1 Comment

Last night we went to the Shopette to rent a movie, get a bottle of wine, and Cool Whip*. While checking out I put Mackenzie (in her carseat) on the checkout counter while I got my wallet out. Nathan, very concerned, asks me “Mommy, why do we have to pay for Mackenzie?”
*More on that in [...]

It doesn’t seem possible its been 7 weeks already. Our nights are still drill-a-hole-through-my-head miserable. But this I know for sure: it wont last forever, and as I tell her- the fact that she’s cute makes up for it.


Maybe Its Just Because The Carseat Is So Heavy

21st November 2008 | 0 Comments

I went to Dunkin Donuts to get coffee this morning after dropping Nathan of at school. I toted Mac-Mac in her carseat and was 4th in line. I quickly got annoyed when the first guy in line, a overweight, almost obese guy was having trouble deciding what donuts to fill his box of 12 with. [...]


Things

Thing the first: I just re-read that last post and, wow, it appears proofreading things now and then wouldn’t be such a bad idea. Sorry for all the typos/grammar/poor writing. I do in fact have a college degree, though I never did take Writing For The College Bound (wink wink Steph). I function most days [...]


Dude, It Was In My Hair!!!

16th November 2008 | 3 Comments

Last night I was feeding Mackenzie and was sort of dozing off. I felt something on my shoulder and neck and was a little alarmed but figured it was just my hair falling. A few seconds later I felt something crawling in my hair and knew that this was not my hair. My first thought [...]


Help Me Understand

15th November 2008 | 2 Comments

My dad always told me that during an altercation with someone (you know, like when you are on the phone with the cable company and dealing with an idiot) when you are upset a good phrase to use is “help me understand.” 
This is what I’d like help understanding: I went to oldnavy.com in search of [...]


Are There Really 24 Full Hours In a Day?

14th November 2008 | 1 Comment

Because Im not sure where they all go. I used to have plenty of time to post and now days roll by and I wonder how I will find the time. Currently, sweet thang is sleeping in her swing, Nathan is at school and Kimmy is busy cleaning which has freed up at least a [...]
