Overheard: What my children fear… “You better be careful or Mom will blog about you…” Devin my dear, this one’s for you. 7:30 pm, Monday night…. Mom: Devin, you have an orthodontic appointment tomorrow after school, so come straight home. Devin: Got it. 3:00 pm, Tuesday afternoon the phone rings… Mom: Hello? Devin: Mom! The […]

This? This is not the face of T-Ball. This is the true face of T-Ball.

Funny, I don’t remember getting hit by a bus….

Conner just came home from school. He showed me a scrape on the back of his leg that looks like tire tracks. Conner: “I got another scrape on my leg.” Mom: “How did that happen?” Conner: “I don’t know. I don’t remember anyone, like, driving over my leg or anything.” Mom: “Well, that’s weird. Try […]

Bar Refaeli – Green M&M smackdown.

The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition came out last week. The first man in the house to grab it out of the pile of mail? Grant. I think he prefers the back cover to the front cover though…

O creativity, creativity… wherefore art thou, creativity?

Grant spent the weekend at Gramma & Poppa’s house. In addition to serving waffles on demand, Gramma is cool because she likes boy things. Dinosaurs. Planes. Space shuttles. Science. (shut up shut up shut up. Yes. I am sexist. I think math and science are boy things. ew.) Anyhoo. Under the umbrella of science (both […]

Dipshitophobia.

I am not superstitious. I freely walk under ladders (although not over grates in the sidewalk), once owned a black cat and I would not think it lucky if a bird pooped on me. However, I do think the history and theory behind superstition is interesting, so when I saw an article promising facts about […]

First base! Second Base! Third base! Home! (No? OK, just spin around or pick dandelions or something…)

We signed Grant up for T-ball. His team is made up of 4 and 5 year-olds. The phrase it’s like herding cats absolutely applies here. Here are some of the things I heard myself saying to Grant yesterday: Stop spinning! Listen to your coach! There’s no crying in baseball! You don’t need any crackers right […]

No Scooby-Snacks for Conner.

February 12, 2009 Leave a Comment

Last night Conner informed me that the dogs had knocked over the dog food container and food was all over, and they ate it all. I got the distinct impression that we were now out of dog food. I called Rich and asked him to pick some more up on his way home. This morning, […]

Great Best Man Speech.

OK, I haven’t seen this before, and I usually don’t believe the “LMAO” claims when someone sends me something. I don’t know if I laughed my ass off, but my jeans are fitting a bit better after watching this. http://www.freakybestmanspeech.com/

Filed Under: mischief, quirkiness, very cool, Well it's news to me
