I tried to update earlier, but to no avail. Xanga was being difficult. Must be in it’s teens. Luckily, I had the foresight to save my thoughts… as they are few and far between these days…. so here they are!
Also, I had an infusion of chocolate fudge brownie ice cream and some serious shopping, I feel totally rejuvenated!
I have no energy. I have no ambition. I have no desire.
I’d make an effort, but it’s too much work.
Last night I had the best ice cream cake –EVER!! It was from Cold Stone Creamery. God bless Cold Stone. It was 4 layers, Red Velvet, chocolate chip ice cream and the icing was a thick layer of solid chocolate! OMG… What a treat!
On the way home Silver_Fangz and her dad got into a discussion… it went something like this:
Dad: So what’s the drama? Tell me?
SF: Ewwwww….. no, why would I do that? That’s yucky.
Dad: Well next time you ask for a ride I’m going to say “Ewwwwww…. no!! Why would I do that??” [read in sing-song valley girl voice]
SF: [cracking up] That was too cute daddy…. say it again. Say it again… Please???
Dad [now trying to be cool] no, I don’t think so….
Whole family [with exception of dad] is busting up laughing at hubby’s lovely imitation of a valley girl. Isn’t that just the sweetest?
Other conversations included one where dad suggested that SF earn her computer time through grades. Straight A’s = unlimited access. Each B reduces the time by 1/2 hour…. or something along those lines. I think he would need to think that through more closely and set specific times, but all in all I think it’s a good idea… I’m all for it! I think this could also apply to TV or Nintendo for both daughters. Hmmmmm the plot thickens!!!
As parents… I feel it is my duty and responsibility to come up with cruel and unusual tortures for my children in order to prepare them for the real world. Any suggestions???
An old Indian lined up all of his ten sons and stood in front of them. He then asked, “Who push port-a-potty over cliff?” Nobody answered him.
He then asked again, “Who push port-a-potty over cliff?” And again nobody answered.
The old Indian said, “I tell story of Georgie and Georgie father. Georgie chop down cherry tree. Georgie tell truth, Big Georgie no punish. Little Indian tell truth, I no punish.” So the Indian asked again, “Who push port-a-potty over cliff?”
The littlest Indian replied, “I push port-a-potty over cliff. ”
The old Indian then shakes him, spanks him, does everything he can to punish him. When he is done, the little Indian asks, “Georgie tell truth, Georgie no get punish. I tell truth, I get punished. Why you punish?”
The old Indian replied, “Big Georgie not in cherry tree when it got chopped down.”

I hear you on the no ambition part. I can picture your hubby talking that way cause when mine tries it, it is really funny. Cold Stone is awesome. I go for the Knights in White chocolate myself. I am up way too late today or way too early, haven’t decided which yet. I like the idea of the computer time or TV with the grades. Very good idea. I am always looking for ways to embarrass my son. Told him I was going to give him flowers and balloons for 8 grade graduation and he told me that would be gay. HMMMM.
Love the joke. Have a good one.
Like for sure I can totally hear the “man figure” doing valley girl.
I like your computer to grades stand.
I’m feeling a little as you describe. Is there something in the air, or what?
Have a great day and take care.
At least you don’t have one of those hubby’s that LOOK like a valley girl!! LOL
i know how ya feel
