Thank You Mechanics For Striking

I don't know what beef ya'll had, sorry, I really don't care. What I do care about are the following facts:

My husband loves his car.

My daughter loves her naps.

My son loves NOT taking naps.


All of these have been thrown up in the air and tossed about making my life miserable. So again, thanks guys =0) Hope you get what you want (really, I do, I'm just on my period, depressed and broke. And apparantly really in the mood to share waaaay too much info. Sorry.)

SO. We took the car in on Monday and just got it back today. The husband called this morning, it'll be ready by noon. Called at noon, it'll be ready in the hour. Called at 130, we'll call you when it's done. Holy shit! It's ready? You're kidding me! Ok let's go. Wait no, Peanut is sleeping. Ok, wake her up, cringe, oh we're happy? Bonus. Grab juices and supply toys. Fight nausea the whole way there. Briefly wonder if the impossible has happened. Clearly not the case since that whole period thing showed up when we got home. Anywhoo. Get to repair shop. Fight more waves of nausea. See husband off in car, get on the road home. Have Peanut screaming and crying the whole. way. home. Have Monkey Boy fall asleep at the first stop light on the 20 min drive home. Are we having fun yet? Yes! Me too. Get home, get crab ass inside, get deadweight boy in. Try to stop assault and battery by Peanut on the boy. Now who's the crab ass? Pick out of us three. No matter, they're all the right answer. This is how my afternoon went right up til Daddy got home.

And I thought I needed to go the therapist every two weeks instead of every week? What the hell is wrong with me?

Wow, I hope things get better and FAST! I know how one "little" thing after another can pile up and threaten to topple. If it helps... "This, too, shall pass.." Or did I just piss you off even more?

All I need to do is think about how nice and quiet it will be in 2 days when my inlaws take Monkey Boy up north for a week eyes are glazing over I'm sorry what were we talking about?
Is there any chance your inlaws want to take The Goon Squad too?

Please do not ask me to email photos out, I get entirely too many requests for them. These are the ones that I have at home, thanks to a couple of sources.

Customer Appreciation Day

Dear Crotchety Broad, While I love my job and think it's the easiest one in the world to have, I do not think dealing with your ass was easy. Here are some highlights from my fabulous time with you: When your cashier is ringing up your precious produce, putting the codes in (from memory thank you very much), don't start trash talking her. I didn't hear you ask if I needed help because, well, um, I was busy ringing your shit up. When I look up because I heard something , don't look at me and say, " HELLO??" all sarcastic and shit. I will squish your tomatos, avocados and bread. When I ask if you have coupons, that's generally a sign that I am not a mind reader, can't see in your purse and can't predict the future (contrary to what you may think dear customer). As a refresher, here's our coversation: Loverly Cashier: Did you have any coupons today ma'am? (and that ma'am part may or may not have been choked out of my throat) Crotchety Broa...

She Was Heartbroken

After reading about Kim and Reggie breaking up, the Monkey had a moment of silence to reflect on the love that is no longer there. And then she ate part of the page. Fiber! She needs fiber ya know! She wasn't as into the Saved By The Bell article like her favorite Auntie was (ahem) but she did kiss Zack Morris. No lie. Puckered right on up and layed one on him. He hasn't been the same since.
