It's All About The Numbers

Sarah, Goon Squad Sarah tagged me today. Hopefully it won't take me 4hours to do this one. I promise I'll have more of the song list in the next couple days.

(Just as I finished that sentence, my son started to pee on the couch, I had to wrestle him to the bathroom, praise his peeing in the chair, help him wash his hands, keep his sister from sticking her head in the toilet and her fingers in the fan THEN I had to open the video store for Mr. I Wanna Watch That And I Don't Want To Be Scared (whatever that means). He changed his mind about 7 times, I threatened to take them all away and he selected Snow White. Or as he calls it, "The Lady and The Apple Movie".)

(I just typed THAT out and he's scared of the Lady and the Apple. I told him to wait for the dwarves cause dwarves are funny. [I mean that in a non offensive way] I had to stand in there and wait for whatever scary part it was to pass [the witch was talking to her mirror - terrifying I know] I passed the time putting a few loads of their laundry away. It's much easier to just leave it all in the baskets but yeah, the wrinkles. No 18mo old of mine will wear wrinkled sundresses. HA! Almost had the straight face there. I'm lucky if there isn't Kool-Aid on the outfit and/or the kids. I think I'm ready to do this meme now.)

(I think)

Five items in my freezer
1. Pop Ice - about 12 right now, and those won't last too long past dinner.
2. A sausage on a stick wrapped in a pancake (think corndog look) that's been in there alone way too long for me to eat it.
3. Cookie dough that we got from a school fundraiser that is made for kids and yet I don't let the boy even know it exists. We'll wait 'til it's not 90 degrees in the house.
4. Sausage links, 4 boxes for $5.00 on sale through Saturday. I like mine a little burnt.
(Time to break up a fight - be right back - I hear Peanut's maniacal laugh now)
(He wanted me to get his sister off of HER bed. Yeah, no, not happening Sparky)
5. Mint chocolate chip, cookie dough and strawberry sundae ice creams

(You can NOT shut the door to the bedroom when your sister is screaming to get out! OPEN THE DOOR!)

Five items in the closet:
1. A Dale Jr. drill set
2. Emmit Smith jersey
3. Minnesota Wild jersey (next to the Duck's one that I'm really not sure how was aquired)
4. A Victoria's Secret handle bag full of my husband's ties
5. 2 lawn chairs (folded up of course)

Five items in the car
1. Booster seat
2. Kelly Clarkson cd (Shut up)
3. Approx 75 business cards from the last place my husband worked at as well as about oh, 150 brochures for potential clients. I think he can toss those. I don't dare though because God forbid if he wanted them.
4. A plastic bag for all of my pop/soda cans
5. A cast iron framed kid's size bench that the husband asked me to take out of the trunk last week so as not to wreck the trunk. Whoops.

Five items in my backpack (it was last used for that fateful Iowa trip)
1. Umbrella
2. An old issue of People magazine
3. A can of Diet Coke w/ Lime
4. A sketchbook
5. Sunscreen for the kids

Five people I tag
(Just rescued a toy from the toilet, thank you Peanut. Was also informed by the boy that he's "Going Ghost" again. I'm telling you, The Queen's son and mine are supposed to be friends.)
1. Georgia
2. Kelly
3. Jordan
4. Tina
5. Sarah O

Since it was going to take me close to the above mentioned 4 hours to finish this, I figured I would go ahead and put in links cause sometimes I go link crazy on top of my already screwed up paranoid schitzo crazy. And I can make fun of paranoia and schitzos cause I am one so there!)

This Has To Be Said

I haven't blogged in 8 months. We bought a house, still unpacking, school started. You know, life. I felt the need, the urgent need to blog about the Adrian Peterson situation today. I am full of all sorts of feelings and had to write about it. I would love to hear your thoughts on this whole thing. No really, I would. I don't feel I was a douchebag in my writing so all I ask is you not be a douchebag in your response. Thanks. My thoughts on the Adrian Peterson situation (but first, some backstory): I was spanked as a child. I'm pretty sure most of us that grew up in the 80s were. Until the summer between 5th and 6th grade I lived in Charelston, SC and from 6th to 11th grade, North Chicaco, IL. I have seen every form of discipline doled out on a child. I've seen spankings, beatings, hairbrushes smacked into heads, spoons hitting the tops of heads, whips, belts and even switches. I've seen it all. Most of you know that my son is named after a little boy who

This, That and The Other

I can already tell that Thanksgiving and Christmas are going to suck ass even more than it normally would at my job. Last night, a guy was telling me how much he gave me, how much he was supposed to get back and THEN told me what order to give it back to him in. Um? Sir? I'm not a twit, ok, I am a twit, but I'm not an idiot. Ok, sometimes I can be. Like that time I moved up to Wisconsin in the middle of a blizzard from nice, warm Tucson, AZ for a dumb boy and we broke up less than two months later. Yeah that sucked but my point is: I've been in retail, just about every job one could have except store manager, for about oh, 19 years. I think I know what I'm doing when it comes to giving change back. Don't talk to me like I'm a 16 yr old kid who's working his first job and doesn't give a shit what kind of work ethic he has. I care about you as a customer but when you're a dick to me and pissing off everyone in my line so they are dicks to me ? Well,

Trish Needs.......

I did this cause of Suzi, whose page I read religiously - check her out here . I'm going with the top 30 Google responses to "Trish needs" because SO many of them are related to wrestling of which I am a fan but not capable of doing without killing myself and/or the other person (unless it's the husband in bed but we won't go there. No. We won't. His sister reads this! Hi Steph!) I've decided to add commentary where I feel it's needed because, well, because I can. 1. Trish needs to always be in control of the situation and her men (amen to that my friends) 2. Trish needs to get this card off as soon as possible 3. Trish needs to do some serious damage control 4. Trish needs your help (help packing, help mentally, help with laundry, help with Monkey Boy, etc) 5. Trish needs to come to OPS and talk to all counselors & supervisors 6. Trish needs a makeover ( I don't think it's THAT bad!) 7. Trish needs an intervention (I do not have an Oreo pr
