Ho Hum Twiddle Dee and Twiddle Dum

Funniest thing ever (thanks to SATGS for hipping us to it)

I was bored and saw this on Kemp's page so yeah, here we go:

1)Go to Wikipedia: and I'm done with that

2) In the search box, type your birth month and day but not the year. This one seems easy enough

3) List five events that happened on your birthday:
First: 1703 - Tsar Peter the Great founds the city of Saint Petersburg.
Second: 1895 - Oscar Wilde is sent to prison for sodomy. (Um wow, that's a hell of a useless fact that will now forever be burned into my brain matter. Thanks)
Third: 1937 - In California, the Golden Gate Bridge opens to pedestrian traffic, creating a vital link between San Francisco and Marin County.
Fourth: 1939 - DC Comics publishes its second superhero in Detective Comics #27; he is Batman, one of the most topical comic book superheroes of all time (my husband would file for divorce if I didn't include this one. It's Batman for God's sake)
Five: 1995 - In Culpeper, Virginia, actor Christopher Reeve is paralyzed from the neck down after falling from his horse in a riding competition.

A lot of sad/bad shit happened on my birthday in years gone by. Bring on the goodness!

4) List five important birthdays and one death.

1601 - Antoine Daniel, Jesuit missionary and martyr \
1837 - Wild Bill Hickok, American gunfighter 1911 - Vincent Price, American actor (I get creeped out when I see him in a movie even though I've seen him in interviews and he was funny as all get out)
1964 - Adam Carolla, American comedian and radio and television personality
1971 - Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes (and 1975 - Andre 3000 and Jadakiss)

Death – 2000 - Charles M. Schulz Creator of the comic strip Peanuts (Since he's a Twin City native, I gotta have him and really, who doesn't like Peanuts?)

5) One holiday or observance (if any)

Children's Day in Nigeria

6) Tag 5 other bloggers to complete.

Since I "borrowed" this from Kemp and I'd like to take this opportunity to borrow his answer as well......."No use since no one listens to me tags. If you want to do it, do it. If you don’t want to do it, don’t…"

I have this voicemail that I want to share with all of the internet but alas, I don't know how to get the audio on here. It wouldn't be the same if I transcribed it. Help me. Please.

My son likes poop and my daughter hasn't pooped in 2 days. Good times my internet friends, good times.

Welcome to my world. Ian will poop four times in a day and Claudia will go that many days without.

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,

Get Your Motor Running

Something fabulous happened this week. Glorious even. Spectacular. Heaven Sent. (ok that one may be stretching it a bit). I am no longer a stay at home mom with the potential to go crazy because I can't get out of the house with the kids until the husband comes home from work and that could be 1pm or 6pm, it's a crapshoot. My husband has to drive all over the Twin Cities and the surrounding areas to see his customers for work. We have a gas guzzling Explorer that I love (minus the whole gas guzzling part of course). He's put a couple thousand (maybe three or four) on that thing since starting his job in Nov. I was griping to my therapist about how I feel trapped at home. I'm not me anymore. I don't know what I like anymore if it doesn't involve one of the kids. I hated that this was happening. Wow, I sure do go on tangents. (My ex once told me that he has to run mentally to keep up with me conversationally. So true) Last week, we up and got ourselves this bad b
