They See Me Coming And See Dollar Signs I'm Sure

I'm an impulsive buyer. I own that title. I embrace it at times. We got rid of the old tube TVs a couple weeks ago that we had up in the kids' room. They didn't work all that great and we needed the room because of the pack n play and the bassinet. A friend of mine pointed me towards a recycling center in our area that I never knew about and poof! old TVs begone. Yay merrily.

I looked online at a couple places and decided I needed a new TV tonight. I don't know why I came to that conclusion. You know what I mean. I have my reasons that I discussed with the husband: I wake up with leg cramps at 2 am and can't get back to sleep for a couple hours. Sometimes I just want to lay down and watch a movie that isn't Disney made. When the baby gets here it would be nice to have something to distract me whilst feeding said child at 12, 2, 4 and 6 am. I just wanted a TV in there.

I walked into the big name store and made a bee line for the home theatre dept and I just know the guys working there thought "Ooh here comes a good sale, she's on a mission!" True. I was. But I'm no fool (OK now this point could be argued since I went to the store at 8pm on a Friday and I looked for all of 15 minutes at the TVs though in my defense, not much to choose from in my price range and could this sentence ramble on anymore, oh I think so but I'll stop now). I conferred with the husband via text and a choice was made. I now have a TV in my room that I don't have to get up to change the channel on, the volume or DVD functions. Yay me.

I'm sure I'll regret the purchase some tomorrow. I always do. I figure it's a good deal and I'll get our money's worth out of it with night feedings alone. That and I'm a night owl. Maybe I'll catch up on my OZ series and the dozen or so movies that I got for dirt cheap at work. We'll see.

On a side note, where the hell are all those "Reserved for expecting moms/moms with small children" parking spots that I used to see all the time? That would have come in handy tonight fo sho.

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...

Um What?

Why does he feel the need to do this? He sleeps with his hand in his pull up. He pulls his penis out during the day to show me. Here I thought it went to Penis Playgroup. How did Peanut know, before even touching the icicle that it would be cool and warranted the face of pure happiness? Oh how she was distraught when it was taken away. I think she was really just pissed off because Monkey Boy took it and broke it into 12 pieces and that was the end of Fun With Sharp Frozen Things. *** I'm so irked at the whole T.O. thing in Dallas. I wish Jerry Jones would just stick his head further up his ass. *** When you stub your toe and the next day it looks like your 3yr old colored your foot with black, blue and purple markers, you probably broke it. *** It doesn't feel good when said 3yr old stomps on said foot during one of appx 14 meltdowns - this morning. *** Trying to rearrange a bedroom that 2 kids and an adult share while all those people are in there? Not such a good idea. *** ...
