The darndest thing

The last time something like this happened was when my sister emptied the clothes out of her dryer and a dead snake had it’s mouth clamped on her husband’s jock strap (oops…should I have put that in here?). 

What happens when Ralph Lauren boxers mix with a tank top?
(answer: see above)

Happy to be named Shana

So I’ve been seeing people putting on facebook what their name means according to the urban dictionary. One poor girl’s name was the indian word for scrotum (that’s just wrong people) so, I am very thankful that it says my name means:

  • Strong character, incredible beauty, amazing passion & love for life
  • She will rock your world (hmm, not sure about that)
  • Imagine everything you want and that is her (oh boy, I’m blushing)
  • Eyes full of life and mystery (sleepy eyes right now)
  • One look and that’s all it will take for you to fall under her spell (hmm…)
  • A lover of everything in this world from movies, books, food and life she will open your eyes more than ever imagined
  • If you find her keep her (makes me want to run and hide now like Waldo in “Where’s Waldo?”)

**then below all of this it says Shana is slang in Irish for “get me some of that”. (I guess one can interpret that however????)

…And there was one more definition that I can’t post here, very nasty language. And mean too.

He’s such a stud

Remember this post where I wrote about Adam being nominated for employee of the month? Well…folks….winner winner, chicken dinner!!! I will be sleeping next to a real live super-star tonite~and a hottie at that! And, to think that he’s only been there since September. Wow…think of things this great man could do with more time. Time to watch this movie again…oh, and I’m sure glad Adam’s eyes are a lot better since the accident so he isn’t like the guy in this video with the bottle-cap glasses (“I don’t know what I see”).

what we learned from the little people

If you didn’t read the earlier post about the little people’s visit, do so now…

So, here is what we learned from their all too brief stay.

  • In first and third grade you can’t do homework in pen. Adam tried and got the kids in trouble…notes were sent home on day two about using pencils!!!
  •  Giving a child free reign in the library to pick any book he would like us to read him to bed probably isn’t the best idea. Two minutes later he comes carrying out a children’s encyclopedia, 300 pages long and of course Adam cannot say no (note to self: set a limit on the size of the book I guess). She comes carrying out three scrapbooks telling our life story.
  • Getting “ready for bed” might just end up taking an hour and a half
  • Next time I need to be better prepared to have my hair styled. I didn’t have near enough product for her to use on my hair for the styles she was wanting to try. As Adam said the night they were gone (to soothe me in case I was feeling withdrawals)….honey, do you want me to french braid your hair?
  • When they say they want the salad bar at Pizza Hut they really just want a teaspoon of chocolate pudding
  • Sometimes it is easier to just give in
  • And, last but definitely not least because this is the BEST lesson learned. Apparently, this isn’t the best way to wear them out. To run them down and tire them out for bed after they’ve had ice cream after school, soda and hot chocolate at supper and cookies for dessert. Because they were still up and going at 11pm!
