it's been a while and i've missed you:)

so i have been neglectful over the past few days, in writing that is. of course i stalk the blogs i love to read every day.....

i have good excuses though, tuesday morning i had to exercise and i nearly had an actual temper tantrum because someone else was using guinevere, i almost pushed him right off, but they have cameras in there and so in the interest of not being arrested for assault, i used the treadmill next to her. but i stared at her the whole time so she wouldn't be upset. by the time i got home and calmed down from not using her i was exhausted and add a drink (yes i drank in the morning) i fell asleep......


only to wake up and head back to work, where on tuesday morning a last minute transport from one hospital to the next requiring me to ride in an ambulance with the patient took up all my time and then into the bosses office......


then one more time back to work and when i got home that morning i was caring for my son who was sick for the first time this winter and though he never did throw up just the thought was making him worse. seeing as how i stayed up for about 26 hours and ended up sleeping on the living room floor with him, i wasn't feeling so hot myself.

so now i am here and i've missed you, faithful readers. ooops. i meant reader. (its so hard being so popular with all 4 people who read me)


anyway, congrats to cammie who got more than her desired 100 comments on her 100th post! i freakin love that girls blog and if you aren't reading it, you should be!


i found out this week my son is an exhibitionist.

i know that is a loaded statement, and at such a young age.....i am sure some may think what are we teaching him...but i'll tell the story anyway..


he got out of the shower and came running out in his towel, all wrapped up with wet hair sticking every which way looking super cute. apparently he was searching for his "sexy spray" which i found out was his axe body spray that daddy taught him to use so he smells good. so i grabbed the camera to take a pic of him because he looked so stinkin cute. as i focused the camera and told him to smile, i guess he forgot that he was wrapped up he put his arms at his side and cocked his head and smiled.....


leaving his whole little body exposed.


he was smiling and proud.


i put the camera down and started laughing and telling him ummmm.....not every one wants to see his private parts.


his response?


"why not mommy? it's delightful."


delightful??!!!!


of course there never was a picture because he thought it was so funny he refused to cover back up and as cute as i think he is.......it may be a bit more tasteful (and safe) not to have a picture like that around.


on a more fun note today...i finally made it to the hairdresser and i no longer have to sit on my hair. many inches and some bleach later, i am feeling much better.


it pains me to remember the experience though. at the risk of sounding like a total b**ch, i will tell you it isn't because i don't love being pampered, having my hair shampooed and blownout in a way i will never be able to duplicate and basking in that perfect hair day glow. and it isn't that i don't like the girl who does it, she has been doing all of our hair cuts for years. it isn't even that i had to pay 170 dollars after tip to get it done.


small talk folks.


i can't stand small talk.


i don't mind conversation with people. i enjoy it. even if i don't know someone, if we can find something that keeps the conversation going about something, anything, i am good. but.... what i can't stand is the little questions that end up in yes/no answers or something that no conversation can ever develop from. it drives me up the freakin wall. i would rather sit in silence.


"how is the family?"


"good, you?"


"good. busy"


"yeah, us too"


"yeah"


"ready for summer?"


"yeah, you?"


"yeah."


see what i mean. i felt terrible. why couldn't i find something to talk about? well whatever, there are now several very uninteresting things i know about the girl who does a great job on my hair:


her boyfriend smokes pot


she takes her 15 year old nephew to rated R movies


her boyfriend is 29 and has a 7 year old daughter who lives in texas, who he hasn't seen in 3 years


she is contemplating a tattoo


she lives with her parents still


she doesn't care that her boyfriend smokes pot


wow, my life has seriously changed.....


ok, i will now come back from sarcasm land....

now, for something a little more fun...


the purse tag...
