once again....monday snuck up on me!

its that time folks...

that therapuetic, nasty habit revealing, let it all hang out, divulging of secrets.......



Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.


ok, i wish i had some fabulous things to put, or should i say delightful?........ anyway, everyone else always has super funny not me mondays, but i'm pretty average so brace yourself.....

i did not have a small temper tantrum, including stomping of feet, because someone else was using guinevere (someone who knows that she belongs to me), i would never do that because there were 4 other people in the room and also a security camera, and besides, i'm a big girl now...

also among the things i did not do? i would never, ever make a sex joke at work to my boss, in front of 8 new students because i was desperately tired, and she did not laugh hysterically because she was exhausted as well, despite glares from the instructor.....

i did not miss the long anticipated superbox seat, vip parking and lounge hockey game on thursday, instead opting to sit on the living floor me with a trashcan and my son with a bucket waiting to purge my body of the churned up food laying in my belly, (we kept eachother's spirits high me and that 7 year old with talk of what we would do once we weren't sick and dying anymore)

i did not completely ignore a call from work requesting me to come in for an extra shift, i didn't do that because it is generally courteous to at least call back with an excuse, which i didn't really have.....

i did not go to a hockey game with a bag the size of a small suitcase on my shoulder, (everything which is personally necessary and conveniently posted previously for your viewing pleasure) and then stand for 2.5 hours while carrying it simply because everyone else was standing....

i would never try to have a conversation with my son while simultaneously watching a t.v. show, and just nod my head and say yes to everything he said, including but not limited to...

---after the baby comes out of the mommy's tummy, they do one last test to see if they are allergic to nuts.......nod, nod "yes"

---they cut that tube (a.k.a. umbilical cord) so that all the water the baby drank can come out.......nod, nod "yes"

---i am an alien hunter and this is the gun i will use to kill them, don't you wanna be one too?.......nod, nod "yes"

---mommy are you listening?.......nod, nod "yes"

i certainly did not go to philly with some girlfriends for one of their 26th birthday party, and dance until 2am in a club and then discuss all of our sexlives in vivid details on the way home...

i did not realize that there was still some presents from christmas waiting to be put away, and then agree to do it "some time" over these next few days...(i'm also sure i did not hear some kind of snort escape from my husband when i did not say i would get to it)

and lastly i did not decide to go ahead with the so called plan to change laundry day to monday, and then use that as an excuse to wait until monday to do any scrap of laundry....

well there you have it, another successful week of completing everything and doing it all the right way....NOT!

happy monday to everyone! jineen
