Like the wrench and the cracker


No one, in fact, wants to be a gymdawg…

…what people do want is a chance to take a break at work while appearing productive, assuming they have one of those screen privacy thingys.  What people want is a break from trying to pry giant panties off her son.  They want to procrastinate, they want to ruminate for the lord, rise up bloggin and they want to take my hand, salt lick sucks, nettie and Liam is 2!!

Huh?

I you got all of those references then your favorites list looks like mine.

So who am I to hinder those efforts.  I believe firmly in the golden rule and so here is a new blog post.  My goal is to post two times a week.  Not as crazy as everyday and not as pathetic as once every six weeks.  I also believe firmly in compromise.

So to make this post worth your while, here are some cute things my nieces have said:

( as we passed Stonecrest on I-20)

JJ (age 2) “What’s that?” (breathy and amazed)

Alibear (age 5) -sighing resignedly- “The Whole World”

JJ (pause) “Do they have animals there?”

Alibear “I don’t think so”

 Why is it that kids pick up on and speak truths with such speed and accuracy?  JJ also doesn’t that she should use nicknames in place of proper names when she can combine them instead.  For example, my sister Isabelle also goes by Izzy and so JJ calls her Izzybelle.  So now I do too.  And my kitten whom I refer to as Roxanne has recently been upgraded to Roxyzanne.

I think she’ll be a publicist when she grows up.  Unless…..she also has been known to proclaim at rest time that she is NOT going to close her eyes “and that’s my choice!”  So maybe a replacement for Stephen Colbert,  or the next Gloria Steinem.  Good thing I don’t have to decide her future.

It’s midnight, that’s my excuse
