My mom is notorious (she's the youngest girl, followed by the only boy) for teaching my twin cousins to slurp soup. My uncle (the youngest) taught them all sorts of interesting ways to clean house and make salad.
(My dad was the one to teach us the straw wrappers and spitballs at Peter Piper Pizza. Mom was not amused until 20 years later.)
I'm not a younger sibling, but am looking for things to teach the niecphews that make their parents look at me funny. I fear I'm falling down on the job, cause my brother is pretty crazy already.
I fear I'm too old for Veronica Mars. This is the second time I've tried to watch it, but I just can't. Veronica so wants to be Buffy, she even sounds like her. I have no idea what her sidekick's name is, but she always gets called "Willow" in my head. I try to like it, because so many peeps here do, but it's not working.
I tried to teach my nephew to say, "That's bananas Grammie."
It didn't work out, but he's got, "Uh oh spaghetti-oh" down.
Allyson, get the boy Flanimals. Really. You might get equated something utterly bizarre, but they are nicely warped and appealing to that age group. Great way to make the family tilt their heads!
OK, I went to put together tomorrow's dinner and... I lost a bag of cheese. Weird. God knows where I put it.
I lost a bag of cheese.
I'm picturing a group of surgeons standing around an operating table with a bag a cheese on it. One Dr. says, "Call it."
It's possible I'm on a sugar high.
I've got tennis on tv but the match they're showing is finished and I've got a different match up on the Australian Open's website. I think this is the first time I've "seen" anything live this tournament.
I just learnt that I was standing next to Paris Hilton at a party on Sunday.
I have totally arrived--I ignored Paris. I mean, I knew there was a tall blonde standing next to me, but I didn't care.
ita, I thought there were beautiful people at J's party. If that were teh case, why would Paris hilton be there?
