We had some rain while at church. I was unawares. mac got a little verbally not ok with a DRAMA queen 9 year-old girl at church tonight. She totally knew it was said jokingly and was not even really bothered by it (she came skipping over to me practically giggling to tell me,), but she LOVES an audience so was really loud, and well, there's just no way to make "your son said he was going to kill me" sound ok to most parents' ears. So the looks have started. joy. He and I had a talk about how 1) that's not ok to say, like ever. 2) She is to be avoided because she will cause him trouble.

I love Erin very much right now.

My heartlessness is hearting you right back!

Dude, there are TOO many awesome ffistas I have not yet had the pleasure of getting sloshed with. I really gotta pimp KC for this years F2F. If I were REAL sly (and, um, CRXY) I would pimp it for my wedding reception weekend.

So. Undercovers. Sam and Whathisname -- adorable. Her ass is FINE. Like the married couple with secrets dynamic, as long as some of the twee gets toned down a but.

Seems like a pilot, still getting its legs, but I see some potential there.

Needed to be better, sooner asskicking, though. Garner set a high bar for me in an Abrams. Some good repartee; syncophant boy is amusing but needs to tone it down a notch, and then some. Set up for some skulduggery. Who's zoomin' who?

All in all, fun, will watch and see. Could be worthwise. I love that they're married.

ION, I am preparing to go to bed, (yes, net before bed, but I had a 2 hour break, and I'm just checkin' a few places, Ma! I be good!)

Made a yummy pot roast, cleaned and organzied my bedroom closet and kitchen pantry.

Not bad for 3 hours sleep, yo.

Uhg, msbelle. OTOH, any parent who hasn't had that has some sort of freaky kid!

Sniff. Got an email from Taylor. She's invited me to a family dinner/recognition ceremony in a few weeks for her leadership program at Morgan State. Going with her and her dad. Sniffsniff.

if my new boss was willing to spend any money, I would be in KC next month for a conference. But, I get that he's trying to get a handle on finances and doesn't want to spend unnecessary money. but I WANNA GO!!

msbelle, Owen had a run in two years ago at the gym's daycare with a mother. She said he took a play, plastic knife from their play kitchen and held it to her throat. He was 3 1/2. I suspect this was after he'd seen Pirates of the Caribbean with his dad but whatever. She insisted that he not be in the same playroom with any of her kids at any time.

Gave us 2 months of grief.

Same one as the haircut mom? If not, those two should be friends.

Different mom. Lots of crazy to go around, apparently.

Maybe my kids are crazy magnets like me.

I remember that, Cash! And the haircut mom. Ugh.

Haircut Mom's newest thing is telling her 4 year old daughter that she'll get sick if she eats ham. I understand that they're Jewish and the child will eat anything anyone gives her but that kind of makes me uncomfortable.

She was with a (Jewish!) babysitter who gave her pepperoni pizza because she asked for it! WTF?

Oh, man, that kind of lie is never a good idea. Just sure to backfire at some point. And four is old enough to understand, "This is something we don't eat," even if she doesn't like it.
