*ten points to the one who knows what the title is from.
I was just outside for a smoke. It’s 11PM. There are people, and by people I mean fucking retards, still out there setting off fireworks and firecrackers. And when I think about how very mad I am that they are still doing it, this freaking late at night, on a WEEKDAY, I realize that I might have turned 29 today, but DAMN, I act like crotchety old man!
GET OFF MY LAWN!
I celebrated my Birthday with the kids and Hubs today - wait a sec - I want to point out that on BPR, I like to write about how my day went each night, and you read it in the morning. (Except those of you who love me most and sit around hitting refresh until a new post pops up) So you MIGHT notice that in the first paragraph I wrote like it is today - your today, July second, but now I am writing like it is today, MY today, the first. And, if any of the lines you just read made any sort of sense at all, you are very obviously high and drugs are bad. MMM’K.
As I was TRYING to say before I so rudely interrupted myself, Today me and the Testosterone Pack celebrated my Birthday. I’m 29. I TOTALLY scored in the gift department! Logan gave me a rock, and a lady bug AND a dandelion covered in little squirmy black bugs! And then hubs came home, forced me to sit in the bathroom while he rescued actual gifts from the trunk of the car, and wrapped them in the privacy of the bedroom.
I have to say, I am impressed. Not only were the gifts wrapped, but each gift was something I actually WANTED. I scored a new coffee mug - to replace the one hubs dropped on my foot and broke (the mug broke, not the foot) Some super cool socks - one pair has “left foot” and “right foot” on them, and I am absolutely going to wear them on the wrong feet! I got a box full of of bath Bombs, bubble bath and soap from Lush - If you have never been in a bath full of Lush products, I feel very, very sorry for you. Seriously. You might as well jump off a cliff. No, I’m not joking.
AND
I got a flat iron.
(I’ve figured out how to flat and iron the front part of my hair, but how in the hell do I do the back? Seriously? My hair is REALLY thick, I cannot see back there, and even if I had eyes in the back of my head, the instructions that came with the flat iron strictly prohibit eye/hot flat-iron-part-thingy contact. I’m going to search YouTube for instructional videos. Is that anal?) [who wants pictures of flat hair - when I figure out how to flatten it?]

I looked at Lovely Wife’s technique, and I think the key to iron/flat the back part of your hair is to make a funny squished-up face in the mirror. That or get Favorite Hubby to do it for you, which is totally not gay.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

I spent my 29th birthday in labor. And I baked a cake — for the baby! The bonus is, he’ll never forget my birthday

I LOVE Logan’s gifts, how sweet!
Lemmee see, I would think you could teach the older 2 boys to do your hair FOR you. Unless you’re opposed to them becoming hair dressers or something.
My friend’s husband helps her color her hair and even helped her do the frost kit thing, where you put on the plastic cap and pull the hairs through that you want to highlight. He did an excellent job!

Logan gives from the heart, which is going to bode him well all his life.
Fun fact: our first great grandson was born yesterday (July 1st) so he shares your birthday–and his name is Logan, too!!!!!
yeah, you need to do a video of flat-ironining the back of your head–it’ll give that one with the Japanese chewing gum a run for its money!
BTW feeling much better, thanks!

I was gonna say something funny, but then I remembered that I’m not.
Honestly, the way I flatiron the hair in the back is that I put my hair up, and then pull out one piece at a time so I don’t miss any pieces. Takes fucking forever, but it works.
Oh, yes…Meet the Spartans. Now where’s my prize?

Whore.
Second, on the flat iron thing, when you find it, you let me know. I have the same problem!
