Dude. Wait. What?

So this afternoon Logan had his little friend K over from next door. Sometime during that afternoon K pointed out to Logan that he was calling me “Mommy”. And somehow that was turned around in Logan’s head to “Mummy”.

At that point, the house got very noisy, what with the kids screaming and running from me at every chance they got.

And it got even noisier when I refused to let them wrap me head to toe in toilet paper.

Kids are weird.

I guess dreams don’t come true

I admit, I’m one of those people who are absolutely smitten with the novel Twilight. And more to the point, the Hot vampire Edward. You might think that reading is a safe pastime, but even when you are only reading about vampires, the likelihood of bloodshed is high.

Happily I sat
A comfy chair, Nothing on,
except underwear

Quite lost in my book
I wished that Edward was real
Twilight is awesome

Then - Sadness - Oh No!
Not paying attention when
the dog caught the cat

Blood drips down my neck
Like a dream come true - or not
cats are not vampires

True Story.

In under ten words:

How was your weekend?

(mine was good - filled with cake, coffee and family)

Previously on BPR…

I’m going to be upfront with you all and tell you that I will be rather distracted while typing this out becuase the second episode in Smallville Season seven is currently playing in our DVD player. And might I point out that while I may refrain from posting during a date night with hubs, I am so dedicated to blogging that even Smallville, my favorite TV show EVER, will not keep me from the typey typey!

The past two days have been pretty damn awesome! Friday night Hubs and I shipped the kids off the the In-Laws and went into the city for DATE NIGHT! We chose to see Death Race, which was pretty good, but not awesome. We chose not to go for coffee based on the fact that the last four times we have tried to actually GO to coffee, they have been closed due to “lack of staff”, Fuckers just can’t seem to understand how important coffee is to me! Instead we came home, half watched the Friday FrightMares, and were in bed by 12:30. Hubs fell asleep pretty much immediately, probably ‘cus he was up at 4;30 for work, but I stayed up to read a bit more of Twilight. This is my third time through the book, and if anything, It’s better than the first reading.

Today we woke up after 13 hours of sleep (YAY!) and went shopping. I love shopping. Well I don’t really like the spending money part, but I sure love the bringing stuff home part. After the putting away of the grocery part, we headed to my In-laws for some turkey dinner. With stuffing! And turkey! with mashed potatoes! And stuffing! And some turkey! And then some corn! Oh and some Ice Cream Cake for the Father in Law’s birthday, which was yummy becuase of the added floor and sock taste!

Floor and sock taste isn’t really a new DQ flavor, it’s what happens when you let a distracted eight year old carry a cake.

So then I was twittering with KentuckyGirl, she has a new Etsy shop, and is selling her cards. They aren’t just any cards, they are pretty damn cool, and she is (IMO) selling them for way less than they are worth. Anyway. She is making me a special card to give my granny for her Birthday In November. My Granny sends us all cards on our birthdays, and since I am such an unthinking bitch, I rarely think to send her one for herself. But not THIS year! This year, granny’s card will be Teh Bomb!

Where was I going with all of this? I really don’t know, But Clark’s cousin Cara lost her spaceship and they are trying to find it before it explodes and blows up the earth and I really can’t concentrate on anything  because Lois Lane just freaking found a Space Ship!

So yeah. Later Days!

It’s Not Saturday!

Another one of those annoying, hard to follow blog posts are about to be typed. Please try and keep up.

Ahem.

You should know by now that I write my posts in the late evening, so when I am saying shit like today I clubbed a baby seal…, I obviously do not mean your today, I mean your yesterday. Except for those of you who read BPR in the late evening, you people have to try and read both backwards and forwards to understand the true time line of the post.

Got that?

So. Today I thought, right up until I had an argument about it with my father in law, that it was Friday. Unfortunately it was not Friday, although your today it is, today is Thursday, which is now your yesterday.

And the fact that I spend the entire day thinking it was Friday when in fact Friday was the next day (or to be helpful, today) just screws up my entire night. My Thursday night. That’s right now and/or yesterday depending when you get here.

In any case today was a bust! See you Friday!
