HAHAHAHA! I heard that last night on the comedy channel and was hysterical for a good five minutes afterwards... although in my defense, I was exhausted and had just spent nine hours in a grocery store.
So, I spent the day doing nothing, so far anyway. I managed to get Ventrilo installed and got Davey to come, too and then they all teamed up on me... but I can handle it it's pretty cool. I talked to Adrian Michaels, Rakuten, Lost Cause, Tob, and Davey for a while. It was pretty easy to in
We were eating, and my son does this snap thing with his fingers while having some ridiculous, but harmless, one-upping contest with my daughter and Rich says, "Was that a gay snap? Like, is that one of his OGT's?"
So this is me tattling on him for using an acronym properly and knowing what it means
Then we had to discuss the difference in snaps, like 50's jive snapping versus the 'FABULOUS' snap... and it was just really f**king funny!
Besides that... Steve got irate on my behalf
So Joey is the man today. My hero! The one with the gigantic... brain that he uses for good and not evil... mostly I made a myspace a while back so I could see pictures of my nephew, but I hardly ever use it, and when I showed it to Jeff, he said it was girly... which I am, and it was... so anyway, I tried to make it cooler looking and ended up screwing it all up... big surprise so I talked my cowboy into fixing it for me. Then he said, "lol what the hell did you do to this?" Which goes to sh
This gorgeous boy I know (thanks Vin ) gave me this link last night and I took this test and this is what it says about me. Pretty dead on accurate if you ask me... If you'd like to take this, too... http://kts2.personalityzone.com > Take the KTS-II > Take It! Then register... it's free, and answer the questions... and to get the additional info, you have to join, which is also free... Rich took it too. He agrees it's accurate, but he's not sure he likes that he is what he is.

Happy last day of 2007 everyone! Kay that's done...
So I just finished making home made salsa and it's SOOOOOO yummy, but now, as I'm eating it, I keep licking my fingers and they're spicy! I washed my hands three times since I made it... freakin' peppers...
So update on my 12 year-old... she managed to talk me into grounding her for a second week by being over at that same kid's house again, with those same boys, while she was grounded, and then lying about it. This is how it went
... or is it just mine?
I swear this girl is gonna be the death of me... I went outside with Matty at 3:20 to get in the car to go do some errands before I had to be back here by 4:30 to let Annemarie in the house after practice... I see her down the street in her best friend
For the love of good golly god and all the little children dont see Fred Claus!
Need I say more?
I can, but I feel dumberer now having watched it.
And why did they show a tomboy with a bat but not a fabulous *snap* boy with a hoola hoop?
So yeah BAD MOVIE ask Viv, (who for the record chose said movie cause she didn't want to see Saw IV or Beowulf (which sounded awesome)) look at me rock the double perenthi .... (yeah I made it up) And don't listen to her, she claimed I chose it,
Well, one of them is. The other is like this... pubescent, teenage girl full of angst and drama, someone save me please?!
I got home from work last night and found this on my computer... It's my son, who is six, talking to Tony.
Tony: psssst
Viv: 0
Tony: ...
Viv: it's matthew
Tony: hi matthew...can you ask daddy a question for me? ask him if tony can iron his tie
Viv: he said no
Tony: how are you?
Viv: gooooooooooooooooood
Viv: how or you????????????????????
So, yeah... San Francisco.
Steve, Rich, and I got there Friday morning and took some crazy underwater subway from Oakland to San Francisco and then stopped at the Visitor's Center that my brother who used to live there for ten years told us to stop at to get free maps and stuff, only to be assaulted by two different homeless people, who will from here on out be known as the interesting people and that area, the interesting area, likely because I had some giant map unfolded looking for the 'y
My Sweetie is gone for a week, I miss him and it's been one day. I miss him to the point that I'm sad enough that I hope he's not feeling like I am (which happens to us a lot) and entertaining fantasies that he's secretly coming here to surprise me.
My Angel is off with hot boys in itty, bitty pants while I have something of interest to tell him. At least I know that in five more days I'll be hugging him for real again.
My Luvuh ... well I have no idea where he is, and I guess by all
"Mom?"
"Hmm?"
"What do all beaches need?"
"Sand?"
"No..."
"Water?"
"No, I'll give you a hint. It starts with L."
"Uhh... Light?"
"NO! Lifeguards."
"Okay... good idea."
"Except, sometimes they have to go."
"Go where?"
"Out."
"Out where?"
"With their hotties."
"Did you say hotties?"
"Yeah."
"Umm... what's that?"
"You know... their wives."
"Umm, okay, but that's not very nice."
"Yes, it is."
"Well, it's not very res
One last thing I beg you please, just before you go
I've watched you fly on paper wings half way round the world
until they burned up in the atmosphere and sent you spiraling down
Landing somewhere far from here with no one else around
To catch you falling down
And I'm looking at you now
And I can't tell if you're laughing
Between each smile there's a tear in your eye
There's a train leaving town in an hour
It's not waiting for you and neither am I

I was going to write all about how my son came home with these papers in his backpack that say that a first grader, thus far into the school year, should be reading 30 words in 60 seconds and that when tested, he reads 27 words in 14 seconds. Now I know that I'm math challenged, I'll be the first to step up and say so, but if I'm right... that means he reads four times faster than he should. Further, by the end of the school year, they should be able to read 60 words in 60 seconds, which he, aga
...blog since it's been so long. For that I can only blame ALL OF YOU! KIDDING! Relax... I just meant that I've been spending SO much time in the last two weeks getting the last chapter of FBTE finished and then Part 3 of UTBOS done by the deadline for the anthology. It was down to the wire... literally! Like... type, type, type, send to Steve for html-ing (like my new verb?), shower, work, come home, name the thing, send it into CJ mere minutes before the deadline. Anyway, I hope you guys en
Since you asked so nicely
So there has been much penis talk lately... (in regards to the final chapter of FBTE) Thank you to all who contributed, since we all know I lack such parts... though I am rather fluent in... oh nevermind
So I'm not sure how you guys are going to feel about 'The End' but it feels like it's time. There has been much debate about 'how' to end a story, or what is the best or most fulfilling way for the reader. Even Rich, who never reads , I know... trust me, has
So, gosh... it's been a long time since I blogged.
Both my kids had a birthday in the last week leaving the tally at: Daughter - 12, Son - 6.
So, Friday was my daughter's birthday and we were going to take her out to dinner at a restaurant, her choice, and we were waiting for Rich to get home from work so we could go. My daughter comes running inside to tell me that this girl that used to live next door to us for a few months, but has since moved out into a hotel, put makeup on my new
My angel ... Dezlboi, surprised me today with something that really touched my heart. Maybe it's cause I know the circumstances from which this was born, but it's also so much more than that. You know when you know someone, you love them, and you watch them struggle and grow through hard situations only to come out the other side stronger than before? It's like... I'm PROUD of him for doing what he needed to do, and though he's not singing to me, he means every word. I can feel the bravery, the
... and Fresno is weird.
I waited up for Rich Saturday night till 2 am, or at least I tried to, and then we slept about three hours. I got up and took a shower and got ready to go, woke Rich up to get ready, who took considerably less time to get ready, didn't even shave, and so he had that sexy, scruffy look going on. We get in the car and I drive to Steve's thinking I'll be sweet and he can sleep longer, but apparently when I drive, he can't sleep since he's too busy looking over his shoul
If you have no idea who S t e v e n is or need to evaluate some evidence... you can do that here S t e v e n's Gallery I, myself, would like to point out numbers 106, 101, 95, 77, 70, 48, 45, 44, 33, 32, 30, 25, 11, 6, 3, 2, 1... so like... all of them
Anyway, besides that, there's not a lot to tell really. I've been working, and tired, and my house is a disaster so I'm going to round up the troops as soon as I'm done here and make them help clean up since this is what happens when I work t
So my SUPER BIG BOY started first grade yesterday. I know SO early... but we have year round elemetary school here so... anyway. I was sorta pissed off yesterday when Rich and I went to drop him off cause they had the walkway all blocked off with signs saying 'No Parents Beyond This Point'... I'm like... yeah, he's 5. I know we were just here last night to see what class he was in and who his teacher was, and we walked over and showed it to him and where he is supposed to line up, but... yeah,
Anything that doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. God only gives you what you can handle. When the going gets tough, the tough, get going. Etc...
Who decided I needed to be this able or any stronger than I already am, which if I do say so, is pretty damn strong already. I have had one heck of a time since Wednesday. Let me see if I can explain this in a way that will make sense... So, where I live, across the street is a neighbor, Jesse, and he has been my neighbor for the last 27 years si
... with Steve. For some reason, he and I always seem to find a way to discuss the fundamentals about things, and I find it rewarding and fascinating. Uplifting, and the moments of clarity that come from thinking things through, seeing all sides of it, are immensely valuable. I think I'll ask him when we're done if I can post it... FANTASTIC
Anyway, moving on for now...
I made a resume OMG! I'm only partailly sure why I even did that, but there are times when I think to myself, 'dammi

Want me to tell you a bedtime story?

Please

Oookaaaayyyyy

Long, long ago
Tobias says:
Princess viv, who was 30, but still looked as sexy as 18, was captured by a huge dragon
Tobias says:
The dragon captured her because princess viv was the best anthology writer in the whole country and the dragon loved anthologies
Tobias says:
So her handsome and brave husband, prince rich, came to rescue her
Arguments for pouting:
At the time of this blog post, 222 of you have read my last blog, and no one commented except my Angel, and that was only cause I whined to him about how no one was commenting and how worried I was.
I *thought* that everyone here knew by now that they could say anything to me and not have to feel anything but completely comfortable about it. I mean I share huge pieces of myself all the time between my blog, and my stories, and my characters.
It's possible this
