I know I’m reaching outside of the norm here, but I cannot stand “Desperate Housewives”. I don’t know why, not sure if it’s the context, or the actress’. Not sure really I just know that the show and everything about it just gets under my skin. I could easily rant quite a bit about ways that it gets to me, but thats not the point today.

Earlier this afternoon as I was cleaning house I heard my daughter “jammin” out to the song “Juicy” by Better Than Ezra. I love “Juicy” by Better Than Ezra and not only am I happy that they came out of the woodwork again the song is terribly “tuneful”. Now every time I catch myself singin’ to the music I have to cringe at the thought of what most people associate the song with.

I was in a store and the song came on and I was humming under my breath and the lady next to me said “Oh, I love this show! Have you seen this weeks episode? I can’t wait for season two…” What could I say? I didn’t want to outwardly tell this lady I dislike the show making her feel like I just told her what horrible taste in television she has. So I just told her I don’t watch much TV I just really like the song, but the whole conversation gave me a twinge of disgust for the stupid show ruining a perfectly catchy song for me.

Why do good songs have to be attached to bad soundtracks? AND why do people assume that just because you like the song your a nut for the movie/show?

I am so sick of the way that people perceive stay-at-home moms. I’m tired of the condescending looks and that baby tone of voice people get when they learn that I do not leave my house every day to go to work. My least favorite question that people ask right after I’ve told them my un-worthy profession is “So aren’t you bored all day? Not going to work every day would drive me nuts.” BORED?! I don’t have time to be bored and even if I gave myself the chance to be bored I would be opening myself, my day and my household to any number of disasters.

These people that seem to think that all I do is sit on the couch and watch my kids run around all day and maybe do a little cleaning if I feel like it confuse me. All I want to know after they talk to me that way is what is it like in their house? Are there not a million loads of laundry to do? Or how about the constant battle over the TV channel while your fighting everyone to find something more useful to do? Is my house unusually busy?

YAY! Everyone is well again, and what a freakin roller coaster. Let me tell ya kids can keep you on your toes at all times, but when they are sick you can’t help but slow down and cuddle. Al sounded yucky for a few more days but we knew she was getting better so we just waited it out. Now everything is back to normal and she rockin across the floor again. Thanks everyone for the well wishes :luv .

Now, as if just in time, it’s time to start getting ready. We are goin on vacation :wave, and as mom it’s my job to get all the ducks in a row. I’m not really lookin forward to the packin but I’ve decided to tell myself that I will deffinately forget things. Instead of trying not to forget things I’m trying some reverse psych on myself. I have made a target “things-I-forgot” number. Mind you this is not alist of things I will forget (that would just be stupid) it’s just a number. So if I reach that number I will be happy, things are normal and all is right in the universe.

I am going to be so busy this week it’s rediculous :phew

Back a couple posts ago I had told you guys I had some good news. I didn’t want to share though till it was set in stone. Well….. I have just become the new designer of the Feline Friendz website. I know it’s not a big company and that I’m not getting paid (it’s a donation) but I am giddy that I am finally getting to make a site for a “business”. I’m also tickled to be helping out a local non-profit that I total support. So I’ll be back with little bits for ya as we go and soon you’ll see their link everywhere cause I really want folks to check them out. There is more good news but alas I want to wait to share :*

Short post, really vague I know but I’ll be back after I chat with Jeweasle. I got some things I wanna share with her first :thumbs .

BRB

The baby is sick and I’m tired :ball . My last couple of days have been a bitch. Poor lil Al caught Mo’s cold and she is miserable. We took her to the doc yesterday cause she was wheezing and got sent home with a nebulizer. So now I have to give her these stupid breathing treatments 3 times a day. I don’t even think they are workin.

She is still wheezing and it even seems like it’s getting worse, and I don’t know what to do. I’ve called the doc but they never call back fast enough for me :dunno . Her cough is wretched and she is a monster snot ball. She keeps reminding me that she feels yucky with her little *__pfft__ . Thats all she has said for the last 3 days.

So I’m very tired and not getting anything done cause I don’t want to do anything but comfort her right now :comfort

*_A little update_* I ended up taking her into the doc again today and it turned out I was right. The breathing treatments weren’t working B| Now she has an ear infection too. So I’ve come home with an arm full of drugs I have to give her, but hopefully this time it will all work. We’ll see.

Well I’m zoned. I have a tendancy to go into stealth mode when I’m determined to finish somthin. I’ll post up a littl preview soon, but right now I just feel like gettin it closer to finished Jeweasle could use the pick-me-up :luv . I’ll give you a hint though; it’s pink, and orange, and yellow, and I’m in love with it :#( . Felt like postin somethin and so here I am. Blah. I’ll be back cause I have some wicked good news thanks to Dardinelle, but I wanna confirm it all first before I do the happy dance B) .

I found a couple quizzes on my buddies sites so I thought I would do them and post up my results. Whats the point of doing em if you don’t share what a freak you are with the world eh? [__more__]

Well it took me long enough thats true, but I’m finally here.  It’s nice to have a place to put my feet. :)  To spare us a long (really long) post all I’m going to say for now is that real life necesitated a leave of absence.  Things have changed drastically in my life and so my online life is still taking some adjustment.

Anyhoot now I’ve got a little place to blog.  Share my thoughts and “try” to interact *lol*.  I’m hoping I can come up with some good topics for my pals to weigh in on.  Of course you know I have to succumb to some guilty pleasures of posting stupid quizzes and gimmicks, but I promise I’ll try to keep it to a minimum.

–By the way I’m really happy at how fast this thing set up and the template fell together :thumbs and I’m very pleased with the colors :) but I’m not sure how long the purple will be staying.
