QUOTE OF THE DAY

"The dumber people think you are, the more surprised they're going to be when you kill them." ~ William Clayton

(That quote was chosen specially, in honor of a friend who was confronted with her own dumbness today on more than one occasion.)

~ Sent the girls off to daycare again and sat down with my hot coffee. Seriously... does life get any better than that?

~ Looked at my To Do list for the day and decided there was no way in hell I was going to do half of it. Some days you just know better than to try to productive.

~ Did absolutely nothing but play online until about 11:00.

~ Talked to a friend on the phone and was thrilled to find out she's just as sweet in real life (on the phone at least) as she is on the internet.

~ Got busted smoking a cigarette in my flannel pajamas at noon by my neighbor. Nope. I'm not lazy at all, Faye. I swear.

~ Decided it was my "hint" to get my ass in the shower and like, get dressed or something.

~ Showered, and threw some non-PJs clothing on my body.

~ Ate a disgusting concoction of chow mien noodles and shredded cheese in a bowl with Italian dressing dumped on them.

~ Ate another bowl after I finished the first.

~ Made fun of someone behind their back.

~ Wondered how it is that I can hate catty girls and yet, I've become one.

~ Ate about 5 brownies throughout the day. Oink.

~ Was a little bummed when Steve got home from work around 2:30. Not that I don't love the guy. And not that I don't want to spend time with him. But when he's here, I can't sit in front of computer all day without feeling lazy and without getting "the look", or worse yet, a comment from him.

~ Decided to make the best of it and had fantastic afternoon sex.

~ Realized afterwards that I hadn't laughed even once during "the act." This is a big step for me. I have some serious issues with daytime sex and apparently, I can overcome them if I try hard enough. LOL!

~ I went and got the propane tank for our grill filled.

~ Started marinating the big ass steak we had our sights on for dinner.

~ Went to pick the girls up at my mom's, leaving Steve here, working on the joists around the window in the kitchen.

~ Came home ready to chug a beer (it's amazing what my two children can do to your nerves on the short 4 - 5 mile drive between my mom's house and ours), and found Steve completely pissed off because he had made a stupid, careless mistake while cutting the wood and had wasted hours of work and about $50, and set himself back a day.

~ Laughed (I couldn't help it), when during his tirade at himself, he said, "You know what they say... measure once and cut twice." Um hon? See, that could very well be what your problem was tonight. You kinda got that wrong. I literally almost pissed myself laughing.

~ We all sat down for dinner (in separate rooms, using separate snack trays... sigh) and enjoyed the big ass marinated steak. Mmmm...

~ Played more Scooby Doo video games with Grace, and again, found myself getting annoyed whenever she didn't make it over the hole in the roller coaster track. (She's FOUR, Allison! Get a freakin' grip, will ya? Geez. I... must... seek... therapy...)

~ Put the girls to bed and watched an interesting story on Primetime about a husband who was trying to kill his wife slowly with rat poison. Seriously dude, can't you get any more creative than that? That's pathetic.

~ Ate more Pringles with cream cheese. Mmmmm....
