There really is an Estonia…

About 8 years ago I had a kidney stone, and wouldn’t you know…I’ve gotten another one. I spent the Thanksgiving holiday in LV and on our first full day back in town I ended up in the ER. It’s been almost a week of straining my pee, and I haven’t passed it yet. Every so often I get some back pain otherwise I am well. While I was sitting in the ER waiting room, hopped up on morphine, some lady had the following conversation with her husband, who was wincing in pain and doing his best to pay attention to her…

“Honey do you remember that movie with Brendan Frasier? The one where he from the past, in that movie they say that he’s from Estonia, (at the point she turns toward the waiting room TV which is tuned into CNN and reporting on the conflict in Estonia), look there really is an Estonia”

Who was it that said, “Better to let people think you a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.”

Also, did anyone notice that on my Dead Marriage Pool post from August that I've called it 2 for 3 so far...Nick and his lady will pull through for me.

Bad Blogger…

For fear of being put on a hobo blogger list, I’ve forced myself to sit down and do more then just read everyone else’s posts. So, what’s been going on…

1. The hubby’s b-day was Friday, and I had a crappy day at work and wasn’t as chipper as I wanted to be. But I did get about 100 friends and family members to with him well via email and pretend like I had nothing to do with it.

2. The baby will be six months old at the end of the month.

3. My older son started Spanish classes and has been walking around the house singing, “red is rojo” to the tune of “Are you sleeping”

4. I’ve been really bad about using my date planner and have been forgetting everything, today it was a hair appointment.

5. My house is such a mess that it looks like someone broke in and ransacked it.

6. I found a friends ex-boyfriend on www.dontdatehimgirl.com.

7. I saw two different car accidents, about 4 hours apart on the same street corner on Thursday, it made me worry that I was cursed…I got over it quickly.

8. I’ve been sucked into the world of reality TV once again…That being said: I want Michael Knight to win Project Runway; I don’t care who wins ANTM, but it appears that the girls are super crazy this year…yippee; and the red necks on the Amazing Race crake me up.

9. My work is putting together a plan incase of a major Flu outbreak, and be being as neurotic as I am, am trying to figure out how to store enough food and water incase we have to hold up in the house for a 6 week period.

10. Speaking of neurotic, I went to see a dermatologist last week to get a odd looking mole checked out, turns out that it was basically a scar, but a mole that I wasn’t worried about looked suspicious to the doc, now I have to get it cut off and sent for testing.

That’s about it for now.

A stroll down memory lane...

Foot in the hole...

Sound familiar anyone?

Shit today, Fuck tomorrow

First “Idiot”, now “Shit”. That’s right; my little angel has said “shit”. The other day at dinner, little boy was running down the list of classmates who’ve said “idiot”, I asked him what he said, to which he responded “I told him he was a yucky boy!” Now he’s moved on to “Shit”, and not just any “Shit”…“Holy Shit”. Actually, it was all said in context (as in “Adam said Holy Shit”), which I’ve convinced myself, makes it better. So, we’ve been come up with alternative things to say:
“Holy Cow”
“Holy Moly”
“Walloping Web Snappers”
“Holy Smokes”
I’m waiting to see what he comes up with next.

Dead Marriage Pool

So, a friend and I have been talking about putting together a Dead Marriage Pool, kinda like a good ol' fashion death pool but only taking about marriage and not people.

#1 - Pam and Kid Rock...really, who are they kidding, she's had implants that will last longer then this marriage.

#2-Brittany and K-Fed...I think she's going to get a VD from him and that will be the last straw.

#3- Nick Cage and Alice...there's like a 20 year age difference, at that point it's just gross, I'm thinking the girl will eventully come to her senses...same goes for Mike Douglas and Cathy Jones.
