The club

The new boy has some impressive fangs, the old boy is not bothered about them. They are both now a part of the same club, the no-balls club, it's not an exclusive club but if you want to join there is some surgery involved ;)

Bob Barker would be proud.

Snow

Lots of snow. Freezing temperatures. And the UPS man wore shorts today. Short shorts.

I said to him 'I can't believe you're wearing shorts!'
He said 'It's a good day to stay warm inside!'

He is a Doug Heffernan lookalike, from King of Queens.

Pants

We went to the mall today, I needed pants. All my jeans have holes in them now, it's a definite side effect of crawling around on the floor all day long with my toddler. There is carpet in this house so I believe that's tearing up the jeans even faster. I still love the carpet, it definitely dampens the blows to the toddler when he falls, trips, tumbles, stumbles, jumps, runs, or just walks on it. I don't even really mind having to vacuum it two to three times a week (two cats and a toddler will do that to you).

The mall was crazy busy, but we were able to get in and out of there fairly quickly. We went to the Abercrombie store to buy a pair of jeans for my brother, holy moly $80, brother you are a label whore, there I said it, it may hurt but you know it's the truth! I got two pants in Old Navy for $30 dude! That being said, I know that you get what you pay for and my pants will probably disintegrate years before his will.

2010

Bring it on 2010!

I'm going to try the blogging thing again, maybe I'll last a little longer this time. I think this year will be a year of changes, I think, or not, oh I don't know.

Right, let's go with things I do know, that always seems like a logical thing to do...

Then again I don't really feel like you can ever really truly KNOW what's going to happen. You can plan and schedule and make lists, but life, just like a toddler, pretty much dictates what happens, no matter how deep you are in the river denial about the whole thing.

So, I know we pretty much only have one thing surely planned for this year. My wonderful husband is going to graduate, in May hopefully.

After that, I don't know what will happen. Yes, there are options and possibilities, but nothing concrete as of yet. And that is a very weird feeling to pretty much know how your life is going to be through May and then, whoosh, you're just hanging in the air.

I'm not worried about it though, no use in worrying, it won't change anything and it'll just lead to me eating more chocolate covered eclairs filled with bavarian custard cream (sooooo good) than are good for me. A personal note, half a box is good, a whole box, not so good.

2010, do you want me to call you twenty-ten or twothousandandten? What will you do?
