anyway, i will try to be better. also, chris told me to post something - and as i duly noted today - i don't want to piss chris off. so here we go!
1. i last left you with a cliff hanger about a secret errand. there were no chipmunks, sorry, but there is a new addition to our family. I wanted to do this with pictures, but...... we got a new car! oooooh, you squeal. oh yes, oooh. we got cash for our beloved clunker Rose (whom I cried over when we left her at the dealership. it still makes me sad), for a pretty new baby. Her name is Stella, which we hope is fresh & hip, while simultaniously sounding like a cute old lady. pictures will come if you're good.
2. last weekend i had a b-i-t-c-h-ing bridal shower with my arizona ladies. it was the shit. the english language can't express the fun i had. maybe french? spanish? farsi? i'll learn another language and let you know. this upcoming weekend is a bachelorette extravaganza (or so i've heard), so stay tuned for an epic picture post.
3. today a very wise parent reinforced what i've been told time & time again: write down all that funny crap that happens at school! so in my effort to re-invigorate blogging i'm going to try and write something that happened everyday. i promise to be as entertaining as possible AND you'll get something to read on a regular basis. let's proceed to today's anecdote (code names are italized):
children and men don't use them
in a discussion on what our bodies are made of, we started labeling all the parts of the body we know (yeah, there are a LOT). we got all the standard bits and even ventured into the inside of the body. Jaws asks about the "things" that come off the heart. Seamore, the forgetful porpoise (heretofore known as Seamore) busts out with: "The are VENTRICALS! Two for blood to go in and two for blood to go out! See my chest!" and lifts his shirt up to reveal a scar from heart surgery. After a lengthy discussion, Ginger shoots up his hand. I'm expecting something about blood or hearts, but he enthusiastically says: "HEY! We forgot about NIPPLES!" as he pinches himself.
the. end.
