This is an actual excerpt from an e-mail I got from my friend, Aaron. Today at 2pm in the kitchen, an interpretive dance contest. I’ll be having a pint at the Britannia when it happens. He is well paid for this job, too. I think it’s okay if we’re all a little bit jealous.

One time, when I was at girl scout camp, I woke up in the middle of the night and when I turned on my flashlight I still couldn’t see anything. I thought I had gone blind, but really the batteries on my flashlight were just dead.

Yesterday, my doorbell rang at 11:00am. It was my next door neighbor. He asked me if I knew how to tie a tie. He explained that he had to be at a funeral in 30 minutes, and his wife was at work. 1) That was pretty cute. 2) Why hasn’t he learned how to tie [...]

Alison told me one time that somebody found her blog by Googling “the biggest black boobs in St. Louis”. I laughed so hard I was crying. I have tried to get to her site this way many times, so it would look like lots of people got to her page that way, but it won’t [...]

If you read Alison’s blog, you may have already done this, but… It’s a Google searching, but you can win stuff, so you go here and sign up, or here. According to Alison, if you sign up as my friend, or her friend, if one of us wins, we all win. You can win ipods, [...]

Yesterday, my parents came by on their way home from vacation. They were having Squad withdrawl and couldn’t wait any longer. The Squad was attacking their Grandmother and my Dad was making a phone call and I heard him telling the person on the other end “No, I’m at the babies’ house”. My Dad also [...]

Where are we going? Chocolate Mountain. Where are we going? Chocolate Mountain. Where are we going? Chocolate Mountain. Where are we going? Chocolate Mountain! I used to get normal people songs stuck in my head. Now it’s just this over and over. I know that kids like repetitiveness, which is part of the reason Dora [...]

This is a picture from when Claudia was possessed by the devil, and he made her climb up on the Leap Frog Learning Table. It must have been an evil force. I mean, she knows she is not allowed to climb up on the table. (Plus, the eyes are a dead giveaway)

Well. Becky has showed us the Walken thing isn’t real. Oh, well. The Squad will both now say “Uh oh!” then throw their cups on the floor. I’m down another .8 pounds. I’m reading “The Accidental Tourist” by Anne Tyler, and there was just an incidental character who one of the main people went to [...]

I got this idea from The Wicked Truth, and I thought it was pretty funny. If you care to let me know what your pseudonyms are, you can e-mail me, or put them in the comments. Here goes. 1. EXOTIC FOREIGNER ALIAS: (Favorite Spice / Last Foreign Vacation Spot): Ola, soy Cumin Tahiti. 2. SOCIALITE [...]

If you have more than one spouse, try not to get sick. Oops. This one is for anyone familiar with Tony’s story about riding the alligator. This goes way beyond letting your kids drink when they are underage. Before Jack was born, and they didn’t know he was a boy yet, his parents were considering [...]
