I’m Just Sayin

1) It’s new car day! My current lease car is due, and today I get my brand spanking new car.  I think there is nothing in the world that beats that new car smell!  Mmmmmmm

2) Emilee is questioning the validity of Santa. I saw her thinking face on, and wondered what was coming.  Sure enough, she asks, “Remember when we were at the mall in Florida? We saw that Santa sitting there?”  I nodded.  ”Well, that’s not the same Santa that WE saw this year.”  Dammit.  I am really starting to get nervous when I see her Thinking Face.

3) Googlie came into work today and immediately pointed to his feet and said, “I bought new shoes.”  I looked at his new shoes and said, “I don’t give a shit.”

4) I was ordering some Christmas presents for Emilee from Amazon.  Admittedly, I was in a hurry when I was doing this. I knew exactly what I wanted and clicked away when I found it.  Four days later, a box from Amazon arrived. I put it amongst her Christmas gifts for wrapping.  The next day, more toys arrived.  The same with the day after, and the day after that.  Puzzled, I opened these boxes to find toys I didn’t order.  I went to Amazon to review my order.

*Blink*

That’ll teach me. In my hurried state of ordering the ONE Christmas gift I wanted, I somehow clicked on the “Add all five to cart”.  Yup, $200 later, Em will now be the proud owner of the Crayola Glow Dome, the Crayola Crayon Maker, Crayola Color Explosion Glow Board, Crayola Color Wonder Magic Light Brush and the Crayola Glow Station.

This is, of course, in addition to all of the other gifts I had already bought her.

And yes, I know I can return them.  But I can also afford them, and ya know, I love my girl.

This, That and The Other

1) This morning I received a text message from McP.  Remember him?  The boy I went to grade school with that I dated briefly?  It said this:

I hope you don’t mind that I think of you once in a while.

I sort of had Blank Face at that.  I don’t know what to do with that so I did nothing.  It’s sweet, in an almost-stalker kind of way.

2) The word, Dude.

I mean, it can be used for so many reasons!  A friend sent this to me, saying it made her think of me when she saw it.  I’m infamous for using the word Dude.

This is possibly one of the best commercials.  Ever.

3) Saturday night I have plans to have some fun with LetEmBreathe.  SO EXCITED.  I did, of course, invite ShaNaNa and made her promise not to drink a bottle of vodka before arriving this time.  I do believe my Jackpot is attending as well, should be an interesting night.  I hope I don’t knock a bar stool over this time.

4) F Marry Kill …

Tiger Woods
Levi Johnston
Owen Wilson

GO.

Hand Motions, Grounded! and Other Possibly Offensive Stuff

1) Yesterday I was telling Emilee a story about something her dad did once upon a time. Just a funny story about her daddy, being the funny guy he is.

She stared at me after I finished and said, “That’s fiction!”

*Blink*

WTF?  How can you not love my kid?  Seriously.

2) WARNING:  I apologize in advance for anyone that may be offended at this one.

The game, F Marry Kill. Have you heard of this? You give people three choices, three people choices to be exact. Their job is to kill one, marry one and well, ahem, fuck one. And they can only choose one for each. This is typically a game that is best played when drinking methinks, but regardless, it can be a funny game. Celebrities are used often, of course. So one time, my choice was the following:

Christian Slater
Corey Haim
Scott Baio

My mouth dropped open! COREY HAIM! I immediately killed Scott Baio, had sex with Christian Slater and married Corey Haim. WOO HOOO! Easy choices. Sometimes though, you sorta puzzle around cuz you don’t know WHO to kill.

Seriously, what a terrible game.

But my evil side thinks is one of the most fun games ever.

I’m going to hell.

3) I type approximately 97 words per minute. I just noticed my keyboard has the letters E and O rubbed off. I do not find this interesting, yet I have to wonder. Do my fingers push on the E and O more so than any other letter? Hmmmm …

4) My dad grounded ShaNaNa and I when we were in Florida one night. Apparently not calling when you’re going to be late (very late)  is still not cool with your dad, even when you’re 37 years old.

*Shame Face*

I admit to laughing at this though, I haven’t been grounded in a long time!

5) I mentioned the German guys we met in yesterdays post. One of the boys consistently wore bowling shoes. Like, as a part of his outfit. When ShaNaNa pointed that out to him, he says, “I bowl!” with a hand motion. You know, the motion of bowling.  Except …
