Earlier this evening my husband said to me, "I'm going to need you to blog." OK, what now? Seems he's read all of my "6 boring posts" from September. So, not only did I only blog 6 out of 30 days, but they were "boring." Go, me!
Friday night I was home by myself. Hubby was working and Sam was with his dad. I heard a noise and successfully freaked myself out, to the point where I had dialed 9 and 1 before heading upstairs to check out the scene. Needless to say, nothing was amiss. Which was a good thing, because by that point the operator was telling me that if I'd like to make a call, please hang up and try again. I hung up and the phone immediately rang. Damn my dad!
Saturday hubby spent MANY hours blowing out the gutters, the driveway, the deck, and mowing and mulching the yard. My ass stayed inside and devoured half of a book. To reward him I treated at our favorite Mexican restaurant. We settled in at home and watched a movie, then took a stab at the DVR contents. It seems I drank my body weight in wine.
Today has found me feeling like complete ass. When I finally pulled myself out of bed we put on our leather and headed out for a motorcycle ride. Afterwards we got Sam back about 5:30. Hung out with him for a bit, then we fired up the grill for chicken and pork chops. I was still feeling "special" and after watching me struggle to open a box of Macaroni and Cheese for no less than 45 seconds my hubby asked, "Really?" It was THAT bad.
This evening we've spent playing online. My dad sent an email warning not to open any emails with "Invitation" as the subject line. Naturally, I immediately sent him one with exact subject line and the body read, "Did you open this?" He replied, "What are you talking about?" I laughed so freaking hard!
I'll leave you with one of my favorite pictures from Jamaica. (Wish I'd have flexed my legs instead of pointing my toes. Check out hubby's legs! Yum!)
And since my dad was out of town, I raided his picture gallery and came out with a pic that makes me laugh every single time I look at it. My baby!
Tell me that's not funny! Doesn't he look like an old, drunk guy needing a Scotch and a Cigar?

I love the Jamaica photo. That's what a vacation looks like. The other photo does look like an old man. You'll get to embarrass him with that one for years to come.
He looks like little George Burns! Hahahaha!
I still don't understand. Your dad inadvertently made the sound of a burglar? Or you dad was a burglar?
Cute pics! Nice stems - yours are nice too. ;)
That pic of Sam is HILARIOUS. He totally needs a cigar. I want to call him Bugsy and hand him a snifter of Scotch.
I'm glad to hear that your hubby is on board with the blogging! Now I can come kidnap you for that Blog Me Hard Convention we've been talking about.
Outstanding work on the email fake out. My favorite is when the junior customer service rep feels the need to forward an email about an INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS VIRRUS that her girlfriend forwarded to her from her great aunt and she forwards it to the entire IT staff. "Oh hey thanks for warning us. We can cancel all of our subscriptions to our professional organizations now that we have forwarded emails from you to base out online security from. We'll take special precautions from this one because CNN called it the most dangerous virus every created. We'll get right on that. Thanks!"
BTW... there was a man's pair of legs in there? All I saw was yours.
Nice toes. We rode this weekend, too, no leather though. Safety first, unless it's 80 degrees out, then I'm risking wearing my arms down to bloody stumps just to be comfortable.
And the glasses are trendy, I had a pair similar when I was his age. The hat is really what makes it, though.
Dammit, someone needs to invent 'Auto-stalk' so I don't have to remember to check that stupid box.
Your dad calling the phone immediately after you hanging it up..brilliant! I would have screamed SO loud. But..I'm a screamer.
Love the Jamaica photo..it reminds me of the cutest wedding invitation. The couple printed a like picture with the wedding details on the side.
Sam is freaking adorable..even when he looks like he needs a scotch and cigar..hilarious!
what kid DOESN'T need scotch and cigar while playing trains?
That picture of your legs is my favorite. It says it all.
I hate when the serenity of being alone is marred by anxiety. And I think, like Harmony, that if my phone rang as I hung up that a squeal would have come out of me.
Your kid, of course, is a riot.
LOVE the picture of Sam. So why doesn't your hubby post on his own damn blog? I've been following that shit for what seems like forever and he's only posted one stupid time. WTF
Blog Me Hard? what is that? AND WHY WASN'T I INFORMED?! (oh yeah, that's it. ahem. nevermind.)
re: dads and the internets... my dad spends his days opening emails from his right-wing conspiracist (there is a "racist" in conspiracist. heh) relatives. and most of the emails are those shitty .pps's with tinny, Swan Lake music in the background with some sort of hideous message (trying not to get political).
oh, and re: the timing of phone calls? ugh. my dad has thEE worst timing with the phone. and a well-timed phone ring elicits a scream from me every single time.
Stink is Sofa King cute. ;)
Stink is precious. He looks like he's leering at a stripper at a Gentlemen's Club while waiting for his poker chips to be dealt. I love it.
That Jamaica pic is the best! Postcard worthy.
And love that little man..looks like a poker player. Cool shades buddy!
Great pictures.... And how did Woody Allen get here.
Can we all e-mail you Dad? Can we? Can we?
That pic of you and the hubster's legs is way cute!
As for Stink..give that boy a cigar and a drink already LOL
Your hubby has a blog?
Some days opening the mac and cheese box IS a struggle. My husband would rather lick the toilet than start a blog.
Peach, and I have every intention of doing just that!
OM, I thought the same thing!
Mo, neither. I was really on edge and the timing of his phone call scared the crap out of me. (Sorry, I was half lit while posting this.)
Bev, Bugsy? Awesome!!! "Blog Me Hard"...NICE!!! ;)
JP, but, seriously, THIS is the most dangerous virus ever. As opposed to the one he warned me about last week.
Elliott, we only put on the leather because it was chilly. Otherwise, we're like you. He scoffs at me wearing flip flops because of potential damage to my feet. But the tank top, shorts, and unhelmeted head? No problem.
Harmony, I was shaking when I answered the phone. I explained the situation and he laughed at me.
Mary, that's basic Parenting 101.
MtnMama, thank you, it's a fave of mine! In truth, we were on that thing for about 18 seconds. Too freaking hot to sit there and bake.
Courtney, when you started following him I warned you of all the fun you'd have, did I not? And his one and only post was in your honor. Be flattered! ;)
Anon, HI!!!! I have a neighbor that sends no less than 4 political emails a day. And we don't share the same views. Annoying!
Amber, ordinarily the thought of my baby hanging out in a strip club doesn't make me laugh, but your comment did!
JennyMac, post card? Damn! That reminds me that the two we sent to Stink have yet to make it here! WTF?
Mala, we'll all email him and Invitation right after we friend my ex MIL on Facebook. Deal?
OBMJ, long story on the blog. Let's go with "no". Send Bubba over, we need a 4th for Poker night.
Heidi, wow, that's some serious hatred towards the blogosphere! Yikes!
Oh, it sounds like you had a great weekend! Wine, mexican food, movies and reading a book while others work. Can't get any better!
It's always fun to read your posts, so yes, please write more often:-)
Funny picture of your cute kid. And great shot of your fab legs (both of you!)
Have a wonderful Tuesday!
You need to show the picture of your son to his friends and girlfriends when he is older. He is too cute.
The kid looks like Milton Berle in that pic.
I've never actually watched the show, but that picture of Stink makes me wonder if he and Pinky are plotting to destroy the world.
Just sayin'.
I endorse Bev's comments and all comparisons between old school Hollywood icons and Stink. I have to throw in Harry Carey to the mix on that one.
Been awhile since I've ingested my body weight in wine and sounds appealing, but I just can't take the hangover + parenting conundrum. I think I need to find a place to stash the scamp for a day so I can set it aside for pain and regret sans parenting--the price I'm willing to pay for a night of overserving myself. Thanks, SM, you've inspired me.
Sounds like a top weekend. Your kid looks great in that photo. In Wales the local newspaper always runs a couple of pages of birthdays, anniversarys etc. That would be a great photo to put in the paper for his 21st birthday. Well, great for you not for him.
Dreamgirl, a fab weekend for sure! And? My new magazine came in the mail! :)
Blondie, I totally plan on keeping this one for just the right time.
Cary, thanks?
Stu, excellent! Droopy Dog comes to mind as well.
TB, if I've inspired just one parent to get completely hammered then my work here is done.
Rubbish, that is a wonderful idea! Note to self!
Love the pics. And he totally looks like George Burns. So cute.
Good day !.
