Not Quite Fascinating

J: so [Bob's Dog] keeps eating [J's cat]’s food and [J's cat] keeps eating his food.
G: yeah, that happens
G: yeah, you should try to have TWO dogs, on TWO different dog foods and then two cats
G: it’s just all over the place
J: how long has your mom been gone?
G: she’s back now
J: oh
G: She was gone a week
J: it just seemed like her dog was with you for a long time. i’m sure it seemed longer to you…
G: LOL
G:I know
G: well overall for the summer I think she was with us a month
G: or so it seemed!
J: lol

G: Okay, I hung my signs in my bedroom. Now I just pray they don’t fall on our heads when we’re sleeping because I bought a BUNCH of hangers to put on the back (like 2-3 each sign!) and Vince only put ONE on there
J: LOL!!!
J: that might hurt

G: I’m getting ready to mess with Boy1
G: he goes to this chat room for bakugan.
G: and he turns off his monitor like he’s doing something bad every time we walk up behind him
G: so “Boy1’s MOMMY” is going to be joining his chat room.
G: *bwaaaaaahahahahahahaha*
J: LOL!!!
J: you’re the most awesome mom evah!
G: I just have to find which one! There’s 10 kajillion and I can’t find my parental controls thingy!

G: okay, this is taking way longer than it should
G: this is retarded. In order to see anything in the parental controls I have to have the @#$@# software on my computer and log in each time I use it.
J: what good is that? how can you be a sneaky parent when it’s so complicated???
G: I know……..now it’s just taking forever
G: like I have a 14.4 modem or something

G: Boy2 is laying flat on his stomach on the upstairs walkway corner watching The Big Bang Theory
G: sneakily
G: sort of
J: lol!
G: Vince threw his shoe at him. Not to hit him, just to land right in his face. It scared the poopoo out of him
J: LOL!

J: have fun at the lake today?
G: yeah we did
G: I will probably regret the tubing tomorrow but it was fun
G: how is the kitty?
G: brb, I am getting in the shower
J: i think she may have fleas
J: either that or the advantage stuff he put on her irritated her skin
G: awww
G: that stuff doesn’t even work
J: yeah i’m not going to waste a bunch of money on it
J: i think someone is smitten with her
G: we tried 3 things on Dog and the only thing that worked is the $7 flea/tick collar
G: she hasn’t had a tick since then
G: I came upstairs to go ahead & get in the shower early
G: and Vince comes in the bathroom “Just leave the water on when you’re done, I’m doing to jump in after you.”
G: Um, well how do you suggest I DRY OFF with the water running
J: men…
G: so then as soon as I did get out, I came to get my undies and turn around to go back in and he’s closed the door & is in the shower
G: so I’m DRY & itchy and really need some LOTION!!!!!

J: devil wears prada is on FX btw…
G: oh yes, I’ve been watching it for 30 minutes!
J: we’re watching hp

G: oh, we’re watching The Natural
J: that movie reminds me of my dad

G: OMG, Boy2………watching a movie with him is a beating
J: lol!
G: he asks 100 questions
G: per minute
G: I’m trying to think of the one he asked earlier……..I’m like, “BOY2, we have just seen what you have seen. We do not know the background any more than you!”
J: LOL!
J: sounds like my mom!
G: Boy1 isn’t great either
G: I don’t know why they think we know!
G: even if we’ve seen it. JUST SIT AND WATCH IT
J: oh good lord… megan fox is hosting the season premier of SNL
G: barf
G: Okay, I think we could’ve just watched the last 5 minutes of hte movie with Boy2 & we’d have all been happier
J: LOL!
J: i just watched Ben Stiller trying to explain Twitter to Mickey Rooney…
G: oh that’s so funny, I saw that the other day
G: I keep telling Vince to watch it
G: Boy2 is trying to compare this to Rookie of the Year (the one where the kid broke his arm and got mega strong & played for the Cubs)
G: I had like $300 in my F21 cart.
G: I finally pared it down some
G: but I need to get a dress for [friends]’s wedding so to actually get a nice dress it’s going to be the same cost as 1/2 a F21 wardrobe
J: that’s true
G: their dressy dresses are all too short unfortunately
J: yes, they are very short
J: do you know is [humane society] open tomorrow?
G: J Crew has everything summer on sale
G: Should be
G: and then an extra 20% off
J: i’m getting a cat. tomorrow.
G: yay!
J: what are you guys doing tomorrow?
G: I’m pretty sure we’re going to the lake
G: otherwise I’d go kitty shopping with you!
J: well if you change your minds let me know
G: this girl posted on her blog one she found in the bushes behind her house. it was so cute, I wish she was nearby I’d have gone & gotten it and told Vince I found it in the bushes behind our house
J: LOL!
G: Boy2 said he saw a little orange cat on our porch the other night. But I’ve never seen it since so i’m guessing it was a fox
G: when I was a kid cats showed up at our house all the time. THat never happens here. We just get rabbits
G: or the dog with the dragging balls that lives on College Street
J: i found the kitty i want but it was brought to the shelter on 5/18/09… doubt it’s still there and if it is it is not a kitty anymore! [pic]
G: awwwwww
G: they usually keep that updated pretty well
G: that is a lot like the one the girl found in the bushes
J: i want a grey one

J: Krystal
J: but i would take Kiwi too if Bob would let me!
G: awwwwwwwwww
G: I would take Kiwi
G: so cute
J: Bob won’t let me have both
G: jerk
J: i’ll bring Kiwi to you
G: okay
G: hide it in my bushes
J: LOL!

G: Boy2 & Vince are watching Iron Chef
G: I don’t know which one likes it more
G: even though it’s WAY PAST BED TIME!
J: well, i think i’m going to call it a day even i Boy2 isn’t
G: we just argued about that
G: he wants to sleep on our floor now
J: imagine that
J: lol!
J: oh, come on mom…
J: he is your baby…
G: he is cute
J: lol!!!
J: oh yeah….
J: so [J's Friend] had THE talk with [her daughter] today
G: oh boy!
G: LOL
J: yeah, she kept saying, “MOM! I don’t need to know all that…”
G: that’s one reason not to homeschool……they already know everything.
G: you can try to tell them but they already know
J: oh yeah
G: so you just have to fill in some blanks
J: with the correct information!
G: Boy1 giggles like a little girl if you just say “boobies”
J: ROFL!!!
G: it’s pretty fun
J: that is hilarious!
G: it is
J: i’m glad you told me… i’ll have to blurt it out like i have tourettes next time i see him
G: we’ll show you some time. LOL

J: whatcha doin??
G: debating about going for a walk
G: I cleaned for like an hour straight & was dripping with sweat then so I counted that as a workout
G: but my dog is wild, she needs it
J: lol!
G: “Dog want to go for a walk??”
G: I asked her and she said yes

G: this fleece blanket (old, snowmen, gift, not nice) has a hole in it
G: a perfectly straight hole
G: and Boy2 put it on G’s Mom’s Dog and says it is a snuggie
G: but he also has NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO idea how this slit got there
J: of course not…
G: ok, I am going to walk. I won’t be that long. My stomach hurts too
J: ok
J: you back?
G: I am now!
G: I went longer than I thought I would. It’s nice out.
G: Boy2 went to the Farmer’s Market (alone!) on Tuesday & bought a little pumpkin and wants to carve it!
G: he’s driving me NUTS about it
J: sounds like i know what you’re going to be doing soon…
G: not if I can help it. it’s too damn little to do anything to it!

G: did it storm there last night (or this morning really?)
J: yes. Bob said he got up at 3 and the sky looked like a strobe light
G: it was horrible here

G: oh so I told you about cleaning out the closet
G: well I took about a dozen of Vince’s shirts to “suggest” that he pitch them
G: and I thought THEN he’d go through his closet and throw MORE
G: well he picked FOUR
G: and one is one his mom bought and one is one my aunt bought him
G: that are both ugly
G: and then actually one is one I LOATHE and the other one is just really really old
J: *rolls eyes*
G: he has two button ups that are XXLs and he looks like he’s going to flap away in them
G: but they’re Ralph Lauren so there’s no way
G: and then he says “Well I can’t afford to buy new shirts.”
G: “Okay in the last year I have bought you 4 new shirts for Father’s Day, you bought one Izod at SAMS and then had your mom get two more of them (they’re striped polos)”
G: “that’s SEVEN SHIRTS! One for every day of the week. Where does it say you need to buy more shirts???”
G: not to mention probably another dozen in there
G: then he’s got a few that I really like but they’re so old they’re getting holes
J: Bob is the complete opposite.
J: if he has one shirt per day he’s happy.
G: well i’d like him to have more than seven so I can not be constantly washing
G: which BTW, when I was cleaning Boy1’s room
G: I opened one bag from when he had a sleepover a month ago and there were TWO GOOD pairs of shorts in it!
G: and we just bought him more shorts before school
G: because I think *I* am crazy

G: when she’s not living with me I like her
J: LOL
J: so i’m a loser because i think that stupid new miley cyrus songs is kinda catchy…
G: yes, at least you admit it
J: yep
G: I’m making the boys watch the Duggars as punishment
G: sometimes they show one of these kids and I swear I’ve never seen it before
J: seriously! me too

G: I think 2/3 of this dog’s problem is her flea collar
J: get her a new one while your mom is gone
J: so i downloaded one of those stupid ball games where you shoot the colored balls into chains and i’m friggen addicted!
G: LOL
G: So I brought home a big box from the work so Vince could clean out the stuff in his closet
G: like he’s got 2 pairs of pants that have shrunk & are too short
G: and there’s several shirts I hate
G: and several more that are too big that I will have to fight him on
G: and it’s 2/3 full and he hasn’t put a thing in it yet!
J: why won’t he get rid of that stuff that he can’t wear anymore????
G: In case he gets fat again
G: and it’s all Ralph Lauren & it was really expensive

G: for weeks
G: and I TOLD HIM 100x to fix it
G: and he swore he would and now my bill is 212.08
J: oh wow!
G: and then he just now says I could’ve called a plumber. Yes, but every day I said anything he said he’d fix it right now
J: i’d make him pay it!!!
G: he said he would actually but that’s not the point……..seeing as that’s literally money down the toilet
G: it pisses me off though–and it’s always like that–but the water department doesn’t like call you and say “hey you know your water bill is usually $30 and right now it is $212!”
G: I WOULD have called a plumber had he said he couldn’t/wouldn’t do it
G: he TOLD me to nag him about it and I DID
J: so get ready to roll your eyes at me…
G: *big grin*
J: i watched Twilight again and I heart Edward

G: you????
J: ugh. stupid work stuff.

G: My brother un-tagged himself in a Facebook pic I put up because it was unflattering.
J: lol
G: because he’s put on a few pounds & his shirt was too tight
G: from what I would guess…….he didn’t say why
J: i just saw the pic, btw…
G: Vince is watching “I Love You Man” with the earphones on
G: and cackling
J: i like that movie
G: it’s cute. He hadn’t watched it yet so I was making him
G: he was working on appraisals all afternoon/evening
G: so he needed something to detox with. LOL
G: Did [J’s friend from back home] tell you I am now medically consulting her family??
J: LOL! Yes!
J: i told her you were good
G: I know! I told her you were my one & only reference, but that should be good enough.
J: LOL
G: I actually have that same thing on my wrist……..but it’s never been bad enough to have it drained or messed with or anything.
G: or slammed a huge book on……that’s what the old school ladies will do to you
J: Boy2 would have fun helping you with that
G: definitely
G: it’s been a long time since it’s bothered me

J: so i’m watching The Real Police Women of Broward County and it’s even better than the worlds stupidest criminals
J: this woman drove to the police station to make a complaint and she is drunk of her a**
G: oh, I meant to switch back to that.
G: I got sucked into The Office
G: the commercials look good
J: and she’s crosseyed and can’t do the sobriety test watching the pen!
G: so yesterday we took the boys up to [state park] fishing & stuff & stayed the night
G: and unfortunately there’s no cell signal there at all
G: let alone wifi
G: but once it finally got dark we went to our cabin & they had Dish Network but just the very very basic stations
G: and we ended up watching Toddlers & Tiaras
G: I wanted to text you so bad and tell you I not only made Vince watch it but both the boys
J: lol!
J: i forgot it was on last night and missed it!
G: dang and see, that would’ve been your reminder!

G: Oh, and I didn’t tell you about the rest of my day……
G: we were supposed to fish all morning then come home, shower & go to open house at school @ 1:30
G: well by 8:30am Boy2 had a hook firmly embedded in his thumb
J: ouch!
G: the guy mowing by us said they’d take it out in the park office and the park office says no you have to go to the ER in [town]
G: well it’s like 15-20 minutes to [town] and maybe 20-30 minutes to get HOME
G: so he wanted to have it done at HOME……..[doctor] did it
G: he was so funny, he told Boy2 he got to keep anything he pulled out of someone
J: lol!
G: and then he put it in a specimen jar with some saline for Boy2 and Boy2 tried to give it to him
G: and then by the time we got to the school……everyone knew about it……..
G: well, like Vince went to the bank first, and everyone there knew!
G: but then [G’s Friend] says at school how accident prone he is.
G: Does he seem accident prone to you????
G: I mean 1 he’s 8…….and he’s never broken anything (knock on wood!)
J: well, he’s had a couple of things but i wouldn’t say he’s accident prone necessarily…
G: he’s just been to the ER one time…..for stitches
G: I mean by 8 my brother had stitches and a broken arm and all kinds of stuff
G: and I wouldn’t consider him accident prone either
J: unless stuff happens at school that they don’t tell you about!
G: LOL
G: well, I mean nothing bad
G: well [lady] overheard that part and asked me if he got that from me
G: and I was like………well………I mean all he’s had is stitches! And I’ve never had stitches
J: i was going to ask if you were accident prone!
G: (well minus that time I gave birth and they put a few in my hoo-ha!) but that wasn’t an accident!!!!!
J: LOL!!!
G: wel you know, I have broken my big toe twice……….
G: I think….they wouldn’t ever even bother with it since there’s nothing you can do
G: it felt broken!
G: I’ll ram myself into the kitchen table every few months…..I think it’s just kinda clumsy
