The Heart of rock 'n roll is still beatin!

So, I wasn't going to blog about my drunken stuppor over the weekend but after 48 straight hours of a hangover and a day in bed reading aDay in the Wife, from the beginning, I decided, screw it. Whatever.

My friend Stacey from "Upnorth" came for her monthly visit b/c it was SO HER TURN and when her son cried all night long the last sleepover we had here...we were due for a do-over. AND DO-OVER WE DID!

It started with a photoshoot then some shopping. I should have known what kind of shape I would be in in the morning when I thought buying a pink mini skirt and a retro Madonna shirt was a good idea...

After going home to change into above mentioned outfit, just the two of us went to dinner. Let me just say that I had only about 4 bites of dinner followed by the waitress kindly informing me that the two Long Islands she had already served me were the limit. TIME TO GO.

So we had already decided earlier that after dinner we would go get Boobs and head to our local dive for some much needed encores in kareoke. I have to say I was sad that Fred wasn't there to DJ. Apparently he had moved up in the world and was "doin' a weddin'" the fill-in said. Fred wouldn't be talking about my boobs (not my husband, but my actual rack) and Skinny wasn't there to bust out the Eminem to the over 60's crowd that frequents the joint so we had to set the tone.

Stacey only had 2 of the 15 beers from the $10 buckets and Boobs and I had the rest. It helps my singing voice. What can I say?! She sang some You're So Vain and classy tunes like Free Fallin' while I chose crap like Summer Lovin', Gonna Soak Up the Sun and some Huey Lewis & the News. Seemed good at the time. When I was willing to sing ANYTHING and had to ask, microphone in hand, what was up and it was Sin Wagon and I was ok with it, I shoulda known. But no, I had to wait until I was seeing my friend Stacey and wondering and thinking i didn't know she had a sister. George, the long-haired hippie biker dude, was there rallying the troops and singing us Seger songs b/c we were "such big fans." He even hugged me. (sigh)

Then after runnning out of the cigarettes I was chain smoking, I suggested going to the clu-zub that my too cool for drool brother works at... because any other night at 1 am when I suggest it, Boobs never thinks its a good idea. But tonight he agreed, wholeheartedly.

I spot my bro near the back and quickly bee-line for his behind. That's right...I grinded on my brother and he liked it...a little surprised when he turned around, but liked it nontheless. He was annoyed and I was the only one on the dance floor so we quickly got bored and left.

When we got home and the neighborhood was dark and Boobs wouldn't let me go knock on doors and run, we turned in for the night...sort of. We woke up the 14 y.o. and then ruined my new top. Damn. Lets just say that the whole next day was filled with greasy food, headaches, laughter beyond all control over the previous nights details, and the next day: much of the same. I didn't know hangovers could last that long. And hair of the dog is bullshit...it doesn't really work. And today I took a pregnancy test when I didn't even make it to the bed that night. Good times.

It Comes From Within

So I went to the dentist AGAIN today and read a magazine in the waiting room. There was an article about a couple who had grown apart over the years and didn't know how it happened. The woman was repeatedly telling her husband that she felt unimportant . She explained how she never did anything for herself and hadn't done some things that she enjoyed doing since before her and her husband were married. She asked her kids what mommy did the most and they said, "the laundry." (not exactly a legacy!) Then the woman went on to explain how she blamed her husband for her unhappiness. The expert gave a detailed response, but the one thing she said that really stood out to me was how the woman was unhappy because the woman was unhappy ... it really didn't have anything to do with him. She no longer did the things she had liked to do. What did she expect?! When her and her husband were dating she was spontaneous and exciting and the two of them explored things together. No...

This Can't Be Happening!

Will is already old enough to play tee ball!! OH MY WORD!! I remember "walkin' the mile" while in labor, secretly wishing that it was over and done with and my child was already walking and talking and no late nights and loss of sleep would be suffered. I regret that now b/c it happened. He's walking: check. He's talking: check. He's gonna be 5 in less than 2 months: check. Just signed him up for tee ball: double check. This just can't be happening. The time went too fast. I'm not ready to give him up for school either. That's like 6 whole hours in the day that he will be somewhere else, like not with me, like: uncheck! I don't likey. I supposed I could homeschool him??....but let's not fool anyone here...I love my son but I don't want to be the sole person responsible for his smarts and knowledge and stuff like that. I only have an associates degree in general studies...C'MON PEOPLE! I am also realizing that with Will being gone 6 ...

Thankful to NOT be in the Army! (part 1)

I haven't blogged in 4EVER b/c someone has been sick in this house for the last 10 days and right now, it's me. Joy. Anywho, Emily wants me to write 100 things about her but I can't think that hard this morning...although I will do 1. She farts ALL THE TIME! and 2. She really is SUPER DUPER funny! I'll do the rest later. So it's the most wonderful time of the year and I've already done 80% of my shopping throughout the year so, I'm totally ahead of the game and liking it. People are scrambling around trying to find what they're looking for or trying to decide WHAT they're looking for while I am smuggly enjoying browzin! I am always left with the kids stocking stuffers. I try to keep those gifts as random as possible (more fun that way; for me, not necessarily for them). And this time of year always reminds me of my experience in the Army... I remember the BEST christmas-time I ever had...I was in the Army and was desperately trying to get out. I knew...
