That's awesome.

My son started telling me I wasn't his friend when I wouldn't give him what he wanted around age 3-4. He thought it was the most devastating thing every and was quite angry when I said fine, I have a more important and permanent role - parent.

I love earnest little kid logic. It's so precisely calculated to get what they want and they are so certain of its infallibility.

He's been threatening to prank me on April's Fools Day for over a year (last year he tried convincing his dad to buy a cream pie to throw at me), so this is my mom revenge to keep him in line. So far just the notion that his mother (who's not exactly known for her sense of humor at home) MAY prank him has proven

I'm telling my son that we are going vegan on April's Fools Day. Cannot wait for the epic tantrum that is going to erupt when he realizes that bacon is not a plant based food.

We recently painted the walls in our kitchen, laid a new floor (the snap-click laminate type that looks like tile), and replace the crappy curtains with woven blinds from Home Depot. We probably spent around $300 to $400 (mostly on the floor). The difference the painting alone made was profound. Getting a better

The second is better, I think. I've seen it far too many times. Beee-O, bee-o, beee-o.

I've tried so many times but I keep getting bogged trying to remember who everyone is. It feels like I am back in Medieval history trying to keep the dukedoms and duchies and what not straight before the rise of Charlemagne. Or it could that I don't like the physical copy I have.

Hobby Lobby is such crap. They have shitty yarn and price stuff high to have fake sales. I've spent time in Kansas - good zoo, good BBQ, and crazy politicians.

I may or may not have exclaimed "shit snacks" today at work. In front of others.

Wow. That's a pretty crap day.

Correction - godless fuck palaces with yarn.

Midwest. They were pretty common in Iowa when I lived there.

My personal boycott has been active for about 14 years. They suck out loud.

The Challenger Disaster has been indirectly attributed to exhaustion on the part of the engineers who missed the issues with the o-rings. There's also research that shows there are more accidents on the Monday after we switch to day light savings time across the whole US.

Futter! Fake+butter or faux+butter, if you're pretentious. We love this stuff in my house - it melts great and spreads like magic. I never used it for baking or cooking - all butter baby!

They offer suits in boob sizes past "perky" - I will always love them for that. But this so unnecessary.

I actually feel worse about missing time with my kids now that they are older (so I understand the Goop there) - they are so much more fun now than when they were poopy screamy lumps. I didn't get to see my son this AM because I had to rush into the office for an early meeting...that was cancelled five minutes after

The eyelash thing is crazy. My son has had eyelashes like a baby giraffe since he was a baby. He could be an after model for some mascara selling lies.

Exactly. It's nine and I am waiting to get on a conference call with Hong Kong because of time zones and the nature of my job. My kids are in bed but I could not cuddle and lay with them because I have to review an infrastructure refresh plan for a data center. But, I am so sick of work that I am posting here
