First Thing in the Morning

So, Mom... we meet again.

My Mother's Movie Reviews

Sadly, my mother is no longer with us. Her movie reviews, however, are with us forever. ENJOY!

A FEW GOOD MEN:  "How can one man be THAT good looking?"

SCENT OF A WOMAN:   "I didn't like the whole idea of that movie....you know....(loud whisper) smelling women."

My Husband's Regional Musings

"People from the North East don't travel for weddings."

Um, thanks? I guess?

Mom! I really like your bumpy skin! It's one of the things I love about you the best!

So.....a Liberal Arts major?

Future careers under consideration:


Toy reviewer

Video game player

Bakugan collector

Scuba diver

One is the same

My resolutions:

1. Go to sleep earlier
2. Wake up earlier
3. Eat healthier

My kid's resolutions:

1. Stay up later
2. Wake up earlier
3. Eat more sweets

2010 Finally!

Let's be frank: 2009 was not a good year. Sure, a lot of cute things were said, but other than that, it pretty much sucked the big one. I am nestled in the sweet spot right between "need to eat Mexican food to abate low level depression" and "need to drive to a Mexican pharmacy for low cost horse tranquilizers."

Also, honestly, my kid doesn't say as many cute things as he used to. I think this is because he is a genius and so now that he is almost 4, most of the things he says are either totally rational, or so convoluted that they would require pages of explanation. (Such as knowledge of all of the tertiary characters in the Clone Wars. Ugh.)

My New Year's resolution (one of many) is to post more often and not limit myself to CTMKS. I mean I say cute things too! Well, I say things. Also I have seriously neglected posting many of my husband's regional musings. Explosive items to come!

If you must know, my OTHER New Year's resolutions are:

1. Lose 20 pounds.

2. Following loss of 20 pounds, immediately gain 50 pounds.

3. Have baby. Lose 50 pounds.

4. Move.

5. Buy items I do not immediately regret.

6. Be nicer to people.

Other stuff too.
