Thursday Ten

This is something new I’m implementing to give myself a day to post but to give myself a break from having to come up with cohesive thoughts to form a themed post. Just random dealy-bobs about me. How thrilled are YOU!?

1. Sometimes instead of making real dinners for my family, we have YoYo night. This stands for Your’re On Your Own. Nearly anything in the house is fair game – want a bowl of Cheerios? Have at it. Grilled cheese? Suuuuuuuure. Leftovers? Go for it. As long as I’m not making a complete meal, it’s YoYo. Love it.

2. I painted my nails today. In the bottle it was this awesome purple-pink color. On my nails? It’s this disgusting cotton candy pink. I hate it. I also hate that I’m too lazy to change it right now and have too much stuff to do that even if I DO change it, it’ll smudge and look like hooey. Maybe tomorrow.

3. Today, Pumpkin got really mad at me for taking the dining chair out of the kitchen (she was climbing on it), so she bit my butt. I was stunned. And part of me was just plain amused – I mean, quite honestly, I’m pretty sure no one has ever bit my ass before.

4. Saturday I’m going to a bridal shower and bachelorette party for one of Hubby’s cousins. She’s really awesome, and I’m looking forward to it. Her dad and Hubby’s dad are brothers. Her family is way nicer to me that my mother-in-law and father-in-law. It’s really funny, most of Hubby’s family is fine, and I am looking forward to being around the nice ones.

5. I’m already re-hooked on American Idol again. I really love the beginning shows when the really sucky singers are shown. I’m so mean.

6. Speaking of AI, I just downloaded “Tattoo” by Jordin Sparks. She always just annoyed me on the show, and I didn’t want her to win, but darnit, this song is catchy.

7. The coolest thing ever if you have a cell phone with a data package is Mobile Blogging. I’m hooked. I can post pics of my kids from anywhere. My family is loving it – all day they can see the messes the girls are making.

8. Tonight I made chicken tortilla soup and inadvertantly tripled the amount of chili powder. Whoops. Actually, I still loved it – but neither of the kids would touch it.

9. Today, Hubby’s closet was driving me so nuts that I reorganized it. I told him on the phone that I did it, and he was pretty peeved. Now that he’s seen it, I don’t think he minds.

10. I’m sick of tax season already. I hate it. I hate waking up early.
