Freak Parade

I haven’t had the time to put two sentences together for a real post…so I’m going to fill space with these snippets of conversation starring my children. (I know, curse you, you useless mommy blogger. Filling the internet with drivel about your kids! Arrrrgh!) At the very least, recalling them may keep me from duct taping them to each other and taking a nap…or selling them for parts. Both of which have seemed like excellent ideas many times this week.

The Girl: (as I am putting on my makeup) Where are you going?

Me: I’m going on a date.

The Girl: Yuuuuuck! You have to kiss you know.

Me: Well, I’m going to start with dinner.

The Girl: Nope. You have to kiss first.

Me: No way, baby. Mommy’s not that kind of girl.

I was exploring the internet for music, and sharing songs that I used to listen to when I was in junior high and high school with my kids. They were really enjoying some of the songs, so I offered to make them CD’s with the songs. As the kids started choosing the songs they liked….

The Boy: Yeah, make a CD for us with that song. You can call it “Songs from Centuries Ago”

Ingrate.

More from The Girl:

Papaw is all crinkly all over. Mamaw is not crinkly because she is not old.

And from The Boy after The Girl whined “I want a blog tooooo. You all have a blog. Mommy, when can we do myyyyy blooooooggggg?:

The Boy: Having a blog is hard. You have hundreds of thousands of millions of people look at your stuff and tell you how great it is. The hard part is you have to write them all back.

Um, yeah. Okay then. In all fairness, he has been doing some interviews with some awesome bloggers (and non-bloggers), and a few of them have resulted in some serious waves of traffic to his blog. Like being one of the wordpress top blogs for a day or so amounts of traffic. He has some great new interviews coming up, including another super cool blogger. He is offering up a new hint for every comment left on his blog. What can I say, the kid knows how to milk it. So go leave a comment and have a guess. Sometime soon, I am going to get off my keister and write about The Boy’s fun new project. Soon. For sure. And since I am too tired to even come up with a closing to this disjointed post…. This is the closing sentence.
