No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problem...

BUT, you better damn well have your hat...

THEN, there's this guy & his man bag. What the hell was HE thinking???

BONUS: Gluten Free Beer!

There's Something Woman Like About a Pick Up Man...

THIS is James' rental while the hooptie gets repaired. It is big. Really big. So big that it won't fit in the garage with my minivan, & thank Gawd it has handles to pull my fat azz into the cab. It is really nice though, & if it weren't a V-8, I'd have him consider something like it when his lease is up in June...

Define Irony...

So, James was listening to Paul Harvey the other day & heard this tidbit of news.

Now, anyone who knows me, knows I can be sarcastic (big shock), & James sometimes has difficulty picking up on if I'm being sarcastic or serious. Then, he wanted to tell me he may have dementia, but forgot. Isn't that a hoot? He FORGOT to tell me he may have dementia. I laughed out loud.

I'm no Dr. House, but I think it's an accurate diagnosis...

Question...

James was coming home last night from a buddy’s house. He’s been ill since Sunday. Can you see where this is going?
He had to pull over to the side of the road…

“Does a hillybilly shit in the street???”

Anniversary Flowers...

For those of you that were there & may not remember, it was 12 years this past Sunday.

Yes, I have a 13 year old & can do the math. Get over it...

James went duck hunting for the 1st time Saturday, & came home with these. They are not a frequent site at our house. Guilt can be a good thing...

Happy Birthday...Mr. President...

Be sure to sing the post title, or else it loses all meaning.

Anywho, Friday was James' 38th birthday. So, we both took the day off work, & got to go out to breakfast AND dinner...childless.

Breakfast was held at a local favorite, plus I had a coupon (HELLO Polock). I tried Claire's Harvest Benedict, & it was very good. The fire roasted garlic tomatoes were a nice addition to tranditional hollandaise sauce.

But, dinner, it was at my favorite place. On your birthday, your meal is free, so we only go here twice a year.

James tried to filet with lobster tail. Pretty much he orders this every time. He said is was good as usual.I tried the filet with the swordfish steak, blackened. I was impressed with how tender the filet was. I don't usually order steak out. The swordfish was done excellently as well. But, the rice pilaf, that was super boring.

Oh, plus, on your birthday, you get a free dessert. James took home the key lime pie & said it was AWESOME...

Bad Parenting?

It's 8pm & James has a sweet tooth. With the toddler in bed, the teenager in her room & the soon to be 8 year old in the basement playing computer games, we sneak out to McD's for a McFlurry & ice cream cone. For the record, I inquired if we should tell the girls we were leaving the house. His reply, NO; then they'll want something.

Well, the teenager calls James on his cell as we're paying @ the drive-thru window. He giggles @ me while talking to Natalie as I'm shushing the girl @ the window telling us our McFlurry will be right up.

Is that wrong?...

True Love...

On our recent trip to Holland, MI, we drove through Indiana on the turnpike. We've traveled this route before & my husband has NEVER stopped in South Bend. He is an avid U of M fan, & can't be bothered with such sentimental drivel. Well, the Gods must have been looking the other direction that day. Not only did I get to see the Notre Dame Campus (YEA Rudy!), but we even ate lunch @ the Legends of Notre Dame restaurant right on campus.

I had the Tilapia Po Boy sandwich. It was nothing to write home about, but I did get to see pictures of Joe Montana, Brady Quinn, & Jerome "the Bus" Bettis, so it was worth it.

And, just so you know, James left his U of M baseball cap on the entire time...

Rules of Etiquette...

A certain hillbilly that shall remain nameless needs your help. Last night he inquired to me if you wore a pair of underwear for only 3 hours, could you wear it again tomorrow?

Your thoughts...

Yes, THESE are the kind of conversations most poplular in our house.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA...

I don't know which is funnier. His uniform, or the fact that this is what he does on his lunch hour.
