Do These Ones Fit? Do These?

August 28th, 2005

We went school shopping today. Honest to God, parents should get combat pay for spending an hour at Gap Kids trying fifty pairs of jeans on their wiggly little almost-five-year-old. Out of these fifty, two fit. Sort of.

Yes, there were 2 (two) dressing rooms for 800 (eight hundred) children.

Jeans were on sale. Yes, her three-year-old brother had to go along. Fine with him, as he enjoys licking the filthy carpets in dressing rooms and spends most of his time in there rolling about like a little puppy in a meadow.

Signed,

I like to play video games. I like to jump in the swimming pool. I like to play with games.

quote of the day

“Courage is the price that life extracts for granting peace. The soul that knows it not, knows no release from little things.”

— Amelia Earhart, aviator (1897-1937)

Dirty Thieves

August 17th, 2005

PEACE AND LOVE to the Wacky Mommy of my late friend David Johnson. He was an Oregon boy, who I knew from about 20 years ago. A bunch of us used to all run around together, when we were mere children. We lost touch. He was killed in Iraq. God rest. His mom is going to join Cindy Sheehan, deep in the heart of Texas. You rock, mamas.

And, in more trivial news: Did they steal the other pumpkin yet? No. But they did try to steal the neighbor’s car. And a few years ago, they stole my neighbor’s bathtub. Which was in her driveway at the time. (They were remodeling.)
