thursday things

i had a total hissy fit a couple of days ago for absolutely no reason. i wanted to change my blog address thing to inkyblog as i cannot remember it's weird numbers and letters name to save my life. and sure enough it was GONE. snapped up by some evil doer hoping to extort money from me. so i looked up the person capable of such a heinous act. ohhhh... that would be me... years ago.... now i still can't figure out how to switch it to inkyblog. loser...

while tossing and turning last night, i thought of a cool solution for joe the plumber. if he didn't charge $500 to unblock a backed-up toilet or $3500 to replace a pipe, he probably wouldn't be in that undesirable higher tax bracket annnnnnnd the people in the tax bracket beneath him wouldn't be as strapped for cash either :) ohhhhhhh i wish i had texted Barack with that snippet during the damned debate (i think too slow and have my best thoughts in bed at 12:33am) then i couldn't get back to sleep wondering if he has a blackberry or an iphone.

i wish tgi fridays had a kids eat free night. maybe they do and i just don't know about it. i just looked online and in australia kids eat free monday to wednesday. it's a long way to go for a free kids meal though....

sam had his teacher conference today. i always stress that they will tell me he is add or adhd or has tourrettes or something. but noooo... she gushes about what a wonderful student he is, how well he listens, how fast he can read, how great he is at math... and i sit there wondering why he saves all the bad behavior for me... sighhhhhh.

off to paint the hall... life is good (she lied)

  1. it's good to know that we're not the only ones who notice a disconnect between what our kids' teachers say and how they behave at home =]
