did you know.....

this week is first child appreciation week on facebook: post a photo of your oldest child as your profile picture. let's show how much we appreciate the first born kids in our families for all they go through and all they do!

what the...? how bored was the inventor of first child appreciation week??! this can't be a real hallmark holiday, right....? since when do you celebrate one child for 'all they go through'?? clearly the inventor of 'FCAW' is a first child themselves with a big ole chip or their shoulder, desperately seeking validation and a pat on the shoulder for all they went through and all they did :) what's next, last child appreciation week? how about the middle children?? and the penultimate children...? sigh, it's just plain odd!

also odd: having a bird stuck in your garage and not even thinking to open the big huge 16 feet wide garage door to let it fly out, but instead trying to figure out how to slide open the tiny window with a feather duster and bust out the screen, all the while begging the bird not to flap in your face :) note to self: don't offer to think up the next facebook week theme :)

also odd: having voicemails that i have no idea how to check and having to just delete them to make the annoying red dot go away;)

what's on my to-do today list:

• go to superwalmart for spray paint. if we lived in MA or CO it wouldn't be locked up like it is here :(
• figure out which one of these eye-fi cards i need :|
  
• try to talk myself out of the 85mm AGAIN. i had it, never used it and got rid of it. so why exactly do i want it again...?
• try to talk Danny into giving up his loft bed because it casts a dark unphotogenic shadow across the room :)
• buy cream of tartar
• find datenight place on yelp - i want to go somewhere new and not crappy
  
• get $50 from bank for Sam who just realized we 'stole' his christmas money:)
• research this brick oven pizza baking thing...
• brush teeth :)

ps i really want a piglet :(
