one more reason Nancy Botwin bugs me :

she can crawl through a tunnel... from the basement of Maternity World in San Ysidro... and WALK - TO MEXICO (which is a loooooong way), get drugged into a stupor by the Mayor of Tijuana, pass out for days and STILL manage to somehow find her way back home, without having her children repossessed by CPS... but i can't keep track of my car keys without losing them at least 50 times in a 24 hour period.

did you know Nancy Botwin (in real life) was originally considered for the role of Susan Meyer in Desperate Housewives? only one woman bugs me more than Nancy Botwin - and that's Susan Meyer :| whenever there's an explosion - or a plane crash - or a serial killer on the loose on Wisteria Lane, i cross my fingers and toes so hard that it will kill off Susan Meyer. but she is like a cockroach - nothing kills her off :(

did you also know Nancy Botwin's (in real life) husband left her when she was 7 months' pregnant for Claire Danes... who now has minus 100 points on my scoreboard. i feel a little less hostile towards Nancy Botwin (in real life) since reading that....

did you also know the top of Matthew Perry's right middle finger was amputated by a door? i never noticed that on 'friends'....

did you also know Marilyn Monroe had six toes?? i am not sure i really believe this - it seems like a far-fetched tall tale to me.... ok, enough showbiz trivia...

today's news:

finally found something to use my free $10 Kohls card on before it expired - i got some much-needed pillow mist and a mysterious product called 'liquid pajamas'. i tried it on my hands they felt like satin pajamas instantly :)

went to two Michaels looking for the "EZ display kid art frames" that are on the website so why are they not in any of the stores??? honestly i am not stupid - i asked one woman named 'Sadie' (who was not sexy at all) and she swore blind that some lame plastic frame she was holding (with no mat in it like the one in the picture on the website) was the one i was looking for, by clicking her big plastic french manicured nails on it repeatedly - even though it clearly wasn't... so the Michaels roadshow continues in the morning....

made 24 chocolate rice crispie/coconut/cornflake cakes and ate 2 (so far :)

received sun dresses from Lands End... now i will get to see if growing an entire inch in height means i no longer have to order 'petite' and am now considered 'regular' by American standards... will report back after tearing apart the hundreds of plastic bags to get to the goodies ;)

am a little too scratchy and snotty to sing with the Beatles tonight... so i am off to just watch Aaron play guitar on medium.....
