You’re a witchy woman! Chances are that you see
Morticia Addams as a role model, and your
wardrobe sports a fair amount of black. The
other mothers at school pick up may look
askance, but your kids already know that the
judgement of others isn’t what counts.
What kind of a freaky mother are you?

Today’s “Pup Moment”
[07:47] me: om my god. The pup.
[07:47] me: we were stuck at the band meeting for the Girl, right?
[07:47] me: and she strikes up a conversationw tih the daddy sitting next to her?
[07:47] me: and she’s being pretty quiet about it, so I don’t shush her.
[07:47] me: And he stands up and moves over to me – and says “Is that yours?”
[07:48] me: and I nod and chuckle and say “yeah, she’s very shy, as you can see.”
[07:48] me: and he nods and says. “That – and apparently she has a grandpa that farts a lot.”
[07:48] me: I.
[07:48] me: about.
[07:48] me: DIED!!!!!
[07:48] me: *L*
[07:48] her: omg. (LOL)
[07:48] me: I just laughed and nodded. “well, she’s honest.”
[07:48] her: hahah.
[07:52] him: *DIES*
And you can be sure the first thing I did when I got home was call her grandparents. *chuckles* Thought mom was gonna hurt herself laughing over that one, i did… and dad found it highly amusing as well. Life with the pup – ever amusing. *chuckles*
So the girl is joining the band. Playing the clarinet. oh. good! *L* I’m so glad we have the ManSpace – she can practice out there. *chuckles* It’ll at least put a bit of a buffer between me and the screeching thing. of course, we have to rent an instrument. We can do so from the school for 75 bucks, though they’re not the best quality. We can do so from a music store, and its 25 a month. or we can order one, and it’s 10 a month. oy. The last one, though, is rent to own. That might be the way to go if she really likes it… and I think she might. She’s quite musical and talented that way. We’ll see.
The boy – he’s got his good days and bad days. He and I had it out a bit last night about his grades. he’s got a B in 3 classes, and D- or F in three, and of course he doesn’t know WHY he’s got those F’s… I tell him to talk to his teachers and it’s excuse after excuse. After the asshole goes back to work I’ll have to go in with him and make sure it gets done. Trying to nip this all in the bud EARLY this year to avoid the stress of possibly failing a grade next year.
And he’s 12.5 years old. that means he’ll be 13. THIRTEEN! in march. OMFG.
I’m still getting used to the quiet while all the kids are off at school, but I’m certainly loving it! I’ve gotten a bit of sleep, I’ve gotten a hella lotta work done too. Including the cleaning up of a site I took over when the old webmaster took off for college in England. Yes! England! I’ve spent the past two weeks stripping all the flash out of it in order to make it easier to update – you know, since I don’t know flash. *chuckles* That and the amount of ‘animations’ they had just REALLY did not justify the use of all that flash! It could have been so easily done in html – and was done so, easily, by me. Looks fantastic now, if I do say so myself. Specially when one considers I had to do the redesign using screen shots, since I didn’t have any source images at all. It looks remarkably like it did before, but with 1000 nitpicky things changed to work better and look better overall.
And you need to go see, and subscribe for that Hunter/Fisherman in your life, so that you can help support me as it’s an “in trade” kind of deal. No cash up front, but cool things like stock and advertising. Heh. So – check it out, hm?
Portfolio is going well, I think. I’ve got a nice 34 page layout currently, that after the final tweaks to the wording should be ready to go. On time even! Whoot! Thanks to mom and dad I got a killer deal on my physical portfolio case and will be spending time at dads soon to get that all printed out and ready to go. Hopefully tomorrow.
Asshole’s home, and naturally driving me nuts. heh. Just want him to get the hell outa my hair. i swear, tell the boy that no, we don’t have any cash right now, and he gets pissy. and then not even 30 minutes later “i need this, we need that, I want this” etc. It’s like what part of NO do you not understand?!? good god.
gah. I’m so tired. I’d love to go back to bed and nap, but well, with asshole home I got to monitor the calls so he doesn’t get any from collectors I don’t want him to know about just yet. *smirk*
That and he refuses to LET me sleep. even if he OFFERS “go on back to bed…” then he’s banging around the bloody house making all sorts of freaking noise and shit. and bitching that theres “nothing” to eat [there is, he just won’t cook] and generally makes a nusance of himself. heh. I’ll sleep in tomorrow.
and hey, some funnies:
and this one cracks me up every time I see it. *snickersnort*
and OMFG. This one had me and a friend just CACKLING all day.
lalalallalalalalalallalala oohHOOHOO
(bipalipalip SQISH!)

And you know – I’ve never been really fond of Bill Maher, but I guess I just didn’t listen to him. He had me totally cracking up last night on Carson Daily. Everything from marijana to fat ass people publishing diet books. Common sense and it all made me chuckle. Remind me some time to go on my typical rant about “protecting kids” vs. “sufficating the little deviants”
And is it just me, or is Paul Bettany the cutest and funniest thing? Oh my god. the accent, the jokes, the fact that he named his kid Stellon after a friend because he’s “one hella drinker, and i felt that was something for my kid to aspire too…” *LOL*
Anyway – back to portfolio and other works. hee. and maybe I’ll even manage to take a shower. whee!
