Sleep is over rated anyway

I'm sick, baby is sick, hubby is out of town...and here I am, wide awake because the cold meds haven't made me pass out yet...but have made me just dopey enough to make doing anything more complicated then blogging, impossible.

So, while I'm waiting to crash, I bring you this conversation:

T1: Oh crap!
M: Hey, you don't say that.
T1: But Jimmy* says crap all the time. He said it 3 times today.
M: Well, I don't want to hear you saying it.
T1: What about "Oh crudnuts"
M: Can't you just say Oh Crud?
T1: but that's boring
M: *sigh*
T1: How about ass? Is ass a bad word? Can I say ass?
M: NO! You can not say that, I don't want to hear you say that again.
T1: But Jimmy says it, and his mommy doesn't like it either.
M: Well then he shouldn't say it.
T1: But she's not around when he says it
M: *sigh* Santa is watching.
T1: Yea, you're right. I probably shouldn't say ass.

*changed to protect the "innocent"

Or how about this gem from last night:

T1: T2 gets to have all the fun!
M: He's sick, that's not much fun
T1: Yea, but he doesn't have to go to school
M: You're right, he gets to stay home and take naps
T1: I want to stay home
M: Are you sick?
T1: No, but what if I faked sick so I could stay home?
M: You're too young for that, eat your dinner.

Seriously?! Fake sick?! Don't I have a few more years before he's holding the thermometer up to the light and complaining of stomach pain the miraculously disappears just as it's too late to go to school?! *sigh*

Happy Wednesday!!









Oh...and I've lost 2 followers in the past week...hmmm...maybe they didn't appreciate me wishing my boys to be gay? ;)

One of those days

I couldn't sleep last night, partly due to the fact that I had coffee at 1pm and partly due to the fact that I couldn't turn my brain off. Caffeine keeps me wired for hours, which is why I normally don't have any after about noon, unless I plan on staying up until all hours. Yesterday, I really just wanted my white mocha and I didn't care what time it was. I won't be making that mistake again any time soon.

This morning I managed to drag myself out of bed and get the kids ready and out the door on time...well, almost out the door. My keys were missing, again. 10 minutes before T1 needed to be AT school, which is exactly 10 minutes from my house, I told HH he needed to take him. I did not want this incident again. Nope, no thank you.

Literally, 3 minutes after they left, I found the keys. Under the spelling folder on the table. The good news is, I got my white mocha this morning and managed to stay awake all afternoon. The bad news? While waiting for T1 to get out of school, talking to another mommy, I looked down to notice my nice bright white tag sticking out of the side of my black sweater. Oh yea, my clothes were on inside out. Klassy. Needless to say, I got dressed before I had that coffee...or did I?

Oh, and T1 is selling cookie dough for school. For weeks I've been saying money is due tomorrow. Nope, I was looking at the paper this afternoon and it was due today. I'm an ass. Luckily I can turn it in at our meeting tonight...but I'm still an ass.
