Top 5 D-BAGS on TV
That's Douche-Bags for you prudes, out there.
Last night I watched MTV's The Hills and decided I can't take much more of that Spencer. He is so gross. Heidi's not too far behind, but let's just say I just think she's stupid. Anyway, it got me thinking that I really don't like alot of folks on TV. So here's my list of D-BAGS....
1. Spencer Pratt (from The Hills)- he just creeps me out, he looks like a date rapist and his chin pubes really make me ill.
2. Charlie Gibson (ABC News)- Nice pinkie ring (see for yourself).
3. Michael Yo (E!'s Daily 10)-he's a tool.
4. Billy Bush (Access Hollywood)- Yawn.....He's dumb.
5. Katie Couric (CBS News)- Yeah, she's a chick, but who cares?
What about you guys, who do you think is a D-BAG?

Disney Star turned Fabulous (minus rehab).
MovieWeb - Movie Photos, Videos & More
I love love love Anne Hathaway. This movie is a great case of how to make in Hollywood, post Disney fame. So what, if her ex was a con-man, this girl can act. And the way this movie was shot, made me like I was actually at the rehearsal dinner, wedding, and reception. It was absolutely beautiful. Though the story was dark, it actually captivated the relationship of this family, in a realistic way. It was refreshing to see that Hollywood acknowledging "real life". The Grade for this flick, A- . The minus is for not marketing this movie more, shame on the studio.

Goodnight Mom.....
I found this in a Parenting magazine today, while I was actually waiting to be seen by Atlanta's GREATEST ENT, Dr. Mark Yanta. I have this obnoxious cough and my ears and sinuses are feeling funky, so I figured I should get it checked out, after 3 weeks of saying it would go away. Moms you know what I am talking about, we are always taking care of others, but never ourselves, blah,blah,blah.... Anyway, this is for anyone who might have read Goodnight Moon one too many times......
Goodnight Mom(with apologies to Margaret Wise Brown)
By Sarah Jio, Parenting
In the messy green
family room
There was a telemarketer ringing the telephone
And a crying toddler
because his brother just popped his
red balloon
And a picture of--
The cow jumping over the moon (which someone colored on with permanent marker)
And there was a missing
teddy bear, and a girl with
gum in her hair
And one to be scolded
And laundry to be folded
And a very hungry spouse
And something stinky in the house
(that no one else seemed to smell)
And a comb and a brush and a colicky baby who just won't shush
And a frazzled mommy screaming #*%#@
Goodnight messy room
Goodnight scribbled-on moon
Goodnight cow getting out while she can
Goodnight telemarketers and the
popped balloon
Goodnight long-gone teddy bear Goodnight cereal bar smeared all over the dining room chair
Goodnight spitup
And goodnight leaky sippy cup
Goodnight much-too-little house and goodnight grumpy spouse
Goodnight comb and goodnight brushAnd goodnight to a certain 4-year-old who just needs to hush right now I mean it
Goodnight Elmo
Goodnight toys we'll pick up tomorrow,
or the next day
Hello chardonnay and TiVo--
"me" time finally

Calling all Nerds! Calling all Nerds!
I am not knocking Nerds, by calling them Nerds. I love all of God's creatures, but I will give a very lucky Nerd a lap dance if one of them could invent a........ Laundry Robot! Please! Please! Please! I am telling you that my latest and greatest enemy is our laundry hamper. If I had the means to have new clothes delivered to my house everyday, I would throw dirty clothes in the trash daily, actually I'd even recycle it (it'd be dirty, but usable). So back to my plea, if you know of someone who is into inventions, tell him or her to make me my Laundry Robot......

One of the funniest parts in Waitress
No, I am not preggers! But, I had to share this clip from Waitress with everyone. It's called "Bad Baby Pie".....(Don't forget to press pause on my kick ass playlist, enjoy.)
If you haven't seen this movie, please rent it or look for it on HBO OnDemand.

Have something cute on,when I get home.
I think the warden has been drinking.
Once again, the warden was out of town this week and the little dictator,our son, was in rare form. Our little guy does well during the week, but on the weekend he is kinda like a binge drinker. You know how during the week most drunks are functioning alcoholics , then on the weekend they act like mean drunks who think its classy to get in fights. That's our Pride and Joy. I am so over it.
Anyway,back to the title of this blog. I just got off the phone with the warden, who is at his BFF's in DC, waiting to watch Tummy Sticks, that's what I call UFC, and we were talking about him coming home tomorrow and he asked me if I was going to have on something cute for his arrival. I said yeah, a two year old. Jackass!
I know he was kidding, but in my noggin I was thinking, WTF? Yes, I am excited that he is coming home, but for different reasons. Before our son, I used to love it when he came home just because I guess, I missed him. Now, my tune has changed a bit. I miss him, but with ulterior motives . I just want him to come home to do shit for me, like help out with bath time, bedtime, etc.. I am starting to feel sorry for him, how shitty is it of me to only want him to come home to do stuff for me? Why do kids make have to make life so different?
I know we make our own choices, but I am starting to feel like once you have kids your own personal choices are no longer personal. It's like,where do we go? And do we ever get to come back? You can't have something cute on when your husband gets home at lunchtime, where will you put your kid? In front of TV? Aren't we supposed to be watching their television intake? Or do we hire a babysitter for 15 minutes? (Girls, let's be honest we know that's all the time they need.) I wish I could figure out a way to blend my former life with my current life and enjoy it more. I am not unhappy with who I have become, but I wish that I could have studied for this part of my life. That way, I could have prepared for it. ( I know that sounds like a control freak.)I feel so over-whelmed sometimes that I actually feel bad for my husband and son, because I selfishly just miss my former self, the woman who never really gave a shit about anything else and probably would have something cute on for her warden.

KID FOR SALE!!
Oh wait, this isn't Craig's List.
I am about to lose it with my little dictator. He has been quite the demon this weekend. And please don't give me that excuse that he is TWO. I can't hear you! LA LA LA LA LA.....
I can't believe that God, himself, programs these little creatures to act like crazy people. Wait a sec, can I say crazy people, is that politically correct?
Not a very eventful weekend, just a lot of holding my breath, telling myself to not react, you know your run of the mill parenting. So back to my ad, Kid For Sale.
Oh never mind, I'll give him one million more chances and then he will be on the auction block, for sure, the little turd.

Congratulations, President-Elect Obama
What a great day in the Obama house. I hear his girls went to school like normal today. Funny,huh? I understand that some folks are kinda mixed about these election results, but if you are a parent, please remember that it is always better to take the high road and support our leaders. Some of us might not have voted for who won, but whomever won deserves our respect and prayers.
Now, enough about the election already, isn't it time we focused on more important matters like Denise Richards is coming back to TV. (My guilty pleasure is coming back to E!). God Bless America......
***Oh, this picture was taken by me @ a Town Hall meeting in GA, earlier this summer. To the left of the Secret Service Agent's BIG head is Obama.***

Top 5 "weird" things I LOVE.
They may be weird for you, but great for me!
1. Taco Bell- OMG! I adore Toxic Smell, as my sissy's boyfriend calls it.
2. Hawaiian Pizza- No one wants to share it with me, because nobody understands.
3. Gossip Girl- I feel like I am all alone with this fabulous TV program.
4. Mild Chicken Wings- Hot ones are GROSS! Who enjoys sweating while they eat?
5. Any NON-Sci-Fi movie. YAWN! They are so corny. Especially ones with Will Smith. I will watch anything else, but if aliens are involved (or Will Smith),Forget it! NERDS!!!!!
How about you? What are some weird things that you love?

How much Halloween candy did you eat?
I took my little Buzz Lightyear trick-or-treating Friday and the little superhero got a ton of candy. Being the careful parent I am, I went through it carefully to make sure that it was safe. Safe meaning, "Is it something mommy would like?". Here is how I check my child's candy (step by step):
Step One- Put child to sleep.
Step Two- Draw all of the curtains.
Step Three- Pour the candy all over counter.
Step Four- Divide treats in to two piles, shitty and yummy.
Step Five- Check on child(make sure he is really asleep).
Step Six- STUFF MY FACE.
I kinda got a tummy ache after my "binge",but damn it was good. I can't wait until the warden comes home,so he can take all of this candy to work. I'll be like 500 lbs. when he comes home.
