Random Thoughts About the Last Few Days
- I honestly wasn't feeling the Michael Jackson thing. I mean, Off the Wall and Thriller provided the soundtrack to some of the most exciting and memorable times of my life, but he morphed into an androgynous yet crotch-grabbing, scary freak. I was way more upset when Luther died.
- I know that Paris Jackson crying at MJ's memorial service was sad, but I thought it was insane how Janet shoved her in front of the microphone and hissed, "SPEAK UP!" into her back. God help those kids if there's a custody war and mommy dearest gets them.
- I'm getting the sinking feeling, and realization, that I didn't sign up to live with a surly little kid/pre-adolescent. Not to mention a teenager. I signed up for a B A B Y. Nothing more.
- Thinking about our upcoming cruise (Montreal - Boston, in honor of Mom & Dad's 50th anniversary) is a little nerve-wracking. Although I'm comforted by the fact that I scored two connecting rooms (ok, ok, they are each the size of my ass. Which is SMALL by the way.)
- I've decided to start an annual tradition of pulling Josh (and ultimately Max) out of school during the year to take trips to places that we can't afford during the Christmas break and having a series of social workers call me with an accusatory tone, as if I'm burning my kids with cigarettes while they're shackled to the wall in the basement.
- The show "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant" is the best thing ever.
- It was kinda funny that, when Gregg got on Facebook this week and said he was married to me, people noticed and thought something was up.
- I love how life-long "quitters never win and winners never quit" mantra-spewing Republicans have done a complete about-face and are suddenly completely supportive of Sarah Palin quitting two years into her four year term.
- I could learn a few things regarding assessment and selection from the casting crew from Real World. This season, Cancun, is an especially perfect example of hiring.
- Gregg's birthday is next week. Any ideas for gifts I can get him?
