For the Record

As of 10:35 PDT:

8 comments for the Plain White Ts.

12 comments for Hannah Montana (aka Miley Cyrus).

Kinda like a Google Fight without the, uh, fighting.

At this moment The Dog is barking furiously at me, wagging his tail, while he tosses his lion at me. This means he wants to go to bed. Because he sleeps with his lion...a stuffed toy he stole from The Child long ago.

I must go to bed because The Child and I have to get up early tomorrow to get to this frikkety frakking rummage sale in support of the 8th grade trip to DC and may I just say, the people who are driving this train are driving ME out of my frikkety frakkety mind? Good. Because they are. Trust. You don't even want me to get into how frakked up all this is. No? You do? 'K. I'll make it simple. I'll use army code:

This weekend looks to be a Charlie Foxtrot.

Myriad things have happened this week that make me say Whisky Tango Foxtrot.

I need to trip and fall into a bucket of money and I need to do it like, now.

Seriously.

Do you know, I haven't even had cocktails with The Neighbor since Monday? Yeah, that would be the shift in the space/time continuum that you felt earlier.

Lord, I will be so damn glad when this weekend is over. You don't even know.

I need change for a $20.

Don't forget to fall back tomorrow night. What will you do with that extra hour?

Oh, if only I knew the army lingo. But reading between the line, I'll guess that you might be hoping for a speedy weekend. :-)
It will be Monday before you know it.

Got that right, Kimberly Ann. I think what I resent most is looking forward to Monday on Friday night. Hello? Isn't there supposed to be a weekend in here?

Thank you, my Mouse. Please have 2.

Hat, I know. It's fun.

Sling, the extra hour, fortunately, falls during the part I love best...sleeping.

Neigb, the frikkety frakkety rummage sale is over at 2. I'll try and make it over before you have to leave for Schola.

Eighth grade trip to DC? Are you chaperoning? Please? I could sneak you out of your hotel room for evening out...

Hehehe shhhhhh

What extra hour? I am not persuaded that they gave me anything at all, but in fact, tricked me into losing more sleep. I'm thinking the daylight savings is the new opiate of the masses. I am only thinking this because it's the first thing that came out of my fingers which is to say I'm not thinking it at all. Just typing.

What a waste of good comment space. I'm sorry.

Outstanding, soldier. Now, I'd best get back to griping about that blasted Delta Sierra Tango.

Anne,oh my yord. After this weekend, not only am I not chaperoning but The Child isn't going. Dra. Ma. But we'll start planning our own trip back east sooner rather than later and I'll so take you up on your offer.

Booda, I'm sorry they cheated you. I so got that extra hour. I just slept and slept and slept and then I woke up and it was only some little hour in the a.m. so I slept some more. It was awesome.

Cowbell, sir, yes, sir.

Anne, as Blondie once famously sang, "One way or another"...free organizing for you, sumpthin sumpthin for me. Everyone wins.
