I’m so not interesting
At least I haven’t gotten annoying yet.
that’s what I thought last night at dinner when I was talking to Baboo about how enamored I’ve been with him for the last few days.
I hope it never gets annoying.
I don’t know why I’m so smitten and googly and weird.
Blah.
yesterday sorta sucked after I got home because my brother showed me a message from my sister where she said that while she seems like she’s really happy, she’s dying inside (she’s only 15 years old) and that our mother was back to drinking hard liquor and she took a picture of a bottle of 40 proof whiskey that my mother had been drinking with some weird old man that’s been coming around a lot.
It just sucks.
I told my brother to let her know that if things got bad and they wanted help, I’d be there.
I doubt they’ll ever ask.
*sigh*
I really think my mom needs to be completely alone and have it all taken away before she gets better. That’s what happened the last time, and it lasted for 10 years.
*sigh*
Whatever.
I don’t know what to do.
I’m starving.
Anyway, after that I fed my kids and Baboo and I went out to do errands. We wen to Bevmo and found this fancy bottle of champagne we’ll drink on the weekend.
Then we wen tto petsmart and wasted money on a no scratching spray to hopefully get the kittens to stop destroying the christmas tree (they have broken several ornaments and they are being general tyrants)… we wanted to find a raincoat for Puppy, but they only had pink ones. WHATEVER!!!!
After that we went to Target and browsed around fo ra few things. I think I’ve found the one toy I’mgonna get jonathon. He likes to play a lo tof make believe, so I’m gonna get him a GI Joe ninja costume and a ninja sword. He wants play swords or a nerf guns… and I think the sword is more maintainable than the stupid nerf darts which I’m sure will get eaten by the dog and then he’ll cry.
I’m still not sure what I’m getting Jacob.
I also want to get Jonathoon the Harry Potter books. Or some Star Wars books. Whatever.
blah blah blah.
Interesting observation about stores we’ve been going to lately… packaging and pricing information is in spanish first, english second. Nice right? I mean, normally you see the english writing is more prominent… cuz I dunno, I live in a country that has ENGLISH as the primary language.
But now it’s spanish. I have to search for the english now and it’s weird and I’m not sure how I feel about it. Even Baboo made a comment and he speaks Spanish! He was like "what is up with that!"
blah.
crazy world.
My gray hairs are super long right now. I hate them. I almost plucked them this morning but I decided against it. There are three right in front and they stand out horribly. Guess I need to dye my hair soon.
bleh.
i’m so damn boring right now.
read about my kids christmas presents! wheeee.
So then we played hooky and went to get some margarita monday and then we went home in a good mood and cuddled and cuddled and laughed until we cryed. I’m not sure why.
For some reason my hand smelled like a taco and I got an image of something called Taco Hand… it’s a monster with a taco hand.
Hmmm.
Paint pic to come.
I guess I’m gonna flee until I can be interesting!!!
I need some of that spray!

I pluck the greys near what would be “side burn” area, like by my ears, but no where else. I’d rather be grey then bald. Sometimes I use mascara on those straggler greys when it is too much for me to take. 🙂

I’m sorry about your mom. I really dont understand why people choose that life. I wish I understood it b/c then I could at least try to emphathize, but I really have a hard time with it. I feel a lot of anger & resentment. You seem to have come out of it very strong & it seems like you have overcome a lot. Your brothers, sisters, kids and Baboo are very lucky to have you in their life!

I thought I was the only one who thought it odd that Spanish was noted before English. Nothing against spanish, I actually want to learn it. But I would still prefer to feel like I live in America where we speak english.

I love tacos. lol. I hope your sisters do ask for help. It’s not an environment they need to be in. Your mother needs to get it together. Easier said than done tho. I hope it happens tho.

It was ruled (dont feel like looking up the date or order number) that English was NOT the primary language of America. Fucked up, right? Yeah, ‘they’ dont want to offend anyone by making one language take a higher priority over another. I like reading about what people are getting their kids for Christmas. Seriously.

i’d feel horrible for your little sister, too. poor thing. hope things get better over there before it’s too late. sounds like great ideas for johnathon so far. since he likes pretend and all that i bet once you got him to start reading the harry potter books he’ll really like them. i loooove just goofing around and laughing hyserically with josh for no particular reason. 🙂

Actually-english is not a primary language. Our country doesn’t actually have a designated primary language since we’re “a melting pot” or a “salad bowl” depending on which sociologist or anthropologist you want to ask. This is why instructions come in every single language under the sun. Wow-I just remembered something from college.

Hehe the ferocious Taco Hand, my nemesis… Best to keep him away from me, I don’t want to have to break out my spork again. 🙂 Lol-hey, did you know that right now 15% of the population speaks Spanish, and that by 2050 its estimated that over 35% of the population in the US will be spanish-speaking? I did a project over it! Crazy, eh? 🙂 Kinda cool for someone who speaks spanish like me tho =)

taco hand would be awesome about one day a month. All the time and you wouldn’t appreciate it anymore.

I’m not sure that anything seems to work with any kinda sprays where keeping animals away from Christmas trees is concerned! (We’ve tried a lot of things, and they don’t seem to have worked yet.) Thus, the reason why we’re having no Christmas tree this year. Just a few decorations and that’s it. I wish you luck with it though! And yeah, the situation with your sister, really sucks!

Have you ever thought of and considered an intervention? (I mean…you’re going along the right path as it is, and it doesn’t seem to like an intervention would be that much of a step further off!) I mean…she needs to have things taken away from her, (so she’d wake up and realize, and hit rock bottom that way), so why not go the rest of the way with it!
Warning Comment
(And, the good thing about interventions, is that, it doesn’t leave the sick one much choice, BUT to get the help they need! (It’s either that, or lose the rest of your life!) ) It’s something to think about, and give a shot anyway. And yeah, even this far into the relationship with Phillip, I’m still carrying on with the acts of loving him and being all the googly eyed stuff and

acting and feeling all giddy like I’ve got hearts in my eyes every time I look at him! So yeah, you’re not the only one experiencing that! And, I also sometimes think about my entries being somewhat boring too, but try not to worry about it too much and just try to spice it up whenever I can.

RYN Yes lets make little voodoo dolls of the people who drive us crazy. All hail the taco hand. I want to see a paint pic of it. You are the paint pic master. Better to laugh until you cry than cry until you laugh.
