Eating the pasta necklace

Mommy: Emma! What are you chewing on?

Emma: Pasta, mommy.

things i ask siri (who is a british man, mind you)

"Siri: Should marijuana be legalized?"

thanks for this wonderfully unexpected answer, my dear, Siri! nice to know there's a dispensary quite close to my mum....

maybe it was a sign...

...of what a dumb-ass kris humphries is when, at a party he promised not to host at their apartment, he said "who wants to drink out of mason's baby cup?"

so, it's a sign of what a dumb-ass his soon-to-be ex-wife is, too, that she would marry such a neanderthal. he looks cromagnon, but he acts neanderthal.

that's all for now.

it's time to say goodbye

this saddens me to the core. these jeans have a good history with me, and i with them. yet i think it's time to say goodbye. the hole in the knee is totally across and huge. holes in the knee will forever be a problem--i teach preschool and i'm on my hands and knees and rolling around and sitting with my legs crossed *indian style, etc... plus, now with the baby. i'm really not supposed to wear them to work, but they fit so nicely into my boots, which i wear all winter. is there some way to fix them? i don't care of it looks quirky, but there's gotta be some way to save them. a patch would be too little at this point. i guess i could wear them over tights, but i'm already pushing maximum density in these jeans--i can't possibly fit tights under there. or could i...? i don't even have tights. i need tights. i need to get tights from heather @ the LittleMissMatched store at union station.


* we say "crisscross applesauce" in preschools these days, but i grew up calling it "indian style." i understand the need for change; however, "crisscross applesauce" bugs the shit out of me. now you know something (else) about me you never needed to know...

watching a show about commercials is super difficult...i find it really hard to focus because i feel like the show i'm watching is always on a commercial break, and that's when i start blogging...

i'm missing "the funniest commercials of the year" as we (i) speak (type).

check this out for starters:

should i even post this??

The guy who won Jeopardy! tonight had been trying to get on the show for 16 years--since he was a teen. He kicked ass. Now that's inspiring.

Oh my gods...I am such a nerd!

just give me one more inch

i mean, really! this doesn't look right, especially on you. one more inch would have made all the difference (that's what she said).
