You · want · me · to · what?

Or maybe it's the sarcasm.

Or the shoes.

Or the fact that I keep most of the kvetching in my head.

Oy vey, y'all. 

Experience the journey.

Sometimes I think I'm making lame excuses when I say I'm busy.  Then I stop and look at my calendar:

April 25 

9-3, supervise field trip to Lansing
6-8:30  Mom & Son beach party night @ the elementary school gym
6-?  WC party.

And why is it we always discover these things on the day when the kid's backpack contains a note reading:

Thanks so much for volunteering for the Skate-A-Thon!  Please check what you'd like to volunteer to do!  Thanks!  We're looking forward to it!

I don't remember agreeing to do this.  I'm not convinced it's a real event.  I think it's a plot.  I almost checked the "Facepainting" box, just to show THEM.  Instead, just in case it's a real event, I agreed to help make the hot dogs.

Especially in juxtaposition.

There are at least 134 different variations of "Jingle Bells."

It is possible to start a fire with 1 tree bulb and a badly wrapped quilt.

If you leave an unflated Santa plane in the yard and it rains then freezes, the wings will stick together.

Royal icing does eventually work its way out of cat fur.  Gum drops take a little longer.

Dogs do not like wearing reindeer antlers with flashing lights.

If you don't return your mother's call the day she leaves a message saying "I shipped your package today call me when you get it" you're asking for trouble.

When the mail-carrier says "I almost didn't deliver your coffee," it's a HINT.

I have hand-made truffles in my refrigerator.  You should stop by for some.  Seriously.

I really really really loathe and despise being assigned a partner for a presentation project.

Oh, who am I kidding?  I just hate people.

Well, except for the ones that I love.
