Mature people truths

Justine told me she thinks she knows lots of diseases from watching Dr. Quinn.

"I knew what Cholera was!" She told me all happy with herself referring to a discussion they had in science class.

Lol. She Loves Dr. Quinn. Just like me.



My friend Kelly had this on her blog. (She has a cool blog, check it out, she is basically too cool for me, but oh well.)I thought it was funny. Number 12 is stinking funny! I edited one bad word in case anyone cares. And I don't like the beer one. I'm prude that way. Oh.... and the mother in me disapproves of number 10 even though it is a bit true. And 21 cracks me up because there are so many movies my mom let me watch (can we all say dirty dancing? I know this applies to you too!) and now that I'm a mom I wonder what my mom was thinking! And just because we talked about dirty dancing it reminded me to say how much I always loved Patrick Swayze and that I miss seeing his face around. And at the bottom of this post I put a really just beautiful picture of him and his wife. Case you care. Sorry, is it too risque?



Also Kate keeps breaking my heart when ever she gets in trouble. She tells me "mom! You can't be mad at little people" and she gets all broken hearted. Tonight I yelled (yes, it's true :( ) for her to go to bed. "But mom! You're our mom!" Or she'll say "I like you" or even "I love you" She has got all these really great guilt laden one liners down.

3. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.

4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.

11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren't going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.

12. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don't want to have to restart my collection...again.

13. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page technical report that I swear I did not make any changes to.

14. "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this - ever.

15. I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Damn it!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voice mail. What did you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away?

27. Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.

28. Is it just me or do high school kids get dumber & dumber every year?

29. There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.

30. As a driver I hate pedestrians, and as a pedestrian I hate drivers, but no matter what the mode of transportation, I always hate bicyclists.

31. Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.

32. Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, finding their cell phone, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey - but I'd bet my ass everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time!
