my chicken lost his contact

yesterday chaco was sitting on my belly while i was laying down and he said, "momma...i love sitting on your belly; it jiggles like a waterbed."  dogs say the darndest things...

so, how do you teach a dog tact anyway?

ok, i guess it's back to pod runner now that my throat and shins are feeling normal again! i don't want to have waterbed belly!

how appropriate that tbs was showing the wizard of oz last night after all of the tornadoes the other day. so...if a tornado makes 3 touch downs in a city, does it get 18 points? no 'field' goal unless it touches down in the country? i really enjoy the wizard of oz much more after seeing wicked. although the lollipop kids still creep my out a little bit.

i'm not a huge bbq fan. i have to be in the mood (same with chinese food), and today i was in the mood partly because i was privy to a conversation about barbecue last night,but mostly because i had a gift card i won as part of a prize for winning our school's biggest loser competition. i know, right? give someone who's trying to lose weight a gift card to fat. anyhoo, when i unwrapped the sandwich, it smelled like something that had just been blow-torched with gas. did that stop me? no. it tasted a little like i imagine lighter fluid to taste, not that i would know...but the fries were good!

the baked beans were pretty good too!

  ah, schuyler fisk! sunshine just came on my random shuffle! love it! makes me happy! it was random, i didn't realize she was actually an actress as well until the other night i may or may not have been watching reruns of law and order svu...and saw her name in the beginning credits..so i had to look up pictures and make sure i knew which one she was. apparently she was a genius, who made poor choices. disturbing show.

today i stopped at the thrift shop on the way home, and i would like to share some of my finds. some things should just be gotten rid of and not re-sold...

why? did they really think some child would want to hug this thing and give it love?

hair remover...opened...ew.

 i did find some great books though, and they were super cheap! they will come in handy in the classroom.

i just heard something down beside the couch on top of the printer. when i peeked over, i saw my rubber chicken looking for something...the boys said that he dropped his contact. i'm still not quite sure what he was even doing playing on the printer.

once you drop a contact in the printer, it's game over! raise your hand if you know what i mean!

don't be a chicken, and keep your contacts on your eyeballs!

p.s. sorry so random, there is absolutely no transitioning today!! i'm like a tornado!
