Dear heavenly mother of dildos, Goddess to all below. Please let our friend Jap emerge from her sexual adventures shard free. May the glass of her dildo only be ribbed for her pleasure. May you be kind with temperature changes and the laws of nature. Amen. In the pussy.
DH has a truly amazing singing voice but for the effing life of him, cannot ever remember the actual lyrics to a song. There are so many times he will be singing (he sings all the time to himself) and I'll be listening and I'm like... "wtf are you singing those are absolutely not the lyrics"... Like "after the poison summer is gone" instead of "after the boys of summer have gone".
Then there is me. I remember, verbatim, lyrics to hundreds of songs. Like full on every word (thank you inside of CD case for providing the lyrics that I would read and memorize regularly). But my singing voice is criminal and bothers even my own ears... like the most tone deaf situation ever.
We're quite a pair.
I'm a combo of you and your husband. I have the lyrics to all 950 songs in my IPod memorized and I'm a soprano. I can't always sing the men's parts but I sure try.
My confession is that I'm slightly worried that people (other adults and maybe even kids) might consider my oldest kid to be annoying. There is a long backstory but forever he was painfully shy and he's really starting to come out of his shell. He is the sweetest kid ever but he's so insanely curious about everything. Like he wants to ask you one billion questions and have really intense, deep conversations about the universe and weather patterns and space travel and evolution and all other manner of subject.
He will not stop asking/talking until someone basically awkwardly extracts themselves from him. It makes me feel so bad because he is just genuinely curious and loves to learn new things, but there is no social awareness at all (duh, he's only 4.5) so sometimes I get sad for him and then uncomfortable-by-proxy for the person in the discussion, because they want to talk to the other adults at the party. I don't know how to really handle this because I really refuse to discourage his social outreach because it's huge for him, and I would never ever discourage his curiosity, but I also don't want him to be viewed as annoying by anyone. It breaks my head.
This is my DD. Every word of it, except she was never shy. I can see other kids even getting annoyed with her. I do try to discourage some of the social outreach because she has always been so...extra. But, I don't want her to lose her curiosity or her genuine interest in people.
When we first got aol/internet when I was a pre-teen I got online and found all of the lyrics to every song for my then favorite bands (Smashing Pumpkins and Nine Inch Nails). I printed them all. Pages and pages. I turned them into lyric books. I probably used all of the printer ink. My mom was so mad. I'm very WTF to myself that I thought that would be okay. I think I still have the lyric books in a bin in our storage room.
I found a binder full of song lyrics, email forwards and chat room conversations from my teenage years.

Here's my lame confession: I tried way too long and way too hard a few weeks to add little cheese emojis to my name after seeing (and coveting) @pineappleoranges fanciness.
I ended up missing some board drama and had to ask what the hell happened while I was faffing around with my name.
And I still couldn't figure out how to add the damn emojis and I was more disappointed than I should have been.
Also, (it's unimportant why I know these things), but in order to drive a really baller RV, you have to get a different class of license. Or hire a driver. I'm unsure which process would be more annoying... extra classes and retaking a driving test, or having to have a random person on my vacation but never having to drive.
Ha! So MH and I are already arguing over who has to drive (because we both want to drink and not drive a giant bus, yes we are arguing about our imaginary vacation 10 years in advance) and I suggested we get a driver and he said, "Cher, you're ridiculous." This makes me feel vindicated. I agree it would be weird but we both don't want to drive either. I may get out of bed just to gloat.
I know Larry happened. Please do not try to convince me otherwise. Please don't talk to me about coffee. I don't drink it. I don't caffeine. When I state my opinion, that is me chiming in on a topic. This is not me saying you suck at life if you do or feel differently. If I want to say that, I will. If I want to speak on you, I will.
I have no desire to go camping but something MH and I started talking about recently was when our family was a little older, we would love to rent a fancy RV and drive cross country, seeing Mount Rushmore, Minnesota State Fair and all those other things that you guys have spoken so highly of. This is very un-Cher like. But during this pregnancy, we decided we want to embrace our inner Griswalds and one day do really cheesy, fun family vacations.
RV's are nicer than some apartments! The only thing that sucks is hooking up the black tank to empty lol. But I would love to do this. You can still be, feel, live fancy AF, you're just traveling in an RV.
Also, hook a girl up with a bucket of cookies when you stop at the Minnesota State Fair
Trolling Beyonce is my fave because she could shit on the floor like that Flavor of Love girl and people would WK her. "That floor should be honored Queen Bey shit on it. I wish she would shit on me." - @arielmermaid

roguelily I read that like 50 times thinking you meant you were coming back to America and leaving your current country in the middle of the night. I couldn't fathom you leaving here. You're needed. I'm glad you decided to stay.

This was my favorite trip as a child. Granted, MN and SD aren't cross country for us but it was still a long drive. We did it last year in the minivan vs. an RV and with the miracle of DVD players the kids did great.
Be sure to swing by WI and I'll buy you a brandy old fashioned and some cheese curds.
I was a visual specialist at The Gap in high school and college. That's fancy talk for bitch that had to work all night setting up the displays.
But my first day on the job some super duper senior manager was visiting and asked me how long I had worked there. I was brand new, so she asked why I wanted to work for The Gap. I told her some line about my mom always shopping there and taking me shopping there blah blah blah. Well, it was Mother's Day weekend and the lady ate it up and sent me home with eleventy free things for my mom.
Ha! I was a visual specialist too. My sub specialty was the denim wall, lol.
And I am so, so, so, so tired of pretending to care about Minecraft
Oh
Is this your way of saying that you like Minecraft? Because I think that's great, and also would like to please send my kid to you for a few days. I iron his clothes and comb his hair.
My FFFC: I was planning on quietly leaving today for a year - well, until BB came back next summer. I've felt sad since the Larry hole has all but fallen apart and haven't felt like I've really made friends here on parenting even though I've been around a while. So I was having a "it's not you its me" moment and felt like I should just go.
But anyway, the last 48 hours on here have made me realize I care about People too much to peace out and so I'm staying.
helenahhandbasket ohhh I forgot that there were denim specialists! I loved working at the Gap. I was there for years.
AE had jean experts too. We had to know which ones were a little stretchy, which ones were a little more stretchy, and which were the most stretchy. There was a test on a computer.

Do this! We actually did this for our family vacation this summer. Flew to Montana, then cruised around Wyoming and Montana for a little over a week then flew home. Awesome awesome vacation! However, H says next time we go back we will skip the airstream and just stay at the four seasons in Jackson, Wy.
Did we pass some qualification round to become visual specialists? Or did we just show up on time and sober? #keytoretailemploymentsuccess
I feel like they lied to me and said I was really good at putting together outfits but really I was just eager and told them, "I have open availability! I can work until 5am! I'll go right from the Gap to class! Sure!"

Catching Up:
1- my kids love Charlie Brown. I'm sick of hearing them call people "blockheads" though.
2- my kids ask questions about the moon and the life of turtles all day. But mostly just to me or their grandpa.
3- I had a similar poop incident at the hospital after having ds1. A very nice nurse helped me while I prayed the floor would open up and take me away.
