I was in my car today, driving past all the packed bars, filled with St. Paddy’s celebrations, and it got me thinking. First, I thought about wanting a beer. But a) I was on my way to my volunteer gig with animals. And b) no thank you for amateur day shenanigans. I’m a pretty loud […]
Tag: stupid stuff i do
Face palm
Ever have one of those days where you switched bags and your key is attached to the other bag and you used the spare key this morning and forgot to put it back and there’s a tsunami outside and your window is already partly broken but you’re pretty sure it’s unlocked but then it isn’t […]
Not really sure that this post even needs words to go along with it…
Tabitha makes a lovely elephant, don’t you think? Everybody looks SUPER happy in this one! Piper’s just making sure that Milo is ok. He is. He told me! He was all, “Thanks, mom, for my super awesome monkey sweatshirt! I’d like to wear it every day, please.” (Or he rolled around on the floor trying […]
Snowmaggedon arrives at our house, I react accordingly, by which I mean I pretty much sit on the couch the whole time
So, we had a huge snow storm here in MA this last weekend. I am notorious for doing stupid things in bad weather (see here for the amazing story of how I overcame my parents’ icy driveway and scared the bejeezus out of every resident squirrel nearby) but I stayed off the roads during this […]
I’d get a lot more accomplished if I could remember things.
So I was “helping” Matt out in the kitchen last night (I’ll let you catch up here on my quality kitchen skills) and I discovered that the packet for the oatmeal I’d made that day doubles as a measuring cup for the water. Pretty crafty! As I was explaining this to him, I forgot what […]
Somebody at Shutterfly thinks we’re super weird
Matt loves coffee, so making mugs for him is the obvious next step, right? For the last few years, I’ve been using Shutterfly to make them and I can only imagine the face on the person that inspects the mugs for quality assurance. Oh, these are quality, all right! Family portrait! This one looks (sort […]
If you like these songs, you should definitely swing by our house
Matt has XM Radio and has introduced me to some new music. Actually, now that I think of it, we discovered some of these songs through commercials. Which is kind of embarrassing. Also, I really want to work at Sam Adams. Anyway, new music is great, right? Totally. Except that I have a somewhat obsessive […]
Oh, I’m not so good in the kitchen…
I try really hard to do a great job cooking, but I am not what you would call one who achieves in this arena. Matt actually convinced me at one point that water could be burned. He’s really good at making me believe ridiculous things and there’s always that moment when I go, “That’s just […]
