Yoinked from ron who yoinked it from eden. I admit it, I'm a yoinker (but only when I can't come up with anything to write on my own).

Lets101 - Free Online Dating

I'd say that's fairly accurate aside from the fact that I cannot predict the future. I'm sorry to disappoint!

On another note, we went to Perkins for dinner last night (kids eat free Wednesdays and Saturdays - gotta love that!). I was paying the bill when the Connor came up and asked me for a quarter. I had just gotten three of them back as part of my change so I handed him one. Well, I figured that Mason would want one too and to be fair (without looking to my right thinking he was standing there too) I said "I suppose you want one too?" Pookey (that's the hubby for those that don't know - there is a story behind the nickname) pipes up "Sure, I'll take it!" I guess Mason wasn't there after all, so Pookey took the quarter and walked away. This was very amusing to the cashier who was then laughing so hard she had tears in her eyes. She says "If it were only that easy to get rid of them all the time!" I'm glad we could make her night. To me it was just another episode of the 'S*** Family Theater.' We really never fail to amuse.

30 years ago today ....

.... I was brought into this world.

Today I do not turn 30.

I've decided though that I'm staying 29 forever, LOL.

Happy birthday to me!

Wasn't I cute? (I don't have my newborn picture so this one will have to do)

Milo's unofficial Halloween costume

Ready?



He's a "Jack in the box".

I crack myself up!

Uh oh - he does it too!

Mason, pictured here with the babies right after we found them, has inherited an unfortunate habit/trait of mine.

You see, I talk in my sleep. I don't always make much sense when I do - which is what he did last night.

Pookey and I were both awakened by Mason babbling at 2AM. It took me a second to realize what was going on. He appeared to be speaking backwards - he reminded me of the midget from Twin Peaks. I kind of remember telling Pookey that when were were both kind of half awake, but I could just be thinking that I said that. This isn't the first time that Mason has done this, but it's the first time that I found it funny enough to blog about.

The first time that Pookey experienced my sleep-talking was when we were dating. I had fallen asleep at his house and he was waking up to get ready for work when I rolled over to him and said, "YOU ARE NOT A COLANDER" and went back to sleep.

Most recently, I've started playing game shows in my sleep.

Yes, you read that correctly, game shows.

I woke Pookey up one night while I was playing Supermarket Sweep. He said I was reaching over him to his side of the bed looking for peanut butter. "Where's the peanut butter? I CAN'T FIND THE PEANUT BUTTER!!!"

Family Feud is another one that I'm good at in my sleep. "Name the top 5 phrases with the word 'love' in them." I had heard that on tv as I was falling asleep and as I dozed off and long after I had gone off to dreamland I was naming phrases.

There was another time that we were watching the Game Show Network as we were getting ready for bed (yes, that's a favorite here if you haven't caught on yet) and I was dozing off again. I remember this one a bit because I wasn't fully asleep. Pookey really likes this one - I think it cracks him up more than it does me. I asked him what the answer to the question was. He told me. Without missing a beat I asked, "What the heck was the question?"

I'm off to bed now myself, as I have to work in the morning and need my beauty sleep. ;-) What game show will I play tonight? I'm rooting for Jeopardy!
