Facebook thoughts...

I was perusing my face book, and it kept prompting me to add people, because other people that were my friends were their friends.  I looked at a lot of them and clicked on the mutual friends... because I wanted to see how these people were in my circle... Wow Its amazing how many people I don't remember from high school.  Sad, but I was a whole lot of self absorbed and focused on the wrong things... that's all I'm saying.  Plus, I really wasn't allowed to go anywhere or do anything with anyone.  LOL I can't say that they remember me much, and I'm hopeful that if they do, they don't think I'm still that idiot self absorbed person. 

Ha ha, or maybe I am... Oh well.  I really love face book, because I have connected with people that I normally would not have spoken to again in my life... very cool... On the other hand, I have deleted and been deleted.  I guess they didn't like me very much... hahaha.  I do like that I can just randomly post things and the people that matter are the ones that get what I'm saying.  I like that... because being "gotten" is pretty nice sometimes...

Parents just don't understand...

Soooo don't understand why talking to your parents can be so aggravating... I mean these are the people that are supposed to love and support you. Yet, somehow they make me feel like a total idiot... amazing. I know they mean well, but seriously. My hope is that when my children grow up I will respect the fact that they actually survive outside of my care, and in turn, respect their chosen life choices. In the mean time, I make sure they understand that I'm here for them and they can tell me anything and won't freak out...

The lesson in the car on the way to school this morning was sarcasm, and not fighting/aggravating with your sister or brother.  I'm sure my kids are like "OMG mom won't shut up again... Ugh".  Oh well, I look forward to the time in the car so as to better educate my kids on why I said so... I realize I don't have to explain or rationalize.  But I like to, partly because if people tell me something, I want to know why, and because I like to lecture, hehehe...  I know that eventually some small part of what I say sinks in, but I also like to talk so its win-win either way...

Venturing to Cartoonville...and other places kids live part-time...

After watching several cartoons and some of the newer kids shows, I have come to the conclusion that in my next life, I'm living in Cartoonville... I mean, where else can you befriend a talking sponge that works as a fry cook, underwater, where you then drive to the beach in a boat, all while working for a crab and with a squid.. being bestfriends with a starfish.  I'm just sayin... for that matter, I saw where the Smurfs are making their big screen debut this summer...   HMMM  so we may just get the explaination of how the smurfs procreate with just one girl...  I look forward to knowing that, and I'm hoping not to waste an hour and a half doing that.. we will see...  Watching these shows for kids I can see where some of their randomness comes from.. My generation had Punky Brewster and then Full House... My favorite of these days is iCarly, its definitely funny and original... realistic without the lameness of reality.

The first day...

Such a beautiful day outside, kind of windy... Amazing how I want to write something brilliant and profound, but am now drawing a blank.  Writers block does exist.  haha... Teagan is even looking at me like, come on Mom, get it together.  Too bad shes going to take a nap soon.  I have decided that job hunting is a full time job in itself... and working from home is not the job of dreams...  atleast not when you have a small child running around.  I'm so glad to have had the chance, don't get me wrong.  But it's about time I light a fire and get a move on...
