I just read Allison's blog. She is sick, poor thing, but every day ends with "Today I am thankful for..." Like today it is Nyquil for her. It is good stuff, I am also grateful for it, though I am not using it currently.
I am glad the Packers won, but what am I thankful for today? I am actually irritated right now by the volume and behavior in the house at the moment, and frustrated because the kids basically DO NOT LISTEN TO ME AT ALL. The oldest living here, that is completely true. If he complies it is a completely random event that occurred in sync with my command/request.
So I am thankful for....Today I watched that newest Jersey Shore online. I love it completely. I am from New Jersey, it is an accurate portrayal of guidos, but I will not say Italians. To be a guido is an affectation, not a ethnic thing. I am also thankful or my job, which I do adore. i am thankful that it is sunny out, though I did nothing outside. It was all do some cleaning, do some work, watch football game, now it's 4:30 and I have not had the outside experience for more than a few minutes. Unusual for me. Gonna be a whole week like that, a very busy week ahead.
I am thankful for reading, without which I would surely die. The printed word is how I cope. I just started reading Just Kids by Patti Smith. Talk about lovely writing.
Wish i could produce something decent myself but I am crabby crabby crabby. This would lead to something funny, but I am trying not to be negative since I read Allison's blog and was reminded of what a Debbie Downer I am. A mojo sucker, a spiritual parsite.
Hope I can find a sitter for the superbowl.
your posts crack me up! Im not much of a football watcher unless little Manning is playing :) Gosh I love that guy. Anywho, finding a babysitter is a challenge for sure! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteIt's funny that you mentioned Jersey Shore. My husband loves this show-I have other guilty pleasures like Keepeing up with the Kardashians. A few months ago he saw the season finale of the Shore and said, "What am I going to do with my fall?" Hilarious-

ReplyDeleteReading your post always put a smile on my face. It would have been fun to have this class face to face with you.
Thanks for the mention!!
ReplyDeleteSo many days later and I am wishing that Nyquil box wasn't empty.
I am really enjoying your blog. I love that you have shed the professor armor and are just being you. It is refreshing:)
