The Nurturing Parent

In order to foster confidence and self-esteem, it's important to let your child win at simple competitions.

Unless, of course, it's "Just Dance" for Wii on Christmas morning.

In which case you should crush them like a bug.

Great News About My Butt

Seriously, this is just so exciting.

Turns out, I DON'T have to work out 6 days a week, have a personal trainer, and deny myself sugar and carbs.

I just have to wear different SNEAKERS.

Holiday Recipe

This just in from my college roomate:


Jose Cuervo Christmas Cookies


1 cup of water
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup of sugar
1 tsp salt
1 cup or brown sugar
4 large eggs
1 cup nuts
2 cups of dried fruit
1 bottle Jose Cuervo Tequila

Sample the Cuervo to check quality. Take a large bowl,
check the Cuervo again, to be sure it is of the highest quality,
pour one level cup and drink.

Turn on the electric mixer. Beat one cup of butter
in a large fluffy bowl.

Add one peastoon of sugar. Beat again. At this point
it's best to make sure the Cuervo is still ok, try another
cup just in case.

Turn off the mixerer thingy.

Break 2 leggs and add to the bowl and chuck in the cup
of dried fruit.

Pick the frigging fruit off the floor.

Mix on the turner.

If the fried druit gets stuck in the beaters just pry
it loose with a drewscriver.

Sample the Cuervo to check for tonsisticity.

Next, sift two cups of salt, or something. Who geeves
a sheet. Check the Jose Cuervo. Now shift the lemon juice and strain your nuts.

Add one table.

Add a spoon of sugar, or somefink.. Whatever you can
find.

Greash the oven.

Turn the cake tin 360 degrees and try not to fall
over.

Don't forget to beat off the turner.

Finally, throw the bowl through the window, finish the
Cose Juervo and make sure to put the stove in the wishdasher.

Jesus: Actually he does, and tells me.
Me: Awesome.
Jesus: (gets out file) Shall we?
Me: I'm kinda busy. I was just going to write Christmas cards.
Jesus: No you weren't. You were going to watch VH1's Sex Rehab.
Me: WHILE I was cleaning the kitchen.
Jesus: L.O.L.
Me: You can't say "L.O.L" You can only write it.

The Next Person Who Asks If I'm 'All Ready for Christmas' Is Going to Get Shanked

(Editor's Note: I was 98% sure "shanked" was the right word so I Googled it. And while it does, in fact, mean 'stabbed in the jugular', it also means 'a family of wading birds'....so: bonus for you: you learned a new word.)

No. I'm not "ready".

The cards are not written, the outdoor lights are half up and, as of this writing, are staying that way in protest. The 3rd grade teacher is in danger of getting a "World's Best Teacher" mug. The garbage man better not look at me sideways between now and December 23rd because for reasons known only to him and the mafia, he insists on leaving my empty trash cans smack in the middle of my driveway.

OK. Now I want take a bitching break and say "How much do I love THIS dude from Charlie Brown:

'So freaking much', is the answer.

Back to our regularly scheduled program......

Can we talk about how no one's allowed to say "Christmas" anymore? Only "Holiday".....and now even that's too discriminatory against agnostics, apparently, so THIS is the decorations from the town next door to mine NO LIE:

Really? ? ?

"Winter"??????????????

Why don't we just change Valentines Day to "Heart Day" so we don't offend "Relationship-Challenged-Americans"???????????

I know. My Xanax is not working.

I better be good so Santa brings me a good present..

Thoughts On Tiger By Request

So I've gotten a few emails from readers saying "Aren't you going to comment on Tiger Woods?"

And the answer is, I think I covered all my thoughts on Tiger in my latest Twitter posts:


Um, Tiger? You can marry the blondest, most Nordic-looking chick on the planet - but if you cheat, she will go ghetto on your ass.

My Bad, I've Been Bloated.

Sorry about the whole "not posting" thing.

Between hosting Thanksgiving and seeing New Moon 4 times I've been wicked busy.

You know, working leftover stuffing into every meal and jumping in on heated online discussions as to why Robert Pattinson's left nipple is bigger than his right.

The good news is, my husband has agreed to see the movie with me to "see who this Taylor Lautner is".

The bad news is, he's gonna figure out that he's 17. Cougar fail.

Speaking of, here's something disturbing in a genius kinda way: My 9 year old created THIS using Photobooth on my computer:

I'm pretty sure this is where I should be sitting her down for some sort of talk, but really I'm just kind of in awe of her skillz and artistic vision.

What else did you miss....

Oh: In case you were wondering if the brain of the Giant Schnauzer corresponds to his massive size?

OK, first up: "Funny Things Husbands Do".

Yeah. That's the kitchen TV remote velcroed to the TV.

So when we want to turn on the TV from across the room, we have to walk all the way over to it, remove the remote from its handy holster, then use it.

I'm just sayin'.  It's called a "remote" for a reason.

Moving on.

Do we not have any OTHER photos of Kalid Sheik Mohammed ?

I call this one "Manscape 911".



In national news, I just read on Fox News that a guy who claimed to be a ninja impaled himself on a fence. Quote:

"Police spokeswoman Renee Witt wrote in a department Web site posting that officers thought the man might have been involved in a reported assault, but he insisted he was just a ninja trying to clear a 4- to 5-foot-tall fence.

Witt says the man was "overconfident in his abilities," and that alcohol likely played a role."

Awesome.

The One Where The Kid Walks In On Us

Holy Mother of God.

I really never thought this day would come.

We've been locking the bedroom door for 13 years.

THIRTEEN YEARS, people.......Thirteen years that, while rife with interruptions ("Mom? Mommy? Mom? Where are you? Mom? Mom! MOM!!").......have never experienced a security breach. Until Saturday.

This? was a security fail of epic proportions.

Apparently my husband in his - cluelessness enthusiasm  - turned the lock in the door handle but didn't shut it completely so the latch never engaged.

Fast forward to Repertoire Move #4.5, Stage II and cue 9 year old.......in full bust-in mode - no knock, just BAM! -door open -

and the next 20 seconds are a jumble in my mind  - I know I yelled "JEEEEZUSSS!!!!!" and flew off the bed knocking my husband backwards with a Neo from The Matrix sideways slo-mo dive only without guns. And naked.

The 9 year old ducks back out trying to process the image that is now seared into her brain for all eternity, while I do the only logical thing, which is to repeatedly punch my husband in the shoulder screaming "ASShole!"

So now the world as we know it has ended, my daughter is struggling with all the possible meanings of what she saw, I'm frantically trying to come up with explanations - We were kissing??? We were wrestling???? Daddy was helping me apply self-tanner???.....

and my husband, because I can always count on him to lead this family in moments of crisis, says,

"So....... can we keep going?"

Weekend LOL Video

An oldie but a goodie.......


Kid has a totally awesome freakout over his mom cancelling his "World of Warcraft" video game account.

Apparently I'm Not a Carrot.

Yeah, I didn't know what a "carrot" is either.

Turns out, it's an attractive runner in flattering run-wear that, theoretically, would be motivating for the male runner to follow, like a horse following a carrot.

So. Backing up. I ran a 5K Saturday with my daughter for charity.

And I wore this:

And I'm all proud of myself and exhausted but feeling pretty badass for completing it and my friend Sharon pulls up in the car next to me and rolls down her window.

Sharon: Hey! Good job! You guys made a pretty good time!

Me: Thanks!

Sharon: But yeah- we need to talk about your running gear.

Me: What-this?

Sharon: Yeah, the baggy sweatshirt and sweatpants and 2 pounds of keys?

Me: Not so much?

Sharon: No. Not very aerodynamic. I'm taking you to TJ Maxx.

I'm thinking my look is more "eggplant."

Sleepwalking Pills

So I complained to my doctor about a month ago that I'm having trouble sleeping, he prescribes me "Zolpidem" and of course I don't read the instructions.

Which are mostly warning you not to take the pill til you're in bed.

So I take it while I'm still at my computer, fall asleep sitting up, get woken up by my daughter, and walk into a wall.

I tell my mom the story and she's all: "It's not Ambien, is it? Because people do weird things on Ambien." and I'm all "No, no, no - it's Zolpidem."

Which upon closer scrutiny of the package insert today, is the generic name for Ambien.

So I finally read the insert and check THIS out: Here are some of the things you might do and not remember the next day:

"Sleep-driving" and having sex.

Dude. If I'm getting up in the middle of the night to drive somewhere and have sex, I better damn well remember it.

You know how it sucks to have a boss that's a know-it-all toolbag that never listens to your suggestions?

That's how my car GPS feels about me.

Me: "That makes no sense."
GPS: "In about 500 feet..bear right onto US...Route 1 South."
Me: "Nah. Screw that."

Me: "Please Shut UP."
GPS: "Please make a legal U-turn, if possible."
Me: "Just relax. I know what I'm doing."

Me: "I've lived here for 3 years. This is NOT the quickest way to the mall."
GPS: "My brain is a digital map of the entire country based on a satellite in SPACE, Bitch."
Me: "Your MOTHER is a satellite."

Me: What?
GPS: "There's a gym up here. You need that more than the mall."
Me: "Brrrring! Hello? It's for you: It's Al Gore: he wants his personality back."
GPS: "1992 called: it wants its haircut back."
Me: "Google Earth wants you to stop stalking him on Facebook."

Comment of the Day

I always know something's up when the comment that arrives in my email is from a post written 2 months ago.


So this morning I get a comment regarding my August 9th post, "The Ice Cream Truck":

Ernie Fidanza said...

Having an ice cream makes people very at heart.. Most people feels excited when they hear the tune from the ice cream truck.. Makes them to scream for an ice cream..

OCTOBER 2, 2009 3:26 AM

OK, this warrants some investigating, no doubt. As we learned from Oliver/Wilson, when it comes to bizarre comments, where there's smoke, there's fire.


So I click on Ernie Fidanza's link and - no shocker here - Ernie has a fleet of ice cream trucks for hire.


You don't need to go there, I'll just give you a sampling of the persuasive salesman that is Ernie Fidanza:


"I mean everybody loves ice cream; it brings out the kid in us. Or it does me anyway."


"Our goal is to have everyone leave with a smile and a spot of ice cream on your shirt."


"The days of selling ice cream from converted post office or bread vans are numbered. "




Who can argue with that? I hate getting my ice cream from a converted post office.


Sell on, Ernie Fidanza.......




Oops I just realized I didn't give you a graphic for this post.

Ghosts, Goblins and Sluts

Here is my question.

When exactly did Halloween become "Dress Like a Whore" Day.

I took my 12 and 9 year old daughters to one of those "pop-up" Halloween stores yesterday, and since the tween is now too big for the kids' section, we browsed the adult section.

Holy ho-bags.

Do they have a nurse costume? No. Slutty nurse? Sure.

Angel? No. Slutty angel? You bet.

Slutty leprechaun, slutty referee, slutty cop, slutty devil, slutty girl scout, slutty schoolgirl, slutty Dorothy, slutty nun and even slutty gardener.

Slutty gardener?

Plus there's a whole section of clear stripper heels, vinyl boots, fishnets and thigh-highs. I guess the slutty gardener would lose some street cred sporting flowered gardening clogs from Smith & Hawkins.

(this is where the gardener's knee pads comment goes but I'm obstaining...)

Anyways.

All I'm saying is -  they're only children. And as the parent, it is up to you to choose something classic and appropriate.

Like I did for my 9 year old.

Weekend LOL Video

I had not one but TWO separate readers email me this video to use this weekend.

So, by request:

Dental Warrior

When I was a child, I had Lucifer as a dentist.

And my mother will tell you that absolutely was not his name. And I will tell her AGAIN that maybe his "Earthly pretend name" was something else, but it absolutely was The Dark Lord, Satan, Voldemort, whatever.

And he would drill our cavities WITHOUT NOVACAINE.

I really should have like a tooth tattoo with teardrops and "Never Forget" on my bicep so people "get" me.

So NOW to get a CLEANING I need to be drugged up on Xanax or I'll start having post-traumatic stress flashbacks worse than a Viet Nam vet.

So I go in today and the whole office treats me like a mental patient, and kind of herds me around like an elephant that's been shot with a tranquilizer gun.

But look! I did it. And I got a sticker.

Yay, me.

Pimping This Other Blog For Eternal Life

People ask me all the time, "If you were stranded on a desert island and could only bring ONE blog, which one would it be?"

OK people never ask me that. But I will tell you anyway.

They do ask me which Jonas brother I would bring- Joe, obviously - stupid question.

Duh.

So right now some of you are thinking "Why would you tell people to go to someone else's blog?" - to which I have a 3-part answer.

#1. I live to make my readers happy.

#2. If he becomes a super-famous writer he'll probably take me along to his Ellen and Today Show appearances because after all I wrote a post about him which catapulted him onto the Forbes list and is the reason he's dated all 3 of the Kardashian sisters.

OR ....

#3. What if it's Jesus. You know, pretending to be "one of us" like in that Joan Osborne song and I come along and out of the kindness of my heart tell all my readers about his blog and then he's all:

"Behold! Blessed be the glorious soul who went forth and proclaimed my greatness on the interwebs." and I'd get, like, everlasting life and a miracle boob lift.

So.

My favorite blog:

Go. Laugh. Subscribe. You're Welcome.

The Monster Apathy

Weekend LOL Video

The best reason to have a nanny-cam:

Supersize Me

OK. I hate to cook. There it is.

Hate it, hate it, hate the mess, hate the cleanup, hate all of it.

When you look up my blogger profile you won't find that my other blog is "Happy Hour Sue In The Kitchen!". (but do feel free to enjoy "Inappropriate Twilight Obsession".

So every time my husband goes away on business, I take a cooking vacation. Culinary outsourcing. EVERY time. Lazy, party of 1. 'Cause that's how I roll.

Whether it's one night or five, you're more likely to find a pygmy stripper playing Dance Dance Revolution in my kitchen than a warm fry pan.

(whoa- I can't seem to shake that visual...)

Anyway. Of course I always get busted when my husband calls.

Husband: Hey! What're you guys doing?
Me: Oh you know, same old.- Gettin' ready for dinner...
Husband: Yeah? What's for dinner?
Me: What?
Husband: What's for dinner?
Me: Don't let the dog get that!!! Sorry. Stupid dog.
Husband: What're you making?
Me: Oh! Tonight? The kids wanted Taco Bell....
Husband: Didn't you do Burger King last night?
Me: What?
Husband: Didn't you just have Burger King?
Me: What? No. Oh! Yeah. We were out.
Husband: Out?
Me: Yeah. Out....getting Burger King.
Husband: (sighs) Are they getting ANY vegetables this week?
Me: Totally. Monday we had Subway.
Husband: Collin has onions, Lorelei likes it plain and Brie has bacon.
Me: Oh shoot! The toilet's overflowing!
Husband: Just make 'em some pasta or something tomorrow...
Me: Right. Or pizza. Probably pasta. Italian for sure.

Random

So I've been getting a lot of comments lately like "You should post more often", to which I usually respond with the standard "Your MOTHER should post more often."

Which always endears me to my readers.

So I asked some people if I should just post random unrelated crap if I don't have a full post to write and they said "What? Oh, sorry- I was reading Dooce's very long and well-written post."

So, Random Crap:

Comment of the Day

First of all, here's why Google Images is awesome.

To find a graphic for this post, ('cause I always give you guys a graphic 'cause I am FULL SERVICE like that) I searched "woman computer" and found THIS

Which, on an ordinary day would be an unsurpassable find, except that further down I saw THIS chick with the Headline "Woman Arrested for Beastiality"..

Turns out, she called the cops to turn her boyfriend in for child pornography, but when they searched the computer, they found 2 videos of her having sex with a beagle.

***Awkwarrrrrd***

You can read about it here.


Anyway. On to today's comment.


Oliver has left a new comment on your post "Duggars. Again.":
