what the hell?

so today I'm at work minding my own damn business and that of all the people's paychecks I'm in charge of when hot husband calls me to tell me that he has shattered the damn screen on his mobile phone. the very mobile phone that i purchased for him not two months ago cause he had busted the damn screen on his old one. i was really just glad that he didn't shattered the car of his legs. note to self, run by Verizon and get me a stylish new cute phone and give Kenny my old phone.

then not an hour later my off spring calls me from my moms mobile to say, "omg mom, everybody at school has these bracelets that turn into a animal when you talk them off and i really have to have some! please, can we go get some tonight? i have to have them, I'm the only one that doesn't have any. please? you're the best mother ever!" oh yeah, he's got my number.

so I'm all picturing this cute little furry slap bracelets that have an animal head on one end and can i just say that i was way off. course so was chandler, when he told me they were one dollar for a pack of twelve.

i spent the last thirty minutes of work calling every specialty toy store and parent-teacher store in Franklin only to be told that, 'we're sold out, we'll have another shipment in a few days.' what?

i finally found one store with 24 boxes of them, but of course they couldn't hold me one as every bitch in Franklin was calling to get them, so it was first come, first serve. i nearly killed 4758 people on the interstate rushing to get the one thing my child didn't have just so he wouldn't feel left out.

i get there only to find out that they are in these cute little Chinese plastic cases and their full of brightly colored animal shaped rubber bands. no, I'm not shittin you......and they were at the low, low price of 8.99 a box of about 20. um, dude am i gonna get to see someone naked and the rubber bands for that price? shit! yes, i just threw down 19.86 of my hard earned money for some fucking tiny ass neon animal shaped rubber fucking bands.

but my child was totally stoked that I'm such a fabulous mom and i got a cute phone to boot.....oh, and after he sat there and put all of those bracelets on his arm he actually turned to me and said, 'i don't like the rubber feel of em.' I'm home schooling that little street urchin starting tomorrow.

then i walked in the door and handed Kenny my old phone and he actually had the giant balls to say, 'where's my new phone, my birthday was yesterday and i should get a new phone.' fucker you should just be glad that you have a phone that doesn't have a shattered screen just like your last two phones.....one of these days, Assjacket.....straight to the moon.

I remember those days of running all over hell and high water looking for what my kids just had to have. I think it started with the Pound Puppies, He Man, then on to Zelda, Pokie Mon and Game Boy. UGH!

Happy Birthday Kenny!

It just never stops....I can remember the hell I went through trying to get a f--king cabbage patch doll that she just HAD to have RIGHT AWAY or she would DIE. Because EVERY kid in the WORLD EXCEPT HER had one. Yeah I found one buried behind and underneath a bunch of stuff at the store (some mothers never learn...that trick is OLD) but not before I stressed myself to the max and went through a tank of gas. She played with it for all of 10 minutes. grrrrr

Okay my time to gripe I am the proud owner of the first cell phone ever made and when I mention it I get this WHEN ITS TIME FOR YOUR UPGRADE WE WILL GET YOU A CUTE ONE HAHAHA.Since I have been here three years Tina has had about 4 new better phones and I can't seem to carry one because I drop the things all the time I don't know how many hes's had ,so could someone have pity on me for once or am I going to have to shatter my screen.We all know he does this on purpose any way.

maybe i should return your tv and get you a new phone that you don't need. you don't do anything on it but talk, you don't text, you don't take photos, you talk and your phone is just fine for what you do with it.....so stop whining.

I came across this....and knowing that you are an avid scrapper...I wondered if you have this neat item or even knew about it. For only $33, (on sale)...it sure looks like it does a lot and does it easily. Let me know what you think. Go here:
