35
I could not let this day pass without making a mention that today is Lovey's birthday. 🙂
I got him a couple of small things and we're going to go out to dinner over the weekend. He's a tough cookie to shop for!
I'm not always the best at remembering dates but his birthday is easy. Long ago, my grandmother used to say that, while I missed her birthday month, I did get her day. I got my grandfather's month. Which I always thought was pretty cool. And then along comes love who has my father's month and my mother's day. Kinda nifty.
Being born today makes you a Pisces but almost an Aries, otherwise known as on the cusp. They say that Pisces folk mix well with Cancers and Scorpios and Aries folks mix well with Leos and we Sagittarians. Since he's so close to Aries, we'll call it good.
Happy birthday, feliz cumpleanos, joyeaux anniversaire and all that jazz to Lovey!
I’ll take Human Anatomy for a laugh, Alex
It seems that the good stuff always happens during Jeopardy at our house. As per the norm, we were sitting around after dinner expanding our minds with a good dose of jokes thrown in for good measure. I believe the category was "No Bones about It" or something else cheesey like that where every answer was a bone in the body.
The clue of the day was a video clue and so one of the Clue Crew was standing next to a skeleton and started asking about the last bone in the spine.
You know, that one over there.
Right.
So, Kiddo, being the genius that she is, decides to yell out the answer.
"CERVIX!"
Thankfully, we were already done eating because had food been being consumed, it certainly would have been spewed all across the room.
Um, no. That would be coccyx.
Ohhh, she replied.
"Where's your cervix?"
HA! No way is my child having sex or even thinking about it.
Yes, I told her where it is to which she replied, oh, I was on the wrong side.
Life, in our house, is a sitcom.
Las cosas de Martes en el diez y ocho de Marzo (or Things on Tuesday on March 18)
Yeah, three years of high school Spanish, living in Mexico for two years and being engaged to a fluent Spanish-speaker means I should speak more Spanish! (Not just write it, where I'm pretty good.)
Things that I loathe today:
- freezing to death in the office
- super-loud ringtones…it's work folks, put it on vibrate
- not being able to see outside
- false advertising
- how quiet my phone is
- PMS
- my inability to come up with a topic that would sustain a blog on its own
And on the love side:
- only 9 more days till mini-vacation
- one full week of childless walking around the house nekkid (hooray for spring break and Mom!)
- planning summer vacation – man I love the Keys
- the plant on my desk that Lovey gave me for Valentine's day
- Kiddo's funny stories and funny stories about Kiddo
- yogilates or piloga, take your pick
- an extra $60 coming my way
- Don Omar, Daddy Yankee, Pitbull, reggaeton in general….yeah, I know, don't bother saying it
- Lovey with a new position (hopefully, keeping my fingers crossed!)
Goooooooo, Tuesday!
