The Three Stooges?

Okay so I know I didn't really post about Christmas, but I had to write this one down because it was funny to me.

We were listening to the song "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas" and Cricket and I had the following conversation:
C: I don't understand how the three stooges sang this song.
M: I don't know. I guess they sang it in one of their movies.
C: What movies?
M: The Three Stooges were in like 50 movies.
C: That doesn't make any sense. Aren't the The Three Stooges the Ghost Of Christmas Past, Present and Future?

It sure would be a different version of a Christmas Carol or of a Three Stooges Movie, depending on how you look at it.

On a different note, I need to comment on my last post and the Dewypig. I am a terrible mother! I did not have time to make dinner on Monday night and bought 50 Mcnuggets for $9.99 (shut-up! They're all white meat). Dewy ate 10 and kept asking for more, so I decided to let him eat until he said he was full. Half-way through number 20, he handed me what was left and said he was full. Sooooooo gross! About 30 minutes later he said, "My belly-button hurts where I ate all those chicken nuggets." Then he started in on, "I need to eat something to make these nuggets go away." In my defense it was a valuable lesson for him about how it's best to not over-eat and you can't fix a mistake by continuing the same behavior.

I have a Dewypig

What is a Dewypig? A little boy that today ate and entire bagel for breakfast. Then had a ham/egg/cheese sandwich and a butt load of sunchips for lunch. Then ate more chips, a yogurt, two string cheeses for a snack. Then had 11 chicken nuggets for dinner (and was very upset that there weren't anymore left). And finally ended the day with a few more sunchips and a chocolate covered granola bar. Now you know why I don't keep chips in my house and why I am going to school so that I can earn more money to buy groceries.

Happy Birthday to me

I know I need to post about Christmas and pretty much life in general. This is my journal and I have been letting it slide. School is keeping me pretty busy. If I have any free time I play pathwords on Facebook. It lets my brain shut off. I know it is an awful waste of time.

I put on this picture of my sweet Tilly because that is what she was and still is. She started saving money months ago to take me out to the movies for my birthday. We went to Gulliver's Travel's and she paid for everything. She was so excited because before we left I reminded her that we could take a can of food and get a free drink. We got there we saw my friend Jen in the parking lot and she gave us their left over popcorn from the giant refillable buckets. She paid for the tickets and bought us some twizzlers. It made me feel so special that she would want to do something nice for me and it was very cute that she was so happy that she saved money. I sure do love her. I will never forget that birthday present.

Also my parents gave me a really nice check. Jon's parents gave me some $ too, and my husband bought me an engagement ring. Yes we have been married 11 years, thank you very much. My brother and sister-in-law gave me a gift card to tai pan and I went and got a mirror for my entry way that I have wanted forever. Katie gave me a nice blow dryer because mine blew up and a gift certificate to get my hair done. I sure got spoiled. This will go down in history as my best birthday ever, except for our failed attempt to eat at Pirate Island Pizza. Half the games were broken and we waited for an hour and half before we left without our order because they were taking too long. They gave us a cheese pizza on our way out the door as an I'm sorry and we went through the drive thru at Wendy's.
