Okay seriously. If you have $100,000,000 to spend on a house...you have way too much money.

Anyone want a coupon code for Omaha Steaks? 4 filet mignon, 4 top sirloin, 4 pork chops, 2 stuffed sole, 8 gourmet weenies, 10 steak burgers, 10 potatoes au gratin & a free set of knives for $59.99?

It expires next monday the 20th.

I am shamefully addicted to the YA series The Nannies. I like it so much better than the A-List or Gossip Girl or other books of that ilk. I guess because the girls in The Nannies are poor outsiders working as nannies in Beverly Hills, instead of being rich brats.

[info]lneef, did people still use the Five Forks shortcut to get to HSC when you were there? I went on a random thought tangent about it yesterday.


Cash slept for 10 hours, with about 90 seconds of being awake somewhere around two. I heard him cry and went in there, patted his back and kissed him and he was out again.

I didn't feel like going to the library today, and we had free coupons for Pump It Up, so I thought I'd give that a go again. As it turned out, Michelle was planning to go too, we met her & Andrew there.

Cash is still scared of Pump It Up! I think it's all the loud noise. As soon as we opened the door tot he inflatable room, he grabbed the doorframe and shook his head no no no.

He also didn't like that he had to wear socks. Like his mamma, he hates socks.

He basically clung onto my neck like a monkey for a half hour. He was interested in watching Andrew jump and wanted to hold some of the balls in the inflatable basketball court, but did not want to jump or run around on his own. He tolerated going down the big slides with me, but wasn't excited about it. He just doesn't like that place, which is crazy given how much he loves to jump.

He had much more fun after they shut it down & we left. Cash and Andrew chased each other all over the shopping plaza. They are so cute ow they play together now, it just melts my heart how Cash grins and giggles when Andrew runs after him.

We went into the western store because they got excited about the horsies, then to Family Dollar and let them explore. Michelle got a bag of Funyuns for Andrew, and Cash decided he liked them too. So they played with some giant plastic candy canes and shared Funyuns while we browsed.

Cash decided he wanted to lay down on the sidewalk for some reason & Andrew thought that was funny, so he laid down too. Here's me & Michelle with two floppy toddlers who don't want to get up off the pavement!

Eventually we got them back to our respective vehicles and went to Sonic. I got Cash some string cheese (I love that you can get string cheese at Sonic now!) and he and Andrew rode the merry go round a dozen times. It says it costs $.75 but it only took one quarter! So they kept putting money in & having a ball.

Cash was sleepy, and eventually asked me to pick him up and rested his head on my shoulder like it was all just too much for him. So we said bye bye and came home. He was asleep before we got here.

I ChaChaed while he slept and watched Brick on HBO. I love JGL & that movie. MAde my bimonthly Northern Essence order.

Wait, is bimonthly twice a month or every other month? I mean every other month.

Cash woke up at four, had watermelon and sweet potato, then we went walking. I took him to Winn Dixie because I needed salad, and he got to drive the race car. That made him happy.











Sean was here when we got home, so Cash and him spent some quality time together while I did laundry and had a shower.

We had leftover jambalaya for dinner, then settled in to 90210 while Sean grumbled from the other room about my poor taste in television. It was a stinky rerun though, so Sean got a reprieve and we watched half of Iron Man instead. I like it so far, more than I expected to. I have a (long dormant) crush on RDJr, I usually enjoy watching his films because the embers are still there.

Cash had his bath and went to bed without a fuss. Only took 20 minutes to snuggle him to sleep, less than usual even though it was a half hour early for bed. I guess we wore him out today!





I have to take Lola to the vet in the morning, she had a weird crusty/scabby patch on her back that needs medical attention. It's going to be interesting trying to wrangle a kitty and a toddler in the vet's office, especially if there's dogs there. But I'm tired of eating up our saturday family time with appointments, so we'll give it a go.

I'm fairly sure multiple people can use it. It's from a mailer, I don't know that they send a unique code to everyone. I', 98% sure that last time I shared this out more than one person successfully used the code.

I wish I could be like that! I can't sleep in the car ever. Or a plane. Sucks.

The asleep in the carseat shots are so sweet!

And you are right - bimonthly is every other month, semi-monthly is twice a month. Or so I would infer from my bimonthly water bill, which I pay 6 times a year :)

Actually, bimonthly has both meanings. Dictionary.com gives me this usage note:

All words except biennial referring to periods of time and prefixed by bi- are potentially ambiguous. Since bi- can be taken to mean either “twice each” or “every two,” a word like biweekly can be understood as “twice each week” or “every two weeks.” To avoid confusion, it is better to use the prefix semi- to mean “twice each” (semiannual; semimonthly; semiweekly) or the phrase twice a or twice each (twice a month; twice a week; twice each year), and for the other sense to use the phrase every two (every two months; every two weeks; every two years).

Exactly. It baffles people at work often, because we have bimonthly reports to do and in our case, it means twice per month. It's silly that it has two meanings!

What's Northern Essence? Is it fun face/body stuff?

Awesome custom scented stuff. I actually like Body Perfumery's scents better, but Northern Essence has the best baby wash, baby lotion & mommy conditioners around.

I actually loved Iron Man, and went in thinking "ugh, ok I'll let John have his one action garbage movie a year today..." & RDJr is TOTALLY hot.

I still need to make an order from Northern Essence. Maybe I will do that for my birthday. Although I was thinking about doing a much needed trip to Sephora instead...

I love the pics of Cash crashed out! So precious!!

Both :) I got shower gel for Sean, baby bath & lotions for Cash (plus more of the best diaper rash salve ever) plus conditioner for me, so everybody wins!

Happy day before your birthday!

Not just yes but HELL yes.

Did you guys drink the fence? That was our big tradition. Chug something while driving along the white picket fence on the left. You could get down about one wine cooler while doing it, and by the time it was gone, you'd be about a mile from pulling in the front gate.

And before I get a lecture about drinking and driving from anyone, it's completely legal to drive on the BAC one drink gives you. (Now, doing it WHILE you're driving is another matter... but point is, we weren't impaired. Yet.)

I don't think that fence was there, actually! There was a post and wire fence near that area, but most of the last half was just trees that deer would pop out of. I saw an albino doe there one morning at sunrise n my way home, it was magical.
