the friday funnies

1. Our living room walls are now trimmed in a beautiful bluish-greenish-grayish hue that, in the morning light pouring in from our eastern-facing windows, looks bright sky blue and horrid next to our sofa's faded green slipcover. SD says at least the conversation we had from 9 pm to 12 am the other night was good, right down to the relationship between barbie dolls and gender equality/inequality in our society (we're deep thinkers, okay). And I say, yeah maybe the next one we have re-painting in a different color will be even better. Worst part: before we decided that the color would not work, we purchased another whole gallon of the rogue color. I HATE to admit it, but I think I need Ty Pennington, minus whatever crack he is on. On second thought, I think I want the crack.

2. SD looked like a bizarre amalgam of Rambo and Robocop wrapped in ace bandages and ice last night after his soccer game. He played twice this week, so the HURT is on.

3. Yesterday as I was preparing supper, I found a toddler-sized t-shirt in our freezer next to the chicken nuggets.

4. Today, I met up with the SAME Crazy Vegan Lady (CVL) I saw in Marshall's about a month ago...in Marshall's AGAIN, and she told me the SAME story about how she breastfed her kids 'till they were 18. Well, not really, but stay tuned...more on this later, because it's oh-SO-worth elaborating on.

5. Yesterday, my genius younger sister (sorry, I'm too lazy to link her photo) sent me her latest Photoshop creations:

Personally, I think I look HOT in the second one, which makes up for the black eye in the first. And who needs Pitt when you've got SD. Hubba, hubba.
