What does it say about me?

My 2 year old can tell me what toys they are currently giving away in the Happy Meal and he hasn't been there in at least two weeks.

Can anyone say "Too Much TV"?

Happy Birthday Madge!

Can't believe you're 50. I idiolized you in my early teens. Wow how time flies.

Penelope

I just watched the movie Penelope. It was awesome.

I'm about to watch Lars and the Real Doll. 180 degrees from the first movie. I heard that it is good though.

I'm back

I stopped blogging mostly because I shared the link and then I felt pressured to "perform". This is my soapbox so I felt locked down and maybe a bit censored. I've let enough time go by now so I think everyone has stopped checking for updates. I'll be back more often to update. If you're reading, don't tell me. I can't work for an audience. I need to believe that no one reads this. Thanks.

The Other Benjamin Wagner

When choosing Benjamin's name, I Googled the name Benjamin Wagner just to be sure there weren't any serial killers or the like with the same name. With that search, I found the other Benjamin Wagner. He's a song writer and performer and a producer at MTV. He is working on a documentary about his experiences with Mister Rogers and the message that was passed on to him.

That was three years ago. The film is getting closer to done. Go check him out. He's keeping a blog of his quest to complete the film. His music is great (available on iTunes BTW) and he's a really cool guy. I think the name Benjamin Wagner is magical. I think someday my Benjamin is going to do great things too.

Need something to put your woes in perspective?

This young woman and Mom of 2 toddlers just found out that she is NED. I've been following her blog since shortly after her diagnosis. I don't know her and have only commented on her blog maybe 2 or 3 times. She worked hard and kicked some butt. She never lost hope or backed down from the fight. She took it head on and even shared the experience with others so they could learn from her journey. This is a hero.

Good news!

My latest addiction

In case anyone still checks this blog from time to time, I want to share my latest addiction. This is worse than my addition to PostSecret because this one gets updated several times a day. Love, love, love it.

Postcards From Yo Mamma

It is somehow comforting to know that there are other nut job moms out there!

Snow STORM 08

Seriously, we're getting snow tomorrow. Possibly up to 3 inches. Now before you laugh hysterically, know that this will paralyze Atlanta and we'll be home bound for the weekend.

As any good Southern girl can tell you, I should be at the grocery store right now stocking up. My cart should be full of milk, bread, and all the necessary food provisions.

We have food and would by no means starve, but there are no Little Debbies, Ben and Jerry's, Doritos, or (gasp) cans of Diet Dr. Pepper. I'm scrapping by here on Diet Coke and Ruffles. My children won't starve, but I'll be totally emaciated by Sunday. I may be forced to drink milk. Oh the horror.

I still have a box of chocolate covered cherries from Christmas so I won't go down without a fight. And I just hid the last Fruit Rollup for myself. We have a brownie mix but it takes eggs and we're out. There is a can of frosting if I get desperate. Mom gave us a can of popcorn last month and there is still about 1/3 of the caramel corn. I better hide that too.

There is NO WAY that I'm going to the store tonight. These people are crazy in this town when there are rumors of snow. And Ed is working so I'd have to take my children with me. And I don't like to take them to the grocery store on a good day. They drive me batty at the store.

This is a HUGE risk, but I'm taking my chances that I'll be able to leave the house tomorrow. We've got six diapers in the house and if I can't go to the store tomorrow and we run out, we're potty training. He better be ready ;-)

Man, I feel like a rebel.

This is so cute -

And sadly I can relate in my tit for tat world.

In case you're wondering

what Madeline asked Santa to bring her, you can check it out for yourself.

Kitty Wigs

And really you shouldn't be surprised, she is a diva. And in case you're now trying to decide what kind of nut job makes this kind of stuff, I have no idea.

Dear Lord

Please give enough patience to take benjamin to the mall. Child services frowns on leaving toddlers home alone so although I know this is going to end in a meltdown I must take him.
