I'm an idiot too

I am an idiot and do not remember how to reply to my friends' posts, so..... Pardon the Egg Salad (Because I can never spell your other name right) I would like to comment about the 80's toys. I must say I also enjoyed the Big Wheels and hope that they still come with that awesome handle brake that you could pull and stop really fast. Speaking of Barbies, I still have some that I ran across in the closet a couple of weeks ago. I must say I thought my Air Force Barbie was pretty cool, even though I lost her long ago. Not because she was Air Force, but because she was cool enough to have short hair. Although it's best to buy them with short hair and not try to make your other Barbies have short hair by cutting it. Did you know the hair doesn't grow back? What kind of crap is that??!!! Oh and be careful when crimping their hair as mother will note she smells burning plastic and then you're in trouble. Apparently you're not supposed to do that either. Speaking of toys, I was helping a friend go through her children's toys to pick out the items they no longer play with for the rummage sale. After a brief walkthrough of the "bins" and which items should be placed where I decided I have no idea what kids are playing with these days and find the names to be quite confusing. I remember something about little people and wee people and small people. And yes, they are all quite different. How can this be? Apparently little people are actually chubby little people and wee people fit in a backpack and small people are just that, small people. Let's not forget Polly Pocket who wears clothing that I thought resembled small pieces of garbage. Good thing I asked or she would no longer have any clothing. Seriously her clothes were smaller than a quarter. The shoes were about the size of a bead. I had enough time trying to keep pairs of Barbie shoes. Thanks for letting me share.

Love Us Not Eat Us

For my vegetarian friends, here is a website where you can get a free bumper sticker.

Also, check out my favorite website www.slickdeals.net if you have time. You can find some good deals and if you check out the forums you can pick up some freebies. :) Such as the one above. I hope you are all doing well. Oh and here's a little quote for fun. (Remember all of ours at 8034B?)

While waiting in the drive thru at White Castle my dear hubby says "If we were being attacked by zombies I would want to be at the White Castle. I bet you could snipe them from the roof."

Too many video games or too big a geek? I have no idea, but my reply was. "Did those words actually just come from your mouth?"

I miss you all. Hope you are well. Muah!

Yay for Summer

First, I have to say to veliobadgergirl (sp?) I absolutely love all of your pics you put on, especially kitters. Also, I think it was awesome and somewhat creepy that we ran into each other at Petsmart when we didn't think we would get to see each other. I honestly asked your hubby how he found me, more in the meaning of stalking than in "your husband saw us in line", but still I'm glad it happened. For those of you I didn't get to talk to, I was in town for a few days and due to the amount of family and the drama involved (you all know what I'm talking about) I didn't tell my friends I was coming so I wouldn't get your hopes up and then not be able to meet up with you. But alas I was able to see three and two until the wee hours of the morning. I miss Denny's, we don't even have one here. Anyway, I'm very much enjoying the summer off and even though the back to school sales are starting I'm dreading going back already. I don't think anyone but a teacher can understand how exhausting teaching is. I don't really have much else going on right now. My addiction to plastic and label making is still going strong and I have found a new addiction of seeking free samples for stuff online. Who doesn't need a million tiny packets of shampoo lurking in a drawer in their bathroom? Well, I hope all of you are well. I miss you. Take care.
