but also evidence that I’m older than six…

My children just drank root beer that’s been sitting in the fridge, opened, ummmmm, let’s be nice and say about a week ago.   Oooohh weird, really? It gave me a full-body cringe too!

compelling evidence that I am not a grown-up…

We were having a load of sheetrock delivered today. The delivery men arrived, I showed them where to put the rock in the basement and then I sprinted for the other end of the house with my cell phone. Why? Because I didn’t know whether I was supposed to tip these men. And so I first called my husband, but he, apparently not being quite a grown-up either, didn’t know for sure*. So I had to CALL MY DAD**. If that’s not proof, I don’t know what is. (Yes, I tipped them… gave them a twenty and told them to have lunch on us***. They looked at me as if I were insane and said it wasn’t necessary. The 12 year old in me thought about snatching it back but I shoved it at them as they left.   

*  he guessed we should tip them $20
**  he said for sure that we should tip around $20
*** not even my own slick line — also suggested by my dad

banzai!

Ok, it seems I have a little love affair with sock monkeys. So imagine my delight when I saw this Sock Battle shirt from Threadless.

Take THAT you evil, athlete’s foot-breathing sock dragon. And that! 

Oh Ninja Sock Monkey… you’re my hero!
