Three cheers for George Michael!
So the former WHAM! frontman was arrested for possession of crack cocaine in a public restroom. I’m not cheering that. What I’m impressed by is his statement (according to the BBC):
“A 45-year-old man was arrested on 19 September on suspicion of possession of drugs in the Hampstead Heath area,” a Metropolitan Police spokesman said.In a statement Michael said: “I want to apologise to my fans for screwing up again, and to promise them I’ll sort myself out. And to say sorry to everybody else, just for boring them.”
bwahahahahha! Who says drugs are bad? Just look at the sense of humour on that coked-up bloke!

I did let her go to school like this, right down to the Leprechaun socks!

Spring, um, break…
Since I know you’re all dying for a few details from our recent Spring Break adventure, let’s review:
- 1 bad haircut (me)
- 4 separate kid puke episodes
- 20+ hours in the van
- 1 period, 5 days early, complete with…
- 1 humongous raging boil, smack in the middle of my face
- 1 duck through a plate glass window
- 16 people for Easter brunch
- 6 dozen eggs to help color
- 1 smashing into the in-laws’ van (yes, by me)
- 506 unread posts in my blog feed (seriously, Apartment Therapy, slow down!)
- 5 different types of weather on Easter Sunday (rain, snow, sleet, hail, sun… no, I am not lying!)
- 3 bazillion pounds of candy
- many sleepless nights
This was not the most restful of holidays. I think next time we’ll all just stay home and sit and stare at one another.Spring “break” indeed…

just check me into the home now…
My mildly-OCD six-year-old has been poring over her bank contents this afternoon, and just ran into the room SOME VERY EXCITING NEWS! Â
“Hey Mama, Mama, guess what?! This penny right here is the OLDEST penny I have… guess when it was made? 1996!  And you can EVEN STILL READ THE WRITING ON IT!â€Â   Â
uh, yeah, thanks kid.Â

You’ve already won me over…
An Alanis kind of irony may just be the most brilliant Indexed yet. Â

bwa ha ha hahahahaha!
Ok, not only do I love the retro photos on these “I’m Saving Up for…” banks, but look at them! They’re shaped like the old Band-Aid boxes! One of THE main building blocks of my youth craftmania.
They’re all pretty funny, but the Therapy one is my favorite. I’m afraid I’ll need three, please.

appeasing the elderly…
I needed to go to the store yesterday so  I asked the four year old what kind of “regular week cereal” she’d like for breakfast. “Regular Week Cereal,” as opposed to “Saturday Cereal,” the difference being that I can only stand to be around three hopped-up children one morning a week and not seven.Â
She had a particular cereal in mind but she couldn’t remember the name. She described it for me several times, ending up with “it’s like those grapey things, but smaller and like sticks — little sticks that are brown and smaller than Grape Nuts.” I think and think and think and finally it comes to me. My child wants me to buy her All-Bran.Â
Oh, did I say that she’s four? I meant 84. Gives new meaning to “regular week cereal” though, doesn’t it?
