Logan was feeling a little blue this morning about me going into work, so I thought I’d cheer him up a bit. I was putting up my hair and he was on the potty…

Me: “Logan, do you know what two of my favorite things are about you?”
Logan: [slow smile]
Me: “I love that you are sooooo smart, and that you are sooooo cuddly. You are very loving.”
Logan: “Heh.” [big grin]
Me: “Soooo… what are your favorite things about me?”
Logan: “Ummm… umm…. umm… ” [looks up at me appraisingly]
Me: “Yes?”
Logan: [big grin] “The way you look right now.”
Me: “Awwwww. Thank you, baby!”
Logan: “I like that pink sweater, and those white pants.”
Logan: “And do you know what I hate?
Me: “What’s that, honey?”
Logan: “My butt itches!”

[sound of record screeching to a halt]

Aaacckkk! And look what just ran into the office at me and my white pants! I brought a whole basket of black cherries home last night…

Do I lie? I just knew that re-posting that questionnaire would yield Easter Eggs!!! Oh, man, it’s going to STAY at the top all day!

Here is the comment I just left for Pam, resplendent in all its sparkling typos as a result of trying to type quietly and swiftly so as not to wake the baby…

Oh mah everlovin god god,Pam! I was tooling along with a small, sardonic smila (see, I pay attention), and suddenly, WHAMMO! You have anothe fresking blog??? Three seconds into it, and I am frantically trying to remember blogrolling’s URL. [“A, B, C, D, “] [carry the one]

“Hello, every-bod-eee!” Wheee! I am so happy with this result—I love him so. Via Pam, the font of all dysfunctional quizzes.

Sunday, June 06, 2004 Bad Mood Dude

OK people, listen up (heh?it?s never good when I start out this way, is it?):

When someone is in pain, in mourning, in the emergency room, in the doctor’s office, or even within earshot, do not, I repeat: do not say this to another human being. Ever.

“Ya know, whenever something bad happens to me, I think back to something bad that happened two or three years ago and JUST CAN’T remember why it seemed so bad at the time.”

Not to overshadow the immense loss and heartwrenching personal tragedy Ollie suffered this weekend, but I can’t get over the urge to strangle the spectacularly clue-free medical professional (!) who thinks this is helpful. Gah.gurgle.strangle.burble.gah.gah.gah.

I’ve decided to give a really, really, super-uber cool gift to the 50,000th visitor to this blog. I don’t know what it’ll be, exactly, and it may be influenced by the recipient, but it will be nifty. I promise.

We’re still a ways away, but as we are at 49,599 at the mo, it could happen by the end the the day tomorrow.  Oh, and by the way, I am under an incredible freaking deadline so if I don’t catch it, a screen capture would be lovely!!!
