Haiku Friday…If The Shoe Fits… August 1, 2008

Gossip-So NOT cool!

Spreading rumors and half truths-

you have WHAT to gain?

You just look stupid.

And ignorant. And petty.

Get a fricking life!

You look just as bad.

Really…worse…than the people

you’re talking about.

Think before you talk.

Because, you point a finger,

three point back at you!!

Recently, my friend and I have been named in some stupid rumors that are going around. It’s so incredibly insulting. Get a life you moronic gossip-mongers. Seriously. Are you really THAT bored? Is your life THAT unsatisfying, that you need to bring other people down with you? Maybe consider picking up a hobby. Or…maybe go work-out. Go for a jog. Get a JOB. GET A LIFE!!!

I don’t gossip. I have my own life to worry about so trust me…I’m not that into yours.

And just hope that, one day…when your life is full of drama…and you confide in someone…that person…that friend…doesn’t turn around and…play OPERATOR!!!

BTW…to those of us involved in…you know what…this isn’t about you!!!

The Night He Came Close To ALMOST Sleeping Out… August 1, 2008

8:15…My friend called me last evening and asked if my youngest son could sleep over. He was already there…bathed and in bed watching t.v with them so…sure, why not!

8:30…I get my crochet purse that I’m working on, grab the phone…just in case…and sit in my bed. The big kids are running around the house being morons and imbeciles. But, since I don’t have to keep on eye on the 4 y/o…I’m going to crochet.

8:45…Through the chaos in my house, I hear voices on my front porch. I go to investigate…because that’s the kind of chick I am…NOSY…and it is MY front porch.

8:46…I see my son and my friends husband…on MY front porch. So, being the nice Mommy I am…I open the front door…despite the fact that he is supposed to be having a sleep over so…he shouldn’t even be here…on MY front porch!

Him: Mommy…I had a sleepover.

Me: Oh yeah? Did you sleep?

Him: No. I watched t.v.

Him again: Mommy…next time, I think I’ll stay a little longer, OK?

Me: Sure. Maybe next time, you’ll stay for 2 hours!!

OK, so, in his defense…he’s only slept out twice. One time when he was an infant…and that was disastrous. And another time a couple of years ago…which wasn’t so great either.

I think it’s because he needs his lovey. And, the problem with that is…his lovey is STILL my left arm…which is still attached to my body.

Apparently, in order for him to actually sleep out…I’ll have to be packed in his sleepover bag!!
