Random Tuesday Thoughts ~ Jerkface
Keelyat The Un-Mom started Random Tuesday Thoughts and we thought we would join in the fun. Stop by her blog and check out her awesome randomness.

Our host was down all day yesterday so I’m using that excuse for our poor traffic stats. We had 8 people stop by our site and one of them was our Mom. Well, we’re back up this morning and I’m hopeful our traffic will increase because 8 is really sucky.
I’m trying to stop calling my dog Jerkface so often. I say it all the time, like when he pees on the floor because it’s thundering out, or when he stands up when I’m trying to step over him and he almost trips me, or when he’s just generally annoying me. I’m afraid that J-Man is going to say it at school some time and his teacher will ask where he’s heard that and he’ll say “My mom” and of course she’ll think it’s what I call him. Then I’ll have to explain to her that it’s what I call the dog, but she won’t believe me. So I’m cutting back on the Jerkface. Do you think there’s a 12 step program for people who call their dogs Jerkface?
I survived J-Man’s birthday party on Sunday. All the kids were good and it seemed to go smoothly. It was a gorgeous day and we were able to have the party outside, which was awesome. I’ve been waiting for J-Man to ask this question and finally last night at bed time he did. “If we were having the party outside why did you make me clean my room?” I told him that it might’ve rained then we would have been inside, plus if anyone needed the bathroom they’d see his room. Almost all the girls needed to use the bathroom. One girl said she needed the bathroom which set off a chain reaction of little girls needing to go to the bathroom. Then they had to check out his room. It’s funny that not one boy needed to use the bathroom at all during the party. I guess it’s just a girl thing.

I have exactly 7 1/2 days left of work before my surgery. Every one of my co-workers keeps coming up to me and asking the same question, “What are they going to do when you’re gone, are they going to hire someone or what?” Gee thanks people. First of all, not my problem to deal with, Second of all, isn’t that rude to ask if they’re replacing me before I’m even gone?
I brought the boys to the beach the other day when it was actually not raining, which for us is rare lately. My youngest said, “but Mom there’s no bathroom’s here, what are we suppose to do?” I didn’t care for bathroom’s because I wouldn’t pay $15.00 to park in the State Park, I told him to just go in the ocean. He looked at me with a disgusted look and said, “really? Is that okay? Won’t I get it on me?” I explained to him that it would be okay for him to do it and nobody would know. Well, I was wrong because at the point he was doing it, he had his legs wide open so he wouldn’t get any on him, and he was staring down watching to make sure. Gee, I wonder what that kid is doing?
On Friday I took our youngest to see Night at the Museum, this was his opinion, “it was good, but it had too much kissing in it”.
Last week he went on a field trip to a Planetarium, guess what his favorite thing at the museum was……..the soap dispenser in the bathroom! You just put your hands under there and it squirts on your hands automatically! This is also the boy who’s favorite thing at the Boston Museum of Science was the Escalator. Doesn’t take much for him.
If you want to feel better about yourself, just watch A & E on Monday nights. I’m just saying
