This seemed like a good day for some random stuff that I've heard, read, maybe completely made up or been thinking about lately....possibly interesting...or possibly just a minor blip in a day full of blips!

1) Before you start reading this and jump all over for me for not sticking up for women...please...understand that I am TOTALLY in favour of women being treated as equals to the directionally challenged, ass scratching, remote hogging species we call MEN but REALLY...WHY DOES MICHELLE WIE INSIST ON CONTINUALLY TRYING TO COMPETE AGAINST THE MEN? I could possibly understand it if she won EVERY women's tournament she went in but she doesn't. Don't get me wrong, she's a fabulous golfer but at this point in her career it seems to me that the women she plays against are challenging enough for her.

2) I'm sure everyone's sick of me talking about Webkinz but I wanted to point out this one last piece of information that I discovered and I'm not sure if all you owners are aware of. Did you know that your Webkinz expires one year from the date you register it and at that time you have to renew? Guess how you renew...with a new Webkinz!! I was shocked when I found that out! If I'm understanding it correctly the expiry date is from the most recent one you register. For example, Emily had one at Christmas so the expiry date would have been this December but she recently added a new one to the same account so her new expiry will now be next May or June. Quite the money grab!!

3) Why does my son insist on saving EVERY empty toilet paper roll that he can get his hands on??? He says he neeeeeeds them, he's going to make things with them! Hmmm...how interesting...then why do I find them...EVERYWHERE...on his bookshelf, in the living room, his backpack and the garage! If he's squirrelling them away in case of some sort of pandemic that involves a cylindrical cardboard shortage or if he's planning on becoming a world renowned architect then fine...but as long as I keep finding them all over the place, they are going to mysteriously disappear. I've resorted to 4 a.m. roll changes so he doesn't catch me and scream at me! You know, the kind of scream that makes the neighbours look away and whisper.
Yes, I know, mother of the year....again!

4) I've been letting my hair grow longer lately and I had a revelation today...the longer my hair gets...THE WIDER MY ASS GETS!! Seriously, I've been gradually gaining weight...little by little...with absolutely NO will power to change it. IT'S MY HAIR..I'm sure of it!! You know, Samson lost his strength when his hair was cut, well I'm pretty sure I'll lose weight and regain all my will power if I get mine cut! At the rate I'm going, I'll need a pixie cut!!!

5) I managed to use the word "ass" twice (now three times!) in this post...hmmm...odd...not a favourite word of mine but today...necessary! I'll try to keep it clean next time! Hee hee!!

Have a great weekend everyone!!
