Seriously, what is wrong with me.
I spent the weekend in a prolonged series of naps, with some good ol' fashioned sleep thrown in.
Yesterday I came home from work, eventually fed the kids (because there is some stupid legal requirement here to do that) and napped on the couch for a couple of hours. Then made my way up to bed.
Fast-forward to lunch hour in my office...face down...dead to the world. I even did a couple of those "Whoa, I'm falling of a cliff!" motions which means I'm seriously tired. And now am also the proud owner of a mish-mash of lines on my right cheek from the hoodie I used as a crumpled up pillow. Special.
No...not pregnant. Not even a chance. Hubby took care of that possibility about 8.5 years ago right after son was born.
"Yessir doc, that will be one c-section for the missus...and a snip here and a snip there for me. Put it on our tab."
I don't think any man has ever gone to the "chopping block" quite so willingly. I think that was the week following the "fuchsia can of paint meets two year old daughter in the basement" incident.
Wall paint + toddler + TV/electronics = Vasectomy.
One day remind me to tell you about how the vasectomy went...because it makes me giggle.

Words of 'wisdom' from the Rummy One (and various people I've stolen from)
I'd kill for a Nobel Peace Prize.
Some people are like slinkys; they serve no useful purpose, but they do make you smile when they tumble down the stairs.
When I was a kid we had a sandbox. Actually it was a quicksand box. I was an only child...eventually.
It's a mistake to think you can solve any major problems with just potatoes.
You know what I miss? I miss the old days, when I'd think up a sinister scheme for world domination and friends would show a little emotional support. I mean come on now....really.
Let me make one thing perfectly clear to you: I have absolutely no idea how this sentence I'm currently writing is going to finish. When and if it does, I can only hope it makes some kind of coherent ceramic pineapple vibraphone.
