Thankful Thursday..With a Twist

Brought to you exclusively by Dual Mom on
The Daily Dribbles


I started a post about Lost but I'll save that for another day (I know, you're breathless with anticipation right?) This thankful thing from Daily Dribbles actually requires sarcasm, and hey, I'm all about the sarcasm. So without further ado, things I'm thankful for.

To SWSNBN (She Who Shall Not Be Named), for coming into my life via EX and forcing me to contend with your inability to realize that your wants and needs (when it comes to my kids) do not supercede mine, thank you very much.

To the bank, for actually approving my ludicrous request for a personal loan therby perpetuating my sadomasochist attempts to drive myself into debt for the REST of my life..... thank you very much.

To Boyfriend, for whining about the fact that all my boys want for xmas is video games. Fuck off, they are teenage boys. Your whining...not so attractive.....thank you very much.

To Boyfriend, for leaving his pile of receipts on top of my fridge, for the 6 millionth time. For the 6 millionth time...put them in your goddamn wallet because you know I will throw them out after you leave.....thank you very much.

To the kids, for changing their chistmas wish list 15 days before Christmas. You get that I'm going to kill you right? Thank you very much......

To the city maintenance crew, for your absolutely wonderful fucking job of clearing the sidewalks. No sense in being too motivated, is there? Thank you very much....

To coworker, for the wonderful peanut butter fudge recipe. It's so great that I'm able to whip up an entire batch of delicious fudge in 20 minutes, which I'm then forced to eat because it's there...and we all know fudge goes bad, right? Thank you very much...


To Nygard, for putting this jacket on sale (30% off) 2 weeks before Christmas and leaving me bawling like a big suck arse in the middle of your store because there's no way I can justify spending this kind of money on myself right before Christmas, even though I have the perfect pair of red suede boots to go with the jacket. Thank you very much......

To the hottie twenty-something who flirted with me this morning as we walked into work....and made me feel as though I'm NOT a cow who should be put out to pasture....THANK YOU VERY MUCH (no sarcasm here at all). There are special places in heaven for guys like you. I'll be your Mrs. Robinson anyday. I'm in the groupwise email directory. Ummm sorry Boyfriend, I'll be good now (but I bet hottie wouldn't leave his receipts on top of the fridge).

Oh those are Great. What are Daily Dribbles?

I love when I get a random flirt from anyone younger than me. Makes me feel like I haven't hit the wall yet. :)

Over from Why Mom Drinks Rum, I loved that you loved her for all the Fuck in her post, so I had to stop by.

Love the sarcastic thank yous. And I would love to read a post on LOST, not many people I know still follow the show. Unlike me who has been patiently waiting for the big season to come. And they had BETTER have ALOT of answers.

And even if Hottie DID leave the receipts on top of the fridge, he's HAWT..(and new) so you could forgive him the first couple million times right? Ok maybe not. But YAY for a hottie!

My daughter won't even give me a list. She's forcing me to do something my own mother has done to me - give her a gift bag full of random crap I got on clearance at the drug store for $1 each.

I'm fixed! Hooray, I know, now we can all sleep my blog is back and looks like a blog. Not a big shitty error message.

I am a bit of a comment junkie. And bitter that you can't comment...still not sure why... old posts maybe...
