Meeting in the Break Room

First item of business:

My husband wanted this for his birthday:
But I got him this, because...well, it was cheaper, folks.  And funnier.  To me.

Sorry to those who have already seen
my iPad joke...


This is a picture of my 6-year-old when he was younger in a wig.

He thought my little joke was funny, too, but I think I detected a bit of despair & sadness in his laughter. The joke really of went down the crapper when my 6-year-old ripped open this technological wonder to reveal it's true colors while chanting "iPad! iPad! iPad!" inside the party room of Macaroni Grill.


Second item of business:

I wanted to let all of you BLOGGAHS know that my friend, Copyboy, of the very funny "Not Worth Mentioning" website has started a new website with some others called Bloggerdise. Bloggerdise is a "free and easy way for bloggers and businesses to connect".  I may try to connect one of these days.  You should definitely check it out soon!  Click here fo mo info.



Third, and last, item of business:

Another friend of mine, Oilfield Trash who writes the funny Make Daddy A Sammich blog, gave me an award yesterday called "The LOL Award".  Thanks, TRASH!  (That was fun to say...)

I am supposed to tell you 7 things about myself you don't know and pass the award on to 7 other blogs.  I'll make this quick:

#1: I can sing "Mary Had A Little Lamb" many different ways, including country, heavy metal and old time Gospel, and often do.  This does not make my family happy.  So, when I sing this little tune, I sing it as loud as I can.
#2: I have lots of socks.
#3: I hate anything with lots of holes, like a tree that a woodpecker has torn up.  Ugh.  I'm going to be sick. Where's my Pepto Bismol?  Oh, it's right here in my Route 44 cup where I enjoy gulping it down daily.  Stupid me. 
#4: It's 9:14 a.m. and I'm letting my 2-year-old eat potato chips because he brought them to me while I was typing.  I need to go to time-out.
#5: I still have a poinsettia sitting on my kitchen counter.  It's pretty, but, HELLO, McFLY, it's not Christmas anymore.  Do I just end his life or let him keep spreading the Christmas cheer right through spring and summer?
#6: I love to play practical jokes on my husband but only when he knows I am going to play them.  This annoys him.  I like to be annoying.  For example, when he is looking out the driver's side window, I like to point my finger really close to his cheek and then say, "Hey, look over there!"  He knows that my finger is ready to jab him in the cheek, so he knocks it out of the way.  I will play this joke on him relentlessly during the trip until I finally get him.  Yeah, I don't know why I do that either.
#7: I am the Nap Nazi.  People like to laugh and say, "Yeah, Johnny Jingle Jangle Jungle, Jr. here gave up his nap when he was just 2 days old and, well, what could I do?"  My 2-year-old WILL take a nap, dagnabbit.  If you are physically around me when it is 1:00 p.m., you would probably fall under my nap spell as well.  I can get a real soothing "Mary Had a Little Lamb" going.

I'm passing this award to these 7 blogs that make me laugh!










MEETING ADJOURNED!!

At least you're letting L get fat instead of yourself. I just ate a cannoli, no joke. 10:23am.

Sock collector, really, Kel?? So is my husband. Do you have trouble letting go of the unmatched ones?

The iPad joke really is going to be funny forever.

And I'm honored for your award...but I still get control of the radio on our voyage.

Kristina P. said... [Reply]

I'm surprised the poinsettia is still alive!

Oilfield Trash said... [Reply]

Kelley, the picture of your "iPad" is exactly the reason the award was given to you.

Thanks for keeping up the funneh.

Congrats.

Sue said... [Reply]

Oh. My. Word. I KNEW I always liked you. Case in point: I once sang "Mary had a Little Lamb" Kurt Cobain style in a bar before a moderately sized crowd. Because my friends said it couldn't be done. But WE know better, now, don't we?

Monkey Man said... [Reply]

We kept a poinsettia halfway through last summer until we discovered that it had become the home of SUGAR ANTS!!! Little six legged freaks walking all about our counters, GAH! Tossed that baby in a heart beat. This year at Christmas time when we would see at poinsettia, we would yell "ANT FARM!"

MultitaskMumma said... [Reply]

ipad is Hilarious!!!
Poinsettia should be kept.. (I thought this and then read above and now I think you should kill it because if it has Sugar Ant that's gross and I'm itchy all over)

Funky Mama Bird said... [Reply]

Love the iPad - freaking hilarious.

Yvonne said... [Reply]

HA! You deserve that award, you're hilarious! The i-pad picture is priceless!

Carol said... [Reply]

Snort at the ipad! I'm sure he'll love it! I would plant that poinsetta assuming the earth isn't frozen in TX.

XLMIC said... [Reply]

love the pad ;-) my husband was saying he wanted one for valentine's day.

And the poinsettia... plant it outside... unless you are where it is cold and that would just kill it. They grow outside where it's warm and can even become as big as a freaking TREE. For real. I've seen it.

okay... off to come up with 7 litle-known facts about myself...

DaddysFishBowl said... [Reply]

Man oh man, that iPad joke is just dead wrong!!! I'm asking for one this yr for my bday, I'll be sure to keep my wife away from your site! lol

Colleen said... [Reply]

So, I'm thinking you're not big on swiss cheese, huh?

And what will you do with the pointsettia. I generally just kill them, but that's the natural end of any plant that dares to come into my house. What would I do if they kept living?? I do not know.

Rochelle@AFamilyofLooneys said... [Reply]

iPad LMBO.

Lightning Bug's Butt said... [Reply]

I had a comment, then saw my name and got so excited I forgot....

Ah, nice joke about the iPad!

Clare said... [Reply]

I laughed out loud at the iPad! My hubs is getting the same thing for Valentine's Day.

Aren't I the sweetest wife?

You totally deserve the LOL award. Because I LOL at you all the time!

kmcaffee said... [Reply]

I think we may have some kind of warped mind link thing happening because when I think of an iPad, THAT is what I think of! So freakin' funny! Oh and I say "Hello, McFly...." way too much! Great list and congrats! :)

Kimberly said... [Reply]

Wish I had known you (the Nap Nazi) about 12 years ago. Now they're 14 and 11 and a bit old for naps, but the day before we got the big boy bed was the last nap day of my life.

Saimi said... [Reply]

That ipad is HILARIOUS!!! Awesome, awesome, awesome!!! Oh boy! More funny blogs to look up...One can never have enough laughs!!

Congrats on your award!!

Cheeseboy said... [Reply]

The trash always knows how to give it up.

The iPad joke is funny, although I would have been pissed.

Nobody gives me awards any more. I think it's because I don't accept them.

Copyboy said... [Reply]

ipads? Gospel Lambs? Sleeping Nazis? You take my giggles to so many places. BTW...thanks for the shout out.

Joey @ Big Teeth and Clouds said... [Reply]

I am honored to receive this award. Does it come with my very own iPad? I don't need it right now, but someday soon I'll be having my iPeriod.

Ha!

I'm still not tired of my own iPad joke.

Kristen said... [Reply]

Mary had a little (horse, guitar, bible, disco ball, dayglo shirt, grill, weed, bootie, bed because she is a good girl taking her nap) Yep, I can see that song in ALL different kinds of styles....

Pamtastic said... [Reply]

I just took down my Christmas tree a few days ago..and I felt ok about it, so go ahead and embrace the poinsettia. It's all good...

Booyah's Momma said... [Reply]

I love it! Much, much better, and far less addicting than the real iPad. And most women would probably like to give maxi pads the Angry Bird anyway. See? It comes with its own apps.

And thank you for the award! Means a lot coming from you, Kelley!

Lazarus said... [Reply]

I liked so much about this post (I'm a first-timer but I'll be back) but I loved the part about you playing practical jokes on your hubby. My girlfriend and I do the same. One of my recent faves: With an air horn from the dollar store, I hide in various places in the house and blast away just as she's approaching. Great for cardiac stimulation!

The Flying Chalupa said... [Reply]

Listen, Nap Nazi, if you could pay a little visit to my house, that'd be swell. I'd owe you one. Maybe I'd organize your sock drawer for you.
Congrats on the award!

Rawknrobyn.blogspot.com said... [Reply]

I love that your son was shouting "iPad" at the Macaroni Grill.
Keep smiling, Kelley.

MommaKiss said... [Reply]

I wanna iPad. And that wig.

Deborah said... [Reply]

#2 I have lots of sock too! We're just like sistahs!

#7 My kids are ancient, but I was the NAP NAZI as well! They WOULD lay down for a rest cuz MOMMA needed a rest. Ya

The iPad is killing me. You are so adorable!

Megan (Best of Fates) said... [Reply]

I love you like the French love to protest.

And that's A LOT.

Melinda said... [Reply]

The iPad is just pure genius. I wasn't aware I already owned multiple units, so I'm just all giddy with excitement now.

I let my 5 year old eat ice cream at 9:30am if she is home sick and I have work to do, so I feel better that I'm not alone. I figure it is a milk product and the cone is sort of like cereal..so isn't that a variation of breakfast...on some planet?

Wendi said... [Reply]

At least your iPad has wings so he has a place to put his coffee mug.

Sandra said... [Reply]

I'm 42 years old and I still nap. I admit it. And yes, people make fun of me too when they invite me for lunch, and I'm like, "I can't. That's my nap time."

Meg said... [Reply]

Your version of the Ipad was great. I just bought a big bag of Ipads. I wonder if my neighbors need any? I like when everyone can use it!
I have no problems with chips at 9 a.m. I mean isn't the potato a vegetable? My kids never napped and now they are 11 and 6 so it will never happen, dammit!
