State Fair photo booth,
originally uploaded by mommymommy.
We took the kids to the State Fair Saturday night, and we ate and ate and ate and drank. Arrogant Bastard Ale (yeah can you believe it!) 2 corndogs, 1 roasted corn on the cob with tons of hotsauce and chili powder, 1 cheese burger for the kids, 1 blooming onion, 1 deep fried twinky, cotton candy, and lots of kiddy rides. Fair bliss.
My hormones are clearly normalizing and my period is coming to a end. How do I know? Well I just dropped and spilled a 50 gallon Costco jug of orange juice on my freshly mopped floor and I didn’t drop the f#*% bomb a few hundred times. I also must be totally falsly high and happy on coffee that I actually did some serious dance moves to The Wiggles.
You know when you are watching Americas Funniest Home Videos and they show those videos of parents taping their kids because they did something so awful to themselves or their home and you just gasp and say “oh my god.” Well that was us last night except we didn’t video it. I cried twice.
There is also one long crayon line the lengh of the side of the house around the corner.
First words this morning.
Ella: (crying) “I want my own tv.”
Me: Irritated look on face
Ella: (still crying) “I want my own Cinderella tv.”
Me: Irritated.
Lazzarini’s philosophy?
“Give Davis a double shot of the spraying,” she said.
Hillbilly Lazzarini is living up to the Woodland vs. Davis stereotypes.
Im crossing my fingers that Ella will get into the State Preschool program. But since we make to much money (sarcastic tone here), she will probably get bumped to the waiting list. Even though we make to much money, I still can’t afford to put her in preschool. I am so baffeled by why the preschool for all initiative didn’t pass. I understand that if it goes over budget it would all fall on our tax shoulders to pay for it. But the homeschoolers who were so against it I just didn’t understand. All I heard from them is “they can’t force my child to go to public school” when in fact it was your choice if you wanted them to attend or not. They were not forcing anything on you. Looks like I am going to have to step up to the homeschool plate for the next year or two and start going to a few homeschooling stores and picking up a few curriculums for my kids until they can get into public kindergarten. Heavens to murgatroid we don’t want them failing and being held back in the 1st grade.
Mark does not think they are so great, I think it is brilliant. Here is our debate via ichat.
me:g diapers
what looks complicated about them?
mark:you have to put the diaper in a lining, then when you change it, you have to peal the foam out of the pouch, swish it around with a stick and then flush the wraper, foam and clean the stick. Dan and I agree, too complicated.

me:i saw the video.
mark:you don’t think it’s too much trouble?
me:well i don’t think you need to go on swishing right away. i thought putting in the lining looked fast and easy.
mark:The lining isn’t that bad.
It’s just like the cloth diaper pants.
But the shit stick. Fuck that.
me:but less puffy
mark:Yeah and better for the environment.
me:don’t say shit stick
mark:It’s a shit stick.
me:its a shit swish
mark:You have to swirl the shit around the terlet..
And then what?
It doesn’t show her cleaning the shit stick, cause she’s not actually flushing a soiled diaper.
In the real world there will be lots of shit on the shit swish.
Where do you clean that?
me:up your butt
mark:In the sink where you brush your teeth?
The one problem all environmentalists fail to take on is the fact that no one wants to touch smell or look at shit. That’s why we wad up diapers and throw them away.
Until we can beam them to Iraq, we’ll be landfilling them
me:your on fire shit swish!
i gotta change ellas shit, atleast its in a princess pull up. talk about gorgeous shit!
mark:Sweet.
