Movie quote of the night death match.
In this corner...
"I understand you have underwear up your ass right now, but it beats the hell out of a shattered skull. Think about it."
vs.
"To be what? Someone who takes photographs of lutefisk to PROVE the nothingness of being? No wonder our son's so confused!"
I just miss having people who could just come over and chill. Not for an event or dinner parties or whatnot. Just come by and kick back for a while.
Yep, this. Megan Walker is probably the closest thing I have to this, but even those visits have to be planned because of the whole living in different cities thing.
I would be completely cranky if I didn't get to hang with Sparky and gorgeous (and brainy and extremely mellow) little K, and then MFNLaw! They overlapped by about 15 minutes. I believe when I finally walked into the lobby of my hotel, it was 1 AM. And that was with MFN giving me a ride back to my hotel! Yeah, we obviously hated each other.
I've never heard the second quote, Hec, what's it from?
LOVE!
Drugs have caused the headache to subside. I had a midnight snack pb&j with the SO, bless his sick heart, and he is now tucked in. Fire is going, Leverage has been watched (did I mention LOVE?), dog has been let out, in, and is sleeping. I am watching Slovakia play the Czech Republic (politics!). So the crank has receded for the nonce.
I am calling Slovakia for the gold, but odds are not on my side.
I would love to hang out with you sometime, Liese. Solve both our problems.
Hee, Wouldn`t it though? We`ll have to make it happen someday.
Yeah, we obviously hated each other.
Yup.
I am so sorry I had to leave! Next time, the DH is going to have to do the baby/dog pickups so I can stay out!
So, we had friends (dad and 3 daughters) stopping to spend the night last night on the drive from New Orleans to Washington. The dad said they'd come between 5 and 6. I was working, but mr. flea planned to go out for dinner with the dads and kids and have a nice little visit, brief though it might be, since we have a school/work day today and they'd need to leave to get home today (10+ hour drive).
They rolled up at 10:15pm. Needless to say my kids were asleep, and this morning we got up quietly and left the house at 7:30, so the kids didn't get to see each other at all. I know stuff happens on the road, but he didn't leave NO until noon (it's 550-600 miles). So I'm a little annoyed that I get to feel like the bad guy for making everyone go to school/work this morning, and sad that the kids got all excited to see the girls and didn't get to.
