Quote for the day

Jeff: “I need you to focus!”

Alyssa: “I’m trying, but I think my cat’s peeing in my closet!”

From MTV’s MADE: Episode 22

How come nobody told me???

I had no idea you could basically major in home economics! I just thought of it when I was in the shower; “hey, I should go to one of those schools where you can basically ‘build-a-major’ and take things that would help me run my household… or I should suggest it to CalBapatist or someone and suggest that Martha Steward come teach… lol” So I looked it up, and, bam! There it was: General Home Economics, more commonly known in our political correct society as “family and consumer sciences.” In short; Home Ec. Sweet! And guess what? Point Loma Nazarene University (which happens to be about two freeway exits from my apartment) offers just that! A major in Family and Consumer Sciences. Awesome. So. Totally. Awesome. I’m gonna have a piece of paper that says I’m super mom. Yes! lol Martha better watch her back… = P

And hey, if something ever happens to Bruce (God forbid), and I have to pay the bills, I could be a VERY high-paid nanny. Which would be AWESOME! lol. Now that I think about it, Martha Stewart AND the Super Nanny better watch out… heeheehee.

Fun, Fun, Fun

Bruce was in the hospital all night Sunday. We went to the emergency room after he’d been having a severe asthma attack for almost 24 hours. We got there at about 5:30. We left at 3 am. All kinds of fun. I hate hospitals. And now we owe Sharp Hospital more money. This whole life thing is killing me. I can’t afford it. But Bruce is okay. Several steroids, oxygen tanks and breathing treatments later. Geez.

Kids are so amazing

That’s it. lol. They just are. I love kids. I don’t think I’ll ever understand why people don’t like kids. They grow, they love, they’re loud, they’re happy, and excited…. hahaha. They’re annoying as all heck, but really, aren’t we all? lol. They have no inhibitions. They hope beyond reason… and they all have a tendency to say the darndest things. lol. Children are amazing. They’re the future. They’re God’s ultimate gift to the world. The Bible says a man measures his wealth by his wife and children, and that a woman’s glory is her children. I can’t stand people who don’t like kids. Can you be a little more self-absorbed? The world put up with your stinky, screaming butt for all these years, so go hug someone small and sticky! 

And for those of you addicted to your dogs and cats… the Duggars are having baby #18 (I think they’re going to run out of “j” names… and violins… hahaha)! And I think their son Josh and his wife are having a baby too… That’s just my opinion…. = ) I’m dang jealous of that woman. 20 kids! Yeow! lol. Omg. I might ADOPT twenty kids, but to quote Michelle Duggar,”I think it’s called ‘labor’ for  a reason..” heeheehee. Then again, Bruce has expressed interest in having his own baseball team….

Cirque du Soleil

I love Cirque. I want to go see ALL of the ones that are still playing! lol. Okay, except I don’t think I’d want to go see Zumanity. That’s a bit much for my tastes. But everything else, I definitely wish I could go see. Look them up; they’re amazing! And sooo expensive! lol

Oh Geez

I just baked a bazillion cookies… and now I’m about to make spicy black bean soup. Merry Christmas world; I’m officially freaking Betty Crocker…. = P

Church

We took Courtney and Eve to church with us at Gateway this weekend and it was fun. We like Gateway a lot, and Courtney liked Sunday School… and Eve sulked all day. lol. Whatever. It was funny, though, because the Sunday School teachers thought I was Courtney’s mom and they were telling me about AWANA and Children’s Choir and everything else under the sun… lol. They kept telling me, “we loved her” “she was a doll” “she’s so cute” lol. I’m like, “thanks, I know. I’m a fantastic parent…. I had her when I was like,  10…” lol. Seriously. I would have had to have her when I was 11. Just turned 11. lol. Oh, well. It was fun. I hope she comes again. 

That being said, we are moving to El Cajon when we leave here. Our church is there, and we just discovered that there’s a gym down the street from the church. Which, of course, sealed the deal. lol. Yay. And we like El Cajon better anyway. Its not so “big city.” The hospital is newer (and the maternity doesn’t have 1980’s pink and purple floral), and closer. And we’re a lot closer to stores we actually shop at and restaurants we can actually afford to eat at. So off we go! Yay.

Best of Craigslist

I love my husband dearly… but this is hilarious… and partially true regardless of how perfect your hubby is. lol.

My husband said it’s him or the dog? So, it was a tough choice, but the dog only takes up part of the bed, and he doesn’t steal the covers, so I’m keeping the dog. 
Husband has tendency to wander, likes to sleep all day, will play with his balls, isn’t house trained, but will beg to go out. Needs fenced yard without grass to mow, a home with plentiful food (favorite food is pizza) and drink (loves beer). Gets along well with other dogs, doesn’t much care for cats or children. Has little redeeming value, but he is cute. Comes from a long line of hunters, would love to be your hunting companion. Knows Sit, Heel, Stay, and Down. Doesn’t always do them? But he knows those commands, don’t let him try to convince you he doesn’t. Is current on all shots, pretty healthy, has had his teeth cleaned recently, and is NOT NEUTERED. I’d be happy to help pay for the neutering. 
Too good home, fee negotiable, I know I can’t get anywhere near what I’ve got in him back. Comes with 49′ers T shirt, large flat screen tv, and a big truck but only the T shirt is paid for. 
Serious inquiries only!

I miss acro

It’s weird. I think, mostly, my body is just bored. I was watching acro videos that kids who went to Worlds this year posted and I seriously felt the need to do a handstand in the computer lab. I miss stretching and flipping and balancing and throwing and catching. I think I have restless bones. lol. Before I quit, sometimes, when I was really tired, my body would subconsciously react to my mind going over routines. I’d be sitting in the car or laying in bed, and I’d think about a certain skill and muscles in the body part that would have been doing the skill would jerk. lol It was so weird. But I think my muscles are bored. lol. They’re like, “dude, all you do is walk now. LAME.” lol. I’m starting to understand why Michael Rodriguez (the base in the video below) is like, 25 and keeps coming back and coming back… lol. There IS no life after acro. You either do, you coach, or you die. lol. (and I suck at coaching when I’m not doing)

*sigh*

Getting evicted…

My mother is going to get us evicted. Seriously. Management told us. We are really scared. This is really bad.
