Conversation of the Day

Me: "So, Meredith-- are you ever going to tell me about your crush?"

Meredith: "I'm not telling you who I have a crush on!"

Me: "Oh come on! I'm your aunt! This is the stuff you are supposed to tell me."

Meredith: "Uhm, yeah. You're my aunt with a Blog AND a Facebook page! I'm not telling you!"

A Major Part of My Childhood

You have no idea how happy I am to have found this..... AND when all of my nieces are here so I can continue to pass on the joy of the original Cabbage Patch Sing Along Album. (Someone posted all the songs on You Tube, but this is the only one I remembered verbatim as an adult....)

Things I Have Wondered Today

*Who decided that female jumpsuits should make a comeback?


(Follow Up Question)
*Why has that person not yet been shot?


*If a horse and a donkey can mate and make a mule, and a horse and a zebra can mate and make a zorse, then why can't a donkey and zebra mate and make a zonkey? And why isn't a mule called a honkey? (wait....I think I know the answer to that one....)



*If Senators and Congressmen don't actually write OR read the legislation they are voting on, then just who DOES do all that? Are 19 year old interns really ruling the US Congress?


*If I was sent back 100 years in time would I be totally useless? Do I need to learn a new home-ec type skill just in case?


*If I was sent back 400 years in time and managed to take back a big thing of Morton's Salt....just how rich would I be?


*Who was the first dude to decide he was thirsty enough to try drinking cow's milk?


*Who was the very first person to ever be named Emma? There had to be SOMEONE who was the first....


*Who decided that Owls were the next big thing in accessories? Or Squirrels? What is it with all of the woodland creatures lately?
