Every once in a while an ad comes up on Seattle's craigslist. Something like "Got moles? Rent my dog for $20, he will kill every one. How green is that?" I laugh every time, and I wonder if they get any takers. I love the "how green is that" ending too.

hee hee hee are you kidding? you'd be picketed for being such a mole hater! ha ha ha ha ha ha ha i could just see a bunch a goth/emo kids standing outside your house with "moles are people too" signs and having a big cry over how sad it is....

Oh that was too funny!!!

 

[ohiofarmgirl]

and you'll find yourself singing along.. its a catchy little ditty...

i keep wondering when Little Mo or Nicholas (grey kitties) will get to their 'teenanger' phase. when they do they will be met with lots of chores, the door taken off their bedroom, a strict dress code, and no internet privileges.

and they will never ever be allowed to shop at Hot Topix

;-)

me to niece: so... you're shopping at a chain store in the mall so you can be an individual?
niece: um YEAH!!!! aunt ohiofarmgirl, you're so lame
me: listen missy i drove you here
niece: yeah whatever.
<angry silence>
niece: can i have $20?
me: no
niece: its so unfair!!!

Hahahaha!

You should have seen the drama yesterday when my own lovely (most of the time) daughter couldn't go to Target b/c her room was not clean.

I kept telling myself "stay strong, don't show any weakness!" We are all back to sweetness today and her room is spotless. I won!

OK, I feel really old now. Thanks.

What is emo? I thought it was a large, ostrich-like bird....

 

[big brown horse]

Emo = emotional it is the new, old "goth"

 

[freemotion]

So they ADMIT that they are emotional? Like it is carefully planned and executed? Wow!

I used to get in trouble for NOT paying enough attention to what I wore. Also for stunts like threatening a neighbor with a phone call to the ASPCA and coming home with a badly neglected pony on a leadrope. Or riding home after dark because I didn't realize that if I watched the sunset from the top of the highest hill that it would be pitch dark at the bottom of the hill....

OK, I was a strange kid.
