No fair. Teens get to have sex habits. And Im single and celibate. Not fair at all.

I'm married, and I can't say I have sex "habits"

Well, then I shouldn't feel left out then huh.

Not at all. And when you do have an opportunity, you don't have to worry about if the kids are sleeping.

Hey don't envy the teens: they aren't having good sex.

Just unprotected misinformed sex.

So, at least your habits, or lack therof trump the teens' any day!!

ok. I need some funny stories or some motivational words or some inspiring quotes.

I'm still writing my paper- today it will be DONE!!! And I don't want to talk about sex or pregnancy- I'm still smarting a little, although I'm getting better and I haven't cried once today!!

Sooooo. My favorite stories are funny things that kids say.

Here's one about my 5 year old niece... (A little background is necessary. They aren't technically my nieces; their mom was a foster kid we knew, and my little sis was friends with her in high school. She got pregnant at 18 with Alicea, and 2 years later with Ariyana, and they all lived with my mom for quite some time, and we've helped raise the girls... That said- their mom is kinda ghetto).

Anyway- Mark and I were taking the girls to the mall and out to eat, and we had to stop and get gas. So, Alicea asks me, "What's mark doing?" And I say, "Pumping gas."

She replies, "Oh... Pumping sounds like a bad word. One that little kids aren't apposed to say."

I'm thinking, what bad word sounds like pumping? Humping? Certainly she doesn't know that word- although, with her mother, it wouldn't shock me. So I HAVE to ask, "What bad word does it sound like?"

To which my 5 year old nice replies, "Pimpin."

Now, I know it's sort of not funny, because she shouldn't know that word, but oh my gosh I could hardly contain myself. Pimpin.

 

[Tigger&Belle]

That is bad! I hope that my 6yo doesn't know that word!

Jake thinks that "bad words" are words such as idiot, stupid, etc. I'm not going to correct him, either.

 

[ashjohnson80]

If one one my 5-year-old nieces said "Pimpin" I would probably pee my pants!

 

[beckmrk04]

I tell you what- these girls are about the best form of entertainment I have found!!! They crack me up. Their new word du jour is "hoochie mama." GROAN.

I had to tell them that Aunt Becky doesn't like that word and neither does Mickey Mouse. I don't want them saying that stuff while I'm in WDW!!! People don't know they aren't my kids.

But really, it DOES crack me up.

 

[beckmrk04]

I'm suffering from writer's block. Bad bad bad. I have GOT to get this stupid paper done tonight! One less stressor in my life cannot be a bad thing at this point.

A girl at work is always giving me grief over my purse. Says it is "ridiculously expensive." She talks about my purse so much that when a group of us (she's not included) were out I asked one to watch my purse, and she said, "You mean your 'Very Expensive Purse'?" So, now we all refer to it that way when she isn't within earshot. The girl drives everyone nuts.

So, I was planning to get supremely expensive purses for Spring/Summer, just to tick her off...but they aren't my style this year. I like conservative, or cute. But this year's are more fashionable. I'm soo not a fashionista!!

So, now I know I'm going to hear about how my purse isn't expensive, like the last one. And I'm hoping to keep my mouth shut. (I usually can, as long as you don't put me behind a keyboard!!!)

This is completely OT, but since this is the OT thread.... I'm going to see the Strokes!

I love concerts!

 

[beckmrk04]

hehehe. My SIL loves expensive purses. Me- I don't get it. I mean, I guess I would if I had the $$$ laying around. On the other hand, I always buy classic black purses, or a nice chic leather bag- if I was going to drop loads of money on a purse, it would be a classic leather bag from Coach or something- but my SIL buys the most outrageous expensive purses that don't match anything. I guess that's more my issue. I'm not a trendy person- I'm very classic when it comes to stuff like that and I wouldn't spend a dime on anything that won't go with EVERYTHING. (generally).

my dog is driving my flippin crazy. She is soooo needy and attention hungry right now, and I keep telling her I have to work on my paper I can't play catch- go watch tv, and she's not listening.

See, that's the thing. I won't go buy an expensive purse just to do it. I buy what I like. If it is $20, all the better! But I found a Dooney & Bourke purse (very conservative, but adorable all at once!) that I fell in love with and shelled out about $240 for it. Which, if you compare it to TRULY expensive stuff, isn't much at all. (I hope you get this, cause DH never does. )

But this girl just wouldn't stop.

The ones I got for summer are cheaper...I liked them better. But I'll hear about it!!!!


ASH - Who are the Strokes? I mean, what do they sing?

 

[beckmrk04]

I wouldn't pay $240 for a purse, just because purses aren't my thing, but I get it. I am willing to spend more $$ on things I really really like and that are QUALITY and will last a long time: but timelessness is key for me.

OT (of course) but I finally broke down and went to buy the $90 swimsuit, but- it was on sale for 67 and I had a 25% off coupon, soooo, I only paid $62 after tax and shipping!! GO ME!!

Mine comes home with some doozies from Pre-K. Unfortunately, he always springs these new words on me out in public. And when you tell him it is not a nice word, and that he cannot say it, he tries to argue and says that whatever kid taught it to him says its a good word!

thats ok wait till he gets to 13 and starts making up substitute words for the cuss words he uses all the time when you arent around, and then expects you notto know what hes saying.
