Wow, I remember when I used to actually blog. Before the onslaught of the Everyman’s blog on MySpace and Facebook. Not that I was any good at it, but I was better about the frequency of useless crap I’d post up here. YEP! You guessed it: ANOTHER OMG-I-Haven’t-Blogged-In-Forever post.

So, there you have it. I haven’t blogged in forever, blah blah blah blah I want to post more often, blah blah blah, <insert joke about how few readers I have> yadda yadda yadda. The probable reality is that I will likely not update for another huge stretch of time, but I really do want to try!!

So, what’s been going on in our lives for those of you who don’t know? Rhys is five freakin years old now! Insane! It seems like only yesterday that we were going through all the bullshit in the NICU, and then all the stupid ass therapy sessions. I say that because it was a pain, not because they aren’t professionals or anything. Those folks really were a godsend. But, again, so long ago… Looking at him now you’d not know he had all those issues. You clearly see all of my crazy on him, peppered with mom’s crazy too, but you’d dismiss it as normal and maybe mumble something about “poor kid”.

I still have a wonderful job at Cogswells Cogs ;) and am loving almost every minute of it. :) I’ve recently taken to ramping up my side businesses in the form of a second job since this economy is in the toilet. Boy, am I glad Obama passed that stimulus package. Can you imagine how bad it would be if he hadn’t? Whew. Thanks Mr. Obama, you rock like Chopin on tranqs.

And on that note, I’m gonna get back to work, and hopefully blog just a bit more often. :) Hope all is well out there in Happyland!

Kinda makes you want to do the robot…

So, I’m driving to work today, listening to You Look Nice Today (a journal of emotional hygeine), and I’m taking note of all the political bumper stickers. Let’s face it, putting a political bumper sticker on your car is kind of a douchy thing to do (hopes none of his friends are guilty of doing douchy things). Let me explain… Ok, perhaps douchy is not the right word. I think I just wanted to say douchy. More to my point it’s a dumb thing to do. … But, that’s not quite as colorful… Let’s explore.

First, nobody cares. Guess what, you aren’t swinging the vote with your bumper sticker. Most of them aren’t even entertaining! I mean, at least make it so the rest of us can get a laugh out of it. Something like, “Save the Drama for Obama!” or “I’m a Maverick, Bitches!” You know, something other than, “McCain ’08″… Wheee!

Second, 95% of you aren’t going to remove these stickers after the election, and THATS when it becomes a douchy thing to do. Now you are just driving around in an old car…. You know?

Ok, but, I digress… That was not the point I was trying to make. The point I was trying to make — which is more of an observation than a point — is when I looked at the Obama cars, they all looked like hippies! You know, the steroetypical-just-smoked-a-joint-hippie. Those cars also had a shotgun blast of other opinionated stickers on their cars too… All the McCain cars had intensely serious and focused looking people. But, not intense and focused like they were concentrated on being good drivers. It was more intense and focused like they had a body in the trunk. … Just a random morning observation for you guys…

Have a great Thursday!
