People on tv were eating Chinese food, now we are having Chinese for dinner.
So, I love Dirty Martinis and you need olive juice for those but I am by no means able to supply Mr. Grey face with enough olive juice for his extra olives.
Don’t get me wrong, I love all of the time I get to spend with my kids but on a day when all they do is argue and bicker all morning long, I find myself counting down the minutes until naptime. This is my time to eat my lunch in peace and prepare for the craziness of the afternoon after naps.
My husband had a work dinner this evening at a fancy Italian place downtown. The kids and I spoke with him before they went to bed and he said he was bringing something home from the restaurant for me, I was hoping for chocolate cake, my favorite. When he arrived home I unwrapped the bag and it was… a canoli. Well, this was not the correct order. Apparently the waiter was trying to sell my husband on the canoli but he knows what I like and had a 10 minute convo with the waiter about this fact. Well, I guess the lesson is always check your to go order before leaving. PS I tried the canoli and did not like it, the cream was good but also had nuts and marichino cherries, very odd combo. Disappointing, to say the least. So I had chocolate on the brain and grabbed a handful (maybe 2) of m&ms.
If this wasn’t specifically made for Tumblr, I don’t know what is. I could definitely relax a little coloring in this coloring book.

I can provide wine and of course witty banter. There is so much stuff, ranging in 5 different sizes (gaining weight, losing weight, having babies, etc). I am awful at this stuff. I get overwhelmed very easily. Ugh!

While watching Sesame Street just now, Mother Goose was trying to rhyme the word luck. The girl, remember she’s only 4, starts listing words, cluck, duck, f**k, stuck, etc. I had to give a little chuckle. She doesn’t know what she said, I just let it go.
Eric Idle! So my husband and I love Monty Python. Years ago, when Spamalot had it’s soft Broadway opening in Chicago, I surprised Matt with tickets. I bought the tickets not realizing it was opening night.
We sent to the show and I made sure to go to the bathroom before the show but the backstage door was right outside of the ladies restroom.
Eric Idle walked out right when I was in line so I met hon very briefly.
When I was done I found my husband an he was very excited to tell me that he had met Eric Idle!
It was a great night all around.
That was the show with David Hyde Pierce, Tim Curry, and Hank Azaria, amazing.
Again, my husband thinks I’m nuts. I’m tearing up (crying) during “Imagine” in the closing ceremony. He said, “he’s been dead for 30 years.”
I don’t care, I love this stuff!
