Weigh In
02/24/12: 129.4
03/02/12: 128.3
03/12/12: 127.9
04/01/12: 131.4
04/09/12: 128.2
04/20/12: 128.4
04/27/12: 129.0
I almost didn’t step on the scale today. It is that week of the month when my good buddy TOM (hear the sarcasm?) wrecks havoc on my appetite & I get a bit of a bloat going on. What's worse is this is the worst day of the entire month. But, I stepped on it anyway because I know come next Friday it will be waaaay down. I expect I’ll be seeing something very close to 127.0 by then.

Now, excuse me while I have diarrhea of the keyboard. I’m in quite a strange mood today. I feel as if I could talk someone’s ear off…but there is no one here to talk to. I’m all alone at work; except for Mr Owner-man. He’s here but he’s on the other side of this big building & I won’t have to talk but a couple of sentences to him today on the phone, thank goodness.

Regular Show
Those of you with kids ages 7ish-13ish, have you seen this completely idiotic show on Cartoon Network? The characters are so stupid. How stupid are they? They make Spongebob & Patrick look smart.
Hubby & son have been watching it for several weeks. When it is on, I don’t pay attention because their voices & the language they use are that of teenagers or young adults who act like they don’t have a brain, which drives me crazy. BUT, hubby & son are laughing about it all the time & telling jokes that I don’t get. Sooooo, I broke down & watched an episode. Since then I’ve seen a couple more & I’m looking forward to seeing ones I haven’t seen yet.
Dude, do me a solid (that’s how they talk). Don’t get me wrong, this show is completely stupid but that is what is so funny about it. The characters do stupid things that we, as normal people, would never even think of.
I almost feel guilty for wasting your time discussing such a stupid topic. That is how stupid it is!
Why do I find it funny when Skips the white gorilla is doing meditation by a candle & Mordecai (I had to look up that spelling, does that mean I’m stupid?) & Rigby call his answering machine & chant over & over:
We know your home, Skips.
Pick up the phone, Skips.
We know your home, Skips.
Pick up the phone, Skips.
We know your home, Skips.
Pick up the phone, Skips.
Why does that crack me up? IT IS STUPID…and funny.

On to other stupidness…
The 2012 NFL Draft
I bet you were all glued to your TV’s last night watching the Draft. What? You missed it? For shame!
Well, let me fill you in. Usually, the teams take ALL of their allotted time (I think it’s like 10 minutes) to announce their choice so the draft takes forever. However, this year they didn’t do that. It was bam, bam, bam fast.
So, it gets to pick 8 which is the Miami Dolphins. This has been hubby’s team since he was a little boy. Why does he love them? I don’t know. He is ALWAYS mad at them. They never do anything right whether it is draft day or game day. And they stink!
For the last several weeks hubby has been telling me they should pick this guy Tannehill. Hubby wants to know what I think.
I think that since he wants this guy they’ll pick someone else just to make him mad.
They always make him mad, why would this time be any different?
So, the Dolphins are on the clock & hubby is yelling at the TV things like “Don’t do anything stupid” “Take Tannehill” and “If you don’t take Tennehill I’m never speaking to you again”. He actually said that. Who was that supposed to be directed to? The Dolphin’s staff? Like he’s EVER talked to them, LOL.
So, what did the Dolphins do? They picked Tannehill!
Hubby is hilarious! He said he was worried when the Commissioner was walking up to the podium to make the announcement because the look on his face said he was going to say something surprising. ????? The Commissioner has the same look no matter if he’s trimming his toenails or opening Christmas presents. Hubby is so weird.
This morning, hubs was still on cloud 9. In the shower he was belting out songs he made up about Tannehill. Yep, he’s a weirdo!

Then, tonight, he & son are going to a draft party. Don’t YOU think the 2nd & 3rd rounds of the draft are worth throwing a party over? Well, the men in my family do. They are getting together & my aunt is getting kicked out of her house for the night. SO, us women folk are getting together for dinner. We’ve been making our plans through emails & my aunt attached this Little Rascals link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v
=wBIC8JTQMMQ
Cracks me up!
Now, our men are by far women haters, but my mom & aunts do take a special secret trip every year that the men are not allowed to attend. Heck, even I’m not allowed. I’m just a daughter/niece & you’ve got to be a sister. I know, not fair! But it is their rules. I think that’s why I find the clip so funny. He-Man Woman Haters, LOL!

I had a hard time deciding between naming this blog He-Man Woman Haters or Regular Show. Since everything in my life is pretty ridiculous – no, STUPID, I went with Regular Show, LOL.

Can I say one more thing? I shouldn’t, but I'm going to. I’ve been biting my tongue for too long.
**I was feeling guilty about the ugly things I said here, so I deleted it!**
Ok, I’ll get off my soapbox now.

Oh, there is one more thing. I know I said that already but this really is the last one.
Boomer had is first good haircut yesterday. He looks sooooo cute. Here he is a few months ago. Since he’s black, you can’t see him very good but you can kind of see how scruffy & scraggily he was.


Here he is after his appt with the groomer:


The camera flash kinda made his eye on the left look funky, but let me tell you, he looks so good. Much better than the hack job hubby & daughter gave him. I was afraid he'd come back looking silly or bald but he looks great. And he's still as ornery as ever.

Ok, I'm done! I know I put a bunch of stupid stuff in here & your probably thinking about me & my blog the same way I think of Mr Owner-man & his books, LOL. Shut up already!

    Funny stuff! I used to watch SpongeBob with the kids. Lots of adult funnies in there. Not "adult" like that, but you know stuff I thought was funny because it was stoopid.

    Kids shows can be the funniest (and fun) humor.... I do love phineaus and ferb... Sometimes my girls will watch cartoon network... but right now they like reality TV on TLC... or food network which I can watch too... in fact today they were watching a wedding show... And they were getting a kick out of the dresses... When it was time for dinner they had to DVR the rest of the show... Probably a difference between having girls and boys...

That scale will be down next week... I just know it...

Sorry not a football fan but I am a major hockey fan... we are in the middle of the playoffs go Flyers!!!!!

Your dog is really really cute.... The picture makes me think that I need to get my dog groomed...

Hope you have a super awesome weekend and I will talk to you soon...xxJ

    Sometimes we just need something stupid in our lives to make us laugh!

Your dog is sooooo cute. I have a black one too and they are so hard to photograph!

Keep up the good work

    Okay, I know it's weird, but yes, I did watch the draft last night. I will only admit to watching til my team picked though! (Seahawks) I've been waiting for them to get a good QB in the draft for YEARS...they didn't. I don't talk to them like your hubby but I did give a good sigh and a muttered "Losers." Your party sounds way more fun than rounds 2 or 3 though. That he-man clip was so cute! I'm totally out of touch with the kids shows these days. My friend sometimes makes spongebob references that I don't get until she explains them to me. You never know what's going to tickle your funny bone!
Boomer looks soooo cute!! I love his little floppy ears! They did a great job on him!

    Good one!!!

Hubby started watching the draft and telling me who each team picked, like I cared, NOT.

Boomer is adorable, he's a keeper.

And thank goodness we are out of the cartoon watching years. My daughter had Barney, at least he taught them something.

    Hahaha! So glad to know my life isn't the only strangely chaotic one including random kids tv shows. Our obsession in this house is Phinneas and Ferb. We still seriously limit CN as my daycare is open so many hours (no tv while they are here) and my youngest is still only 4.
TOM is a fact of live, but at least he is predictible for most of us, and leaves us usually with a lower number on the scale when he goes.
Have a great day!!!

    You are so funny. I love hearing all the little details. And for the record, I HATE spongebob. DH lets my daughter watch it and I've said a million times how annoying that show is. This makes me not look forward to those tween years!
Super cute pics!!!

    Amy, you are just too cute. You appear to be having a manic high...that is what I call it when I am in super-chat mode. But you go ahead, cause I love listening to (errr, reading) your chatty blogs.
I have kids in the age range you mentioned but I am not familiar with the Regular Show. I guess I need to pay better attention. All my kids have TV's in their rooms (don't judge) and I am guilty of not knowing exactly what it is they are watching in there all the time (again, no judging). (And I know you wouldn't judge, I just put that out there for whoever else might be reading this response). I guess I need to check this show out. I wouldn't let my kids watch Spongebob for the longest time when they were younger, but now I think it is the funniest show on the planet and we watch it (repeatedly) every chance we get.
I have no comment on the football portion, as that is out of my area. I am an NBA Basketball nut instead. I'll talk BBALL all day long.
On to the boss....what kind of books does he write??? Where can I take a look at this brilliant work?
And finally, your dog is so stinking cute! (And so is your kid!)

    TOM does wreak havoc. You'll be down next Friday for sure.
No kids for me and I'm not sure if my husband watches that or not. He does watch quite a bit of Cartoon network, though.
Hmmm....football....none for me, thank you.
Have good women's get together :-)
LOL about the book.
Boomer is looking so adorable.

    I wonder how many calories I just burnt reading your busy blog...I am so exhausted I need to take a nap!!! LOL

I have never seen nor heard of Regular show, I looked it up and it doesn't ring a bell...maybe my two kids are smarter than you and yours?? Mwahahahaha... emoticon

Or maybe Canada just doesn't play that kinda crap?? Nawwwww.....I think my kids are smart!

Way to go on keeping your weight in check, I look forward to the plummet next week!

Boomer is a cutie...so is your daughter :)

I wonder if I can leave a comment as long as your blog?? emoticon probably should save that for my own...

Love ya, Amy!

    It's fun to get a glimpse into your life; I'm glad you took the time to share your thoughts.
I'd say unsubscribe from Mr. Owner-Man. That way you don't have to see his book stuff on your feed. Some people just need to get over themselves.

I think your next weigh in will be good too. I was 128-129 last week, and I'm 126 today, TOM having left me finally!
