Meme It Like You Stole It

I AM: way too mentally taxed to write an actual blog post.

I SAID: that I would update Sunday when we got home. It appears that I lied.

I WANT: a real vacation, that involves a sandy beach and a fellow named Miguel bringing me Margaritas and exotic tropical fruits.

I WISH: I could figure it all out. Or at least think that I have.

I HATE: reality television.

I MISS: Italian Beef sandwiches from Marge's (a restaurant I used to frequent when I lived in the Chicagoland area).

I FEAR: spiders. I was bitten by a brown recluse as a child, 'twas not pretty, and it left me a serious arachnophobe.

I HEAR: Billie crunching her food and Ben watching Food Network while Libby sleeps.

I WONDER: how we were ever happy before we had Libby.

I REGRET: not keeping in touch with more people that I have known in other places.

I AM NOT: satisfied with the status quo.

I DANCE: with Libby in the living room, to Otis Redding, Bobby Darin, and Mama Cass.

I SING: to Libby when she's fussy.

I AM NOT ALWAYS: able to be objective.

I MADE: brownies for dessert tonight.

I WRITE: senseless drivel.

I CONFUSE: Howard Dean and John McCain by sight. Please don't ask me why. For some reason they look alike to me.

I NEED: to do some laundry so I don't have to wrap Libby in a dishtowel tomorrow.

I SHOULD: get off my butt and do some housework.

I START: craft projects that I never have time to finish.

I FINISH: my taxes by the middle of February every year.

I BELIEVE: that there are some problems that can never be solved, never be talked through, conflicts that can never be resolved, and that knowledge makes it hard for me to breathe sometimes when I think of the issues in our own family.

I KNOW: the secrets of making good yeast breads (and no, I do NOT use a bread machine).

I CAN: learn anything if I can find an internet tutorial on the subject. If I could find a "how to" for neurosurgery, I'd be the best darn brain doctor this side of the Mississippi.

I CAN'T: find a medical school that will give me an M.D. based on an online course (fascists).

I SEE: trees of green, red roses too. I see them bloom, for me and you, and I think to myself, what a wonderful world...

I BLOG: about my family, and our lives, when we're not busy living them.

I READ: not nearly as much as I'd like to.

I AM EXCITED BY: Deal or No Deal. Oh, how I scream at the TV with ill regard to others in the house. It's a disease, I swear.

IT PISSES ME OFF: when I am limited by the folks here in Podunk.

I FIND: that the older I get, the more tragically unhip I become.

I LIKE: pina coladas, and gettin' caught in the rain.

I LOVE: my husband and my daughter, more than they will ever know.
